Feng Yunzi, who is courting death
Qin Yi's expression was calm as he said indifferently, "I don't think much of it. That area already belongs to my Qin Family; it's impossible to sell it to you."
Hearing this, a flash of ruthlessness crossed Feng Yunzi's eyes as he threatened, "Patriarch Qin, my father is a fourth-stage Martial God expert, a master ranked on the Heaven Ranking."
"I hope you consider it carefully, otherwise your Qin Family..."
The so-called Heaven Ranking was the list of Martial God experts within the Shenwu Empire, with only five hundred people on the list.
A cold smile curled at the corner of Qin Yi's mouth as he mocked, "Feng Yunzi, do you think you can destroy my Qin Family just by relying on your father?"
"Then you underestimate my Qin Family too much. As long as your father dares to come, I can destroy him with a flip of my hand."
Hearing Qin Yi's words,
Feng Yunzi was stunned for a moment, and his Face instantly became filled with incomparable rage.
"Qin Yi, a mere person from Qingzhou, you actually dare to insult my father! Just wait for the revenge of our Fengyun Society!"
The Gray-Clothed Middle-Aged Man standing behind Feng Yunzi had sharp killing intent flickering in his eyes as he glared fixedly at Qin Yi.
If this hadn't been the City Lord's Manor, the Gray-Clothed Middle-Aged Man would have definitely struck to kill Qin Yi, making him understand that the strong were not to be insulted.
A hint of surprise flashed in Han Xing's eyes as he advised, "Young Master Feng, Patriarch Qin, give me some Face and stop arguing."
"Since Patriarch Qin is unwilling to yield, there's no need for Young Master Feng to be so aggressive here."
By the time he finished speaking, Han Xing's tone had become a bit heavy.
As the lord of a city, Feng Yunzi still had to give Han Xing some Face.
Feng Yunzi's Face was gloomy as he said, "In that case, I shall take my leave."
Then, looking at Qin Yi, he said viciously, "Qin Yi, when you no longer have City Lord Han's protection, you will surely die."
After saying that, Feng Yunzi turned around and left with the Gray-Clothed Middle-Aged Man.
Hearing this, Qin Yi's eyes turned cold. If not for giving Face to Han Xing, he would have killed Feng Yunzi long ago.
By daring to threaten Qin Yi, Feng Yunzi had already found a path to his own death.
Han Xing smiled slightly and said, "Patriarch Qin, you offended Feng Yunzi today. With his narrow-minded personality, I'm afraid he will cause trouble for you."
"Feng Yunzi's father, Wind Cloud Without Trace, is ranked 392nd on the Heaven Ranking. Patriarch Qin, you should be a bit careful then."
Qin Yi nodded and cupped his fists, saying, "I know. Thank you for the reminder, City Lord Han."
Seeing that Qin Yi's expression remained unruffled, Han Xing couldn't help but wonder if Qin Yi had a way to contend with Wind Cloud Without Trace.
Han Xing smiled and said, "Patriarch Qin, I will take you to the former Liu Family Land."
Qin Yi responded, "Alright."
Immediately after, Qin Yi and Han Xing walked out of the room.
The Water Dragon Turtle and Qing'er in the courtyard quickly came to Qin Yi's side.
The Water Dragon Turtle asked, "Qin Yi, did you just offend another power?"
When Feng Yunzi came out, he was cursing and shouting, "Qin Yi, you just wait."
This led the Water Dragon Turtle to guess that Qin Yi had offended someone again.
Qin Yi nodded and said, "That's right. Because of the new family land, Feng Yunzi wanted me to yield it to him. Naturally, I wouldn't agree, so I offended him."
The Water Dragon Turtle sighed and said helplessly, "Well, Qin Yi, we've already offended two powers just after arriving in Central Province."
Qing'er, standing to the side, had a worried expression, though it was unclear what she was thinking.
Qin Yi shrugged helplessly and said, "Soldiers will be blocked by generals; we'll deal with whatever comes. For now, let's go see our new family land."
