This remark displeased Bei Chudao, but he didn't take it to heart, seeing it as nothing more than an unrealistic statement from Qin Chuan.
"Very well, I'll wait. I hope you don't keep me waiting too long, because you don't have that much time," Bei Chudao said, then left.
Qin Chuan smiled, saying nothing more. Since they had chosen this path, then they would have to make the Bei Chu family pay a heavy price.
Hall Master Wu looked at Qin Chuan apologetically. After all, this was his matter, but now Qin Chuan was involved, forced to take the lead.
Of course, he was also grateful to Lao Luo, who never shied away from this matter, and this time he had completely dragged Lao Luo into it as well.
Sometimes it's like this; Hall Master Wu wasn't good with words, and in matters like this, the more you say, the more counterproductive it becomes.
Such an effort cannot be expressed with just a word of thanks; that would seem insensitive. Although Qin Chuan and Lao Luo hadn't expected Hall Master Wu to do anything,
they didn't want to hear him simply say thank you. Often, gratitude is felt in the heart, not spoken.
However, Qin Chuan needed to improve his strength, but that wasn't something that could be done in a day or two.
Also, the other side was watching him, and he couldn't go out. He himself wasn't too worried; he was confident. But Old Luo and Palace Master Wu couldn't leave.
It would be fine in the short term, but in the long term, it would be difficult.
Qin Chuan was now thinking about when he could reach the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level.
Once he reached that level, he was confident he could challenge the Northern Chu family. He frowned, and Zhao Han, standing behind him, gently massaged his temples with her snow-white hand.
"There's always a way out. Don't think so much,"
Qin Chuan smiled, enjoying the soft touch and the comfort on his head against her chest.
Zhao Han blushed slightly. She had seen him frowning and worried, but he was enjoying himself so much that she couldn't help but laugh.
"You brat, behave yourself!" Zhao Han said, her face red.
Since he didn't know her true identity, Qin Chuan's hand had already landed on her legs—straight, long, shapely legs with smooth, incredibly elastic skin.
Qin Chuan's hand slid down to her firm, round buttocks, and Zhao Han trembled, knowing she was about to be taken advantage of.
When they came out, the sun was already setting. Zhao Han's face was flushed, radiating the beauty and satisfaction of their lovemaking.
Qin Chuan watched her calm down unconsciously.
Seeing her happy and satisfied expression, Qin Chuan felt satisfied and accomplished. Zhao Han lowered her head slightly under his gaze.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen enough yet..."
she muttered softly, which Qin Chuan found amusing. He reached out and lifted her chin: "How can I not see enough? You're a feast for the eyes, incredibly delicious."
Zhao Han was used to Qin Chuan's frivolous words, and deep down, she felt a sweet warmth. It's said that men and women in love are fools.
At that moment, whatever they say is true, they believe in each other, and they are happy.
Many things can only be said between two people, and only in certain situations—of course, some scoundrels are exceptions.
Men and women are a strange existence; they can't express themselves normally, but in special circumstances, such as when they are most intimate, the words they utter exceed their own wildest imaginations.
Just like now, Qin Chuan could tease her naturally, but if Zhao Han's expression wasn't like this, she definitely wouldn't be able to say it, and even if she insisted, it wouldn't have the same effect or feeling.
"Are we just going to stay here like this?" Zhao Han asked softly.
"How could we? We not only want to go out, but we also want to do something," Qin Chuan laughed.
"How do we go out?" Zhao Han asked.
"You'll find out soon enough. We'll do something tomorrow," Qin Chuan said, sounding a little expectant.
He went with Zhao Han to find Old Luo and Palace Master Wu.
He found the two of them in low spirits. Old Luo was alright; since he couldn't go out, he could stay here. It was safe here anyway, but he was still a little worried.
After all, no one wanted to have their life in someone else's hands. The monks outside could kill them easily. If Qin Chuan wanted to, he could simply remove the formation and ignore them.
This feeling of insecurity was unpleasant.
But there was no way to change the situation now. Besides, this was already the best situation they could be in. If it weren't for Qin Chuan's help, he probably still wouldn't have any hope, and might still be enduring the insults from Young Master Bei Chu.
He could tolerate anyone's insults, but he couldn't tolerate Bei Chu Shao. He could tolerate no one else, but he had to tolerate Bei Chu Shao.
Because he wanted revenge, and to get revenge, he could only endure, bear everything before him, no matter how bad or painful.
Otherwise, everything he had done would be in vain, and even in death, he wouldn't find peace, he wouldn't die in peace.
He had no way out, and he didn't want to retreat, he wouldn't retreat even in death.
"Brother, tomorrow we'll go kill someone other than Bei Chu Shao. You should have a target by now," Qin Chuan said directly.
After all these years, if Lord Wu couldn't even do this, then he really didn't know whether he should help him or not.
Lord Wu nodded: "Yes, but now they're just waiting for us to leave, isn't that a bit reckless?" Lord Wu
wasn't afraid of death, he was just afraid of not completing the mission.
Qin Chuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, brother, we'll start the operation tomorrow."
Qin Chuan didn't want to wait any longer. Besides, this was just the beginning, and it would take a long time to finish. This period of time was the time it would take for him to enter the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.
It could take a year and a half, or even three to five years or more, but that's nothing to a martial artist; it's just a blink of an eye.
After agreeing on the plan, Qin Chuan and Zhao Han left. However, they didn't return to their lodgings, as night had fallen and the night market was just beginning.
Qin Chuan knew through the array that many people were monitoring the area.
But he had his own way of getting there; this place connected to another location, allowing him to travel directly there.
This location wasn't far, but it wasn't close either, so safety was guaranteed.
Qin Chuan's current task was to investigate.
He had already confirmed his target with Hall Master Wu:
Young Master Kong of the City Lord's Mansion.
In this city, even the City Lord's Mansion was nothing compared to the Bei Chu family, so Young Master Kong was naturally much lower in rank than Young Master Bei Chu, usually following him in committing numerous evil deeds.
Safety was assured, and it would also enhance his own prestige; all he had to do was follow Young Master Bei Chu and cheer him on.
He doesn't need to give anything in return; he just needs to help this young master Bei find beautiful women or fun things—anything is fine.
He's a playboy, so naturally he should do playboy things.
