Qin Shi was startled. He knew that he was ambushed by the Han Clan. Looking at the crowd, there were at least thirty of them. Most importantly, every single one of them had a cultivation level above the nine heavens.
The ones in the middle were even more shocking. With the elder who had just spoken as the center, they spread out to the left and right. The elder was wearing a golden robe with Blue Dragon and White Tiger embroidered on it. On his arm, there was a fiery red phoenix that looked extremely life-like.
Squinting his eyes, Qin Shi stared at the elder. Suddenly, he relaxed and said softly, "You are the leader of the Han Clan, right?"
The elder was startled, obviously not expecting Qin Shi to be so calm. He smiled, "That's right, I am the leader of the Han Clan. Little fella, aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid?
Why should I be afraid? "
After saying that, Qin Shi paused for a moment and extended his hand to point at that group of people, "Could it be because I planted your ambush?
If that's the case, then I should be afraid. But, is there any use in being afraid?
Will you let me go if I am afraid?
No way. So, why should I be afraid? "
"Huh?"
The leader of the Han Clan's eyes shone brightly as he stroked his beard, "Not bad, not bad. With such determination, no wonder the outer elders of the Han Clan died in your hands."
"They deserved to die." Qin Shi shrugged.
"Bastard!"
Qin Shi's words enraged many of the Han Clan's members. A few of the elders who were on good terms with the first elder of the Han Clan were enraged. They stood up and one of them directly grabbed at Qin Shi. Qin Shi felt as if the air around him had been sucked out of him. His legs became weak and he almost fell to the ground.
"Stop!"
The leader of the Han Clan twisted his withered hand. Only then did Qin Shi feel the pressure disappear. In just a short moment, his forehead was already covered in sweat.
"Hehe, little fella, it seems like you are not as calm as you look. You are just pretending that you are not afraid."
What kind of strength did the Head of the Han Family possess? He was someone who could rival the Head of the Li Family in disdain. Therefore, even the slight fluctuation in Qin Shi's heart could not escape his eyes.
The corners of Qin Shi's mouth twitched a few times when he heard this. Indeed, how could he really remain indifferent after being encircled by a few Domain Realm experts and a few tens of Heaven-rank experts?
He just didn't want to expose himself. At this time, in this kind of situation, if he panicked, then he really wouldn't have a chance. Only by remaining calm would he have a chance to survive.
If he were to fight with these people, he would have no chance of winning. Not to mention using the Nefarious Devil Force, even if the Nefarious Devil Body were to awaken, he wouldn't be able to change the situation. Right now, he could only think of thirty-six stratagems, and escaping was the best plan.
However, was it that easy to escape from the eyes of these old fellows?
"Damn it."
Qin Shi felt like he was in a crisis he had never felt before. It was almost as bad as the last time he was in the Chaotic Lands.
No, it should be said that it was even better.
At that time, at least he had many trump cards. Now, he had nothing. Moreover, even if he could really escape, he couldn't abandon Little Mi Cai.
"I have underestimated the Han Clan," he said in his heart.
"Little fella, I see that you are quite talented. I, Han Long, have never had a son in my life. If you are willing to be my disciple and acknowledge me as your father, I am willing to let you go. What do you think?" The Head of the Han Clan stroked his beard and suddenly said to Qin Shi.
Qin Shi suddenly came back to his senses, and he was slightly surprised.
Hearing this, the disciples of the Han Clan were dissatisfied. The elder who had attacked just now said angrily, "Head, you can't. This little fella killed Han Xuan and many disciples of the Han Clan. How can you not only kill him, but also take him in as a disciple?"
"Shut up!"
Han Long said coldly. He was very intimidating in the Han Clan. With just one sentence, those dissenting voices instantly disappeared. They lowered their heads and didn't dare to refute. Han Long then said to Qin Shi again, "Little fella, think about it. If you are willing, I will definitely nurture you well. Your future will be limitless. Moreover, my position will be yours sooner or later. You should know that although the Han Clan is not as powerful as the eight regions, we are still the natives of Shang City. We have a very large amount of wealth and influence. Many people dream of reaching this height in their lifetime. But you, as long as you nod your head, all of this will belong to you."
This result was out of Qin Shi's expectation. He rolled his eyes. Han Long was right. The Han Clan was indeed very powerful. It was not any weaker than the Li Clan. It was very attractive to a person.
However, he didn't lose his rationality. He sneered coldly, "Hehe, Head of the Han Clan, I don't think it's that simple for you to tell me this, right?
Let's not talk about the fact that I have a mother who gave birth to me, a father who brought me up and taught me. It's impossible for me to acknowledge you as my father. Even if I do acknowledge you as my father, you should have other requests, right? "
"Smart kid."
