"You are dreaming!" Qin Xuewei said coldly.
Qin Hu chuckled and reached out to grab Qin Xuewei, "What I, Qin Hu, want, I have never failed to get. I advise you to cooperate obediently, otherwise, I can't guarantee I won't throw you into the river to feed the fish."
Qin Xuewei's eyes snapped shut, and she stopped resisting. She took a deep breath and said, "You dare not touch me. If you have the ability, kill me!"
Qin Hu's movements froze, and then he grinned sinisterly, "Heh, fine. Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish."
With that, he raised his fist and was about to strike.
Bang~
Just then, a terrifying force erupted, shaking the entire training ground as if it were an earthquake.
"What's going on?" Qin Xuewei's face turned extremely pale.
"Not good, we're under attack!"
"Run!"
Suddenly, the Qin Manor exploded into chaos.
Whoosh~
At the same time, a flying ship streaked across the sky. The cabin of the flying ship opened, and several streams of light shot out, landing in various directions of the Qin Manor.
"Who dares to trespass into the Qin Manor? Are you tired of living?" the Qin Manor guards shouted sternly.
Swish~ Swish~ Swish~ Swish...
The next moment, four men in black appeared before everyone, exuding a terrifying aura that made it difficult to breathe.
The man in black at the forefront was tall and slender, with a straight back. He stood there like a drawn sword, radiating a sharp edge.
"These people are actually experts at the Tongtian Realm!"
Sensing the four terrifying fluctuations, the people of the Qin Manor instantly changed color, their hearts sinking to the bottom.
They never expected that there were several Tongtian Realm experts hidden within the Qin Manor.
"Tongtian Realm!" Qin Yuanba and the Li couple were even more startled, their legs turning weak.
They were all cultivators at the ninth level of Body Tempering, and had not even reached the Gang Condensation Realm. How could they resist the attacks of several Tongtian Realm experts?
"Damn it!"
Panic flashed across Qin Yuanba's face, and he shouted, "Who are you people? If you want to harm anyone in the Qin family, you'll have to step over my corpse!"
"Presumptuous! What do you think you are, trying to stop us from carrying out orders?" A Tongtian Realm expert roared, his arm swinging, unleashing terrifying power towards Qin Yuanba.
"Father!"
Qin Xuewei's face changed slightly, and she rushed forward to block Qin Yuanba, raising her hands. A wisp of true essence transformed into a shield.
"Scram!"
The Tongtian Realm expert's eyes widened. He abruptly increased his power, fiercely impacting the shield, shattering it. Then, it landed on Qin Xuewei's shoulder, making her grunt, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.
"Miss." A group of maids cried out in alarm, wanting to rush to help Qin Xuewei, but they were slapped away by Qin Hu and fell to the ground.
Qin Xuewei shook her dazed head, struggled to stand up, and stared at the four Tongtian Realm experts opposite her, gritting her teeth. "Who exactly are you? Where has our Qin family offended you? Why are you invading without reason?"
The four Tongtian Realm experts exchanged glances, then all chuckled.
"Qin Xuewei, you don't need to pretend to be foolish. We are ordered to apprehend you and bring you back to the capital to receive a reward. Be sensible and surrender obediently."
A Tongtian Realm expert's gaze was chilling as he said indifferently, "I know your Qin family has someone named Qin Yu, but unfortunately, he is now a cripple and no threat. As for you, we have no interest in harming you."
Hearing this, Qin Xuewei's heart trembled, her face filled with surprise.
Qin Yu's matter was a secret of the Qin family. Logically, no one should know about it.
The high-ranking members of the Qin family seemed to have not leaked any information. These four Tongtian Realm experts were clearly not invited by the Qin family, but were targeting them intentionally.
"You are people from the Lingxiao Pavilion!"
Suddenly, a Tongtian Realm expert's pupils contracted. He scanned the guards, and when he saw Qin Lei lying unconscious on the stretcher, his face instantly showed a ferocious and cold killing intent, and he said in a low voice, "As expected, you are indeed colluding with the Lingxiao Pavilion!"
"Lingxiao Pavilion?" Qin Xuewei frowned, asking curiously, "What is this Lingxiao Pavilion?"
Upon hearing this, the four Tongtian Realm experts looked at Qin Xuewei with strange expressions, as if they had heard something incredibly funny.
