In the east of the city, there is the Qin family villa.
Bang!
A teacup was smashed to the ground and shattered into pieces. The boiling hot tea emitted a wisp of steam, just like Qin Yun's mood at the moment.
"How is it possible! How is it possible!" Qin Yun held the porcelain pieces with both hands, bleeding. "That bitch... actually did it? She... She actually dared..."
Qin Jiaojiao was also in disbelief, and asked the servant who came to report again: "Did Mu Liuling really reverse the situation just by being open and honest and calculating a few accounts?"
"Reporting to the young lady... This, this is true, Mr. Yi has already sent people here, and also sent a lot of rare treasures to apologize..."
"Who wants his treasures!" Qin Yun overturned a table and roared, "I want that wasteland! Wasteland! Without wasteland, how can I refine weapons, how can I improve, how can I attract people's attention? Without wasteland, my inheritance cannot be used, I cannot exert my strength, and I have no strength! How can I shock the heroes at the Autumn Night Banquet? When the time comes, how can I shock the whole audience at the family competition!"
Qin Yun's eyes turned red: "Yi Xuan! It's all your fault! You are so brave! When I, Qin Yun, soar into the sky, I swear to..."
"Kill his entire family?" When Qin Yun was hysterical, Qin Jiaojiao finally couldn't stand it anymore. She snorted coldly and waved her hand, signaling the servant to leave first. Then she stood in front of Qin Yun and said, "Yun'er, you keep saying the same thing over and over again, 'Kill your entire family'. Don't you feel tired of saying it too much?"
Qin Yun choked when he heard this, and paused, his face flushed with shame and anger: "Sister! What do you mean by that! That Yi Xuan is blocking my path to my true destiny, shouldn't I kill his entire family?"
Qin Jiaojiao looked at Qin Yun without saying anything, her mind was full of thoughts - although she didn't have good intentions towards Qin Yun when she first came to the Qin family, after spending some time with him, the stubborn, tenacious, and strong boy still left a place in her heart with his strength and outstanding performance...
It's a pity that he is now... making Qin Jiaojiao more and more disappointed.
Just because someone blocked his way, he would kill everyone in the family. Just because he was wronged, he would shout all day about how he would take revenge after he soared to the sky...
He is now... just a person with a glass heart who is so extreme that he will kill your whole family if he is not happy with you.
When did this start? Perhaps the seeds of negativity had already been planted, and the person who came to cancel the engagement was just a fuse...
Qin Jiaojiao sighed inwardly. If Qin Yun had been humiliated like this in the past, Qin Jiaojiao would have been the first to not be able to bear it, not to mention his own reaction. She might even have attempted an assassination at night out of impulse. But now...
Well, let’s take another look.
"Sister, why are you silent?" Qin Yun gradually calmed down after a moment of hysteria and asked with some confusion.
Qin Jiaojiao shook her head, calmed down, and said: "Yun'er, no matter how excited you are, the fact is already like this. Getting angry is useless. This piece of wasteland is lost, but the matter is not over. I heard you say that regarding your inheritance, a smaller piece of wasteland can actually be used..."
"But the effect will be greatly reduced!" Qin Yun said bitterly, "I have a destiny. I have no shortage of opportunities to soar to the sky, but I only lack time to do so! If I continue to be discounted like this, the Mingyuan realm is still okay, but what about the Tongxuan realm and even the Qihun realm? When will I be able to reach the level of the top masters of the Great Zhou? When will I be able to kill all those who have offended me? Sister, the more talented you are, the less time you can afford!"
Qin Jiaojiao fell silent after hearing this. Indeed, after Qin Yun's talent was restored, it was almost certain that he would soar to the sky. During this period, he might have provoked many powerful enemies. Naturally, the shorter the time to become stronger, the better... If she were in his shoes, she would definitely be extremely unhappy if she was repeatedly discounted like this in the early stage. No wonder Qin Yun reacted so strongly...
only…
Qin Jiaojiao suddenly thought of a terrible guess - why was Qin Yun's pace slowed down? It was because of the wasteland dispute! And the person sent by the other party to negotiate was Chu Tianxiao's number one lackey Mu Liuling! If he failed, he could still say that this was a game played by a loser, but now the other party had won a great victory...
Could it be... Could it be that all this was the work of that prodigal son
If this is true... This is too scary! What does he want to do? Restrict Yun'er? Is his purpose...
Just as she was thinking, Qin Yun's anxious voice rang out: "Sister! Don't be in a daze! Think of a solution quickly!"
Qin Jiaojiao finally came to her senses, thinking that the prodigal son's ridiculous reputation had not just appeared today, and she had already heard the news of buying local jewelry, which was even more absurd. To say that he hid it so deeply... the possibility was too small, so she decided not to consider it for the time being.
