"Where is Song Yao?" Qin Chuan asked bluntly.
Song Fu was initially surprised that Qin Chuan was still alive, but he quickly regained his composure, his expression turning cold. "Qin Chuan, you must have heard about our Young Miss's engagement, right? Our Young Miss is now a 3rd Realm Martial Artist and the future mistress of the Qi Family. Even if the Qin Family were at its peak, you wouldn't be worthy of her."
His words were harsh but truthful.
When Qin Chuan first learned of Song Yao's martial potential, he too felt unworthy. But times had changed; he was now a formidable cultivator, having reached the Tongxuan Realm, a level far beyond ordinary martial artists, even if he had lost his cultivation.
Moreover, he no longer had any interest in Song Yao. His purpose in seeking her out was related to the Qi Family.
Seeing Qin Chuan remain silent, Song Fu's face was full of arrogance as he continued, "I know you still have feelings for our Young Miss, or you wouldn't have come to the Song Family. But as you can see, our family now resides in Yunding Villas. You should abandon any fantasies about her!"
"Where is Song Yao?" Qin Chuan asked again, as if he hadn't understood a word Song Fu said.
Song Fu frowned, feeling that Qin Chuan was being ungrateful. He had made the situation clear, yet Qin Chuan seemed oblivious to the gap between them.
The current Qin Chuan and the Young Miss were worlds apart. Even at the peak of the Qin Family, Qin Chuan wasn't worthy to carry her shoes.
"Qin Chuan, didn't you understand what I said?" Song Fu was growing impatient, but after a pause, he added, "Fine, considering your past engagement with our Young Miss, I won't hold it against you. Since you're so eager to know her whereabouts, I'll tell you."
"A Martial Dao Exchange Conference is being held in Jinling, and our Young Miss has gone to participate. Only martial artists of the 4th Realm and above can attend. If you have the ability, go find her there!"
After hearing this, Qin Chuan left without looking back.
"That kid!" Song Fu sneered disdainfully. "I hope he gives up and doesn't appear before the Young Miss again, or he'll only humiliate himself."
"Steward Song, I heard the Qin Family was destroyed by Young Master Qi?" a Song Family martial artist couldn't help but ask.
"So what if it was?" Song Fu was indifferent. "In the Martial Dao World, the strong are revered. Qin Chuan is just an ordinary person. Even if he knew the truth, could he seek revenge on Young Master Qi?"
"If he has any sense, he'll hide and never appear again. Young Master Qi wouldn't even notice such a small figure. If he foolishly approaches the Young Miss and is caught by Young Master Qi, he might be killed on the spot."
...
The Martial Dao Exchange Conference continued.
The conference had been ongoing for three days, with powerful martial artists continuously joining, prolonging the event. New chapters come out on g.com first.
Song Yao was also at the conference. As a 3rd Realm Martial Artist, she technically wasn't qualified to attend, but as the future daughter-in-law of the Qi Family, no one dared to object.
Many rules only applied to ordinary martial artists, while powerful Martial Dao Families were exempt.
"Miss Song, I heard you reached the 3rd Realm in just two and a half years?"
"Amazing, truly a Heavenly Talent. Even the Lin Family's prodigy can't compare."
"Among the younger generation, you are indeed outstanding."
"I also heard you're the future daughter-in-law of the Qi Family."
Many older martial artists praised Song Yao's talent.
Song Yao held her head high like a golden phoenix, maintaining her dignity even among martial artists of higher realms, knowing her future would surpass theirs.
"Song Yao, it's fortunate you got engaged to Young Master Qi. If you were engaged to that Qin Family member, you wouldn't have reached such heights," said her friend Fu Yunyun, who was around thirty and a 4th Realm Martial Artist, considered a Grandmaster.
However, her advancement to the 4th Realm by thirty was largely due to her wealthy background and abundant cultivation resources, as her innate talent was rather average.
Song Yao also used cultivation resources; otherwise, her progress wouldn't have been so rapid. Yet, reaching the 3rd Realm in two and a half years was still considered a Heavenly Talent among Heavenly Talents.
Song Yao frowned slightly. "Fu Yunyun, don't mention that waste in front of me. His name doesn't deserve to be in my world."
"Oh, right," Fu Yunyun nodded. Despite her higher realm, she was respectful toward Song Yao.
Boom!
Suddenly, a powerful aura erupted at the conference.
Everyone was shocked, intimidated by the aura, and turned to look in its direction.
A man in his fifties entered, accompanied by four individuals, each surpassing the 4th Realm! This chapter is updated first at g.com.
"That's... Venerable Zhang!" someone immediately recognized the man in his fifties.
"Has he reached the 7th Realm?"
"My God... A few years ago, he was only at the 6th Realm. How did he reach the 7th so quickly?"
"His cultivation speed... is far ahead!"
"Indeed, far ahead."
...
"Venerable Zhang!"
Song Yao approached him. As the future daughter-in-law of the Qi Family, she had met many powerful figures, including 7th Realm martial artists.
Venerable Zhang nodded slightly. "Niece Song, where is Mingyu?"
"Mingyu is on the second floor," Song Yao pointed upward.
The second floor was the core of the Martial Dao Exchange Conference, inaccessible to martial artists without significant background.
Venerable Zhang acknowledged and, after speaking to his companions, ascended to the second floor alone.
Fu Yunyun was full of envy. "Song Yao, I'm so envious of you. Even Venerable Zhang knows you and addresses you so affectionately."
In truth, she admired how calm Song Yao remained in front of Venerable Zhang. If it were her, she would have been a nervous wreck.
What does a 7th Realm martial artist represent?
It's like having a million-dollar fortune and meeting a billionaire magnate.
Song Yao's face radiated pride; this was the power of strength and status.
Thinking of Qin Chuan, she sneered. It's a pity Qin Chuan was already dead, or he would have witnessed what it meant to be in her world, his dreams shattered.
"Song Yao!"
At that moment, a voice devoid of emotion echoed, not loud but clearly heard by everyone at the Martial Dao Exchange Conference...
