Expelled from the Qin Family

The night, which had been quiet moments earlier, instantly erupted into chaos.

The entire Qin Family heard that Second Young Master Qin Hao had been attacked and immediately thought the Great Xia Royal Family had played dirty and launched a sneak attack. They all furiously drew their weapons, ready to hack the culprit to pieces.

And when they saw Qin Hao, their anger shot through the roof.

Could anyone in this world be so cruel? They had actually dug the Supreme Bone out of a five-year-old child while he was still alive. This wasn't just vicious—it had cut off the future hopes of their Qin Family.

This was beyond what anyone could endure!

Even an aunt could endure it, but I couldn't!

But when everyone heard who the culprit was, they were utterly dumbfounded.

Qin Feng!!

How could that be!?

Who didn't know the Eldest Young Master of the Qin Family was polite and refined, diligent and hardworking, and excelled in both conduct and scholarship? From a young age, he had shown exceptional upbringing and was everyone's undisputed choice for the next family head.

How could he have done something so cruel, personally digging out his younger brother's Supreme Bone!?

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

The Qin Family members shook their heads again and again. They wouldn't believe it was Qin Feng even if they were beaten to death.

Although Qin Feng often bullied Qin Hao, in their eyes it was just ordinary roughhousing between children. The brothers had always been close. How could he possibly do something so cruel?

"It was him! That unfilial son!"

Pain and fury tangled across Qin Tian's face, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

He had once had a happy, complete family, but the Great Xia Royal Family had torn father and sons apart.

All he could do was watch his eight-year-old eldest son struggle to survive outside, unable to offer him any help, while his five-year-old younger son endured the agony of having his bone dug out and the pain of being broken before rising anew...

How could he, as a father, not be furious?!

"Pfft..."

Qin Tian could no longer hold it in and spat out a mouthful of blood.

As head of the Qin Family, he had shouldered too much. But he couldn't tell anyone, so he could only bear the burden alone and keep moving forward.

"Family Head!"

The Qin Family members were

frightened out of their wits, and finally believed that Qin Feng was responsible.

As the head of the Number One Clan of the Ancient Wasteland, Qin Tian's cultivation was unfathomably deep. Yet even he had been angered into spitting blood, showing just how much pain this had caused him.

Both were flesh of his flesh, yet the brothers had turned against each other. No parent could bear such a thing!

Just then—

The Second Ancestor of the Qin Family spoke. "Qin Feng grew jealous and dug out his younger brother's Supreme Bone to use for himself. He committed a heinous crime. When his actions were exposed, he showed no remorse and even injured the guards before fleeing the Qin Family. In the name of the Second Ancestor of the Qin Family, I hereby declare that Qin Feng, this unfilial son, is expelled from the Qin Family. Issue the Qin Family's Kill Order. He is to be killed on sight!"

"Expelled from the family? Killed on sight?!"

The Qin Family members were shocked and hoped the Second Ancestor would show mercy.

Qin Hao's Supreme Bone was already ruined. If they also lost Qin Feng, who had Emperor's Talent, what chance would the Qin Family have of prevailing in the Great Era of Contention?!

"His character makes him unworthy of being a Qin Family Disciple!"

The Second Ancestor forced his trembling voice to steady as he spoke the most disingenuous words of his life.

If Qin Feng was unworthy—

Who could ever be worthy of becoming a Qin Family Disciple?!

At that moment—

The sun slowly rose above the horizon.

The First Ancestor of the Qin Family and the others stood atop the Qin Family's tower, watching the distant figure of the child.

From this day on, he would carry the hopes of the entire Qin Family and endure countless trials, dancing on the tip of a blade. One careless step, and he would be shattered to pieces and fall into a bottomless abyss.

Yet they could do nothing to help him. Everything would depend on him alone, on his young shoulders carrying the burden.

"Isn't this decision too cruel? He's only eight!"

The Ten Ancestors could no longer hold back. Tears welled in his eyes.

As Qin Feng's great-grandfather, he had raised him from childhood. Naturally, he and Qin Feng shared an extraordinary bond. Watching the child struggle to survive outside tore at his heart like a knife.

