Chapter 70: The Banquet Scene!

  Jade City tonight is exceptionally lively.

  The reason is simple: Qin Haizong, son of Qin Hongren from the Qin family, returned home to visit his relatives after graduating from Tian Sheng College.

  Tian Sheng College is a dominant existence on the mainland of Yu Feng.

  Even in the era of Da Wu, one has to rely on its breath.

  The students of Tiān Shèng College, even the lowest-ranking miscellaneous disciples and apprentice disciples, are envied by everyone when they return to their hometown. Now, let alone Qin Han Zong, who has reached the outer circle!

  Tonight at the Qin family, eight hundred tables were set up, with bright lights and a grand feast to welcome guests, all for the purpose of welcoming back Qin Han Zhong and showing off the family's prestige.

  In Jade City, anyone who received an invitation from the Qin family tonight felt proud of themselves, dressed up beautifully, brought thick gifts, and rushed to the Qin's house.

  From afternoon on, Qin's family entrance was crowded with people and vehicles coming and going without a break.

  The large courtyard of the Qin family covers hundreds of acres, so even if there are many guests, it will not be crowded. The entire courtyard is illuminated by thousands of giant candles as tall as adults, making the whole courtyard as bright as daylight.

  The atmosphere was extremely hot, and everyone was talking about the future of the Qin family, Qin Hongyi's mighty and majestic, Qin Hongren's teaching with great virtue, Qin Hanzong's unlimited potential, boasting and flattering, never-ending.

  Tonight, the rare treasures sent to the Qin family are enough to pile up a small mountain.

  At the front main table sat Qin Hongyi, Qin Hongren and Qin Hancong, with two other guests.

  These two guests, one of whom was about twenty years old, had long hair hanging down to his shoulders, and a refined and elegant appearance. He wore a white robe, on which an array pattern could be faintly seen - it turned out to be a treasure!

  This young master has skin as tender as white jade, and every move he makes exudes an air of nobility and evil. His eyes are like phoenix dan, and when he looks at others, his gaze seems to be able to pierce through people.

  He is the third son of the current leader of the Hesha Sect, a famous sect on the mainland of Yufeng that specializes in refining poisons and manufacturing hidden weapons - Wang Tianhang.

  Desecrate the gods, even dare to desecrate the spirits, arrogant and domineering to the extreme!

  The Desecration Sect is among the top second-rate sects on the mainland, although it can't compare to a giant like the Heavenly Sacred Institute, but it still has tens of millions of followers, possesses a certain amount of power, and its movements are extremely mysterious, generally very few people know about it.

  An old man sat beside Wang Tianhang.

  The old man was shrouded in a dark green long gown, which bulged out as if hiding something inside.

  His entire body was exposed, with only his head visible, his facial skin wrinkled, his complexion pale, and only a pair of eyes gleaming with a sinister aura that sent chills down one's spine.

  He is one of the eighteen elders of the Desecration Sect, the evil emperor elder, a strong man who has reached the sacrifice soul boundary, compared to Fang's family master Fang Ru Hai and Qin's family master Qin Hongyi, he is dozens of times stronger!

  There is still one empty seat at this table, which is reserved for Fang Ruohai.

  "This time, Young Master Wang is able to come and grant us an audience, it's truly an honor for our Qin family!" Qin Hongren said with a smile all over his face, flattering Wang Tianxing.

  The poison used to deal with Qin Yifu's father and son back then was all purchased by Fang's family from the Huishen Sect. This time, the Qin family bypassed Fang's family and directly invited Wang Tianhang, the meaning is already very clear.

  "Alright, alright. Young Master Qin is now an outer disciple of the Tian Sheng Academy and it won't be long before he's promoted to a low-ranking disciple, then a mid-ranking one. That day is just around the corner, and when that happens, I'll definitely prepare a generous gift to come congratulate him." Wang Tian Xing smiled back, his eyes glancing over at Qin Han Zhong.

