Chapter Thirty-Two: Catching Them All in One Sweep
Laughter echoed in the night sky, lingering for a long time, suffused with an air of defiance and unruliness.
Qin Feiyang lowered his head, surveying each face as if determined to imprint every visage deeply upon his memory. At last, his gaze settled upon the three: the Third Hall Master, the Martial Hall Master, and Luo Qianxue. He spoke, “Sooner or later, you will know who the true villain is.”
“Roar!”
With those words, he bent low, crouching like a wild beast upon the ground. Then, opening his mouth, he unleashed a thunderous lion’s roar!
A terrifying wave of sound swept across the area like a raging tide. A shocking scene unfolded: all but Luo Qianxue and the other two spewed blood from their ears! Their minds thundered—this was no ordinary lion’s roar.
It was a martial skill—Frenzied Lion’s Roar, and a perfect one at that!
A shrill scream suddenly rang out. A one-star martial master of the Lin family clutched his head, features twisted in agony, howling desperately, blood gushing from his ears like fountains.
Witnessing this, the trio were utterly incredulous.
A murderous martial skill, an auxiliary martial skill, and a sonic martial skill—this fellow possessed not only three skills, but all were perfect techniques! He was practically a little monster!
The Third Hall Master shouted, “Stop him quickly, or everyone here will be shaken to death by his sound waves!”
The Martial Hall Master and Luo Qianxue snapped back to their senses and rushed toward Qin Feiyang.
But at that very moment, howls of wolves sounded from behind!
The three looked back, their expressions shifting. In the darkness, pairs of emerald eyes gleamed with savage ferocity—a pack of white wolves was rapidly approaching.
“White-Eyed Wolf!”
Qin Feiyang’s eyes grew hot. He hadn’t expected that, at this critical moment, this creature would come to his rescue. It was a golden opportunity!
He ceased his roar and swooped forward, darting before a young girl. His hand lashed out like an eagle’s claw, seizing her delicate neck.
Luo Qianxue’s expression changed. She barked, “Qin Feiyang, let her go!”
Qin Feiyang shifted, retreating behind the girl. The sharp blade of Cangxue was pressed against her throat as he faced Luo Qianxue, sneering, “If you want her to live, step back immediately!”
“You dare!”
Luo Qianxue was furious.
Qin Feiyang licked his lips, chuckling. “I killed Lin Baili, so what’s one more? Don’t test my patience!”
“Qingzhu, don’t be afraid. With your mother here, Qin Feiyang wouldn’t dare harm you.” Luo Qianxue gazed dotingly at the girl, comforting her, then barked at the others, “Back off!”
The Third Hall Master and Martial Hall Master exchanged helpless glances and retreated three meters.
But the Lin family leader and his group, their ears deafened, hadn’t heard Luo Qianxue’s words. Still, seeing the situation, they understood what had happened.
Liu Yun, Yin Chuan, the Zhao family leader, and the girl beside him all moved swiftly to join Luo Qianxue’s group.
Yet the Lin family members did not retreat; led by Lin Yong, they advanced toward Qin Feiyang!
The Lin family leader stood his ground, supporting Lin Baili, both their eyes filled with venomous hatred—especially Lin Baili, who wished to grind Qin Feiyang’s bones to dust.
At this moment, the Wolf King and his pack gathered behind Qin Feiyang, their eyes gleaming fiercely as they fixed their gaze on Lin Baili and his kin.
Qin Feiyang grinned. “White-Eyed Wolf, I never thought you’d be so loyal. But this time, your choice is unwise—they’re not people you can afford to provoke.”
The Wolf King growled softly, a hint of disdain flickering in his massive pupils.
“You really are bold, but honestly, thank you.” Qin Feiyang was deeply moved, tears streaming down his face.
The Wolf King rolled his eyes and growled again, as if reminding him that powerful foes remained, and now was not the time for foolishness.
“Don’t worry. As long as this woman is in our hands, they won’t dare make a move.” Qin Feiyang smiled confidently, turning to Luo Qianxue. “Hall Master, am I right?”
As he spoke, his arm trembled slightly, and the sharp Cangxue blade drew a thin line of blood across the girl's neck.
“Qin Feiyang, what are you doing?” Luo Qianxue cried out in shock and fury.
Qin Feiyang replied with a breezy smile, “Don’t be nervous, it was just an accidental slip of the hand.”
But as he finished, his expression suddenly chilled, his voice icy. “If they don’t retreat, it won’t be so simple as a slip.”
“You’d best not harm her again!” Luo Qianxue shot Qin Feiyang a cold look, strode over to Lin Baili and the Lin family leader, grabbed their collars, and flung them backward like tossing out the trash.
“Ah!” The two cried out, landing wretchedly three yards away.
“What a formidable woman,” Qin Feiyang muttered.
Luo Qianxue then walked toward Lin Yong and the others.
Qin Feiyang’s eyes flashed coldly. “Wait!”
“What do you want now?” Luo Qianxue’s brows furrowed, clearly growing impatient.
“I’ve changed my mind. I want to see if I can kill them all!”