"Since ancient times, great talents have endured many hardships. Yes, he's eight, but his mind and cultivation are far beyond those of an eight-year-old child."

The Progenitor stared resolutely at the figure as it disappeared into the distance. He believed the child would return safely, carrying the Qin Family's hopes and bringing back boundless honor for the family.

"Don't worry. Don't forget, the Blood Moon accompanied his birth!"

The Second Ancestor spoke to reassure them, reminding everyone of the scene when Qin Feng was born.

The Blood Moon Demon had emerged into the world. The Ancient Wasteland would soon be thrown into chaos, and the Great Era of Contention was fast approaching.

Before long—

The tragedy of the Qin Family spread, leaving everyone stunned.

The Eldest Young Master of the Qin Family had envied his younger brother's talent and personally dug out his Supreme Bone. Afterwards, he showed no remorse and was expelled from the family, which issued a kill order against him throughout the Ancient Wasteland.

The explosive news and shocking details were like a boulder flung into still water. In an instant, the story spread across the entire Ancient Wasteland.

It also reached the ears of the Emperor of Great Xia, who immediately summoned his ministers.

"Is it true? Could this be a Qin Family ploy to make us let our guard down?"

"The news has been confirmed. The Qin Family's second young master really did have his Supreme Bone dug out. Family Head Qin Tian was so enraged that he spat blood and collapsed."

"The Qin Family's eldest son is ruthless. He even dared to do that to his own younger brother."

"Cultivation has always been survival of the fittest. So what if it's his younger brother?"

"The Qin Family's two great Heavenly Prides—one ruined, one fled. Heaven truly favors Great Xia!"

"The Qin Family is no longer a threat. We can avoid a war."

"The Qin Family's eldest son is still alive. With a Supreme Bone, he remains a threat. We must eliminate him to be safe."

"He's nothing to worry about. From the moment he dug out the Supreme Bone, he was doomed never to reach the summit."

"Exactly. He's begun doubting his own strength. His invincible heart is gone, so he's no threat."

"..."

The Emperor of Great Xia sat high upon the Dragon Throne, feeling as if everything were a dream.

Just last night, he had been discussing with his ministers how to quickly break through the Qin Family's defenses. Who could have guessed that by this morning, the Qin Family would have crumbled from within, both of its Heavenly Prides fallen from grace, while the Great Xia Royal Family remained in its prime?

"Hahaha! Good, good!"

The Emperor of Great Xia couldn't help laughing out loud. He decided to pick a consort and celebrate properly.

At that moment—

Qin Feng was leisurely riding his little donkey along the road to the Yin Moon Dynasty.

"I've finally saved up a million Villain Points!"

Qin Feng looked at the system's display: 1,156,500 Villain Points. Without hesitation, he spent one million Villain Points to exchange for 100% compatibility.

"Ding-dong! Congratulations, Host. You have spent one million Villain Points to exchange for a 100% Compatibility Card!"

"Ding-dong! Congratulations, Host. You have used the 100% Compatibility Card. Your compatibility with the Thirty-Three Heavens Creation Art has reached 100%!"

Thunder roared through Qin Feng's mind. He fell into an unconscious state, yet could clearly sense the laws of heaven and earth. His understanding of the Thirty-Three Heavens Creation Art also deepened.

Put simply, before, he could only use sixty percent of his full strength. Now, he could use all of it. His strength had undergone a qualitative leap.

"So this is what 100% compatibility feels like?"

Qin Feng came to his senses and couldn't help sighing. He finally understood the joy of being the Son of Heaven.

If he faced Lin San again, he was confident he could beat him so badly his own mother wouldn't recognize him, without even using the Cutting Heaven Sword Drawing Technique—provided Lin San hadn't had any lucky encounters lately.

Just then—

A strange, sinister cackle came from up ahead. "Little girl, don't be afraid. Just let a few of us brothers give you a little chill, and we'll let you go, how about that?"

"Hm? A hero saving a beauty?"

Qin Feng froze on the spot. Was this the kind of perk a villain like him got...?
