Chapter 28: New Residence

Chapter 28: New Residence

Outside the city of Jinyang, the mountains and forests resembled a dormant giant black beast. A luxurious carriage, pulled by two snow-white dragon horses, was speeding towards the north.

Inside the carriage were Tang Xuan and his companions.

Tang Xuan, at this moment, still couldn’t recover from the shattering of the Heart Questioning Platform. He clenched his teeth and kept muttering, “I want him dead, I want his whole family dead.”

Seeing this, Old Mo couldn’t help but sigh. This trip to Jinyang City was entirely the young master’s impulsive decision. He wanted to humiliate both the Liu and Qin families and climb the ranks within the imperial family. Hence, he hadn’t reported to the family master.

Unexpectedly, this journey not only shattered his pride but also stripped away the foundation of his cultivation. With this loss, how could the young master compete against the legitimate son back home?

“Young Master, rest assured. After returning to Heavenly City, I will report this matter to the family master. The next time we come here, it will be the day of the Qin family’s destruction.”

But just as he finished speaking, Old Mo suddenly looked alarmed. He immediately grabbed Tang Xuan and swiftly jumped out of the carriage.

At the same time, the speeding carriage seemed to be crushed by a mountain, directly sinking into the ground. Rocks crumbled, and blood flowed like a river.

“Who is it?” Old Mo shouted loudly, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily. When he looked up, he saw the person responsible.

The figure wore a black robe and a faceless white mask, revealing only a pair of cold, emotionless eyes.

“We have no grudge against you. Why are you attacking us?” Old Mo sensed the opponent’s immense power but didn’t retaliate immediately, trying to probe through words.

Unfortunately, the faceless person remained silent, directly grasping the air. Old Mo let out a hysterical scream as he felt his left arm being crushed, even though there was nothing physically touching him!

What terrifying technique was this?!

“Young Master, run!” Tang Xuan was finally jolted back to reality by the scream and the desperate cry. He looked at Old Mo’s injuries in horror and then sprinted towards the forest.

Old Mo stood in front of the faceless person and said in a deep voice, “As long as I’m alive, I won’t allow you to harm the young master and others. Who are you?!”

His eyes widened in disbelief, gazing at the scene unfolding before him. Centered around the faceless person, a terrifying pressure spread in all directions. In less than a moment, there was a deafening roar, and the earth trembled. Within a mile, everything turned to ashes, and the once dense forest instantly became a flat plain!

“Domain.” Old Mo murmured this word, and his body disintegrated like dust, scattering in the wind. He never understood why in such a remote place, a small city like Jinyang, would harbor such a powerful individual.

Upon hearing the word “Sword Attendant,” Qin Feng couldn’t help but recall the exhilarating scene from last night, even in his dreams, he was surrounded by the vast, pure white full moon.

“Young Master?”

“Huh?” Qin Feng snapped back to reality and saw Xing Sheng’s suspicious expression. He cleared his throat and said, “Let’s go to the new mansion.”

Jinyang City was not large. After a short while, they arrived outside the new mansion.

Looking at the new mansion, which was more than ten times larger than the original one, Qin Feng felt emotional. From now on, he wouldn’t be awakened by his younger brother’s sword training anymore.

As they entered the mansion, servants and maids were busy cleaning the new residence.

Qin Feng casually strolled around and was surprised to find a small lake inside the mansion. Such a setup explained why it cost so much money.

In the center of the lake, there was a pavilion. Liu Jianli, dressed in white, was sitting there quietly. Beside her was Lan Ningshuang in blue clothes, resembling a painting of a beautiful lady from afar.

Qin Feng didn’t choose to disturb them. Honestly, he didn’t know how to face Liu Jianli yet. Since that was the case, he could only take it step by step.

The two quietly left, but Lan Ningshuang in the pavilion had already noticed them.

She whispered, “Miss, Young Master just arrived.”

“Mm.”

“Miss, Young Master didn’t share the room with me last night.”

“Mm.”

Lan Ningshuang sighed, “Actually, Miss, you can talk to Young Master. He... He’s a good person.”

A gentle breeze brushed past, lifting the strands of her hair, creating ripples on the lake.

This time, Liu Jianli didn’t respond. She just stared at the water, lost in her thoughts.
