Mr. Qin laughed like a madman. “Kid, I’ve experienced all kinds of things, and the number of enemies that have fallen in my hands is too high to count! Yet, I can’t believe that I was defeated by someone like you today! I can’t accept this!”

As it had come to this, I didn’t need to fabricate any more lies. I just sighed. “You rich people are really something. You have so much money, but it’s still not enough for you. You still want more.”

“Stop talking nonsense!” Mr. Qin thundered furiously. His face twisted, and he looked like an enraged panther. “Leave the manor, and don’t put your nose in this matter! Otherwise, I’ll kill Qin Tiantian.” 

Qin Tiantian was both scared and regretful. She didn’t mind her image and started crying. At this moment, she didn’t even look like the noble daughter of a wealthy family. 

Qin Sisi asked helplessly, “Uncle, why do you have to do this?” 

Mr. Qin glanced at Qin Sisi and clenched his jaw in anger. “Sisi, I thought that you were an honest girl incapable of scheming, but I was wrong. Now, you’ve joined hands with outsiders to deal with me. How could I be this blind?!”

“Uncle, you still have time to turn back. I’m not going to tell my father the truth. In the future, you’ll still be my Second Uncle, okay?” 

“There is no turning back,” snorted Mr. Qin. “I’ll give you five seconds. If you don’t leave after five seconds, don’t blame me for not showing mercy.”

Mr. Qin showed no remorse. If we made a wrong move, he would really kill Qin Tiantian. 

“Okay, we’ll leave,” answered Qin Sisi.

Although Qin Tiantian had betrayed her, they were still sisters. Qin Sisi couldn’t just watch her die.

I wasn’t pleased, but I couldn’t do anything.

While retreating, Qin Sisi said, “Uncle, I know that you want the Qin Group, but there was no need for you to murder my father.” 

“I didn’t want to murder him,” said Mr. Qin. He sounded much calmer now. I guessed he thought his plan was going to work. “I just wanted him to become insane so that he couldn’t lead the family anymore. But now, it seems my brother cannot continue to live.” 

“Second Uncle, that’s not necessary. My father told me that he was both mentally and physically tired. He was planning to hand over the Qin family’s business to you...” Qin Sisi sighed. 

Mr. Qin was bewildered. Then, he smiled coldly. “Did you think that I would buy that? 

“I’m telling the truth,” said Qi Sisi. “I swear on my father’s shares.” 

“What's the point of saying that now?” Mr. Qin sneered coldly. “It’s your father’s fault for being too meticulous and not allowing others to gain extra benefits. I’m not the only one who had opinions about his work.”

Qin Sisi wanted to say something, but I stopped her. “There’s no need to continue. There is no hope for him. He won’t be able to escape his crimes.”

Qin Sisi said helplessly, “Uncle, you’ve disappointed me a lot.”

Mr. Qin was somewhat bewildered. “What do you mean?”

Soon after, a man appeared behind Mr. Qin, slashing at his arm with a long sword.

The strike was very powerful, and it easily chopped off Mr. Qin’s arm. Blood gushed like a stream of water. 

Mr. Qin couldn’t even react to what was happening. He trembled and looked at us in horror. 

I immediately strode forward and pulled Qin Tiantian away from him. 

Mr. Qin finally reacted. He screeched, then hugged his cut limb. He turned to see the person who had slashed him. 

When he saw Qin Minghao standing behind him, he screamed in fright. “Brother, you… you…” 

Qin Minghao shook his head in disappointment. “Brother, you’ve disappointed me. I can’t believe that you plotted against your relatives just to obtain the position of family head.” 

“Impossible! Impossible!” Mr. Qin was desperate. “The Thunder Sword was controlling you. How could you be sane?!”

“You thought that you were the only one who had the help of an expert?” Qin Minghao sounded disappointed. “You rush things, you’re immature, and you underestimate your opponent. That’s the reason I didn’t give you the Qin Group.” 

Mr. Qin was desperate. He faced the sky and howled, “It’s heavens’ will to kill me!”

Then, he fainted due to blood loss.

When Shorty saw that his chances of winning were gone, he turned around in an attempt to escape. 

I reacted timely and jumped toward the flower bed, plucking the Corpse Scent Grass. “Why are you still standing idle? Kill that man! Do you want to wait for him to come back and retaliate?”

The seven fiends clenched their teeth and stormed forward.

The short man was startled. He quickly wielded his magic sword to resist them. The two parties began fighting at high speed.

Qin Sisi immediately ran to Qin Minghao. “Father... Are you all right?”

Qin Minghao shook his head. He looked like he was in pain, and tears lingered in the corner of his eye. “No matter what, he’s your uncle. Take him to the hospital.”

Qin Sisi nodded and called the ambulance.

Qin Minghao looked at me. “Mr. Zhang, I’ll have to trouble you again. I can’t put up with it any longer. The soul in the Thunder Sword is trying to claim my mind. Hurry, tie me up!” 

We couldn’t make any mistakes at this moment. The seven fiends were dangerous, but so was the soul in the Thunder Sword.

Gold-toothed, Li Mazi, and I hurried to tie up Qin Minghao with several ropes. At the same time, I used some simple techniques to stabilize Qin Minghao and prevent the departed soul from attacking his mind.

However, there was something I didn’t understand. At this moment, Qin Minghao was quite sober, which proved that he wasn’t pestered by the departed soul all day long. He still had minutes of sanity.

I see… He was just pretending to be insane in front of Mr. Qin!

I couldn’t help but admire Qin Minghao for his willpower. However, it was to be expected. Without such willpower, he wouldn't have been able to operate something as big as the Qin Group.

Then, a horrible screech came to my ears. 

I turned to look and saw that the seven fiends had pinned Shorty to the ground. They held his head and pulled his four limbs. I could hear the cracking noises resounding from his joints.

Fear filled my heart. The fiends were eventually fiends. They had no humanity and wouldn’t hesitate to tear a person to pieces!

I wanted to stop them, but it was too late. The short man was torn apart, and pieces of his flesh and blood flew everywhere. 

I saw his soul trying to flee, but the seven fiends didn’t spare him. They stormed toward him and swallowed his soul.

I was really worried. Although the seven fiends were also wounded, they were still more powerful than us. They could definitely kill us. 

While watching the seven fiends, dread filled my body.

I couldn’t wait any longer and asked everyone to run back into the building. 

However, the fiends blocked our way. 

They had already discarded the guard they had possessed and were floating in front of me in their soul forms. They said coldly, “Now, it’s your turn!”

Then, they swarmed toward me. 

I cursed and threw a handful of soybeans at them. 

Since they had been injured by the formation and then weakened by the fight against the short man, they weren’t as strong as before. When the soybeans hit them, they shrieked and retreated.

I was overjoyed. It seemed I could use soybeans to deal with them.

I shouted and asked Li Mazi and Gold-toothed to attack them all at once.

However, the seven fiends were smart. Since they knew the soybeans could affect them, they quickly moved to where the beans couldn’t reach them.

They then tried to catch me off guard. Since they were attacking my soul, I felt dizzy shortly after and almost ended up dead.

While I was deep in thought, a deep voice came from afar. “You stinky brats can’t even deal with some wounded spirits. It seems this old man will have to join the fight.”

I was elated. It was Senior Shu!
