Chapter 485: Chapter 485 Reverence and Worship

Cloud Summit Heaven Villa—Song Yan was still in a deep coma, and Qin Chuan had tried many methods, but none had worked.

Qin Chuan said with frustration, "Is even the Qingxuan Spirit Qi useless?"

He had thought that if medical skills failed Song Yan, perhaps the Qingxuan Spirit Qi might have an effect. However, he was disappointed to find that even after almost exhausting his physical strength to channel the Qingxuan Spirit Qi to treat her, Song Yan showed no signs of improvement.

If it weren’t for the Blood Bead maintaining Song Yan’s last bit of vitality, she might have already died.

Looking at the woman with her eyes tightly shut, having only a faint heartbeat and breath, Qin Chuan felt a wave of heartache.

At the time of applying the Life Forbidden Technique, the user had to endure twice the pain of the target. Qin Chuan had been in great pain already, while Song Yan endured twice that agony. One could only imagine how desperate Song Yan had been.

Thinking about this, Qin Chuan’s sense of guilt intensified—had it not been for him, how would Song Yan have ended up like this?

He knew he owed this woman too much, likely more than he could repay in his lifetime.

"Big Brother Qin, Long Jieming from the Long Family has come. He says he has something very important to tell you."

Just then, Tang Yue’er’s voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Qin Chuan frowned, the Long family’s people approached him so soon?

He suddenly thought of something and asked, "Is it only Long Jieming?"

Tang Yue’er nodded, "Yes, just him."

Qin Chuan said, "Let him in."

By the time Qin Chuan arrived in the hall, Long Jieming was already there, looking extremely uneasy, with traces of barely concealed fear in his eyes.

Hearing the footsteps, Long Jieming immediately stood up.

Before Qin Chuan could approach, Long Jieming knelt on both knees and said earnestly, "Mr. Qin, I failed to recognize your greatness before and offended you. Please, punish me severely."

"Hm?"

Qin Chuan was taken aback; Long Jieming’s action had left him somewhat baffled. Was he here to apologize?

Was this some sort of mistake?

Tang Yue’er was also surprised. She thought that Long Jieming might have come because of the six hundred million he was deceived, but she didn’t expect him not to mention the money at all and instead kneel and apologize as soon as he saw Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan sat down on the sofa, his stern eyes fixed on Long Jieming; he didn’t speak, just watched him.

Long Jieming felt uneasy under Qin Chuan’s gaze, his body tingling as he knelt there, his mind restless. Many words he had prepared stumbled and halted.

Suddenly, Tang Yue’er said, "Didn’t you say you had something important to tell Big Brother Qin?"

She worried that what Long Jieming was about to say really was very important and feared delaying Qin Chuan’s important matters, so she took the initiative to ask.

Having recovered, Long Jieming, with shock filling his heart, realized Tang Yue’er actually called Qin Chuan "Big Brother Qin"—she was a power at the King Realm Cultivation level! Yet, in front of Qin Chuan, she was so submissive.

After the shock, Long Jieming hurriedly said, "Mr. Qin, I have a very important matter to report to you. The Long Family believes you have deceived them of six hundred million, and because they fear Miss Tang’s strength, they do not dare act rashly, yet they cannot swallow this insult. Therefore, the family meeting has requested my father to kill you to wash away the disgrace of being deceived..."

Seeing Qin Chuan’s frown deepening, Long Jieming quickly spoke, "Mr. Qin, please don’t misunderstand. Although this is the desire of most in the Long Family, I certainly do not think this way. I am very clear that if it weren’t for the elixirs you bestowed upon me, my paralyzed legs would not have healed."

"I believe that the ten Yijing Pills you sold to the Long Family are not ineffective; rather, the martial artists in my Long Family who took the Yijing Pills are too incompetent, and even the best elixirs are wasted on them."

"Therefore, I not only bear no ill will towards Mr. Qin, but am also extremely grateful to you, Mr. Qin. You gave me the opportunity to stand again, like a second birth to me. If you don’t mind, may I acknowledge you as my sworn father? I..."

Seeing Long Jieming’s words becoming more and more preposterous, even Tang Yue’er couldn’t stand it anymore and hurriedly interrupted, "Stop, stop, stop, Big Brother Qin certainly doesn’t need a sworn son as old as you. Dare to talk nonsense again, and I will kill you right now."

A terrifying pressure instantly enveloped Long Jieming as if he had plunged into an abyss, his whole body unable to stop trembling, finally calming down.

Tang Yue’er looked to Qin Chuan, as if asking, "Shall we kill him?"

Qin Chuan, staring at the trembling Long Jieming, suddenly sneered, "So, the Long Family wants to use your father to test my depths?"

Long Jieming frantically nodded, "Many in the Long Family are eyeing my father’s position as successor. With this mistake of my father, how could they miss such an opportunity?"

"Actually, my grandfather also does not want to be your enemy, but to protect my father, he can only follow the result of the meeting’s vote, demanding my father to cleanse the shame of being deceived of six hundred million. If my father fails, his position as successor will be removed."

"My father also respects you greatly, Mr. Qin. He knows the ten Yijing Pills you sold to the Long Family truly had effects, but due to the family meeting’s vote, he can only accept his fate. Now, he has personally gone to the Murong Family, Ye Family, and Liu Family, trying to persuade them to join forces against you."

He deliberately clarified that Long Teng was forced by the family meeting’s vote to act against Qin Chuan, even purposely mentioning that his grandfather also did not want to be Qin Chuan’s enemy, showing that his faction of the Long Family did not want to be Qin Chuan’s enemy either.

Hearing Long Jieming’s words, Tang Yue’er’s face turned icy as she coldly said, "The Long Family truly has audacity, thinking of joining hands against Big Brother Qin. Does the Long Family wish to be exterminated?"

These past few days’ experiences had made Tang Yue’er grow quickly; she had learned to use her Realm Cultivation to pressure enemies.

At this moment, knowing the Long Family’s plans, she was truly very angry.

In contrast, Qin Chuan, calmly looking at Long Jieming, suddenly asked, "So, you and your father are acting separately, he’s responsible for persuading the other families to join forces against me, while you come to apologize to me?"

"Yes..."

Long Jieming was surprised, not expecting Qin Chuan to guess it. He had just said "Yes" when he came back to his senses, suddenly anxious, he quickly denied, "No, I didn’t arrange with my father to act separately. It’s just that my respect for you, Mr. Qin, is like an endlessly flowing river, so I went behind my family’s back to specifically come and give you an early warning."

Qin Chuan was amused, smiled, and suddenly asked again, "Did your father tell you to kneel and apologize to me as soon as you saw me?"

"Yes!"

Long Jieming subconsciously answered, "Only this way, I could... No, no, no, it wasn’t what my father said, it’s because I’m so deeply respectful of you that I want to worship you upon seeing you..."

At this moment, Long Jieming blurted out all the words of respect he knew, desperately afraid of displeasing Qin Chuan.
