Chapter 2
Atop the seat of honor, the Great Elder of the Qin Family's expression was unpredictable.
He was secretly annoyed that Qinchuan had returned alive!
Taking a deep breath, he sternly said to Qinchuan, "Qinchuan..."
"Call me Young Master!"
Qinchuan suddenly turned back, his eyes harsh as he looked at the Qin Family Great Elder. This old dog, not only had he sent people to ambush him, but he had also wanted to marry his sister to the Lin Family's Third Young Master who had a tendency to torture young girls!
Therefore, at this moment, Qinchuan had not a shred of courtesy for the Qin Family Great Elder!
Upon hearing this, the Great Elder's expression suddenly stiffened, and then his face violently twitched. Although he was raging inside, he dared not lash out.
Because the youth before him was the Qin Asura!
Over these three years, Qinchuan had emerged from fields of corpses and seas of blood time and again, waging battles in all directions, accumulating an endless aura of prestige. The murderous air about him was countless times more intense than that of these elders!
This was an aura forged in slaughter!
Even though he was the Great Elder of the Qin Family, he was deeply wary of him!
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his anger, and said, "Young Master, you must understand that our Qin Family is now under oppression from the Zhao Family. Although the Zhao Family has not yet struck us down with a heavy hand, that day will inevitably come!"
"In the Great Wilderness City, only the Lin Family can protect the Qin Family, and only they can contend with the Zhao Family!"
"The Qin Family can only survive through a marriage alliance with the Lin Family. As the Young Master, do you not understand this point?"
His granddaughter, Qin Lu, also spoke up, "That's right, Qinchuan, our Qin Family is currently on the brink of life and death. The Third Young Master of the Lin Family has taken a fancy to your sister, Qin Xiaoyu, which is a stroke of luck for her..."
However, before she could finish her words, an ice-cold gaze had already landed on her. That gaze was cold, ruthless, filled with brutality and cruelty, making her heart suddenly tremble violently, causing her voice to fade to a whisper until it completely disappeared.
"My sister's stroke of luck?"
Qinchuan's voice was gloomy, and his words were laced with a chilling intent. A terrible aura of killing intent pressed towards her, immediately causing Qin Lu to turn deathly pale with fear in her eyes.
"Since you praise the Lin Family so highly, then why don't you marry into the Lin Family yourself, instead of wanting my sister to marry that good-for-nothing prodigal of the Lin Family?"
Qinchuan's eyes narrowed as he coldly spoke to Qin Lu.
Then, he turned his head back toward the Qin Family Great Elder, but his Iron Blood Long Spear pointed at Qin Lu as he said, "You keep saying that only through a marriage alliance with the Lin Family can the Qin Family survive. I ask you then, why doesn't your granddaughter marry into the Lin Family, hm?!"
Qinchuan's gaze was threatening, and the Long Spear pointed at Qin Lu flashed with a grim cold light, exuding a terrifying aura of murder!
The acrid smell of blood and the strong aura of slaughter caused Qin Lu's body to shake violently.
"That's because the Third Young Master of the Lin Family has taken a fancy to Qin Xiaoyu..."
Pressured by Qinchuan, the Great Elder of the Qin Family opened his mouth, struggling to speak.
"Is that so?"
"So you mean to say, if the Third Young Master were willing to marry Qin Lu, you would be willing to marry her off to him?"
Qinchuan sneered, turning his head to look at Lin Que, the elder son of the Lin Family sitting among the guests, pointing the Iron Blood Long Spear at Qin Lu, "This girl, in a marital alliance with your Lin Family, what do you say?"
Lin Que's face was difficult to read, "My third brother has taken a fancy to..."
Qinchuan's eyes slightly narrowed, and the Iron Blood Long Spear, originally pointed at Qin Lu, suddenly aimed at Lin Que as he coldly said, "Think carefully before you speak!"
Lin Que's fingers turned white, his complexion growing even uglier.
Taking a deep breath and looking at the Iron Blood Long Spear at his throat, smelling the strong scent of blood emanating from it, and feeling the terrible murderous aura from Qinchuan, he managed a strained smile and said, "If Miss Qin Lu is willing, I'm sure my third brother would also be overjoyed."
Although he was the elder son of the Lin Family, he still held deep apprehension towards Qinchuan.
The Qin Asura, the Blood Robe, was not an unwarranted reputation!
His methods were ruthless, his decisions were decisive, and he acted without any scruples!
