Chapter 722 Leave Your Body Intact

Facing the barrage of questions, Chu Xuanming and his son had nothing to say. What they had been thinking about before was how much benefits they would get after they succeeded and never considered the possibility of failure.

Qin Haodong said in a cold voice, “People like you don’t deserve to live in this world at all. But since you are from the Chu family, I will leave your bodies intact.”

Seeing that Qin Haodong wanted to kill them, Chu Xuanming and his son knew that they could not stop him. They jumped up from the ground and were about to escape, but after taking two steps, two gusts of wind were shot into their backs.

“Plop… plop…”

Chu Xuanming and Chu Mingcong fell to the ground beside Chiba Mieko’s body. There was no breath left in either of them.

Seeing the two core disciples of the Chu family being killed, all the others were shocked. But under such circumstances, no one dared to make a sound. The big hall was so quiet that they could hear each other’s breath.

Everyone knew that the matter did not seem to be over. It was likely that the Chu family would not be able to escape this time.

As expected, Qin Haodong slowly came to his senses. He said to Chu Shanhe, who was standing next to him, “At first, my mother and I came back to celebrate your birthday, but what did the Chu family do? They deliberately tried to set us up. As the master of the family, you can’t be forgiven.”

Chu Shanhe did not care about the pain of losing his son. He quickly said, “These were all done by my unfilial son behind my back. I don’t know anything about it.”

“Of course I know that. If you’re involved, you would not have the chance to talk to me anymore.”

Qin Haodong stood up, exuding a strong momentum that suppressed all the people present. He said lightly, “I could have destroyed your family from the capital based on what the Chu family has done to me, but I will give you a chance for my mother’s sake.

“Abdicate and give up the position of the master of the family to my uncle and then leave the capital. I will let the Chu family go this time.”

Feeling his powerful momentum, all the members of the Chu family kept silent. When they heard that he only asked Chu Shanhe to abdicate, these people immediately breathed a collective sigh of relief. Compared with the destruction of the Chu family, this was the best choice.

As for the masters of the other six great families, although they looked very calm, they felt extremely restless in their hearts. Except for Qin Haodong, no one could force a master from a great family to abdicate.

Although he knew that this was already the lightest punishment, Chu Shanhe still said unwillingly, “Haodong, my position will be passed to Xuanli sooner or later, but now he is still a little young.”

“If I retire from the position of the master of the family, I am afraid that he will not be able to control the other family members. What do you think? If we can delay it for a few years, I will automatically give the position to Chu Xuanli in ten years.”

Qin Haodong turned to look at the Chu family and asked, “My uncle will serve as the master of the Chu family. Are you all in agreement?”

His voice was not loud, but it was full of majesty.

“I support Chu Xuanli to be the master of the Chu family!”

The first one to speak was the First Elder, Chu Shanchuan.

Second Elder, Chu Shanhai, also shouted, “I support Chu Xuanli to be the master of the Chu family.”

These two people were the most prestigious elders of the Chu family. After they spoke, the other members of the Chu family also echoed, “We support Chu Xuanli as the family master!”

“I don’t have any objections. Chu Xuanli is the most suitable person to be the master of the family.”

These people had seen it clearly. The vicious old woman, Jin Xiuying, had completely offended Chu Xuanyue and her son. In addition, Chu Xuanming had just done many disdainful things. If Chun Shanhe did not let Chu Xuanli be the master of the family, the Chu family would be doomed.

Moreover, they also knew that Chu Xuanli had the closest relationship with Qin Haodong. He was the only one in the Chu family who was recognized by Qin Haodong. Once Chu Xuanli became the master of the family, the Chu family would definitely get the full support of the Tang Sect. It would be difficult for them not to be powerful in the future.

As long as the Chu family’s power increased, their interests would naturally be guaranteed. The children of these great families had always taken their benefits as the most important factor. As long as they could guarantee their own interests, it did not matter who would be the family master.

Moreover, Chu Xuanli was already a level-nine supreme power master. As the master of the family, he could immediately strengthen the Chu family and no one could find any reason to oppose him.

Therefore, under Qin Haodong’s interrogation, all the members of the Chu family present stood out to support Chu Xuanli as the master of the family. It was evident that the general family members were in favor of him.

Looking at these people in front of him, Chu Shanhe’s face turned pale. He knew that his position as the master of the family was really coming to an end. He could only say helplessly, “Well, from today onward, I will retire from the position. I will leave the capital in a few days.”

At this moment, his heart was full of remorse. If he had regarded Qin Haodong as his own grandson from the beginning, if he could move Chu Xuanyue with family love this time, it might not have ended this way.

But there was no chance for regret in this world. He could only think about it in his heart.

Chu Xuanli had not yet recovered from the shock. Recently, things had changed too fast. Not only had he jumped from an ordinary level-six supreme power master to a level-nine supreme power master, but he had also become the master of the Chu family. He could not accept it for a while.

Since the matter of the Chu family had been completely resolved, Qin Haodong did not want to stay any longer. He left the Chu family with a group of people and returned to the Tang Sect.

After seeing them leave, Chu Shanhe sighed, walked up to Jin Xiuying and lifted his hand to release her acupuncture points.

“Son… Grandson…”

As soon as she regained her mobility, Jin Xiuying stumbled toward Chu Xuanming’s and Chu Mingcong’s bodies, holding them in her arms and crying.

After a while, she raised her head again, stared at Chu Shanhe with blood-red eyes and scolded, “Are you still a man or not? How dare you watch that bastard kill your son and grandson!”