Head of the Han Clan nodded without hiding anything. "Yes, I do have other requests. Your adopted daughter is in my hands. I want to kill her and take her Beast Core. However, I want her Beast Core to be given to me willingly. She can't be too emotional or else it will affect my next plan. Originally, I wanted to use drugs to knock her out before I acted. However, I didn't expect that the Rainbow Auspicious Cloud Snake is an auspicious creature. She also has an extremely pure bloodline. Drugs are completely ineffective against her. Therefore, I want you to kill her and help me obtain the Beast Core. I believe that if it's you, she won't struggle. As for the matter of acknowledging your father, if you aren't willing, you can put it aside for now. In the future, once you are willing, it won't be too late to acknowledge your father. As long as you help me obtain the Beast Core, the Han Clan will belong to you sooner or later. What do you think?"
Creak!
Qin Shi clenched his fist fiercely. Han Long's words rang in his ears. Each and every word seemed to have pierced through his eardrums. An indescribable rage exploded in his heart.
Xiaomi Cai's life and death were played down by Han Long's words. It was as though she wasn't a life, but a broken doll. More importantly, Han Long was tarnishing the relationship between him and Xiaomi Cai. He couldn't bear to talk about benefits with him so blatantly.
"Bastard!"
Qin Shi forcefully squeezed out these two words from the gaps of his teeth.
"What did you say?" Han Long's face darkened.
"I said, you old dog. You want me to help you kill Xiaomi Cai?
Go and daydream, dogsh * t! "
Qin Shi was suddenly enraged. All the tolerance he had previously endured exploded at this moment. Without waiting for Han Long to react, he stomped his feet and his body moved upwards, shooting towards the outer area of the Han Clan.
Seeing Qin Shi's actions, Han Long was finally enraged. His old eyes flashed coldly as he shouted, "What are you all standing there for? Capture him!"
"Yes!"
Those disciples couldn't wait any longer. They had been suppressing themselves due to Han Long's obstruction. Now that they had received the order, they couldn't hold back any longer and shot towards the sky, aiming to kill Qin Shi.
They didn't hold back at all. Nine Heavens, Sky Summit, Domain Realm.
The three different types of pressure caused Qin Shi to bend his waist, and he almost fell from the sky. He fiercely bit his lower lip, and a trace of blood flowed out. The smell of blood made his consciousness firmer. He extracted all the thunder attribute in the air, and rode on the lightning to fly.
"Break!"
The Han Clan's elder that attacked Qin Shi previously sent out three palm strikes. A dark vortex appeared on his palm, and in the middle of the vortex, there was an ancient pattern. He slammed towards Qin Shi's back.
"Gluttony?
Voidfire! "
Qin Shi was startled. He flashed continuously and barely dodged it.
Following that, he turned around and saw the dark Voidfire. His eyes flashed with shock.
Gluttony?
He also knew that it was one of the ancient beasts that stood on the same level as Qiong Qi. Any one of the four great beasts was enough to destroy the world. How could the Han Clan obtain the Natal Flame Seed of two of them?
Dodging the elder's attack gave the others a chance to chase after him. Qin Shima was surrounded once again. This time, they were coming from all directions. Front, back, left, right, up, down, there was nowhere for him to run.
"Damn it. Can't I escape?"
Qin Shi's deep eyes darkened, and he became extremely serious.
At this time, Han Long stepped forward again. But this time, there was no smile on his old face. He was extremely cold as he said to Qin Shi, "Brat, do you know what you just said to me? If it was someone else, they would have died a hundred times. I just feel that your talent is not bad, and I don't want you to die prematurely. That's why I gave you a chance."
Qin Shi tried his best to remain calm. He sneered, "Haha, then should I thank Patriarch Han for his support?"
"You …!"
Han Long extended his hand towards Qin Shi. With a clench of his withered hand, Qin Shi's internal organs churned, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He said in a hoarse voice, "I'll give you one last chance. Go kill that little girl and give me the Beast Dan. Then, I'll let bygones be bygones. The Han Clan will belong to you in the future. If not, die!"
"Pfft. Cut the crap. Just kill me."
Qin Shi did not even think. Under the pain, he sneered, "You want me to kill Xiao Mi Cai? Impossible!"
Han Long's face darkened, and his last bit of patience was worn out. "Then, don't blame me. Go to hell."
"Chaotic Black Flame!"
Suddenly, the air under Qin Shi's feet burned, and black flames rose. That flame shocked Qin Shi again. Chaotic Black Flame was one of the four great beasts.
Moreover, it was the leader of the four great beasts. The temperature of the black flame was so high that it could melt a Mystic Crystal. Qin Shi suddenly felt his soul burning, as though his whole body would melt at any time.
"Argh!"
The pain made him groan. This time, he really had no other way.
He struggled with all his might as the Spirit Energy in his palms churned continuously, striking out at Han Long. However, his strength was so weak in the eyes of the Han Family Head. With just a single hand, the Han Family Head was able to control him so tightly that he couldn't even move a single step.
For the first time, he felt that he was so close to death.
The black flame had already burned his black robe, and it was about to touch his skin. Once he was touched by the black flame, he would definitely die.
"You're the one who didn't listen to my advice!"
Just when Qin Shi was about to be devoured, Han Long's eyes turned ruthless.
Boom!
However, suddenly, an incomparable sound rang out, startling everyone in the Han Clan. Even Han Long could not help but look down.
