As the disciple thrusts his fist towards Qin, a palm moves towards his face. The moment before his fist could touch Qin, the palm slaps his face so hard that the saliva, blood, and teeth mixed together while coming out of his mouth. His body flies towards the wall and collides with it.
"What?"
The remaining disciples shouted in shock when they saw the strongest disciple getting slapped by someone with a boring expression on his face. Qin looked at Guan Xing and asked "They are the outer-disciples, right?"
Guan Xing nodded his head.
"We are also outer disciples," Qin answered as he walked towards them. Those disciples started trembling in fear. They tried to run away. At this moment, Guan Xing said "Don't do boring stuff. Just finish it!"
Hearing his words, Qin rolled his eyes. He knew what Guan Xing try to say. Asking them for their boss, the reason, and trying to teach them a lesson is too outdated and boring. Guan Xing wanted Qin to finish them in a second.
"Sword Cloak- Thousand Cuts!"
Qin suddenly takes a sword in his hand but he still keeps the sheath over his word. The sword energy coats his sword sheathe and the next moment, his body moves.
Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash!
As his body passed between them, his sword sheathed slashed their bodies, and the blood splattered on the ground. He could have used the sword rather than the sword with the sword sheath. But, he was afraid of a slight mistake killing them.
He can't control this strength to the level of using a sword with sword energy and just hurting them especially when they were so weak.
He puts back his sheath and walks towards the guard.
"What happened? Why were you guys getting beaten like that? And, why isn't the Tan family helping you?"
His words made the guards silent. They looked away and stayed silent.
"Uncle Wen, you should remember that night when I was twelve, right? There is no need to hide. And, you already know my relationship with the Tan family." When Qin mentioned that night, the middle-aged man whose face was covered with blood trembled.
"My----daughter... she was assaulted by the young master of Rising Sun Sect." The middle-aged man slowly bursts into tears and spokes. Other guards pressed his shoulder and tried to comfort him.
"What? Xin'er was r***?" Qin shouted in shock and rage. For a moment, both Guan Xing and Guo Min were frightened. For the first time, they have seen Qin in true rage. They couldn't help but wonder about the relationship between Qin and the girl.
In an instant, Qin turned around and walked towards the fifth stage disciple. At this moment, his killing intent was released wildly. It was getting so out of control that Guan Xing and Guo Min had to press their hands on his shoulders alongside releasing their spiritual pressure.
"Brother Qin, calm down! You are hurting people."
"Brother Qin, you remember the sword code, right?"
Guan Xing and Guo Min shouted at his ears and the killing intent slowly fades away. At this moment, not only guards and these disciples, even the people around the houses were suppressed by the killing intent.
At this moment, Guan Xing and Guo Min stared at Qin with confusion. They couldn't comprehend the level of attachment Qin had with Wen Xin.
During his life as a servant in Tan Family, he had encountered many tough situations but still managed to live out of them. But, there was one moment where he was on the verge of death. At that moment, he was poisoned.
It was Uncle Wen who paid for the detoxification pill and even so he wasn't healthy. For an entire week, his body temperature was above a hundred degrees (F). His body was aching to the extreme. More importantly, for an entire week, he couldn't move and needed constant water dressing.
At that time, the little girl Wen was only two years older than him. She took care of him for an entire week without even sleeping. Although she said it wasn't big of a deal for a cultivator like her, Qin still understands that's not the truth.
Because, even as a cultivator, you can't stay awake for a week especially when you are at the second stage of Qi Gathering Realm. He feels the same for Su Ling and Wen Xin. Except, he does have a little bit of hatred against her for being together with Jin Hao and slaughtering Qin's village.
As for Wen Xin, he doesn't have any hate. He is extremely grateful for them and that's why he doesn't mind being a hero for them. Qin walked in front of the disciple while controlling his killing intent and caught his collars.
