"No wonder he didn't leave when I told him to earlier. Looking at it now, my actions back then were so ridiculous."

Wang Lingling's face flushed red with embarrassment.

Perhaps Chairman Li even found her words amusing at the time?

Apart from shame, she felt more relieved.

If not for Chairman Li's intervention today, she would have been taken away by those from the Qin Family.

On the other side, the remaining few from the Qin Family were so terrified that they didn't dare to breathe. They looked at each other, not knowing what to do next.

After all, even their Third Uncle, who had broken through to the Celestial Realm, was not a match for the boy before them. They stood no chance.

Escape?

They wanted to.

But it was obvious, even without thinking, that the other party would never let them go.

"Speak. How did you track us down?"

Chen Fan asked.

He did this mainly to ensure that there were no hidden tricks being played with the Longevity Technique in Wang Lingling's hands.

Another reason was to make Wang Lingling completely believe in his ability to foresee everything.

"If we tell you, will you let us go?" someone asked, trembling.

"Second Brother, what are you saying?"

Another person shouted loudly, "Do you think he would let us go?"

"Yeah, Big Brother, Third Uncle, Fifth Uncle, they were all killed by him. Big Brother and the others also died by his hand. There's no way we can leave here alive. We might as well," someone gritted their teeth, "fight him to the death."

"Yes, fight him to the death!"

However, the man called Second Brother hesitated.

Fight him to the death?

Easier said than done.

For him, killing us was as easy as crushing an ant.

"Nonsense."

Chen Fan frowned and pointed a finger at the man who had looked the most agitated earlier.

A streak of Sword Qi shot out, instantly breaking through the man's Protective True Qi and piercing his forehead.

"Ugh."

The man opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't utter a word, and fell backward.

"Third Brother!"

"Third Brother!"

Two startled voices cried out.

But soon, they too had their foreheads pierced by a streak of Sword Qi, meeting the same fate.

In the blink of an eye, there were only four people left alive on the scene.

Two of them were from the Qin Family.

One of them had already lost the ability to fight and was lying on the ground.

"Gulp."

Qin Jiyang swallowed hard and with a plopping sound, knelt on the ground, begging continuously, "Senior, please don't kill me. Don't kill me. As long as you spare me, I'm willing to do anything for you, to go through fire and water."

Wang Lingling looked on with a look of disdain.

Earlier, when the Qin Family had surrounded them, this guy had been the most vocal.

Now, he was the most cowardly.

"Do anything?"

"Yes, yes."

Qin Jiyang nodded like a pecking chicken, his face showing an ingratiating smile.

"Senior, to tell you the truth, you killed my elder brother. To others, it's an irreconcilable hatred, but to me, I am grateful to you."

"Oh? Why is that?"

Chen Fan asked curiously.

"Senior, you may not know, but my elder brother was actually a waste."

Qin Jiyang sneered, "In terms of temperament and talent, I'm better than him. But because he was the firstborn, he always suppressed me in every way. He even took the position of Patriarch. But now things are different."

His eyes sparkled with excitement.

"You killed him, so the position of Patriarch falls to me. If I'm not mistaken, Senior, you want the Divine Demon Level Technique, right? Once I become the Patriarch, I can get you any Divine Demon Level Technique within the family."

"!"

Hearing this, Wang Lingling's eyes lit up.

What this man said seemed to make sense?

Just like Qin Hao, he could easily access Divine Demon-level Martial Arts because his father was the Patriarch of the Qin Family.

If this person went back and became the Qin Family Patriarch?

But then she quickly calmed down.

Because it seemed to have nothing to do with her?

Even if they obtained more Divine Demon-level Martial Arts, what did it matter to her? She still wouldn't see them...

"Is that so?"

Chen Fan asked, "So how can you guarantee that you will definitely become the Patriarch once you return?"

"Well..."

Qin Jiyang was taken aback, stammering, "That, I can't guarantee. I can only say that's how it should be. After all, with Big Brother dead, there's no one among our peers who can compare to me. Even if there were, you, Senior, have already killed them."

As he spoke, he glanced at the surrounding corpses and shivered.

He knew his life hung in the balance.

If he couldn't convince the other party, another corpse would soon join the others on the ground.

Chen Fan pondered for a moment and said, "First, answer my previous question. How did you find us?"

"It was thanks to Fifth Uncle."

Qin Jiyang answered without hesitation, "Fifth Uncle practiced the Emperor's Qi Observation Skill, which can divine the information we seek. It was through his divination that we discovered your location and then used the jade stone to track you."

"Jade stone?"

Chen Fan frowned, "What jade stone?"

"This one."

Qin Jiyang carefully opened his palm, revealing a pebble-sized green stone lying in his hand.

The stone was glowing brightly.

"The sheepskin parchment recording the Longevity Technique is made of a special material, invulnerable to blades and immune to fire and water. It can also be sensed by this jade stone. When within a hundred kilometers, the jade stone starts to sense it, and the closer the distance, the stronger the sensation..."