Qin Feiyang wrapped his arm around the girl’s waist, using the Luo Smoke Step, charging at Lin Yong like a human velociraptor.
“Kill him!” Lin Yong roared, pulling a pitch-black broadsword from his spatial pouch and slashing at Qin Feiyang.
Luo Qianxue’s heart nearly leaped from her chest, terrified the girl might be harmed.
“You’d best not move, or your daughter will die even faster!” Qin Feiyang glanced coldly at Luo Qianxue, and with a sweep of Cangxue, blocked the broadsword. The blade crashed down, ringing with a piercing metallic clang!
But amidst the sparks, the seemingly razor-sharp broadsword snapped in two!
“How can this be!” Lin Yong was astounded.
Luo Qianxue was also dumbfounded.
What material was that dagger made of, to be so keen?
Just as Lin Yong was stunned, Qin Feiyang struck with blinding speed, plunging the blade into his heart. Lin Yong let out a dying scream, eyes wide with terror, and collapsed lifeless.
“It truly cuts through iron like mud!” Qin Feiyang was exhilarated.
Without hesitation, he charged at the remaining Lin family members.
All the one-star martial masters of the Lin family were present tonight. This time, he would sweep them all away!
Clang!
The martial masters drew their weapons, attacking Qin Feiyang with murderous intent.
For a moment, weapons clanged and flashed everywhere, true energy surged like dragons, sweeping across the field.
Although the Lin family’s martial masters held a numerical advantage, Qin Feiyang completely overwhelmed them with his weapon and skills, crushing their resistance!
Weapon after weapon was shattered by Cangxue.
Qin Feiyang, using Luo Smoke Step, moved like a death god, harvesting lives without pause.
Blood splattered his body and face.
His murderous aura soared skyward!
Luo Qianxue and the others watched, their hearts trembling.
Was he truly still a youth?
His meticulous mind and ruthless methods far surpassed his peers—even compared to themselves, they felt inferior.
Cold and merciless!
What manner of person was this Qin Feiyang?
The Lin family leader and Lin Baili were in utter disbelief.
So many one-star martial masters, yet none could best Qin Feiyang alone?
Gradually, a sense of panic welled within them.
The iron-blooded ruthlessness Qin Feiyang displayed terrified them—even their bodies began to tremble.
Yet, despite the bloodshed, the girl in Qin Feiyang’s arms showed not a hint of panic, remaining remarkably calm. She even regarded Qin Feiyang with curiosity.
A hundred breaths passed.
All the Lin family’s martial masters, along with several servants, lay dead in pools of blood.
The stench of blood permeated the void.
They had long since been terrified, but Qin Feiyang’s Luo Smoke Step was four times faster than theirs—escape was impossible.
Whoosh!
As the battle ended, Qin Feiyang quickly retreated to the Wolf King’s side, exhaling a long breath.
To outsiders, this fight seemed easy and simple, but only he knew how perilous it was!
If he could fight freely, he was confident he could kill everyone unscathed.
But he had to protect the girl.
She was his only bargaining chip—no accidents could be allowed.
The Lin family, driven by terror and desperation for survival, cared nothing for the girl’s safety.
Several times, she nearly died.
Qin Feiyang shielded her with his body, ensuring her safety.
As a result, his back and right shoulder bore several deep, bone-revealing wounds, blood pouring relentlessly.
“What a terrifying youth!” The Third Hall Master and Martial Hall Master exchanged glances, a trace of fear flickering in their eyes.
If he didn’t die young, whether good or evil, he would surely achieve greatness!
Luo Qianxue also breathed a sigh of relief.
Throughout the slaughter, her heart had been suspended, fearing her daughter might be harmed.
Fortunately, her worries did not come to pass.
She looked at Qin Feiyang. “You protected my daughter, proving you understand your situation very well. Release her now, and I’ll let bygones be bygones.”
Qin Feiyang chuckled. “Do you take me for a three-year-old?”
A layer of frost covered Luo Qianxue’s face. “What more do you want?”
Qin Feiyang replied, “Stay right here. Once I confirm my safety, I’ll naturally release your daughter. You have no other choice.”
“Fine!” Luo Qianxue nodded.
Still uneasy, she warned, “Qin Feiyang, don’t say I didn’t warn you. My Treasure Pavilion has roots in every corner of Yan Prefecture—even the royal family won’t lightly offend us. You’d best not harm Qingzhu, or even if you flee to the ends of the earth, I will hunt you down!”
“No need to remind me,” Qin Feiyang replied coolly. He turned to the Wolf King with a smile. “Let’s go!”
The Wolf King growled, then led his pack, racing toward the exit.
Qin Feiyang struck the girl unconscious with a palm, carried her in his arms, and without looking back, called out, “Lin family leader, don’t think that climbing into the Yan City Lord’s household will bring you glory. Take my advice—stay low, or in the end, all your efforts will come to nothing.”
“And Lin Baili, if you call yourself a genius, then I’d say Yan City isn’t much. Hurry back to Yan City—maybe your severed arm can still be reattached.”
With those words, he strode away, vanishing swiftly into the night.
In truth, he longed to kill Lin Baili, but he knew the three would not allow it for the sake of the greater good.