  Standing in the midst of a crowd, Qin Han Zhong, who was originally the center of attention, did not have the joyful and lively demeanor that people had imagined. On the contrary, his face was slightly pale, and he always looked flustered and disheveled. If someone nearby spoke loudly, it would startle him, as if he was extremely afraid of something.

  Qin Han Zong was originally timid and shrinking, at this moment being swept by Wang Tian Xing's gaze as if it were a physical entity, his whole body's hair stood on end, he trembled once, almost jumping up from the chair to flee.

  Wang Tianxing's face changed in an instant.

  Turning one's face is faster than turning a page.

  "The young master returned home today, caught a bit of wind chill, and also made Wang Shao and Emperor Xie laugh." Qin Hongren secretly pulled at the hem of Qin Han's robe, pinning him firmly to his chair, while hastily explaining and smiling apologetically.

  Qin Hongren was actually extremely annoyed in his heart, secretly scolding himself for being an ungrateful son, losing his manners in front of so many guests.

  Qin Han Zong has been back for several days, but every day he locks himself in his room and refuses to see anyone. Tonight, under Qin Hong Ren's threat, he finally agreed to come out and meet guests. All day long, he muttered "killed someone, killed someone". When Qin Hong Ren asked him what was wrong, he didn't say anything, which made Qin Hong Ren, as a father, extremely anxious.

  Wang Tianxing is the son of the sect master of the Xie Shen Sect, and has a very high status in the sect. The Qin family is currently trying to get in touch with the Xie Shen Sect, but if they offend them because of Qin Han's attitude, then Qin Han will be the sinner of the Qin family!

  Qin Hongren secretly glanced at Qin Hongyi, seeing that the other party closed his eyes and couldn't see any joy or anger, so he quickly pinched his own son's thigh hard.

  Qin Han Zong took a deep breath, wincing in pain, his eyes welling up with tears. He bowed to Wang Tian Xing and stuttered: "Th-thank you... thank you, Young Master Wang's excessive praise."

  When he saw Qin Han Zhong return the gift, Wang Tian Xing's face finally eased up a bit.

  "Master Qin is a dragon and phoenix among men, and will surely rise to prominence in the future. I still need to rely on Master Qin's care and support." Wang Tianxing said calmly, turning his head to face Qin Hongren and asked: "Why didn't I see Second Young Master today?"

  The Second Master in Wang Tianhang's mouth was Qin Zhan.

  When Wang Tianhang mentioned Qin Zhuan, a thread of blood emerged in Qin Hongren's eyes, and his whole body exuded a thick murderous aura: "He is still recovering from his injuries, resting in bed, and cannot come to see Young Master Wang. Please don't mind, Young Master Wang."

  "Are you injured?" Wang Tianxing was somewhat surprised, "If I'm not mistaken, Second Young Master should be at the Muscle Refining Realm. The Muscle Refining Realm may not be extremely high-level, but in this Jade Flower City, it should also be considered mid-to-upper level. Who is so bold as to actually beat up Second Young Master?"

  Qin Hongren secretly glanced at Qin Hongyi again, and when he saw Qin Hongyi nod slightly, he gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "It's still that bastard Qin Yi! Letting Qin Zhan be bedridden for two months now, even if his body recovers, this lifetime may not be able to cultivate again, can only be a useless person."

  "What?" Wang Tianxing and Xie Huang Zhenren exchanged a glance, both seeing the look of astonishment flash in each other's eyes.

  They were shocked, not because Qin Zhan's cultivation was abolished, but because this injury was caused by Qin Yi.

  "If I'm not mistaken, the San Qi Fen Hai that was purchased from me three years ago was for Qin Yi to use, wasn't it?" The evil emperor's elder asked in a low, hissing tone, like a snake spitting out its tongue.

  "The effect of Róng Xuè Mián Gǔ Sǎn is to melt a person's muscles and bones, just like a spider preying on its prey. It doesn't eat the flesh, but instead injects venom into the body, slowly melting the blood and flesh, then sucking out the juices. Logically speaking, Qin Yi's strength should continuously decline within three years, and after five years, he will become an ordinary person. Afterwards, he will be plagued by all kinds of illnesses, and before long, his vital energy will be exhausted, leading to death, making it seem like a death from a severe illness."

