Martial Arts Crossover: It All Started with Hijacking Li Canghai

Li Qingluo breathed a sigh of relief, but then Wang Yuyan added another sentence.

"My cousin...he's not like that!"

"Oh?" Qin Han raised an eyebrow, a smile spreading across his face. "What kind of person isn't he? Isn't he a hypocrite who would sacrifice everything, including exploiting your feelings, for a vague dream of restoring his kingdom?"

"No!" Wang Yuyan retorted weakly, "My cousin... he's still very good to me."

"Being good to you?" Qin Han couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"He's good to you, but he hasn't proposed to your family yet. Is he just keeping you as a backup plan, a treasure trove of martial arts techniques that he can draw upon at any time?"

Wang Yuyan didn't understand what a backup plan was, but Qin Han's words really hit a nerve with her.

Li Qingluo had said these words to her countless times.

"I...I..." Wang Yuyan was speechless for a moment, her red and swollen eyes misting over again.

Tears welled up in the girl's eyes. Everyone around her spoke ill of Murong Fu, and she naturally thought about it carefully, realizing that Murong Fu was not a good match for her.

But it's like being a fangirl. Wang Yuyan has known this perfect male god image since she was a child, but as they got older, more and more people around them revealed negative things about their male god.

Wang Yuyan wasn't really stubborn; she just couldn't accept the collapse of her idol right away.

"She's such a silly, adorable girl." Qin Han shook his head, his smile gradually fading.

There's no time to play any gentle persuasion games with the fairy sister right now.

Some fantasies can only be shattered in a cruel way to make her face reality.

Li Qingluo watched from the side, anxious but not daring to interrupt.

Qin Hanchao walked towards Wang Yuyan.

Wang Yuyan instinctively stepped back, but Li Qingluo was right behind her, leaving her nowhere to retreat.

"What...what do you want to do?" Wang Yuyan's voice was choked with emotion.

Qin Han was speechless. Why was he crying again?

Since that's the case, why not try experiencing the fun of being a villain and reach out to pinch the other person's delicate chin?

He forced Wang Yuyan to raise her head and look him in the eye.

The force from her chin forced Wang Yuyan to tilt her head back.

"You..." Wang Yuyan's pretty face turned red and she looked aggrieved.

"Look into my eyes," Qin Han said in a deep voice.

"You think your cousin is a good person?"

"If he's really capable, he'll come and take you back."

"No...no..." Wang Yuyan shook her head weakly, her eyes blurred with tears. How could this be? Murong Fu wasn't stupid.

Is this from a trap?!

Qin Han's face slowly drew closer, their noses almost touching.

Staring into Wang Yuyan's evasive eyes: "From today onwards, you belong to the Qin Prince's Mansion!"

"If I were to find out that you still dare to harbor any unrealistic fantasies about Murong Fu..."

Qin Han's voice suddenly turned chilling.

"I wouldn't mind letting you see for yourself how the Murong family of Gusu disappeared from the martial world!"

"No! Don't!" Wang Yuyan blurted out instinctively upon hearing this.

She can disregard her own feelings, but she can't let this drag her cousin down with her!

"Looks like you still didn't understand." A hint of impatience flashed in Qin Han's eyes. Why was he secretly pleased with himself for bullying a young girl like this for the first time?!

Let me put it more clearly.

"If you behave yourself in the Prince's mansion, I will guarantee you and your mother a lifetime of wealth and honor."

"But if you dare to contemplate suicide or do anything irrational..."

Qin Han's gaze swept over the servants of Mantuo Manor in the courtyard.

"Many people will be buried with your love!"

Wang Yuyan's body went limp; if Qin Han hadn't been holding her chin, she probably would have collapsed to the ground.

Burial with...

Now I understand how fragile and ridiculous love is in the face of absolute power.

"Yu Yan... Yu Yan understands... She will never mention... Murong Fu again."

The girl's voice was soft and choked with sobs, like that of a respectable young woman who had been targeted by a bully.

Seeing the compromise in Wang Yuyan's eyes, Qin Han felt quite pleased. Threatening a naive girl for the first time was actually pretty good.

He let go of her hand, allowing Li Qingluo to support him.

He turned and walked out of the courtyard.

As he brushed past Cheng Ying, he gave her a subtle, almost imperceptible glance.

Cheng Ying cursed inwardly, understanding Qin Han's meaning.

One plays the good cop, the other the bad cop.

Qin Lang used the most direct method to break down her younger sister's psychological defenses, and the subsequent work of comforting and guiding her was now left to her, the older sister.

She glanced helplessly at the departing figure of someone.

After Qin Han left, Li Qingluo breathed a sigh of relief, while Wang Yuyan leaned against her mother's chest, her eyes glazed over.

Cheng Ying took out a clean handkerchief from her bosom and wiped away the tears on the other person's face.

"Little sister, don't be afraid."

Cheng Ying's voice was gentle: "There are some things you may not understand now. But as time goes by, you will understand that Brother Qin... he is actually a very good person."

Wang Yuyan looked at the gentle and graceful woman in front of her, her lips moved, but she ultimately didn't say anything.

Perhaps, perhaps what my mother and this older sister said was right, and I should let it go.

……

Qin Han arrived at the study in the Prince's mansion.

He quickly gave instructions to the guards outside.

"Summon Yang Xiao, Xu Xingzhi, Li Jing, Xiao Feng, Qin Qiong, Dong Tianbao, Zhang Junbao, Su Xinghe, Xue Muhua and others to come for a meeting."

"yes!"

The guards obeyed and left.

Before long, several key civil and military officials of the Prince's Mansion gathered together in the study.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

"Please sit down," Qin Han gestured to everyone, indicating that there was no need for formalities.

After everyone was seated, Qin Han got straight to the point.

"I have gathered you all here today to announce something important."

"I have decided to personally visit the Qing Dynasty tomorrow."

"What?!"

"Your Highness, you mustn't!"

Li Jing, who was always calm and composed, was the first to stand up and object, and Xiao Feng echoed him, feeling that the matter was too risky.

"Your Highness, you are now the ruler of Shu, a man of noble birth, and should not risk your life! The capital of the Qing Dynasty is a place of many dangerous people; how can you personally take such a risk? Please reconsider this matter!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Qin Qiong chimed in, "Why must Your Highness go in person? If there is anything to be done, you may send this humble general."

The Dong brothers, Tianbao and Junbao, remained silent, but their disapproval was evident.

Su Xinghe and Xue Muhua, the master and apprentice, didn't think there was any problem. Recently, the Eight Friends of Hangu Pass have been looking for suitable talents to fill the vacancies in Sichuan.

With the power of their own sect leader—no, now it's their own king—they truly have the strength to go anywhere in the world.

Yang Xiao and Xu Xingzhi exchanged a glance, their eyes also filled with surprise and doubt.

They knew that the prince had agreed to the Heaven and Earth Society, but they didn't expect that the prince would be going there so soon!

Qin Han raised his hand to silence the crowd.

"I understand. But I must go there myself to handle this matter."

Looking at everyone, he slowly said, "My trip is not merely to cooperate with the anti-Qing forces in the north to assassinate Ao Bai."

Everyone was taken aback by what they heard.

Is there some other purpose behind it?

Xu Xingzhi waved his feather fan, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes, and asked cooperatively, "Does Your Highness mean that the assassination of Ao Bai is merely a pretext?"

"Not bad." Qin Han nodded approvingly.

"Killing Ao Bai might cause some internal turmoil in the Qing Dynasty, but it would bring limited benefits to my Sichuan region."
