71: The original owner was killed by 10 simp girls 3

Ye Linger also stood up, a ruthless glint flashing in her eyes.

She was no pushover either.

"Qin Jiuge, you killed my lover! This hatred is irreconcilable!"

She formed hand seals; the cold poison in her body was actually a disguise.

Her true cultivation was surprisingly at the Tribulation Crossing Stage!

Moreover, the Cultivation Technique she practiced was extremely eerie, seemingly able to absorb others' emotions to strengthen herself.

The two joined forces, their Aura surging to the heavens.

The entire Qin Family ancestral land trembled.

The surviving members of the Qin Family were alarmed and rushed over one after another.

Seeing the corpses strewn across the ground and the crippled Young Misses, they all paled in horror.

"Family Head! What is going on?!"

Grand Elder Qin Yueshan exclaimed.

Qin Jiuge waved his hand, signaling everyone to step back.

"Defying the heavens?"

He laughed.

"This seat has defied more heavens than you have seen clouds."

He no longer hid.

The essence of the Devil King began to be released.

Boom—!!!

An indescribable, terrifying pressure enveloped the entire Qin Family ancestral land, and even the surrounding ten thousand miles!

The sky darkened instantly.

It wasn't dark clouds, but pure darkness.

Within the darkness, stars flickered in and out of existence, worlds were born and destroyed, and countless phantoms of devil gods knelt in worship.

Behind Qin Jiuge, a Devil King Dharma Idol taller than a mountain emerged.

That Dharma Idol had nine heads and eighteen arms, with each hand holding a devilish tool capable of destroying the world.

When its eyes opened, the sun and moon lost their luster.

With every breath, the Void Realm shattered.

"W-what is this?!"

Xiao Fan was scared to the point of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

In the Legacy of the Lingtian Immortal Venerable, such a terrifying existence had never been recorded!

Ye Linger went limp on the ground, unable to even stand.

It was an absolute crushing on the level of existence!

"Ancient Immortal Venerable?"

Qin Jiuge sneered.

"In front of this seat, do you even deserve to be called venerable?"

He raised his hand and pressed down with a palm.

Xiao Fan exerted all his strength, bringing out all his Magic Treasures and performing all his secret techniques.

But before that palm, it was like a mantis trying to stop a carriage.

All the Magic Treasures shattered.

All the secret techniques were broken.

Xiao Fan was pressed into the ground by the palm, eighty percent of the bones in his body broken, and blood stained the ground red.

Ye Linger wanted to run, but as soon as she turned around, she was bound by an invisible force, unable to move.

Qin Jiuge walked up to Xiao Fan and stepped on his face.

"You like having others gouge out their father's eyes to give to you?"

"You like having others extract their own Spiritual Roots to give to you?"

"You like having others betray their Family for you?"

With every question, he applied more pressure with his foot.

Xiao Fan's face was stepped on until it was deformed, and he couldn't even let out a scream.

"Today, this seat will let you experience what true despair is."

Qin Jiuge released his foot and picked up Xiao Fan like a dead dog.

Then, he looked at Ye Linger.

"You as well."

He took the two of them, stepped forward, and vanished from the spot... The first stop: the Ye Family.

Ye Linger came from a mid-tier cultivation Family; the strongest in the clan was her grandfather, who was at the Body Integration Stage.

When Qin Jiuge descended over the Ye Family, they were holding a banquet.

Ye Linger's parents, siblings, uncles, and aunts were gathered together, celebrating that Ye Linger had once again "harvested" the "devoted contributions" of several Young Masters from the Qin Family.

"That child Linger is truly capable,"

Father Ye laughed proudly.

"Those Young Masters of the Qin Family are all Prodigies, yet they are all utterly devoted to her."

"Indeed, I heard that Qin Poyue was even willing to ask for a dragon marrow golden elixir for her."

Mother Ye also had a proud look on her face.

"Once Linger completely controls the Qin Family's resources, our Ye Family can leap to become a top-tier noble Family!"

The Ye Family Elder stroked his beard and smiled.

Then, they saw Qin Jiuge descending from the sky.

As well as Ye Linger and Xiao Fan, who were being carried in his hands.

"Linger?!"

Father Ye exclaimed.

"Qin Jiuge! What have you done to my daughter?!"

Mother Ye screamed.

Qin Jiuge didn't say a word.