Then, one of them snorted coldly, "The mere Qin family dares to oppose the Lingxiao Pavilion. It's utterly foolish! Today, we will, on behalf of the Qin family's high-ranking officials, eliminate this group of rebels and wash away the shame."
After speaking, the four Tongtian Realm experts released their auras, enveloping Qin Yuanba and Qin Xuewei.
"Father!" Qin Xuewei's face turned pale, her delicate body trembled, her eyes filled with grief.
Is the Qin family truly finished?
"Stop!" at this critical moment, an angry voice rang out from the entrance of the Qin Manor.
"Huh?" Qin Xuewei was stunned for a moment and looked towards the source of the sound. She saw Qin Yun entering the Qin Manor with two people, dressed in luxurious brocade robes, with an imposing demeanor.
"Eldest Young Master!"
Seeing Qin Yun arrive unexpectedly, Qin Xuewei was stunned, her beautiful eyes blinking.
Although Qin Yun was the eldest young master of the Qin Manor, he was much younger than her. Therefore, Qin Xuewei called him elder brother.
Qin Yuanba saw Qin Yun, and joy surged onto his aged face. He shouted, "Yun'er, you're finally back. My Qin family is in grave danger. Quickly lead the Qin family members to leave."
To be honest, he had anticipated this situation long ago, so he had arranged for Qin Yun to leave in advance.
Unfortunately, it was all too late.
"Second Uncle, do not panic. With me here, no one will dare to harm even half a strand of hair of the Qin family!" Qin Yun smiled faintly, stepped forward, and walked directly in front of Qin Xuewei, asking with concern, "Xuewei, how are you? Can you still hold on?"
Qin Xuewei forced a weak smile, "Elder brother, you don't need to worry. I'm fine."
"Good, that's good." Qin Yun breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the masked men in black, saying coldly, "I don't care who your master is. I'll give you three breaths of time to consider. Get lost immediately! Otherwise, don't blame me, Qin Yun, for turning ruthless!"
"Qin Yun?" The masked men in black were stunned, then they chuckled, "Qin Yun? That name sounds a bit familiar, but under these circumstances, do you still have the qualifications to negotiate terms with me?"
"If you are sensible, we might spare your lives," Qin Yuanba said urgently.
He had heard Qin Yun's words and felt a glimmer of hope, but then he thought that the Qin family simply could not afford to offend the Lingxiao Pavilion. This plea was purely a waste of time.
"You talk too much!" The Tongtian Realm expert's gaze turned cold. He flicked his finger, and a strand of true essence shot out, heading straight for Qin Yuanba's chest.
Puff!
The strand of true essence pierced Qin Yuanba's chest, passing straight through. Blood splattered out, staining the ground red.
Qin Yuanba's mouth gaped open, his eyes gradually became unfocused, and he finally lost all life.
"Father!"
"Uncle!"
Seeing this, Qin Xuewei, Qin Yurou, Qin Hu, and other Qin Manor guards were all stunned and couldn't help but cry.
"Bastards, you are courting death!" Qin Xuewei's face was extremely icy, her killing intent soaring.
Rumble!
In an instant, Qin Xuewei's aura surged, and her true essence boiled, not at all weaker than a Tongtian Realm expert.
"Hmm?"
Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Qin Xuewei, the four Tongtian Realm experts were all shocked.
"Peak Innate Realm? Her cultivation talent is quite good," a Tongtian Realm expert said sinisterly, then his eyes flickered with greed. "Since that's the case, it's just right to capture her and hand her over to the Lingxiao Pavilion for disposal."
"Are you sure you can do it?" Another person chuckled sarcastically. "Your father's left arm was severed, and you showed no reaction. What is the use of such a daughter remaining in this world?"
"Stop the nonsense and quickly finish them off, lest there be complications!"
The remaining two Tongtian Realm experts simultaneously activated their true essence, unleashed their attacks, and charged towards Qin Yuanba and the others together.
"Everyone, don't resist, follow me into the room to hide."
Seeing this, Qin Yuanba quickly pulled Qin Xuewei towards the inner hall, while saying to everyone, "Remember, try to hide well later, and don't come out."
The people of the Qin Manor were all severely injured. In this battle, the Qin family was doomed to lose!
"Did everyone hear that? Hide well later, and I'll go intercept them!" Qin Yuanba instructed a few sentences, then took Qin Xuewei into the inner hall, closed the heavy stone door, and sealed the entire courtyard.
Bang bang!
Bang! Bang!
