These elders are all from the branch of the Grand Elder and Qin Kuang.
As for the other elders, they kept their heads lowered, choosing neutrality.
Because they knew this was Qin Chuan's final battle, and even if they helped him, it would be meaningless.
In the future, the Qin Family would still be under the control of the Grand Elder and Qin Kuang's branch.
Since that was the case, why not protect themselves?
The neutral faction was actually the majority.
However, they weren't a unified group, so none of them dared to act rashly.
It's like in school, where a dozen bad kids can bully the good kids just by clustering together.
"Oh, finally revealing your true colors? Can't win one-on-one on the Life and Death Platform, so you choose to gang up?"
Qin Chuan sneered and said.
"Hmph! Against the family's traitor, there's no need for rules, kill at any cost!"
The Grand Elder's face was indifferent.
"Ha, how am I a traitor again? Did the Grand Elder take a laxative last night? Speaking nonsense non-stop."
Qin Chuan shook his head with a smile.
"Unrepentant, death is not a pity! Kill!"
The Grand Elder shouted, then charged at Qin Chuan with several elders.
These people had cultivated for decades, all at the ninth level of the Yuan Dan Realm, charging together like a thousand strong cavalry!
However, Qin Chuan remained unfazed, slowly raised his right hand, gathering his entire strength, and then blasted out a punch!!
"Boom boom boom!"
Immediately, hundreds of golden meteors formed, furiously smashing towards the Grand Elder and the others.
"Break!"
"Block it for me!"
"Kill!!"
The people shouted fiercely, using their martial arts.
But each of those hundreds of meteors carried immense power, ultimately making them unable to resist.
"Pfft!"
"Ah, my hand!"
"Boom!!"
The several elders screamed and were sent flying backward.
Meanwhile, the Grand Elder's Protective Gang Energy surged, forming a shield that actually blocked the meteor strikes.
However, the next moment, a figure appeared before him like a gust of wind and punched him in the abdomen.
"Pfft—"
The powerful force instantly destroyed the Protective Gang Energy, then pierced through the body, causing him to cough up blood and fly out.
In just two breaths, all the elders suffered a total defeat!
"Quick, capture him, capture him for me!"
At this moment, the patriarch Qin Kuang had recovered, and shouted angrily at the neutral elders of the Qin Family.
Qin Chuan turned around, smiling as he looked at him.
"You!!"
Qin Kuang's pupils contracted, his heart trembling fiercely.
"Pfft!"
The next moment, a fist-light penetrated his chest, leaving a hole clear through!
"You... so ruthless."
Blood dripped from the corner of Qin Kuang's mouth, and he pointed at Qin Chuan with a hooked finger before falling unwillingly.
"Kuang'er!"
The Grand Elder cried out in grief, then roared at the neutral elders: "This man has killed the patriarch, his crime is heinous! What are you waiting for, kill him!"
The neutral elders looked at each other in dismay.
Qin Chuan glanced at those people, and said flatly: "Today I'm purging the Qin Family. Anyone who intervenes will be wiped out."
Swoosh!
Immediately, those elders retreated in unison.
"You... you fence-sitters!!"
The Grand Elder cursed angrily, then seemed to remember something, suddenly turned around and shouted: "Quick, catch that little bastard Qin Zi!!"
However, when the wailing elders turned to look, they found that Qin Zi, who was originally standing at the doorway, was nowhere to be seen...
He had sneaked away while they were not paying attention!
The Grand Elder's face showed a look of despair, pointing gnarled at Qin Chuan: "You... you planned this all along, didn't you? Didn't you?!"
"None of your damn business!"
Qin Chuan sneered, the space ring on his right hand flashed, and a cold long sword appeared in his hand, which he swung casually!
"Buzz—"
A bright sword light, like a crescent moon, swept over the Grand Elder and several other elders.
"Pfft pfft pfft pfft..."
Blood gushed from their necks like spring water, unable to be covered, and they fell unwillingly.
The blood spread on the ground, the scent of it permeating the air...
"This... this..."
The reversal was too fast, the surrounding people were first stunned, then their faces turned pale as they quickly retreated.
The members of the Qin Family were also in a daze for a moment.
Then, someone directly knelt down.
"Please, patriarch, take back control of the Qin Family!"
Once someone took the lead, like a chain reaction, others quickly knelt down too.
Even those neutral elders of the Qin Family gradually knelt down as well, making a unified sound.
"Please, patriarch, take back control of the Qin Family!"
"Please, patriarch, take back control of the Qin Family!
Some of them lowered their heads, seemingly guilty, while others looked at Qin Chuan with fervent eyes.
With such a powerful patriarch leading the Qin Family, the Qin Family would surely reach new heights, even more glorious than before!
However.
Looking at those kneeling on the ground, Qin Chuan sneered disdainfully.
Now they knew to kneel?
What were they doing before?
He never really felt a sense of belonging to this so-called family. Now, the last shred of goodwill he had was completely gone!
He scanned the crowd of the Qin Family and said flatly: "Everyone, stand up. The Qin Family is yours, it has nothing to do with me."
"What?!"
"Patriarch, you..."
The people of the Qin Family looked up in shock.
"Do I need to spell it out?"
Qin Chuan's face showed a hint of indifference as he said: "Before, when Qin Kuang and the others wanted to kill me, you all watched coldly..."
"Heh, what? If I, Qin Chuan, die, then I'm dead; if I live, I have to work like a slave for the Qin Family, selflessly giving?"
His voice was full of sarcasm.
"You could all watch me die with your eyes open, so why should I live for you? From now on, I sever all ties with the Qin Family!"
After speaking, he flicked his hand.
"Clang!"
The long sword in his hand flew out, lodging deeply into the plaque engraved with "Qin Mansion"!
"Crack!"
The plaque split in the middle, and the half with the word "Qin" carved on it fell to the ground.
The people of the Qin Family trembled at the sight.
No one dared to speak again.
Indeed, they had wronged Qin Chuan!!
Qin Chuan gazed over the crowd of the Qin Family and said flatly: "I, Qin Chuan, have risked my life for the Qin Family for many years, and have built many enterprises. Now, I'm taking nothing, which is my repayment for the so-called... nurturing grace!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, farewell."
After speaking, he cupped his hands to everyone around him and then turned to leave.
"Father."
Qin Zi emerged from the crowd.
"Let's go, we're leaving Xunyang City."
Qin Chuan took his son's hand and said calmly.
"Alright."
Qin Zi nodded.
The figures of the father and son gradually left the street under the gaze of the crowd.
"This... this..."
"Sigh!!"
The people of the Qin Family watched the two figures gradually disappear, and suddenly felt a sense of desolation as if all was lost.
After today, the Qin Family's strength would be greatly reduced, and their reputation would be damaged, becoming the laughing stock of Xunyang City.
The elders of the Qin Family were full of bitterness.
They regretted not thinking twice!
They should never have listened to the deceit of Qin Kuang and removed Qin Chuan from the position of Patriarch and done things so irrevocably.
Now, it's too late for regrets.
...
A while later, in the midst of the crowd, Qin Zi looked up and asked, "Dad, where are we going now?"
He didn't really have any attachment to the Qin Family anyway, after all, they've been cold to him over the years.
Qin Chuan smiled calmly.
"Right!!"
He said, "I can go anywhere, can't I, in a world this wide?"
