God-Slaying Blade

Chapter 10 The Death of Lady Ji

Her snow-white neck fell into Qin Jue's hands, and a look of fear flashed across the beautiful woman's arrogant face.

But soon, she blustered and retorted angrily, "Boy, do you know who I am?! If you dare touch me, you're dead!"

Qin Jue said coldly, "I'm not interested in who you are! I only ask you, have any other members of the Qin family really contacted you in the past few years?"

Baibaolou was the most profitable business of the Qin family back then. If any members of the Qin family are still alive and have returned to Fengzhou City, they would definitely want to take back Baibaolou.

The beautiful woman gritted her teeth and said, "If you want to know, then let me go first!"

Qin Jue forcefully pushed the beautiful woman away. She stumbled and fell onto the threshold, wincing in pain as she groaned.

"explain!"

Qin Jue took a step forward, and the God-Slaying Blade pierced out with a whoosh, heading straight for the beautiful woman's throat!

The beautiful woman's pupils constricted in shock, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "I wasn't lying to you. There were indeed two people claiming to be from the Qin family who came to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion. One was a ninth-rank Martial Realm expert who called himself Qin Ao, and the other was a third-level Grandmaster who called himself Qin Han. But they couldn't even prove their identities, yet they wanted to leave the Hundred Treasures Pavilion. How could I allow that?"

Qin Jue narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he had never heard of the names Qin Ao and Qin Han, he could not rule out the possibility that they were members of the Qin family who had gone out to gain experience in their early years.

"So you killed them?" Qin Jue asked in a cold voice.

The beautiful woman snorted coldly and did not answer.

puff!

Qin Jue didn't hesitate, and the blade swept directly across the beautiful woman's throat!

The beautiful woman clutched her bleeding neck, her pupils widening suddenly.

"He...he actually dared to kill me..." The beautiful woman couldn't believe it even as she died.

Everyone in Fengzhou City knows that she is the most beloved concubine of the second master of the Feng family.

Those guards from the Hundred Treasures Pavilion who had been knocked to the ground by Qin Jue were all terrified at this moment!

Lady Ji is dead, and they are probably not far from their own demise!

"You...you actually killed Madam Ji! Do you know that she was Master Feng's woman!" a guard roared, his face ashen.

Qin Jue frowned slightly.

Master Feng the Second?

The Qin family's Hundred Treasures Pavilion has actually fallen into the hands of the Feng family!

The Feng family is a special entity in Fengzhou City.

The Feng family members do not actually live in Fengzhou City, but rather in Fengxia Manor, which is a hundred miles outside the city.

Fengxia Manor is an entity that even the four most powerful sects in Fengzhou dare not easily provoke.

This is not only because Fengxia Manor itself is very strong, but also because Fengxia Manor has a very powerful backer.

"Go back and tell Second Master Feng that from this day forward, Baibaolou belongs to the Qin family again! The things in Baibaolou now are considered as rent for the years the Feng family has occupied Baibaolou. Now, you can get out." Qin Jue said coldly to the guards of Baibaolou.

Even the Feng family can forget about taking over the Qin family's assets!

As for Lady Ji, let her be killed!

"You dare! You just wait!" the guards roared angrily, and then turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Qin Jue shouted coldly.

The guards froze, cold sweat beading on their foreheads.

Could it be that this person has changed his mind again and wants to kill them all as well?

"Take this woman's body away," Qin Jue said indifferently.

The guards breathed a sigh of relief and two of them quickly came over and lifted Lady Ji's body up.

Neither of them expected that they would have the chance to touch Lady Ji, whom they usually dared not even look at directly...

Qin Jue entered the Treasure Pavilion and took away all the items for sale inside.

He couldn't stay in the Treasure Pavilion forever. To prevent the Feng family from emptying the place, it was safest to put it away.

Baibaolou can only reopen after the trouble with the Feng family is resolved.

