Chapter 54: Chapter 54 Because It’s You

Tang Zhonghan showed no mercy and erupted with his full force, launching an attack on Song Qingshan.

In the eyes of someone like him, going all out was the greatest respect for an opponent.

Song Qingshan also unleashed his full strength, knowing well he was no match for Tang Zhonghan, but still opting to meet the challenge with his strongest force.

"Stop!"

Just at this critical moment, a furious shout, like thunder, exploded above the Song Family estate.

That instant caused Tang Zhonghan’s mind to boom. And in the moment he stood dazed, a young figure stepped in front of Song Qingshan, raising a hand to deliver a forceful palm strike.

"Bang!"

Tang Zhonghan’s full-powered palm, now unstoppable, clashed with the other, emitting a dull thud upon impact.

"Pugh!"

Under the shocked gazes of the Song Family members, the once invincible Tang Zhonghan spurted blood, his body flung backwards for over a dozen meters before crashing heavily to the ground.

At that moment, Song Qingshan’s fully unleashed punch could no longer be retracted.

"Bang!"

The fist heavily landed on Qin Chuan’s back, yet such a powerful blow couldn’t make Qin Chuan retreat even half a step.

On the contrary, Song Qingshan felt as if his fist had struck a steel plate, sending a painful vibration up his arm.

For a moment, the entire scene fell deadly silent!

Everyone stared, dumbfounded, at Qin Chuan.

Was he even human?

Not only had he sent Tang Zhonghan flying with a palm strike, but he had also withstood Song Qingshan’s full-powered punch without showing any sign of injury.

"Qin, Divine Doctor Qin, are you, are you alright?"

It took a while for Song Qingshan to recover his senses before he asked in surprise.

Qin Chuan shook his head slightly and looked towards Tang Zhonghan, who had fallen a dozen meters away, with a flicker of murderous intent in his eyes.

By then, Tang Zhonghan had struggled to his feet, and at that moment, he realized who had just sent him flying with a palm strike.

His face filled with shock when he saw the incredibly young face: "How, how can this be possible?"

He was at the Energizing Skill Middle Stage, a top-tier figure even in Yandu, and yet, in this modest Jiangcheng City, he had been sent flying by a man in his twenties.

So, just how strong was this young man?

But soon, Tang Zhonghan’s feelings settled, as someone of his level naturally understood that there was always someone stronger, and heavens beyond heavens.

Song Jie, with tear-stained cheeks, stared wide-eyed at Qin Chuan, his face full of disbelief.

He knew Qin Chuan was strong, but never imagined that Tang Zhonghan, who was invincible against Song Qingshan, would be sent flying by a single palm from Qin Chuan.

In Song Yan’s eyes, sparks of admiration flashed, and a beautiful curve formed on her lips as she saw her grandfather saved.

The despair in Xia Wanrong’s eyes turned into shock.

The people of the Song Family, as if turned to stone, all stared at Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan, staring at Tang Zhonghan, asked coldly, "Why do you want to kill Elder Song?"

Tang Zhonghan coughed violently a few times; the strike just now had seriously injured him.

With a calm face, he spoke the truth, "I owe someone a favor, and they asked me to kill Song Qingshan in repayment."

After speaking, he glanced at Song Qingshan and continued, "Once, an old taoist told me that in this world, there are some people with extremely dense fates, and those around them would also be influenced and possess great fate."

"I didn’t believe it before, but today, I do!"

Song Qingshan’s heart trembled; he naturally understood the meaning behind Tang Zhonghan’s words. What surprised him was that he had heard the same words before.

It was fifteen years ago, when the Purple-robed Taoist who had foretold three events for him had said the same thing.

Could it be that the elder Taoist mentioned by Tang Zhonghan was that same Purple-robed Taoist?

Tang Zhonghan’s gaze fell on Qin Chuan as he said, "Go ahead and do it!"

Facing Qin Chuan, he had no intention of resisting, not because he feared combat, but because the casual palm strike Qin Chuan had executed had already shown him the gap between them.

In Qin Chuan’s hands, he wouldn’t survive a single move.

Besides, living alone in this world without any hope, death might be a release.

Today’s action was inherently unjust, but he owed a favor, and the other party had asked him to kill Song Qingshan, so he had no choice but to comply.

Although he hadn’t succeeded in killing Song Qingshan, he had fought with all his might. According to the agreement made back then, he considered the favor repaid.

Only, the thought of his granddaughter, who had been in a deep slumber for many years without waking, filled him with reluctance.

For a moment, various complex emotions appeared on his face.

Qin Chuan paid no attention to Tang Zhonghan but turned to Song Qingshan and said, "Elder Song, you should be the one to do this."

Song Qingshan shook his head and asked Tang Zhonghan, "You came to kill me to repay a favor, so have you repaid your debt now?"

Tang Zhonghan, not understanding why Song Qingshan would ask such a question, nevertheless replied truthfully, "According to our agreement, I owed him a favor. As long as I fought with all my strength when he required it, the favor would be considered repaid."

Song Qingshan nodded and then asked, "I can spare your life, but I need you to agree to a request of mine. Are you willing?"

Tang Zhonghan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in surprise, "You won’t kill me?"

Not only Tang Zhonghan, but also the members of the Song Family and Qin Chuan were all very surprised.

It was known that if Qin Chuan hadn’t arrived in time, Song Qingshan would have already been killed by Tang Zhonghan.

Song Qingshan nodded, "I want you to vow to follow Divine Doctor Qin to the death. As long as you are willing, I can overlook your attempt on my life."

Qin Chuan was astonished; he hadn’t expected Song Qingshan to make such a demand of Tang Zhonghan.

After a brief moment of surprise, Tang Zhonghan replied earnestly, "Divine Doctor Qin’s strength far surpasses mine. Following him would be an honor."

"If you spare me, consider it a life debt I owe you!"

Though he wasn’t afraid of life or death, he still had unfinished business in this world, and naturally, he preferred to live if he could.

As for following someone like Qin Chuan, a peerless talent, it would only bring benefits without any harm.

The members of the Song family were all dumbfounded; the two who had just been on the brink of a life-and-death battle had now come to such a conclusion.

Tang Zhonghan turned to Qin Chuan and said, "Divine Doctor Qin, give me half a day to settle my affairs, and then I will come to find you."

Qin Chuan nodded, and only then did Tang Zhonghan turn to leave.

Only after he had left did Song Qingshan speak, "Mr. Qin, I took the liberty of making Tang Zhonghan follow you. You’re not angry, are you?"

Qin Chuan’s face was tinged with bitterness as he shook his head, puzzled. "Elder Song, he clearly came to kill you, yet you ask him to follow me. Aren’t you afraid that one day he might turn on you again?"

Song Qingshan smiled and said, "Although it’s the first time I’ve met Tang Zhonghan, I’ve heard of his deeds. Even though we didn’t have much time together today, it’s clear to me that he is a man of deep loyalty and obligation."

"With Divine Doctor Qin’s capabilities, you’re bound to rise to great heights. You will face many strong enemies, and a man as loyal and capable as Tang Zhonghan can help resolve many troubles for you."

Song Qingshan’s well-intentioned maneuver touched Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan then asked, "Are you so sure he will willingly follow me?"

Song Qingshan nodded with a smile, "If you were anyone else, perhaps I’d have such concerns, but because it’s you, I’m certain Tang Zhonghan will be loyal to you."

"Oh?"

Qin Chuan, puzzled, asked, "Why don’t you have such concerns because it’s me?"
