Chapter 102: Coercion by the Qin Princes Mansion, Is Qin Xuan at a Dead End?
Qin Zhenbei glanced at Qin Xuan, without a trace of emotion, and said, "It was you who chose to leave the Qin Family, and it was also you who refused to acknowledge your identity as a member of the Qin Family. Today, my Qin Family will not deploy a single soldier for you."
Shangguan Ya's delicate body trembled with resentment, and she said angrily, "Qin Zhenbei, let me go!"
She could not understand how a person could be so cold-hearted.
To be able to watch his own legitimate son die a tragic death right before his eyes?
Qin Xuan had killed many Prodigies of the Aristocratic Families in the Dragon Blood Secret Realm.
Without a backer, he would die without a place to be buried!
She no longer expected the Qin Princes Mansion to intervene, but she never would have dreamed that Qin Zhenbei would actually come here to stop her!
"Qin Zhenbei, if you are unwilling to save him, then roll back to your Qin Princes Mansion and leave me alone!"
Qin Zhenbei turned a deaf ear to her.
He simply raised his hand, and from behind, the heroically youthful Qin Hao walked out.
He had a delicate face and a slender figure.
The incomplete version of the Supreme Bone inside his body, after absorbing the crushed powder of the complete Supreme Bone, had now advanced and was nearing Perfection.
This caused his Realm to advance by leaps and bounds, having already stepped into the Deva Realm.
With a face full of anger, he looked at Shangguan Ya and scolded, "Mother! Do you know what Qin Xuan has done?"
"He killed countless Prodigies of the Aristocratic Families. This is a blood feud, an unending enmity. Are you sure you want to risk universal condemnation just to protect him?!"
Shangguan Ya clenched her fists in resentment, but in front of her beloved younger son, she ultimately could not harden her heart. She said painfully, "That is your older brother, your sibling. You share a bloodline; even if the bones are broken, they are still connected by tendons!"
Qin Hao sneered, "So, you are going to ruin the entire Qin Princes Mansion now just for one Qin Xuan?"
"With so many Aristocratic Families, even if our Qin Princes Mansion opposes them, it would be a dead end with no chance of survival."
"Right now, you want to make the clansmen of the Qin Domain, Father, and me, your son, all die together just for Qin Xuan?!"
Shangguan Ya stared blankly at the cold Qin Hao before her.
Her heart was bleeding.
Qin Hao's expression grew colder, and his voice was chillingly cold as he said, "Qin Xuan is a murderer, and murderers must pay with their lives! It is only natural and right for the Aristocratic Families to seek revenge!"
"He deserves to die!"
Qin Hao looked at Qin Zhenbei and said, "Father, release Mother."
Qin Zhenbei furrowed his brows but did not object.
He lifted the Glazed Li Fire Cover, releasing Shangguan Ya.
Qin Hao stepped aside from where he was blocking Shangguan Ying, pointed at Qin Xuan's direction, and said bluntly, "Mother, if you want to save Qin Xuan, then go ahead and save him."
"I, Qin Hao, am a person of the Qin Princes Mansion in life and its ghost in death. Since you want to ruin our Qin Princes Mansion, there is no need for these Aristocratic Families to act. I will die right before your eyes right now!"
With that, he held his sword across his neck.
The sharp sword-light had already cut his throat, and blood dripped down the cold, gleaming blade.
"Hao'er!" Shangguan Ya cried out in extreme pain, tears streaming down her face as she hurriedly rushed forward.
Qin Hao stopped her with his gaze, took half a step back, and just silently stared at the weeping Shangguan Ya. He said coldly, "Mother, you can stop me once, but can you stop me ten times? If I am bent on dying, how can you guard against it?"
All the origin energy in Shangguan Ya's body seemed to be drained, and she collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
She covered her face with her hands, sobbing in agony, "Why, why must you force your mother like this?"
"Why can't you brothers get along in harmony?"
"Must you force your mother to choose, carving out a piece of flesh from my heart?!"
She could turn against Qin Zhenbei.
She even dared to fight Qin Zhenbei with her life on the line.
But she could not, truly could not, bear to watch Qin Hao seek death.
He was her heart, her soul.
He was the spiritual pillar that had sustained her for over a decade after she thought she had lost Qin Xuan!
