Chapter 34 - Interrogation

Translator: Zayn_

Two days later.

Discussions were going on in Minghao City.

“Did you hear? Something big happened!!”

“What happened?”

“Two days ago, didn’t Feng Cang, the patriarch of the Feng family, lead the four elders of the Feng family to kill Qin Zi? They… all died!”

“How could it be! Those are five Nirvana stage powerhouses. How could they die just like that? Who could kill them?”

“It’s said that it was Qin Zi!”

“How is this possible? Qin Zi used a secret technique and was only at the Pure Yang stage. How could he kill five Nirvana stage powerhouses?”

“Don’t believe it? I heard that Qin Zi lured Feng Cang and the others to the Black Wind Abyss and used the Black Wind Abyss to kill them.”

“Do you have evidence?”

“Do you still need evidence? Many people saw the process of the chase. Moreover, before Feng Cang died, he angrily shouted Qin Zi’s name. They could hear it from afar.”

“In that case, it really was Qin Zi who killed him? Tsk tsk tsk, it’s really a great feat. It’s enough to make his name shake the entire dynasty.”

“Hehe, it’s indeed a great feat. It’s just a little life-threatening. That Feng family suffered such a great loss. Would they let him off?”

“Yeah, I heard that the Feng family’s old patriarch, Feng Lan, has already reached the ninth level of the Nirvana realm. He’s extremely terrifying. This time, not only will Qin Zi be finished, his father, Qin Chuan, will probably suffer as well.”

“Sigh, what a sin…”

Some people lamented.

Some people gloated.

“Boom–“

Suddenly, a bright golden light tore through the sky and a strong and violent pressure spread out.

“It’s Lord Qin Chuan!”

“He actually returned!”

Everyone was extremely shocked. In their opinion, it took a lot of courage for Qin Chuan to dare return to Minghao City at a time like this.

After all, the Feng family was a colossus, and Nirvana realm experts were also divided into different types.

And the old patriarch of the Feng family, Feng Lan, was undoubtedly the most terrifying type. Not many people could afford to offend him.

Hua!

A figure soared into the sky. It was Bai Chen.

He flew in front of Qin Chuan and lowered his head in shame as he said, “Brother Qin… It’s my fault for being useless and not being able to protect Qin Zi.”

Qin Chuan shook his head and sighed. “It’s not your fault. Instead, you got injured.”

“It’s just a minor injury. It’s not a big deal.”

Bai Chen smiled bitterly and said in a low voice, “I just don’t know how Qin Zi is. Nothing must happen to him.”

“Haha, don’t worry. That kid is very lucky. He won’t die so easily. He probably just doesn’t dare to come back.”

Qin Chuan smiled comfortingly and said, “When the news of me returning to Minghao City spreads, he will naturally come back.”

“Brother Qin, that Feng family… are you really confident?”

Bai Chen asked worriedly.

He had always felt that Qin Chuan had a mysterious aura about him. He was calm and collected, but he didn’t know how strong Qin Chuan was.

“Haha, the Feng family…”

Qin Chuan smiled and shook his head. He said faintly, “Their fate has always been their own choice…”

Bai Chen’s heart trembled.

Suddenly, he felt a chill down his spine.

He took a deep breath and smiled bitterly. “It seems that I was worrying too much. Brother Qin is more unfathomable than I thought.”

Qin Chuan smiled and did not say anything.

…

The next day, early in the morning.

A sneaky figure poked his head out of the gate of the house and peeked a few times, then sneaked in secretly.

“Stop.”

However, he had just taken a few steps on tiptoes when he was stopped. His body stiffened and he turned around awkwardly.

“Dad…”

Looking at the figure in white standing in the garden with his hands behind his back, Qin Zi revealed a bitter smile.

“Are you trying to steal something?”

Qin Chuan asked unhappily.

“Ahem… I heard that you were back, so I came back to investigate. If it were fake, I’d slip away immediately.”

Qin Zi scratched his head.

“Sigh, silly child.”

Qin Chuan sighed helplessly and showed an expression of caring for his ret*rded son. Then he waved his hand and said, “Father is back. It’s okay.”

“Okay!”

Qin Zi nodded his head heavily and instantly became happy. He ran over and hugged Qin Chuan’s arm. He was silent for a moment before he sobbed softly, “Dad, I thought… I would never see you again.”

Qin Chuan’s body trembled slightly.

He took a deep breath, then raised his right hand and touched his son’s head. He forced a smile and said, “How can that be? You are born with great luck. You can turn the situation around at any time.”

“If you really can’t… you still have a father.”

This was the truth.

It couldn’t be denied that he was indeed scamming his son.

However, scamming his son was more of a learning experience.

The difference between experience and disaster was that experience would only cause you temporary pain, while disaster would make you lose something forever!

