56: Chapter 57 Family War

"Alchemist Chen, please calm your anger. We are doing this for Shen Yueyao's sake; after all, she is close to giving birth. Furthermore, the Su Family Cultivators have been searching for you constantly." Xue Wentian gave an awkward smile and hurriedly sipped his spiritual tea to cover his embarrassment.

"The Su Family still hasn't given up?" A trace of disdain appeared on Chen Fan's Face.

"It is said that their Clan Chief has already spread the word to secretly kill the Qin Family Alchemist. You must be careful."

As he spoke, Xue Wentian handed over an information Jade Slip.

After reading it, Chen Fan frowned slightly.

If this is the case, it seems the Family War between the Qin Family and the Su Family is not far off.

"You are pressuring me so intensely; which Medicinal Pill do you want me to refine this time?" Chen Fan asked, changing the subject.

"Naturally, it is the huntian pill, but the quantity this time is quite large. We hope Alchemist Chen can complete it as soon as possible."

When Xue Wentian stated the quantity and deadline for the refining, Chen Fan's head buzzed.

It was obvious that they were treating him entirely like a beast of burden.

However, he slowly suppressed the anger in his heart; after all, his woman and child were in their hands.

If he were to become a Foundation Establishment Cultivator in the future, he would not be so passive.

Thinking of this, he first noted down this debt.

"Fine, I will see you in two months."

Saying this, Chen Fan strode out of the Treasure Pavilion.

At this moment, Wang Qingya, who was hiding on the second floor, smiled faintly. In her view, manipulating the other party was easy.

...

"Husband, will the Qin Family take me in? I am slightly skilled in the art of spiritual planting." Liu Rushuang was somewhat uneasy.

"That is enough. Besides, I am a Guest Elder of the Qin Family; I have some Face."

"Mm, then I am relieved." Liu Rushuang smiled brightly.

The Qin Family flying boat was extremely fast, but when it reached halfway, its speed suddenly slowed down.

The originally noisy sounds on the flying boat quickly dissipated, and the sound of Magical Artifacts could be heard.

Chen Fan, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, slowly opened his eyes and saw a Su Family flying boat surrounding them.

"Qin Family Cultivators, listen up. We only want the Qin Family Alchemist. Hand over that person, and we can spare the rest of you."

The leader had the cultivation of the 12th Level of Qi Refining. He was burly, held a large saber, and had a fierce expression, with nearly ten Late-stage Qi Refining Cultivators behind him.

His gaze was fixed straight on Chen Fan, and a look of disdain appeared on his Face.

The Cultivators on the Qin Family flying boat had varying levels of cultivation, and the Captain of the Guards was only at Qi Refining Level 10. Seeing this situation, cold sweat streamed down his Face.

He showed a bitter expression and looked at Chen Fan with hesitation.

The other Qin Family Cultivators were the same, but none dared to speak, as they did not want to bear the reputation of being traitors to the Qin Family.

"Husband, this person is my enemy."

Wearing a veil, Liu Rushuang looked agitated. She recognized at a glance that the burly Cultivator before her had participated in the destruction of her sect back then.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, even if this person turned to ashes, I would still remember him." Liu Rushuang was extremely angry, her eyes almost spitting fire.

"Rest assured, Wife. Today, I will help you take revenge."

"Husband, we should withdraw as quickly as possible. It is not too late to take revenge in the future."

"All Qin Family Cultivators, listen to my order. This matter has nothing to do with you; you go first." Chen Fan stepped on his Flying Sword and slowly stepped out.

As soon as these words were spoken, the Qin Family Cultivators looked incredulous; they had not expected this Matrilocal son-in-law of the Qin Family to step forward.

"Deacon Chen, this is not good!" The Captain of the Guards looked ashamed.

"Take my wife and leave quickly. Hurry and inform the Grand Elder. I am an Alchemist; I am still useful to them, so I will not be in danger for the time being."

After hearing this, the Captain of the Guards nodded repeatedly and immediately urged the flying boat to leave.

Seeing this, Liu Rushuang had a worried expression.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect Alchemist Chen to have such backbone. However, the order I received is to kill you directly."

