Jianchen smiled, "Brother Qin Xiao, Jianchen has come without warning. Have I disturbed you?"
"Hehe, it's fine, it's fine. Brother Jianchen is an esteemed guest of my Tianqin clan. My Tianqin clan is more than happy to welcome you." Qin Xiao's father, the patriarch of the Tianqin clan, stood up from his chair and smiled amiably. Afterwards, he extended his hand and pointed at an empty seat nearby, "Brother Jianchen, please take a seat. Please take a seat."
Jianchen clasped his hands with a smile, "Thank you, patriarch!" Afterwards, Jianchen did not hold back and directly sat down in an empty seat.
With Jianchen's arrival, the heavy atmosphere in the hall seemed to ease up slightly. Many of the upper echelon of the Tianqin clan glanced at Jianchen from time to time. Their eyes flickered with light, but no one knew what they were thinking.
Jian Chen glanced past everyone in the hall. After a moment of hesitation, he clasped his hands at the patriarch of the Tianqin clan, "Patriarch, I see that everyone's eyebrows are tightly furrowed, and their moods are heavy. Has the patriarch of the Tianqin clan come across some trouble that you can't resolve?"
The patriarch of the Tianqin clan gently sighed, "Brother Jianchen is correct. My Tianqin clan has indeed come across some trouble right now."
"May I ask if the patriarch can say this, but Qin Xiao is one of Jianchen's best brothers. Since you've come across trouble, I will definitely help you out for the sake of Qin Xiao's brother." Jianchen's words indirectly raised Qin Xiao's status in the Tianqin clan. Even though he knew that Qin Xiao was already the next patriarch of the Tianqin clan with his current strength and talent, his actions still helped Qin Xiao quite a bit.
Qin Xiao could not help but feel his heart warm up when he heard Jianchen's words. He stared at Jianchen gratefully as he thought, I didn't recognize the wrong brother.
Jianchen's words made many of the upper echelon of the Tianqin clan look at Qin Xiao in a different light. The upper echelon of the Qin clan looked at Qin Xiao with gratification, while the upper echelon of the Tianqin clan looked at him with mixed feelings. They were extremely envious and filled with various emotions.
The patriarch of the Tianqin clan took in everyone's expressions without batting an eyelid. He laughed aloud, "Brother Jian Chen, it's Xiao 'er's honor to be able to befriend you. My Tianqin clan might really need your assistance this time. Whether or not Qin' er can return safely will all depend on you."
Jianchen's heart skipped a beat. He asked, "Patriarch, has something happened to miss Qin Qin?" Qin Qin was the second young lady of the Tianqin clan.
The joy on the patriarch's face gradually vanished. He nodded heavily, "Brother Jianchen is correct. Qin 'er has indeed encountered trouble this time. Half a month ago, when she went out, she was actually taken away by the Serpent Dragon Bandits on Coiling Dragon Mountain. Two days later, she married the only son of the leader of the Serpent Dragon Bandits."
Jianchen's face sank when he heard that. Although he had only met the second young lady of the Tianqin clan by chance, she was still Qin Xiao's sister. No matter what, he could not bear to see such a beautiful woman marry a stranger under the pressure of bandits.
"Are the Serpent Dragon Bandits very powerful?" Jianchen asked.
The patriarch of the Tianqin clan nodded sternly, "They are indeed very powerful. The Serpent Dragon Bandits are the greatest bandit group in a radius of several tens of thousand kilometers. They have already existed for over eight hundred years. Their strength is so great that they can even take on our Zhuya Kingdom by themselves. There are many experts in the bandit group as well. There are four known Heaven Saint Masters alone."
"And it's rumored that the number of Heaven Saint Masters in the Serpent Dragon Bandits is definitely not so few. There are even quite a few Heaven Saint Masters from a hundred years ago who have gone into seclusion on Coiling Dragon Mountain, ignoring the matters of the world. If these people are included, the Serpent Dragon Bandits will have over a dozen Heaven Saint Masters. Coupled with their first boss who has reached the peak of Heaven Saint Master, even our Zhuya Kingdom would not dare to provoke them so easily, let alone our Tianqin clan that can only dominate a single city."
A member of the upper echelon of the Tianqin clan who sat beside Jianchen continued, "The strength of the Serpent Dragon Bandits is something that even the nearby kingdoms fear. In particular, the first boss of the Serpent Dragon Bandits is publicly acknowledged as the greatest expert in this region. Not only has he reached the peak of Heaven Saint Master, he has also grasped a Heaven Tier Battle Skill. No one can defeat him in a radius of several tens of thousand kilometers. At the same time, the first boss of the Serpent Dragon Bandits has an extremely powerful armor made of golden silk. With the protection of the armor, even Heaven Saint Masters will struggle to pose a threat to him. This is why the first boss of the Serpent Dragon Bandits is basically the greatest existence below Saint Ruler. "
"In the past, our Zhuya Kingdom and the other kingdoms sent out over ten Heaven Saint Masters in an attempt to wipe out the Serpent Dragon Bandits, but they all returned in defeat. Not only did they fail, but they also lost five Heaven Saint Masters. These five people all died to the hands of the first boss of the Serpent Dragon Bandits," another old man said.
"Looks like the first boss of the Serpent Dragon Bandits is quite powerful," Jianchen murmured.
