866: Chapter 867 Qin Family, You'd better watch yourself!

As the Qin Family members saw Qin Yuechen's gaze land upon them, a strange hope suddenly rose in their hearts.

He had killed Consultant Qin Wuji and destroyed the Ascended Great Emperor, yet he had not touched anyone from the Qin Family.

As expected, he was ultimately a member of the Qin Family, and he still cherished their past ties after all.

Some young Disciples of the Qin Family quietly raised their heads, their eyes reigniting with light.

Several clan Elders exchanged glances, seeing the excitement in each other's eyes; Qin Yuechen had returned, and the Qin Family was saved.

With him holding down the fort, the Qin Family would not only be able to preserve its foundation but could even leap to become the most top-tier power in the Central Plains!

That was an existence that even the Heavenly Immortal Realm of the Jiang Family had to fear by three points!

Family Head Qin Yuan knelt on the ground, gazing at that figure in green robes, his face streaked with tears of old age, mixed with a trace of expectation.

Meanwhile, in the crowd, Qin Yuechuan kept his head lowered, his face turning alternating shades of green and white.

His feelings were far more complex than anyone else's; fear, jealousy, and resentment intertwined, almost making it hard for him to breathe.

He had returned.

That younger brother whom he had trampled underfoot, mocked, and regarded as trash, had returned.

And in such a manner, suppressing the entire scene.

Qin Yuechuan clenched his fists tightly, and deep within his heart, an emotion he refused to even admit to himself surged: venomous resentment.

"Why are you so strong?"

"Since you are so strong, why didn't you act sooner?"

"If you had acted sooner, how could Consultant Qin Wuji have been so arrogant?"

"And why would I have needed to grovel before that dead man?"

"Why would I have needed to abandon my father and betray my clan?"

"You could have clearly prevented all of this, yet you insisted on waiting until the Qin Family was on the verge of annihilation before appearing."

"You did it on purpose! You deliberately wanted to see me make a fool of myself, deliberately wanted to embarrass me!"

Qin Yuechuan gritted his teeth, a trace of sinister malice flashing in his eyes.

He even began to worry whether Qin Yuechen would stay.

If he stayed, with his current strength and reputation, would there even be a place for him as the head of the Qin Family?

Wouldn't he, the Young Lord, become a joke?

But he dared not show the slightest bit of this.

He could only keep his head down, feigning a look of fear and remorse, waiting for the verdict of fate.

In the distance, those Ascenders hiding in the Void Realm felt emotions even more complex than the Qin Family members at this moment.

Since the Xuanhuang World had ascended, they had arrived from the myriad worlds, and seeing that there were few high-level powerhouses here, they had assumed this was a fertile land where they could run wild as they pleased.

They plundered Secret Realms, challenged local Prodigies, carved out territories, and acted without restraint, not regarding the local powers of this newly born Immortal Realm in their eyes.

Yet today, they had witnessed with their own eyes the arrival of a Heavenly Immortal and the actions of a peerless Prodigy who suppressed the entire Xuanhuang World.

They saw with their own eyes the once arrogant Consultant Qin Wuji crushed to death like an ant.

Those Ascended Great Emperors felt a chill run down their backs at this moment.

So this world was not as simple as they had imagined.

It turned out that among those silent local powers, there existed beings capable of easily crushing them.

It was just that they had been lucky enough not to have kicked that iron plate yet.

Qin Yuechen paid no heed to the complex gazes behind him.

He turned around, faced Jiang Ruofeng, and bowed:

"Brother Jiang, the Qin Family raised an army to invade your borders, destroyed your ancestral land, and injured your clansmen; this crime must be punished."

"Since I have stepped forward, I will provide Brother Jiang with an explanation."

The moment his words fell, a vast Immortal might that swept across the heavens and suppressed the ages suddenly erupted from Qin Yuechen's body!

There was no violent slaughter, no earth-shattering roar, but an supreme, heavy aura that transcended the Heavenly Immortal, governed the myriad Dao, and suppressed the heavens suddenly spread out!

The entire heaven and earth of the Central Plains froze instantly; the winds and clouds stagnated, the laws of the Dao submitted, and the Void Realm solidified.

