Ximen Bingyue raised her head and saw Qin Xuan's bloodshot eyes. She could not help but feel sorry for him as she comforted him softly, "It's all in the past now. We will take good care of Father."
"I will think of a way to let Master cultivate again." Qin Xuan's expression gradually turned serious. Master could not afford to delay this matter and had to settle it as soon as possible.
"Cultivate again?"
Ximen Bingyue and Xuanyuan Potian's heads were trembling. Their eyes were filled with disbelief as they looked at Qin Xuan. Father, could he still cultivate again?
"Is that true?" Ximen Bingyue asked with a trembling voice. If she could really help her father cultivate, she was willing to pay any price.
"It's true." Qin Xuan nodded his head seriously and said, "However, I will need some time to complete this task as soon as possible. However, do not tell Master about this matter for the time being, lest it cause his mood to fluctuate."
"Understood." The two of them nodded. Their hearts were filled with joy. They naturally believed Qin Xuan's words. If Qin Xuan said that there was hope, then there must be.
"Where is Ruoxi now?" Qin Xuan suddenly asked the two of them, he noticed that Ruoxi wasn't at Mayor Manor.
Ximen Bingyue lowered her head slightly and said softly, "She's gone to cultivate. We don't even know where she is now."
"She went to cultivate alone?" Qin Xuan's expression immediately changed. There were many people in the Nine Regions who knew of Ruoxi's relationship with him. If they were to be targeted by his enemies, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"At that time, we also tried to dissuade her, but she was unwilling to listen and insisted on cultivating. It was truly impossible to stop her." Ximen Bingyue sighed. Qin Xuan's death had dealt too much of a blow to her. Therefore, she desperately wanted to raise her cultivation to take revenge for Qin Xuan.
"Why is she so stupid?" A bitter smile appeared on Qin Xuan's face. He felt his heart ache but also felt helpless.
However, there weren't many people in the Nine Regions who knew that he was still alive, so Ruoxi wasn't in too much danger yet. However, he had to find her as soon as possible.
"I'll go find her." Feng Qing looked at Qin Xuan and said.
"Then I'll be troubling Big Brother Feng." Wu Tie nodded. With Big Brother Feng's cultivation level, it was relatively easy to find someone. Moreover, it was inconvenient for him to show his face during this period of time.
In the following period of time, Qin Xuan stayed in the Wu Steel Manor and led a simple and quiet life. He didn't cultivate and only quietly accompanied Ximen Guyan.
Of course, Ximen Guyan didn't know that Qin Xuan had returned.
On this day, Xuanyuan Potian went to find Qin Xuan. With a slightly hurried expression, he said, "There's something important that has happened recently."
"What is it?" Qin Xuan asked with a puzzled expression.
"Xiao City holds a banquet and invites all the forces of the Nine Regions over. Although they nominally want to resolve the grudge with the great power of the Nine Regions, I wonder what their real intentions are." Xuanyuan Potian frowned.
"Xiao City?" Qin Xuan was stunned as he had never heard of Xiao City.
Looking at the reaction on Qin Xuan's face, Xuanyuan Potian seemed to have realized something. He explained, "Xiao City is a city that was built by the Xiao in the Nine Regions and located in the western region of the Middle Profound Region. There are many forces from the other realms within Xiao City with many Saints overseeing it."
"From the strength level, Xiao City is indeed the number one city in the Nine Regions!"
"A city built by the Xiao?" Qin Xuan's eyes immediately revealed a strange light. He didn't expect that Xiao would be so generous as to build a city in the Nine Regions. It could be seen that Xiao had already started to lay down the foundations for the future.
It was just as Xuanyuan Potian had said, there were many Boundless Sea powers gathering in Xiao City, and those that could send people to the Nine Regions were naturally all super powers. This meant that the number of Saints in Xiao City might be quite a few, and even in the cities under the Eight Great Temples's command, there wouldn't be that many Saints present.
Of course, Xiao City could not be compared to the local cities in the Nine Regions. From a certain perspective, Xiao City was not a city, but an alliance between the many powers in the Boundless Sea.
A city like this was naturally incomparably powerful.
"You said earlier that Xiao City would hold a banquet and invite all the great power of the Nine Territory to go?" Qin Xuan asked again with a thoughtful expression.
"Exactly." Xuanyuan Potian answered.
"When did the news spread out?" Qin Xuan asked again.
"Just a while ago, news came from the Xuanyuan Palace. I just found out about this matter."
Hearing Xuanyuan Potian's words, an unfathomable look flashed across Qin Xuan's eyes. Not long after he returned to the Nine Regions, such news came from Xiao City. Was this a coincidence, or was it intentional?
"When is the banquet?" Qin Xuan asked again.
"Three days later, there should be many great power of the Nine Regions attending the gathering." Xuanyuan Potian said.
Although the Nine Regions and the Boundless Sea were enemies, this was the territory of the Nine Regions. If they didn't even attend a banquet hosted by the Xiao, it would seem that the various powers in the Nine Regions were too petty, and would instead be looked down upon by the Boundless Sea.
