Chapter 1279

(Unedited)

The Xin clan manor is located near the northern part of the old royal castle of the capital city. The estate is surrounded by two meters tall walls with several watchtowers were atop them stood some guards. It looks like a small fortress in the middle of the city.

The imposing Xin manor could make those people walking by it feel cold killing intent as they pass by the gates.

That is why… people would not usually walk through this area where the Xin Clan manor is located.

Xin Han was the first one to get off the carriage and then looks at the imposing gate of the clan with the words Xin Estate written at the top.

"Well, my dear nephew… what do you think?" Xin Han showed a proud expression on his face.

But behind that proud look, Xin Ja could feel that he is harboring a hint of disappointment and displeasure while looking at the estate.

As Xin Ja got off the carriage, he was a bit taken aback by the scene before him.

"The gate is quite imposing…" then his eyes darted to the guard towers.

"And… are those things really necessary?" he asked while pointing at the towers.

"Hahaha… Of course, they are there for the guards to better see any visitors or intruders…"

Xin Ja did not say anything and just stood to the side of Xin Han.

From the main gate of the estate, a middle-aged man along with a few men walked outside.

They showed smiling faces when they look at Xin Han but frowned when they saw Xin Ja standing beside him.

"Why did you bring him here, cousin?" asked the middle-aged man while showing a calm smile at Xin Han.

"Grandfather wanted to see Little Ja, so uncle should not meddle with this…" Xin Han coldly replied.

"Ah, why would I not? This father and son were exiled by the clan for a good reason. Both of them trash… and I heard his mother has also remarried…" the middle-aged man said nonstop while sneering at Xin Ja.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback upon hearing this. He has already expected that his mother might not be a good woman and has left him and his father for a reason. However, there is something wrong with that story.

Why would such a woman stay with a man who was considered trash and even marry him? She just left after he was born.

He knew that there is something wrong with the story he has gotten his hands on and no matter how much he investigated after all these years, he could not find a clue.

He had even seen that woman whom she should be calling… mother.

He could not deny that the two of them look alike. But he could not feel anything when looking at her from afar.

Now that they suddenly mentioned that woman, he feels a bit frustrated.

But he did not show it on his face. He just looks at the man before him calmly.

"What do you want uncle?!" Xin Han coldly asked this time his aura is now coming out of his body.

Feeling the strong aura of Xin Han, the middle-aged man squinted.

He did not fear his cousin because he knew that Xin Han would not hurt him. But from the way Xin Han protected the young man, he could tell that he would need to make a move and erase that young man, or else he and his son faces more trouble in the future.

"Xin Han… you might be favored by the old patriarch, but that does not mean you can throw your weight in front of us… The Xin clan is not ruled by you…" someone from behind suddenly scolded.

"That is right, you might have given some prestige in the clan, but that does not mean the clan would bow to you…"

"Yeah, the clan helped you grow… you cannot oppress us just like we are nothing!"

The people behind the father of Xin Bin suddenly began protesting. Xin Bin's father is Xin Julong, and he is the elder cousin of Xin Jong and Xin Han.

They are all the sons of the late brothers of the current old patriarch of the Xin clan.

The current patriarch of the clan is the direct descendant of the old patriarch, but he is not someone who would actively fight for the prestige of the clan.

That is why Xin Han has looked at highly by the old patriarch because of his contribution to the clan and their prestige.

But who would have known that these people would question that in front of his face?

Xin Han sneered at them and then waves his hand.

Several soldiers began to walk and then push the crowd of middle-aged men to the side.

"Let's go meet your grandfather…"

The two then walk through the Xin Clan manor.

Xin Julong did not react as he has already gotten his goal of coming to this place. All he wanted to know is the attitude of Xin Han toward that young trashy nephew of his.

After he could tell that Xin Han values Xin Ja, a sinister smile appears on Xin Julong's face.

"I can use that trashy guy to control Xin Han… If he truly values the trash, then I can use that trash to threaten him and Xin Jong… Without those two, my chances to sit on the patriarch seat would be high after I get rid of that weak bastard…" Xin Julong thought.

The large hall has a rustic feeling in it as Xin Ja walked inside. Then his eyes landed on the old man sitting at the head while showing a smile on his wizened face.

"The junior greets the patriarch!" Xin Han bowed.

Xin Ja did not say anything and just lowered his head.

"Haha… I've been waiting for a while now. It is nice to see that you've grown into a fine young man…" the old man said.

Xin Ja did not know if the old man is talking to his uncle or to him.

"Patriarch, this is Xin Ja, the son of your nephew, Xin Jong…" Xin Han introduces.

The old man looks at Xin Ja and nodded his head. There is a hint of disappointment in the old man's eyes when he looks at Xin Ja.

"No matter what your attainment outside the clan is… In the Xin clan, we value strength more than anything else… Though your uncle looks highly of you… and yet all I see is a 1st-level Ki fighter. For me, you're still lacking… by a lot…" the old man said with a hint of mockery in his tone.

"This…"

Before Xin Han could say anything, the old man lifted his hand to stop him.

"Now that I have seen you… you may leave." The old man said then shifted his gaze at Xin Han.

"Patriarch… you…"

Then the eyes of Xin Han noticed a figure hiding at the side and immediately knew that is happening. His anger is about to erupt.

"Uncle… I will now leave…" Xin Ja said with a smile.

"I just plan to visit this place at least once… I did not want to get any recognition from anyone but my father…" Xin Ja said after seeing the expression on his uncle's face.

"At least you know of my strength… that is already enough for me…"

Xin Han helplessly looks at the old man and then shook his head.

Before Xin Han could say anything the old man showed a crafty smile and then said.

"I heard that you taught a lesson to one of your cousins… I hope that you can recognize trash from the really useful ones… Do not be led astray…"

Hearing the old man's voice, Xin Han showed anger on his face. He was about to say something when suddenly, he heard a loud explosion reverberating through the hall.

Bang!!!

The old man froze on the spot, and his eyes are wide in disbelief.

Not too far in the hall is the figure of Xin Ja standing sideways while a smoking handgun is held in his hand.

"I never want to threaten anyone, especially my elders… but if the patriarch could not control his mouth… Maybe there would need to be a new patriarch in the Xin clan…" Xin Ja said with an imposing tone.

No killing intent no warning. The patriarch has high cultivation that is nearing the Ki Master level, but he did not detect that attack.

Large beads of sweat immediately form on his forehead as he knew that if that young man wanted his life he could have taken it already without him knowing.

Now he knew why his nephew Xin Han values the young man greatly. In the military, such an asset is useful in taking out their enemies.

He could not help but swallow his saliva as he looks at the retreating figure of the young man.

Although he feel afraid and did not do anything, the old man still shook his head as he could not lower his standard and appreciate a mere 1st-level Ki fighter.

Although he showed great prospects, without real strength… he would still be trash.
