"An invitation to a hero?"

Looking at the gold-embossed words, Qin Ziling was both amused and exasperated.

Has he had too much to drink? A small scuffle turned into a huge brawl?

“Mr. Qin, this invitation was sent by the Martial Arts Association. Their message is that although the Tiger Gate has unified Jianghai City and is considered a criminal organization, they can make an exception for us to participate,” Su Changhu said.

"Has Humen never participated in the Martial Arts Tournament before?" Qin Ziling asked, somewhat puzzled.

Su Changhu shook his head: "No, when my Tiger Gate was established, the Martial Arts Tournament had already ended and had not been held for many years. Moreover, even though people like us have influence in the underworld, it is still very difficult to participate in the tournament."

"However, their martial arts association's attitude this time was excellent; they even specifically requested that we be present."

Qin Ziling's lips curled into a smile: "Actually, you should have already guessed their purpose, shouldn't you?"

Su Changhu nodded slightly: "It is common knowledge that the Tiger Gate and the Dragon Gate have always been at odds. Moreover, our Tiger Gate is weaker than the Dragon Gate. Now that the Dragon Gate has been swallowed up by our Tiger Gate, they must have guessed your existence, sir. Otherwise, our Tiger Gate alone would not be a match for the Dragon Gate! This invitation should be for you, sir!"

Qin Ziling nodded: "You're right, it seems those guys are trying to lure me out!"

He really needs to learn about the Martial Arts Association.

Su Changhu suddenly said, "Sir, the Dragon Gate Master was a master who had broken through to the Grandmaster level. Now that he is dead, they naturally assume that your strength is at least that of a Grandmaster. Therefore, they dare not be careless and want to find out your strength."

Qin Ziling nodded: "Not only that, if I'm not mistaken, they probably want to test my strength. If I don't pose a threat to them, then they will either recruit me or eliminate me!"

Su Changhu's expression immediately turned serious.

If that's the case, then this is undoubtedly a trap!

"Sir, should we go to the martial arts tournament or not?" Su Changhu asked hesitantly.

He didn't know Mr. Qin's true strength either, because he had made too few moves!

In the last battle, that girl displayed her skills exceptionally well.

However, judging from the fact that the woman was following Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin's strength must be above hers!

Qin Ziling raised an eyebrow, then smiled and said, "Go! Of course I'll go! Why wouldn't I? Don't they want to see my strength? Then I'll show them a thing or two!"

"And let them know that Humen today is not the same Humen as before!"

Upon hearing this, Su Changhu's eyes lit up immediately: "Yes! In that case! I'll go and arrange it right away!"

"When will the martial arts tournament be held?" Qin Ziling asked.

"The date on it is three days from now, and the location is the Martial Arts Association Square!" Su Changhu replied.

"Alright, I understand. We'll talk about it later." Qin Ziling nodded.

A hint of respect appeared in Su Changhu's eyes.

As expected of Mr. Qin, he remained calm and composed even when facing the Martial Arts Association.

Thinking of something, he suddenly smiled bitterly. Yes, the other party didn't even take the Bi family in the provincial capital seriously, so how could they be interested in the Martial Arts Association?

"By the way, what's going on in Jiang Province?" Qin Ziling suddenly asked.

Su Changhu immediately said, "There's been no movement from the Bi family yet, but my men have discovered that a master from the Bi family has entered Jianghai. However, the other party is very skilled, and I lost two of my men. The other party has already escaped our surveillance."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ziling's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "It seems they are very interested in Jianghai!"

He slowly stood up and sneered, "No rush. If he shows up again, just let me know. The premise is that you can't beat him."

"Understood!" Su Changhu replied respectfully.

"Wow! Big brother! You're here?!" Suddenly, a surprised exclamation rang out.

Qin Ziling's face stiffened, and Su Changhu was also taken aback. He then straightened up and looked at his daughter who had run in from the lobby entrance: "What are you so anxious about?"

Su Ning'er ignored her father and instead, with sparkling eyes, rushed into Qin Ziling's arms, greedily taking a deep breath: "Big brother, why are you here?"

Qin Ziling looked a little awkward: "I've come to ask your father for something."

"Huh? You're already this familiar with my dad?" Su Ning'er raised her pretty face and looked at him with a grin.

Qin Ziling smiled and said, "We're not that close, we've just met a few times."

Su Ning'er nodded thoughtfully, then turned to look at her father: "Dad, you didn't bully big brother, did you?"

Su Changhu's face darkened: "How dare you talk like that? Do you think your father is that kind of person?"

He was utterly speechless. He dared to bully Mr. Qin? What a joke! Would he even dare?

My own daughter is siding with outsiders!

My heart aches terribly!

"Hmph! Do you think I don't know your temper, Dad? If it weren't for my older brother's martial arts skills, you would probably have torn him to pieces by now!" Su Ning'er said with a look of disdain.

Qin Ziling: "..."

Su Changhu: "..."

Qin Ziling shook his head, speechless. Good heavens, are you hoping I'll die?

Su Changhu's anger deepened: "You unfilial daughter! This is an attempt to sow discord!"

He glanced at Mr. Qin out of the corner of his eye and, seeing that the other man had no expression, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking helplessly at her daughter, she asked, "Why are you here? Don't you live at school?"

Since being enlightened by Qin Ziling last time, Su Ning'er has been going to school obediently and has even settled in the school dormitory.

Only Qin Ziling's influence could make a rich young lady sleep in a school dormitory and obey her obediently.

Su Ning'er stuck out her tongue: "Silly Dad, it's the weekend! What's wrong with me coming back for a visit? You sound like you're not welcoming your precious daughter at all. Don't you recognize me as your daughter anymore?"

Su Changhu's eyelids twitched: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

He was indeed speechless. He had been discussing matters with Mr. Qin, but his daughter's sudden intrusion had undoubtedly interrupted them.

It's only because she's his daughter. If it weren't for that, if it were his son, he would have already drawn his Seven Wolves sword and beaten him!

"How's school?" Qin Ziling asked, patting Su Ning'er's head.

Su Ning'er enjoyed the other person's caresses, squinted her eyes comfortably, and said playfully, "It's okay. School classes are boring, but also very simple. You can learn them just by listening."

Qin Ziling remained silent.

"By the way, Kexin mentioned you to me recently, saying she hasn't seen you in a long time. Big brother, what have you been busy with lately?" Su Ning'er asked curiously.

Qin Ziling smiled slightly, but didn't answer her. Instead, he asked, "Are you hungry? Want to come eat with me?"

Upon hearing this, Su Ning'er's eyes lit up: "Great! Great!"
