Chapter 552: Chapter 552 Just Energizing Skill

Qin Chuan was silent for quite a while before asking again, "Twenty years ago, among the Nine Gates of Yandu, approximately how many martial artists were there with Energizing Skill Peak Realm Cultivation?"

After pondering for a moment, Ye Zhong replied, "Each family had about ten or so Energizing Skill Peak Realm Martialists, two to three Half-step King Realm martial artists, and as for stronger martial artists, they were usually in seclusion."

"However, the Qin Family was different from the other Eight Gates at that time because of its mysterious origins and the numerous strong members in the family, including even a King Realm Strong; how strong the Qin Family really was, perhaps, only the Qin Family itself knew."

Hearing Ye Zhong’s words, Qin Chuan’s eyebrows furrowed. Things seemed a bit coincidental; twenty years ago, aside from the Qin Family, each of the other eight Gates also had about ten Energizing Skill Peak Realm martial artists, and mysteriously, those who went to the Nine Gates of Yandu also required exactly ten Energizing Skill Peak Realm Experts.

Besides this, Qin Chuan also recalled another matter. The Great Elder had mentioned that five years ago, both the Battle Domain and the Nine Gates of Yandu had organized teams made up of Energizing Skill Peak Realm martial artists to enter the Ancient Martial World, but all had disappeared, with only two from the Battle Domain returning alive. However, their realm cultivation had skyrocketed to the King Realm, yet they now lived as good as dead.

Twenty years ago, there were also very likely mysterious experts from the Ancient Martial World who had each taken ten Energizing Skill Peak Realm martial artists from the Nine Gates of Yandu.

Qin Chuan felt that the Ancient Martial World seemed to have deliberately taken Energizing Skill Peak Realm martialists to their world.

Of course, these were only his own speculations; the true reality would only be known once everything was thoroughly investigated.

Qin Chuan waved his hand, "You may leave!"

Ye Zhong looked at Qin Chuan with a complex expression, hesitated, but finally said, "Mr. Qin, could you give the Ye Family another chance?"

"Chance?" Qin Chuan scoffed, "Doesn’t the Ye Family Master realize that I have given the Ye Family many chances already? Yet, has your Ye Family ever seized one?"

Ye Zhong’s expression suddenly stiffened. Indeed, Qin Chuan had given the Ye Family several chances. The first was when he cured Ye Tiannan, who had been declared dead by the four Saintly Hands of the National Medical Hall.

But what happened? The Ye Family credited the accomplishment to the Saintly Hand of the National Medical Hall because they believed the Saintly Hand’s role in the Ye Family was far more significant than that of a young man.

Despite knowing that it was Qin Chuan who cured Ye Tiannan, they still refused to believe the facts right before their eyes.

And several times afterward, the Ye Family had the chance to gain Qin Chuan’s favor, but time and again the opportunity was destroyed by their own hands.

"Mr. Qin..."

"Get out!"

Ye Zhong wanted to say something further but was silenced by Qin Chuan’s furious shout, trembling all over, he dared not speak again and left with a look of disappointment.

"Next!"

This time, there was no need for Qin Chuan to act personally, as someone immediately ran up in front of him.

Without waiting for Qin Chuan to ask, the person introduced himself, "Mr. Qin, I am the Mu Family Head, Mu Chenghuang!"

"Mr. Qin, if there is anything where my Mu Family can be of use, please just say the word. Anything my Mu Family can do, we will do to our utmost, and even if it’s beyond our ability, the Mu Family will still find a way to do it for Mr. Qin."

Qin Chuan coldly looked at Mu Chenghuang and went straight to the point, "Twenty years ago, the Qin Family massacre, was your Mu Family involved?"

"Thump!"

Mu Chenghuang immediately knelt on both knees, his face full of terror as he said, "No, no, absolutely not, I swear to heaven, the Qin Family massacre had absolutely nothing to do with my Mu Family."

Qin Chuan’s gaze suddenly turned icy, releasing a murderous aura as he coldly asked, "The day before the Qin Family massacre took place, didn’t someone from your Mu Family take away an Energizing Skill Peak Realm martial artist?"

Mu Chenghuang’s eyes widened in horror, his whole body trembling with fear.

"I... I..."

Mu Chenghuang was so frightened that he stuttered and couldn’t complete a sentence.

"Yes!"

Mu Chenghuang suppressed the fear inside him and hurriedly said, "The day before the Qin Family massacre, there indeed was a mysterious person wearing a mask who came to the Mu Family. He ordered us to gather ten Energizing Skill Peak Realm martial artists to follow him somewhere at midnight."

"At that time, the Mu Family only had eight Energizing Skill Peak Realm martial artists. I asked if eight would suffice, but he did not agree. I initially planned to add two Half-step King Realm strong ones, but he refused that too."

"With no other choice, I had to spend a large sum to hire two more Energizing Skill Peak Realm martial artists. Even now, I clearly remember, usually, there are many freelance Energizing Skill Peak Realm martialists around Yandu, but it was difficult to find any that day."

"Then, those martial artists taken by that mysterious person from the Mu Family never returned."

"Mr. Qin, I have told you everything I know about the Qin Family massacre, please do not kill me."

Qin Chuan remained silent, pondering over Mu Chenghuang’s words.

Mu Chenghuang’s account differed slightly from that of the Lu Family and Ye Family—the Ye Family and Lu Family were each able to present ten Energizing Skill Peak Realm martialists, but the Mu Family had to hire them.

Besides this, he received a very important piece of information—they had attempted to use Half-step King Realm strong ones to fill the numbers, but were refused.

This indicated that the mysterious person only needed Energizing Skill Peak Realm martial artists.

If it was just about gathering a large group of Energizing Skill Peak Realm martial artists to annihilate the Qin Family, wouldn’t it be easier with Half-step King Realm strong ones included?

And fewer people would be needed, reducing the risk of exposure.

However, the mysterious person only used Energizing Skill Peak Realm martialists, which was quite perplexing.

Could it be that in the Ancient Martial World, there are things that only Energizing Skill Peak Realm martialists can do?

"Get out!"

Watching Mu Chenghuang, who was already scared out of his wits, Qin Chuan didn’t bother to waste words and directly sent him away.

Following that, it was unnecessary for Qin Chuan to take action himself, as the family heads of other families continuously volunteered to meet with Qin Chuan, with all their accounts resembling each other.

Only the Dragon Family remained.

Qin Chuan looked in the direction of the Dragon Family and coldly said, "Do I need to act personally?"

"No, no, I’m coming right now!"

The Dragon Family Patriarch, Long Qianqiu, hurriedly ran over.

Without waiting for Qin Chuan to ask, Long Qianqiu kneeled and said with a fearful face, "Mr. Qin, the Dragon Family is guilty! Please spare the Dragon Family a way to live."

Hearing Long Qianqiu’s words, Qin Chuan’s gaze turned sharply cold, staring at Long Qianqiu like two sharp swords.