Qin Hao only stared venomously at Qin Xuan's direction and spoke coldly, "He brought this death upon himself. Since he has already left the Qin Family, why should he cause our Qin Family to be overthown for him?"
He could not wait to see Qin Xuan die.
Because of Qin Xuan, his mother had already turned against his father and the Qin Princes Mansion.
Even his father, at times, had begun to regret previously expelling Qin Xuan from the Qin Princes Mansion.
Since Qin Xuan's return, his own position in the Qin Princes Mansion had begun to destabilize.
Now, there was even gossip spreading within the Qin Domain.
Rumors said he was inferior to Qin Xuan.
There were even countless people who, upon hearing of Qin Xuan's encounters in the Yaochi Sacred Land, bluntly stated that the position of Heir Apparent might as well be given to Qin Xuan instead!
Everything that was supposed to belong to him was being taken away by Qin Xuan bit by bit.
He could not tolerate it; he could not make any more concessions.
Today was the best opportunity to kill Qin Xuan.
He would not allow his mother to have any lingering affection for Qin Xuan!
"Mother, it is time for you to make a choice. Hao'er will absolutely not resent you!"
Qin Hao had already sliced his throat with the sword, and hot blood was gushing out.
Shangguan Ya raised her hand in a panic, "No, Hao'er, don't!"
Looking at Qin Hao who was bent on dying, Shangguan Ya's mind and soul trembled as she lowered her head, her heart turning cold. "Mother... will do as you wish."
"Heh!"
Witnessing this scene, Qin Xuan let out a sneering laugh.
The Qin Princes Mansion was truly of this same virtue as always.
They spoke with such righteousness.
If it was a personal grudge, just call it a personal grudge.
Was there any need to gild their own faces like this?
And claiming to consider the Qin Princes Mansion and the Qin Domain?
These Aristocratic Families dared to kill him, but could they possibly dare to slaughter the Qin Domain that guarded the borders?
Wasn't that pure nonsense?
He was too lazy to argue. In any case, the Qin Princes Mansion had always been an enemy in his mind; he had never counted on them!
"Qin Xuan, today is your end!"
The Patriarch of the Sun Family jumped out, no longer hiding his intentions. "The Ziyang Ten Divisions dragged out a scapegoat, but this Patriarch knows very well in his heart that the one who killed my son is none other than you, Qin Xuan!"
"Today, even your biological father and mother have abandoned you and left you to your fate."
"The Yaochi Sacred Land you joined has even directly sealed its mountains."
"Even if the King of Heaven himself came, he could not save you!"
This Patriarch at the Peak of the Saint Realm turned into a streak of black lightning.
Shattering the Void Realm, he charged straight for Qin Xuan's throat.
Qin Xuan raised his hand, and the ancient prison-suppressing tower rested in his palm.
"ancient prison-suppressing tower, suppress!"
Once the pressure of the quasi-emperor artifact spread out,
even those in the Saint King Realm would feel terrified by it.
Not to mention that the Patriarch of the Sun Family was only at the Peak of the Saint Realm.
Caught off guard, he was suppressed within a spatial rift along with the shattered space by the ancient prison-suppressing tower.
Like an old dog with its head stuck in a guillotine, he barked wildly, "Qin Xuan, so what if you have this small tower?"
"You can temporarily stop this Patriarch, but how can you stop so many Saint Kings?"
"Your enemies are too many, so many that even if you had another small tower, it could not protect you!"
More than five Saint King Realm cultivators watched him like tigers eyeing their prey.
They wanted to avenge the Prodigies of their own families,
and even more so, they did not want a freak like Qin Xuan to continue growing.
Otherwise, there was no telling how much trouble he would cause in the future.
This danger had to be nipped in the bud!
"There really are quite a lot of people who want to kill me, enough to fill the positions of the Peak Masters of the Seven Great Peaks of the Yaochi Sacred Land."
Qin Xuan scanned them with complete indifference and nodded in wonder, "But which of you dares to make a move against me?"
He stretched out his right arm and choked Ning Wuya, who had been spat out from the small tower.
Holding him like a dead dog, he looked at the crowd of Saint King Realm cultivators with a mocking expression. "If any of you dares to take another step forward, I will kill this son of a bitch!"
