High above all, he didn't even regard Qin Heng as a human being. The middle-aged man's gaze was full of extreme contempt, not taking Qin Heng seriously at all. In his view, Qin Heng was just an insignificant little ant, one he could crush effortlessly.

"No!" Jiang Luwei stood in front of Qin Heng and pleaded with the middle-aged man, "Second Uncle, I beg you, please don't kill him. He really hasn't done anything!"

"What he has done is not important," the middle-aged man shook his head. He glanced at Qin Heng with extreme disdain, as if looking at an ant, and said indifferently, "As long as he stayed in a room with you, that is a capital offense. Besides, I won't kill him. What qualification does such trash have for me to act? I'm telling him to take his own life."

"Commit suicide! Trash! You piece of trash, daring to defile the Third Miss! It's a capital offense!"

"That's right! A capital offense! Commit suicide! You piece of trash, you don't even deserve to catch a glimpse of the Third Miss!"

Several brawny youths dressed in black also began to shout, their faces filled with murderous intent, wishing they could kill Qin Heng right then and there.

"Hahaha!" Qin Heng suddenly laughed. Looking at these people as if they were a group of lunatics, he said, "The Jiangs of Sichuan and Shu, have you grown tired of living, to be so arrogant in front of me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the air in the spacious room abruptly solidified, becoming incredibly silent. Everyone, including Jiang Luwei, looked at Qin Heng in disbelief.

"What are you talking about?!" Jiang Luwei was extremely anxious, whispering, "Now is not the time for you to act tough. My Second Uncle is a peak Martial Artist of the Hidden Force, who participated in the Southern Yue War and killed countless people with his bare hands. If you keep this up, he will really kill you!" She was almost crying. Seeking mercy was already incredibly difficult, but Qin Heng had unexpectedly chosen this moment to utter such words—it was like a lit fuse on a powder keg, capable of completely infuriating the Jiang family!

"Boy, I, Jiang Qinhu, have never seen someone as audacious as you!" The middle-aged man's face turned ashen, his gaze becoming incredibly cold as he looked at Qin Heng. "I gave you the chance to take your own life just now, and you did not. Now, you've lost even that opportunity!"

"Die!" Jiang Qinhu raised his palm, aiming to strike Qin Heng's head like a fierce tiger descending a mountain.

"Insignificant bug!" Qin Heng sneered and suddenly exhaled a breath.

WHOOSH!

The air around him surged violently, starting to twirl like a tornado that appeared out of nowhere!

BOOM!

The floor exploded and walls shattered, revealing the steel-reinforced concrete within!

Jiang Qinhu and those behind him felt a buzzing in their heads. Their bodies throbbed with extreme pain, as if struck by a speeding train, and they were sent flying backward!

BANG, BANG, BANG!!

They crashed against the corridor wall, their bones fractured, writhing in unbearable pain as they slumped to the ground, screaming, their faces contorted.

Jiang Luwei was dumbfounded, looking at Qin Heng with disbelief and utter shock. Her eyes widened as she asked with a trembling voice, "You, what is this... What happened??"

Her Second Uncle, Jiang Qinhu, had trained in martial arts for over thirty years and had reached the pinnacle of Hidden Force; he could easily take down a hundred men by himself! He was extremely powerful! Yet now, he was actually blown away by a single breath from Qin Heng!? What just happened?

"Grandmaster? No, this is impossible!" Jiang Qinhu, collapsed on the ground, also looked at Qin Heng in disbelief, murmuring, "Half-Step Transcendence... Half-step Grandmaster!? Are you really a Half-step Grandmaster?" He cried out, his voice rising sharply, shocked to the extreme. So young and already at Half-Step Transcendence! He had never even imagined such a thing!

Struggling to stand up, Jiang Qinhu looked at Qin Heng and said, "I didn't expect you to be a Half-step Grandmaster. Well, with such a status, you are indeed barely worthy of my niece Luwei." Then, with a scrutinizing look, he continued, "However, Luwei is already engaged to a nobleman from the English royal family. As long as you can take care of that, and also provide three hundred million as a dowry, our Jiang family might consider letting Luwei marry you."

In Jiang Qinhu's mind, Qin Heng must be Jiang Luwei's secret boyfriend! To be a Half-Step Transcendence at such a young age made him a true prodigy! It wasn't surprising that Jiang Luwei, who had been pampered since childhood and had extremely high standards, would fall for him. At the same time, Jiang Qinhu felt relieved. Qin Heng definitely wouldn't kill him; after all, he was Jiang Luwei's second uncle, her father's younger brother! Since Qin Heng was Jiang Luwei's boyfriend, he would have to be extremely respectful towards her family and wouldn't dare offend them! Otherwise, a single word from Jiang Luwei's father could plunge Qin Heng into utter despair, destroying any chance of him being with Jiang Luwei!

Therefore, Jiang Qinhu once again adopted a superior stance, looking down at Qin Heng with a condescending attitude. "You are indeed a martial arts genius," he said, "but your temperament is too violent. Resorting to fists over a single disagreement is very bad. You need to change this." He even began to lecture Qin Heng.

Qin Heng was momentarily speechless. He slowly walked up to Jiang Qinhu, extended a finger, pointed at his head, and sneered, "Did you hit your head when you fell just now?"

"What do you mean by this!?" Jiang Qinhu immediately became furious upon hearing this, glaring at Qin Heng. "How rude! Aren't you afraid I'll tell Luwei's father and have him cut off all ties between you two?"

"That's right!" one of the others shouted. "Since you're Luwei's boyfriend, you should address Second Master Jiang as 'Second Uncle'! What kind of attitude is this? So disrespectful!"

"Right, and us too! We're Luwei's relatives; you should also call us brothers a few times!" the others chimed in.

These people all believed Qin Heng wouldn't dare act against them because of Jiang Luwei. The earlier conflict, they reasoned, had only occurred because no one understood the situation.

"It's rare for someone as young as you to be at Half-Step Transcendence," Jiang Qinhu said, assuming an air of granting a huge favor. "As long as you can do what I just mentioned, I can put in a good word for you with Luwei's father and help you two get together. By the way, what is your name? I, your Second Uncle, don't even know your name yet." He had even begun to address himself as 'Second Uncle'.

"My name?" Qin Heng's eyes narrowed slightly. He suddenly raised his hand and grabbed Jiang Qinhu's neck, scoffing, "Were you all dreaming just now? Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?"

"You wouldn't dare! Would you dare kill me in front of Luwei!?" Jiang Qinhu glared at Qin Heng, bellowing, "Let go of me immediately, or you and Luwei will never..."

CRACK!

The sound of bones breaking echoed as Jiang Qinhu's head tilted to one side, his neck snapped by Qin Heng.

He was dead.