Afterwards, Qin Jue continued to patrol the streets and visit the shops, giving instructions to every Qin family shop that had been occupied.

When the Qin family suffered misfortune, it was normal for these assets to be divided up by others, but now that he has returned, these assets should naturally be reclaimed.

If these occupants honestly return the shops, Qin Jue will not make things difficult for them.

If they don't return it, then we'll have to forcefully demand it back.

After returning to the Qin residence, Qin Jue waited for representatives from various families to arrive.

Meanwhile, the various families who received the news gathered together at the Luo family's residence, led by the Luo family.

In Fengzhou City, there are hundreds of families, large and small.

Among them, Xie, Luo, Zhao, Wang, and Han are the five strongest.

Back then, the Qin family's businesses were mainly divided up by these five major families.

The Feng family only took Baibaolou; given the Feng family's resources, they wouldn't even consider the Qin family's other businesses.

Currently, apart from the Xie family, the heads of the other four major families, as well as the heads of two other medium-sized families who participated in dividing up the Qin family's assets, are all in the Luo family's guest hall.

"How do you all plan to respond to Qin Jue's message?" Luo Wang, the head of the Luo family, narrowed his eyes and had a sinister look on his face.

He clearly didn't want to return the Qin family's assets; if he were willing to return them, he wouldn't have gathered the others together.

Wang Sheng, the head of the Wang family, said helplessly, "That Qin Jue is no simple man now. I heard that even Xie Zhen died by his blade. If we don't return the property, he might storm into our Wang family tomorrow. Our Wang family is not as strong as the Qin family, so it seems we have no choice but to return the property."

Luo Wang gave a cold laugh: "I never expected that Brother Wang would be so easily frightened. Are you afraid already?"

Wang Sheng frowned, displeased, and said, "Judging from this, Patriarch Luo doesn't intend to return it? It seems the Luo family has a powerful trump card that none of us know about. In that case, I'll have to wait and see."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Wang Sheng's words.

Luo Wang sneered, "My Luo family alone is certainly no match for Qin Jue. But I, Luo, will not easily submit to the tyranny of a junior. If we were to obediently return those properties, we would lose all face!"

Han Feng, the head of the Han family, stroked his goatee and chuckled, "I wonder what insightful opinion Patriarch Luo has?"

Luo Wang squinted and said, "No matter how strong Qin Jue is, he's just one person! As long as everyone here works together, why should we be afraid of a mere brat? Besides, we don't need to confront him head-on; we just need to stall for time! Have you all forgotten that besides us, he has also offended the Ling Shan Sect and Feng Xia Manor? If we can stall for a few days, this kid will surely die!"

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Yes, Qin Jue killed so many members of the Xie family yesterday, and today he killed Madam Ji. The Lingshan Sect and Fengxia Manor will definitely retaliate!

"But Qin Jue has made it clear that we must deliver the land deed before nightfall today. If we don't do as he says, I'm afraid that, as Patriarch Wang said, he will come to our door with a knife first thing tomorrow morning," said Li Zhaofeng, the head of the Li family, a mid-sized family, with some bitterness.

The four major families present might be able to withstand Qin Jue's onslaught, since each of them has a Grandmaster-level expert in their ranks.

However, the Li family did not even have a Grandmaster-level expert. At this time when Qin Jue was at the height of his killing intent, Li Zhaofeng really did not dare to risk offending Qin Jue.

Industry may be good, but life is more important.

Moreover, if he angers Qin Jue, as the head of the Li family, he will most likely be killed...

Luo Wang glanced at Li Zhaofeng and said calmly, "Your Li family and An family don't need to delay any longer. Send the land deed to Qin Jue later. You need to give him some benefits to keep him in check."

Li Zhaofeng and An Chengrui, the head of the An family, exchanged sinister glances.

It turns out that Luo Wang summoned the two of them not with the intention of forming an alliance, but to make them both sacrifices...
