Upon hearing this, Xu Qing's pretty face changed: "Xu Pengcheng, if you want to show off your connections to help the Xu family, then go ahead and show off your connections. What do you mean by exchanging me for them?"

Xu Pengcheng shrugged and laughed, "My dear sister, isn't it because my friend genuinely likes you? If we didn't offer some benefits, he wouldn't have come to help our Xu family, would he?"

"After all, our Xu family has offended the renowned Qin Xian this time."

When the Xu family heard this, they all felt that it made perfect sense.

He's the governor's son, after all. He can't just stand up for the Xu family without getting any benefit in return, can he?

And who knows, this might even help me get in touch with the governor.

"Xiaoqing, I think Pengcheng's words make sense. It's all for the Xu family."

"Besides, it didn't say anything about what you should do. It just means you can get to know each other and see. If it really works out, then our Xu family is really lucky to have made such a good match."

"Exactly, don't be ungrateful after getting the benefit."

"Xiaoqing, it's an honor for you to be with the governor's son."

"..."

The elders of the Xu family all began to earnestly persuade him.

Xu Qing's face turned ashen.

As for her parents, they remained silent at this moment, clearly believing the same thing.

"Xiaoqing, besides, you were the one who made the deal with Qin Xian. Now, for the sake of the Xu family, it's only right that you make a small sacrifice." Xu Sheng naturally supported his son, and in his mind, this request didn't even count as a sacrifice.

Looking across Huangzhou, how many women wanted to marry the governor's son?

This is the pinnacle of power in Huangzhou martial arts!

Xu Pengcheng directly roasted Xu Qing over the fire: "My dear sister, for the sake of the Xu family, you wouldn't even be willing to make this small sacrifice, would you?"

Xu Qing didn't know what to say for a moment.

A small sacrifice?

That's ridiculous.

If he sacrifices himself, all the credit will go to Xu Pengcheng.

Moreover, this time she went to the Dao Court to help her grandfather extend his life by ten years, but in the eyes of the Xu family, it was her fault for provoking Qin Xian.

Even my grandfather thought so.

Faced with pressure from the Xu family and her parents' silence, Xu Qing could only weakly reply, "Okay."

"That's more like it. I'll call Ma Hai right now." Xu Pengcheng took out his phone and made a call.

About half a minute later.

Grandpa Xu quickly asked, "How is it?"

"Grandpa, don't worry, Ma Hai is already on his way here, and this time he has brought a lot of helpers, all of whom are martial arts officials and nobles," Xu Pengcheng said proudly.

"Okay, okay..."

A look of joy appeared on the old man's aged face.

The entire Xu family felt there was hope.

Ultimately, the Xu family was too arrogant. The reason for this was that although Qin Chuan had a great reputation, it was still just a rumor to them.

In many cases, the Xu family believed that these rumors were only partially true.

Moreover, they also felt that Xu Qing might be deceiving them by making a deal with Qin Xian, which was not impossible.

"Pengcheng is really capable; he can even befriend the governor's son."

"That's right. Luckily, Pengcheng was there this time, which gave us room to maneuver."

The entire Xu family clearly attributed the credit to Xu Pengcheng.

As for Xu Qing, who made a small sacrifice, everyone in the Xu family thought it was only right.

About half an hour later.

Led by the old man, the Xu family arrived at the Xu family's gate to personally welcome Ma Hai.

One after another, tanks came rolling in.

That's right, it's not some luxury car, but a military vehicle!

There are five in total.

Those who disembarked from the chariots included not only Ma Hai, the governor's son, but also many sons of high-ranking officials and nobles who practiced martial arts.

"Your humble abode is truly honored by this visit..."

The old man's aged face was beaming with joy.

"Father, we owe a great debt to Pengcheng this time. If Qin Xian had really come, with these martial arts authorities around, we might have been able to cut the 100 billion by half, or even more." Xu Sheng began to take credit for his son.

"Yes, that's natural." The old man nodded.

This time, the person who mainly entertained Ma Hai and the others was naturally Xu Pengcheng. He acted like a little brother, serving tea and water to Ma Hai and the others after entering the Xu family, enjoying himself immensely.

Although Ma Hai's father was the Martial Arts Governor of Huangzhou, he himself was not a martial artist. Firstly, he had no talent for martial arts, and secondly, the beginning of martial arts training was extremely arduous, which he could not endure.

Because he wasn't a martial artist himself, he was extremely interested in Xu Qing, a female martial artist, and she was also exceptionally beautiful.

While drinking his tea, Ma Hai kept his eyes fixed on Xu Qing, his intentions quite obvious.

Xu Qing didn't speak, nor did she want to make eye contact with Ma Hai. She pretended not to see anything. How could a martial artist like her be interested in an ordinary person?

Even though Ma Hai's father was a governor, it didn't change the fact that Ma Hai was just an ordinary person.

"Cough cough..."

The old man understood and immediately gave Xu Qing a look.

Xu Qing had no choice but to sit down next to Ma Hai.

"Brother Ma, congratulations!"

"Yes, he won the heart of his beauty."

"..."

Many sons of officials and nobles offered their congratulations.

These sons of officials and nobles are no ordinary people; they all come from the upper echelons of the martial arts world in Huangzhou.

If it were just Ma Hai, the Xu family might not have felt quite enough, but with so many sons of officials and nobles arriving all at once, the Xu family immediately felt secure.

"It seems there's definitely room for negotiation this time."

The old man chuckled and said, "Ma Hai, Pengcheng must have told you about this, right?"

"Yes, I said it."

Ma Hai nodded: "I heard that you made a deal with a martial arts expert at the peak, but the fee for this deal is really too high. One hundred billion is just asking for the moon."

"I've taken care of this for you. How much do you want to negotiate the price down to? If I'm willing, I might even let you pay nothing at all!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Xu family beamed with joy.

But when they thought of Qin Xian's terrifying power, they suddenly felt that not giving him a single penny would be suicidal.

The old man hesitated for a moment, then said, "Ma Hai, actually we don't need to cut it too much. Cutting it from 100 billion to 10 billion would be enough."

"Oh?"

Ma Hai was somewhat surprised: "You don't trust me? You think my status isn't enough to make them not take a single penny?"

That's not what I meant...

The old man hurriedly explained, "You might not know who he is, but he's the renowned legend of our time... Qin Xian!"

uh-huh?

Upon hearing the name Qin Xian...

Many sons of officials and nobles were stunned for a moment, their expressions varying.

Ma Hai, however, didn't seem to care at all: "Oh, Qin Xian?"

Seeing that Ma Hai remained so calm upon hearing the name Qin Xian, the Xu family felt even more reassured.

All that could be heard was Ma Hai slamming his teacup down and letting out a cold snort:

"What exactly is Qin Xian?"