He raised his hand and pointed a finger.

The Ye Family's protective Formation shattered instantly.

He pointed again.

All the buildings of the Ye Family turned into fine powder.

"Today, this seat shall exterminate the entire Ye Family."

As the words fell, the Devil King Dharma Idol appeared.

The nine heads and eighteen arms moved in unison.

The three thousand seven hundred members of the Ye Family, regardless of age or strength, were crushed under the Devil King Dharma Idol; before they could even scream, they turned into a mist of blood.

Ye Linger's parents tried to flee but were crushed in mid-air by Qin Jiuge.

Her siblings tried to beg for mercy but were incinerated into ashes by a streak of devilish fire.

Her grandfather, that Body Integration Stage Old Ancestor, made a desperate strike but couldn't even touch the corner of Qin Jiuge's clothes before being corroded by Devilish Qi and turning into a withered skeleton.

It took no more than three breaths.

The Ye Family was destroyed.

"No—!!!"

Ye Linger struggled like she was going mad.

That was her home!

Her parents, her relatives, the place where she grew up!

Everything was gone!

"Qin Jiuge! You will die a horrible death! You will die a horrible death!"

She screamed hoarsely, blood-red tears flowing from her eyes.

Qin Jiuge looked at her indifferently.

"This is just the beginning."

The second stop: the Xiao Family.

Xiao Fan's background was slightly better than Ye Linger's; he was a branch of some Hidden Family.

But when Qin Jiuge descended, the outcome was the same.

Xiao Fan's father, mother, siblings, and Elders... one by one, they were crushed before his eyes.

Xiao Fan's younger sister, a little girl only twelve years old, cried out, "Brother, save me!"

Qin Jiuge crushed her bit by bit right in front of Xiao Fan.

"Sister—!!!"

Xiao Fan's eyes nearly split from rage.

The third stop: all the forces that had supported Xiao Fan and Ye Linger.

The Qingyun Sect, because the Sect Master's daughter liked Xiao Fan, had assisted many times.

Destroyed.

The Zixiao Pavilion, because the pavilion master valued Ye Linger's "potential," had gifted a large amount of resources.

Destroyed.

The Heavenly Sword Villa, whose villa master was Xiao Fan's sworn brother.

Destroyed.

Qin Jiuge slaughtered his way through.

Rivers of blood flowed.

Corpses piled up like mountains.

From their initial anger and cursing to their later collapse and pleading, and finally to numbness and dullness, Xiao Fan and Ye Linger watched.

They personally watched all their relatives, friends, and supporters die one by one before them.

That kind of pain was beyond words.

"Kill me... Qin Jiuge, I beg you, kill me..."

Ye Linger murmured; she had already collapsed.

Xiao Fan's eyes were also hollow, like a walking corpse.

But Qin Jiuge would not let them die.

At least, not now.

"Is this all it takes?"

He carried the two of them back to the Qin Family ancestral land... In front of the Qin Family Ancestral Hall, the corpses and maimed bodies of the ten children were laid out on the ground.

Qin Jiuge threw Xiao Fan and Ye Linger onto the ground.

The surviving Elders and clan members of the Qin Family all gathered here, looking at this tragic scene with complicated emotions.

Grand Elder Qin Yueshan stepped forward and said in a heavy voice:

"Family Head, these ten... although they got what they deserved, they are, after all, of the Qin Family Bloodline. Could we leave them whole corpses and bury them in the ancestral tomb?"

Qin Jiuge shot him a glance.

"Uncle Yueshan, do you know what the outcome of the Qin Family was in the original plot?"

Qin Yueshan was stunned:

"Original plot?"

Qin Jiuge didn't explain but instead waved his hand.

A screen of light emerged, projecting the original "plot."

How the ten sons and ten daughters of the Qin Family drained Qin Jiuge step by step.

How Qin Jiuge had his Immortal Source extracted, his Dao Foundation seized, and was refined into a Soul lamp.

How the Qin Family, under the rule of Xiao Fan and Ye Linger, became vassals and were eventually discarded at will, with the entire clan exterminated.

Scene after scene was crystal clear.

All the Qin Family members felt a chill throughout their bodies, their hair standing on end with fury.

"T-these beasts!"

Qin Yueshan trembled with rage.

"For the sake of outsiders, they actually wanted to drive the Family to its death!"

