Chapter 31 Adversity Counterattack_1

Qin Feiyang had no idea what was happening within the Lin family.

Currently, he was searching everywhere for Uncle Yuan.

After leaving the Lin family's residence, he had rushed to the forest where he and Uncle Yuan had parted ways. But his search yielded nothing. Not only did he fail to find Uncle Yuan, but even after calling out for a long time, he received no response.

Uncle Yuan was a War Emperor; Qin Feiyang refused to believe anyone in this area could harm him.

So, he hurriedly ran towards the lake. Uncle Yuan should be waiting for him there.

However, when he arrived at the lakeside and searched all around, Uncle Yuan was still nowhere to be found.

"Uncle Yuan, where are you?"

"Answer me, quickly!"

He stood on a large rock by the lake, shouting with all his might, his expression one of extreme anxiety.

However, in the silent night sky, apart from the echo of his shouts, no other sound broke the silence.

"Uncle Yuan, where on earth are you?"

A strong sense of unease rose uncontrollably in Qin Feiyang's heart. Could something unexpected have actually happened to Uncle Yuan?

"Uncle Yuan!"

Suddenly, his body trembled, a hint of joy flickered in his eyes as he looked back.

At the entrance to the area, a flicker of firelight appeared.

Qin Feiyang thought it was Uncle Yuan and was about to run over when a second flicker of firelight appeared. This was followed by the appearance of a third cluster, and then a fourth!

Qin Feiyang couldn't help but feel a wave of disappointment. With so many flames, it clearly wasn't Uncle Yuan.

He focused his gaze. It turned out they were torches. Under the flickering torchlight, he could faintly make out several blurry figures.

Why are there people here? Qin Feiyang frowned. Moreover, those individuals seemed to have a target, heading straight for him.

It's them! As they drew closer, Qin Feiyang finally recognized them.

Leading them were Lin Baili and the Lin Family Head, Lin Yong. Lin Yong was also dragging a maidservant along. This maidservant was none other than Xiao Hong!

Behind them were the Third Palace Master, the Martial Palace Hall Master, Lo Qianxue, the Zhao Family Head, Liu Yun, Yin Chuan, and the two young women.

Surrounding this group, more than a dozen members of the Lin family held torches aloft, looking around as if searching for something.

Why have they all come here? Qin Feiyang was suspicious. He had a strong premonition that these newcomers intended ill.

"Qin Feiyang is over there!" Liu Yun suddenly spotted Qin Feiyang and shouted.

Instantly, everyone surged towards Qin Feiyang, their manner menacing! Resentment was etched on every face. The disgust in their eyes was blatant! Especially the Lin family members; their fierce glares looked as if they wanted to tear Qin Feiyang limb from limb!

"What is the meaning of this?" Qin Feiyang's gaze darkened. If he still couldn't discern their purpose for coming, he'd be a complete idiot.

"Qin Feiyang, I was truly mistaken about you," Lin Baili said. "I thought you were at least a man, but I never imagined you'd try to poison Yiyi! Do you have any humanity left?"

"Qin Feiyang, your heart is truly as venomous as a viper!"

"Scum! Beast! Even if you were to die by a thousand cuts, it wouldn't be enough to atone for your crimes!"

The Lin family members unleashed a torrent of abuse at Qin Feiyang, their spittle flying.

Poisoning Yiyi? Qin Feiyang frowned.

Lin Yong shouted, "The irrefutable evidence is here! Do you still intend to quibble? Xiao Hong, right now, in front of everyone, tell them step by step how he instigated you to use poison! Let everyone see his true face!"

"Hmm?" Qin Feiyang looked at the maidservant.

Xiao Hong also looked up at Qin Feiyang, but she quickly lowered her head, not daring to meet his gaze directly.

"Speak!" Lin Yong roared.

Xiao Hong's body trembled, and she hurriedly said, "A short while ago, Qin Feiyang found me and ordered me to poison the Young Miss. He even threatened me, saying that if I didn't do it, he would kill my entire family. He also said…"

"What else did he say?" Lin Yong pressed.

Xiao Hong continued, "He also said that if he, Qin Feiyang, couldn't have a woman, then no one else could dream of having her either."

The Lin Family Head said angrily, "Qin Feiyang, what else do you have to say for yourself now?"

Lin Baili added, "Earlier, you confidently proclaimed before everyone that you only considered Yiyi a good friend, yet secretly, you tried to poison Yiyi. Qin Feiyang, I never thought you were such a hypocrite."

The Third Palace Master sighed. "Qin Feiyang, you've gone too far this time."

The Martial Palace Hall Master, Lo Qianxue, and the Zhao Family Head also looked on with deep regret.

"Everyone," the Lin Family Head declared, looking at the Third Palace Master and the others, murder glinting in his eyes, "this boy is narrow-minded and utterly inhuman. If we don't eliminate him soon, who knows how many more people in Iron Bull Town will die tragically at his hands. I suggest that while Qin Yuan is not here, we should swiftly execute him on the spot!"

After a brief hesitation, the others nodded in agreement. Although Qin Feiyang was a talent worth nurturing, he was too inhuman; he could not be allowed to live.

Seeing their agreement, the Lin Family Head was overjoyed and nodded to Lin Baili.

Lin Baili stepped forward. "Qin Feiyang, I originally didn't want to kill you, but alas, for the sake of greater justice, I can only send you to hell. But rest assured, I will leave your corpse whole."

"Haha…" Qin Feiyang scanned the faces before him and suddenly burst into loud laughter.

He finally understood. This was all a meticulously designed deathtrap, a conspiracy between the Lin Family Head and Lin Baili, colluding together like jackals, to eliminate him.