He didn’t mind making his son’s path of growth more bumpy.

However, if there was a day when his son was facing a life-and-death crisis, and he wanted to protect something but couldn’t do anything, as his cheap father, he would definitely stand up!

“Oh, you broke through to the Pure Yang realm?”

Suddenly, Qin Chuan’s brows rose. He had cultivated the Nirvana Golden Body and had a very strong sense of energy fluctuations.

“Yes, I got a small opportunity in the Black Wind Abyss.”

Qin Zi said with some embarrassment.

He originally wanted to take credit, but he thought that his father might pour cold water on him, so he could only keep a low profile.

“Not bad.”

Qin Chuan patted his shoulder and praised.

Qin Zi’s eyes lit up, and he was suddenly overwhelmed by the favor. His head was dizzy, and his whole body was floating.

“Rumble!”

At this moment, a violent tremor came from the sky. The wind moved the clouds, and it was like a huge sea monster stirring up the wind and waves.

Qin Chuan raised his head to look.

He saw white clouds rolling like smoke in the high sky, and a huge object was slowly revealed.

It was a huge white ship with a majestic aura. On the snow-white sail, there was a pitch-black word “Feng” written on it.

At this moment.

The system’s long-overdue notification arrived.

[ Ding! The ninth level Nirvana realm Feng Lan has a killing intent towards your son. Based on the principle that a father’s love is boundless and a father must win, your cultivation will be raised to the sixth level of the Nirvana realm, and you will be invincible in the same realm.]

[ Ding! Because your cultivation has not been raised to the same level as the enemy, the system has compensated you with a top-tier Holy Spirit Treasure, the Prison Suppressing Cauldron!]

Instantly, Qin Chuan felt that his strength had increased by several levels again, and he almost wanted to roar at the sky.

Not only that.

A huge pitch-black cauldron appeared in his dantian. It had three legs and two ears, and it was engraved with desolate and ancient patterns. It was incomparably majestic.

“Top-tier Holy Spirit Treasure?!”

Qin Chuan’s breathing became a little hurried. That was a treasure that was even more advanced than the Heaven realm. If it were taken out, wouldn’t it be able to crush a Heaven realm expert to death?

Of course, he knew that he couldn’t take it out in public.

An ordinary man was innocent, but possessing a treasure would be a sin.

Once it was leaked out, he would become the target of everyone. Countless old fellows at the Heaven realm or even the Saint realm[1] would kill him to snatch the treasure.

At this moment.

A dignified and cold voice came from the white ship in the sky. “Father and son of the Qin family, come up and receive your death!”

Countless people raised their heads and looked over.

Seven figures appeared at the edge of the white ship, and in the middle was a tall and sturdy green-haired old man.

It was the old patriarch of the Feng family, Feng Lan!

“Oh, what a grand formation of the Feng family. Why did you come to Minghao City today?”

Qin Chuan slowly floated up and flew to the same height as the white ship, asking with a smile.

“You are Qin Chuan?”

Feng Lan asked coldly.

“Yes.”

Qin Chuan smiled and nodded.

“Your son Qin Zi used a trick to kill the Feng family’s patriarch and four elders. He caused a huge disaster. Do you know that?”

Feng Lan questioned aggressively.

“I know.”

Qin Chuan smiled and nodded as if he was saying, ‘I know my son only got second place in the entire class. It’s nothing. He’ll work harder next time.’

“It’s your fault for not teaching your son properly. Since your son is so rebellious, I’m sure you’re not a good father either.”

Feng Lan looked down at Qin Chuan and said coldly, “However, I’m not in the mood to eliminate evil for the people. Today, as long as you execute your little b*stard in front of everyone, I’ll spare your cheap life!”

Hua!

As soon as these words were said, everyone sucked in a cold breath.

So ruthless!

He actually wanted Qin Chuan to execute his own son in front of everyone. This was killing a person’s heart. Putting aside the father-son relationship, if he really did this, would Qin Chuan still be able to raise his head in the future?

“Hehe, the Feng family has such a great official prestige!!”

Qin Chuan’s face revealed an ice-cold mocking expression, “Your Feng family doesn’t have any face. Sending five Nirvana realm experts to chase after a young man who hadn’t even reached the Pure Yang realm was originally bullying the weak.”

“What? Five Nirvana realm powerhouses couldn’t kill a junior, but were killed by a junior instead. The Feng family felt very honorable, so they came to denounce him righteously?”

“My son was bullied like this. You should be glad that I didn’t come to find you. You actually dared to come to find me.”

“I’m very curious… who gave you the courage?!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful aura burst out from Qin Chuan’s body. It was a dazzling golden light, and it was so strong that it reached the heavens!
