Chapter 4125 - 4144: Qi Family’s Little Princess

"Mr. Xu, we want to settle down on Emperor Star, but since we’re new arrivals and unfamiliar with the area, we came to ask for your advice. Can you give us any suggestions?"Xu Haicheng’s smile was sincere and proper: "That’s simple, everyone, please follow me."

People entered the room, and in a spacious reception area, after the waiter served tea, Xu Haicheng smiled and said: "I received information from my younger cousin a while ago saying that Mr. Lin’s family might come to Emperor Star for a tour. I’ve been waiting for you all, but it turns out it’s after ten years."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "We traveled all the way, staying a bit longer wherever we found enjoyable, and that’s how we ended up here now."

Xu Haicheng laughed: "Such travels are wonderful, letting one truly immerse in the local life and genuinely experiencing the local cultural lifestyle, instead of just a cursory glance."

After pausing, Xu Haicheng steered the conversation back on track: "Mr. Lin, what’s your purpose for settling down? Is it temporary residence, long-term settlement, or something else?"

Lin Chen answered candidly: "Originally, we were just traveling and have been living in hotels, not planning to stay here long-term, but due to some unforeseen events, I got a job, so temporarily, I might not be able to leave Emperor Star."

"Since we plan to stay for a while, we can’t just keep living in hotels. Hotels are nice, but it’s more comfortable being in your own room, which is why we’re seeking your help on where to settle."

After a pause, Lin Chen added: "Not sure if Qingchuan told you about our situation..."

Xu Haicheng smiled and said: "He briefly mentioned it, noting you’re his cultivation teacher and a friend, and advised me to assist you to the best of my ability if you need anything."

"Since you’re planning to reside long-term and have instant travel abilities, staying a bit further shouldn’t be a concern. By the way, Mr. Lin, where do you go to work?"

Lin Chen casually replied: "Security Bureau."

Xu Haicheng’s expression froze; he leaned in two degrees, seemingly questioning his hearing: "Security Bureau?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes."

Xu Haicheng sat upright, eyes wide, taking a breath: "First District Security Bureau branch?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Hmm, Team Leader is Qiu Chan, do you know her?"

Xu Haicheng replied, shocked: "Know, of course, know! Who on Emperor Star doesn’t know her!"

Lin Chen was somewhat surprised: "Is she that famous?"

Xu Haicheng looked at Lin Chen, his gaze complex: "Extremely famous, the most cherished granddaughter of the Qi Family Master, a Level 9 Martial Artist, a renowned Female War Goddess, Iron Blood Rose."

Qi Family?

Thinking about the Wei Family, Lin Chen asked: "Is the Qi Family powerful, are they one of the Thirty-six Elite Families on Emperor Star?"

Xu Haicheng nodded: "Mr. Lin knows about the Thirty-six Elite Families? Indeed, the Qi Family is one of them, and part of the Upper Twelve Gates."

Seeing Lin Chen’s expression puzzled, Xu Haicheng actively explained: "The Thirty-six Elite Families are the thirty-six most powerful forces on Emperor Star, mostly family forces, and few are alliance forces led by certain individuals."

"Though all Thirty-six Elite Families are incredibly powerful, there’s still a distinction in power among them. So later, someone categorized them into three levels based on their overall strength: Upper Twelve Gates, Middle Twelve Gates, Lower Twelve Gates."

"The Qi Family is one of the Upper Twelve Gates, true Federation top powers. However, Qiu Chan’s fame isn’t just because she’s everyone’s beloved Qi Family Little Princess, but for her extraordinary talent as a Martial Artist."

"Qiu Chan was famously a martial path genius from a young age, or perhaps demon-like might be more fitting."

"She excelled since childhood, growing up to not only surpass her peers but leaving generations behind as well, conquering all without fail."

"In her prime, she chose to join the military, appearing frequently in military reports, completing numerous extremely dangerous tasks. Later, she left the military to join the Security Bureau, becoming a Level 9 Martial Artist, in charge of the First District Security Bureau branch."

"Here, her legend continues. To date, three very well-known Level 9 Martial Artists have been defeated by her, and many are guessing if she’s invincible at Level 9."

"Although she’s a woman, she acts decisively, striking ruthlessly against villains with no mercy, coupled with her military background, hence she’s called Iron Blood Rose..."

At this point, Xu Haicheng couldn’t hold back his curiosity: "The Security Bureau is a crucial department, not something just anyone can enter. Mr. Lin, you’re a new arrival; how did you get into the Security Bureau?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "We hadn’t been here long before being schemed against by the Wei Family Master. After fighting him, Qiu Chan appeared, preventing his plan against me, then invited me to join the Security Bureau, saying this way, others wouldn’t dare act against me easily..."

Xu Haicheng realized the key points immediately, given his job required a keen mind.

Wei Family!

Being one of the Thirty-six Elite Families, Wei Family plotting against Lin Chen and the others must be due to their unique ability and status, and Qiu Chan’s sudden appearance to rescue them was naturally because of this.

Perhaps precisely because of this, Qiu Chan extended an exceptional invitation for Lin Chen to join the Security Bureau.

Wei Family coercing Lin Chen and the others, apparently using coercive measures to force them into submission, and Qiu Chan seized the opportunity, recruiting Lin Chen using a Security Bureau position.

No wonder she’s Iron Blood Rose, her rank isn’t at all inferior to the Wei Family Master.

Lin Chen casually asked: "Is Wei Family Upper, Middle, or Lower Tier?"

Xu Haicheng replied: "Wei Family is one of the Lower Twelve Gates; there are rumors that Wei Family wants to ally with Qi Family through marriage..."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "Yes, it’s because of the marriage that kid ran into us, resulting in a conflict."

Xu Haicheng nodded, refraining from further inquiry about specifics, and quickly offered his professional opinion.

"Since you’re working at the Security Bureau, you can consider buying a house on a Suspended Island. It’s away from the city’s noise and hustle, suitable for the identity and mindset of cultivators like yourselves. Although it’s slightly distant from the Security Bureau, I imagine that’s not an issue for you."

Lin Chen asked curiously: "Distance isn’t an issue, but is the Suspended Island you’re referring to the type I think of, hovering in midair..."