It's just that we should pay more attention to this prodigal son...
After changing her mind, she said, "Yun'er, don't worry. Doesn't that prodigal want to buy some jewelry? Well, let's make some too!"
Qin Yun's eyes lit up: "Sister, you mean..."
Qin Jiaojiao said: "After all, our Qin family has taken the initiative in the matter of refining equipment in the wasteland. Once it is launched, no matter whether he really buys the refining jewelry or not, there will be only one outcome - the loss will be so great that it can't be lost anymore, and then the wasteland guild will forcibly reclaim it and auction it off to our Qin family!"
"In this way, it would only take a matter of seconds to recover the lost wasteland."
"That's right!" Qin Yun nodded heavily. "Regardless of time, territory, and connections, we still have the advantage. If he doesn't refine weapons, it's fine. But if he really dares to refine jewelry to sell... he will lose money to death! Even if we can't buy back the wasteland by force, we will disgust this prodigal to death!"
Qin Jiaojiao nodded: "That's right, but the Chu family is a big family with many weapon refiners, so it's not a good idea to fight hard..."
Before they finished speaking, they heard footsteps coming from outside. They turned around and saw a man in a black cloak slowly walking in, revealing a familiar face: "It seems... you need an ally..."
…
At the same time, in Kyoto, the Chu family.
"So, this prodigal son is not completely useless..." After listening to his subordinates' report on the recent situation of Tianjue City, the blue-clothed young man Chu He smiled, "At least... he got lucky by accident. He is still lucky."
A man half-kneeling in front of him nodded and said, "Indeed, Mu Liuling's talent for mental arithmetic has never been revealed before... Second Young Master is really lucky this time, even if he offends the Qin family for this, it seems insignificant..."
"Yeah... If it were me, I would probably make the same choice. Anyway, the relationship between the Chu family and the Qin family has never been good... It's a pity that the manpower in Tianjue City was wasted. If I had known that this prodigal was determined to fall out with the Qin family, I wouldn't have had to spread rumors earlier. Now it seems... I have fallen behind, which is funny, haha."
Although Chu He was smiling, the subordinates in front of him felt a chill in their hearts and lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
"But... that's all."
Chu He paused, and continued: "Second Uncle and Qin Chuyang are about to arrive in Kyoto. The Great Autumn Examination is imminent, and the competition for the Imperial Garden is fierce... The situation in Kyoto is turbulent right now. I can't get away, but the backup plan I arranged earlier is enough to deal with it..."
"Young Master, do you mean... to use the chess pieces that were planted in the palace back then?"
Chu He nodded slowly, with a hint of mockery on his lips: "If you are the eldest son of the Chu family, but you don't even have an invitation to the Autumn Night Banquet, and you are so incompetent, do you still have the nerve to compete with others for the position of the head of the family?"
"Haha, I'm really looking forward to that scene..."
The subordinate asked doubtfully, "But... can he accomplish anything with just that person? Although the Tianjue Chu family and our Jingdu Chu family have been separated for many years, their strength should not be underestimated... Such an act is equivalent to slapping someone in the face. With the bad deeds of the Second Young Master Chu over the years... it is impossible that the other party is not prepared, right?"
“Yes, if it is a normal time, it is indeed difficult to accomplish, but…” Chu He nodded, looking at this subordinate with a little more admiration in his eyes, and the smile on his lips gradually cooled, “Who told this prodigal son to offend people as soon as he returned to Tianjue City? Haha, a prodigal son is a prodigal son. No matter how lucky he is, his knowledge is just so-so. He is just making trouble for himself and doesn’t know whether he will live or die!”
Chu He said, but a trace of doubt flashed in his heart: It's just... Even though the rumor offensive was not good enough, the situation I wanted was basically achieved... But why hasn't Qin Jiaojiao made a move yet? The most beloved brother suffered such a great humiliation, if it were the past, she would never have been able to bear it! What is she waiting for? Or... did that prodigal do something unnecessary? The woman's delay forced me to arrange for people to take action, which only increased the risk...
Chu He shook his head and thought to himself: But it doesn't matter! Even if something unexpected happens, Qin Jiaojiao can't just sit there. Qin Yun... is her lifeblood! At most, she will wait until my trick works and ruins the reputation of that prodigal son, and then she will definitely take action!
Chu He had accidentally witnessed the ambiguity between Qin Jiaojiao and Qin Yun, and he was confident that there was no way he could misjudge a woman's mind!
Thinking of this, a hint of coldness and murderous intent flashed in his eyes: That's right! That will be the death of that prodigal son!
Chu Tianxiao, ah Chu Tianxiao... I want to see how you are going to break this chain of killings!
