Sour Pickled Peanuts

Chapter 173 The Toyotomi Clan, Annihilated!

Chen Wanshi was flanked by warriors of the Green Robe Guard.

At this moment, the shock within these men was even greater than Chen Wanshi's.

Although they were subordinates of Qin Hanchu, they only learned today that Qin Hanchu was a Grandmaster powerhouse!

Before they could digest this shocking news, Qin Hanchu dropped another more terrifying bombshell!

Their master was actually in the late stage of Grandmaster!

Was a late-stage Grandmaster in his twenties still human?

Which late-stage Grandmaster in the martial arts world today was not over a hundred years old?

Qin Hanchu, in his twenties, stood at the pinnacle of world martial arts.

How could they not be filled with excitement following such a master?

The swordsmen were also inspired, pursuing the warriors of the Toyotomi family with even greater vigor, and resolutely sending them on their way.

As for the warriors of the Toyotomi family, they were already scared out of their wits.

If their ancestor could not defeat Qin Hanchu, the Toyotomi family would be completely eradicated.

Even Toyotomi Hideyasu had lost the will to fight. He kept retreating, hoping to hold out until the Toyotomi ancestor killed Qin Hanchu.

However, he would not get that chance. A Grandmaster from the swordsmen had already set his sights on him and charged forward.

In front of a Grandmaster, Toyotomi Hideyasu, despite being at the peak of Grandmaster, could not escape death.

With the death of Toyotomi Hideyasu, the Toyotomi family was completely routed.

Many Grandmasters attempted to escape, but the Toyotomi family was now surrounded.

Outside the Toyotomi family, Qin Hanchu's men were on guard.

Anyone attempting to escape was stopped and killed.

Responsible for this were the Drunkard and the triplet brothers.

"Qin Hanchu, I'll fight you to the death!"

Seeing his clansmen being killed one by one, the Toyotomi ancestor went completely mad.

He no longer held back his strength, fighting back with all his might.

Seeing this, Qin Hanchu was not only not anxious, but he even smiled.

The Toyotomi ancestor was already at the end of his rope. His current madness was burning the last embers of his life.

"Fight!"

Qin Hanchu yearned for a full-strength battle. His aura grew even more formidable as he clashed with the Toyotomi ancestor time and time again.

Unknowingly, the battle had already lasted twenty minutes.

At this moment, the warriors of the Toyotomi family had all been killed.

Even Toyotomi Kanji was trapped and being besieged.

Under the combined efforts of the three Grandmasters of the Swordsmen organization, Toyotomi Kanji fought a desperate battle.

Boom!

At this moment, the Toyotomi ancestor was kicked flying by Qin Hanchu.

The Toyotomi ancestor's body slammed heavily against the wall. The concrete wall, under the terrifying force, was covered in spiderweb-like cracks.

Cough cough…

The Toyotomi ancestor fell to the ground, spitting blood repeatedly, and no longer had the strength to get up.

"I never expected… I never expected the Toyotomi family to be destroyed by my hands!" the Toyotomi ancestor roared unwillingly.

"Will you go on your own, or shall I send you on your way?" Qin Hanchu said coldly.

"The winner becomes king, the loser becomes a bandit. I die without regrets!" The Toyotomi ancestor forced himself to kneel, drew a short knife, and decisively plunged it into his heart.

A powerhouse in the late stage of Grandmaster died just like that!

"No!"

Pfft!

Seeing the Toyotomi ancestor take his own life, Toyotomi Kanji cried out in grief.

At that very moment, the Blood Saber of the Swordsmen ancestor sliced across his neck, sending him to join the Toyotomi ancestor.

"Have all witnesses been dealt with?" Qin Hanchu asked.

"Yes, all of them have been dealt with," the Swordsmen ancestor nodded.

"Let's go." With that, Qin Hanchu and the others left the Toyotomi family.

Ten minutes later, the beautiful woman who had accompanied Qin Hanchu to the Thousand Island Country crawled up from the ground.

Although she was covered in blood, she had no wounds.

She had known the situation was dire long ago, so she smeared herself with blood and lay on the ground, feigning death.

"Qin Hanchu, I will definitely avenge this and make you pay with the Toyotomi family!"

With that, the beautiful woman walked out of the Toyotomi family, filled with immense hatred.

However, as soon as she stepped out of the main gate of the Toyotomi family, a steel arrow pierced her heart.

The beautiful woman looked at the distant woods in horror, not expecting an ambush outside!

The archer was Renjie, one of the three brothers.

Qin Hanchu and the others had already left, only the Heavenly Dragon Three Brothers remained lurking nearby.

The trio's mission was to ensure that no witnesses survived.

The fact that Qin Hanchu was at the peak of Grandmaster could not be exposed.

With the fall of the beautiful woman, all witnesses had left this world.

The Toyotomi family had a very strict hierarchy; only those who reached the eighth rank were qualified to come here.

This place was far from the city center, and the surrounding mountains and forests were desolate.

Moreover, it was night, so the events at the Toyotomi family were not discovered until the next day.

Instantly, the martial arts world of the Thousand Island Country was deeply shaken.

Overnight, the Toyotomi family, one of the six great families of the Thousand Island Country, was annihilated.

Even the Toyotomi ancestor, at the peak of Grandmaster, was killed.

The Toyotomi ancestor was the tenth strongest on the Heavenly Ranking!

In the Thousand Island Country, only the imperial family possessed such strength.

But the imperial family had no reason to do this.

Even the imperial family of the Thousand Island Country was shocked. Who managed to wipe out the Toyotomi family without a trace?

As the imperial family investigated, they finally found some clues.

The Walton family of the Micronation.

"Patriarch, we just received news. The Toyotomi family of the Thousand Island Country has been annihilated, and the Toyotomi ancestor has been killed."

"What? How is this possible? The Toyotomi ancestor was a powerhouse in the late stage of Grandmaster, how could he be killed?" Upon hearing this news, the Walton Patriarch exclaimed in shock.

"It's absolutely true, they were wiped out last night."

The Walton Patriarch remained silent for a long time before suppressing his shock. "Which force did this? Did the six great families of the Thousand Island Country have an internal conflict?"

"It wasn't a force from the Thousand Island Country, it was an external force."

"According to the information, it should be related to Qin Hanchu."

"What? Related to Qin Hanchu? Why do you say that?" The Walton Patriarch was even more shocked. Qin Hanchu was only a Grandmaster, what could he do to annihilate the Toyotomi family?

Even the Toyotomi ancestor, in the late stage of Grandmaster, died as a result.

"According to the entry records of the Thousand Island Country, Qin Hanchu was captured by the Toyotomi family in the Thousand Island Country last night."

"After that, the Toyotomi family was annihilated, and Qin Hanchu disappeared."

"To snatch Qin Hanchu, they destroyed the Toyotomi family? Which external force possesses such terrifying strength?" The Walton Patriarch was utterly shocked.

Just then, his phone rang.

The clansman reporting the intelligence answered the call, then said in disbelief, "Scouts from the Great Yan Kingdom have sent back news that Qin Hanchu has returned to the Great Yan Kingdom."

"What? Returned?"

The Walton Patriarch had assumed that Qin Hanchu had been taken away by another force and interrogated for cultivation secrets.

But how did Qin Hanchu return to the Great Yan Kingdom?

"Could it be that the imperial family of the Great Yan Kingdom intervened to rescue him?"

The Walton Patriarch nodded in thought. "It's highly possible. Only a national imperial family would have such strength to annihilate a powerful force with a late-stage Grandmaster overnight."
