Chapter 447: What Does This Have to Do with Me Being a Father?

“Is that really all there is, Brother -in-law?” After listening, Lan Ningshuang’s first reaction was that it was too ordinary, with nothing strange at all.

But the more ordinary it seemed, the more suspicious she became.

If nothing happened between the master and Miss Cang, why would they go out of their way to hide it?

“Of course, that’s all.” Qin Feng replied casually, then quickly changed the subject and said, “After talking so much, the food on the table is getting cold. Hurry up and eat it or we’ll have to heat it up in the kitchen.”

This excuse was an often-used method by the old man to change the subject. He had never expected that he would have to resort to such low tactics.Qin Feng sighed with emotion in his heart.

Late into the night, Qin Jian’an donned the mask of the Northern Ghost Head and arrived at the top of the Heavenly Tower of the Grand Literature Academy.

The white-haired, white-robed National Teacher of the Heavenly Tower stood with his hands behind his back, with two wine cups and a wine pot already arranged on the table.

Qin Jian’an was not polite. He sat cross-legged and poured himself a full cup of wine. Then he took off his mask, took a sip of wine, and then said in surprise, “Is this Drunken Immortal?

This was the wine brewed by Qin Feng, and as a father, he naturally knew it very well.

Seeing that the National Teacher remained unmoved, Qin Jian’an raised an eyebrow and said, “I still prefer the way you looked in Jinyang City, no need to pretend all the time.”

The National Teacher turned around and said weakly, “I envy that self, too.”

Without caring about the world, who would be willing to sit in one place and overlook the world regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter?

Living such a life is too tiring.

The two chatted for a while, and Qin Jian’an put down the wine cup and brought up the matter of the Dragon Clan coming to the capital. 

“I was originally thinking about how the brat would meet the Dragon Clan girl again, but it unexpectedly turned out like this.”

“Maybe if I were twenty years younger, I would have competed in the martial arts competition…”

Qin Jian’an dared not say the next words, but took another sip of wine.

However, it is normal for a young man to be full of passion. Who doesn’t want to show off in front of others, and who doesn’t love beautiful women?

The women of the Dragon Clan are all incomparable beauties.

Shaking the wine cup in his hand, Qin Jian’an said in a deep voice, “Cang Xuan setting up a martial arts competition for marriage seems like he doesn’t want to marry off his granddaughter. Should I let my son return the Dragon Bead earlier to avoid any trouble?”

That night in Shuliang City, he originally thought that Miss Cang Feilan would definitely become his daughter-in-law. But now he didn’t see it that way.

The Dragon Clan is an incredibly powerful race, and among those at the same level, who could be their equal?

As for his son, even though he had reached the fifth realm of the Literature Saint Dao Lineage, in his father’s eyes, he was still a weakling, completely incapable of succeeding in the martial arts competition.

It’s just too bad for the Dragon Clan girl who was deeply in love with his son.

Thinking about this, Old Man Qin sighed.

If possible, he would like to put on Qin Feng’s face and go to the martial arts stage for him, but that’s not realistic.

The National Teacher lifted his wine cup and replied, “If that guy didn’t want to marry his granddaughter, he would have taken the Dragon Bead right away. The reason for holding a martial arts competition is nothing more than saving face.”

Qin Jian’an frowned, “But the matter of the martial arts competition is well known. If Feng’er can’t pass the stage, how can he marry her? That old guy Cang Xuan would never do anything to disgrace himself.”

Unexpectedly, the National Teacher said meaningfully, “Don’t worry about passing the stage. You should think about how to persuade Liu Jianli to agree to your son’s remarriage.”

Qin Jian’an showed a strange expression. Does the other party’s words mean that it’s not too difficult for Qin Feng to challenge the competition? 

Knowing that the child is not as good as the father, after seeing the strength of the Dragon Clan today, he is one hundred percent certain that even if Feng’er uses all his strength, he still wouldn’t be able to get past the first person.