Then, a surge of Qin Yi's Spiritual Qi enveloped Qing'er's body, and the group flew toward the former Liu Family Land... Above the Liu Family Land, looking down at the vast territory it covered.
Qin Yi's Face lit up with joy as he secretly calculated that such a large area was enough to settle the entire Qin Family.
Han Xing smiled slightly and asked, "Patriarch Qin, the Liu Family Land is below. I wonder how you feel about it?"
Qin Yi said with satisfaction, "City Lord Han, I am very pleased with the Liu Family Land below. In a while, our Qin Family will relocate to Tianqi City."
Han Xing nodded and said in a heavy voice, "Patriarch Qin, I will announce the news of your Qin Family moving into Tianqi City so that other powers in the city will know."
"Furthermore, according to the regulations of the Shenwu Empire, all industries under any power must give one-tenth of their profits to the Empire."
Currently, the Qin Family's power was not enough to contend with the Shenwu Empire, so they could only comply with the rules for now.
Qin Yi said in a deep voice, "Rest assured, City Lord Han, our Qin Family will certainly abide by the regulations of the Shenwu Empire."
Han Xing smiled, cupped his fists, and said, "Patriarch Qin, the Liu Family Land now belongs to your Qin Family. I shall head back first."
Qin Yi cupped his fists and said, "City Lord Han, farewell!"
Han Xing nodded and turned into a streak of light, flying toward the City Lord's Manor.
Below, on the plaque above the Liu Family's main gate, the two large characters for 'Liu Family' were engraved.
With a casual wave of Qin Yi's hand, the plaque above was shattered, and a new one appeared, engraved with the characters for 'Qin Family'.
"From now on, this will be the Qin Family's new land. We'll rest for a night and return to Qingzhou tomorrow."
With a smile on his Face, Qin Yi said in a deep voice.
The Water Dragon Turtle was excited and said expectantly, "I really don't know to what extent the Qin Family will develop in Central Province."
Qin Yi didn't answer, thinking to himself that it was only a matter of time before the Qin Family dominated Central Province.
Just then, an angry voice filled with killing intent rang out.
"Your Qin Family won't have any chance to develop. I will kill all of you."
Feng Yunzi walked over with murderous intent in his eyes and rage on his Face, followed closely by the Gray-Clothed Middle-Aged Man.
Feng Yunzi hadn't left Tianqi City at all; instead, he had hidden nearby early on, waiting for Han Xing to leave before appearing to kill Qin Yi.
Qin Yi's eyes flickered with sharp killing intent as he snorted coldly, "Feng Yunzi, I didn't expect you to come here to seek death yourself."
"Do you think you can kill me just by relying on the Gray-Clothed Middle-Aged Man behind you? Then I can only say you are too foolish."
The Gray-Clothed Middle-Aged Man felt that Qin Yi was insulting him. A mere person from Qingzhou—he could crush him at will.
The Gray-Clothed Middle-Aged Man was furious, and his killing intent was released involuntarily. "Brat, you are too arrogant!"
Feng Yunzi said with full killing intent, "Left Protector, kill Qin Yi for me. Kill that turtle too; it'll make a fine turtle soup to nourish the body."
"As for this Green-robed Woman, spare her life."
Feng Yunzi looked at Qing'er, a flash of greed in his eyes.
Feng Yunzi's contemptuous tone made it seem as if killing Qin Yi was a trivial matter.
The third-stage Martial God aura from the Gray-Clothed Middle-Aged Man's body was fully released, and Spiritual Qi surged around him, turbulent and powerful.
"Understood, Young Lord."
The Water Dragon Turtle stretched its neck and cursed angrily, "You're the turtle! Your whole family are turtles! I am a Dragon Turtle!"
"Today, I'll kill this third-stage Martial God expert to show you the power of this Dragon Turtle."
With that, the Water Dragon Turtle prepared to enlarge its body to fight the gray-robed man.
The sounds of the struggle on Qin Yi's side attracted the attention of some Cultivators, who all gathered to watch the spectacle.
Suddenly, Qing'er's voice rang out, "Wait a moment."
