Chapter 202 Space Tunnel
Qin Xuan gave Tailong a vicious look. He said he was a good brother, but he just walked away at the critical moment. He was really ungrateful!
Facing such an embarrassing situation for the first time, Qin Xuan felt helpless. After thinking again and again, he finally looked at Lin Lingyue and said, "Princess Lingyue, I'm sorry. Qin also has urgent matters to deal with. I'm afraid I can't stay. Let's meet again another day."
"This..." Many people froze when they heard Qin Xuan's words. They even thought they had heard it wrong. Qin Xuan actually rejected Lin Lingyue's invitation?
Lin Xuan's pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes showed shock. Lingyue was not only beautiful, but also had an extraordinary temperament. Countless people followed her. He couldn't think of why Qin Xuan would refuse.
"Sure enough." Lin Yuyang's expression froze, then shook his head, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He knew the story of Qin Xuan and Duan Ruoxi, and knew that with Qin Xuan's personality, it was impossible for him to accept Lingyue's love.
Facts proved that, as he expected, Qin Xuan refused.
Lin Lingyue's beautiful eyes froze for a moment, but she quickly reacted. Her body trembled slightly. She was confident that she was beautiful and had no idea how many people admired her, but why did Qin Xuan reject her?
"Why?" Lin Lingyue opened her pearly teeth slightly, staring at Qin Xuan with a hint of resentment in her beautiful eyes.
"What does the princess mean?" Qin Xuan asked in confusion, pretending to know nothing. In fact, he felt quite guilty. He knew that he was a little too much for Lin Lingyue, but he knew that if he didn't make a decision, it would only hurt her more in the future.
"Why did you reject me?" Lin Lingyue's eyes were a little wet, with tears in the corners of her eyes, looking very touching, making people feel pity.
Facing Lin Lingyue's questioning, Qin Xuan sighed in his heart and said with shame: "The princess is outstandingly beautiful and of noble status. Qin is just a commoner and thinks he is not worthy of the princess."
"You lied to me!" Lin Lingyue said angrily, tears streaming down her face. She stopped looking at Qin Xuan and suddenly turned around and ran out of the hall.
"Lingyue!" Lin Xuan shouted loudly, but Lin Lingyue's footsteps did not stop at all. She seemed to be too sad and could not bear to stay in this sad place.
"Qin Xuan you..." Lin Xuan looked at Qin Xuan suddenly and wanted to get angry, but thinking of everything Qin Xuan had done before, he finally held back and gradually calmed down his anger. He asked: "Why did you reject Lingyue? Is there anything unspeakable?"
"Reporting to the emperor, I already have a wife. Even if Princess Lingyue marries me, I'm afraid the emperor will not agree, right?" Qin Xuan stood up and bowed to Lin Xuan.
Many people showed a look of sudden enlightenment. It turned out that Qin Xuan already had a beloved woman. No wonder he ignored such a beautiful woman as the Sixth Princess. Their eyes looking at Qin Xuan could not help but change again.
When Lin Xuan heard this, his expression froze for a while, and then he sighed. If this was true, he would not be willing to marry Ling Yue off. After all, Ling Yue was a princess of a country. If it was spread out, her reputation would inevitably be damaged.
"What are your plans for the future, nephew Qin? Are you willing to stay in Zhuifeng Country to practice? If you are willing, the royal family is willing to provide all the resources for practice, and you can choose any elixir or magic weapon." Lin Xuan said to Qin Xuan.
Lin Yurong's face gradually darkened. He felt more and more that Lin Xuan attached extraordinary importance to Qin Xuan. If Qin Xuan chose to stay, he might integrate him into the royal family at all costs and eventually pass the throne to him. This was what he was most worried about.
Everyone's heart was trembling, and their eyes were sharp. It seemed that the emperor still wanted to keep Qin Xuan, and he made such a promise. It was a great temptation. The magic medicine, magic weapon and Yuanji were extremely important to martial arts practitioners, and no one would refuse.
If ordinary people heard this, they would probably be excited and agreed directly. This was simply a treasure given by heaven. It did not require any effort and was within their reach. They only needed to concentrate on practicing.
However, Qin Xuan's next words made everyone in the hall completely stunned, and they could not speak for a long time.
"Thank you for the emperor's kindness, but I have made up my mind to go to the outside world to experience and see the scenery. As for resources, I prefer to obtain them through my own means. Getting something for nothing is not my style."
Qin Xuan knew what Lin Xuan meant. He provided resources for his practice on the premise that he must stay in Zhuifeng Country. This was undoubtedly tying him and Zhuifeng Country together. The reason why he came to Zhuifeng Country was only because of his friendship with Lin Yuyang, and other things were not within his consideration.
