Yin Yang Heavenly Emperor Technique

Half an hour later, Shi Ren stood respectfully outside the door, holding a thick account book.

"Patriarch, the Su family's spiritual treasury has been inventoried. Here are the ledgers."

Shi Ren handed the account book to Qin Feng with both hands.

"Well done!"

After reading it, Qin Feng nodded in satisfaction.

The Su family has been entrenched in Tianyang City for many years, owning numerous profitable businesses and accumulating considerable wealth.

And this wealth is enough to allow him to reach a higher level of cultivation!

"This is a reward for you!"

Qin Feng waved his hand, sending out a stream of light that landed in Shi Ren's hand—a cyan sword brimming with spiritual energy.

"This is... a high-grade Yellow Rank spirit sword?"

Shi Ren gasped for breath, unable to believe that Qin Feng's casual gift was such a treasure.

This is much more generous than Su Wushi, that old guy!

"Also, go to the accounting office and withdraw one thousand low-grade spirit stones, then distribute them to the guards below. Tell them that as long as they behave themselves and follow me, their treatment will be doubled."

"Thank you, Master!"

Shi Ren's voice trembled with excitement.

Before he could say anything more, Qin Feng's voice suddenly turned cold, "But if there are still those who are stubborn and secretly loyal to the Su family..."

"I believe you know what to do."

"Rest assured, Master, I understand! Anyone who dares to harbor disloyal thoughts will be the first to be torn to pieces!"

Shi Ren's heart tightened, and his back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.

The new head of the family uses a combination of slapping and sweet treats to manage people; his methods are so shrewd and experienced that he doesn't seem like a young man at all!

"Go down!"

Qin Feng waved his hand and casually tossed a scroll to Shi Ren, saying, "This scroll is called the Heavenly Army Formation Diagram."

"Recently, you should give your guards more training. This will bring about a qualitative leap in your combat strength."

"Yes, sir!"

Shi Ren was startled. The Heavenly Army Formation Diagram—that name sounded incredibly impressive!

If the guards' combat power can be significantly improved, it would be a great opportunity for the entire guard team!

This made him even more grateful for how decisive and wise his surrender had been!

And just as he had expected, this Heavenly Army Formation Diagram was indeed a formation diagram of the upper realm's divine generals arranging their troops!

The true meaning behind it is something that a group of mere Qi Refining Realm guards could never comprehend.

However, Qin Feng didn't expect them to learn much. As long as they could learn even a tiny bit of the basics, it would still be of some use.

"It's time to get down to business!"

After Shi Ren stepped down, Qin Feng flicked his finger, and dozens of jade boxes flew out of his storage bag. When the jade boxes were opened, they revealed fragrant spiritual herbs!

These are all materials collected from the Su family's spiritual treasury for refining the Profound Origin Pill!

The Profound Origin Pill is a top-tier elixir for Foundation Establishment cultivators to enhance their cultivation level. It can stimulate potential and significantly improve the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment cultivators!

However, the drawback is also obvious: each Foundation Establishment cultivator can only take it once! The effect of taking a second one will be greatly reduced!

Without any hesitation, Qin Feng put all the spiritual herbs into the Heaven-Suppressing Cauldron!

……

Tianyang City, City Lord's Mansion.

In a secret room deep within the mansion, the flickering light illuminated two faces, each harboring their own secrets.

One is Xu Ning, the lord of Tianyang City and head of the Xu family. The other is Zhang Tianche, the lord of another major family in Tianyang City, the Zhang family.

Although Qin Feng ordered the news to be blocked, the massacre of the Su family's top brass overnight was a shocking event that could not be kept secret forever, and the two local bullies eventually caught wind of the bloodshed.

"Lord Xu,"

Zhang Tianche held his teacup, a greedy glint in his triangular eyes. His voice was extremely low. "The Su family has dominated Tianyang City for a century, possessing considerable resources. Now, leaderless, they're a real fat sheep..."

Xu Ning stroked the thumb ring on his thumb. Although tempted, he remained cautious: "He is indeed a fat sheep. But that son-in-law named Qin Feng was able to kill Su Wushi and the three elders of the Su family in one night. His strength should not be underestimated."

Su Wushi is at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, and Su Tianxiong is at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment. Even Xu Ning himself would have to put in a lot of effort with such a lineup.

"Heh," Zhang Tianche scoffed disdainfully, "Lord Xu, do you really believe that a mere son-in-law could possess such extraordinary abilities?"

"In my opinion, they most likely used some underhanded and shady methods. For example, poisoning, or ambushing Su Wushi and the others when they were relaxed after returning from the capital!"

Zhang Tianche's words were like a key, unlocking the lock of greed in Xu Ning's heart.

Yes, how could a mere son-in-law who's been manipulated possibly overthrow the entire Su family? How could he possibly kill a powerful figure like Su Wushi from Tianyang City?

It was either poisoning or a sneak attack; it couldn't possibly be based on skill!

"If we don't take this piece of meat, do you think those covetous forces outside Tianyang City will let it go?"

Zhang Tianche emphasized, "Instead of letting outsiders benefit, why don't our two families join forces and divide it up! The Su family's markets, mines, and medicinal gardens... your Xu family takes 60%, and my Zhang family only needs 40%, how about it?"

The last trace of hesitation in Xu Ning's eyes finally disappeared completely.

"Master!"

Just then, an elder of the Zhang family hurriedly knocked on the door and whispered a few words in Zhang Tianche's ear.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianche's face lit up with ecstatic joy, and he slapped his thigh. "Brother Xu, my guess was absolutely right!"

"That brat Qin Feng has been frantically selling off the Su family's assets these past few days, even listing spiritual weapons and cultivation techniques at Wanbaolou! This is clearly a sign of a guilty conscience, preparing to abscond with the money!"

"What?!" Xu Ning suddenly stood up.

Is this still available?

If that kid really runs away with the Su family's century-old savings, all their scheming here will have been for nothing.

"We can't wait any longer!" Xu Ning's eyes flashed with murderous intent. "Patriarch Zhang, go back immediately and gather your troops!"

"We'll make our move tonight!"

Does a mere upstart who rose to power through scheming and trickery deserve the vast fortune of the Su family?

He wanted to see what this little son-in-law of the Su family was capable of, that he could withstand the thunderous alliance of the Xu and Su families.

Dark as ink.

A cold wind howled, blowing across the Su family mansion, stirring up a few fallen leaves on the ground, adding a touch of desolation.

The courtyard, bathed in blood, is now completely silent.

Inside the room, Qin Feng sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. In front of him, within the Heaven-Suppressing Cauldron, floated a bronze-colored pill with five pill patterns.

Perfect Profound Essence Pill.

You're done!

In his previous life, as the supreme master of alchemy, refining such a mere second-grade pill was undoubtedly a piece of cake for Qin Feng!

"Um?"

Suddenly, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and his eyes snapped open.

A glint of cold light, almost tangible, shot out from his deep pupils, piercing through the night.

In his divine sense, two groups of people, totaling more than a hundred auras, were silently closing in on the Su family mansion from two directions, like two sharp knives.

The two leading auras were at the seventh and sixth levels of Foundation Establishment, respectively.

"So it was those two old thieves from the Xu and Zhang families who came after smelling the scent."