However, the other party is the National Teacher of the Heavenly Tower. For him, calculating the affairs of the world is just a matter of raising his hand.

Could there be any unforeseen variables? Qin Jian’an’s mind spun endlessly as he remembered the last sentence of the Heavenly Tower’s National Teacher. 

He raised his eyebrows and said, “Convincing Liu Jianli is the boy’s own business, what does it have to do with me as his father?”

If he had this ability, he would have had a concubine after marrying his second wife.

The results of today’s challenge have naturally reached the Imperial Palace, the majestic capital of the Great Qian Dynasty, a gathering place of talent, yet there was not a single person who could withstand a single move from the Dragon Clan?

Emperor Ming even began to suspect that the dragon clan’s showdown was fake, and that it was only to show the power of the dragon clan.

“Send my imperial decree to the head of the Demon Slaying Department, Chief Deng. If no one can break through the arena by tomorrow, send the Thirty-Six Stars into battle.”

“Yes, Your Majesty,” Eunuch Li replied respectfully.

On the other side, the Third Prince has already been released from the ban and returned to his own palace.

During the academic dispute, Tang Fei’s Heart Questioning Platform was shattered, and it was difficult for him to advance in the path of the Literature Saint, making him a useless person.

Afterwards, Tang Hongyun, the Minister of the Ministry of War, was inexplicably accused and stripped of his official position.

Coupled with the fact that he was grounded by his father, the two things were connected. It was not difficult to see that this was a warning from his father.

Not only did his plot against Qin Feng fail, but he also lost significant support from the Ministry of War, and even the Emperor became dissatisfied with him. It can be said that he lost in every way.

Thinking of this, the Third Prince became angry and threw everything on the table to the ground. For a moment, the sound of shattered objects was incessant.

His trusted guards stood by, not daring to make a sound.

Until the Third Prince finished venting his anger, he asked coldly, “When I was grounded last night, I heard thunder and the roar of dragons. This morning, I felt an earthquake in the capital. What exactly happened?”

When the guard heard this, he told the truth about the arrival of the Dragon Clan and the marriage challenge.

After listening, the Third Prince became inexplicably agitated. “Will the Dragon Clan suppress their power to the same extent as their opponents?”

The guard nodded and said, “Yes, regardless of the opponent’s realm, the members of the Dragon Clan are all like that.” 

“However, with the innate talent of the Dragon Clan bloodline, their physical strength is comparable to a warrior of the fifth realm. Even if they suppress their strength, it is still far from something an ordinary person can deal with.” 

“Like today’s challengers, none of them could force the Dragon Clan defender to use his innate divine power; they were all defeated in a single move”.

The Third Prince was not concerned about this, instead he asked, “What do you think is the chance of winning if I go to challenge?”

When the guard was questioned, he racked his brain and gave an answer, “Your Highness possesses an extraordinary talent that is rarely seen in this world. If you were given more time to grow, defeating the Dragon Clan would be a trivial matter.”

“But now…”

The guard didn’t finish his words, but the implication was already clear.

The Third Prince sneered, “Do you really think the Dragon Clan organised this challenge to select a powerful human?”

“What does Your Highness mean?”

“The Dragon Clan is extremely proud; they’ve known for a long time that no one can defeat them unless it’s a high-level being.” 

“And why would a high-level being be interested in this so-called marriage proposal from the Dragon Clan? If I’m not mistaken, they already have a target in mind for a son-in-law, and that would be the royal family!” 

“They want to form an alliance with the human royal family to counteract some danger that we are not aware of.” The Third Prince’s mouth curled up as he analysed.

The guard suddenly realised, “So if the Third Prince participates in the challenge, there’s a high probability that the Dragon Clan will let you win?”

“Exactly. If I marry a Dragon Clan woman in the future, when I’m competing for the position of heir, I’ll have the support of the Dragon Clan behind me! By then, what can the Crown Prince use to compete with me?”
