475 Gloom
When Qin Xi heard that there was a secret base, her eyes narrowed and the corners of her mouth curled up into an extremely devilish smile.
“Oh, since it belongs to the Shi family, what right do you have to give it out as pensation? Or do you want to see me and the Shi family stand on opposite sides and fight to death.”
Seeing that Jun Yaohui’s face was slightly stiff, as if he had been seen through, he couldn’t help but tremble. Qin Xi continued lazily, “Do you think I’m afraid of the Shi family? Since I can e to your house without anyone knowing, I can do it anywhere. I just need to sneak into the house of the Shi family and threaten them using the same method. There’s nothing in this world that I can’t get my hands on.”
Hearing her arrogant words, Jun Yaohui felt a chill run down his spine. Just as she said, with her ability, there was nothing she couldn’t get.
He was in a state of despair and pletely gave up resisting. “Whatever you want, as long as I have it, I’ll give it to you.”
To be honest, Qin Xi really did not want that much. She was not a bandit. She took what she needed and was not interested in what she didn’t need.
“Tell me about the Shi family! Who was the person you called just now?”
Qin Xi asked again. Since Stone was fine, she had to solve this problem from the root.
She did not want to encounter such a thing again.
“I don’t know much about the Shi family in the capital. I only know that they’re a second-rate family clan. It’s said that the Shi family has a huge powerful family clan backing them. The person who contacted me just now was the master of a branch of the Shi family, and I’m just a pawn for them. I don’t know the details, but I’m sure that the Shi family is also a puppet.”
He was not exaggerating. Back then, he had worked hard to get the information out of a junior of the Shi family. At that time, he was extremely shocked.
“A hidden family clan?”
Qin Xi narrowed her eyes. For some reason, she immediately thought of the Su family that her grandfather mentioned. It was an ancient martial family clan.
She knew that she wouldn’t be able to get anything out of him. Since it was a hidden family clan, how could they let outsiders know? It seemed like she had to contact her grandfather, who was far away in the capital.
At the thought of this, she opened the door and walked out. She said calmly, “Let’s go!”
Jun Yaohui gritted his teeth and followed her unsteadily. He said nervously, “Great Immortal, can you let me say goodbye to my wife first?”
Thinking that she was asking him to turn himself in, his heart sank. He looked like he was about to cry.
“Go and release my husband first before signing the transfer contract. I’ll go to the herbal field you mentioned. I have to check it first and see if it’s worth it.”
Since they dared to cause trouble for Han Shi while she was not around, they had to be prepared to be wiped out.
Not to mention the Shi family, even the hidden family clan behind the Shi family would not escape unscathed.

In a special department’s confinement room.
Jiu Yuan brought the talisman paper and the pill Qin Xi gave him and rushed through the wall. The originally dark confinement room suddenly lit up.
“Hey, don’t say I didn’t tell you. Your wife is back. When she heard that you were bullied, she was furious. She’ll probably be here soon.”
Han Shi opened his eyes faintly and stopped cultivating. A trace of sadness flashed across his eyes.
After this crisis, he suddenly realized how dependent he was on Qin Xi. Without Qin Xi, he might really be locked up here to die.
Even if he managed to escape, his reputation would be ruined. Thinking back to the past, he realized that everything was actually given to him by Xi. How could he fulfill the three-year promise he made with Qi Xiong if this continued?