"Is that so?"

Chen Fan gave a cold smile and, without waiting for the other party to strike, directly unleashed a Spiritual Sense attack.

"Ah!"

The burly Cultivator was completely unprepared; his head ached as if it were splitting, and he did not understand what had happened.

At this moment, he heard the whistling sound of Flying Swords.

In the blink of an eye, six Flying Swords shuttled back and forth in the air, quickly forming an attacking sword formation.

"Go!"

With a low shout from Chen Fan, the most powerful Medium Grade Flying Sword slashed directly at the burly Cultivator.

After a "bang" sound, the protective shield on him shattered instantly.

Immediately following were the other five Flying Swords.

This scene left the other Su Family Cultivators dumbfounded.

"Brat, how dare you ambush me?"

The burly Cultivator only now reacted.

However, it was already too late.

Chen Fan very skillfully sacrificed the Flying Cloud Needle. The Flying Swords in front were just for show; the real trump card was using the flying needle to attack directly into the Sea of Consciousness.

"Ah!"

"Pfft!"

After a piercing pain in his head, the middle-aged burly Cultivator's expression instantly became dull, and the six Flying Swords entered his Physical Body in succession.

"Oh no, the Fifth Elder has fallen."

The other Su Family Cultivators turned pale, did not dare to continue fighting, and scattered to flee.

Chen Fan did not stop them, but instead smiled faintly.

He wished for the Family War to restart; only when both families' strength was further weakened would it be possible to break free from the Qin Family's shackles and establish a brand new Qi Refining Family.

He took the burly Cultivator's head into his storage bag, stepped on his Flying Sword, and headed towards the Qin Family's territory.

Hearing that Chen Fan was surrounded, Great Elder Qin Yuanshan was greatly alarmed and immediately summoned the Cultivators.

However, before the assembled Family Cultivators could set off, they saw the other party returning safe and sound.

"Good son-in-law, are you alright!"

In Great Elder Qin Yuanshan's eyes, an Alchemist was the foundation of the Family. If he were injured or crippled, it would be a huge loss to the Family.

"No harm done." Chen Fan smiled faintly and directly took out the burly Cultivator's head.

"This person was truly hateful, and I have already killed him."

"This is the Fourth Elder of the Su Family. Although he was at the 12th Level of Qi Refining, his aura was thick and his Cultivation Technique was unique; he should have been close to entering the Peak Qi Refining Stage. Just like that, he has fallen?"

Qin Feng, who was in charge of the guard team, looked incredulous but had to believe it.

Great Elder Qin Yuanshan was secretly shocked and frowned tightly, knowing the seriousness of the situation.

"What is your true cultivation now?"

"Grand Elder, I just entered the 12th Level of Qi Refining not long ago." Chen Fan no longer concealed it and released his thick Spiritual Pressure.

Great Elder Qin Yuanshan and Qin Feng were secretly shocked. Back then, they had practiced diligently and spent a full twenty years to attain such cultivation, yet this Matrilocal son-in-law had achieved it in less than four years of coming to the Qin Family.

This meant that the other party had the potential to break through to Foundation Establishment and advance to the Purple Mansion in his future Dao path.

"Good, very good."

Great Elder Qin Yuanshan let out a long sigh of relief and was very satisfied with the recruitment of the Matrilocal son-in-law back then.

Although most Matrilocal sons-in-law were very average, having just one Genius was enough.

Just as he was praising him, a Qin Family Cultivator came over in a hurry.

"Grand Elder, something has happened. The Su Family is acting suspiciously and has clashed with our Cultivators in the marketplace."

"What?"

Not long after, another Qin Family Cultivator came.

"Grand Elder, the Su Family has suddenly attacked our Qin Family mine. Many Family Cultivators have already fallen. The guarding Cultivators ask that you quickly send reinforcements."

A series of bad news followed one after another, catching the Grand Elder somewhat off guard.

"Hmph, it seems the Su Family has long planned this. Since that is the case, then let the war begin!"

Great Elder Qin Yuanshan's expression was grave, and his facial muscles twitched slightly. At the same time, the warning bell of the entire Qin Family rang loudly; the war was imminent.
