Chapter 193: Luo Family Ancestor, Two Disciples Arrive

Seeing the four men charging toward him, Qin Xiao pulled Yun Man back and stepped forward alone.

Since his Body Refinement breakthrough, Qin Xiao had yet to have a proper fight with a Soul Formation cultivator. Nie Yuanzheng had self-destructed after only a few exchanges. What a useless opponent! These four mid-stage cultivators would be a good test of his new strength.

Yun Man was worried at first, but the Soul Formation cultivator’s self-destruction in Spirit Medicine Valley reassured her. If even that had failed to hurt Master, four mid-stage cultivators should be no problem.

These four Luo family members did not immediately go for the kill. They planned to capture Qin Xiao first; whether to kill him or not would wait until the Ancestor and the two Young Misses arrived.

The Luo Family was a prominent clan in Qingzhou City. A crowd had already gathered to watch, and its reputation was at stake.

Qin Xiao did not know if these four would use lethal force, but he certainly did not intend to hold back. Moreover, at his full speed, these mid-stage Soul Formation cultivators could not keep up.

None of them had drawn a weapon. Rumor said Qin Xiao had no fear of early-stage Soul Formation cultivators, but all four of them were at the middle stage. Surely capturing him would be child’s play. Why would they need weapons?

As they closed in from four directions, the figure of Qin Xiao before them vanished. It had been an afterimage.

By the time they realized this, Qin Xiao’s fist was already striking from behind one of them.

“Be careful!”

Although the others also reacted, the warning came too late.

The blow sent him flying far away. He coughed up blood, badly injured.

“Draw your weapons! Don’t hold back! There’s something strange about this brat!”

The leader also realized something was wrong and quickly called for the remaining two to draw their weapons.

However, how could Qin Xiao give them the chance?

Qin Xiao vanished again after the punch. The next instant, he was behind their leader.

“So you’re in charge? You’re quick-witted, aren’t you? Then you’re first in line for a beating.”

Qin Xiao also noticed that this leader reacted quickly, so he decided to beat him up first.

The leader was no fool. The moment Qin Xiao vanished again, he activated his protective Dharma Treasure.

But he still underestimated Qin Xiao’s strength.

He too spat blood. His protective Dharma Treasure failed to stop Qin Xiao’s strength, and the punch drove him flat onto the ground.

With just two punches, two of the four mid-stage Soul Formation cultivators were already spitting blood.

“Stay back! Our ancestor will be here any moment. He’s at the peak of Soul Formation!” Read this novel at novelping . com for the best experience.

As Qin Xiao approached, the wounded leader could only inch backward along the ground.

He finally understood why capturing a single Qin Xiao required the Ancestor to send four mid-stage Soul Formation cultivators. Initially, he thought the Ancestor was being overly cautious; he alone could handle Qin Xiao.

Now he knew four were not enough. Not nearly enough! There was something terribly uncanny about Qin Xiao.

“I meant you no harm. I told you it was a misunderstanding, but you insisted on fighting. Don’t worry; I know my limits. I avoided your vital points. Will you listen to me now?”

Qin Xiao could have crippled their dantians outright. But they were members of his third and fourth disciples’ family, so he settled for injuring them.

The other two Soul Formation cultivators who had not been beaten did not dare make a sound now. They were grateful Qin Xiao had not targeted them; how could they dare say anything?

“You can explain, but no matter how you explain, it is useless. Do you think we have not investigated?”

Though he agreed to hear Qin Xiao out, the leader still believed he was in the right. He had merely lost the fight.

“Qin Xiao, you are courting death! You still dare to injure my Luo family Elders!”

Just as Qin Xiao prepared to explain, an old man flew from the distance, shouting at Qin Xiao.

“The Ancestor has arrived. I cannot beat you, I admit defeat. If you want to explain, go explain to the Ancestor.”

