Chapter 1134 A Mere Son-in-Law
"Junior sister, do you know this young man?"

Gu Xiao suddenly spoke up, interrupting their conversation, "Why don't you introduce me to your brother?"

As soon as these words came out, Qin Qing's expression suddenly became ugly, and the strange mood just now was blown away.

"What does my conversation with my wife have to do with you? Who are you to introduce me?"

Amber snorted in annoyance, then filled Old Man Chen's glass with wine: "Madam, aren't you reading at home? Why are you out?"

Lady?

Gu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly sneered.

"So you are the useless son-in-law, Mr. Chen. How dare you drink with such a person?"

He shook his head and said with a very regretful tone: "I was wondering what the world-famous swordsman was like thirty years ago, but now I see that I am greatly disappointed."

While speaking, Gu Xiao stared at Amber, the contempt in his eyes visible to the naked eye.

"This is my senior brother. You go back first. I will go back later."

Qin Qing suddenly spoke, seemingly cold and heartless, but in fact he was afraid that Amber could not bear the humiliation and acted impulsively, which might cause her to suffer a great loss.

Moreover, she didn't want to fall out with her senior brother directly.

Gu Xiao's purpose was too obvious. Although Qin Qing had not experienced much in the martial arts world, he was very smart. He had been influenced by his surroundings since he was a child, so he was most sensitive to such dirty thoughts.

The two of them chattered back and forth, without considering Amber and Old Man Chen's thoughts at all.

Actually, that’s true. After all, they are Wu Lingyao’s disciples and will be treated as guests of honor wherever they go.

Gu Xiao, in particular, had never suffered any setbacks since he entered the world of martial arts, so his ideas gradually began to change, and he took it for granted that the world should revolve around him.

In comparison, Qin Qing is better, but still very limited.

This is also a very proud woman, and even if she means well she can behave in a way that is unacceptable.

"Old man, are you very important?"

Amber ignored Qin Qing and didn't even look at Gu Xiao. She just ignored him. "Come on, I have some wine. Tell me your story?"

"Can you still drink this?"

Old man Chen shook his head slightly: "Young people nowadays are too ignorant of etiquette. Just because they stick two green onions in a pig's nose, they really think they are an elephant? It's really disgusting!"

Gu Xiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

His real purpose in coming here to find someone was not to meet some martial arts senior like Qin Qing did, but to step on the other party to further enhance his reputation.

Now that the relationship has fallen out, there's no need to hide it anymore.

"If you are a truly virtuous senior, I will respect you. But you are an old man sitting at the same table with my son-in-law. What qualifications do you have for me to look up to you?"

Gu Xiao sneered and said, "You haven't used a knife for so many years, I'm afraid you don't even know how to kill people, right?"

When Qin Qing heard him say this, his expression suddenly became bad, but because his master Wu Lingyao was still suppressing him, he couldn't say anything.

However, in her heart, she had already completely classified this senior brother as someone with whom she should not have close friendships.

In fact, the two of them didn't spend much time together, otherwise Qin Qing would have seen through Gu Xiao's character long ago.

"You want to draw your sword on me?"

Old man Chen, who could also be called Chen Yixing, rolled his eyes and looked at the arrogant young man in front of him. "For the sake of your master, I won't kill you. Go ahead."

"Haha, you are so arrogant even at your age!"

Gu Xiao suddenly restrained his arrogant look: "Since I want to learn from you, how can I be so careless? How about this, I will advertise in the Jianghu, on the fifteenth of next month, on Canglan Mountain outside Kyoto, you and I will compete to see who is better?"

"Since you like being seen as a failure so much, I will do as you wish."

Chen Yixing said calmly, with the air of a master.

"Goodbye then!"

After Gu Xiao finished speaking, he looked at Amber deeply, then turned around and walked out. When he passed by Qin Qing, he stopped for the sake of his steps.

"Junior sister, aren't you leaving?"

Qin Qing looked embarrassed, but finally, for Wu Lingyao's sake, he followed her out in silence.

The inn became quiet again.

The waiter and the shopkeeper who had been hiding heaved a sigh of relief when they saw that no real action was taken, and the other customers also started eating again.

It's just that everyone's attention is vaguely gathered here.

"This wine has no taste."

Amber looked at the rice wine in front of her, looking disappointed.

"Boy, you'd better stay in Qin's house for the next two months and don't come out, otherwise you might be in danger of death."

Chen Yixing said with a serious expression: "The guy just now is a typical vicious person. You offended him today, and he will definitely not give up."

"So domineering?"

Amber took a deep breath and said, "He said some nasty things as soon as he came. I said a few words back, and he wants to kill me?"

"Can't figure it out? This is the world of martial arts."

Chen Yixing put down his glass and said, "So, you'd better listen to me."

"What about you, old man?"

Amber asked.

Chen Yixing rolled his eyes when he heard this and said as a matter of course: "Of course he ran away. I have been retired from the underworld for so many years. How could I possibly fight him in public?"

"Hiss, you are really not like a martial artist at all!"

Amber shook her head and laughed, "Aren't you afraid of what people say about you?"

"I didn't show up from beginning to end, who knows if it's true?"

Chen Yixing said indifferently: "Well, I should go too, otherwise if I'm late, something unexpected might happen."

"You're not going to finish it?"

"Let's drink again when we have a chance. I'll treat you then."

"Then I'll remember that!"

Amber watched the old man leave and sat alone at the table, sipping wine and eating food, looking very comfortable.

Gu Xiao has a bad temper, and his temper is even worse.

In an alley somewhere in Kyoto.

"Brother, Mr. Chen is a senior in the martial arts world after all, why are you so aggressive?"

Qin Qing said in a very serious tone: "And you actually challenged an old man who has been retired for many years to a duel. Aren't you afraid of winning unfairly?"

Now that there was no one around, she didn't need to hide her thoughts anymore.

"Junior sister, you are still young and don't know the nature of the martial arts world at all!"

Gu Xiao didn't care. "Chen Yixing was a big name back then. Except for the time he was ambushed, he had never been defeated. If I can defeat him head-on, my reputation in the martial arts world will immediately rise to a higher level. It's even possible that I'll be ranked first on the list of heroes! How can I miss such an opportunity?"

"Then have you ever thought about what would happen if you lost?"

Qin Qing gritted his teeth and said, "Then you will make Master lose all his face!"

"Hehehe, I have already stepped into the peak of the third rank. Who can defeat me? With my master above me, who dares to defeat me?"

Gu Xiao didn't care at all. Instead, he turned around and said, "It's you, Junior Sister. You have so many talented people who admire you in the martial arts world, but you chose to marry a useless son-in-law. This is really shameful!"
