Rebellious Old Servant: From Gatekeeper to Immortal Emperor

Chapter 27 A Triumphant Return, Su Haoxuan Enraged

"As I've already said, Miss Luo, there's no need to be so polite."

Qin Xiao smiled, secretly relieved.

I'm not afraid that Luo Yiren will agree, I'm afraid that she won't.

Otherwise, Qin Xiao wouldn't dare to hold onto the Silver Moon Token.

At this time.

A hurried voice suddenly came from afar:

"Senior Sister Luo, are you alright?"

A figure appeared, moving like a light rainbow, rapidly approaching.

In an instant, it stopped in front of Luo Yiren.

A beautiful figure appeared.

Who else could it be but Su Qingxue?

At this moment, Su Qingxue's pretty face was full of concern as she looked at Luo Yiren, who looked weak.

She clearly noticed Qin Xiao standing to the side, but only glanced at him before paying no further attention.

At this moment, Luo Yiren's condition was clearly more worrying to her.

"I'm fine, Junior Sister Su. I was accidentally ambushed by the three thugs of the Mi family, but fortunately, Elder Qin helped me. I fulfilled my mission and killed all three!"

Luo Yiren shook her head, keeping her promise and not revealing that Qin Xiao had killed Mi Da and Mi San.

"Oh? This person can actually lend you a hand? That would be wonderful."

Su Qingxue gave Qin Xiao a deep look.

Unexpectedly, Qin Xiao, such a weak martial artist, was able to help Luo Yiren.

This guy really got incredibly lucky.

She knew how noble Luo Yiren's status was, and that Qin Xiao would definitely receive a generous reward afterward for helping Luo Yiren.

Although somewhat displeased, Su Qingxue did not lash out at this moment. Instead, she looked at Luo Yiren and smiled slightly.

"Fortunately, the three villains of the Mi family have been captured and killed. The sect has a bounty on them of a pseudo-divine weapon. Senior Sister Luo, you will have another trump card."

"It's alright." Luo Yiren smiled nonchalantly, deliberately changing the subject, and said:

"Qingxue, how is Xue Wuming?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of embarrassment appeared on Su Qingxue's delicate face, and she said helplessly:

"Junior sister is incompetent, she let that thief escape, but I have already severed his arm and hit him with my Heart-Splitting Palm, he won't live for more than three days."

"Xue Wuming is, after all, a master in the late stage of Bone Refinement, at the same level as you, Junior Sister. It's not surprising that he was able to escape with his life."

Luo Yiren smiled, but did not blame Su Qingxue for it. "Besides, killing the three Mi family villains is enough for me to report to the sect. Junior sister, there is no need to blame yourself."

"Alright, but after you return, Junior Sister, you should still send people to search for Xue Wuming's whereabouts. We must find him alive or dead." Su Qingxue nodded, then said seriously, "Senior Sister, you can rest here. Leave the rest to me."

The second-realm experts of Blood Blade Stronghold were either dead or had fled, leaving only a bunch of nobodies.

Now that the Su family has the addition of Su Qingxue, a powerful expert in the late stage of the second realm, the outcome of this great battle is clearly already decided.

Then, she looked at Qin Xiao, her tone sharp: "Qin Xiao, protect your senior sister well. If anything happens to her, I will hold you responsible!"

"Yes, Miss." Qin Xiao cupped his hands in greeting. Since Su Qingxue hadn't caused him any trouble, he naturally didn't bother to argue with her.

He'd already made enough money today, so he wasn't bothered to participate in the rest of the battles.

As expected, the battle ended quickly. A late-stage second-realm expert joined the battlefield, and instantly, the battle became one-sided.

When the bandits of Blood Blade Stronghold saw that their leader had disappeared and Su Qingxue had appeared, they all collapsed without a fight and fled in a frenzy. The Su family took the opportunity to kill countless of them, leaving corpses strewn all over the ground and countless dead and wounded.

After taking stock of the battlefield, Su Qingxue led everyone to the headquarters of Blood Blade Stronghold to eliminate them completely and loot the place.

It wasn't until the next morning that everyone finally returned home, laden with their loot.

"Sir, you're back."

at home.

Lin Xiaoxian stood at the door, her eyes filled with longing.

Upon seeing Qin Xiao, her beautiful eyes immediately lit up with joy, and she quickly walked over.

She was extremely worried during that day and night.

After all, her father had just passed away due to a mission, and she was worried that Qin Xiao would follow in his footsteps.

Fortunately, Qin Xiao returned safely.

"Xiaoxian, I'm sorry to have worried you."

Qin Xiao held Lin Xiaoxian's small hand and smiled gently, "I've gained a lot this time. Come on, let's go inside and talk."

Enter the house.

Qin Xiao brought out all his gains from this trip.

Seeing those thousand-tael silver notes and bottles of pills...

Lin Xiaoxian's beautiful eyes widened in surprise:

"Sir, you didn't rob a bank, did you? How could you possibly earn so much from just one mission?"

Lin Xiaoxian is not Qin Xiao, but the daughter of the Su family's guards.

