Chapter 247 The Problem of Qinglei Martial Arts Hall

Chen Xiao nodded and walked in with her.

"Dad, Dad, we are back." Qing Ling shouted loudly as she entered the house.

Hearing her daughter's cry, a middle-aged man in black clothes came out and smiled at Qing Ling: "I am glad you are safe!"

This man is the owner of Qinglei Martial Arts Hall, Xu Qinglei, a genuine three-star martial arts master. However, when Chen Xiao saw this man, he frowned. He could see that this man had a very serious hidden injury, which obviously affected his combat power.

However, Chen Xiao did not directly bring up this matter. He did not want to cause himself more trouble. It is better to have less trouble than more.

After Qing Ling talked with Xu Qinglei for a while, she took Chen Xiao and arranged a residence.

After Chen Xiao entered the room, he also sat cross-legged and continued to adjust the injuries in his body.

The previous battle with the elder of the Spirit Sword Sect was indeed quite brutal. Even now, Chen Xiao still has not fully recovered his fighting power and needs to recuperate for a while.

On the other hand, Qing Ling told Xu Qinglei about what happened on the way, including how Chen Xiao scared Wang Guang away with just one word, and strangled more than a dozen Martial Emperors without showing his face.

When Xu Qinglei heard this, his face was solemn, and he asked seriously: "Is this true?"

"Dad, I saw it with my own eyes, so it is absolutely true." Qing Ling said coquettishly, and continued: "In a short time, it will be the assessment battle. Now you are injured and can't fight. If our Qinglei Martial Arts School loses this battle without a fight, I am afraid that we will not be able to maintain our position as a first-class force in Tianlong City. I invited him back to the martial arts school, hoping to persuade him to help."

Xu Qinglei nodded: "He strangled more than a dozen martial emperors with the power of space in an instant. If it is true, this person's martial arts cultivation is not much inferior to mine."

Although Qinglei Martial Arts School is a first-class force in Tianlong City, it is now facing a big problem.

Because Tianlong City will hold an assessment every three years, the first-class forces must send the strongest people. After passing the assessment, they can continue to maintain this position, otherwise they will lose their position as a first-class force.

This was not a big problem, but a year ago, Xu Qinglei was seriously injured in a battle with someone. Even after a long rest, he still could not exert his full combat power. Now, with the cultivation of a three-star martial master, he could not even fight against a two-star martial master.

In this state, it is obviously impossible to fight for Qinglei Martial Arts School, but if this battle fails, it will definitely be a disaster for Qinglei Martial Arts School.

Over the years, Qinglei Martial Arts School has also established many enemies. If the ranking of the martial arts school drops, it is likely that countless people will take advantage of it, and even directly destroy the family.

It was in this situation that Xu Qinglei asked his daughter to take the treasure to ask an old friend to help him, but found that even the old friend was unwilling to help and directly sent the treasure back.

This news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Xu Qinglei, but at this moment, Chen Xiao actually appeared, which gave them a glimmer of hope again.

"If he is willing to help our Qinglei Martial Arts School through the difficulties, no matter what the request is, I am willing to agree!" Xu Qinglei said solemnly.

......

In the guest room of Qinglei Martial Arts School, Chen Xiao was recuperating and practicing. There was a knock on the door outside, which broke him out of his practice.

"Come in." Chen Xiao frowned and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was gently pushed open, and the carefully dressed Qing Ling entered.

She glanced at Chen Xiao and asked carefully: "Mr. Xiao Chen, are you used to living here?"

"Not bad." Chen Xiao nodded, motioning her to continue. Chen Xiao was thoughtful and naturally saw that this little girl had something to say, not just coming to say hello.

Sure enough, after Chen Xiao opened his mouth, Qing Ling cried softly, crying and complaining: "I hope Mr. Xiao Chen can help our Qinglei Martial Arts School."

Immediately, she told Chen Xiao the whole story of the matter. After hearing her words, Chen Xiao frowned, it was another troublesome matter.

"So, you plan to ask me to be your external aid in the assessment battle to help you keep your place in the first-class forces?" Chen Xiao raised his head slightly and asked.

The little girl nodded quickly: "I hope Mr. Xiao Chen can help. Qinglei Martial Arts School will definitely remember this favor."

At present, in Qinglei Martial Arts School, only Chen Xiao can be regarded as the only life-saving straw. Qing Ling has already placed all her hopes on Chen Xiao, so after she finished speaking, she looked at Chen Xiao very nervously, waiting for his response.

Chen Xiao pondered for a long time before speaking lightly: "I am more afraid of trouble. It's not impossible to help you, but... what benefits can I get?"

Chen Xiao's temperament has always been profit-oriented. As for the favor of Qing Ling saving him in the Tianlang Mountains before, he scared Wang Guang away for them, which can be regarded as repayment. So this time, if there is no sufficient benefit for her request, Chen Xiao will not be interested in helping.

After hearing Chen Xiao's words, Qing Ling took a deep breath, as if mustering up great courage: "As long as you are willing to help Qing Lei Martial Arts School overcome the difficulties, if you don't mind, Qing Ling is willing to marry you!"

After saying this, Qing Ling's pretty face flushed slightly. Hearing this, Chen Xiao was speechless. He was not a traitor, so he would not take advantage of others. He immediately shook his head and said, "I am not interested in this reward."

Qing Ling should have been glad to keep her innocence after being rejected by Chen Xiao, but for some reason, she felt a little disappointed.

"Then...what kind of reward does the gentleman want? As long as my Qing Lei Martial Arts School can afford it, I will never be stingy." Qing Ling gritted her teeth and said.

At this moment, Chen Xiao nodded: "I want...materials for alchemy and refining, all kinds of natural treasures, I want them."

In fact, after listening to the difficulties of Qing Lei Martial Arts School, Chen Xiao decided to help. After all, in his opinion, this was just a piece of cake and not very difficult.

According to Qing Ling, when Xu Qing Lei was in his prime, his cultivation as a three-star martial master was enough to easily pass the assessment battle. I guess the difficulty of this battle would not be too great.

Chen Xiao also desperately needed various natural treasures for the "Void Body Training Technique" to absorb, firstly to completely recover from his injuries, and secondly to improve his cultivation, so both sides got what they needed.

Seeing Chen Xiao agreed, Qing Ling nodded excitedly: "As long as you agree, everything will be easy."
