I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"Even if you have a huge reason, you can't act wildly in the Yuan family!"

"The reasons are no longer important; right and wrong will be determined by the strong!"

"The Yuan family will not tolerate being bullied. You injured my elder brother, a crime punishable by death. Release him now, and I can guarantee that I will only kill you, without implicating your family and friends!"

Yuan Zhuan thought Qin Ge was scared, and became even more smug.

"Do you want to drag my family and friends into this?"

"The Yuan family is quite powerful!"

Qin Ge looked at Yuan Zhuan provocatively, then gently lifted his left foot and slowly lowered it.

The cracking sound of bones breaking left everyone speechless and chilled to the bone.

Yuan Bingwen's arm was also broken, the bone shattered into pieces.

"dad!"

"Big brother!"

"ah--"

Halfway through his screams, Yuan Bingwen's head lolled to one side, and he fainted.

He was suffering inside. "You guys were bragging and making threats, so why am I the one who got hurt?"

"You brat..."

Before Yuan Zhuan could even speak, Qin Ge appeared in front of him in a flash, slapping him on the head so hard that his head was buried in his chest cavity, killing him instantly.

"Your Yuan family is truly impressive; I almost thought I had accidentally wandered into the palace of some emperor surnamed Yuan!"

"Especially this Yuan Lao Er, he came in and started yelling and laughing like he was the King of Heaven!"

The entire hall was deathly silent, with only Qin Ge's voice echoing through the space.

Thankfully, Yuan Bingwen was still unconscious; otherwise, seeing this scene would probably have made him faint again.

"Ahhh—" Yuan Mengjie screamed repeatedly, as if she had fallen into an ice cave, a chill running through her entire body, "You, you killed my second uncle!"

"How could you be so cruel, resorting to violence and murder at the slightest disagreement!"

"You...you are the devil!"

"Mr. He, please kill him! For my father's sake, for the revenge of my second uncle!"

He Yongnian's lips twitched. He had been watching Qin Ge ever since he appeared, but he still couldn't figure out Qin Ge's true strength.

When Qin Ge made his move, it wasn't that he didn't want to save Yuan Zhuan, but rather that he simply didn't have time to react!

He still couldn't be sure whether it was because Qin Ge's strength far surpassed his own, causing him to be too fast to react, or if it was just a coincidence.

I don't think I was daydreaming just now.

"Ha, double standard woman!" Qin Ge moved again, grabbing Yuan Mengjie's neck in a flash.

"You didn't say a word when Yuan Lao Er wanted to kill me, and you didn't say a word when he threatened my family and friends."

"After I killed him, you finally spoke up and had the nerve to call me cruel. So only the lives of your Yuan family matter, and everyone else's lives don't?"

"Your Yuan family is used to being superior, and subconsciously you think you're better than everyone else, isn't that right?"

"I just saved your old man from the Yuan family! You went back on your word and broke your promise first, and then Yuan the Second, without asking why or what was right or wrong, insisted on killing me. Is this how you treat your benefactor?"

"You're no better than me, go to hell!"

"Young man!" Just as Qin Ge was about to make a move, Yuan Zheng arrived hurriedly, supported by others.

His face was aged and haggard, yet he retained his authority. "Don't go too far!"

"Young people should know how to be content. Sixty million is already a lot. Why must you covet the Yuan family's heirloom?"

"It escalated to such an unmanageable point that he ultimately lost his life..."

"Click—"

A sharp crack interrupted Yuan Zheng's words. Yuan Mengjie's neck was snapped. Even in death, she couldn't believe that she would die at Qin Ge's hands.

He was clearly her savior, and he even cured her grandfather. It should have been a happy ending for everyone, so why did it turn out like this?

"You, you—" Yuan Zheng pointed at Qin Ge with one trembling hand, his chest heaving violently, and he almost couldn't catch his breath and died on the spot.

Two sons, one crippled and the other dead, and now his granddaughter has died in front of him. Is this all he has to face after recovering from a serious illness?

"What do you mean, 'what the hell'?!" Qin Ge glared angrily. "You old scoundrel, so it really was your idea!"

"Always talking about young people, with such a lecturing tone. What have young people done to you? Did they dig up your Yuan family's ancestral graves?"

"I saved your life, and the first thing you do when you wake up is break your promise!"

"What do I care about your family heirlooms? How important they are to you is your business. Before I treated you, I repeatedly emphasized that I only wanted the black jade!"

"If you can't afford it, don't promise it. And if you promise, don't go back on your word. But you all go back on your word so smoothly. To put it bluntly, you don't take me seriously, that's why you dare to be so unscrupulous!"

"You don't need to blame anyone; this situation is entirely your own doing, you old geezer!"

Yuan Zheng nearly fainted from the choking, his gaze turning icy. "The Shadow Martial Hall is here. Aren't you afraid of being wiped out in Jiangcheng by acting so recklessly?"

"Shadow Martial Hall?" Qin Ge chuckled inwardly. "Your Yuan family seems to have a pretty good relationship with the Shadow Martial Hall!"

"Is this guy surnamed He working for the Shadow Martial Arts Hall, or is he a lackey of your Yuan family?"

He looked at He Yongnian, his pupils narrowing into slits. "Hey, He! Which foot did you step in with when you came in?"

"Left, left foot..." He Yongnian was intimidated by Qin Ge's imposing manner and blurted out almost subconsciously.

It's rare that he remembers it so clearly.

Why not step with your right foot?

Qin Ge's imposing aura was so strong that no one found his words funny; they only felt an endless chill.

The bodyguards who were the first to fall to the ground are still lying there, secretly glad that they didn't get up when Yuan Zhuan appeared, otherwise they might never be able to get up again if they fell down again.

He Yongnian: "..."

"Who told you to step with your left foot first?"

Qin Ge's voice made everyone present tense up; they all had a bad feeling.

The premonition was right. He Yongnian's left leg snapped and bent backward from the knee, a sight that sent chills down one's spine.

He Yongnian gritted his teeth and endured the excruciating pain, his body trembling.

This pain was nothing to him as a martial artist; the reason he trembled was the shock he had suffered.

He now clearly knows that he is absolutely no match for Qin Ge. The difference between him and Qin Ge is not just a tiny bit, but the difference between the light of a firefly and the brilliance of the sun and moon!

But what he didn't understand was that Qin Ge, being a martial artist and a powerful one at that, shouldn't be unaware of the Shadow Martial Hall.

Why does he seem to completely disregard the Shadow Martial Hall?

"Stop!"

"Black jade, here you go."

Yuan Zheng resigned himself to his fate. He had a clear understanding of Qin Ge: powerful, domineering, unpredictable, and most importantly, unreasonable.

Logically speaking, the Yuan family is in the wrong.

Qin Ge could have simply stolen it, but instead, she went through a long and complicated process to cure his illness.

Yuan Zheng felt as if his body had been hollowed out in an instant, powerless and desperate. He was really wrong, because one wrong choice had plunged the Yuan family into an irrecoverable situation.
