In the Qin family, Qin Chaoyang rushed to a courtyard in a hurry, swept his eyes inward, and suddenly his expression sank.
He saw a lot of people gathered in the courtyard, some were disciples of the Eight Square Sect who lived in his Qin family, and some were the guards and subordinates of the Qin family.
Although the number of Eight Square Sect members is not large, all of them have the cultivation level of Principle Source Stage, and although the Qin family's guards surrounding them is in the 3rd-order, all of them are either Void King Realm or Void Return Stage Martial Artist.
Although the number is large, the momentum is not comparable.
The atmosphere on the scene was a bit heavy, and there was still a hint of blood in the air.
Qin Chaoyang's heavy and hurried footsteps alarmed everyone. When many guards looked back and saw him coming, they all call out to him: "Old Ancestor!"
The disciple of Eight Square Sect surrounded by the, all complexion look slightly ugly.
Qin Chaoyang nodded lightly and walked straight forward.
The crowd separated voluntarily, allowing him to go unimpeded.
When he reached the center, Qin Chaoyang swept his eyes to the ground, his eyes shrank slightly, and a trace of anger climbed into his heart.
There was a female corpse on the ground, full of fresh blood on the ground, and her death was miserable. This female corpse was obviously a servant girl of the Qin family. Qin Chaoyang recognized her at a glance. The servant girl gave him tea a few days ago. Today, the corpse is lying here, with a pair of beautiful eyes staring out.
And looking at the cause of the servant's death, it seemed that someone had shattered her chest with great force, her entire chest was sunken, and the vomit at the corner of her mouth still had some internal organs.
Qin Chaoyang watched this miserable scene, and his mind was up and down, his entire body trembling slightly.
The disciples of Eight Square Sect, looking at each other. All of them have embarrassed expressions, and one of them has a pale complexion and a handsome appearance.
"Who did it?" After a long silence, Qin Chaoyang took a deep breath, although his tone was calm. But the trembling voice showed the injustice in his heart.
As he spoke, he raised his eyes and swept his gaze towards the people of Eight Square Sect.
Those few people turned aside their gazes and dared not look at him.
"Anyone who knows, stand up and say loudly. Don't be afraid!" Qin Chaoyang shouted, his eyes swept over his guards and servant girls.
One of the maid stood out, biting her red lips, her face pale, as if she hadn't recovered from the fright before her eyes, her eyes were red and swollen from crying. At this moment, suppressing the crying, she knelt down in front of Qin Chaoyang with a thud, and said: "Old ancestor, Xiaohuan don't deserve this, and ask the old ancestor to be the justice for her!"
"Stand up and say, what the hell is going on." Qin Chaoyang bent over and helped the maid up.
After the maid stood up, she raised her head and glanced at one of the Eight Square Sect people. Seeing that the person was staring at her fiercely at the moment, she couldn't help but pale and screamed.
Qin Chaoyang naturally noticed. Reached out and put a hand on the maidservant's shoulder, a pure Source Strength poured in, soothing the fear in her heart, and said softly: "The old ancestor is here, no one can bully you, just tell the truth."
"Yes!" The maid nodded gently, then said lightly: "The servant and Xiaohuan are here to take care of the Lords in their daily lives. They are dedicated to their responsibilities and dare not slack in the slightest. Today the servant are here with Xiaohuan. Bring some food to the Lord, After putting down the fruit plate, the two of us were ready to leave, but unexpectedly...but unexpectedly..."
When she said this, she seemed to recall an extremely terrifying thing, her body trembled, and she couldn't say anything.
Qin Chaoyang waited patiently and continued to help with his source strength.
After a while, the maidservant gradually calmed down and said: "Unexpectedly, the Lord had become malicious and wanted to forcibly let the servant and Xiaohuan stay to serve him. The maidservant refused to do anything, and did not know what to do. Don't know what happen, Xiaohuan suddenly screamed, and flew out of the room. When the servant came out to investigate, she just...she just..."
Hearing this, Qin Chaoyang exerted a slight force on his hand, and the servant girl fell asleep. He rushed to the guard next to him and said: "Take her and let her rest."
"Yes!" Upon hearing this, the guard hurriedly picked up the maid and rushed out of the courtyard.
Qin Chaoyang turned his head and looked at one of the room in the courtyard, but saw that the door of the room had been broken. It was obviously broken by something. Combined with the maid’s previous words, it should be the maid named Xiaohuan who was beaten out. After that, the door was destroyed.
"Which friend live in this room?" Qin Chaoyang pointed to the room where the accident occurred, and looked sharply at the people of Eight Square Sect.
All of them looked evasive, flickering, and seemed to know the reason, a little embarrassed.
But there was one person who became angry and puffed up, and shouted, "This young master, what about it?"
As soon as this remark came out, all the Qin family guards looked at that person, and Qin Chaoyang did the same.
This person is just the pale-skinned and handsome appearance of Eight Square Sect disciple.
The man sneered under the public gaze: "What do you want to do? Before you want to do anything, it is best to weigh your own skills!"
