Chapter 121: Chapter 78 A Person_3

Qin Ming couldn’t refute or disguise it because that night, Li Qingyue had seen him.

"Causing trouble for Uncle Meng."

"Sit down, it’s nothing. The former City Lord Ling Xu and I have both been wanting to clean up that place, only we wanted to lure out that Golden Thief first."

After Qin Ming sat down, he said, "I was impulsive and disrupted Uncle Meng’s arrangements."

Meng Xinghai smiled and said, "Having passion is a good thing, it’s rare for you to have this kind of heart. There are other ways to lure the Golden Thief, and I really hope you can maintain this sincerity, instead of being like some juniors who although have extraordinary talents, but...sigh!"

"Since Uncle Meng says so, then I will definitely live up to the expectations. Mm, just now..." Qin Ming directly spoke of what he had seen on the road.

Meng Xinghai did not expect him to be so pure and genuine, his words matching his actions. But after some thought, even if this was just a throwaway piece, having been influenced by the dye vat of the Cui Family, he couldn’t possibly be that naive anymore.

Even, he had realized, this young man was very mature, not like a raw youth.

"Since you have this intention, then help me with some things. Look into those situations, and when necessary, you can take action. I give you this authority." Meng Xinghai threw him a token, which was quite straightforward.

Then he asked, "Tell me, what’s your business with me?"

"I came to thank Uncle Meng for the help at the edge of the wasteland last time." Qin Ming said.

"Just thanking me alone?"

"And Qing Yue, I know she must have spoken on my behalf." Qin Ming’s tone was sincere.

"Hm, you indeed guessed right." Meng Xinghai nodded.

Qin Ming said, "I would also like to trouble Uncle Meng to inquire about some information."

Meng Xinghai listened quietly and then was surprised, as he was not asking about the matters of the Cui family but just wanted to know where his grandfather had gone in the past.

Meng Xinghai said, "You’re really putting me on the spot. Even if I go to ask, the Cui Family probably won’t tell me the real news. Unless I see Cui Lao qi, but he is mostly unreachable now, as he is currently in the Outer World."

"Don’t you have any doubts about your experience in the Cui family?" Meng Xinghai couldn’t help asking.

Qin Ming sighed, "I used to have some, but now I’ve worked through them. There should be a real Cui Chonghe, who has to step into the limelight."

Meng Xinghai was amazed and said, "No wonder some people in the Cui Family are wary of you, afraid with your exceptional talent, if you were to rise, knowing the causes and consequences, you would bear a grudge and stir up some storms. They’ve not underestimated you."

He showed a look of surprise and said, "Caught in the midst of it all, with limited knowledge and hindered by the fog, yet you could also discern most of the truth, which is indeed quite remarkable."

"Did I guess some parts wrong?" Qin Ming asked.

"Not wrong, just that you don’t know." Meng Xinghai didn’t hide anything, and while drinking tea, he shared some details.

Cui Chonghe wasn’t trying to come forward on his own, but rather someone in the Outer World had discovered anomalies, and as he aged, he increasingly resembled Master Cui.

Most crucially, someone noticed he had secret correspondence with the Cui Family.

"So, it seems that as we grew up, the difference in our appearance became quite significant, only resembling each other slightly in our youth." Qin Ming mused to himself.

"Additionally, Cui Chonghe’s teacher has finished his retreat, and even with the various powers entrenched in the Outer World, no one would dare to harm this son of the Cui Family now."

"His teacher is very formidable?" Qin Ming couldn’t help asking.

"Hm, it is said that previously, Cui Chonghe’s senior brother had been teaching on behalf of his teacher, who has been in closed-door cultivation. Now he’s succeeded in taking half a step forward, his Daoist achievements are unfathomable, and has officially taken Cui Chonghe as his Closed-door Disciple, with no intention of taking others, cherishing him like a treasure."

Qin Ming was somewhat silent upon hearing this; people’s encounters differed greatly.

"The Cui Family doesn’t let you return to Qinghe City, nor go to Qianxing City, and they even wanted to cut off your Newborn Road, indeed because the rightful person got exposed."

Meng Xinghai told him that the Wang family of Qianxing City was very angry and extremely dissatisfied, having been deceived about the real Cui Chonghe they had met before.

Qin Ming smiled bitterly, wondering if the Wang Family also held a grudge against him?

"Cui Chonghe himself is also discontent, knowing about you traveling with the Wang family’s legitimate daughter, hm, someone saw in the Outer World, he lost his temper during that period."

Now, Qin Ming really felt like drawing his sword. Why should he? All sides reached an understanding, and in the end, it all became his problem, bearing all the hardships.
