You Can't Be Angry, Can You?

Southern outskirts, Liu Family!

Though midnight was approaching, furious roars still rang out without end.

"Damn it... damn it... Qin Jishi... our Liu Family will never let you off."

Today, the Liu Family had utterly disgraced themselves. They would likely become the laughingstock of all Soaring Dragon City from now on.

Of course, that was not the only reason for Liu Qiang's fury. More importantly, with the Zhang Family gaining momentum this time, the major forces of Soaring Dragon City would certainly flock to them. That posed an enormous threat to the Liu Family.

If the Liu Family made no move, they would certainly be squeezed out of the ranks of the three great powers in the future.

Whenever he thought of this, Liu Qiang could not suppress the rage in his heart.

"F-Father..." Liu Kai gritted his teeth. "I never expected Qin Jishi to have ties with the Young Prefecture Lord of Black Eagle. If Black and White Academy hadn't stepped in this time, our Liu Family might have fallen there. I think we cannot act rashly next."

Though he hated Qin Jishi beyond measure, so much that his teeth itched with hatred, reason told him that he absolutely could not act impulsively. Impulsiveness would bring irreversible ruin.

Was it a joke? If Qin Jishi's relationship with the Young Prefecture Lord of Black Eagle had been ordinary, would Sun Baitan have been forced to kneel?

That alone showed that Qin Jishi had deep ties with him. If they truly acted rashly, the Young Prefecture Lord of Black Eagle would likely not let the matter rest.

Hearing this, Liu Qiang forcibly suppressed his anger and nodded heavily. "My son is right. We absolutely cannot act rashly in this matter, but Qin Jishi must die..."

Qin Jishi had to die?

The hall was filled with elders and stewards, and the corners of their eyes twitched.

If something happened to Qin Jishi now, anyone would guess who was responsible. When that time came, who could bear the Young Prefecture Lord of Black Eagle's wrath?

Seeing the expressions of the Liu Family members, Liu Qiang's face darkened. "I know what you are thinking. Don't worry. If we move against Qin Jishi, I am not foolish enough to do it openly. Tomorrow, I will head to Black Eagle Prefecture and explain this matter to my younger sister. With her methods, making someone disappear without a trace should be easy enough."

The moment those words fell, a gleam flashed through the eyes of the elders and stewards who had been worried.

If that truly happened, there would be no evidence left behind. Even if the Young Prefecture Lord of Black Eagle became enraged, there would be nothing he could do.

"Clan Leader, Qin Jishi made our Liu Family lose all face. Even if he dies, we cannot let him die too easily."

"That's right. Unless he tastes the most painful torment in this world, the hatred in our hearts cannot be dispelled."

"..."

In that instant, everyone voiced their stance. If Qin Jishi had been standing before them, they would have wanted nothing more than to swallow him alive and flay him alive.

Yet just as they were filled with indignation and cursing without end—

Whoosh!

A ghostlike figure flashed out of the darkness, clapping his hands as he walked into the hall.

Clap, clap, clap... "It seems your hatred for me runs deep. How could I deny you the chance?"

"Who?"

Almost at the same time, everyone in the hall faced a great enemy. Their nerves tightened, and they stared fiercely toward the entrance.

Someone who could enter this place without their noticing—could he possibly be an ordinary person?

"A dignified Liu Family, yet you are nervous just facing me?" As the voice fell, a young man slowly strode into the hall.

Q-Qin Jishi...

After seeing who it was, everyone present was stunned. Then, towering killing intent replaced their shock.

Liu Qiang's expression shifted as he narrowed his eyes. "Qin Jishi, how did you get in?"

Though hatred had nearly robbed Liu Qiang of his reason, he forcibly restrained the fury within him, his gaze fixed tightly upon the other party.

One had to know that Liu Qiang was a Level One Baleful Intent martial artist. For Qin Jishi to appear here soundlessly without even him noticing—it was impossible for Liu Qiang not to take him seriously...

"How did I get in?" Qin Jishi spread his hand. "Isn't it obvious enough? I walked in, of course. Are you blind? Or is your vision blurry?"

"You..." The corner of Liu Qiang's eye twitched. Narrowing his eyes, he released his spiritual sense.

After confirming it repeatedly and sensing no Profound Qi fluctuations from Qin Jishi whatsoever, Liu Qiang relaxed. "You have a profound artifact that conceals your aura?"

Other than that explanation, he truly could not think of any other possibility.

Qin Jishi nodded without denying it. "Yes, I have a profound artifact that conceals my aura."

"Hmph!" With that confirmation, Liu Qiang instantly flew into a rage. "Qin Jishi, you truly have some nerve. I had not even gone looking for you, yet you dared to deliver yourself to my door. Don't think that just because you have ties with the Young Prefecture Lord of Black Eagle, I would not dare touch you."

"Hehe." Qin Jishi chuckled softly. "Of course you dare touch me. I just heard someone say he wanted to make me disappear without a trace."

As soon as those words left his mouth, the expressions of everyone in the hall changed. They unconsciously looked toward Liu Qiang. So long as he gave the order, they would certainly leave Qin Jishi here forever.

They understood that now that the other party knew their plan, Qin Jishi would definitely contact the Young Prefecture Lord of Black Eagle. Rather than wait for the Young Prefecture Lord's wrath, it was better to go all out and deal with Qin Jishi first.

Creak~

How could Liu Qiang not have thought of that? A trace of killing intent appeared without the slightest concealment.

"What? Are you going to make a move against me?"

Qin Jishi remained unmoved. "I gave your Liu Family a chance before, yet not only did you fail to cherish it, you repeatedly tried to put me to death."

"Fine!"

"Didn't you want to put me to death? I'm here now. Make your move."

"Qin Jishi!" Liu Qiang said in an icy voice, "Do you think we truly do not dare to act?"

"Hmph!" Qin Jishi snorted. "If you truly dared to act, would you have waited until now? I know what you fear. You fear nothing more than Pan Xu. To tell you the truth, no one knows I came here. You may boldly make your move against me."

The more Qin Jishi acted this way, the less certain Liu Qiang felt.

Who would willingly come here to die?

"What? You don't dare?" Qin Jishi sighed and shook his head. "Even when I give you a chance, you are useless."

"Fine!"

"I gave you the chance, but you could not seize it, so you cannot blame me. Now I have a small request. If I wipe you out, I trust you won't be angry, will you?"

"Qin Jishi!" Liu Kai's face twisted savagely. "You want to wipe us out? Then I'll wipe you out first."

Cold Moon Palm!

Of everyone in the Liu Family, none hated Qin Jishi more than Liu Kai. He wished he could carve Qin Jishi into a thousand pieces and make him endure torment day and night.

Now that he faced Qin Jishi's provocation, how could he suppress his rage?

Dense Profound Qi gathered in his palm, and a layer of frost appeared. The temperature within the hall suddenly plummeted at that moment.

Liu Kai held nothing back in this strike, pouring all his hatred into that palm.

Whoosh!

Watching Liu Kai appear before him in the blink of an eye, disdain flashed through Qin Jishi's eyes.

"Since you are so eager to reincarnate, I will grant your wish."

As his words fell, Qin Jishi clenched his fist. What looked like an ordinary punch contained immense terror as it collided with Liu Kai's palm.

Crack~

Boom!

An irresistible force tore directly through Liu Kai's arm. White bones snapped and jutted out, while spurting blood dyed the ground beneath his feet red. The force then smashed into his chest, sending his entire body flying like a cannonball before it crashed heavily into the ground, devoid of life...
