Chapter 248 The Storm Passes By



The speed of a Yuanfu Realm expert is incredibly fast.

As his figure swept past, a sound of energy tearing through the air rang out.

Old Mo had already anticipated Ouyang Yu's thoughts. After taking a step forward, black patterns shot out from his hand and directly attached themselves to Ouyang Yu's body.

"ah!"

The moment Ouyang Yu was parasitized by the black patterns, he roared in pain, and his figure, which was originally rushing towards Qin Xin, stopped abruptly.

"Old man Mo! You actually used the Netherworld Death Seal! Now you'll die too!"

Ouyang Yu hurriedly circulated all his Yuan energy, trying to stop the black patterns from eroding him, but it was a drop in the ocean. The black patterns were like maggots clinging to his bones, constantly absorbing his Yuan energy after entering his body and growing rapidly.

"I was already nearing the end of my life, so taking you with me before I die isn't a bad deal!" At this moment, the black patterns on Old Mo's body were also unable to be suppressed, spreading upwards along his neck, and black patterns also appeared in his pair of old eyes.

"Click!"

Just after Mo Lao took a step, Ouyang Yu's head slowly fell to the ground.

I'm not reconciled!

That look seemed to be fixed in Ouyang Yu's eyes. The top expert of Tianyuan City had died here. He was unwilling, but he was powerless to do anything about it.

Qin Xin was also somewhat moved by Ouyang Yu's death.

After everything was resolved, when Elder Mo walked slowly over, Qin Xin could feel the death aura emanating from him. His life essence had completely dissipated, and he could perish at any moment.

"Come find me at the Martial Arts Hall after you've dealt with this." After walking up to Qin Xin, Elder Mo left these words and departed. However, before leaving, he looked Liu Lin up and down, his eyes filled with a warning.

Sensing Mo Lao's immense power, capable of directly killing a Yuanfu Realm expert, Liu Lin dared not say anything more.

After the Zhennan Prefecture troops arrived, Liu Lin immediately ordered the elimination of all members of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group, and Tianyuan City would be temporarily taken over by the Zhennan Prefecture.

In an instant, the entire Tianyuan City was plunged into another fierce battle. Many members of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group refused to believe that their leader and others were dead and continued to resist stubbornly until they saw Ouyang Yu's corpse hanging above the city gate of Tianyuan City. Only then did they believe the truth.

The once-powerful Ironblood Mercenary Group was decimated; some died, others fled.

The turmoil ended dramatically in Tianyuan City, and after this incident, Qin Xin's name became a household name throughout the city.

To monopolize a Yuanfu Realm expert and even injure one—such terrifying potential is something no one in the entire Eastern Wilderness can achieve in the Qi Opening Realm.

Inside the Qin Clan Manor, some clansmen are cleaning up and rebuilding the collapsed buildings. In just a few days, the Qin Clan Manor, which was like a ruin, has begun to take shape for reconstruction.

Inside the council hall, Liu Lin stood with a group of Zhennan Prefecture troops, their imposing aura making everyone hesitant to make any significant moves.

Seeing this, Qin Xin could only smile helplessly. These people were all Shui Qingxi's people, and he couldn't say anything.

In recent days, Liu Lin's subordinates have had many clashes with the Qin clan, most of which ended with the Tianyuan Qin clan suffering losses. Even the Iron Blood Mercenary Group's treasury fell into Liu Lin's hands.

Although the Qin clan of Tianyuan achieved final victory, they also suffered enormous losses.

"Commander Liu, now that my clan's affairs are settled, you should leave." Qin Qianfan, who had recovered considerably, looked at the somewhat arrogant Liu Lin and felt dissatisfied. He had been harboring a lot of anger for the past few days.

"Oh? So you're trying to drive us away?" Liu Lin raised an eyebrow and said disdainfully.

Seeing Liu Lin's rudeness, Shui Qingxi was also a little angry and stopped him, saying, "Liu Lin! You can't be so rude."

"Yes!" Liu Lin said with a light laugh, "However, Miss, the Prince has instructed that you return to Zhennan Prefecture as soon as possible."

"Alright, I understand." Shui Qingxi was very impatient with Liu Lin's words, as if she had no intention of returning to Zhennan Prefecture.

Liu Lin seemed unwilling to give up and continued, "Miss, you probably can't go against the Prince's decision."

"Liu Lin, you've gone too far!" Shui Qingxi was also a little angry when she saw Liu Lin discussing her affairs like this, and she slammed her hand on the table and said angrily.

Seeing that Shui Qingxi was angry, Liu Lin shrugged and said, "I was just following orders."

"Alright, Liu Lin." Xia Tong, who was drinking tea nearby, stopped Liu Lin, somewhat displeased.

Seeing Xia Tong's reaction, Liu Lin dared not say anything more, seemingly out of fear of Xia Tong's identity.

"Uncle Qianfan, I'm preparing to leave today. My father probably wants me to return for some matters." Shui Qingxi said goodbye as the crisis of the Tianyuan Qin Clan had been resolved.

Qin Qianfan had intended to keep Shui Qingxi for a few more days, but upon hearing her say goodbye, he glanced at Qin Xin, who was drinking tea nearby, and said, "You brat! She's about to leave, and you didn't even try to stop her."

"What's there to persuade her to stay? Sister Qingxi naturally has her own plans," Qin Xin said nonchalantly.

Seeing Qin Xin's expression, Qin Qianfan felt a sense of disappointment, but he couldn't interfere in matters of the heart.

As she left, Shui Qingxi gave Qin Xin a special glare, her leisurely voice saying, "I will return to the Eastern Wilderness Academy as soon as possible."

After saying that, Shui Qingxi led Liu Lin and the others away.

Before leaving, Liu Lin came to Qin Xin's side, which made Qin Qianfan a little nervous, thinking that Liu Lin would attack Qin Xin.

"Don't be nervous. I just want to warn you that your status is worlds apart from my young lady's. Sometimes, don't try to be a toad trying to eat swan meat." Liu Lin left these words and turned to leave.

Qin Xin didn't take Liu Lin's words to heart and replied softly, "Toad? Who's the toad?"

Upon hearing Qin Xin's reply, Liu Lin paused for a moment. Shui Qingxi, who was walking ahead, seemed to have noticed something as well. She turned around and glared at Liu Lin, who snorted and then followed her away.

Xia Tong also left Tianyuan City with Shui Qingxi, seemingly wanting to visit the Prince of Zhennan.

After everyone left, the members of the Qin Clan Manor finally breathed a sigh of relief. The presence of the Zhennan Prefecture troops had made them feel suffocated.

Now that the Ironblood Mercenary Group issue has been resolved, the next step is to address the problems of some industries and markets in Tianyuan City.

To avoid attracting too much attention, the Qin Clan Manor has few members left after this incident. At Qin Xin's suggestion, the Qin Clan Manor only took over the largest market town in Tianyuan City, which was previously managed by the Iron Blood Mercenary Group. All the other markets were given to other small families to manage.

After settling his family affairs, Qin Xin headed alone toward the Martial Arts Hall.
