City Lord's Mansion, living room.
Qin Haitian and City Lord Xu were chatting, accompanied by the butler Dan Qiu Sheng, while Xu Zhiqing was sitting shyly at the bottom, stealing a glance at Qin Haitian from time to time. This also indirectly showed that she had fallen in love and was reluctant to be separated from Qin Haitian.
This can be confirmed by the fact that her favorability towards Qin Haitian has reached 95 points.
"Qin...my dear son-in-law." Xu Wei looked at Qin Haitian, and still felt a little unnatural when addressing him. He didn't know how to address him.
"Father-in-law, just say whatever you want to say." Qin Haitian said with a smile.
Compared to Xu Wei's awkwardness in this change of identity, Qin Haitian's screams were soul-stirring and there was no embarrassment at all, as if he had rehearsed it thousands of times.
Xu Zhiqing heard
Seeing Qin Haitian's carefree behavior, Xu Wei laughed dumbly and said with a complicated expression: "You may have guessed that the reason I'm suddenly in a hurry to find a Taoist partner for my daughter is actually because I'm going back to Zhongzhou next."
"Father, you... went back to Zhongzhou, why didn't you take me with you?" Upon hearing this, the shy Xu Zhiqing was stunned and felt a little uncomfortable.
"It will be dangerous for my father-in-law to return to Zhongzhou!" Qin Haitian looked at Xu Wei, hesitated for a moment, and said.
"I didn't want to tell you at first, but I was worried that you might overthink it, Qing'er. After thinking it over, I decided to tell you." Xu Wei sighed and said seriously, "Because we will indeed encounter some crises when we return to Zhongzhou, and if I take you with me, I may not be able to protect you!"
There was one thing he didn't say, which was that if he took Xu Zhiqing back with him, Xu Zhiqing would become his weak spot.
He and Dan Qiu Sheng could ignore some dangers, but Xu Zhiqing couldn't. Moreover, he returned to Zhongzhou this time with the determination to die if he failed.
"I..." Xu Zhiqing could hear the love her father expressed for her and the pain he felt in making this decision. What else could she say at this moment? Her cultivation was considered top-notch among the Tianjiao in Qingzhou, but in the high-end game, her strength was not much stronger than that of an ant.
"Haitian, can you take good care of Zhiqing for me?" Xu Wei looked at Qin Haitian with a serious expression.
"Don't worry, father-in-law. I will protect Zhiqing." Qin Haitian said seriously, his expression was serious and solemn: "Just like I promised before."
Xu Wei nodded with relief. Qin Haitian looked like a man who kept his promises. After thinking for a while, he asked, "When do you want to get married? If it's a short time, I can still attend. If it's a long time, I'm afraid I can't attend!"
"Well, it depends on what Zhiqing thinks." Qin Haitian looked at Xu Zhiqing. To be honest, he didn't want to go through this formality. After all, the other women who followed him earlier hadn't gone through this formality yet!
But who can blame this father-in-law for being so powerful? Even if I use all my trump cards, I am still no match for him, and I don’t have enough confidence to speak firmly!
"I can do anything!" Xu Zhiqing pursed her lips, looked at her father and said seriously, "If possible, I would like to wait until we go to Zhongzhou one day and let my father personally preside over our wedding."
There would be danger if her father went to Zhongzhou, so how could she get married here with peace of mind!
Moreover, she had only known Qin Haitian for a few days, and although she agreed to become his Taoist partner, she felt that it was still a bit too hasty. The main reason was that time passed too quickly. It was only two or three days from the time they met to the time they became Taoist partners, which seemed to be too wasted.
Of course, she asked her father to preside over the wedding because she was actually worried that her father would not take his own life seriously when he encountered a crisis in Zhongzhou. By saying this, she could at least make her father have more concerns when he did something dangerous.
This was the only thing she could do.
"Is that so?" Xu Wei sighed when he heard this. He had made arrangements for his daughter so that he could rest assured. However, his daughter's behavior made his original determination to die have some flaws.
But there are flaws in my determination, which is both good and bad. The bad thing is that I may not be able to really go all out, but the good thing is that I may think more before making certain decisions.
"Father-in-law, since Zhiqing said so, let's wait until we go to Zhongzhou one day and let you preside over our wedding!" Qin Haitian breathed a sigh of relief, but a trace of regret appeared on his face. He was truly an old drama queen, and said.
Although he didn't mind giving Xu Zhiqing a wedding and a ceremony, he hadn't figured out how to deal with the other woman's feelings yet. It would be best if he could delay it for some time.
"Okay!" Hearing Qin Haitian say this, Xu Wei could only sigh and agree. He paused and looked at Qin Haitian and said, "My dear son-in-law, I have a message for you. Don't go to Zhongzhou until you reach the Daotai realm in the future."
"It seems that quite a few cultivators in the Star Sea Realm have gone to Zhongzhou to venture out?" Qin Haitian blinked and said.
"Many Star Sea Realm cultivators go to Zhongzhou because their potential is limited and they cannot break through in Qingzhou," said Xu Wei.
"By the way, father-in-law, you said that we should not go to Zhongzhou until we reach the perfection of Daotai realm. Why didn't you say that we should go after we break through to the Four Symbols realm?" Qin Haitian asked with some confusion.
"Because it's too difficult to break through in a small state like Qingzhou! I'm worried that it will waste your cultivation talent!" Xu Wei sighed: "Compared to Qingzhou, the spiritual energy here is thinner and the Taoism is sparse. If it weren't for... Anyway, I have come to Qingzhou for more than a hundred years for a special reason. As for the reason, I won't tell you."
He came to Qingzhou to avoid disaster. If he told her, he was afraid that his daughter and son-in-law would ask him questions.