When he spoke, the Source Strength in his body was urged, and within a short time, the cultivation level of 2nd-order Principle Source Stage was clear at a glance.
Qin Chaoyang was forced to retreat a few steps by this momentum, and the guards were even more unbearable. All of them looked like they were crushed by the mountains, their expressions were difficult, and the bones in the body creaked.
Although Qin Chaoyang was suppressed by the opponent's aura, he did not flinch at all. Instead, he urged his strength to stand still and said in a deep voice, "What? My friend is going to destroy my Qin family?"
"I didn't mean it, don't be silly!" the white-skinned man called.
"Xiaohuan was killed by this friend?" Qin Chaoyang gritted his teeth and asked.
The white-skinned man turned into a blank expression and muttered: "I don't want it either. I didn't mean it. It's just that she bit me. I was angry and frustrated. Look, how powerful she bit!"
When he was speaking, he rolled up his sleeves, and a row of fine teeth marks was on that arm.
"Just because of this, you killed her?" Qin Chaoyang suddenly drew a few steps forward, his clothes clattering without any wind.
Although his cultivation level is higher than Qin Chaoyang's, but seeing his angry look, the white-skinned man actually stepped back a little, and quibbleed: "I said it was not intentional. What do you want? A person who is also a cultivator, naturally knows that occasionally there are occasions when he can't control the strength."
"The old man is a cultivator, but the old man will never force an ordinary person without cultivation to do what they doesn't want to do, let alone killing them by mistake!" Qin Chaoyang said angrily.
"You old fellow..." The white man was also angry, "I can't tell you any more."
"Haha..." At this moment, another middle-aged man stood up, smiled and then rushed to Qin Chaoyang with a clasped fist: "Patriarch Qin, is it convenient to take a step to speak?"
"Say here if you have any words." Qin Chaoyang replied coldly.
When he touched a soft nail, the middle-aged man also had a slanderous expression. He secretly scolded Qin Chaoyang for being a little bit ignorant, but not too reluctant. After a while, he said: "Qin Patriarch, my junior brother Lin Yun killed the maidservant of the noble family by mistake, even though he was at fault, now he regrets it very much, and asks Patriarch Qin to raise his hands high, and let this be a small matter."
"Extreme regret?" Qin Chaoyang sneered at the man named Lin Yun and said with a sneer: "The old man is blind? How can you not see that he never has the slightest regret?"
The middle-aged man immediately cast a look at Lin Yun, and Lin Yun murmured a few words in dissatisfaction, and quickly bowed his head, looking listless.
"Patriarch Qin, people can't come back from death, you can't ask my Junior Brother Lin Yun to pay with his life, right?" the middle-aged man smiled authentically.
"He dare!" Lin Yun suddenly raised his head and sneered.
"Shut up!" The middle-aged man glared at Lin Yun viciously, which made him feel more at ease.
The middle-aged man looked at Qin Chaoyang again, and whispered: "Patriarch Qin, don’t lie to you, my junior brother Lin is not an arrogant and domineering person on weekdays, but he is just a little obsessed with women, and I’m afraid it’s because of this that this matter happen today, he has been here for a while, and he has been very restful. I don’t know that today is the brain of the worm. It really makes people wonder what to say about him. When in the clan, the vice sect master spoil him, so he has some tempers that we can't bear, so please don't care about him Patriach Qin."
"The Vice Sect Master?" Qin Chaoyang's eyes narrowed.
"Oh, by the way, Lin Rui's uncle is the Vice Sect Master." The middle-aged man explained with a smile.
How could Qin Chaoyang couldn't hear what he meant.
Lin Yun had a backing, that is to say, he did not only have this backing. With only his 2nd-order Principle Source Stage, no one in the Qin family could contain him. Now that this level of worries were added, Qin Chaoyang suddenly knew that it was impossible for him to pay for his life.
The Qin Family couldn't provoke the Eight Square Sect at all, although the latter was not a big sect, but it was hundreds of times stronger than the Qin Family.
Thinking of this, Qin Chaoyang couldn't help feeling a little frustrated and lonely.
His maid was beaten to death in his own home, but as an old ancestor, he could not punish the murderer, which made him feel uneasy.
"What are you doing with so much nonsense?" Lin Yun seemed extremely impatient, and shouted at this moment: "Isn't it just a maid, can't we just pay you with some money? Is 100,000 Source Crystals enough? If it is not enough, I will give you two hundred thousand! For a little family like yours, 200,000 is a huge sum of money, enough for you to spend for several years, don't refuse a toast only to be forced a drink of forfeit."
He looked contemptuous, how could there be any regrets? As if the maid on the ground was not killed by him.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man didn’t mean to stop it at all. Obviously he was holding this idea. If he could lose some money and settle the matter, it would be best. If not, he wouldn’t mind tearing his face and threatening himanyway, today’s matter must not be spread out.
When Qin Chaoyang heard this, his originally lonely expression suddenly became angry.
The middle-aged man hurriedly calmed down and said, "Patriarch Qin calmed down. Although my junior brother Lin Yun said this, it might be a good solution. Patriarch Qin offered a price, and I will not refuse."
