"Qin Yang..."
He chewed the name gently, as if trying to crush the two words between his teeth.
"Very good, very good."
"Dare to touch anyone from my Sun family, especially my Sun family's Great Sage Ancestor..."
"It seems that my Sun family has been dormant for too long, causing some ants to forget their awe and forget who truly calls the shots in this capital!"
An invisible yet suffocatingly terrifying pressure slowly spread out from Sun Neng's center.
The temperature in the entire main hall seemed to drop several degrees suddenly.
The flickering lights made the cold, cruel lines on his face even more distinct.
Do you think I would let him die so easily?
Sun Neng's voice carried an almost cruel indifference.
"No."
"That's too easy on him."
"I want him to live, to clearly feel what despair is."
"I want him to know that the consequences of offending the Sun family are ten thousand times more painful than going to the eighteenth level of hell!"
His fingers rose again, this time not tapping unconsciously, but pointing in a direction with a resolute air.
That's the direction of the Sun family's forbidden area.
“I will personally go and invite Ancestor Wujun to come out of seclusion.”
Sun Neng's voice, like a final judgment, carried an unquestionable determination and a chilling aura of killing intent.
"Ancestor Wujun?"
Upon hearing this name, Sun Yu's pupils constricted sharply. Then, a surge of joy and excitement instantly dispelled the lingering fear and unease in his heart!
Sun Wujun!
That was the only remaining ancestor of the Sun family!
He is of the same generation as Sun Wu Hui, but his strength has already surpassed Sun Wu Hui's!
Decades ago, Ancestor Sun Wujun had already reached the peak of the Great Saint Realm! He was only a hair's breadth away from that legendary supreme realm!
In recent years, Ancestor Wujun has been in seclusion deep within the family's forbidden area, detached from worldly affairs, striving to reach that ethereal higher level.
Unless the family suffers a devastating calamity, no one would dare to disturb them.
But now...
The fall of the venerable patriarch Wu Hui is a disgrace and a huge loss for the Sun family, shaking its very foundation!
It is only right that we ask Ancestor Wujun to come out of seclusion!
Sun Yu's heart pounded wildly with excitement.
Sun Wujun!
Peak of the Great Sage Realm!
What does that mean?
Looking at the entire Dragon Kingdom, and even the entire world, they are certainly at the very top of the pyramid!
With a flick of the wrist, one can create clouds; with a reverse, one can create rain!
In the blink of an eye, mountains and rivers can be shattered, and the world can change color!
Even if Qin Yang is incredibly talented, even if he used some means to kill Ancestor Wu Hui by sheer luck, could he really be a match for Ancestor Wu Jun, who is at the peak of the Great Saint Realm?
Absolutely impossible!
Before the absolute power of the peak of the Great Saint Realm, all schemes and tricks, all fortuitous encounters and methods, will be nothing but clay chickens and earthenware dogs, utterly vulnerable!
"That's wonderful, Father!"
Sun Yu's voice became excited again, this time filled with exhilaration and malicious pleasure.
"With Ancestor Wujun making a move, that Qin Yang... he's doomed!"
"No! It's worse than death! He'll definitely regret ever being born!"
He could almost see Qin Yang struggling and howling like a dead dog under the hands of the Wujun Ancestor, and finally being tortured to the point of being unrecognizable!
Thinking of this, Sun Yu felt his blood boiling. All the humiliation and frustration he had suffered before seemed to find an outlet at this moment!
He looked at Sun Neng, his eyes filled with anticipation and a bloodthirsty glint.
"Father is wise! Please ask Ancestor Wujun to take action; he will surely crush that little bastard into dust! Avenge Ancestor Wuhui! Uphold the divine might of our Sun family!"
Sun Neng glanced at him coldly and said nothing.
He slowly stood up.
The head of the Sun family was not particularly burly, but when he stood up, he gave people a feeling of being as majestic and dignified as a mountain.
An invisible storm is quietly brewing around him.
"Pass down the order."
Sun Neng's voice echoed in the empty main hall, carrying an unquestionable authority.
"Block all news about the fall of Ancestor Wu Hui. To the outside world, only announce that the Ancestor is in seclusion."
"In addition, keep a close eye on Qin Yang's every move in Haicheng, and don't alert him."
"When Ancestor Wujun emerges from seclusion, that will be the day his soul is scattered!"
Sun Neng spoke the last few words extremely slowly and coldly, each syllable seemingly filled with the most vicious ice in the world.
"Yes, Father!"
Sun Yu bowed and accepted the order, his voice trembling slightly with excitement, but his face showed an almost distorted excitement.
He knew that a thunderous storm targeting Qin Yang, from the Sun family's most elite forces, was about to begin silently!
Meanwhile, that oblivious Qin Yang was still in Haicheng, shopping with a woman.
Ah, enjoy your last good moments to the fullest!
Soon, you will know what true despair is!
Qin Yang, far away in Haicheng, was naturally unaware of the undercurrents swirling within the Sun family.
Of course, even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care too much.
For him, Sun Wu Hui's death was a clear bottom line drawn for the Sun family, and also an ultimatum.
If the Sun family were smart enough, they would know that there are some entities they cannot afford to offend.
If they obediently retreat to the capital and lick their wounds, perhaps this matter can end there.
But if they are ungrateful and blinded by hatred, and continue to send people to their deaths...
A barely perceptible glint of cold light occasionally flashed in Qin Yang's eyes.
So, he wouldn't mind making a trip to the capital himself, to the Sun family's ancestral home, and having a proper "reasoning" with them.
Some families, over time, easily forget the proper reverence for power.
He wouldn't mind helping them recall it.
However, he doesn't have time to think about the Sun family right now.
Having spent the day shopping with Shangguan Wan, enjoying the long-lost urban vibrancy and the gentle smile of the beautiful woman beside him, Qin Yang's mind was unusually relaxed.
The path of cultivation requires a balance of tension and relaxation; relentless asceticism is not always the best choice.
Time, like sand slipping through your fingers, quietly passes by.
Soon, night fell, like a giant black velvet blanket slowly covering the entire city of Haicheng.
Neon lights flash, traffic flows, the hustle and bustle of the day gradually subsides, replaced by the tranquility of the night and a different kind of vitality.
Midnight.
Inside the presidential suite of the luxury hotel, the lights had long been turned off, leaving only a few drops of moonlight seeping in from the window, casting hazy spots of light on the floor.
The room was quiet, with only the two people's steady, soft breathing mingling together, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere.
Qin Yang and Shangguan Wan slept in each other's arms, their breaths mingling.
The day's fatigue made Shangguan Wan sleep soundly, a faint smile of satisfaction even on her lips, as if she were having a beautiful dream.
Qin Yang had his eyes closed, his breathing long and deep, as if he had fallen into a deep state of cultivation or was asleep.