  The evil emperor elder continued: "Such a useless person, how could he possibly injure Qin Zhuang?"

  "Xie Huang Zhen Lao is one of the eighteen elders of our Xie Shen Sect, with a poisonous cultivation technique that even my father deeply respects. It can be said that as long as Xie Huang Zhen Lao waves his hand, no one present today will survive, and if he wishes, tomorrow morning this Jade Flower City will become a city of death." Wang Tian Xing coldly said: "I don't know if Qin Gong is doubting the strength of our Xie Shen Sect?"

  When Wang Tianhang spoke, Qin Hongren's whole body was covered in cold sweat, and he hastily waved his hand: "Wang Shao, don't misunderstand. It was all that little beast Qin Yi who somehow got a strange encounter, greatly increased his cultivation, injured the family guards, and escaped. Hmm, but as for the dying person, it was just an autumn grasshopper, later taken away by Jiao Meng's old ancestor, and now is probably already dried up."

  "It's a coincidence after all." Wang Tianhang nodded, "This is possible. I just hope that this matter won't affect the reputation of our Xianzong Sect."

  The Qin family is now trying to curry favor with the Emperor, and Wang Tianxing is the most important key to this, so Qin Hongren dare not say a single word of dissent, repeatedly smiling and flattering, speaking all kinds of good words, shaking his head and wagging his tail, just like a dog trying to please its master.

  "It's a pity that Qin Yi was able to obtain a rare encounter and dissolve the toxicity of the Bone Dissolving Powder. Unfortunately, there's no way to capture him back for further research." The Evil Emperor elder shook his head, full of regret.

  No one noticed that when Qin Han Zong heard the crowd talking about Qin Yi, his whole body stiffened, every muscle tensed up tightly, cold sweat dripping down from his forehead, soaking through his clothes, making him look like he had just been pulled out of the water.

  "Qin Yi, Qin Yi... murdered someone... killed a person..." His upper and lower lips kept trembling, his body shaking more violently, suddenly, he was like a madman having an epileptic fit, convulsing wildly, kicking over the chair, jumping up, and shouting hysterically: "Murdered! Qin Yi murdered!"

  Everyone's attention was drawn over at once.

  "How dare you!" Qin Hongyi, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes, and his gaze flashed with a fierce glint as he shouted loudly.

  A burst of air waves, booming Qin Han Zong, sent him flying up entirely, and the shouting also stopped abruptly.

  Qin Han Zong fell heavily to the ground, his eyes rolled back, his whole body convulsed, and he continued to mutter to himself.

  "Take him back and don't let him out tonight." Qin Hongyi glanced at Qin Han Zong, instructing calmly.

  The people around him were suppressed by his aura, and for a moment they were silent as cicadas in winter, with no one daring to say another word.

  Just as the guards were about to lift Qin Han Zong up, a loud explosion suddenly burst through the air.

  Whoosh!

  A dark mass, like a shooting star, like thunder, turned around and arrived instantly. No one in the field could react in time.

  Boom!

  Qin Hongyi and others' main table was torn apart!

  A round thing rolled over and shattered on the round table, heavily smashing in front of Qin Hongyi, Wang Tianhang and others.

  A strong smell of blood fills everyone's nostrils.

  "A head!" Qin Hongren jumped in fright.

  When everyone in the scene saw the true face of this person's head, their hearts were all tied up.

  Shock and panic spread like an epidemic.

  "It's Fang Ru Hai!" Qin Hongyi's eyes sparkled as he suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the flying figure.

  The head of the first family in Jade City, the master of the Fang family, is now being thrown into the center of the Qin family's evening banquet!

  In Yuhua City, no one has such a big nerve.

  This is provocation! Also a death knell!

  "I'm back." A voice devoid of any emotion echoed into everyone's ears.

  Upon hearing the voice, Qin Han-zong struggled violently, broke free from the guards and yelled hysterically: "Qin Yi! It's Qin Yi! He's back! He's going to kill us!"
