C3 Hope Shattered

Upon hearing this, Qin Hao clenched his fists tightly, feeling extremely nervous.

"Little Hao'er, this is Elder Lee." Yue Feng turned to Qin Hao and introduced him, "Elder Lee is from a super sect in the continent, a higher level than Tianxuan Country."

"Greetings, Elder Lee!"

Qin Hao cupped his hands and bowed. He was neither rude nor flattering.

After hearing Yue Feng's introduction, he had more confidence in Elder Lee.

Yue Feng was just an ordinary general in Tianxuan Country.

Tianxuan Country was thousands of kilometers wide and had dozens of provinces. Every one of them had a commander. Yue Feng was just the most ordinary of them all.

To Qin Hao who had never left the Tian Mo Province, the Tianxuan Country was a huge entity.

The sect that Elder Lee was in was even bigger than the Tianxuan Country. It was a super sect that ruled the entire continent. It must be even more powerful than the Tianxuan Country. He yearned for Elder Lee's sect very much.

If he could cultivate, he had to join Elder Lee's sect.

"Show Elder Lee your recent martial arts and let him give you some pointers." Yue Feng said.

"Yes!"

Qin Hao nodded and began to show off the martial arts he had learned recently.

Under the hall, Qin Hao's body was strong and vigorous. He was very familiar with each movement. Every movement felt like flowing water and flowing water. Very quickly, he finished displaying the basic fist technique.

He retracted his fist and stood up. He was quick and agile.

"Ying girl, what do you think?" Elder Lee asked the girl in the hall.

"Ha!" The young girl smiled contemptuously and said, "It's just some superficial martial arts. It's slightly stronger than ordinary people, but compared to martial artists, it's a far cry."

This young girl's name was Shen Ying. She was Elder Lee's disciple. She had followed Elder Lee for more than a year.

"Haha!" Yue Feng smiled and said, "My nephew has never been able to cultivate. He is definitely not as good as Elder Lee. With Elder Lee's guidance, you must be very knowledgeable."

"I have several ways to kill him in an instant!" Shen Ying pointed at Qin Hao.

Qin Hao was secretly angry when he heard her. This little girl looked younger than him, but she was so rude when she spoke. She did not care about his feelings at all.

"Ying Er is now at the intermediate Martial Disciple realm, and her cultivation base is very stable. She will soon break through again." Elder Lee said proudly.

"She is a famous disciple." Yue Feng agreed.

Elder Lee looked proud. Shen Ying was the daughter of an old friend of his.

A year ago, Elder Lee's old friend was seriously injured and on the verge of death. He knew he was not going to die soon, so he brought his daughter to entrust him with a funeral. Not long after that, he died. After that, Shen Ying became Elder Lee's disciple.

Shen Ying could be considered a cultivation genius. In just a year, she had reached the intermediate Martial Disciple realm and was about to break through. Elder Lee had found a treasure and was very interested in her.

No wonder she was so arrogant.

"Come, let me see your physique."

Elder Lee took out a jade plate. It was the size of an ordinary bowl and was engraved with magical symbols. It was an ancient text that Qin Hao had never seen before. Moreover, it had an ancient aura, as if it was an ancient object.

"This is a testing jade plate refined by the sect. It can detect a person's talent." Elder Lee dragged the jade plate with one hand and said, "Put your hand on it and close your eyes to sense it carefully."

Qin Hao walked forward and did as he was told.

He was very nervous and his hands were shaking.

"Relax!" Elder Lee said in a deep voice.

Qin Hao took a deep breath and adjusted his condition. He gradually calmed down. He put his hand on the jade plate and closed his eyes.

At the same time, Elder Lee stretched out his hand and pointed. Threads of Yuan energy emerged from his fingertip and shot into the jade plate. The symbols on the plate suddenly emitted a white light. Then, they followed Qin Hao's palm and entered his body.

"Wu."

Qin Hao suddenly stood up from his arm. It was as if there were small bugs crawling inside his body. Accompanied by a slight pain, they began to spread throughout his entire body until all his limbs and bones were filled with this feeling.

About ten breaths later, the feeling in his body receded like a tide. Qin Hao had completely returned to normal.

Crack!

The jade plate emitted a cracking sound. The white light disappeared and returned to normal. After that, a series of clear cracks appeared on the jade plate.

