The other person said slowly, "More than three hundred years have passed since then, but looking back, it feels like it just happened yesterday."
Qin Zhenhai: "..."
He chuckled dryly, "Heh, is that so? In that case, Brother Xu, what brings you here to visit?"
Qin Zhenhai didn't know why the overlord in front of him had chosen to play one of his aliases, but he decided not to expose him yet. He would keep the other party calm and wait until he could see through the other party's true intentions before making any moves.
Since the other party could sneak into his office silently and hide their cultivation level in front of him, they must be at least a martial artist at the mid-stage of the Overlord realm, or possess a special holy body.
Although Qin Zhenhai's disguise is little known, any martial artist who has reached the mid-stage of the Overlord realm in the Vast Ocean is qualified to be "little known." The fact that he came to our door so brazenly indicates that he is a human overlord from another region.
If this is a helpful opportunity and the person's abilities match, Qin Zhenhai wouldn't mind giving this person the reputation that the "Heartless Swordsman" has built up over three hundred years.
But if this is a cunning person trying to gain favor by riding on the coattails of the vast ocean's energy... he is not the "Qin Turtle" as rumored!
Xu Wuxin said, "Guests are guests, Old Qin. We've known each other for so many years. Are you just going to let me stand here and talk to you like this?"
Qin Zhenhai's temple throbbed, but he forced a smile and said, "It's my fault, my fault."
They casually summoned a chair from the side, and the two sat down facing each other.
In his opening remarks before the formal conversation, Qin Zhenhai subtly provoked this pretentious imposter.
"Brother Wuxin, why isn't your sword energy showing?"
"It's for better interpersonal relationships."
"Brother Wuxin, why does your voice sound a little different?"
"It's because you've reached the stage of voice change."
"Brother Wuxin, how come you have such a handsome face?"
"..."
Xu Wuxin paused for a moment, then replied, "Because I pinched my cheeks. Old Qin, you don't know, but everyone says Xu Wuxin is incredibly handsome. How could I not know?"
"This Xu Wuxin's handsomeness is achieved through martial arts disguise and bone alteration. His original appearance... sigh, it's actually no better looking than yours, Qin Lao, it's ugly!"
Qin Zhenhai: "..."
Was it just his imagination?
Is this imposter cricketing at him, or is the imposter making fun of himself?
Logically speaking, since the other party chose to impersonate him, they shouldn't know that Qin Zhenhai is actually Xu Wuxin.
Unless this person is incredibly bored and deliberately came here to mess with him... but there shouldn't be such a bored person in this world, right?
After exchanging a few casual words, the two got down to business.
Xu Wuxin got up and walked to the window: "Old Qin, look at the bustling street scene below, and the leisurely lives of the people."
"Do you see the children laughing and playing on the street? Do you see the teenagers practicing martial arts in the square?"
"They live in peace and contentment, they are happy and healthy, this is the kind of life our Han Hai Ning Bo people should be living."
Thinking of the hardships of the past few hundred years, Qin Zhenhai couldn't help but nod and say, "Yes, I..."
The next second, "Xu Wuxin" continued, "But this is all thanks to me."
Qin Zhenhai: "???"
"Xu Wuxin" continued, "If it weren't for my years of fighting on the front lines, slaying demons and monsters, how could the people here be living such a good life?"
"Hilarious! Is this all thanks to you, the old turtle who's always holed up in Tianhai City?"
Qin Zhenhai remained silent, only clenching his fists. He wanted to hit someone; he didn't want to continue acting; he wanted to smash this ignorant imposter to death right now.
The imposter continued, "However, you are actually somewhat useful. Although you haven't done much, you've managed to govern fairly well. I'll give you one ten-thousandth of the credit."
Qin Zhenhai had already gathered his Yuan Power, but just as he was about to make his move, the imposter turned around by the window. His ambiguous smile made Qin Zhenhai's heart skip a beat, and even the flow of his Yuan Power seemed to become blocked.
Xu Wuxin stepped forward and slapped Qin Zhenhai on the shoulder: "Old Qin, you're in luck."
"What blessing?"
“I’ve prepared a VIP seat for you.” “Xu Wuxin” grabbed his shoulder: “Come with me.”
"Come and witness with your own eyes how I slaughter all the sea monsters!"
The next instant, "Xu Wuxin" in a very inconsiderate manner took Qin Zhenhai and soared into the sky, smashing the office's floor-to-ceiling window to pieces!
This scene undoubtedly stunned the people below.
"Yes, someone attacked the city lord's mansion?"
"You're joking, Old Wu... cough cough, the old city lord is at the peak of the Overlord realm, how could he be easily attacked by thugs!?"
"And what about the siren?"
"If it's a siren, then it must be one of the three giants, right?"
"Did the Mermaid King infiltrate Tianhai City? How dare he!? Such blatant provocation, isn't he afraid of the human race's supreme ruler taking action?"
The people in the city were in chaos. Clearly, they had no doubt that the Mermaid King had the ability to attack Qin Zhenhai and escape unscathed.
They questioned the Heavenly King of Mermaids' courage.
In the original timeline, although the sea monsters of the Vast Ocean were overwhelmingly superior to humans in terms of combat power, they would not have dared to unleash such a massive wave of monsters if the Sea Prince had not been about to break through to the fourth realm.
Only when "Xu Wuxin" slowed down his movements, allowing the people below to see that it was a person, did they quiet down.
After the silence came an even greater uproar, with countless people cheering. If popularity were quantified, Xu Wuxin's popularity score would be at least twenty times that of Qin Zhenhai!
"See? Only someone like me, who dares to fight and take risks, is welcomed." Lifting Qin Zhenhai over one shoulder, "Xu Wuxin" shook his head and said, "Old Qin, listen to this. Not a single person down there is calling your name, and no one cares why I'm carrying you."
"Tsk tsk tsk, this just goes to show how unsuccessful you are as a domain lord."
Qin Zhenhai: mmp!
He was in excruciating pain as one of his shoulders was grabbed, but when he tried to break free, he found that he couldn't muster any strength at all. His Yuan energy was clearly within his body, but it seemed to have been scattered into a lump of mud, unable to gather together.
We can only watch helplessly as this powerful scoundrel flaunts his position under his name.
"Greetings, fellow clansmen!"
"Greetings, Heartless Swordsman!"
Hello everyone from Han Hai Ning Bo!
"Greetings, Xu Bazhe, who vanquishes the seas and vanquishes demons!"
After exchanging a few greetings, "Xu Wuxin" laughed heartily: "Everyone, this swordsman has recently made another breakthrough in his cultivation. I'm here to show your domain lord how these long-rampant sea monsters were wiped out!"
