C16 Anger

Qin Yuan slowly stopped cultivating. After an entire night of non-stop condensing and refining the True Divine Spirit Qi, his cultivation had become even more stable.

Although he did not sleep, Qin Yuan found that meditating cultivation was more effective in restoring his spirit than sleeping. He thought to himself that it was no wonder that so many martial artists were engrossed in cultivation.

"Hmm? I was just wondering why Xiao Cui seemed to be missing something, she didn't send us any food last night! It was already past the usual time for breakfast. Why was she still not here? Sick? " Qin Yuan's stomach growled a few times before he realized that Xiao Cui had not delivered any food.

Opening the door, Qin Yuan stretched his body and then called out as he walked: "Xiao Cui? Xiao Cui!

Arriving at the door to Xiao Cui's room, he saw that the door was closed and locked from the inside. Qin Yuan muttered, "This girl, she still hasn't woken up at such a late hour. It seems that she really is sick."

He lightly knocked on the door three times. No one replied.

"Xiao Cui, the sun is shining on your butt! Why aren't you getting up? Is he sick? "

Still no response.

Feeling that something was wrong, Qin Yuan knocked on the door again and said loudly, "I'm coming in!"

Taking a step back, Qin Yuan lifted his leg and kicked the door open.

As he walked into the room, Qin Yuan saw Xiao Cui lying on the floor without making a sound. There was also a piece of paper on the table, along with some food from the night before.

"Xiao Cui!"

Qin Yuan immediately ran over and helped Xiao Cui up from the ground. He probed for her breath, then grabbed her wrist and felt her pulse.

After gently putting down Xiao Cui, Qin Yuan picked up the slip of paper from the table.

"Young master, when you saw this letter, I think I was already dead. Qin Zhuo threatened my family and forced me to poison you. I'm just a powerless maid. I don't want to lose my family, and I don't want to hurt you, so I died. I hope that he won't make things difficult for my family again. Young Master, I really can't bear to part with you. In the future, please take care of yourself and be careful of Qin Zhuo. "I, Xiao Cui, offer it to you."

Qin Yuan's fists were clenched so tightly that the hand holding the paper constantly trembled.

After a long while, Qin Yuan released his fist, gritted his teeth and said with a trembling voice, "Why are you so stupid!"

Within a day, the news of the servant Xiao Cui's sudden death had spread throughout the Qin family.

After Qin Zhuo heard the news, he roughly guessed the reason. He immediately became restless and kept cursing non-stop, wishing he could revive and kill Xiao Cui again.

"Alright, since you don't care about your family, then don't blame me! I will torture them little by little until they die, and then you will be able to see your family and regret your actions in hell! "

The furious Qin Zhuo sneaked out of the Qin family during the night, and found the residence of Xiao Cui's family in the southwest district where the poor people were gathered.

Right now, the small, shabby room was brightly lit. Qin Zhuo reckoned that the people inside hadn't fallen asleep yet, but he couldn't hear anything.

In a fit of rage, Qin Zhuo jumped up onto the roof, opened the skylight, and jumped in. At the same time, his body was enveloped by astral energy, preparing to kill everyone in the room the moment he landed.

However, when Qin Zhuo landed on the ground, he waved his palm in an attempt to attack.

Qin Zhuo looked at him and was scared out of his wits. The person who had grabbed his right hand was none other than Qin Yuan.

"You, why are you here?"

"You came late, I have already ordered Xiao Cui's family to leave Chu Shi City. You forced Xiao Cui to death, are you still not satisfied!

After looking at the letter that Xiao Cui left behind, Qin Yuan knew that Qin Zhuo would not let Xiao Cui's family go. Thus, he secretly found his family and gave them enough time to leave Chu Shi City and waited here for Qin Zhuo to come knocking.

Qin Zhuo, who was exposed, remained stubborn: "That servant girl died of an illness all of a sudden, how can you blame it on me? I am only here to comfort her family on behalf of the Qin. "

Qin Yuan pushed Qin Zhuo away, took out the note Xiao Cui had left behind, and showed it to Qin Zhuo: "Open your eyes wide, and look at what this is!"

Seeing Xiao Cui's letter, Qin Zhuo started to panic, and said anxiously: "This, this … I have never done it, there must be someone trying to frame me! "

Putting away the slip of paper, Qin Yuan coldly said, "I also know that you won't admit it. This piece of paper is not enough evidence either."

