Qin Guang didn't accept this batch of dowries, but Tang Xiao pretended not to hear it, and said that after seven days, he would invite Zhou Shitong to attend the engagement ceremony at the Qin family, this is a clear threat, I don't care if your Qin family agrees or not, you have no choice.

A week later, I not only want to get your Qin family's request to agree to the proposal, but also ask your Qin family to personally organize the engagement banquet, I call Zhou Shitong together, if your Qin family is unwilling, it will be a catastrophe.

In fact, long before Tang Xiao came to the Qin family today, he was already secretly suppressing the Qin family, during this time. The Qin family's industries in Yanjing have been devastated, and some of the Qin family's hidden masters have been purged in various ways, and even many high-level Qin family officials have all been threatened, and the Qin family has already been in turmoil.

Although this is the first time Tang Xiao has come to the Qin family to propose marriage. It seems to be very casual, in fact, he has already made all the preparations in secret, a week later, if your Qin family does not hold an engagement banquet, then I, Tang Xiao, will use all means to destroy your Qin family's century-old foundation.

Tang Xiao Chunfeng proudly walked out of Qin's house, not long after he left, Qin Zhen walked out of the room inside, looking at this large pile of dowries, Qin Zhen's face was still very calm.

The green tendons on Qin Guang's forehead all burst out. He turned his head to look at Qin Zhen behind him and said, "Zhen'er, you also saw it." “

"Hmm." Qin Zhen nodded, still so calm.

"Hahaha, hahahaha."

Qin Guang suddenly laughed. The smile was a little inexplicable, and then he looked up at the sky, took a deep breath, and said, "It's been twenty years, and it's finally time to wait for this day, grandpa, I'm coming to you." “

Qin Zhen's face changed slightly: "Father, what do you mean?" “

"Yes, your grandfather Qin Ming." Qin Guang replied: "The Zhou family, the Liu family, the Tang family, and my Qin family are all top wealthy families on Yanjing's side, and the three of them have Zhenjun, and my Qin family naturally has it." “

Although Qin Zhen had long guessed that her grandfather Qin Ming was not dead, and when she was a child, she and her brother Qin Hao were naughty, and they also went to the forbidden land of the Qin family to explore, and was later taught a hard lesson by his father, and now when it was confirmed that her grandfather was still alive, Qin Zhen was still shocked.

"Grandpa, is he really alive?"

"As early as sixty years ago, your grandfather's cultivation had reached the peak of the half-step True Monarch, but it was the most critical step. It's too difficult, it took him forty years, and he couldn't completely transform the true yuan in his body into a yuan fetus, twenty years ago, your grandfather Qin Ming in order to impact the True Monarch Realm. He took a risk, cultivated my Qin family's forbidden technique, and then retreated to cultivate, trying to use the most dangerous method to completely push his cultivation into the realm of the True Monarch of the Dao. “

"Grandpa, did you succeed?" Qin Zhen asked a little nervously.

"I don't know." Qin Guang shook his head: "At that time, when your grandfather was in retreat, he told me that the secret technique is dangerous, and it not only takes a huge amount of time, but also a slight draw. It is possible to completely devour his entire soul, and once he succeeds in cultivating, he will directly enter the realm of the True Monarch of the Path, if he fails, then his soul will be completely devoured by the Netherworld, and even if his body is not corrupted, he will become a living dead. “

"So, now I don't know if your grandfather succeeded, but he promised me that if the Qin family faces a huge crisis, I can open the stone gate and go in to find him."

Qin Zhen looked a little nervous and said, "Father, if you venture in, will it affect Grandpa?" Moreover, our Qin family has not yet reached that point.

"It's already here." Qin Guang smiled bitterly: "Since your grandfather said that I could go in and find him, then there is no need to worry that we will affect his cultivation." “

"Zhen'er, I still say the same thing, if you don't want to, I will never force you, even if you lose the entire Qin family, I will not force it, but if your grandfather is really gone. I still hope you're ready to go. “

Qin Zhen didn't answer, just nodded quietly, and then the two of them came to the Qin family's forbidden place together.

