As Ning Wangshu's gaze fell on Qin Jingshen, Qin Jingshen came back to himself with a start, his body trembling.
Though he had been mentally prepared, he still couldn't suppress his fear when death truly came for him. With a thump, he dropped to his knees before Ning Wangshu, panic written across his face. "S-Senior, spare me..."
Even if his chance of survival was vanishingly small, he still wanted to try.
But the moment the words left his mouth, Ning Wangshu gave a soft snort and struck down through the air with his palm. Before Qin Jingshen could finish speaking, he exploded with a bang, blasted into a cloud of blood mist!
The Huaiyang King and the others nearby were startled.
They exchanged glances, feeling a lingering fear—and, at the same time, a measure of relief.
"Good thing we knelt quickly. Otherwise, we'd surely have died here today!"
"Exactly. Better to live on in disgrace than die. Even though our lives are now in someone else's hands, we're still alive, aren't we?"

After slapping Qin Jingshen to death, Ning Wangshu didn't spare him another glance. He simply said, "City Lord Luo, let's return to the City Lord's Mansion first and deal with the remaining members of the Qin family."
Luo Shuqing quickly replied, "Of course, Senior!"
In the next moment, Ning Wangshu transformed into a streak of rainbow light and returned to the City Lord's Mansion.
Luo Shuqing glanced at the Huaiyang King and the others, then said, "You lot, come along too."
"Yes, yes!"
The Huaiyang King and the others didn't dare say anything more. They answered obediently, then followed Luo Shuqing to the City Lord's Mansion...
At that moment,
inside the City Lord's Mansion,
