16: Chapter 16: Love Turns to Hate?

"You... all must die!!!"

As Qin Chuan's voice fell, the entire Martial Arts Exchange Conference was instantly filled with a bone-chilling killing intent.

It was too terrifying.

Every Martial Artist present felt fear, and one by one, they involuntarily retreated several steps. Up to this point, they still could not fathom exactly what Realm Qin Chuan was in, but they were certain that he was at least a Fifth Realm Great Grandmaster, or perhaps even at the Fifth Realm Peak.

The killing intent erupting at this moment was terrifyingly frightening.

Once the Soul Searching Technique ended, Qi Mingyu felt his blood and Qi depleted. His eyes grew filled with terror as he looked at Qin Chuan, especially when faced with the killing intent released by the other party, which made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. His voice trembled slightly: "You, you, you... you dare to kill me?"

"Qin Chuan, have you gone mad?" Song Yao had no idea what Qin Chuan had just done to Qi Mingyu. There was no such thing as a Soul Searching Technique on Earth, and she had never heard of it, so she assumed Qin Chuan was acting out of hatred born from love. "Mingyu is the young master of the Qi family. If you dare to touch him, the Qi family will never let you off easily, and there will be no place for you in Jinling."

"Furthermore, even if you truly killed Mingyu, it is impossible for me to be with you. There is absolutely no possibility between us!"

"I will settle things with you in a moment." Qin Chuan ignored Song Yao and stared coldly at Qi Mingyu. He did not intend to let Qi Mingyu die too simply; instead, he wanted to torture him to death.

"You..." Song Yao was furious. It was clearly hatred born from love; did he really think that by killing Qi Mingyu, I would take a liking to him?

Don't even think about it!

Although she did not know why Qin Chuan's strength had suddenly become so powerful, she believed it was absolutely impossible to reach this Realm in just over two years, so she formed a guess.

"Qin Chuan, I see that you must have used some kind of secret medicine to suddenly step into the Fifth Realm from an ordinary person, but this medicine will come at a huge cost to you. If you kneel and apologize to Mingyu, perhaps we can give you some resources." Song Yao resumed her high-and-mighty demeanor.

"That's right. As long as you kneel and beg me, I can give you some resources," Qi Mingyu said, gritting his teeth.

This was merely a stalling tactic; once it was over, he would definitely tear Qin Chuan into ten thousand pieces!

Bang!

But the next moment, Qin Chuan's palm had already landed on Qi Mingyu's forehead, and the guy was slammed directly onto the ground.

Blood flowed from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, but he was still alive.

Qin Chuan had held back with this strike; his goal was not to let Qi Mingyu die too quickly. Otherwise, given his strength, he could have easily killed him in the snap of a finger.

"Qin Chuan, how dare you?!" Song Yao's eyes widened in disbelief. Could it be that Qin Chuan really dared to touch Qi Mingyu?

"Why wouldn't I dare?" Qin Chuan sneered.

"This little friend, isn't it a bit too presumptuous to cause trouble at the Martial Arts Exchange Conference I am hosting?"

Just then, an aged voice rang out.

As the voice fell, several figures slowly walked down from the second floor; it was none other than Ye Nantian and the others.

"It's Elder Ye!"

"Elder Ye is here."

"And Venerable Zhang."

"Although this brat doesn't know if he used some secret medicine to boost his strength, now that Elder Ye and the others have appeared, this farce is about to end."

Everyone's expression brightened.

Clearly, in their eyes, Ye Nantian and the others could definitely suppress Qin Chuan with ease.

"Elder Ye!"

"Venerable Zhang!"

Song Yao hurriedly called for help: "This person is named Qin Chuan. He was previously engaged to my family, but it was later cancelled. Now, acting out of hatred born from love, he has run to the Martial Arts Exchange Conference to cause trouble."

"This little friend, to be able to enter this Realm at your age is truly remarkable, but that is not capital for you to cause trouble at the Martial Arts Exchange Conference." Although Ye Nantian's tone was calm and he did not appear angry, a faint Aura emanated from his body.

There was already an incredibly terrifying killing intent at the conference, and now with the addition of Ye Nantian's Aura, the Martial Artists with lower strength felt even more uncomfortable.

"Qin Chuan, release him quickly! This is Elder Ye!" Song Yao scolded.

Qi Mingyu, who had been slammed to the ground, had eyes spitting fire. He viciously said: "Qin Chuan, I have remembered you. I will definitely make you regret being born into this world!"

In his mind, he had already imagined hundreds of ways to torture Qin Chuan.

As the young master of the Qi family, when had he ever suffered such humiliation? Especially in front of so many people. At his level, what he cared about most was nothing but Face.

"I will repay this humiliation from today a hundredfold... Ah!"

He roared out almost entirely.

But just as he finished speaking, a scream erupted from his throat, as Qin Chuan stepped on his Face: "Noisy!"

"Ahhh..." Qi Mingyu began to scream in a breakdown.

Ye Nantian frowned; this young man actually dared to ignore him.

"Young man, let go of Mingyu, otherwise... die!"

Venerable Zhang had a good relationship with the Qi family, and he could be considered a senior to Qi Mingyu. As a senior, of course, he could not tolerate a Junior being trampled underfoot. He took a step forward, his hands behind his back, and the coercion emanating from his body was like Mount Tai pressing down, bearing down upon Qin Chuan.

The coercion of a Level 7 Martial Artist, while not enough to cause physical damage, was a sense of pressure that an ordinary Martial Artist could absolutely not withstand.

"Release him!" Venerable Zhang's voice also carried a force of suppression.

"Qin Chuan, I want you to regret this!" Qi Mingyu, who was being stepped on, saw that Venerable Zhang was about to make a move, and started making threats again. "You dare to compete with me for a woman? Do you even deserve to?"

"I don't mind telling you, it was I who killed your parents. What can you do to me?"

"Hahaha..."

He laughed wildly: "I remember you still have a younger sister, right? After today, I will take good care of your younger sister!"

Qin Chuan's expression turned cold. He lowered his head and glanced at Qi Mingyu. Did he think that he dared not touch him?

Although Qi Mingyu was destined not to survive today, these words were undoubtedly touching Qin Chuan's inverse scale.

Bang!

Crack!

"Ah..."

Just after Qi Mingyu finished threatening him, his arm was already snapped by Qin Chuan's stomp. The sound of breaking bones was extremely ear-piercing, but it was soon drowned out by his screams.

"Qin Chuan, you are courting death!" Song Yao roared.

Venerable Zhang felt that he was losing Face; he had stepped in, yet this young man still refused to release the person. He was completely disregarding him.

"Are you sure you won't release him?"

"If your parents were killed, do you think you would release him?" Qin Chuan asked in return.

Qi Mingyu's words just now were unscrupulous, and everyone present heard them clearly, but no one took them seriously, because in the eyes of Martial Artists, ordinary people were ultimately like ants.

Ye Nantian just frowned but said nothing. However, he did not approve of Qi Mingyu's actions, so he did not intervene further. Besides, even without his intervention, Venerable Zhang was there and could easily resolve it.

"Your parents were just ordinary people. They were killed, so be it. What, do you expect me to pity ants?"

Venerable Zhang said disdainfully: "He is the young master of the Qi family. His life is a hundred times more precious than your entire family."

"However... as long as you release him, I can compensate you and give you some cultivation resources. Do not mess around here anymore!"
