Chapter 1431: Chapter 1422 The Ruthlessness of the Qins
In a courtyard of the Qins.
The ancestors of the Zhengs, the Lius, and the Hus, died as their Divine Souls collapsed.
Qin Shuangshuang, who had been sent to the rooftop by Ye Chenfeng, had sparkling eyes filled with astonishnt; she hadn’t completely recovered from the shock yet! Everything happened too quickly, too suddenly. Just when she thought Ye Chenfeng would perish at the hands of the three families’ ancestors, a major reversal occurred. Ye Chenfeng took out all the people present from these three families in one go, causing Qin Shuangshuang’s mouth to slightly open.
The white and black Seas of Consciousness continued to cover the entire courtyard. Standing within these seas, Ye Chenfeng clearly felt that the Divine Sense of Zheng Haifu and the other ancestors, along with their Seas of Consciousness at their brows, were absorbed and devoured by the white and black Seas of Consciousness.
After absorbing and devouring the Divine Sense and Seas of Consciousness of Zheng Haifu and the others, the white and black Seas of Consciousness grew stronger, as Ye Chenfeng could feel the increasingly dense Divine Sense emanating from them.
With bloodshot eyes, as Ye Chenfeng pondered deeply, the blood-stained brows suddenly began to shine. In an instant, the white and black Seas of Consciousness that covered the courtyard surged back into Ye Chenfeng’s brow like a tidal wave, swiftly returning to Ye Chenfeng’s brow once more.
After the return of the two seas, the emptiness in Ye Chenfeng’s mind disappeared, and his old mories beca clear again; his bloodshot eyes also returned to their original state.
Ye Chenfeng twisted his neck; beyond the initial injuries, he felt no discomfort. He casually extracted the Black Xuan Sword lodged in the ground, returning the massive sword to his back, and thought to himself: “Old White, Old Black, what exactly is happening here?”
The White Shadow Person, Wu Fengxian, spoke with perplexity: “Strange, truly strange. Old Black and I were worried about how you’d handle these people. Even if you resolved it, how would you retrieve the two Seas of Consciousness into your brow again? Yet, those two Seas of Consciousness have voluntarily returned to your brow. Is there truly no discomfort in your body?”
Ye Chenfeng carefully sensed his body and the two seas at his brow. He felt no discomfort anywhere in his body, and the white and black Seas of Consciousness at his brow were calm; everything was as normal as can be.
“Old White, I’m really not feeling any discomfort,” Ye Chenfeng affird internally.
The Black Shadow Person, Jiang Yuntian, said, “Kid, there’s sothing odd here! Normally, with the Seas of Consciousness led out of the brow, your Divine Soul would collapse. But your Seas of Consciousness ford in reality without leaving any residual effects. It’s perplexing to us; keep monitoring your body in the anti and inform us imdiately if anything goes wrong.”
As Jiang Yuntian’s words fell, Qin Shuangshuang, still on the rooftop, finally spoke up, concerned, “Ye Chenfeng, are you alright?”
With her acupoints sealed, Qin Shuangshuang was defenseless. As she failed to keep her footing, she started plumting to the ground.
Interrupted, Ye Chenfeng saw Qin Shuangshuang rapidly descending. With a swift movent, he reached out just as she was about to hit the ground, securely catching her in his arms. Their bodies pressed closely together, and the scent of Qin Shuangshuang imdiately wafted into Ye Chenfeng’s nose.
Qin Shuangshuang could clearly feel Ye Chenfeng’s body heat, her cheeks flushed, and her heartbeat hastened suddenly. Her throat beca inexplicably dry, and she recalled her first kiss taken by Ye Chenfeng by chance in the Black Wind Mountains and the ti she fed him water mouth-to-mouth while he was unconscious.
As Qin Shuangshuang’s mind raced, Ye Chenfeng released her from his embrace and asked, “Are you okay?”
Feeling flustered, Qin Shuangshuang kept her head lowered and answered nervously, “I’m, I’m fine.”
Ye Chenfeng naturally noticed Qin Shuangshuang’s shyness. However, burdened with responsibilities, he wasn’t in the mood for romance. He glanced at the corpses of Zheng Haifu, Liu Anping, and Hu Yizhou nearby and asked, “Do you still wish to beco the Family Head of the Qins?”
Seeing that Ye Chenfeng had moved to serious matters, Qin Shuangshuang nodded and replied, “The Qins simply use won as tools. My mother and other won have no status in the family. If it were just alone, I would choose to leave. But I have to consider my mother and the others.”
Ye Chenfeng continued, “Who in your Qin family holds the highest power?”
Qin Shuangshuang answered, “It’s Qin Donghe in the late Divine Thought Realm Second Heavenly Layer; he is the only one in the Qins who has reached the Divine Thought Realm.”
After probing with his questions, Ye Chenfeng asserted, “Alright, today I’ll ensure you beco the Family Head of the Qins and will let the lives of the Qins rest in your hands.”
Though slightly hurt, Ye Chenfeng remained confident in confronting a late Divine Thought Realm Second Heavenly Layer expert. Those beneath Divine Thought Realm were simply not in his consideration.
Ye Chenfeng walked to the bodies of Zheng Haifu, Liu Anping, and Hu Yizhou, intrigued by Zheng Haifu’s Earth Grade Combat Skill, the Star Shifting thod. After searching Zheng Haifu thoroughly, he couldn’t find the secret manual for the Star Shifting thod, ultimately deciding to give up for now.
Bringing his right index and middle fingers together, the Frosty Sword Intent inside him surged, concentrating the Sword Intent to the joined fingers. Swiftly, his fingers slashed through the necks of Zheng Haifu, Liu Anping, and Hu Yizhou, severing their heads cleanly.
Expressionless, Ye Chenfeng spoke to Qin Shuangshuang, “Bring these old guys’ heads. I’ll go with you to et your Qin family.”
…
As Ye Chenfeng and Qin Shuangshuang left the courtyard together.
In the Qins’ hall.
Ancestor Qin Donghe sat in the main seat.
The Qin Family Head, Qin Shifang, his brother Qin Shinan, Qin Shinan’s son Qin Hua, and the Great Elder Qin Hai stood beside Qin Donghe. Their expressions varied.
After hesitating for a mont, Great Elder Qin Hai said, “Ancestor, you withdrew everyone from around the eastern courtyard, but just now there seed to be a huge commotion coming from there.”
The eastern courtyard Qin Hai referred to was where Ye Chenfeng and the others were.
Ancestor Qin Donghe tightened his grip slightly on the armrest, his eyes grim as he said, “It’s a ruse by those three old n, trying to lure over. They’ve pinned everything on Qin Shuangshuang. Sacrificing her would calm things down, so let’s let them stir the pot; won can never inherit the family anyway.”
Great Elder Qin Hai said respectfully, “Ancestor, your consideration is indeed perceptive! It’s an honor for Qin Shuangshuang to sacrifice herself for the Qin family.”
“Ancestor, let’s not bother with Qin Shuangshuang’s fate. Even if she lives, her body has been taken by Liu Jiang and Hu Feilong; she absolutely cannot return to the Qin family. Right now, we should carefully search her room to see if she’s left behind any Elixir Pills,” Qin Hua eagerly suggested.
“Exactly, it wouldn’t matter if Qin Shuangshuang died now or if I personally took action to send her off later. She surely loathes us. We mustn’t let soone who resents us continue to live.” Ancestor Qin Donghe said grimly.
As Qin Shuangshuang’s father, Qin Shifang remained silent, standing aside as if his daughter’s life or death ant nothing to him.
