Chapter 299: Chapter 299 I’ll Keep You Company

"Qin, Mr. Qin..."

The members of the Song Family who had just charged at Miao Qingfeng with the resolve to die were all stunned as they saw Qin Chuan step forward to shield them.

Song Qingshan’s expression froze, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Hadn’t Qin Chuan’s martial prowess plummeted due to the eruption of the Kunlun Divine Poison?

How could he have so effortlessly blocked Miao Qingfeng’s attack?

Could it be that Qin Chuan had already taken control of the deadly poison within his body? Not only that, but he had also managed to retain his cultivation?

At this thought, Song Qingshan was instantly overjoyed.

After a brief moment of shock, the members of the Song Family regained their composure.

Mr. Qin didn’t need their protection, did he?

To them, Miao Qingfeng, who had seemed invincible, was no match for Mr. Qin!

Tang Yue’er also stared blankly at this scene, her mouth slightly agape, her face showing utter disbelief as she said, "So, he’s really that strong!"

"You, how could you possibly block my attack with seventy percent of my strength?"

Miao Qingfeng asked in horror, "Just who are you?"

Even though she had realized Qin Chuan was not simple and had guessed he was very strong, she never thought he could easily catch her attack.

Even though she had only used seventy percent of her strength, that was enough to instantaneously kill ten strong in the Energizing Skill Peak Realm.

If Qin Chuan could block that, didn’t that mean his strength had reached the King Realm?

"Seventy percent of your strength?"

Qin Chuan’s gaze suddenly turned frosty as he gripped his cane tightly and applied force.

"Crack!"

In the horrified eyes of Miao Qingfeng, her cane broke in half, snapping cleanly into two pieces.

"Pfft!"

Miao Qingfeng violently spat out a mouthful of blood, her breath instantly weakening by a large margin.

"No! Impossible! How could this be?"

Miao Qingfeng seemed oblivious to the fact that she had spewed blood from the shock, holding the broken half of the cane as if she had lost her mind, muttering to herself, "This is the cane made from the Thousand-Year Divine Wood passed down by my master."

"The Thousand-Year Divine Wood is incredibly sturdy; not even a strong at the King Realm Peak could break it with their full strength, how could you possibly break it?"

"This can’t be real! Tell me, what trick did you use to break my Thousand-Year Divine Wood cane?"

Miao Qingfeng’s eyes turned bloodshot as she stared at Qin Chuan, almost hissing through clenched teeth as she demanded an answer.

The people of the Song Family, hearing Miao Qingfeng’s words, were even more dumbfounded.

"Mr. Qin can even break the Thousand-Year Divine Wood; how strong is he?"

"Didn’t that old witch say it? Even a strong at the King Realm Peak couldn’t break the Thousand-Year Divine Wood, Mr. Qin’s strength must have reached the legendary Emperor Realm."

"Emperor Realm? How could that be? Don’t you know that in the Martial Path World there’s a rule that there’s been no emperor in a hundred years? How old is Mr. Qin? How could he possibly have reached the Emperor Realm?"

...

Even the Song Family couldn’t believe that Qin Chuan was an Emperor Realm strong.

"Tell me, what trick did you use to break the Thousand-Year Divine Wood?"

Miao Qingfeng shouted again, "And, how did you enhance the body of a martial artist? Tell me, how did you do it?"

"If you can enhance my physique, I am willing to pass on all my knowledge of Gu Art to you."

Miao Qingfeng was both angry and excited, angry that Qin Chuan had actually broken her Thousand-Year Divine Wood cane and excited at the possibility of breakthrough.

Having reached her level in cultivation, advancing further without some fortuitous encounter would probably be hopeless in this lifetime.

Most importantly, she had been stuck at the King Realm Mid-stage for decades, and her time was running out. Without further progression in her cultivation, she was truly facing death.

"You deserve to die!"

Qin Chuan said just three words.

With the fall of his voice, an overwhelming pressure, intense enough to suffocate Miao Qingfeng, locked onto her.

