Thanks To My Unlimited Investment, I'm Admired By All Races - Xianxia

Upon hearing the servant’s words, Xiao Huan’s face lit up with excitement.

She joyfully exclaimed, "Miss, did you hear that? The eldest young master of the Li family has arrived!"

"Once the young master arrives, let’s see if that Chen brat dares to act so arrogantly!"

Even though Qin Xueyi and Li Xun hadn’t officially married yet, in Xiao Huan’s eyes, the matter was as good as settled.

Many servants in the Qin family were already secretly referring to Li Xun as the "young master-in-law."

However, Xiao Huan was too excited to notice that Qin Xueyi had suddenly frozen in shock beside her.

"How is this possible?" Qin Xueyi muttered to herself, astonished.

This didn’t make sense!

If she remembered correctly, Li Xun wasn’t supposed to arrive in Luoye City for another seven days.

Only one night had passed, so how could he be here already?

Luoye City was tens of thousands of miles away from Profound Sun Sect. Even for someone as powerful as Li Xun, or even a sect elder, it would be impossible to travel that distance in such a short time.

’Is this because of my rebirth?’ Qin Xueyi wondered.

She had spent the entire night thinking about her rebirth.

She had already expected that, as someone who was reborn, many things would change due to her actions.

With her involvement, the future could become completely unpredictable.

What she hadn’t expected, though, was that such a significant change would happen so quickly.

Li Xun, who was supposed to arrive seven days later, had appeared after just one night.

Inside the hall, upon hearing the servant’s announcement, Qin Tianhai stood up abruptly, his face filled with joy.

He shouted, "Oh? Nephew Li is here already? Quickly, invite him in!"

"Yes!" the servant replied swiftly before turning to leave.

At that moment, Chen Youshang, who was seated calmly, had a face so dark it could drip water.

Earlier, when he addressed Qin Tianhai as "Uncle," Qin Tianhai had been evasive. But now, even before the eldest son of the Li family had entered, Qin Tianhai was already addressing him as "Nephew."

It was clear which relationship was closer.

’You ungrateful old fool!’ Chen Youshang’s eyes narrowed, and a cold glint flickered within them as he glared at the overjoyed Qin Tianhai.

"Young Master, what should we do now?" the black-robed elder standing behind Chen Youshang transmitted his voice.

"No rush. Let’s wait and see. As long as I’m here today, the Qin family and the Li family will not form an alliance!" Chen Youshang replied through voice transmission.

He was already at the early stage of the Spirit Meridian Realm. Even though he had advanced through the use of pills, his cultivation was genuine. In a short while, he would make sure that young master of the Li family made a fool of himself.

Then, he would spread the word across Luoye City.

Qin Tianhai had a reputation to maintain. Could he really afford to lose face like that?

Even if Qin Tianhai was determined to form an alliance with the Li family, he needed to remember—this was Luoye City!

Not only was this the Qin family’s home base, but it was also the Chen family’s territory.

While Li Xun might have made it into Luoye City, leaving would be a different matter. After all, this wasn’t Tianyuan City!

If Li Xun died here, how could Qin Tianhai form any alliances?

In fact, the Li family might even blame the Qin family for the young master’s death.

And when that time came...

Heh!

A cold smile appeared on Chen Youshang’s lips as he casually lifted the tea in front of him, sipping it leisurely while anticipating the show about to unfold.

To his surprise, Qin Tianhai, who had been elated, suddenly stopped and called out, "Someone, bring out our finest tea!"

"Hm?"

Chen Youshang, who was holding his tea, froze for a moment.

He glanced at the tea in his hand, his expression turning sour, as if he were constipated.

Moments later, led by a servant, two figures—an elder and a youth—appeared in the courtyard.

The one leading the way was a young man dressed in white.

He stood tall and graceful, his hair cascading naturally down his back like a waterfall.

His eyes sparkled like stars, and a gentle smile graced his lips, making him appear approachable and pleasant to all.

When they reached the front of the hall, the young man bowed slightly and spoke with a clear voice, "Junior Li Xun greets Uncle Qin."

"Excellent!" Qin Tianhai exclaimed in admiration.

He strode quickly out of the hall, saying, "As expected from Li Wuyou’s son. You’re truly an outstanding young man!"

"Uncle Qin, you flatter me," Li Xun replied with a smile.

"Nephew, you must be tired from your journey. Come inside and rest for a while. I’ve just prepared the finest spirit tea for you to taste. If you like it, I can send some home with you when you leave."

As he spoke, Qin Tianhai stepped forward, took hold of Li Xun’s arm, and led him into the hall.

Once inside, Li Xun casually glanced around.

When his eyes landed on Chen Youshang, he merely paused for a moment before losing interest.

In his mind, Chen Youshang was probably just another junior of the Qin family.

Since Qin Tianhai didn’t introduce them, Li Xun also didn’t take the initiative to greet him.

At that moment, Li Xun was more interested in finding his ’investment target’.

He scanned the hall but didn’t find anything out of the ordinary, so he retracted his gaze.

Given that they were in the main hall of the Qin family, it wouldn’t be appropriate to spread his spiritual sense around carelessly.

Using spiritual sense to probe without permission could easily be seen as disrespectful and lead to misunderstandings.

’I guess I’ll have to search around at night. Hopefully, I can find some clues,’ Li Xun thought to himself.

The group sat down, and servants brought spirit tea to each of them. Li Xun took a small sip, then set his cup aside.

"Nephew, how has your father been lately?" Qin Tianhai asked, starting the conversation.

"My father is doing well. Thank you for your concern, Uncle Qin. When I return, I’ll be sure to pass along your regards," Li Xun replied with a smile.

"Good, good," Qin Tianhai said, feeling deeply gratified.

The more he looked at Li Xun, the more satisfied he became.

Not only was the young man handsome and dashing, but he was also well-mannered, always knowing how to act appropriately.

Such a son-in-law was a rare find!

Moreover, Li Xun’s cultivation had already reached the late stages of the Spirit Meridian Realm. From Qin Tianhai’s sharp eyes, it was clear that Li Xun had a solid foundation.

He was worlds apart from someone like Chen Youshang, who had reached his level through excessive pill consumption.

"Nephew, since you’re already here, why not stay in Luoye City for a few days? It would give me the opportunity to show you some hospitality," Qin Tianhai suggested warmly.

"Thank you, Uncle Qin. I’ll be troubling you then," Li Xun nodded slightly, and then glanced at his servant, indicating that it was time to bring up their true purpose for the visit. He smiled and said, "To be honest, Uncle Qin, there’s another reason I’m here today."

"Oh?" Qin Tianhai’s eyes brightened.

He knew that the main topic was finally about to come up. But he couldn’t appear too eager.

After all, he was the one marrying off his daughter. It wouldn’t do for him to seem too hasty.

So, Qin Tianhai stroked his beard and casually asked, "What might that be?"

"I came today because—" Li Xun began.

But before he could finish, a cold snort interrupted him from the side.
