Warning! A hidden dragon has emerged!

"It's over! It's completely over!"

The three members of the Lin family were trembling with anger and filled with despair.

"If we don't kill them, there's still room for redemption. But now that Fang Qing is dead, even if Song Yunhui doesn't kill us, Fang Mushou won't let the Lin family off the hook."

"The hatred for killing one's son is irreconcilable. We were killed by this hothead."

Ignoring everyone's reactions, Qin Quan gently wiped away Lin Wanrou's tears, and said in a gentle yet firm voice:

"I've said it before, as long as I'm here, no one can hurt you in the slightest."

"Qin Quan...I..."

Lin Wanrou's voice choked with emotion, all her worries, guilt, and gratitude intertwined, and she didn't know what to say.

"It's confirmed! The man who took Lin Wanrou's innocence is definitely this kid."

"Master Song, look at them, their eyes are practically glued together. Whose boss and bodyguard are acting so intimately?"

"Master, the adulterer who intercepted you must be that bastard."

Fang Mushou, Shen Tianfang, and Yao Guangsheng all pointed at Qin Quan and roared incessantly.

Previously, they only had suspicions, without any evidence.

Now, the feelings in their eyes are obvious.

"I'm not blind, you don't need to say anything!"

Song Yunhui was so angry that his face turned ashen, and it seemed as if a green grassland was floating above his head.

"You're about to die, and you still dare to show off your love in public? Do you really think I, Song Yunhui, am easy to bully?"

"Today, I will show you the consequences of humiliating me, Song Yunhui."

Before he finished speaking, Song Yunhui sprang up and unleashed a thunderous punch.

boom!

The fists flew like cannonballs, surrounded by true energy, with faint thunderous roars, aimed straight for Qin Quan's throat.

The atmosphere in the entire banquet hall was instantly ignited.

The illusory lightning flashed, and the lights flickered on and off. The terrifying power made everyone's scalp tingle, and they retreated one after another, fearing that they might harm the innocent.

In Qin Quan's eyes, this powerful punch was nothing more than a showy but empty gesture.

He didn't even look up; he simply raised his hand slowly and threw a punch.

A fist-shaped shadow formed from spiritual energy rose to the challenge.

"not good!"

An unprecedented sense of impending death instantly enveloped Song Yunhui.

An alarm bell rang in my mind.

He tried to pull back his fist to defend himself, but it was too late.

boom!

Fists flashed and clashed, Qin Quan struck first despite being behind, his momentum unstoppable.

The seemingly light punch landed heavily on Song Yunhui's fist.

Song Yunhui felt his blood surge, and his body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily onto the floor five meters away.

Immediately, a mouthful of blood gushed out, his aura instantly weakened, and he no longer possessed the majesty of a grandmaster.

"You...you're also an eighth-grade Grandmaster?"

Song Yunhui struggled to lift his head, his face filled with disbelief.

How many people in the entire Dragon Kingdom can be a 21-year-old eighth-rank Grandmaster?

"Eighth rank? You say eighth rank, then it's eighth rank."

Qin Quan remained calm and composed.

He is a cultivator, not a martial artist, and there's no point in arguing with a piece of trash.

But his nonchalant demeanor caused everyone in the room to gasp again, and a buzz of discussion instantly erupted.

"Holy crap, a Grandmaster of the Eighth Rank in his early twenties? How is that possible?"

"Could he be a disciple of that reclusive family or sect?"

"Definitely, otherwise who could train a 21-year-old eighth-grade grandmaster?"

"I thought this kid was doomed, but it turns out he was just playing dumb. Song Yunhui has really messed up this time."

"Great! That's wonderful! Xiaorou has really made the Lin family proud!"

Grandpa Lin was overjoyed, and his previous worries vanished in an instant.

Lin Guohua and Lin Yi's eyes lit up with joy, and their hearts, which had been hanging in suspense, were finally at ease.

"As long as Master Qin is willing to come to my Lin family, I can meet any condition."

"My God, an eighth-rank Grandmaster! My sister's man is actually an eighth-rank Grandmaster! Does that mean I'm an eighth-rank Grandmaster's brother-in-law?"

Lin Yi was overjoyed; he had already accepted Qin Quan's identity from the bottom of his heart.

With an eighth-rank grandmaster as his brother-in-law, who dares to mess with him?

Lin Wanrou stood there in a daze, her eyes filled with shock and joy.

She thought Qin Quan was at most a seventh-grade grandmaster, but she never expected that he had already reached the eighth grade!

"Looks like I've really struck gold."

As she gazed at Qin Quan's handsome back, her admiration grew infinitely, and a sweet smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.

All the unease vanished in that moment.

Qin Quan ignored the surprise and commotion around him.

His steps were as steady as mountains, each step causing the ground to tremble slightly, and his powerful aura was directly approaching Song Yunhui.

"You think you can kill me?"

Qin Quan's voice was cold and sharp, each word like ice.

"Fang Qing humiliated me time and again. What wrong did I do by killing him?"

tread!tread!tread!

The footsteps were like a death knell, each step striking Song Yunhui's heart, making his chest feel tight and his heart pound wildly.

Fang Mushou's roar abruptly stopped, and the ferocity on his face was instantly swallowed up by endless fear.

He stared intently at Qin Quan, who was slowly approaching, trembling with fear and his pupils dilating violently.

"No...don't kill me...don't kill me!"

Shen Tianfang was even less able to withstand pressure and had long been terrified by Qin Quan.

With a thud, he knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Master Qin, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong! I really know I was wrong, please just ignore me!"

Old Chen's eyes narrowed suddenly, and taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, he quietly slipped behind the crowd, preparing to make a run for it.

"I told you long ago that this kid was no ordinary person, but you wouldn't listen; now you've kicked a hornet's nest and are reaping the consequences, aren't you? Don't blame me for being ruthless and not playing with you anymore!"

In the blink of an eye, Qin Quan had arrived in front of Song Yunhui.

Song Yunhui staggered to his feet, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and grinned sinisterly:

"Hmph, so what if she's an eighth-rank Grandmaster? Do you think you can protect that little bitch forever?"

"If I were to spread the word, letting those reclusive old monsters know that she's a top-tier cultivation partner, and that you only broke through to the eighth-grade Grandmaster level because of your dual cultivation with her, do you think countless people would scramble to get her?"

Are you threatening me?

Qin Quan's face darkened, and his aura instantly plummeted to freezing point, sending chills down one's spine.

"I am stating the facts."

Song Yunhui wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with malice, believing he had grasped Qin Quan's Achilles' heel.

"If it weren't for the help of a top-tier furnace, could you have broken through to the eighth rank at your age? Hmph!"

Qin Quan felt a chill run down his spine.

This old man actually guessed the cause and effect between him and Lin Wanrou by sheer accident.

That's right, it was Lin Wanrou's pure Yin body that helped him break the seal and break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

This person must not be allowed to live!

Qin Quan leaned down and whispered in Song Yunhui's ear, his voice as cold as a thousand-year-old ice.

"You've learned a secret you shouldn't have known, so you must die."

Song Yunhui was taken aback at first.

Immediately, a glint of "I knew it" flashed in his eyes.

He wasn't sure just now and only wanted to test Qin Quan, but he didn't expect that he was right.

"I'm furious! The furnace I've painstakingly nurtured for three years has been given to you, brat!"

"It's no use being unwilling. I'll send you on your way now."

Qin Quan's eyes hardened, and he raised his hand to chop down on Song Yunhui's head.

"Senior, let's talk this over. Please don't resort to violence."
