Attack Huang Quan?
What a joke!
The two sixth-level Xuanling Masters, when combined, were no match for her. Together, they couldn’t even hope to defeat a single sixth-level Xuanling Master, let alone her. None of the Qin family members present dared to utter a word, not even the two Xuanling Masters who were now groaning on the ground.
“The Qin family has already lost Prime Minister Qin, and there are others who can assume leadership roles,” Huang Quan stated slowly, addressing everyone in the hall. “You have a choice: avenge Prime Minister Qin and face the same fate, or let this matter come to an end. From this moment onward, as long as the Qin family refrains from provoking me, I won’t provoke the Qin family.”
Upon hearing these words, every member of the Qin family in the hall directed their attention toward a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was the second master of the Qin family, the younger brother of the prime minister, and the current head of the Qin family.
Noticing everyone’s gaze, Mr. Qin’s heart raced. He contemplated immediately leaving but, with so many eyes on him, escape was impossible.
Mr. Qin took a deep breath, suppressed his fear, and looked at Huang Quan. “Miss Nangong, your rise to power is largely due to Qianqian. While Qianqian may have bullied you, ultimately, she did not take your life.” He hesitated and continued, “And as for you…”
“What?” Huang Quan raised an eyebrow and locked her eyes on Second Master Qin. “Second Master, do you believe I’ve gone too far?”
Second Master Qin replied, “…No.” As a member of the Qin family, he certainly believed that Huang Quan had crossed a line. However, given the current situation, did he dare to voice such thoughts?
Qianqian, his elder brother, Yangyang, and the guards dispatched by the Qin family had all met their end at her hands.
“Second Master, if you decide to stop now,” Huang Quan gazed around at the people in the hall, her eyes lingering on each of them, “you can still survive. But if you choose not to stop, you can only go and join them.”
“Huang Quan, you’ve gone too far!”
An indignant voice echoed from outside, and Mr. Qin’s expression altered. However, before he could utter another word, the person who had spoken was already entering the hall.
A woman appeared, dressed in opulent attire, with a maid in tow. Her identity was self-evident.
“Turns out, it’s the Prime Minister’s wife,” Huang Quan remarked calmly, regarding the woman who had just entered the courtyard.
Upon the Prime Minister’s wife’s arrival, she charged toward Huang Quan with bared teeth and claws, as if she intended to tear Huang Quan to shreds. “What are you doing?” Mr. Qin urgently interjected. “Someone, stop Madam!” The maids and women who accompanied the Prime Minister’s wife immediately moved forward to restrain her and prevent her from advancing.
Huang Quan had no desire to engage in a confrontation with them. She gazed at Second Master Qin and spoke, “Second Master, you have three days to discuss with the clan elders whether to cease or persist. I will return in three days.” With that, Huang Quan exited the hall.
While passing by the two sixth-level Xuanling masters, Huang Quan paused, regarded them, and chuckled, “I won’t kill you this time, but if our paths cross again, your luck may not hold next time.” She concluded her remark and continued walking away.
The expressions on the faces of the two Xuanling Masters and the Qin family members were grim, but no one dared to intervene. They could only watch as Huang Quan departed after the upheaval she had caused in the Qin Mansion.

Boom!
The eldest young master of the Qin family had brought back two sixth-level Xuanling masters with the hope of settling the score with Huang Quan. However, before he had the chance to take action, Huang Quan had taken the initiative to confront him. Qin Yang had been killed, and the two Xuanling masters had been gravely injured and left in desolation.
The second master of the Qin family and the clan elders were now deliberating whether to continue their conflict with Huang Quan or seek a truce.
The Prime Minister’s wife had already lost her daughter, her husband, and her son. However, it seemed that the Qin family was leaning toward putting an end to the vendetta with Huang Quan. The Prime Minister’s wife, faced with the inability to exact full revenge, appeared to be teetering on the brink of madness.
