As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Qingyan flew into an uncontrollable rage. He raised his arm and plunged his sword into Xihou Jiaping’s neck, causing him to pass out immediately.

“Master!!!” the woman who had been huddling in a corner on the couch yelled at the sight of Xihou Jiaping lying motionless. Sensing that someone was glaring at her menacingly, she immediately gasped and remained quiet while trembling uncontrollably.

Trying with all his might to bear with the pain in his calf, Jin Qingyan walked toward the woman who had fear written all over her face. She frantically pleaded, “Don’t kill me… don’t kill me… please don’t kill me.”

“I can spare your life, but you must tell me exactly just what’s going on with the children.”

She nodded and explained, “Before you guys arrived, Master sent his orders for the girl to be killed and instructed the underlings to send him a video of the process. You arrived as soon as he made that call.”

Just as Jin Qingyan was about to turn around, the woman shrieked in terror while staring at Xiao Chenyang.

He turned back to see that blood was splattered all across the walls and that Xihou Jiaping’s head had been severed from his body.

What a bloodbath.

The blood began flowing out of his body and onto the ground silently.

A terrifying silence filled the air.

Xiao Chenyang bent forward to grab Xihou Jiaping’s mobile phone before walking toward Jin Qingyan. He then handed the mobile phone to Jin Qingyan and said, “Since we arrived shortly after he made the call, it should be the last call he’d made with this mobile phone.”

Jin Qingyan grabbed it and looked through the call history. Upon finding the number, he immediately dialed it, after which a voice answered, “Master.”

“I’m not your master, I’m Jin Qingyan. Your Master is in my hands now. Release those three children and send them to the airport of M Nation safely. Otherwise, I’ll give you a hard time.”

“Do you really think we’d believe you just because you have his mobile phone?”

“Of course not.” He handed the mobile phone to the woman and glared at her with a threatening expression, seemingly trying to warn her. “Say something,” he instructed.

The woman grabbed the mobile phone with trembling hands and said, “It’s me, yes, Master is in their hands now. Hurry and send the children to the airport…”

She ended the call and returned the mobile phone to Jin Qingyan.

As soon as he took it from her, the woman collapsed onto the ground after being shot in her forehead.

“She’s the owner of the nightclub where Xihou Jiaping trapped me in the water tank previously. I promised not to kill her,” said Jin Qingyan.

“She’s a member of the DK Organization. We’re doing the citizens good by killing her,” said Xiao Chenyang.

He clapped his hands, after which a few bodyguards entered almost immediately.

They all belonged to Jin Qingyan.

“Incinerate these two corpses and clean up the mess here. You’re not to divulge a single detail about what had happened here. Got it?” Jin Qingyan instructed.

“Yes, Young Sir.”

Staring at Jin Qingyan’s calf, Xiao Chenyang asked, “Are you okay?”

“What do you think?”

Xiao Chenyang smiled and said, “Poor you. It would initially take just a couple of months to heal, but your condition has worsened. Seems like you’re going to have to be bedridden again.”

“Even then, it’s still worth it, isn’t it?”

“Although Xihou Jiaping is dead, don’t forget that his power and authority are not gone yet. DK Organization is the most notorious and feared terrorist organization in the world, and none of the nations could eradicate them, despite working together. I don’t think we can annihilate all of them so soon. Rome wasn’t built in a day. Once the news about Xihou Jiaping’s death spreads to M Nation, we’ll never know what his bunch of lackeys might come up with or what extreme actions they might take.”

“That’s why we must keep this under wraps and not allow a single detail to be leaked for now.” Jin Qingyan extended his hand and said, “Help me out of here.”

Xiao Chenyang proceeded accordingly.

On the way back, Jin Qingyan said to him, “Thank you so much for doing me such a huge favor. If it weren’t for your help, I wouldn’t have been confident about killing him.”

“I didn’t do this entirely for you, it’s mostly because I wanted to take my revenge too. Previously, I had been searching for him for years. He knew that I was searching for him too, so he kept playing hide-and-seek with me. I only found out recently that he’s the kingpin of the DK Organization. If I had only killed him earlier, none of these things would have happened today. However, we acted at the right time today. We made it in time for the Hungry Ghost festival.”

“About the curse… is that real?”

“It is,” answered Xiao Chenyang, who was driving.

“Who was the one who had put the curse on us?”

“Frankly speaking, I don’t know much. Let’s talk about that after the children have returned safely,” said Xiao Chenyang.

Jin Qingyan expressed assent and said, “Alright, but I’ll still need to trouble you with the children. It’s inconvenient for me to move about now, and M Nation is the DK Organization’s territory. I’m afraid of landing in booby traps, but I’ll feel safe with you around.”

“No problem, but I want something in return.”

“What is it?”

“I want you to visit our mentor’s grave and apologize to him. Although you two have severed ties and never saw each other again, I know that he still dotes on you and misses you dearly. He had always treated you like his son. So many years have passed. He would definitely be elated if he were to know that you had visited his grave. He would definitely stop being angry at you too.”

Thinking that he ought to do so anyway, Jin Qingyan agreed. “Bring me there after the children are back.”

Xihou Jiaping’s mobile phone began to ring. Jin Qingyan squinted after taking a look at the caller display.

“Who called?”

Jin Qingyan showed Xiao Chenyang the screen, after which they looked at each other and remained quiet while a somber mood filled the air.

….

As soon as they arrived home, everyone rushed toward the car, including Yu Yiwei.

“Qingyan, how’s it going?”

Jin Qingyan alighted from the car slowly and said, “We caught him at first but he managed to escape. Shixin, come with me to the bedroom, I have something to say to you.”

“Yes, Young Sir.”

Fan Shixin helped him into the house while the rest followed closely behind. Yu Yiwei was the only one who heaved a sigh of relief.

Jin Qingyan lay down on the bed, after which Fan Shixin asked, “Young Sir, what did you want to say to me?”

“Bring a few bodyguards along and head to the airport of M Nation together with Xiao Chenyang. Wait for the children there.”

“Wait, Young Sir, didn’t you say…”

“Come here…” said Jin Qingyan, motioning for Fan Shixin to come closer.

Fan Shixin bent forward, and Jin Qingyan began whispering into his ear. After hearing what had happened, Fan Shixin instantly got the goosebumps and he said, “Alright, got it. I’ll now do as you instructed.”

“Okay, go ahead. Get your Young Madam to come upstairs too.”

“Yes.”

As soon as Fan Shixin left, An Xiaoning made her way upstairs.

Feeling worried and impatient, An Xiaoning asked, “What do we do now…? I’m worried sick. Why are you still smiling?”

“Xiaoning, Xihou Jiaping is dead.”

An Xiaoning sat down and grabbed his hand. Her eyes lit up and she asked in disbelief, “Really?”