It wasn’t until this moment that Miao Qingfeng suddenly came to her senses, realizing Qin Chuan was an ally of the Song Family, here to kill her.

Even though she was unwilling to admit it, the moment she felt that oppressive force, fear took hold of her.

"You can’t kill me!"

Miao Qingfeng suddenly retreated dozens of meters away to Tang Yue’er’s side and loudly said, "I have no intention of being your enemy. I came to the Song Family today only to find someone carrying a deadly poison."

"This person had visited the Tianshan Grand Canyon three nights ago and was saved by my disciple."

As she spoke, she realized she had said too much and quickly added, "I know you have an extraordinary background, and I do not wish to conflict with you."

"As long as you help me temper my muscles and bones, aiding my cultivation to achieve a breakthrough, I am willing to pay a generous reward."

Qin Chuan almost gnashed his teeth as he asked, "If I don’t kill you, how can I face those of the Song Family whom you’ve killed?"

Miao Qingfeng hastily replied, "They are nothing but ants, their deaths mean nothing. At our level of cultivation, who doesn’t have hundreds of lives on their hands?"

Her words deeply angered the people of the Song Family.

Qin Chuan asked again, "In my eyes, you are an ant. According to your logic, if I kill you, it’s no big deal, right?"

Miao Qingfeng’s pupils shrank sharply, was the other party going to kill her?

At that thought, the idea of retreat sprang up in her mind.

Although she saw a glimmer of hope for a breakthrough in Qin Chuan, if Qin Chuan wanted to kill her, she truly wasn’t sure she could handle it.

Just as she was ready to flee, Qin Chuan’s body trembled violently, his complexion turning pale at a visible rate, large beads of sweat formed on his forehead, and his lips turned a shade of purplish blue.

Qin Chuan felt a stifling frustration within, the Kunlun Divine Poison had flared up at such a critical time.

Indeed, he couldn’t use too much strength, otherwise, the force suppressing the Kunlun Divine Poison would weaken.

"Why does Mr. Qin look so pained, what’s wrong with him?"

Suddenly a strong member of the Song Family spoke up.

"Mr. Qin’s expression seems very painful. Could it be that he sustained serious injuries when he blocked the Thousand-Year Divine Wood cane for us?"

"That shouldn’t be possible, right? Why do I feel like Mr. Qin’s condition looks like he’s been poisoned?"

"Poisoned? Could it be that cane?"

...

The Song Family was in a panic, believing that Qin Chuan had been seriously poisoned by the Thousand-Year Divine Wood cane.

"It’s you!"

Suddenly, Miao Qingfeng thought of something, turned to Tang Yue’er, and asked excitedly, "Yue’er, tell Granny quickly, the man poisoned three days ago whom you met, was it him?"

"No!"

Tang Yue’er was momentarily stupefied, then hurriedly denied it, her eyes filled with hatred as she looked at Miao Qingfeng.

"Hmph!"

Miao Qingfeng said coldly, "You think I’m so easily fooled?"

She directly activated the Lifebound Gu Worm within Tang Yue’er, instantly sweeping her with excruciating pain.

"Ah..."

Tang Yue’er let out a piercing scream of agony.

Bearing the pain, she clenched her teeth and said, "Old witch, you won’t get any information about that man from me!"

As she spoke, she staggered a few steps forward, then suddenly laughed, "If I die, won’t the Lifebound Gu Worm you left inside me die as well?"

"If the Lifebound Gu Worm dies, you die! So, if I die, you die too! Isn’t that right?"

Hearing Tang Yue’er’s words, Miao Qingfeng’s face changed drastically as she shouted, "What are you doing?"

"Giggle giggle giggle..."

Tang Yue’er burst into laughter, staggering backward as she continued, "Just as I thought, you’re afraid!"

"Grandfather, I’m coming to join you!"

Having said that, she violently turned around and with all her might, rushed towards a large boulder nearby.
