142: Killing the Qin family

The System prompted, Host consumed 12,500 Demonic Points! Current remaining Demonic Points: 7,495!

The System's mechanical voice echoed.

Lu Ze sat with his legs crossed, eyes closed, resting.

After a long while, people gradually began to awaken.

Fu Liang crawled up from the ground, shaking his head, feeling dizzy. As soon as he stood firm, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"Damn it, what happened?"

Fu Liang only remembered a powerful aura suddenly descending, and he immediately fainted. To possess such powerful Spiritual Pressure, the newcomer must have the strength of a Fourth-Rank Peak!

The Qin Family members nearby also woke up. Qin Wan had just sat up when she saw the headless corpse in front of her.

Even without a head, Qin Wan recognized it at a glance: this was Qin Xiong!

Not far ahead, Lu Ze was sitting on a bench, his legs crossed, eyes lowered, looking down at her.

Qin Wan's heart jolted. In Lu Ze's eyes, she saw killing intent!

The few Qin Family members also recognized Qin Xiong's corpse, and their faces instantly turned pale with shock.

One person immediately pounced on Qin Xiong's corpse, his eyes blazing with fury, "How did Brother Qin Xiong die?! Who killed Brother Qin Xiong?!"

Song Wushuang and the others also woke up, looking at the situation before them, all of them bewildered.

Fu Liang, however, his face darkened. He moved slightly, standing beside Lu Ze, his gaze deep as he looked at Qin Wan and the others.

He had already realized that Lu Ze must have killed Qin Xiong. As for why, Fu Liang roughly knew the reason in his heart.

This plan was agreed upon by several aristocratic families, and even Meng Yanxing was involved, which showed how important this corpse was.

It was not impossible for the Qin Family to make a move this time. After all, fortune favors the bold, and as the weakest of the four great aristocratic families, yet able to rise rapidly and surpass the others, the Qin Family had taken many such risks in the past!

Seeing Lu Ze sitting there so brazenly, the Qin Family members, though they hadn't guessed it was Lu Ze, couldn't help but feel some dissatisfaction.

The man who was pouncing on Qin Xiong angrily glared at Lu Ze, "Young Master Lu, someone from my Qin Family has died, and your indifference is perhaps a bit heartless, isn't it?"

Lu Ze chuckled softly, "Heartless? I was the one who killed him. Do I still need to pretend to be sorrowful?"

"What?!"

The Qin Family members were all stunned, then Spiritual Qi surged around them, and a murderous aura instantly erupted!

"Lu Ze, you dare to kill someone from my Qin Family? Do you really think my Qin Family has no one left?! Such arrogance deserves death!"

One person grasped a sword and rose, shrinking the ground to an inch. The blade of the long sword was instantly enveloped by countless Spiritual Qi, and the air itself was compressed by the blade!

That person was a Fourth-Rank Major Achievement cultivator. In an instant, he had already slashed before Lu Ze!

Lu Ze's body remained still, his eyes sweeping upwards.

"Buzz!"

Instantly, a powerful force that could pierce the brain suddenly erupted, sweeping across the entire scene!

The person charging with the sword instantly felt his brain seemed to explode. Immense pain enveloped him, and his hand could no longer hold the long sword.

With a clang, the long sword fell to the ground, and his charging figure also heavily crashed to the ground, clutching his head and screaming in pain, without any power to attack.

Everyone else in the field looked at Lu Ze with some awe.

The aura Lu Ze had just unleashed in an instant showed no restraint; he was clearly a Fourth-Rank Major Achievement!

In just a few days, Lu Ze had advanced another minor Realm!

Many people present were key cultivation targets of various aristocratic families in Xuanyuan City. Their talent, naturally, went without saying; from childhood, they had been praised for their exceptional talent.

But in front of Lu Ze, it was nothing!

To go from Third-Rank Peak to Fourth-Rank Major Achievement in one month—such a cultivation speed, looking across the entire Huaxia, would probably earn him the title of Prodigy!

The Qin Family member who was instantly suppressed was, apart from Qin Xiong, the strongest presence in the entire team, yet he was defeated by Lu Ze. At this moment, he knelt on the ground, clutching his head and screaming miserably.

The other Qin Family members no longer even had the thought of acting. With such a suppressive force, even if they made a move, they would only suffer the same fate.

Their gazes inevitably began to fall on Qin Wan, after all, she was the designated person in charge of the operation by the Family Head, and everything was to be arranged by her.

Following their gazes, Lu Ze also began to look at Qin Wan. He slowly stood up, walked in front of Qin Wan, then squatted down, staring intently at her, "You are the overall commander of your Qin Family's operation this time, aren't you?"

Such a strange sentence, in the ears of others, was somewhat inexplicable, but it made Qin Wan's pupils contract sharply!

Lu Ze had guessed correctly!

"What does your Qin Family want? Just this corpse, or do you have other intentions?"

Lu Ze stared intently into Qin Wan's eyes, enunciating each word, "Perhaps, you also want the jade token in my hand, or even some of my good fortune?"

Qin Wan's hanging heart completely died at this moment.

Lu Ze had guessed perfectly!

The main objective given by the Family Head this time was this corpse, but he also hinted to them that if they could find an opportunity, they must seize good fortune from Lu Ze's hands!

Especially that good fortune that would disappear!

But now, everything was exposed.

Qin Wan had been with Lu Ze for so long, and she understood his personality very well. This man would not show an ounce of mercy; those who should be killed would definitely be killed!

Qin Wan lowered her eyes, a bitter smile in her heart. Perhaps all the Qin Family members' lives would end here today.

"Yes, since Young Master Lu already knows, do as you see fit. I only hope that Young Master Lu, for the sake of the past acquaintance between us, will grant me a quick end!"

After speaking, Qin Wan closed her eyes, calmly awaiting death!

The faces of the other Qin Family members turned pale.

Qin Wan didn't even have a shred of thought of resisting, just waiting for death like this?!

If all the Qin Family members present united and attacked Lu Ze with all their might, perhaps there might be a tiny chance of victory?!

The few exchanged glances, instantly making up their minds.

At this moment, Lu Ze's attention was all on Qin Wan; it was the perfect opportunity!

Kill!

The four instantly burst out, reaching Lu Ze in a flash. The four deliberately adjusted their directions, surrounding Lu Ze, pouring all their strength into their weapons, leaving no retreat for themselves.

As long as one person succeeded in killing, they would have won!

Qin Wan also felt these several powerful forces suddenly descend and immediately opened her eyes, but the Qin Family members were already all closing in. It was too late for her to stop them!

"No!"

Amidst Qin Wan's cry of alarm, Lu Ze stood up, gripping the sword behind him.

"Zzzzt zzzzt zzzzt!"

Lightning suddenly erupted, instantly creating an area filled with lightning around him!

Even though the four Qin Family members were struck by bolts of lightning, they showed no sign of giving up, slashing down with all their might!

"Clang!"

Lu Ze's sword was unsheathed, and his figure suddenly moved violently!

"Pfft!"

With a raise of the hand and a drop of the sword, one person's head was instantly severed!
