Soon, Xu Nian followed Qin Xue to the Qin Family Mansion.

The Qin Family Mansion was quite grand, with an imposing aura.

Moreover, it had its own guard squad.

However, these were just ordinary cultivators.

For Xu Nian, these people were as small as three-year-old children.

"Is Heavenly Thunder City one of the weaker cities in Qing State?" Xu Nian asked curiously.

"Yes, Heavenly Thunder City is quite remote in Qing State. There are over a hundred thousand cities in Qing State, and Heavenly Thunder City is insignificant. So, my father’s branch is considered the weakest branch of the Qin Family," Qin Xue said with some regret.

Xu Nian nodded.

For a Family Head of the Qin Family to only have cultivation at the Heavenly Immortal Realm,

in a world that spans mortals, immortals, and divine-level experts, it was indeed quite weak.

"Brother Xu Fenn..."

"Just call me Xu Fenn. I’ll call you Qin Xue."

"Alright, Xu Fenn!"

Qin Xue wasn’t one to be coy, and she agreed directly.

Xu Nian also found it much more agreeable. After all, being called "big brother" repeatedly by someone over three thousand years old was a bit jarring.

"Do you know what injury your father suffered?" Xu Nian asked curiously.

"My father was wounded by Heavenly Thunder, which injured his soul’s foundation. This Heavenly Thunder contained powerful laws, and my father couldn’t recover," Qin Xue said.

Xu Nian nodded.

Once someone reaches the Heavenly Immortal Level, both in the Netherworld and the Immortal Realm, they can usually recover quickly through their own strength.

But the injuries caused by laws are different.

Such injuries often cause continuous damage, and if one’s own strength is insufficient, it’s hard to recover naturally.

Clearly, although Qin Xue’s father had reached the Heavenly Immortal Level, he was still far from the Law Realm.

So it was basically impossible for him to heal his injuries on his own.

"Heavenly Thunder? Is it related to the name Heavenly Thunder City?" Xu Nian asked curiously.

"Yes, deep within the Heavenly Thunder Pool, there is a Heavenly Thunder Pool that some thunder cultivators frequently visit for cultivation. It’s said there’s a powerful Divine Thunder deep inside," Qin Xue said.

"Divine Thunder?"

Xu Nian was a bit surprised.

If it truly was a powerful Divine Thunder, even he might not be able to endure it.

It seems there are still many perilous places in the Netherworld.

The degree of danger far exceeds that of the Immortal, Demon, and Devil World.

Soon, Xu Nian followed Qin Xue to the Qin Mansion.

But when Xu Nian reached the Qin Family Main Hall, he heard a commotion.

"Lei Li, don’t go too far. My Qin Family isn’t at your mercy."

A dignified yet weak voice spoke up.

A middle-aged man, pale-faced, was standing in the courtyard, looking coldly at a young man ahead.

The young man stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze arrogant, seemingly not placing the middle-aged man in his eyes.

There were also many Qin Family guards and elders around.

But these guards and elders were only ordinary cultivators.

"Too far? You’re joking, Family Head Qin. I’m just asking Qin Xue to accompany me for a few days, not to marry me. Once I’m tired of her, I’ll let her go," the young man said with an arrogant smile.

"You..." The middle-aged man was instantly enraged.

Xu Nian also frowned.

This young man was truly arrogant.

He dared to suggest Qin Xue accompany him before the Qin Family and said he’d let her go once tired.

This was simply disregarding the Qin Family.

Xu Nian glanced at the young man and found his cultivation only at the Middle Stage of Heavenly Immortal.

Not much higher than the Qin Family Head.

Looking at Qin Xue, her face was extremely gloomy at this moment.

Her fists clenched, her eyes filled with strong unwillingness and anger.

"Family Head Qin, don’t turn a blind ear to my words. Hand over your daughter now, and at least preserve your branch of the Qin Family. Otherwise, the entire Qin Mansion will die, and by then, your wife and daughter will not just be played by me but possibly the entire Heavenly Thunder City," the young man said with a sneer.

The middle-aged man was instantly furious.

He immediately lunged at the young man.

However, the young man sneered and threw a punch.

"Puff!"

The middle-aged man was sent flying, spewing blood from his mouth.

"Just you dare to challenge me? Are you seeking death?" the young man said disdainfully.

"Family Head!"

The surrounding Qin family disciples were shocked.

"Father!"

Qin Xue rushed forward, looking at the middle-aged man spewing blood. Her eyes were filled with worry.

The soul body is also flesh and blood and looks no different from a real flesh body on the surface.

If severely injured, it would also spit blood.

"Xue’er?" The middle-aged man saw Qin Xue and was immediately surprised.

He hadn’t expected Qin Xue to return at this time.

Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and quickly said to Qin Xue, "Xue’er, run quickly. If you don’t leave now, it’ll be too late."

Qin Changfeng, the father of Qin Xue and the Family Head of the Qin Family.

Seeing his daughter at this moment, he immediately became extremely tense.

"Run? Where to? Qin Xue, come with me for a while, and I’ll spare your father and the Qin Family, or else today the Qin Family will be destroyed!" the young man said with a sneer.

His hands were behind his back, his gaze rebellious.

Qin Xue gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with intense anger.

At this moment, she wished to tear Lei Li to pieces.

"Don’t look at me like that. I said long ago you’d kneel before me, begging me to play with you!" Lei Li said disdainfully.

"Beast!" Qin Xue spat out angrily.

At this moment, only these two words could express her inner rage.

But Lei Li was full of disdain.

"I think you’re worse than a beast!"

At this moment, a faint voice sounded.

"Xu Fenn?" Qin Xue was immediately taken aback.

She didn’t expect Xu Fenn to speak up.

She had been so anxious about her father that she forgot Xu Fenn.

"Xu Fenn, just go. This is none of your business," Qin Xue quickly said.

Lei Li also noticed Xu Nian, with a flicker of scrutiny in his eyes.

But soon, a hint of disdain appeared in his eyes.

"A clueless ant dares to disrespect me? You must be tired of living!" Lei Li snorted coldly.

A powerful aura of thunder surged from his body.

Many cultivators around were instantly shocked, showing fear.

Qin Xue was also extremely anxious.

She hadn’t anticipated bringing Xu Fenn would harm him.

However, Xu Nian remained calm, looking at the thunder around Lei Li with disdain.

Such level of thunder wasn’t enough to even scratch him.

How could it pose a threat?

Xu Nian didn’t bother to waste words with him.

With a wave of his arm, an extremely powerful force instantly swept through Lei Li.

It directly tore Lei Li’s entire being into shreds!

The people around were stunned, speechless, seeing this scene.