Relieved to see the ancestor, the leader struggled to his feet. Qin Xiao was so eager to explain? He could explain to the ancestor.

“I was afraid something might go wrong, so I hurried here after meeting Bing’er and Shuang’er. And sure enough, it has!”

Luo Kaijie had not expected to arrive too late to prevent two elders from being injured. If he had been any later, he feared Qin Xiao would have killed all four.

“Are you the Luo Family ancestor? I really have no quarrel with your family. I’m on good terms with Luo Yunbing and Luo Yunshuang. You must have heard a rumor and misunderstood.”

The old man looked to be the Luo Family ancestor, so Qin Xiao hurried to explain.

“A misunderstanding? If I had been a moment later, all four of our elders would have died at your hands! And you call it a misunderstanding?”

Hearing Qin Xiao’s words, Luo Kaijie grew even angrier.

“You called them here, right? Wait until they arrive and you will know. Let us pause for now.”

Qin Xiao knew that the more he explained, the worse it seemed to look. He would wait for his third and fourth disciples to arrive.

“Stalling for time? I know you’re close to the Immortal Dao Merchant Association. Are you waiting for them to save you? I won’t fall for it! The Luo Family has good cause to act. We have nothing to fear if the association questions us. Die, brat!”

Luo Kaijie did not want to let Qin Xiao stall for time to seek reinforcements. He must kill Qin Xiao before the Immortal Dao Merchant Association could react.

In Luo Kaijie’s view, his family was in the right, and the Immortal Dao Merchant Association had no authority to interfere in a private feud. Once Qin Xiao was dead, surely the association would not trouble the Luo Family over him. The family was one of its clients, after all.

The old man was even more impatient than the four elders. Before Qin Xiao expected it, he attacked. New chapters come out on novelping . com first.

Qin Xiao had to dodge the ancestor’s attack. The old man’s oppressive presence was too strong for him to risk taking the blow head-on.

Qin Xiao vanished in a flash, and Luo Kaijie’s first blow struck empty air.

“Ancestor, stop!”

After Luo Kaijie’s strike missed, just as he prepared to continue attacking, the Luo sisters arrived.

They had taken leave from the sect to visit their family; it had been two years since they last returned. To their surprise, the ancestor had come to meet them himself. Yet he had left as soon as they met, saying he had urgent business.

After pressing for answers, they learned that the ancestor had gone to capture Qin Xiao and avenge them.

What a disaster! They had rushed after him without another thought, arrived just in time to see his attack, and shouted for him to stop.

Seeing his third and fourth disciples arrive, Qin Xiao flew toward the Luo sisters.

At last, someone who understood! There was no talking to these old fools. He would let his disciples explain.

“Bing’er, Shuang’er, be careful! That villain is coming for you!”

Seeing Qin Xiao flying towards Luo Yunbing and Luo Yunshuang, Luo Kaijie quickly warned.

Qin Xiao was faster than his warning. Before he had finished shouting, Qin Xiao stood before the sisters.

“It’s over! All over! Our Luo Family finally produced two prodigies, and now we’re going to lose them!”

Luo Kaijie bitterly regretted his decision when he saw Qin Xiao reach the sisters. He should have killed Qin Xiao before fetching them. One mistake had led to disaster. Killing Qin Xiao afterward would not put it right.

But what happened next left him bewildered.

Were Bing’er and Shuang’er… bowing to Qin Xiao? And Qin Xiao was not attacking to kill them? What was going on?

Then the three arrived before Luo Kaijie.

“Ancestor, there must be a misunderstanding. Qin Xiao is our benefactor. You must not attack him!”

After receiving Qin Xiao’s signal, Luo Yunbing concealed their master-disciple relationship, instead calling him a benefactor.

“What is going on? During that competition back then, weren’t you two injured? And he humiliated you, demanding you become his disciples-is that not humiliation? How did he become a benefactor?”

Luo Kaijie was baffled. His information was right, wasn’t it? What was going on?