"It's done." Elder Lee's voice was a little tired. His eyes stared intently at the jade plate. He did not speak for a long time. Gradually, his brows tightly knitted together as he bitterly thought about something.

Qin Hao was shocked. He did not know what was wrong with the broken jade plate, but it was obviously abnormal.

His breathing was a little rapid as he stared at Elder Lee.

He was waiting for the result.

After a long while, Elder Lee shook his head and sighed. There was a hint of regret in his sigh.

"How is it?" Yue Feng was nervous. He only sat on half of his butt in his chair. He leaned toward Elder Lee and asked nervously.

Initially, this incident had already happened to the Qin Family, and it had dealt a huge blow to Qin Hao.

If there was no hope today, he really did not know how Qin Hao would face it.

He knew that this was Qin Hao's last hope.

"Trash." Elder Lee said disappointedly.

"Boom!"

The word 'trash' sounded like thunder in Qin Hao's ears. He felt as if his entire body was in a state of confusion, and he was almost unable to stand steadily.

"Is there really no other way?" Yue Feng still didn't give up and asked.

Elder Lee shook his head slightly and said, "He is not suitable for cultivation. His body does not have any attributes and he does not have any Qi. He is the symbol of a waste. It is difficult to cure him with pills."

"This..." Yue Feng choked.

Qin Hao was stunned for a moment.

Was his last hope still destroyed?

Why?

If something happened to the Qin family, his path of cultivation would be cut off, and there was no hope at all. How could she accept it?

In an instant, Qin Hao's eyes were wet, but in the end, he held back his tears. He knew that the world did not believe in tears. Only strength was real.

Pain, despair.

"In my opinion, it's better for him to be an ordinary person. With your protection, I believe he can live a life without worry." Elder Lee suggested, "As the commander of the Tian Mo Province, you should be able to protect him. This is the best outcome."

Yue Feng nodded with an indifferent expression.

Even if Qin Hao could not cultivate, he could do the same as Qin Hao's father. Business is a better way out. With his care, Qin Hao would definitely be able to live a peaceful life and have children.

Furthermore, becoming a martial artist was not necessarily a good thing.

"Hao'er, you should stop worrying. In the future, learn how to do business." Yue Feng finally said.

Qin Hao lowered his head. He frowned and did not answer. He clenched his fists and stood where he was.

Drip! Drip!

His nails pierced through his palm. Blood flowed down his fist and fell to the ground, making a soft sound.

Elder Lee and Yue Feng were both at the Martial Master level. Naturally, they could feel it. However, no one tried to persuade Qin Hao. This was his own hurdle. Outsiders could not help him pass.

Even Elder Lee felt that it was a pity.

He could see that Qin Hao's foundation was very solid. If Qin Hao could cultivate, he might be a good seedling, but he had no other choice. Qin Hao did not have any attributes or Qi, so he could not cultivate.

Qin Hao had no fate with cultivation in the end.

"Go back and rest first!" Yue Feng ordered. "Call Leng Feng over and let Elder Lee give him some pointers."

Leng Feng was the servant who came to Tianmo City with Qin Hao. He was adopted by Qin Hao's father, almost like his own son. He could be considered Qin Hao's brother.

"Yes!" Qin Hao cupped his hands and left the hall.

Qin Hao went to call Leng Feng and returned to his room. The door was closed and he sat cross-legged on his bed. He closed his eyes and rested.

An hour later, Leng Feng excitedly came to Qin Hao's room and brought good news.

After Elder Lee's test, Leng Feng actually had a rare wood attribute, and was a good seedling for cultivation. He also proposed to take Leng Feng as a disciple, but was rejected by Leng Feng.

This was because Leng Feng knew that Qin Hao couldn't cultivate. Once he left with Elder Lee, he didn't know if he would be able to meet again in the future.

The path of cultivation was dangerous. It would be very difficult for martial artists to interact with ordinary people in the future.

"You should agree." Qin Hao said.

"If I go with Elder Lee, it will be hard for us to see each other again. I can't bear to part with Brother Hao." Leng Feng smiled and said, "Just like Brother Hao, there is nothing wrong with being an ordinary person."

Qin Hao was very grateful, but he could not be selfish.

He had already made his decision. He would leave quietly tonight without alerting anyone.