Qin Zhuo had a bad feeling about this. Just as he thought of escaping, he realized that Qin Yuan's position was just right in front of him. No matter how he ran, he had to pass by Qin Yuan first.

Qin Zhuo had no choice but to circulate his astral energy and prepare to attack.

"She's just a lowly slave. Who the hell is she?" So be it! It's just a pity that I couldn't get rid of you! "

Qin Zhuo jumped up on the spot with a 'whoosh', causing the wooden chair beside him to sway violently. Qin Zhuo had completely abandoned his defense and attacked with all his strength.

Unfortunately, in Qin Yuan's eyes, his punches were full of flaws, and he was completely rigid in using his moves. With just a raise of a shield and an elbow strike, Qin Zhuo was beaten to the point of spitting out blood.

With a "pa" sound, the wooden chair fell to the ground.

"To you, Xiao Cui is just an insignificant servant. But for me, it's different. She's more like my family than your so-called brothers in the same race! "

As he spoke, Qin Yuan punched Qin Zhuo in the chest, knocking him to the ground.

After receiving Qin Yuan's punch, Qin Zhuo was almost out of breath. He clutched the spot where he had been hit and laid on the ground, his face flushed.

Ever since Qin Yuan was six years old, Xiao Cui, who was three years older than him, began to take care of his daily life.

Qin Yuan did not stop. Punch after punch landed on Qin Zhuo's body. He said coldly, "Blood debt, shall be paid with blood!"

Hearing Qin Yuan's words, Qin Zhuo's heart felt as if it had been struck by a hammer. Although his entire body was in pain, he still used all his strength to beg for mercy. For the sake of … for the sake of my kin, spare me! I can confess everything to my family, including my cousin. As long as you don't kill me. "

Qin Yuan stopped and his eyes were bloodshot. "Let you go? Do you think the clan will believe that Qin Jue is the mastermind after all if you speak empty words? "

Qin Zhuo was speechless.

From the start to the end, Qin Jue did not do it himself. He only ordered Qin Zhuo to make a move. In the end, Qin Zhuo was only one of his pawns. Once the matter was exposed, as long as he left the matter alone, he would be able to safely escape.

Only now did Qin Zhuo realize that he was being used. But unfortunately, he no longer had the chance to regret.

"Martial Seal Deprivation!"

Qin Yuan's palm struck Qin Zhuo's dantian and used the Reverse Heaven and Earth Art. The astral energy directly penetrated Qin Zhuo's body, forming a domineering spiralling force that separated Qin Zhuo's Martial Seal from his dantian.

Reversing the Heaven and Earth Art's usual method of absorbing other people's martial seals would only cause the victim to have recoverable injuries. However, Qin Yuan was now using an even more unreasonable method. He had forcefully taken away the martial seal and would never be able to recover.

"What did you do? Why did my Martial Seal disappear!? "

Qin Zhuo's face contorted in pain. He felt that the Martial Seal had disappeared and the astral energy was dissipating. To a martial practitioner, this was worse than death.

"Helpless? When Xiao Cui was forced to suicide by you, she was probably in the same mood! Qin Yuan had never been as furious as he was tonight as he said while gnashing his teeth.

"Qin Yuan, you are ruthless!"

"Ruthless? You and I were brothers from the same clan, and in the past you bullied me so that I couldn't practice martial arts, but now you want to poison me to death and force Xiao Cui to death, who is more ruthless? "

Qin Yuan took a deep breath, his tightly clenched fists trembling a little. The memories of when he had bickered with Xiao Cui flashed through his mind, as he raised his fist.

"If you see Xiao Cui, apologize to her!"

As the fist landed, blood splattered.

The Supreme Force washed away the blood on his fist and Qin Yuan threw a Burning Fire Stone at Qin Zhuo's corpse. In just a few breaths of time, there was only a trace of ashes left on the floor. The fire spread to the furniture and gradually burned the entire house.

This was Qin Yuan's first time killing someone.

His heart felt somewhat strange, but he quickly calmed down. Although Qin Zhuo had died, the real mastermind, Qin Jue, was still carefree and unrestrained. He still had the honor of being the 'number one in the Qin family's younger generation' to enjoy the admiration and love of his peers.

"Fire!"

Not long after, people nearby found the fire, beating the gongs and drums to call for help.

As for Qin Yuan, he had long since disappeared into the boundless night.
