40: Return, system tasks

Returning to the Ye Family.

The Fourth Ancestor and others were all there, but surprisingly, everyone's faces were somewhat pale.

"Uh..."

"What's wrong with all of you?"

Qin Jiang asked.

The Fourth Ancestor swallowed, saying with some disgust:

"It's all because we followed you and saw that Ye Xuan. Damn, it made me sick."

The other Supreme Experts also nodded, adding:

"Especially since we went in earlier than you."

"Hmm?"

A strange look appeared on Qin Jiang's face.

Earlier than I went in, that means they saw...

The Fourth Ancestor had a look of disgust. He wished he could dig out his eyes and wash them. To have seen such a disgusting scene! The world is really going downhill!

Everyone in the courtyard was somewhat listless.

If Ye Xuan knew that he had disgusted a Great Emperor and a group of Supreme Experts to such an extent, he would probably be proud.

...

To cleanse his eyes and wash away the filth in his heart, Qin Jiang found Ye Linger...

The next day.

Qin Jiang looked at the two women and said:

"I'm returning to the Qin Family. You two should come with me."

"You're going back already?"

Both women were startled.

Qin Jiang nodded. Actually, he wasn't in a hurry originally, but now that Ye Xuan was released, he felt it was better to leave sooner.

He didn't want to see Ye Xuan again.

However, sometimes, the more you don't want to see someone, the more they appear before you.

Just as Qin Jiang was preparing to leave, Ye Qingtian brought Ye Xuan and found Qin Jiang.

Ye Qingtian's face was grim:

"Qin Jiang, my..."

"What's going on with my son?"

When mentioning "son," his voice paused slightly. Now, Ye Xuan didn't seem like a son anymore.

"father, don't blame Young Master Qin. It was all my own choice~"

Ye Xuan pouted, hugged Ye Qingtian's arm, and swayed it like he was acting spoiled.

Ye Qingtian's face stiffened. Qin Jiang clearly saw goosebumps appear on the back of his hand, and his fists clenched tightly, as if restraining something.

Qin Jiang suppressed his nausea:

"Brother Ye, you really can't blame me for this matter. I didn't expect..."

"That's right, Young Master Qin is very good. I even want to repay Young Master Qin."

Qin Jiang: "..."

Ye Qingtian's face was stiff. He took a deep breath and looked at Qin Jiang:

"I heard you're leaving?"

Qin Jiang nodded.

Ye Qingtian's eyes flashed. He glanced at Ye Xuan and said:

"My son wants to repay Young Master Qin. How about..."

"You take my son with you?"

Qin Jiang: "???"

You're repaying kindness with enmity!

More importantly, a hint of expectation truly appeared in Ye Xuan's eyes.

Qin Jiang's heart turned cold:

"Little Xu, come out and take this young master home!!!"

Roar!!!

The void behemoth's head appeared before Qin Jiang. Without the slightest hesitation, he jumped straight onto it and entered the Chains of Command in a blink of an eye.

The next moment, he disappeared from the spot.

Ye Qingtian: "..."

Ye Xuan: "..."

...

Controlling the void behemoth, he found Ye Linger and the other women. After picking them up, Qin Jiang no longer lingered, constantly urging the void behemoth until they left the Ye Domain, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Qin Jiang, why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Ye Linger asked curiously.

Seeing Qin Jiang's appearance, it was as if there was some flood or beast in the Ye Family.

Qin Jiang wiped away a cold sweat. Thinking of Ye Xuan's appearance, he couldn't help but shiver:

"You'd better not know."

Seeing Qin Jiang like this, they became even more curious. It was the first time they had seen Qin Jiang so fearful. So, after continuous questioning.

Qin Jiang recounted Ye Xuan's matter.

Instantly, the faces of the women all turned slightly pale.

Qin Jiang looked at the women, and his mood became somewhat more pleasant. Beautiful things always make people happy.

"Alright, we've left the Ye Family. We won't see him again."

Qin Jiang smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.

...

Returning to the Qin Family wasn't urgent, so they traveled at a leisurely pace.

Just as they were passing through a small city, suddenly, the System's voice sounded.

[System Mission: Take Ye Linger to meet Xiao Fan (Note: Xiao Fan is in the city)]

Mission Reward: Xiao Fan's remaining Luck transferred to the Qin Family.]

"Xiao Fan..."

Qin Jiang's eyebrows raised. He looked at the small city below. Is Xiao Fan in the city?

He had originally wanted to take Ye Linger to see Xiao Fan. Now that the System had issued a mission, he naturally couldn't miss it.

"Ling'er, come down and walk around with me."

Qin Jiang lowered his head and looked at Ye Linger, who was resting in his arms.

At the same time, in the small city, a beggar, wrapped entirely in black cloth, was surrounded by many other beggars following him, subtly indicating that he was their leader.

This beggar had only recently arrived in the small city.

At first, he was bullied by other beggars, but gradually, many beggars discovered that this newcomer beggar had incredibly good Luck.

Every time, he could beg for a lot of money.

Furthermore, there was one time when they were scrambling for money, and this newcomer beggar actually erupted with immense power, shocking everyone.

From then on, this newcomer beggar became the King of Beggars.

Every day, he led a group of beggars to beg in the city, and he could even beg for quite a lot of things.

"Boss, where are we going today?"

"Hehe, it's comfortable following the boss. Not only do we not starve, but if we're lucky, we can even eat meat. The boss is truly the God of Beggars bestowed upon us by heaven."

"That's right, begging wasn't this easy before. The boss is amazing."

"Innate Beggar God Body!"

The group of beggars flattered him, seemingly unaware that the face beneath the black cloth had already become twisted.

God of Beggars?

Innate Beggar God Body?

Haha, he, Xiao Fan, has actually fallen to this state. How pathetic!

But now, his Fire God Body is almost completely crippled. The Meridians in his body have been burned into a mess, making it completely impossible to Cultivate.

Besides this, his entire body is covered in scars that cannot heal at all. He himself finds it terrifying to look at. If he showed his face, he would probably be treated as a monster.

Xiao Fan's heart was bitter.

If he weren't lucky enough, he would probably starve to death now. But he didn't know how long this Luck could last.

Vaguely, he could feel some ethereal things constantly peeling away from him. They were very important things, but he was helpless.

He walked aimlessly, his heart full of confusion. Suddenly...

He stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed tightly on the front. Two familiar figures made his body tremble uncontrollably.