Lin Baili frowned, shaking his head. "Not only do you show no remorse, but you even mock everyone. You are truly beyond redemption."

Qin Feiyang's laughter ceased. He looked down at the Lin Family Head and said, "I truly admire you. To actually poison your own daughter just to frame me… Aren't you afraid that a slight miscalculation might genuinely kill her?"

The Lin Family Head laughed in fury and roared, "Utter nonsense! Baili, stop wasting words on him! Kill him at once!"

"Alright!" Lin Baili nodded, then leaped into the air, his True Qi surging out.

"Return to Origin Palm!" he bellowed, unleashing a terrifying palm wind as he struck towards Qin Feiyang!

"Charging Thunder Killing Fist!" Qin Feiyang threw a punch. The instant his fist met the palm, the large rock beneath his feet exploded with a deafening BANG, shattering into countless pieces!

The force of Lin Baili's palm far surpassed his own!

BOOM!

Qin Feiyang was sent flying by the palm strike, crashing into a pile of rubble by the lakeside and violently coughing up blood.

The Return to Origin Palm was also a perfect Martial Arts Technique!

The Lin family of Yan City truly couldn't be compared to the minor families of Iron Bull Town.

Lin Baili was a Three-Star martial master. Coupled with the amplification from a perfect Martial Arts Technique, he possessed the strength of seven Savage Elephants! That was the strength of two more Savage Elephants than him!

But… he wasn't without a chance of winning!

"I, Qin Feiyang, am not someone you can kill as you please!" Qin Feiyang abruptly rose, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, then suddenly slapped a massive boulder beside him. The boulder was the size of a winnowing basket! With a piercing shriek, it shot through the air like lightning towards Lin Baili!

Simultaneously, Qin Feiyang took an arrow-step, following behind the massive boulder, his hand reaching into his robes as he drew out Blue Snow!

"In Iron Bull Town, you might be considered a talent," Lin Baili sneered. "But in Yan City, you're at best a second-rate figure. Now, I'll show you what a true genius is!"

Lin Baili's eyes glinted with disdain as his arm shot out. His five fingers clenched, and he effortlessly shattered the incoming boulder. Instantly, stone fragments flew in all directions!

The two stood face to face! At this moment, the killing intent in Lin Baili's eyes was completely undisguised!

"Return to Origin Palm!" He struck out again, the wind from his palm howling like thunder, kicking up a cloud of dust and grit. The powerful aura made the Lin Family Head and the others turn pale and hastily retreat!

Only the Martial Palace Hall Master, the Third Palace Master, and Lo Qianxue remained motionless, their gazes fixed on Qin Feiyang, a hint of confusion on their faces. What was Qin Feiyang doing with his hand hidden in his robes?

It looked as though Qin Feiyang was about to be slain by Lin Baili's palm.

But suddenly, Qin Feiyang tilted his body, narrowly evading the palm by a hair's breadth. At the same time, the hand hidden in his robes shot out like a viper baring its fangs, fiercely swiping at Lin Baili's arm!

PSHCHT! With a flash of cold light, blood sprayed violently!

"AAAAH!" In the next instant, Lin Baili shrieked hysterically. His face, in that moment, was flooded with an overwhelming, indelible terror. Screaming, he staggered back rapidly!

"Trying to run? Do you think I'll give you the chance?" Qin Feiyang sneered, swiftly lunging in pursuit. The blood-reddened Blue Snow in his hand, like a fleeting comet in the night sky, thrust towards Lin Baili's chest!

"What's going on?" Everyone present was utterly bewildered.

THUD! An arm fell to the ground, drawing everyone's attention. Looking at Lin Baili's right shoulder, his arm was gone, and from the bowl-sized wound, glaringly red blood gushed forth!

Qin Feiyang actually severed Lin Baili's arm? Everyone was utterly stupefied. They found it incredibly hard to believe the horrifying scene before their eyes.

"Qin Feiyang, stop being so obstinate! Stop at once!" When the Third Palace Master registered Lin Baili's perilous situation, he immediately roared furiously, taking a step to arrive beside Qin Feiyang and lashing out with his palm.

"Damn it!" Qin Feiyang cursed. He was forced to abandon his attempt to kill Lin Baili, taking a sideways step to narrowly dodge the Third Palace Master's palm.

A cold sweat broke out all over him! It had to be known that the Third Palace Master was a Nine-Star martial master. Even without employing Martial Arts Techniques, he was not an opponent Qin Feiyang could match. If he hadn't dodged in time, he would absolutely be severely injured and lying on the ground by now, with no strength left to resist!

The Third Palace Master did not continue his pursuit. Shielding Lin Baili behind him, he looked up at Qin Feiyang, his gaze considerably grim.

PHEW! Qin Feiyang secretly exhaled, looking coldly at the Third Palace Master. "Is your Elixir Palace determined to make an enemy of me?"

"A heinous criminal like you, everyone has the right to execute him," the Third Palace Master said. "If you surrender now, I guarantee you a quick death and will not let your corpse be exposed in the wilderness."

"So, should I be thanking you for that?" Qin Feiyang said with a smile.

He can still laugh when facing the Third Palace Master? Liu Yun, Yin Chuan, and the two young women found it utterly unbelievable. This person's temperament was truly unfathomable.

"No need to thank me," the Third Palace Master said. "I only hope that in your next life, you can be a kind child."

"Haha…" Qin Feiyang threw his head back and laughed as if he'd heard the greatest joke in the world.

The Third Palace Master's expression turned grim. This youth's temperament was truly unyielding.
