Chapter 32: The Clan's Demise
Chapter 32: The Clan’s Demise
As the words left his mouth, the Qin family members erupted in anger.
The elder of the Qin family, his face darkening, spoke with a voice filled with malice.
"Master Gu, you are still young and too hotheaded. The world of martial arts is far more complex than you think. The Qin family has stood tall for generations, and we are not without our own strength. It’s always better to maintain harmony and mutual prosperity. If we must resort to conflict, neither of us will benefit!"
"It’s not that I’m young; it’s that you are old. In the world of martial arts, there is no such thing as mutual prosperity. Only the strongest rule!"
Gu Qingfeng laughed loudly, then took a step forward, his aura surging like rolling smoke, piercing the sky.
"Strength is power!"
"Today, my strength is unmatched, and the rules of this world will be set by me!"
"I have given the Qin family a chance, but since you refuse to cherish it, the Qin family has no reason to exist—"
With that, he struck.
A powerful, overwhelming force shattered the air, the pressure causing a deafening thunderclap that made the Qin family elder’s face pale.
"You insolent brat!"
The elder, enraged, summoned a formidable aura from his aging body, his withered skin suddenly becoming plump and vibrant. He extended his fingers, which moved like shooting stars, swift as lightning, creating a dazzling array of finger shadows, each containing the power to split mountains and shatter rocks.
This was the Qin family’s ultimate technique: Meteor Piercing Cloud Finger!
However, as Gu Qingfeng’s punch landed, a crack echoed through the air, and the finger shadows vanished. The Qin family elder’s face twisted in pain, his right fingers grotesquely deformed, the bones shattered by the impact.
In contrast, Gu Qingfeng’s fist bore only a few white marks, showing no signs of damage.
Then, Gu Qingfeng lunged forward again, his palms releasing a mix of raw and overwhelming power, a scorching heat radiating from them, engulfing the Qin family elder.
Faced with such an attack, the elder felt a long-forgotten fear surge within him. He tried to beg for mercy, but it was too late.
Thus, the elder could only muster all his strength to resist.
"Boom—"
The palms clashed.
The Qin family elder was sent flying, crashing into several disciples, their bones breaking from the impact. They didn’t even have time to scream before they lay lifeless on the ground.
When the elder finally landed, he spat out another mouthful of blood, falling silent.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. From the moment Gu Qingfeng struck to the elder’s death, only a few breaths had passed.
When the others finally reacted, the Qin family elder was already dead.
This scene left everyone stunned.
The Qin family elder!
He was a renowned martial artist, known throughout the world for his strength. Though he hadn’t personally fought in years, his reputation remained untarnished.
Yet, in front of Gu Qingfeng, this formidable warrior couldn’t last a few rounds before being slain.
Gu Qingfeng’s strength left everyone in awe.
Especially those from the Four Seas Gang, who had already pledged their allegiance to the Gu family, felt an immense sense of relief.
Thankfully!
They had chosen to submit to the Gu family first.
Otherwise, offending such a powerful warrior would have had dire consequences.
On the other side, the Qin family members were all filled with sorrow, and many of them were gripped by fear. The only Blood Refinement expert in their clan had fallen, and the Gu family’s strength was clearly far beyond what they could resist.
Just as Qin Hongtang was about to speak and capitulate, Gu Qingfeng waved his hand and coldly issued his command.
“Kill them all! Not a single Qin family member will be left alive today!”
With those words, Meng Peng immediately led the Gu family guards toward the Qin family.
The forces that had submitted to the Gu family, such as Murong Xi, did not dare to delay, hurriedly following behind the Gu family to join in the attack.
Seeing this, Qin Hongtang’s eyes nearly burst from their sockets. “Gu Qingfeng, are you truly going to exterminate my entire clan?”
“I’ve already given you a chance. I, Gu Qingfeng, am a man of my word. If I say I will wipe out your entire clan today, then that is exactly what will happen!”
Gu Qingfeng’s expression was cold and indifferent. As he spoke, he took a step forward, appearing directly in front of Qin Hongtang. He struck out with a palm, causing the Qin family patriarch’s face to pale.
Bang!
Despite his desperate resistance, Qin Hongtang was only a late-stage Blood Refinement practitioner. His strength was far inferior to Gu Qingfeng’s. In a single strike, his chest was crushed, and he was killed instantly without even a chance to scream.
With Qin Hongtang’s death, Gu Qingfeng did not pause. He continued his assault on the remaining Qin family warriors.
At his near-Bone Forging realm strength, the Qin family warriors were like paper, unable to withstand a single attack. Under the scorching power of his Solar Palm, they all met their end.
In less than a quarter of an hour, every Blood Refinement warrior in the Qin family had been slain.
The remaining Skin Refinement warriors were also slaughtered by Meng Peng and the forces of the Four Seas Gang.
Although the Four Seas Gang and other forces were not as strong as the Qin family, they still had considerable strength, especially at the Skin Refinement level, where they had several experts.
With Meng Peng, a newly minted Blood Refinement practitioner, leading the charge, dealing with the Qin family warriors was no issue.
When the last warrior fell, Meng Peng approached Gu Qingfeng and bowed.
“Report to the Patriarch, all Qin family warriors have been eliminated!”
Gu Qingfeng glanced at him, his voice indifferent and devoid of emotion.
“I said I would wipe out the entire Qin family. By stopping now, are you trying to make me break my word?”
These words sent a chill down Meng Peng’s spine.
Despite Gu Qingfeng’s calm tone, Meng Peng could sense the icy killing intent. It was clear that the Patriarch was displeased with his hesitation.
Without delay, Meng Peng did not hesitate. He raised his weapon and faced the remaining Qin family members, his expression ruthless.
“By the Patriarch’s order, not a single Qin family member will be left alive. Kill them all!”
With that command, the slaughter resumed.
The Qin family members screamed in agony, and some even cursed as they faced death.
“Gu Qingfeng, may you die a thousand deaths!”
“You are a cruel and merciless man. Even in death, we will not let you rest!”
Gu Qingfeng’s expression remained cold and indifferent. He showed no reaction to the curses of the dying Qin family members.
Eliminate the roots!
This was a necessity in the world of martial arts.
If he hadn’t completely broken ties with the Qin family, it would be one thing. But now that he had, he needed to finish the job thoroughly.
Gu Qingfeng did not want his momentary leniency to cause him unnecessary trouble in the future.
As for the curses, he paid them no mind.
In this world, it was the strength of one’s fists that spoke the loudest!