Outside the forbidden land, there were Qin family's masters guarding it, Qin Guang and Qin Zhen walked all the way to the inside of the forbidden land, and then stopped in front of a huge stone door. Qin Guang took out a trap key from his body, which he had carried with him since twenty years ago.

The key was in the shape of a pentagonal heart, and he walked to the stone door, pushed away the moss and rattan that was overgrown on the outside of the stone door, and stuffed the key into a groove in the stone door. With a strong twist, the stone door opened.

It was dark inside, Qin Guang and Qin Zhen looked serious and walked in cautiously.

This is a stone cave with three rooms in it. The other two rooms were all stored with all kinds of pills, and the middle room was where Qin Ming cultivated.

When he cultivated to reach the half-step True Monarch, he would not have any problems even if he didn't eat or drink water for a few months on weekdays, if he added the turtle breath retreat, he would even be able to go without eating for a few years, and Qin Ming had prepared a large number of energy-replenishing pills here in advance, so in the past twenty years, he had never left this stone room, and he had been cultivating in this stone room.

Qin Guang and Qin Zhen didn't dare to enter Qin Ming's room directly, but knelt outside to explain their intentions.

However, Qin Guang shouted outside for a long time, but there was no response from inside the stone room, and gradually, Qin Guang and they felt that something was wrong, so he and Qin Zhen cautiously entered the stone room, and then saw Qin Ming.

Qin Ming looked like he was less than sixty years old, and he and Qin Guang were like brothers, he sat there motionless, without any life.

Qin Guang's whole body trembled, and then he trembled and stretched out his hand to Qin Ming's snort, out of breath.

At this moment, Qin Guang's whole person was paralyzed, and Qin Zhen behind him hurriedly helped him, and her hands were trembling.

Originally, Qin Ming was the last hope of their Qin family. But I didn't expect that this hope would be directly shattered.

Qin Ming failed, he practiced the secret technique in retreat in this stone room for twenty years, trying to use the secret technique to forcibly push his cultivation to the realm of the True Monarch of the Dao, but he still failed in the end, his soul has been completely devoured by the dark secret in the secret and has become a living dead.

Although Qin Ming still looks lifelike now, he can't wake up anymore.

Qin Zhen and Qin Guang knelt in front of Qin Ming and kowtowed to him several times. Then the two got up and left the stone room, silently closing the door outside, this time closing the door, this stone door will never be opened again.

Qin Guang didn't spread the news of Qin Ming, everything was as if they had never been here. It's just that the only hope in his heart is shattered.

After coming out, Qin Guang didn't say anything to Qin Zhen again, he gave all the options to Qin Zhen.

....

A week later, Tang Xiao took Zhou Shitong to the Qin family again, although Tang Xiao said last time he left that he would let the Qin family prepare the engagement banquet by themselves, but all this was just talking. Even if the Qin family compromised, they would not organize this so-called engagement banquet, and then they would really be broken by someone.

Zhou Jinyuan is a half-step world, when Qin Ming was not in retreat, Zhou Jinyuan could only be regarded as Qin Ming's younger brother, and now, the Qin family is in this situation, but Qin Ming still has not appeared, Zhou Jinyuan is almost certain that Qin Ming will never come out.

In that case, he has nothing to fear.

This time, Zhou Shitong personally made the decision for Tang Xiao, like the Qin family, this time, Qin Guang's attitude was lukewarm, it was still the same sentence, he couldn't be the master of his daughter's life, everything, he had to let Qin Zhen make his own decisions.

In the end, Qin Zhen appeared, looking at Tang Xiao, Zhou Jinyuan and the others, a grim smile appeared on her face: "Tang Gongzi is a masterpiece, I, Qin Zhen, a little woman, can get married to Tang Gongzi, it is a blessing, for Tang Gongzi's proposal, I, Qin Zhen, agreed." “

Although Tang Xiao knew that Qin Zhen didn't mean what he said, he was still overjoyed, he didn't need to get Qin Zhen's heart, he just needed to get her person.

Qin Guang on the side was cold, he looked at his daughter, and said very seriously: "Zhen'er, have you really thought about it?" “

Qin Zhen smiled at Qin Guang, his face was still calm as usual: "I have thought about my father, I am willing to marry Tang Gongzi." “
