Asura Mad Emperor

"Heh heh, it\'s good that you Qin Family understand this," the guest from the Lin Family seated below said, sipping tea lightly and then glancing at the Qin Family Great Elder with a faint smile; he continued in a calm and unhurried manner.

The Qin Family was only a declining clan in Great Wilderness City. In contrast, the Lin Family was a first-rate clan of Great Wilderness City, far more powerful in heritage than the Qin Family!

Moreover, it was said that they were backed by the Lin Family of Shanhe County, a colossal entity compared to the Qin Family!

"I\'ve heard that your Qin Family has offended the Zhao Family, and these days, you are under their oppression, finding it difficult to even take a step forward."

"Rest assured, once Qin Xiaoyu marries my younger brother and joins our Lin Family, we will naturally step forward to mediate and resolve the grievances between the Qin and Zhao families. I trust the Zhao Family will give the Lin Family this face," Lin Que remarked with a trace of a smile on his face.

"Great Elder, I... I don\'t want this marriage alliance with the Lin Family, I don\'t want to marry the Third Young Master of the Lin Family!" At that moment, however, a timid voice suddenly spoke up in the hall.

It was Qin Xiaoyu, a little girl of only ten years old, not yet of age, yet she was the one who the Lin Family had proposed marriage to!

This was known throughout the city!

If Qin Xiaoyu were to marry him, it would be the ruination of her entire life!

"Hmm?"

As soon as Qin Xiaoyu\'s voice fell, Lin Que\'s brows raised, and an expression of displeasure appeared on his face.

"Slap!"

Seeing this, Qin Lu, the granddaughter of the Qin Family Great Elder, immediately rushed forward to Qin Xiaoyu and slapped the little girl across the face, scolding, "Qin Xiaoyu, what place do you have to speak during family deliberations?!"

"The family wants me to marry the Third Young Master of the Lin Family; that is my business. Why can\'t I have a say?" Qin Xiaoyu countered, holding her swollen cheek, both defiant and aggrieved.

"You dare talk back?!" Qin Lu\'s face turned cold as she said: "The Lin Family is the number one clan in Great Wilderness City. It\'s your great fortune that Third Young Master Lin has taken a liking to you, and yet you dare to disagree?!"

With that, Qin Lu raised her hand and slapped the little girl\'s face again.

The crisp slap on Qin Xiaoyu\'s stubborn little face immediately made her other cheek swell up red as well!

Such mercilessness was displayed against a mere ten-year-old girl!

From the guest seat, Lin Que casually glanced at Qin Lu and said, "You do understand the situation."

"Thank you for your praise, Young Master Lin," Qin Lu replied with a sweet smile upon hearing those words.

Without saying much more, Lin Que\'s indifferent gaze fell upon Qin Xiaoyu, and with disdain, he sneered, "Marrying into our Lin Family is your Qin Family\'s blessing. Now that I, the Young Master, have personally come to ask for your hand, you dare to refuse?! What right do you have to refuse?!"

His expression darkened as he spoke.

The Qin Family Great Elder, seeing Lin Que\'s apparent anger, immediately changed his expression and with a stern tone turned to Qin Xiaoyu, "Qin Xiaoyu, our Qin Family is in the midst of a crisis of survival. Only the Lin Family can save us. As the daughter of the Qin Family, do you not consider the welfare of the clan at all?"

"The clan leader has gone to the Spirit Martial Great Tomb three years ago and has been incommunicado ever since; he may have met with misfortune. Since your father is not here, your lifelong matters will be decided by this Elder. Since Third Young Master Lin has proposed, I shall accept on your behalf! Tomorrow, you shall marry the Third Young Master!"

Then, his stern expression vanished, and he immediately put on a smiling face, nodding and bowing to Lin Que: "Young Master Lin, Qin Xiaoyu is young and ignorant. Please do not take offense at her words. I, on behalf of the Qin Family, accept this marriage..."

However, before the Qin Family Great Elder could finish, just then, a roar suddenly entered the hall from outside the council hall.

