Chapter 128: Hosting Advisor Wang

In the Qin Family banquet hall, Servants in groups of two or three served dishes, while several maidservants poured wine for the guests.

The members of the Qin Family and Advisor Wang sat before the banquet table.

"This must be the Young Master of the Qin Family, Qin Ming, right?"

Advisor Wang looked toward Qin Ming and asked.

"Indeed, he is my son."

Qin Yuan laughed heartily.

"Oh?" Advisor Wang raised his wine cup and said, "I have long heard of the Qin Family Young Master's great name. To have the honor of meeting you today, I toast you."

"I have long heard of the Qin Family Young Master's great name. To have the honor of meeting you today, I toast you."

How could Qin Ming allow a guest to toast him? Moreover, Advisor Wang was much older than him. Thus, Qin Ming quickly raised his wine cup and said:

"Advisor Wang, this cup of wine should be toasted by me, your Junior. You have traveled a great distance to deliver the appointment documents; this cup must be drunk."

Advisor Wang looked at the eloquent and extraordinary Qin Ming before him, nodding inwardly.

A great reputation is never unearned; this Qin Ming, praised by the Seventh Prince, was indeed extraordinary to be able to help Qin Father become the City Lord of Liu City.

He even felt as if he were facing the Seventh Prince—equally young and promising, equally extraordinary in speech.

"Then I shall not be polite!"

With that, Advisor Wang downed a large gulp of wine.

"Good!" Qin Yuan shouted, "Everyone, let us toast Advisor Wang together."

Qin Yuan had already seen that Advisor Wang intended to associate with the Qin Family, and he was naturally happy to be on good terms with him.

Normally, Advisor Wang wouldn't think much of the Qin Family; he was a man close to the Seventh Prince with a limitless future.

The reason he was willing to associate with the Qin Family was entirely for the sake of Qin Ming's Face.

The Seventh Prince thought very highly of Qin Ming, believing that sooner or later, he would stir the winds and clouds of the continent.

Because of the Seventh Prince's view, Advisor Wang had gathered some intelligence on Qin Ming and only then realized just how formidable he was.

The Wang Family and Chen Family were both century-old clans in Liu City. Yet, such Powers were uprooted by Qin Ming in a short period of time.

The Chen Family was completely wiped out, the Wang Family was subjugated, and the Ouyang Family was an ally of the Qin Family. In a short time, the entirety of Liu City had become the Qin Family's domain.

Most crucially, Qin Ming was able to form ties with the Jue Ming Pavilion and a Grand Alchemist. He himself was also a talented genius who had become an Alchemist.

'Young and promising' was not enough to describe Qin Ming. How could he not want to befriend such a person?

Given his usual personality, for a simple delivery, there would be no need for drinking; he would just take his benefits and leave.

While everyone was eating happily, a Servant ran in flustered. He found Qin Yuan and immediately walked over to whisper a few words into his ear.

Qin Yuan's expression changed drastically.

Advisor Wang naturally saw that something major had happened in the Qin Family and found it inconvenient to intrude, so he said:

"It is getting late, and I have had my fill of food and wine. Perhaps I shall visit again next time?"

Qin Yuan stood up and said:

"My apologies, something has happened at home. I will treat you to wine next time to make amends."

"Then I shall take my leave. Contact me if anything is needed."

Advisor Wang said.

"Qin Ming, go and see the Advisor out."

Qin Yuan said.

"Yes. Advisor Wang, I will see you out."

Qin Ming also stood up.

"Good, good!" Advisor Wang specifically wanted Qin Ming to see him out. Had he not attended this banquet just to meet Qin Ming?

Otherwise, where would he find the leisure time to drink? With his status, people everywhere invited him, and he wasn't even willing to go for most.

Watching Qin Ming and Advisor Wang leave, all the Elders present looked toward the Family Head.

This was the perfect time to build a relationship with Advisor Wang, yet Qin Yuan had sent him away. There must be something incredibly significant, even more important than Advisor Wang.

How could they not be shocked by something more important than Advisor Wang?