"They deserve it! Good riddance!"

The clan members who originally had some complaints about Qin Jiuge's ruthlessness all changed their attitudes at this moment.

These ungrateful wolves weren't worth pitying even in death!

Qin Jiuge looked at Xiao Fan and Ye Linger.

"Now, it's your turn."

He raised his hand and set up a special transportation Formation.

The other end of the Formation connected to the filthiest and darkest place in this world—the Goblin Lair.

Goblins, a type of low-level demonic creature, are filthy, ugly, and brutal, and they have a pathological craving for human flesh and Souls.

Humans thrown into a Goblin Lair would suffer eternal torment,

Their bodies would be gnawed upon and their Souls imprisoned, unable even to die.

"No... don't..."

Ye Linger retreated desperately.

Xiao Fan was also finally afraid.

He would rather die than be thrown into such a place!

"Qin Jiuge! Give me a quick death! I beg you, give me a quick death!"

Xiao Fan knelt and kowtowed.

"A quick death?"

Qin Jiuge laughed,

"When you were draining the Original Owner, did you ever give him a quick death?"

"When you watched the Original Owner's Divine Soul being burned day and night, did you ever have even a shred of pity?"

"Now you want a quick death? It's too late."

He picked them up, one in each hand, and threw them into the transportation Formation.

"No—!!!"

Amidst shrill screams, the two vanished into the Formation.

Qin Jiuge sealed the exit of the Formation and set a Restriction,

They would be trapped in the Goblin Lair forever, enduring endless torment, unable even to commit suicide.

Having done all this, he turned and looked at the Qin Family members.

"From today onward, this seat retakes control of the Qin Family."

"All traitors shall be executed without mercy."

"All loyalists shall be rewarded according to their merits."

His voice echoed throughout the entire Qin Family ancestral land.

"The Qin Family will never produce another simp."

"If there are any, this will be their end."

He pointed at the ten corpses on the ground.

All the Qin Family disciples felt a chill of awe.

From then on, not a single person in the Qin Family dared to be trapped by emotion or betray the Family.

Qin Jiuge spent another three months reorganizing the Family, purging the remnants, and restoring its prestige.

Using Devil King methods, he forcibly increased the cultivation of several loyal Elders and taught them some Cultivation Techniques.

The Qin Family's strength, instead of decreasing, actually rose.

As for the corpses of those ten children, Qin Jiuge eventually agreed to let them be buried, but they were not allowed into the ancestral tomb.

Instead, a separate plot of land was designated on the back mountain, where ten Wordless Tombstones were erected.

A line of words was carved in front of the tombstones:

"simps devour their kin, falling into eternal perdition; deep emotions do not last, and foolish love brings self-destruction."

...A hundred years later.

The Qin Family had become the number one power in this world.

Qin Jiuge's cultivation had long since returned to the Devil King realm, and even progressed further.

Even the Heavenly Dao of this world had to bow its head before him.

And the story of those ten children became a negative example in the Cultivation World,

Used by countless families to educate their descendants—do not be a simp, for simps die horrible deaths.

As for Xiao Fan and Ye Linger... deep within the Goblin Lair.

The two were surrounded by countless Goblins, enduring gnawing and humiliation day and night.

Their cultivation had long been crippled, and they couldn't even self-detonate.

They could only watch helplessly as their bodies were gnawed away bit by bit, only to slowly grow back due to the effect of the Restriction, and then be gnawed upon again.

Their Souls were also imprisoned, unable to escape.

"Kill me... I beg you, kill me..."

Ye Linger murmured to herself, her eyes having long since lost their luster.

Xiao Fan was also like a walking corpse, occasionally remembering those five women of the Qin Family and how well they had treated him.

Then, there was endless regret.

If only he hadn't provoked the Qin Family back then... If only he hadn't exploited those infatuated people... Unfortunately, there are no 'ifs'.

simps devour their kin, falling into eternal perdition.

Deep emotions do not last, and foolish love brings self-destruction.

These sixteen words became their eternal curse.

"Original Owner, I have avenged you."

"I have protected your Family."

"Rest in peace."

The silhouette of the Devil King stretched long under the setting sun.

Lonely, yet upright.

From then on, one more legend existed in this world:

Better to provoke the King of Hell than to provoke Qin Jiuge.

And even more so, do not be a simp.

Because that man specializes in killing simps.