"My father may be absent, but I, Qinchuan, am still alive!"

"Since when did my sister\'s marriage become your decision to make?!"

A cold rebuke thundered like shocking thunder, momentum roaring, charging into the hall and ringing in the ears of all!

Afterward, a tall young man in a blood robe, holding a blood-stained long spear, strode into the hall!

His gaze was piercing, his eyes radiantly bright. Though only sixteen years of age, his face was resolute beyond measure.

The blood robe he wore was not originally the color of blood but the color of snow-white. It presented as blood-colored now because it had been dyed by fresh blood!

That blood robe was tattered, and the blood on it had not even dried completely.

And on the blood-stained long spear he was holding, there still were spots of blood.

The newcomer was the Qin Family\'s Asura!

Qinchuan!

"Brother!"

Upon seeing the young man in the blood robe, Qin Xiaoyu\'s eyes immediately reddened, and she quickly moved toward Qinchuan, hugging his blood-stained body and finally crying out in grievance.

In the Qin Family, the only one she could rely on was her brother.

"It\'s alright now, Xiaoyu. Your brother is back."

Looking at the young girl, Qinchuan\'s stern gaze suddenly softened a great deal, as he affectionately stroked her head.

But when his gaze noticed the swollen palm imprints on both of Qin Xiaoyu\'s cheeks, Qinchuan\'s action suddenly stiffened, and then he trembled, the gentleness in his eyes exploding into endless rage.

He slowly crouched down, lifted the spear with his right hand, and softly stroked Qin Xiaoyu\'s swollen cheek with his left hand, then wrapped his arms around the back of Qin Xiaoyu\'s head, pulling her into his embrace, and slowly closed his eyes.

After closing them for a short while, Qinchuan abruptly opened his eyes. In his gaze, tenderness faded away, leaving only boundless indifference and violence!

"Three years ago."

"My father, to resolve a family crisis, braved the Spirit Martial Great Tomb, hoping to find a lifeline for our family. He never returned."

"Afterward, I, Qinchuan, alone and unaided, stormed into Black Wind Stronghold, a threat to our Qin Family\'s existence. I plotted and killed one hundred and eight bandits with nothing but my life and will! That night, I was slashed thirty-six times, crawling back to the Qin Family, favored by destiny, fortunate to survive!"

"For these past three years, I have gone from battle to battle for the family, slaying countless enemies. Today, though the Qin Family faces oppression from the Zhao Family, why have they never killed their way into our Qin Family?"

"Why?!"

Qinchuan uttered slowly, his tone chilling, his gaze fixed on the Qin Family\'s Great Elder.

The Great Elder\'s expression changed, speechless.

"Tell me, why?!"

Qinchuan\'s harsh gaze shifted away from the Great Elder as he surveyed around at the numerous Qin Family members and elders, and demanded an answer.

The surrounding crowd of the Qin Family also showed varying expressions, their eyes flickering, not daring to meet Qinchuan\'s gaze.

"None of you will speak, is that it?"

"I will tell you why!"

"Because the world calls me \'Qin Asura\'!"

"Thud!"

With a sudden roar, Qinchuan slammed the Iron Blood Long Spear into the ground, producing a muffled sound that shook the hearts of everyone present!

This dull thud, like thunder, seemed to contain boundless authority, causing all those present to shiver involuntarily, their hearts filled with trepidation!

Even Lin Que could not help but change his expression, looking toward the young man in the blood robe with eyes full of fear.

"While I was out shedding blood and battling for the family, you were back here bullying my younger sister?"

"You even planned to use my sister as a tool for marriage alliance, betrothing her to the Lin Family\'s degenerate who takes pleasure in tormenting young girls?"

"Who gave you the audacity to bully the sister of Qin Asura!?"

"Who gave you the audacity!?"

Qinchuan bellowed angrily, his icy gaze suddenly shooting towards the Great Elder sitting above, his eyes filled with endless chill!