Every Cultivator on the battlefield, whether they were Disciples of the Jiang Family or the remnants of the Qin Family, whether they were Ascenders hiding in the dark or experts from the Holy Lands watching from afar, all felt an irresistible sense of oppression rushing towards them.

It was like ants facing a vast ocean, liable to be crushed at any moment.

And this pressure lasted for only a moment.

The next moment, the great power surging from Qin Yuechen's palm turned into a spring breeze, sweeping across the entire ancestral land of the Jiang Family.

The collapsed and broken divine mountains and Spiritual Veins slowly reconnected, reshaping the glorious scenery of ages past.

The shattered and collapsed palaces and pavilions shimmered with spiritual light, all fully restored to their original state.

Countless Jiang Family Disciples who were severely injured and on the verge of death on the battlefield had their wounds heal instantly; severed limbs regrew, blood and Qi became full, and their essence, energy, and spirit recovered to Perfection.

Several Great Emperor Elders of the Jiang Family whose dao foundation had been damaged and whose Origin had been broken felt the hidden injuries of many years within their bodies completely washed away, their loosened dao foundation stabilized and sublimated, and their cultivation level became even better than before!

In just a few breaths, the ancient ancestral land of the Jiang Family, which had just been devastated and littered with corpses, was renewed, filled with vast Spiritual Qi, and looked like an Immortal Realm.

Tens of thousands of Jiang Family Disciples stood stunned, and the three True Immortal ancestors looked at each other, their eyes filled only with extreme shock and awe.

Such means of creation had far exceeded their understanding.

Above the Immortal Path of the firmament, countless Prodigies who had once contended with Wang Xiaopang—Chu Daolin, Lei Dong, Qin Wuye, and others—trembled in silence, filled with awe.

Jiang Ruofeng's pupils constricted slightly; he was the closest, and his heart was stirred into a tempest.

He had ascended to the Heavenly Immortal Realm and stood at the peak of the Xuanhuang World, but at this moment, he clearly perceived that he and the youth before him were already as different as clouds and mud!

He felt as if he were a Mortal facing a supreme Great Emperor.

"Just what step has he reached?"

Qin Yuechen withdrew his hand and took out some Origin Immortal treasures obtained from the Immortal Realm, enough to make even Heavenly Immortals and Immortal Lords go crazy.

He also took out the True Immortal dao fruit of Consultant Qin Wuji and pushed it all towards Jiang Ruofeng: "These are considered an apology to Brother Jiang."

Jiang Ruofeng took the resources, felt the pure Immortal power contained within, and his expression moved slightly.

He was silent for a moment, accepted all the resources and the dao fruit, and bowed solemnly to Qin Yuechen:

"Brother Wang is righteous; I, Jiang, will remember this. This matter ends here."

Qin Yuechen nodded.

Having resolved the Karma of the Jiang Family, he finally turned around slowly, his gaze falling back onto the people of the Qin Family.

The entire scene held its breath instantly; all eyes were fixed, locked tightly onto that figure in green robes.

Family Head Qin Yuan held his breath, the expectation in his eyes reaching the extreme.

Qin Yuechen was silent for a moment, his gaze sweeping calmly over Family Head Qin Yuan's face, which was streaked with tears of old age.

Sweeping over the expectant faces of the Qin Family, his voice was very soft, yet it clearly entered the ears of everyone present.

"I protected the innocent members of the Qin Family out of consideration for our shared Bloodline."

He paused for a moment and continued:

"From now on, I have no further connection with the Qin Family."

"Qin Family—take care of yourselves."

These words were gentle yet resolute, cold yet heartless.

The grievances of his youth buried for many years, the obsession of drifting without roots, and the shackles of Bloodline entanglement were all severed and completely released at this moment.

At this moment, all the fantasies of the Qin Family members were completely crushed and vanished into nothingness as Wang Xiaopang's words fell.

The expectation on Family Head Qin Yuan's face froze instantly; all the strength in his body was drained away, and he collapsed to the ground, his aged body twitching slightly, his eyes filled with dead silence.
