"Blood Cross..."

The Hall Clan Leader lowered his head, pondering for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and said in a deep voice, "Alright, agree to their proposal!"

On the other side.

Ye Qiu returned to the Hall Clan's residence with Mia'er.

Mia'er was clearly deeply affected by the Archery Club's incident. As soon as they entered, she tightly hugged Ye Qiu, pleadingly saying, "Qiu, you, please don't leave me, okay?"

"When did I ever say I would leave you?" Ye Qiu shook his head, smiling wryly, "I know what you're worried about, but I've already told you, I don't care about any of that. Do you not trust me anymore?"

"I do, of course I do." Mia'er nodded repeatedly, hugging Ye Qiu even tighter.

Knock knock knock!

The two embraced for a good while until suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Mia'er gently pushed Ye Qiu away, wiped her tears, and smiled, "It might be my father deciding to see you."

"Let's hope so." Ye Qiu turned and opened the door.

Immediately, he saw a bodyguard in black standing there straight, with a faint smile on his lips.

"What brings you here?" Mia'er asked excitedly.

The bodyguard looked at her respectfully and said, "Miss Mia'er, it's like this. The Clan Leader instructed me to fetch Ye Qiu, saying he wants to meet him."

"Really?" Mia'er was instantly even more excited, looking at Ye Qiu with anticipation:

"Qiu, you should go quickly. If my father is willing to talk to you in person, it means he's considering changing his mind! This way, we can return to Huaxia openly, without having to worry about the clan causing trouble for us."

Ye Qiu also smiled and said, "That is indeed good news. I'll go over and take a look. You wait here, and don't worry. No matter what happens, I'll handle it."

With that, he turned and left the room, following the bodyguard to meet the Hall Clan Leader.

Soon, they arrived at a long pathway.

On both sides were lush trees and a few small ponds with flowing water, presenting a beautiful scene, though the buildings blocked the sunlight, making it appear somewhat eerie.

Within less than five minutes, the bodyguard suddenly stopped his pace.

He glanced at Ye Qiu, then pointed to an open basement beside them, gesturing for him to enter, and said with a smile, "Mr. Ye, the Clan Leader is inside, let's go in."

"Alright." Ye Qiu nodded slightly and walked in.

The bodyguard followed him in.

Almost instantly, Ye Qiu's eyes narrowed!

Something's wrong!

Things are not right!

In this basement, forget about the Clan Leader, there wasn't even any furniture like a coffee table!

"This is a trap!"

Ye Qiu immediately realized what was going on, turned around to rush out of the basement.

His reaction was swift, but it was still a fraction too late!

Boom!

Accompanied by a loud bang, a heavy door suddenly dropped from the top of the basement entrance.

A door made of steel!

Completely blocking Ye Qiu's only escape route!

"Trouble!" Ye Qiu's face turned grim as he cautiously scanned the surroundings and only then noticed that the entire basement was made out of diamond.

A completely sealed space!

"Hahaha!"

At this moment, the bodyguard who led Ye Qiu to the basement burst into wild laughter, arrogantly claiming, "Ye Qiu, weren't you supposed to be incredibly strong? Turns out you're just so easily fooled here. You're done for!"

"You succeeded, so congratulations, you're dead now!"

Ye Qiu was also furious; his eyes filled with murderous intent instantly locked onto the bodyguard.

Whoosh!

The next second, Ye Qiu's powerful fist fiercely smashed out, landing on the bodyguard's head, and then with a bang, the bodyguard's head exploded, blood spraying everywhere!

Zzzzzz—Zzzzzz—

Almost simultaneously, harsh, ear-piercing noises continually entered Ye Qiu's ears!

The walls surrounding the basement suddenly revealed many holes!

A large amount of green poison gas was pouring out from these holes!

The poison was extremely potent!

In just two or three seconds, Ye Qiu began to feel dizzy and quickly held his breath!

"Damn it, they really want me dead!"

Ye Qiu cursed silently with fury burning within him at this moment!

Overwhelmed with anger!

This Hall Clan Leader didn't want to meet him and didn't want Mia'er to follow him, which was understandable because the Hall Clan was currently facing a tremendous crisis, and Mia'er was also one of their members.

But still, how could he resort to such underhanded tactics!

Betrayal!

Luring him into this fully enclosed gas chamber!

So vicious!

The more Ye Qiu thought about it, the angrier he became. However, at such a time, he didn't have much time to ponder further. With a swift leap, he dashed towards the position of the door and then struck out with his massive fist like a meteorite.

Boom!

A loud explosive sound echoed, causing the heavy door to vibrate slightly twice.

But this gas chamber was too sturdy!

The thickness of the walls and door was astonishing!

Even with Ye Qiu's full-strength punch, it only made the door shake a bit.

"Damn it!" Feeling the mortal danger, Ye Qiu's expression became heavier than ever. He could hold his breath to keep out the poison gas, but he couldn't keep holding it indefinitely.

He had to break open this gas chamber and get out before he couldn't hold his breath any longer!

"Hall Clan, you've pushed me to this!"

At this moment, within Ye Qiu, it felt as if a primordial beast from hell was roaring!

Simultaneously, elsewhere.

Inside a room equipped with monitoring screens!

The Hall Clan Leader was watching Ye Qiu through a large screen with an expressionless face.

Seeing Ye Qiu's fists unable to shake the gas chamber, the corner of his mouth twitchingly curved into a cold smile. He gestured to his subordinates behind him, speaking in a deep voice, "Immediately take men and capture Ye Qiu's subordinate called Cat for me!"

"Yes!"

Two black-clad subordinates responded in unison, then both turned and walked out of the monitoring room.

The Hall Clan Leader leaned back in a recliner, crossing his legs, gently swaying the wine glass in his hand, and leisurely watching Ye Qiu punch the gas chamber's door one punch after another!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Every punch Ye Qiu threw caused a loud noise, resembling rolling thunder.

The walls and door of the gas chamber also vibrated with each hit!

However, there was still no effect, unable to break through for the time being!

Contrastly, the smile on the Hall Clan Leader's face grew even broader, looking disdainfully at the relentless Ye Qiu, mocking, "Can't do it, huh? Just a slightly better fighter who's still useless; even with the Hall Clan on the brink of annihilation, killing you is a piece of cake!"

At this moment, Ye Qiu was exceedingly anxious!

The green poison gas also enveloped the entire gas chamber, obscuring vision.

Faced with this impregnable fortress, Ye Qiu indeed had no choice but to strike hard!

Crucially, he was almost out of breath!

Once he couldn't hold his breath anymore, a massive influx of poison gas would rush into his body instantly, taking his life!

In the monitoring room.

"Hahaha! Hahaha!"

The Hall Clan Leader laughed smugly, looking at Ye Qiu as if peering at a dead man, muttering coldly, "Ye Qiu, oh Ye Qiu, hammer away, I fear you don't even know that my gas chamber, though small, cost over ten billion to make. Even if a rocket cannon came, it would be hard to break through, let alone your fists!"

"Heh, even if you smash your fists to bits, there's absolutely no way to break this gas chamber, Ye Qiu, the situation is sealed, you wait for death!"
