As soon as Qin Xin stepped into Tianyuan City, he sensed that something was amiss.
Along the way, I heard many martial artists discussing the upheaval at the Qin Clan Manor.
For safety reasons, Qin Xin did not immediately return to the Qin Clan Manor, but instead inquired about the clan leader Qin Lin and others in the surrounding area.
As night fell, Qin Xin secretly slipped into the back mountain of the Qin Clan Manor. Having cultivated there for many years, he knew the terrain of the back mountain like the back of his hand. Although the guards had been strengthened, sneaking in quietly was still no problem.
"Qin Xin, have you thought about what you're going to do?"
Danqing's illusory figure floated out and slowly spoke.
Qin Xin surveyed the surroundings and learned that Qin Lin and his group were trapped in the Hunting Garden Secret Realm. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the entrance to the Hunting Garden Secret Realm was guarded by several powerful members of the clan, making it difficult to sneak in.
"I wonder how Third Grandfather is doing?" Qin Xin wondered with some worry.
"Don't worry, a Qi Sea Realm expert doesn't perish so easily," Danqing reassured her.
"Huh? Isn't that Yu Zi'ang?"
Qin Xin suddenly saw Yu Zi'ang, who was wearing a white academy robe and had a white jade flute hanging at his waist, and felt a little puzzled.
He subtly shifted his spiritual senses and overheard their conversation.
"First of all, congratulations to Clan Chief Qin. Now it's time for me to return to the Eastern Wilderness Academy. What about what you promised me?"
Yu Zi'ang spoke to Qin Maoyan, who was on the high platform of the martial arts arena.
“Naturally, Xu’er will give this young brother one hundred low-grade spirit stones.”
With a smile on his face, Qin Maoyan gave instructions to Qin Yangxu, who was dressed in fine clothes beside him. The father and son seemed to be immersed in the joy of seizing power in the clan.
Qin Yangxu took out a Qiankun bag and slowly walked towards Yu Ziang.
"Click!"
Before Yu Ziang could react, Qin Yangxu's hand suddenly changed, and a blood wolf appeared faintly behind him. The burst of blood-red true energy shot into Yu Ziang's head, and his brains splattered out.
"They deserved to die!"
Upon witnessing this scene, Qin Xin felt that Yu Zi'ang was truly an idiot; to negotiate with a tiger for its skin was simply courting death.
After Yu Ziang was killed, sounds came again from the high platform of the martial arts arena.
"Second Elder, Third Elder, proving your loyalty is simple: wait for the passage to open, and bring me Qin Lin's head."
Qin Maoyan glanced indifferently at the two elders beside him. He knew their character well; they could be easily won over with enough benefits. Moreover, they managed many of the clan's businesses, so it was better to keep them around to help him manage the clan than to kill them.
"We will obey the clan leader's orders." The second and third elders exchanged glances, as if they had made up their minds.
Upon hearing the way the two addressed him, Qin Maoyan's face lit up with joy, and he said, "If we're talking about who deserves the most credit, it has to be Elder Qin Hongbing. Without the pills he refined, it wouldn't have been so successful!"
"Haha, I'll need the clan leader's continued support in the future," Qin Hongbing flattered.
"Everyone, let's hurry up and break through these restrictions. I still need to take over that medium-sized market."
Ouyang Jie, standing to the side, looked at the group who were already preparing to celebrate their victory and said something.
"Of course, I must also thank Deputy Commander Ouyang for his help!" Qin Maoyan replied.
As soon as they finished speaking, true energy surged from their bodies, and phantoms formed from the true energy, such as giant pythons, centipedes, and spears, all rushed toward the passage to the hunting park's secret realm.
Although the restrictions set up by Hua Jin were powerful, they could not withstand the continuous attacks from everyone. At this moment, the energy of the restrictions had been depleted and showed signs of breaking.
"We can't wait any longer. Rather than sitting and waiting to die, we should fight our way out."
Inside the hunting park's secret realm, Qin Qianfan's face regained some color; the healing pills Hua Jin had given him were proving remarkably effective. However, the impending breach of the barrier at the passageway made his expression rather grim.
