Yun Kun could tell that his father was truly angry, so he could only suppress his resentment and nod in agreement.

"Dad, let me prepare myself mentally for a couple of days."

Yun Kun spoke, his eyes flickering.

Making him beg Qin Yang for mercy would be worse than killing him, considering that Qin Yang had almost destroyed his manhood.

He hated Qin Yang to the core, wishing he could tear Qin Yang to pieces!

Yun Tianlong didn't think too much about it, assuming that Yun Kun had figured it out himself, so he nodded in agreement.

He knew his son hated Qin Yang to the core, but he believed that as long as he threatened his son with his status as the young master of the Yun family, his son would definitely submit.

He had no other choice; he couldn't drag his entire family into the abyss just for his son's sake.

However, he had no idea that what Yun Kun was about to do would plunge the entire Yun family into an abyss of no return.

...

Haicheng.

After thinking about it, Qin Yang decided to go find the family that had just caused trouble.

After he spoke with Shangguan Wan, she nodded in agreement, although she still believed in her heart that the Yun family was behind it. However, she still trusted Qin Yang.

Following the scent of the family he had just encountered, Qin Yang arrived at a shantytown.

As expected, this family was not wealthy or powerful.

"As expected, this kind of ill-gotten gains is not something our family can earn."

"It's all that person's fault for suddenly appearing; otherwise, we would have earned that 5 million long ago."

The family members spoke indignantly at home, harboring great resentment towards Qin Yang.

Just as Qin Yang was about to knock on the door and speak directly to the family, his gaze suddenly shifted to the corner of the stairs.

Qin Yang's gaze sharpened, and then he walked over.

He soon arrived at the entrance to a basement downstairs. The basement door was wide open, as if it had been waiting for him.

Qin Yang went inside without hesitation.

In the dimly lit basement, a thin-looking figure stood.

"You've arrived."

The man turned around to look at Qin Yang, a gentle smile on his lips.

He was a young man, who looked to be under 30, about the same age as Qin Yang.

"Who are you?"

Qin Yang frowned slightly, puzzled.

He was quite certain that he had never seen this young man before, nor did he know him, but why did this young man act so familiar with him?

"My name is Xue Gui, and I am the eldest son of the Xue family in Hai Province."

Xue Gui introduced himself with an air of arrogance.

Then, he looked at Qin Yang and asked, "May I ask if you would like to introduce yourself?"

Qin Yang frowned even more deeply; this young man didn't recognize him either.

"My name is Qin Yang. What brings you here?"

Qin Yang asked.

He could clearly sense that Xue Gui had deliberately lured him here.

"So it's Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin, you must be the one who gave the Shangguan family the beauty medicine formula."

Xue Gui's eyes flashed with an unusual light as he asked.

Qin Yang nodded indifferently and said detachedly, "So what if it is?"

Xue Gui, still smiling, said, "Mr. Qin, do you think the Shangguan family's power is enough to swallow up the profits brought by this beauty drug formula?"

"Just say what you want to do directly, why beat around the bush?"

Qin Yang vaguely guessed Xue Gui's purpose and spoke indifferently.

Xue Gui's smile froze, and a hint of displeasure appeared in his eyes.

He is the eldest young master of the Xue family, a renowned and powerful family in the cultivation world of Jiang Province. The Xue family boasts countless Innate Grandmasters and dozens of Transcendent Realm experts.

In the past, everyone was always respectful and cooperative when he spoke.

But Qin Yang showed him no respect whatsoever and refused to cooperate with him.

But considering his purpose, he suppressed his dissatisfaction.

“Mr. Qin, the Shangguan family definitely cannot swallow such a large sum of money. Only with the Xue family as our backing can the Shangguan family swallow such a large sum of money.”

Xue Gui spoke with absolute confidence.

Although the Xue family is a powerful force in the cultivation world, they have long since interfered in the secular world. They just use a fig leaf to cover it up and make the people of the secular world their puppets.

Given the Xue family's power, the Great Xia Dynasty turned a blind eye to this.

Those within their ranks had long ago discovered that the ingredients in the recipe released by the Shangguan family were clearly not something that could be made by ordinary people. They then suspected that the Shangguan family had a cultivator supporting them, and that the recipe was provided by that cultivator.

As expected, this test really got Qin Yang to figure things out.

In the Xue family's view, they would not refuse any cultivator who came to seek cooperation, as long as they were still in Hai Province.

This reflects confidence in the Xue family's strength.

"Oh, what percentage does your Xue family want?"

Qin Yang glanced at Xue Gui indifferently and said.

Xue Gui said proudly, "My Xue family will definitely take 70%; this is protection money as a form of shelter."

They could tell that the profit margin on this beauty drug was enormous, which was why they were asking so high; their bottom line was actually 50%. But when it comes to haggling, you naturally have to reveal your maximum asking price first.

In their view, whatever conditions they propose will be accepted.

However, Qin Yang sneered.

"You want to take 70% without contributing anything? Your Xue family is far too arrogant."

"We will not cooperate with your Xue family. Please leave."

Qin Yang spoke calmly.

After saying that, Qin Yang turned to leave.

"Mr. Qin, if the price is not right, we can discuss it further."

Xue Gui's eyes held a hint of gloom, but he still spoke with a smile.

He originally thought that if he could make Qin Yang submit this time, he could take the extra two layers for himself.

But Qin Yang refused, so he had no choice but to offer his bottom line of 50%.

"I've said we won't cooperate with anyone."

Qin Yang remained indifferent.

This group of so-called cultivators could be considered reclusive families, but in his eyes they were nothing more than a bunch of old fogies.

They want to seize a lot of benefits without doing anything.

Others would agree, but Qin Yang would not.

"Mr. Qin, please think this through. Without the Xue family, the Shangguan family is destined to face great difficulties in Hai Province."

Xuegui's face darkened completely, and he said threateningly.

"I never accept any threats."

After Qin Yang finished speaking, he walked straight out.

As they reached the doorway, two auras emerged from behind Xue Gui. Two men in black rushed to Qin Yang's side, their auras clearly those of the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm.

Qin Yang was not surprised. From the moment he stepped into the basement, he clearly sensed the presence of the two Xue family members who were at the mid-stage of the Transformation Realm.

"Mr. Qin, if you don't agree today, you might not even be able to leave this door."

Xue Gui completely dropped the act at this moment, his face now showing a threatening expression.