Chu Shanhe was holding back his anger and had nowhere to vent it. How could he tolerate Jin Xiuying’s temper? He immediately shouted angrily, “Enough. If it weren’t for you, the Chu family’s affairs would not have ended up like this!”

Jin Xiuying was stunned at first and then she shouted crazily again, “I don’t care. I only know that bastard has killed my son and grandson. I want him to pay with his life. I will call the police. I want him to die!”

She had just taken out her mobile phone, but it was smashed into pieces by Chu Shanhe’s blow.

“Have you had enough? They communicated with that Nihon woman and tried to kill a member of the Xuanyuan Pavilion. What’s the use of calling the police? Do you want to anger Qin Haodong again?”

Jin Xiuying yelled, “Could it be that my son and grandson died in vain?”

“So what? Do you want the entire Chu family to die with us?”

The one who spoke was Chu Shanhe, the First Elder. He said with a gloomy face, “If it were not for you, who valued males more than females and spoiled Chu Xuanming, how could he have made such a big mistake?”

“If you had been kinder to your own daughter, how can our Chu family be so passive? You are the main culprit!”

“I…”

Jin Xiuying still wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

Chu Xuanli hurried over to help her up, only to find that the old lady was no longer breathing.

This vicious old woman, who had been so overbearing for a lifetime, finally died due to extreme anger. She seemed to have brought this upon herself.

Looking at the four bodies on the ground, Chu Shanhe sighed and said to Chu Xuanli, “No matter what, death is still a big deal. After all, they are from our Chu family. Bury them!”

Chu Xuanli nodded, called a few families to carry the four bodies away and began to prepare for the funeral.

Qin Haodong returned to the Tang Sect and took Xuanyuan Lige to the reception room.

“Sacred master, are you all right after imbibing the poison?”

At this moment, there was no one beside him. Xuanyuan Lige immediately addressed him respectfully.

“I’m fine. This little poison is nothing to me.” Qin Haodong waved his hand and said to her, “You came to me not only because of Chu Xuanming, right?”

Xuanyuan Lige said with a happy face, “Of course not. I’m here to tell you good news.

“After taking your pills, the overall cultivation of the Cihang Sword House has rapidly improved. I have upgraded from the early stage of the Saint Realm to the middle stage of the Saint Realm. Besides, six level-nine supreme power masters broke through to the Saint Realm and 10 of the other disciples broke through to the ninth level of the Supreme Power Realm.”

“It can be said that the strength of the Cihang Sword House is unprecedentedly strong now. Even if the Dark Sect goes back on their word, we can still destroy them easily.”

The more she spoke, the more excited she became. Since she found Qin Haodong, the Cihang Sword House was no longer the same as it used to be. The number of masters was now several times more than that of the Dark Sect. It could be said that there were as many masters as clouds and their strength was unprecedented.

Hearing this news, Qin Haodong nodded with satisfaction. These pills refined with 5,000 years of medicinal materials were really powerful. The stronger the Cihang Sword House was, the more confident they would be when they fought against the Alien Demons in the future.

He said, “We don’t know how strong the Alien Demons are yet, but they were able to fight against the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan and Chiyou, so they must be powerful. We have to make full use of this opportunity to improve our strength.”

“Wait here for a while. I’ll refine some pills and you can take them away.”

After that, he left Xuanyuan Lige here and took the little fellow into the alchemy room.

Now, Tang Tang’s Phoenix Flame had been greatly improved and was close to the Samadhi Real Fire. Her cultivation had also been upgraded to the Early-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. With the combination, their speed was several times faster than before and the quality of the pills were constantly improving.

Near evening, Qin Haodong and the little fellow came out of the alchemy room. His Storage Ring was filled with all kinds of pills.

Xuanyuan Lige took the pills, thanked Qin Haodong and quietly left the Tang Sect.

Qin Haodong called Ma Wenzhuo and gave him the newly refined pills. He asked him to send them to the people of the Tang Sect. Now that all the major forces in the capital had calmed down, what he needed to do was to quietly improve his strength and wait for the Alien Demon’s appearance and give them a fatal blow.

After sending Xuanyuan Lige away and having dinner, Qin Haodong brought Zhao Qingwu into the Tang Sect. That night, Han Jieyu and Zhao Qingwu also jumped to the level nine of Supreme Power Realm.

However, they and Wei Yanran were just ordinary people before, so they did not know much about martial arts. It would take some time for them to improve their strength. When their cultivation were completely stabilized, they would go back to take over the position of the master of the family and completely rule over their families.

With the current deterrence of the Tang Sect, it was believed that the other great families would not dare to oppose it.

Early the next morning, Qin Haodong had just finished breakfast when his cell phone suddenly rang.

He picked it up and looked at it. It was a call from Hua Mingrui. After pressing the answer button, he heard her voice saying anxiously, “Haodong, where are you now?”

Hua Mingrui was a quiet person and her speech and demeanor were usually very calm. Something eventful must have happened to make her so anxious.

Qin Haodong asked, “I’m at home. What’s the matter?”

“Then can you come to my teahouse? I have something important to talk to you about.”

“Okay, wait for me. I’ll be right there.”

Now that they were friends, Qin Haodong naturally could not refuse her request. He hung up, informed his family and drove to Hua Mingrui’s Teahouse.

When he entered the room, he saw that Hua Mingrui was not reading her books and sipping tea as she usually did. Instead, she sat there with a worried look on her face.

He asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