Hearing this, Lin Xuan looked at Qin Xuan deeply, with unconcealed admiration in his eyes. Such a young man was really outstanding. Even if resources were placed in front of him, he was still unmoved. His character was far beyond that of ordinary people.
If he knew that Qin Xuan was determined to reach the pinnacle of martial arts and explore the ultimate mystery of martial arts, he would probably be even more shocked, and at the same time he would understand why Qin Xuan answered like that.
He thought Qin Xuan was a dragon in the lake, but he didn't know that Qin Xuan was determined to become a real dragon flying in the sky and commanding all beasts.
"When will the nephew leave?" Lin Xuan asked again.
"Tomorrow morning." Qin Xuan responded, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked Lin Xuan: "Senior, do you know how to get to Piaoxue City?"
"Piaoxue City?" Lin Xuan's eyes suddenly condensed, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, and asked: "Are you going to Piaoxue City?"
"Yes, someone told me before that there will be a grand event in Piaoxue City, and I want to see the prosperity of that grand event." Qin Xuan said truthfully.
At this time, Lin Yurong asked, "Father, where is Piaoxue City? Why have I never heard of it?"
"Piaoxue City is not within the jurisdiction of Xuantian Palace. Many forces there are much stronger than Xuantian Palace. It is a real paradise for cultivation." Lin Xuan said slowly with a yearning look in his eyes.
Many ministers and family heads were listening quietly. This was a secret that was rarely heard in other places. Everyone held their breath and concentrated. The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Lin Xuan thought Qin Xuan would go to Xuantian Palace for training first, but he didn't expect that he would go to Piaoxue City, which shocked him.
When he was young, he was arrogant and had been to a place very close to Piaoxue City, but he came back not long after. There were too many geniuses there, and he had no chance to shine.
"Father, since it is not within the jurisdiction of Xuantian Palace, how can we go to Piaoxue City?" Lin Yuyang also asked.
Qin Xuan's eyes flashed, and he looked at Lin Xuan. The Heavenly Sword Girl only told him to go to Piaoxue City, but did not tell him how to get there. It seems that what she said is true. Piaoxue City has many geniuses gathered, otherwise, it would not be outside the control area of Xuantian Palace.
"Piaoxue City is a large city in Beidou Prefecture. It is extremely majestic and has an endless distance from here. Even King Yuan has to travel non-stop for a month to get there." Lin Xuan said: "To go to Piaoxue City, the journey is extremely difficult. You need to go to the main city of Xuantian Palace and use the space tunnel to cross the space before you can get there."
"Space tunnel?" Qin Xuan's eyes flashed with a sharp color. He had heard Elder Fen mention space tunnels. It is said that many cities are so large that they occupy endless territories. The distance between two cities is too far, so there are powerful people who use supreme magical powers to cast space tunnels. With the help of space tunnels, the time to travel can be greatly shortened, just like crossing the void.
"Space tunnels, condensed with the power of space, I am afraid it takes a lot of strength to cast them?" Someone asked.
"Only the emperor has the ability to build a space tunnel." Lin Xuan looked at the man and uttered a faint voice with a hint of awe in his tone.
"Emperor!" Everyone's face changed when they heard this, and their hearts beat uncontrollably. The emperor's strength is even higher than that of the king, and he is a true legend.
Although the kings of their Zhuifeng country rarely appear, they do exist after all, but it is impossible for an emperor to be born. If they exist, they can control the laws of a country.
It is said that even in Xuantian Palace, there is only one emperor, and because of his existence, Xuantian Palace rules the endless territory of eighteen countries, and no one can compete with him.
"Emperor?" Qin Xuan's heart was slightly disturbed, and he was not as shocked as others. Judging from the tone of Fen Lao, it seems that it was not difficult for him to build a space tunnel in his lifetime.
"Even an emperor can only build a short-distance space tunnel. After all, a space tunnel spans across space, which is a huge project. Even an ordinary Yuanhuang can only build a space tunnel of ten thousand miles." Lin Xuan added.
Qin Xuan suddenly thought of something, with a hint of doubt in his eyes, and asked Lin Xuan: "According to what the senior said, Piaoxue City and Xuantian Palace are extremely far apart, but Xuantian Palace has a space tunnel leading to Piaoxue City. Doesn't that mean that the emperor of Xuantian Palace is extremely powerful?"
"Not so." Lin Xuan shook his head and said: "Xuantian Palace controls the land of the eighteen countries and once had a glorious era. At that time, Xuantian Palace had not only one emperor, but it was said that three emperors took action at the same time to build the space tunnel."
Qin Xuan finally showed a look of sudden enlightenment after hearing Lin Xuan's explanation. He didn't expect that Xuantian Palace was once so powerful, but now it has fallen to only one emperor. This is also the result of the changes of the times. Rise and fall are unstoppable.