She was very familiar with the income of the Su family martial artists for carrying out missions.

When his father was on a mission, he could earn a few hundred taels of silver, which was considered a good income.

As a result, Qin Xiao actually made so much money in one go.

This is unbelievable.

"Haha, I was lucky this time. I saved a big shot and received her reward."

Qin Xiao did not tell Lin Xiaoxian about killing the three Mi family villains.

To avoid causing her worry, I instead told Lin Xiaoxian some good news:

"Xiaoxian, that important person has promised me that she will warn Su Haoxuan not to bother us again."

"Very good."

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoxian was both surprised and delighted.

What pleased her was that she no longer had to live in fear, afraid that Su Haoxuan would come looking for her one day.

To her surprise, she realized that Qin Xiao was deliberately hiding something from her.

Lin Xiaoxian wasn't naive enough to think that some important person would help her and her husband for no reason.

For such a powerful figure to stand up for them, Qin Xiao must have done an immense favor and faced tremendous danger.

Clearly, Qin Xiao had risked his life to gain this favor.

Qin Xiao spoke so casually so as not to worry her.

Understanding all this, Lin Xiaoxian felt a mixture of guilt and gratitude towards Qin Xiao.

She regretted her decision to marry Qin Xiao more and more.

Being able to have a husband who cherishes her so much, even if he's a bit older, is a million times better than marrying a hypocrite like Su Haoxuan.

At this moment, Qin Xiao said again:

"However, one must be strong to forge iron."

"Relying on the protection of powerful figures is ultimately not a long-term solution."

"Xiaoxian, we still need to improve our cultivation and reach the point where we are not afraid of Su Haoxuan as soon as possible."

"This will have to be done in your hands."

At this point, he looked at Lin Xiaoxian with burning eyes, his unspoken meaning all too clear.

Despite being exhausted for so long, Qin Xiao felt not tired at all, but rather energetic and excited.

They can't wait to regain their popularity.

Lin Xiaoxian blushed, fully understanding Qin Xiao's meaning. She had no intention of refusing, but simply said, her face still flushed:

"Master, please wait until you have bathed before you come to discuss cultivation. Xiaoxian is always ready to help."

"Let's take a bath together."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao could no longer hold back and immediately picked up Lin Xiaoxian.

They started walking into the room.

"Bang!"

Inside a mansion.

Su Haoxuan was furious, smashing furniture wildly and roaring angrily:

"Fine, fine, that bastard Qin Xiao has actually grown up and dared to send an outsider to warn me!"

Originally, when his subordinate Zhao Yan went missing, he planned to find Qin Xiao and question him, using this as a pretext to arrest and kill Qin Xiao.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to set off...

Luo Yiren actually came to his residence in person to warn him not to harass Qin Xiao and his wife any longer.

He had no choice but to smile and agree.

Thinking of all this, Su Haoxuan couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

He is the dignified second master of the Su family.

They were actually bullied to this extent by a mere gatekeeper lackey.

This is simply unreasonable.

But he didn't dare to retaliate.

After all, Luo Yiren is an inner disciple of the Mountain and River Sect.

Even the head of the family must treat the other party with utmost respect, let alone a second son's master.

In front of the inner disciples of the Mountain and River Sect, let alone the Su family, even the city lord wouldn't dare to act recklessly.

"Are we just supposed to swallow this insult like this?"

Su Haoxuan gritted his teeth; he simply couldn't swallow this insult.

"Why is the Second Master so angry? It's just dealing with an old servant. It would be easy to kill him without alerting Luo Yiren."

At this moment, a middle-aged man who looked like a scholar stepped out from the side and said with a glint in his eyes.

"Hmm? Zhang Cheng, do you have some ideas?"

Su Haoxuan's eyes lit up as he looked at the scholar. Zhang Cheng was his capable subordinate, far superior to that good-for-nothing Zhao Yan, and often offered good suggestions that Su Haoxuan had never thought of.

Zhang Cheng smiled slightly and said with absolute confidence:

"That's easy, Second Master. Don't forget, Qin Xiao exposed the Second Steward, and along with him, a large number of Wang family spies within the family."

"The Wang family must hate Qin Xiao, that old servant, to the core."

"You mean you're talking about using someone else to do the dirty work!"

Su Haoxuan's eyes lit up, and he instantly understood Zhang Cheng's meaning before Zhang Cheng could finish speaking.

"good."

Zhang Cheng smiled smugly, then said,

"I have heard that Qin Xiao made great contributions in the mission to wipe out the Blood Blade Stronghold. I can personally recommend Qin Xiao to the patriarch and give him a good job, sending him to another place."

"At that time, we'll also pass on some inside information to the Wang family."

"Do you think the Wang family will simply ignore the whereabouts of that old dog?"

"Great idea!"

Su Haoxuan's eyes lit up immediately, then a sinister smile appeared in them, and he immediately decided to do as Zhang Cheng said.

As for whether sending a message to the Wang family, a major enemy of the Su family, would harm their own family.

Su Haoxuan didn't care about any of that.

All he wants now is for Qin Xiao to die as soon as possible!
