That's reality. Often, we're powerless to change our circumstances, and it gradually becomes a habit—a trade-off.
The more you gain, the more you lose; the more you want to gain, the more you must be prepared to lose.
The scions of powerful families may seem glamorous, and they truly are, but glamour isn't permanent. Behind that glamour lies hardship that most people can't endure.
Ordinary people may seem unambitious, but they don't suffer much. For a scion of a powerful family, laziness and inaction make them the biggest spoiled brat. Lack of ambition, inability to endure hardship, and lack of effort make them a sinner against the family.
The more outstanding and dazzling one is, the more they pay the price. They enjoy what others cannot, and they must bear what others cannot.
To a certain extent, this is fair. Now, the descendants of the Murong family are bearing burdens that children from ordinary families wouldn't. Of course, this time it's the Murong family; the Yangshe family might face the same fate someday, or the situation might change. This time, it's the Yangshe family bearing the brunt.
So, don't envy others. When you envy others, they might be envying you. You envy someone for having a beautiful wife, but they might envy your good health...
Qin Chuan and Murong Baobao's group left to search for those elusive opportunities and to figure out how to deal with the Yangshe family.
This was the most important thing.
Murong Zhan was Murong Baobao's elder brother, and nominally the leader of the younger generation. He basically made the decisions in this operation.
The premise was that the War God Realm expert protecting them didn't come out. If he did, then they would have to listen to that War God Realm expert.
Ahead were rolling mountains, and the sound of waves kept coming.
Suddenly, Murong Zhan stopped. The
Murong family members all looked ahead.
Qin Chuan was also stunned. Could it be so soon? Was the battle going to start so soon? But why was he a little excited?
The spiritual energy absorbed from the previous even distribution of blessings was still in his body and hadn't changed yet. To put it bluntly, his body had stored up a lot of benefits, but it needed time to absorb them slowly. These things were useless now.
At this moment, a group of people appeared on the other side.
The Yangshe family.
It really was a direct confrontation. They had only just separated, yet the Yangshe family was already so impatient, so eager to kill them.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. With such an advantage, it's better to finish quickly and relax. They were bound to face each other sooner or later anyway. If they didn't meet again and failed the mission, their families would look down on them.
Yangshe Yun was among them, and he was watching Qin Chuan and Murong Baobao, his eyes fixed on Qin Chuan.
Yangshe Yun was a petty person; he harbored resentment for no reason. He was currently jealous of Qin Chuan,
even though there was practically no real conflict between them. It was because Qin Chuan and Murong Baobao were close, and Qin Chuan hadn't shown him the proper respect, hadn't acted like a grandson in his presence . This displeased him.
Perhaps another reason was Qin Chuan's image and demeanor. He disliked people being so composed in front of him; he enjoyed seeing someone like Qin Chuan become utterly insignificant in his presence.
The man leading the Yangshe family wasn't young, but he was the leader of this generation. His appearance was unremarkable, even somewhat shabby.
Extraordinary people and phenomena might look like this: each no more than 1.6 meters tall, with sparse, messy hair that flutters in the wind, triangular eyes, a flat nose, a large mouth, thick lips, and a goatee.
Such a person would be the ugliest among ordinary people, perhaps even unable to find a woman.
But he is a member of the Yangshe family, the leader of this generation. This time, he is leading the attack on the Murong family. As long as the food is delicious, even the hidden War God Realm experts are not allowed to interfere.
His name is Yangshe Jing. In his eyes, the current generation of the Murong family is truly vulnerable, so he doesn't want to use any underhanded tactics or waste time.
For him, it would be a distraction and a waste of time.
Murong Zhan's expression was solemn. The Murong family was at a disadvantage. Even in a clash of the younger generation, he was only a half-step War God Realm expert, but his opponents were several half-step War God Realm experts.
If a fight breaks out, our side will be at a great disadvantage. We'll have to face them from both sides, because even if our own War God Realm experts intervene, it won't be useful. The Yangshe family's War God Realm experts will hold them off immediately.
So the current situation is actually very dangerous, and perhaps the next moment a battle breaks out, and soon our people will all be buried here and completely disappear.
When people are truly facing life and death, it's hard to remain calm. This is why people who are not afraid of death are so precious and powerful.
Murong Baobao didn't show any fear. Her strength was quite weak, much weaker than Qin Chuan's. Normally, she should be the most afraid.
"Are you afraid?" Qin Chuan asked with a smile.
Murong Baobao shook her head at the calm Qin Chuan, then asked curiously, "You don't seem afraid either?"
"These people on the other side are really no match for me. Why should I be afraid?" Qin Chuan smiled at Murong Baobao.
"Uncle, what time is it? Still bragging." Murong Baobao said weakly.
"Everyone, prepare for battle." Murong Zhan's voice was not loud.
After speaking, everyone quickly entered a battle state.
The opposing side also entered a battle state, and the two sides were about to clash. Any idle talk or words of provocation were superfluous and unnecessary.
Yang Sheyun looked at Qin Chuan again, his smile tinged with cruelty—a kind of excitement. Qin Chuan, however, continued to smile at him, even giving him a look as if he were a fool.
This look enraged Yang Sheyun, who glared fiercely at Qin Chuan, ready to charge at him without hesitation the moment the battle began.
*Whoosh! Whoosh!
* The formations activated!
Both sides activated their formations almost simultaneously. The Yang She family's formation was a ferocious white tiger, while the Murong family's was a snow-white giant wolf.
The massive formations enveloped the area, radiating intense spiritual energy and a ferocious aura, making those within feel their blood boil and their spirits rise to a new level. "
Not bad!"
Qin Chuan was quite knowledgeable about formations; so far, no one had surpassed his formations, and those that did were significantly inferior.
Not only that, Qin Chuan also possessed even more powerful array divine positions than array formations, though their number was limited, but still quite considerable.
Weaken!
At this moment, Qin Chuan could no longer hesitate. He silently summoned his demonic beast, simultaneously weakening it with his divine eye's immortal might.
And the timing was perfect.
Just as the two clashed...
At this moment, Yang Sheyun had arrived not far from Qin Chuan, and Murong Baobao was pulled behind Qin Chuan.