Now, on the Qin Family's territory, even if he was known as the great young master of the first family of the Great Wilderness City, he had to tread carefully!
At least in Qinchuan's presence, he had to!
Hearing Lin Que's words, Qin Lu's face instantly turned bloodless, eyes filled with terror.
To marry the Third Young Master?
"No!"
"I don't want to marry the Third Young Master. Grandfather, I don't want to marry the Third Young Master..."
Qin Lu suddenly screamed, begging the Qin Family Great Elder. Fear was evident in her eyes!
She knew all about the infamy of the Third Young Master.
To marry him would be to ruin her entire life!
She would live in a nightmare forever!
The Great Elder of the Qin Family also had a drastic change in complexion as he looked at Lin Que, "Elder son of the Lin Family..."
"Smack!"
However, just at that moment,
a loud slap suddenly rang out.
Clear!
Loud!
It echoed throughout the entire hall!
Shocking everyone present!
Following the sound of that loud slap, a figure was sent flying instantaneously.
That soaring figure was none other than Qin Lu!
And Qinchuan, appeared out of nowhere right where Qin Lu had been standing!
His gaze was cold as he looked at Qin Lu, whom he had sent flying with a slap, and he rebuked coldly, "Just now, didn't you insist that marrying that profligate from the Lin Family was a blessing earned over eight lifetimes?"
"Why now, when it's time for you to marry the Third Young Master of the Lin Family, are you unwilling?"
"At this critical juncture of the Qin Family's survival, as a Miss of the Qin Family, can't you make a bit of sacrifice for our family? Can't you consider the clan for once?! Do you even have the family in your heart? Hmm?!"
"You yourself are unwilling to marry him, yet you want my sister to do so?!"
"Haven't you ever heard of the saying, 'Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire'?!"
With each question, his voice resonated through the hall, making the hearts of many Qin Family members and elders tremble with fear as they watched the tall figure in the Blood Robe.
Qin Lu, completely dazed from the slap, had her right cheek swelling up, her mouth bleeding.
She covered her right cheek, stared at Qinchuan, and screamed, "You... you dared to hit me?!"
"Hit you?"
Qinchuan snorted coldly, his body full of murderous aura, dragging the Iron Blood Long Spear behind him as he walked towards Qin Lu. The Iron Blood Long Spear ground against the floor, creating a string of brilliant sparks, with a crisp sound.
"The palm imprint on Xiaoyu's face, was it your doing?"
Qinchuan's eyes narrowed, his eyes bursting with killing intent, as his icy words emanated from his lips, immediately causing Qin Lu's figure to tremble uncontrollably.
"You... what do you plan to do?"
Seeing Qinchuan approaching her with a murderous air, Qin Lu retreated in fear.
"What am I going to do?"
"My sister, Qin Asura's sister, is someone you can bully?!"
Qinchuan's gaze frosted over, and his figure blurred swiftly.
"Pfft!"
"Ah..."
A flash of cold light passed by.
Followed by a piercing scream.
An arm flew up into the air, trailing a string of bright red blood!
"This time, it's an arm, next time, it will be your head!"
Qinchuan's eyes were stern; his Iron Blood Long Spear once again stained with blood, pointed at Qin Lu's forehead, and the blood slowly dripped down, dazzlingly red!
"Luer!"
The Qin Family's Great Elder abruptly snapped out of his shock. Seeing this scene, his eyes nearly burst with rage as he stormed towards Qinchuan and bellowed, "Qinchuan, how dare you..."
"Swish!"
Qinchuan, with an indifferent look, dragged his Iron Blood Long Spear across the ground, creating a trail of sparks, and suddenly pointed it at the Great Elder of the Qin Family, his eyes cold, "Do you also want to test if my spear is sharp enough?!"
A terrifying momentum burst forth from Qinchuan's body. That dreadful aura of slaughter made everybody's heart tremble.
The Great Elder of the Qin Family instantly had his pupils contract, stopping in his tracks, staggering backwards under the pressure of the killing intent exploding from Qinchuan!
In reality, his cultivation level was not lower than Qinchuan's, only higher!
But, over the years, the killing aura Qinchuan had accumulated was overwhelmingly powerful!
Qin Asura, Blood Asura, these titles were too loud!
They held an inexplicable deterrence!
At this moment, the aura that Qinchuan radiated was arrogant, proud, and unmatched!
Even the Great Elder of the Qin Family, whose cultivation level was higher than Qinchuan's, was deeply wary of him!
