"Then I'll thank Brother Qin's good intentions first!" Xiao Chen smiled faintly and didn't refuse right away. Instead, he asked, "I presume your Qin Family also has considerable strength in Yanlin Town, right? Otherwise, Zhao Wendeng wouldn't have left the matter unsettled just because of a few words from you. "
Now that he knew the Zhao Family only had one Golden Core expert holding the fort, Xiao Chen didn't care about that family anymore. He also wanted to find out how much weight the Qin Family had.
"It's alright! Although our Qin Family doesn't have the Zhao Family's impressive tributes, even if we were to go up against the Zhao Family, we wouldn't be afraid at all! " Qin Taotian patted his chest confidently and said, "Because my grandfather is already a Foundation Establishment Great Circle expert, and there are faint signs of a breakthrough recently. If he can successfully advance, then our Qin Family will replace the Zhao Family sooner or later and become the number one family in Yanlin Town!"
"That's really not bad!" Hearing Qin Taotian's words, Xiao Chen only smiled and answered casually. He didn't make any statement.
In Xiao Chen's eyes, it didn't matter to him whether the Qin Family or the Zhao Family could become the number one family in Yanlin Town.
Moreover, Xiao Chen could also faintly feel that Qin Taotian's purpose of treating him to a meal wasn't that simple. Therefore, he only responded casually with a few sentences and cautiously didn't make any biased judgments.
However, Qin Taotian didn't pay attention to Xiao Chen's attitude. Instead, he said to him earnestly and earnestly, "However, Brother Xiao, I still have to give you a piece of advice. After you find your lost seniors and juniors, it's better to leave Yanlin Town as soon as possible! After all, I can protect you for a while, but I can't protect you forever! "
"Hehe, I understand what you mean. I'll consider it." Xiao Chen smiled faintly and nodded. He didn't say anything more.
After sweeping away all the dishes on the table and filling their stomachs, Xiao Chen and Hong Zhu stood up and said their goodbyes, preparing to set off in search of the others. As for the kindness of this meal, Xiao Chen had no way of repaying Qin Taotian at the moment. He could only wait until he had earned enough spirit crystals in the future, then think of a way to repay Qin Taotian.
A group of people clustered around each other as they walked to the restaurant's entrance. After both parties bid farewell to each other, Xiao Chen and Hong Zhu turned around and left. Qin Taotian thought for a moment before he suddenly shouted, "Brother Xiao, please wait, I still have something to say!"
Xiao Chen stopped and turned around, asking in astonishment, "Brother Qin, do you have anything else to tell me?"
Qin Taotian walked a few steps to the front of Xiao Chen and explained, "Brother Xiao, Zhao Wendeng is a person who will seek revenge for the smallest grievance, so I reckon that he will bring a mid-level Foundation Establishment expert to cause trouble for you! If you don't mind, why don't you come to stay with us for a few days? I can borrow the Qin Family's connections to help you search for your lost senior and junior brothers. What do you think? "
The scene of Xiao Chen killing the opponent's first level Foundation Establishment expert with a single palm strike just so happened to be witnessed by Qin Taotian. He felt that Xiao Chen should be quite powerful, and it was precisely because of this that Qin Taotian had specially stepped forward to help Xiao Chen out of his predicament.
While they were eating, Qin Taotian had tried to probe Xiao Chen with a few words. Unfortunately, he was unable to find out Xiao Chen's true cultivation level. However, based on the power of Xiao Chen's palm strike, Qin Taotian estimated that he should at least be at the third or fourth level of the Foundation Establishment stage!
Thus, when they were descending the stairs, a plan suddenly appeared in Qin Taotian's mind. This was why he had rashly asked Xiao Chen and Hong Zhu to stay.
"Many thanks for Brother Qin's good intentions. Since the Zhao Family is so eager to court death, then let them be. I have my own ways to deal with them. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave!" Xiao Chen did not accept Qin Taotian's invitation. Instead, he directly shook his head and rejected it. Then, he turned around and left the restaurant with Hong Zhu.
At present, Xiao Chen was in a hurry to find the whereabouts of Cheng Mengying and the other women. How could he have the time to get entangled with the Zhao Family and the Qin Family? As for the so-called Zhao Family experts, he did not place them in his eyes at all!
Furthermore, when Qin Taotian had mentioned searching together, Xiao Chen did not believe that a family in such a small town could have many connections that would be sufficient to help him find a place that even his divine sense could not cover.
Qin Taotian had completely believed that Xiao Chen would agree immediately. He never imagined that this fellow would actually choose to reject his invitation. He was immediately stunned on the spot. However, he did not become angry because of this. Instead, he rubbed his chin and looked meaningfully at the backs of Xiao Chen and Hong Zhu as they left.
Just now, when he mentioned the mid-level Foundation Establishment experts, this Xiao Qiang seemed to have a very disdainful expression. He seemed to be quite powerful. Could it be … that his cultivation was higher than the Foundation Establishment Stage?
"Young Master, this Xiao fellow is actually so untactful. We invited him to a meal out of goodwill and even invited him back as a guest, but he still acted so arrogantly. Shouldn't we find a chance to teach him a lesson? That would also make him more cautious! " When the middle-aged man behind Qin Taotian saw that he did not speak for a long time, he thought that Qin Taotian had been angered silly and suggested.
"Are you crazy? This Xiao Qiang's strength might even be above yours and mine. Besides, I still need to use him to attack the Zhao Family. How can we become enemies with him over such a small matter? Is there something wrong with your brain? "Qin Taotian regained his senses and glared at him as he scolded.
"Hehe, I was just speaking thoughtlessly. Please be magnanimous and don't take offense. Then, what do you think we should do next?" The middle-aged man jumped in fright and hurriedly said with a smile.
Qin Taotian pondered for a moment and immediately made a decision. With a wave of his hand, he said, "Let's follow them and take a look. When the time comes, we'll act according to the situation!"
After making his decision, Qin Taotian ordered his subordinates to pay for the meal. Then, he led a group of people and followed behind Xiao Chen and Hong Zhu from afar.
From Qin Taotian's point of view, Xiao Chen's strength should not be weak. If he could fight with the Zhao Family and kill a few of them, he would exhaust some of the other party's middle-level strength. Then, the pressure on the Qin Family would be greatly reduced!
After all, the Qin Family was only slightly weaker than the Zhao Family. However, it was precisely this slight difference that caused the Qin Family to be restrained in many areas by the Zhao Family. They were unable to continue expanding and could only stay in the Zhao Family's shadow to survive.
If Xiao Chen could make a move and weaken the Zhao Family's strength, wouldn't that mean that there was hope for their Qin Family?
Xiao Chen brought Hong Zhu to stroll around Yanlin Town for a while. As they walked, he used his divine sense to search carefully. However, he still could not find any traces of Cheng Mengying and the other women. Hong Zhu even specially found a few stalls and asked if they had seen any strangers entering or leaving. The answers were all negative. It seemed that they had not appeared here at all.
Helpless, Xiao Chen and Hong Zhu could only decide to leave Yanlin Town and search other places.