"Then let's have a fight!"
Qin Lin also forcibly suppressed the toxins in his body, slowly stood up, his gray robe fluttering under the fluctuations of his true energy.
"Miss Hua Jin, I'm entrusting these two girls to you. Qian Fan and I will pave the way for you!" Qin Lin said calmly.
"Grandpa, I won't leave!" Qin Xue said, her voice trembling with tears.
"Xue'er! Don't be willful! Only by living can you avenge us!" Qin Qianfan shouted angrily.
Seeing this scene of people going to their deaths, Hua Jin felt somewhat saddened.
"Uncle, don't worry, leave these two girls to me!" Hua Jin said firmly.
Then he glanced at Qin Qianfan, and the two smiled at each other.
"Thank you!" Qin Qianfan said softly.
Immediately, a giant tiger appeared behind him. The tiger's fur was dazzling white, and the black fur on its forehead bearing the character "王" (king) was very conspicuous, swaying in waves under the fluctuations of true energy.
"As the saying goes, a tiger father will not have a dog son. My son's five-star martial spirit has such a powerful aura, so I, as his father, naturally cannot fall behind!"
After Qin Lin finished speaking, as his gray robes fluttered, a purple tiger let out a series of low roars, its body crackling with electricity, and a faint aura of blood rising up!
Six-star Martial Spirit, Purple Lightning Tiger!
"Burn your life force! Uncle, you mustn't!" Hua Jin exclaimed upon seeing this.
"Hahaha, it's alright! Qianfan, let's have a good fight today!"
Qin Lin burst into laughter, and the moment the barrier at the entrance of the passage broke, he transformed into a bolt of purple lightning and rushed out, with the others following closely behind.
At this moment, in the training ground outside the hunting park's secret realm, Qin Maoyan, seeing Qin Lin rushing out with such momentum, hurriedly took a few steps back and cautiously watched the people who appeared at the entrance of the passage.
"I thought you guys would stay hidden in this secret realm forever," Qin Maoyan said with a squinty eye.
"Hmph! I never expected the person beside me to be such a venomous snake!" Qin Lin snorted, then shouted, "Today I will surely extract your snake gall!"
"Hehe, burning your blood and qi, looks like you're going to fight to the death. But how long can you last like this? Leave Qin Lin to me, the rest of you are."
Ouyang Jie took a step forward and said with a smile.
"Oh, Vice Commander Ouyang, the Iron Blood Mercenary Group has always been neutral. They've interfered in my affairs today, and we'll definitely have to settle accounts with them in the future!" Qin Lin looked at Ouyang Jie with a cold expression.
"This matter concerns me personally and does not represent the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group. Besides, you won't live past today," Ouyang Jie said calmly.
"Hmph! Then stop talking nonsense and fight if you want to!" Qin Lin snorted and immediately made his move. His aura as a fourth-level Qi Sea Realm cultivator instantly erupted, and some martial artists of lower realms around him instantly felt the pressure in the air.
Ouyang Jie was completely unafraid. He unleashed his full power as a third-level Qi Sea Realm cultivator. With a sudden surge of his true energy, a blood-red centipede rose up behind him. This centipede was about five feet long, with its thousand legs gleaming with a cold light, making it appear extremely sharp. Its eyes, the size of edamame beans, emitted a blue light, giving it a somewhat intimidating quality.
This centipede is none other than Ouyang Jie's five-star martial spirit, the Venomous Bloodthirsty Centipede.
Ouyang Jie had been on the defensive against Qin Lin's attacks. Qin Lin was now stronger than before, having burned his blood and qi. However, once Qin Lin's blood and qi were exhausted, he would be at his limit and completely at Ouyang Jie's mercy.
Hua Jin was currently engaged in battle with Qin Maoyan. Both of them were at the second level of the Qi Sea Realm, and they were locked in a stalemate. Moreover, Hua Jin also needed to spare some attention to protect the three girls.
Qin Qianfan stood with Qin Hongbing and the other two elders.
The training ground, cast in black gold, had long since vanished under the powerful bombardment of true energy, with rubble flying in all directions.