"Where is your young master?" Qin's words were filled with cold killing intent but at this moment, they were directed at the disciple only.
"S…..se----t" Before he could complete the sentence, the disciple passed out but Qin already got the idea.
He throws the disciple to the ground and turns his head at Guan Xing and Guo Min. But, at this moment, Guan Xing had already thrown a black robe towards him. At this moment, Guan Xing and Guo Min were hiding their faces under the mask and had a black robe above them.
"Young Master wait! Family doesn't want to involve anyone….. You will be inflicted by this." Uncle Wen rushed towards Qin and held his hand while speaking. Although he was stopping Qin, the tears falling down his eyes had some other meaning.
Qin stared at Uncle Wen and sighed "Uncle Wen, a person can indeed forget the happiest moment of his life. But, a person will never forget the worst moment. And, the person who helps you get through that worst moment is no different than a god."
"Wen Xin is like my elder sister. There is no way I will let this slide." Qin spoke as he forcefully withdraw his arm from Uncle Wen's hand and walked away with Guan Xing and Guo Min.
As they reached a few hundred meters away, a voice rang on their heads.
"You know this is not going to be as you wish."
Qin and the other two turned their heads at the girl leaning on the wall of a house. This girl was none other than Tan Gengxin.
"So, Tan family is just going to let others be arrogant and do as they wish." Qin couldn't help but mock her with a disdainful tone.
Tan Gengxin raised her head and said "I know you are angry. And, you are also angry at Tan's family. But, you need to understand. There is one word that has always existed from the beginning to time."
"Ohh! And, what word is that?" Qin couldn't help but stare at her with a disdainful look. Guo Min couldn't help but feel a vast difference from Qin. At this moment, he noticed Qin was angry, to the point where he doesn't even care about anything.
He doesn't understand why though. Because he has always viewed Qin as someone who would never lose his mind over anger. After all, Qin was a true swordsman.
"Like father like son!" Xiao Lan couldn't help but sigh inside his head but Qin couldn't hear him.
"Helplessness!" Tan Gengxin narrowed her eyes as she felt a completely different Qin standing in front of her. But, she didn't think too much. She continued "You are not helpless but we are. The opponent is the person we can't afford to offend."
"And, not you, at least not now. Even if you go there, what could you possibly do? Especially with only three of you, can you change anything at all?"
"Amitabha! Young Miss, you are wrong. Young Master Qin is not alone at all." Suddenly, a voice rang in their ears. As they turned around and saw two people standing at the roof of the house.
"Humph! I am only here to test my strength." Chu Xieyi snorted at them and slightly leaned closer to Guo Yang, whispering "I am just kidding. I am here because you are here."
"Miss Chu, can you please stop bothering this poor monk? I am so poor that I can't even afford a house. Please leave me alone!" Guo Yang couldn't help but bow in front of Chu Xieyi but when he raised his head, he saw Chu Xieyi bowing in front of him.
"Hehe! We have completed the third part of our marriage. Now, only the first and second are left!" Chu Xieyi chuckled at him with a very low tone. In fact, the people below couldn't even hear her voice.
Guo Yang couldn't help but sigh at his fate. He slowly started understanding Chu Xieyi. Because of her special soul, she couldn't show her real personality. And, when she was in the most desperate situation of her life, her cold personality completely falls down, leaving only her real personality.
And, that was the moment when he saved her and made her fall in love. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have done whatever he did inside the secret mansion.
"Come on, Brother Qin! You were going for such a big battle, and you didn't even call me. If it wasn't for Luo Xue, we wouldn't even know anything about this." Another voice rang from the corner. And, this time, it was none other than Lan Ming.
Qin was quite confused since he didn't know how Luo Xue learned about all this. But at this moment, Yue Bin suddenly came out of the mysterious space alongside Liu Bing and made everything clear.
At this moment, Qin couldn't help but turn his head at Tan Gengxin and say: "So, do you still think the same, Gengxin?"
