Three Unions Connected, Saber Technique Minor Accomplishment

Hearing this.

Qin Jiu's brow furrowed even tighter.

"What does he want to do?"

"Patriarch, please forgive me."

Qin Xuanzhou lowered his head and said, "They don't want to return to the Qin family with this, but rather to send this Fire Kylin Pearl, asking us to protect Qin Jingchuan when the Mystic Firmament Sect needs it. That's why I wanted to report to you, otherwise, I would have refused immediately."

"Bring the item here, let me see."

Qin Jiu's face was expressionless.

He immediately took the Fire Kylin Pearl brought by the other party.

This pearl was the size of a pigeon's egg, warm to the touch, like agate all over, with a swirling crimson-orange color. After rubbing it for a moment, he asked again, "Besides Qin Jingchuan, who else did they arrange to go with?"

"Those four spots..."

"All three families arranged a child with good talent, and Qin Jingzheng's family alone took two spots."

"Let's do it as a normal transaction."

After listening, Qin Jiu tossed the Fire Kylin Pearl in his hand and said, "However, you must first go to the Inner Mansion and ask my mother. If she is willing to accept this pearl, then accept it. If she is unwilling, send it back to them."

"Yes."

Qin Xuanzhou's expression shifted.

He took the Fire Kylin Pearl and hurried away from the East Wing.

Watching his departing back.

Qin Jiu was lost in thought for a moment.

Then, holding the Azure Blade, he continued to practice his Stance Training, clearing his meridians with Internal Energy while performing his blade techniques.

The blade light moved with his will.

Swiftly stirring up sharp whistling sounds in the courtyard.

As time passed.

A large area of cold light and crisscrossing blade shadows was stirred up.

Gradually overlapping.

Until at a certain moment, the afterimages of the long blade completely disappeared, and a heart-shaking killing intent suddenly erupted, blowing the accumulated snow on the ground into the air.

"Buzz."

A dull roar.

Suddenly exploded from within his body.

"All internal and external three unions are clear, this is the Tyrant Blade's minor success..."

Qin Jiu's expression was slightly stunned.

Then, he couldn't help but show joy.

These past few days.

He had managed to connect most of the meridians outside the eight major meridians, and his martial arts realm had already approached the great success of the Three Refinements. Coupled with the minor success of his blade techniques at this moment, his strength had once again greatly increased. If he were to encounter Baili Ce again, he might be able to kill him with a single blade.

"This is truly an unexpected joy."

But it wasn't long before.

Qin Jiu's joyful mood was broken.

The door to the East Wing.

A figure rushed in with urgency to report.

"Patriarch..."

"Someone from the Divine Fist Sect has arrived, and the two esteemed elders from the Mystic Firmament Sect are currently entertaining them in the reception hall."

"They found us this quickly?"

Qin Jiu frowned.

He immediately drew his blade and walked out of the East Wing, striding towards the reception hall.

Meanwhile, inside the hall.

Five figures were in a standoff.

Two of them were Qi Yuan and Xu Jinghua. The other three figures, the one in the lead held a silver spear with a fierce brow, and the two figures behind her were exuding an aura unique to the Internal Strengthening level.

"Brother Qi, you and I have fought side by side before."

"We have no intention of making enemies of your sect. It's just that one of our outer sect stewards and two disciples arrived in Songshan County ahead of us, and they all died within a single day. I hope Brother Qi can understand my predicament and allow me to question the person in charge of the Qin family."

"Oh, right."

"That outer sect steward is also a clansman of my junior sister Baili. She has only reached the Great Accomplishment of Three Refinements but has cultivated Mystic Power. I fear it won't take ten years for her to reach Willow Tendon, or even higher levels. If you two could accommodate us now, my junior sister will surely remember your kindness."

"Moreover, that Qin Jiu..."

"After all, he hasn't registered with your sect yet. Letting him come with us to cooperate with the investigation wouldn't be violating your sect's authority."

"What do you two think?"

The person speaking.

Was not the armored woman.

But a handsome young man standing behind her.

Qi Yuan immediately shook his head upon hearing this.

"I don't think much of it."

"The matters you speak of have nothing to do with my junior brother. Please leave this place."

"Nothing to do with him?!"

At this moment.

The woman who had not spoken before opened her mouth.

Her words carried killing intent.

"In this city, there are only a handful of forces that could kill my uncle. The four Great Accomplishment Three Refinements martial artists of the Qin family. On the day of the incident, they had contact with the Han family and the Qin family. However, on the night of the next day, they all died, including the Han family from the Inner City."

"The Qin family, also one of the major families in the Inner City, remained unharmed."

"Whether it was them or not."

"The Qin family must give this young lady an explanation."

"Presumptuous!"

Qi Yuan was furious and said coldly, "Let alone you who have only cultivated Mystic Power, even a direct disciple of the Divine Fist Sect would not dare to offend my sect's authority. What are you, to dare demand an explanation from my sect's core disciple?"

"You..."

The woman became furious.

And the young man beside her, his expression changed instantly.

He even knew his junior sister's temperament.

So he quickly said, "Junior sister, don't be angry. Senior brother will handle this for you."

"Brother Qi, don't speak too harshly. That person, in the final analysis, isn't considered a disciple of the Mystic Firmament Sect yet..."

"Thump, thump."

At this moment.

Qin Jiu walked into the hall with his saber.

Several gazes immediately converged on him.

"The main person has arrived."

The young man's face lit up, and he quickly spoke to Qin Jiu, "You must be the head of the Qin family."

"I am an inner disciple of the Divine Fist Sect."

"I have come to the Qin family this time to investigate the death of Baili Ce."

"Could you please allow the people of the Qin Mansion to go to Tongfu Inn to cooperate with our investigation? If this matter truly has nothing to do with the Qin family, we will offer an apology..."

"This matter has nothing to do with my Qin family."

Qin Jiu shook his head lightly.

Baili Ce and the three of Ruan Chen were killed by him, and it truly had nothing to do with the Qin family.

He pondered, "There's no need to go out."

"If you have any questions, you can ask them here. I will tell you everything I know."

"We have several witnesses from that night."

The young man said, his gaze sweeping over the armored woman, and sighed, "But now they are all incapacitated and need..."

"Senior brother, why waste so many words."

Suddenly.

The woman interrupted the young man and looked coldly at Qin Jiu.

"Someone from the Qin family appeared near Tongfu Inn that night. I, Baili Su, have come here with evidence, so I brought my men. You and the other members of the Qin family had better go now and let the witness see you."

"I don't want to repeat myself."

"Since you have nothing to ask, please leave."

Qin Jiu's expression was unreadable.

Deep down, he remained skeptical of this person's words.

Because that night, every living soul who had watched the battle at Tongfu Inn had been disposed of by Wang Yue and Qin Xuanzhou.

How could there still be any so-called witnesses?

As he pondered this.

Qi Yuan also rebuked them with a cold face.

The expressions of those three turned incredibly ugly, and after a standoff lasting several minutes, they finally turned and left the main hall.

"Junior Sister, don't be anxious."

"Senior Brother will think of another way regarding the Qin Family."

"We will certainly be able to make them cooperate with you..."

In front of the Qin Mansion gate.

Baili Su heard this and stopped in her tracks, her eyes filled with chill as she said, "A mere small family, why go to such trouble? They are not worthy of me, Baili Su, wasting my efforts. You two Senior Brothers wait here for a moment."