"Alright, I'll follow you to Xiao City then." He also wanted to see what the Xiao City, which was made up of the forces of Boundless Sea, was like.
… ….
Three days later, in the Xiao City of the Central Xuan Region, countless people from the Nine Regions gathered, causing the newly built city to become particularly lively.
But in reality, everyone knew that this so-called liveliness was just a facade. The Nine Regions and Boundless Sea were rivals after all, but neither side was willing to go out of their way to start a war. If they were to start a war, they would have to pay an extremely heavy price.
Outside Xiao City, a group of figures descended from the sky. These people were from the Xuanyuan Palace, and Xuanyuan Potian was among them.
This white-clothed man was obviously a disguise by Qin Xuan.
Xiao City has many forces in the Boundless Sea, so it was naturally impossible for him to appear as Qin Xuan. Once his identity was discovered, the Boundless Sea would definitely receive the news and send people to capture him.
As for the people from Xuanyuan Palace, they didn't know who Xuanyuan Potian was, so Xuanyuan Potian just called him his friend.
"Enter the city." Although they had come to attend the banquet, they would not send their saints here.
The reason they did so was to inform the various powers in the Boundless Sea that they would send their men over, but they were only here to make an appearance.
The group of people entered Xiao City and entered a restaurant a moment later. Currently, there were quite a few people in the restaurant, and most of them were from other powers that had come to attend the banquet.
"The people from the Xuanyuan Palace have arrived." Some glanced at the people from the Xuanyuan Palace and spoke up. The others also looked in that direction, their eyes revealing astonishment.
"The Xuanyuan Palace has become much more powerful than before. It is said that Xuanyuan Potian, the strongest younger generation in the Xuanyuan Palace, stepped into the Emperor Realm not long ago. His talent is extraordinary and he inherited the Xuanyuan Palace's martial arts."
"In the past, Xuanyuan Potian's talent could indeed be considered outstanding. However, the situation is different now. Many foreign forces have taken root in the Nine Regions and many monsters have appeared. They are even more outstanding than Xuanyuan Potian."
As the sound of his voice faded, the countenances of the spectators all darkened.
Before this, they didn't understand much about the other realms, but as more and more people from the other realms appeared before them, they also knew a few things.
Although they didn't want to admit it, they knew it was true.
Moreover, in a short period of time, this was impossible to change.
The difference was too great.
Just from the city of Xiao City itself, one could tell how powerful the experts from the other realms were. If they were to mobilize an army to attack them, how would the Nine Regions be able to defend themselves?
"It's said that another person was arrested a few days ago. The person who tried to assassinate Di Family failed and was instead captured by Di Family." At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded out, breaking the silence.
"Di Family?" Qin Xuan couldn't help but look at that person with curiosity. Someone had assassinated Di Family?
"Since the people from the other realms came to the Nine Regions, some conflicts have broken out. Many people from the Nine Regions hated the people from the other realms, and thus, most of them were assassins of Di Family."
Xuanyuan Potian looked forward and secretly explained to Qin Xuan.
"So that's how it is." Qin Xuan suddenly understood. It was probably because Di Family's tactics were too powerful during the Universal City Banquet, which resulted in many people's hatred towards Di Family to be the strongest in the Nine Regions.
"Di Family was ambushed and annihilated by many forces in the past, resulting in heavy losses. However, after that, many experts and several Saints were dispatched, the powers of the Nine Mystical Palace didn't continue their attacks." Xuanyuan Potian added.1
"Which power did they capture?" Someone asked curiously.
"I don't know, but I heard it was a woman. She seemed to have a deep grudge with Di Family, and in one night, she assassinated a lot of Di Family's people. After that, a powerful expert from Di Family captured her. The man from before spoke with a hint of regret in his voice.
It was truly admirable that a woman could actually do such an upright and mighty action. She was truly heroic and unyielding.
"Woman!"
In Qin Xuan's mind, there seemed to be a clap of thunder as his eyes glazed over, as if he had lost his soul.
An extremely bad idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
Xuanyuan Potian's countenance also underwent a drastic change. He then turned his gaze onto Qin Xuan as he transmitted his voice, "Maybe it wasn't her."
Qin Xuan seemed to have not heard Xuanyuan Potian's words, and his eyes became misty. Inwardly, he kept telling himself that there shouldn't be such a coincidence. Ruoxi should be cultivating somewhere right now, so how could she possibly go and assassinate Di Family?
She wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
"Where does Di Family live?" Qin Xuan immediately asked Xuanyuan Potian.
"Di Family is in the Ice and Snow Region. However, since Xiao City is hosting a banquet today, they should be sending people over." Xuanyuan Potian comforted her softly, "You'll know when you ask. Calm down first, don't worry too much."
Qin Xuan nodded, but his heart was unable to calm down. If that person was really Ruoxi, what should he do?
