Rebellious Old Servant: From Gatekeeper to Immortal Emperor

Chapter 36 Physique Fusion, Becoming a Discarded Pawn

Without hesitation, Qin Xiao quickly searched the bodies of the Wang family members, then found a horse and rode back to the family.

On the way, Qin Xiao made a surprising discovery.

Perhaps because of its similar effect to the Blood Burning Body, the newly acquired lower-level mortal body Blood Battle Body has actually fused into the Blood Burning Body.

In an instant, he could feel that his Blood Burning Body had become much more powerful.

While burning through the same amount of lifespan, the combat power gained increased dramatically out of thin air!

"It's amazing that similar constitutions can fuse together."

Qin Xiao was pleasantly surprised.

The lower-level mortal body is actually not very useful to Qin Xiao. However, it is quite useful for fusion, and it is much more useful than the Blood Battle Body.

More importantly, seeing that the quality of the Blood Burning Body could actually be improved, Qin Xiao suddenly had a guess.

If one day I could obtain a sacrificial physique again and integrate it into my Blood Burning Physique, wouldn't that allow my superior mortal physique to advance to an even higher level?

Thinking about this, Qin Xiao couldn't help but feel curious.

However, he also knew that obtaining a similar physique again would not be so simple.

Qin Xiao, however, was unaware of this.

When he rushed back to the Su family home, covered in dust from his journey.

The two Wang family warriors who escaped earlier had already sent information about what happened at the mine to their family via carrier pigeon!

In the main hall of the Wang family.

"My son, my son!"

A dignified middle-aged man in a purple robe slumped in a grand chair, tears welling in his eyes, his hands trembling as he looked at the secret letter, sobbing uncontrollably.

This man was none other than Wang Tongxuan, the head of the Wang family and Wang Shijie's biological father!

"What?! Young Master is in trouble!"

"Master, what has happened!"

"What on earth happened? The patriarch is the hope of our Wang family, how could something have happened to him!"

Below, a group of Wang family elders, seeing the family head's reaction, became extremely anxious and asked loudly.

"Elders, Shijie is dead. Not only him, but also the clansmen he brought to the Su family's mine were killed by Qin Xiao, the old dog of the Su family!"

Wang Tongxuan suddenly raised his head, veins bulging on his forehead, eyes bloodshot, his teeth clenched so tightly they seemed to crack, and an overwhelming killing intent erupted from him:

"What do you think we should do?"

"What! How is this possible!" Upon hearing this, all the elders of the Wang family were shocked and widened their eyes in disbelief.

"That old dog from the Su family only became a martial artist half a month ago. How could he possibly have the strength to kill the young master? Absolutely impossible!"

"Patriarch, is there a misunderstanding? The young master possesses the strength to contend with someone at the mid-stage of the Bone Refining Realm. Does that old dog even deserve to harm him?"

The elders simply didn't believe Qin Xiao had that kind of strength, after all, they were all very clear about Wang Shijie's abilities.

"Hmph, see for yourselves!"

Wang Tongxuan's face was gloomy as he tossed the secret letter in his hand to the elders below.

An elder picked up the secret letter, and the other elders around him rushed over to read it together.

After reading the contents of the letter—

"The young master has actually been killed!"

"Damn it, our young master is the hope of our Wang family, and he actually died at the hands of an old guard dog."

"That old dog must be hiding a shocking secret, but he dared to kill the young master. He must be killed to avenge the young master!"

In an instant, the group of elders, their eyes bloodshot and veins bulging on their foreheads, became murderous, shouting for revenge.

However, in reality, many elders did not care that much about Wang Shaojie's death; instead, they were deeply greedy for Qin Xiao's opportunity.

What an incredible secret it must be that allowed an old man who had only become a martial artist a month and a half ago to experience such a rapid increase in strength.

If they could obtain it, the Wang family would surely rise to great heights.

Therefore, regardless of whether it was fair or personal, everyone was clamoring to immediately seek revenge against the Su family.

"Very well, since that's what you all say, then gather your forces and attack the Su family!"

"The Su family either obediently hand over that old dog Qin Xiao, or I, the patriarch, will annihilate the Su family to avenge my son!"

Wang Tongxuan clapped his hands together, his eyes filled with boundless killing intent and hatred.

He will tear the man who dared to kill his son to pieces!

At a single command, the Wang family warriors gathered and marched menacingly out of their homes toward the Su family.

The Wang family's large-scale mobilization, so openly made no attempt to conceal it, naturally did not escape the notice of other forces within the city.

In an instant, the entire power structure of Black Mountain City was alarmed.

The various forces in Black Mountain City were all filled with suspicion and uncertainty, wondering what had gotten into the Wang family that led almost all of their high-ranking members to the Su family.

This is like they're going to wipe out the whole family!

The Wang family and the Su family are both top-tier forces in Black Mountain City. If these two forces were to merge, the entire power structure of Black Mountain City would be rewritten.

In an instant, all the major powers quietly sent people to follow, wanting to find out what had happened.

The Su family's informants naturally noticed the Wang family's actions.

Immediately, the Su family's senior members also became tense.

The Su family's leaders were well aware that although their family had formed a marriage alliance with the Mountain and River Sect, their future was destined to soar to great heights.

However, the Wang family's foundation has always been much stronger than that of the Su family.

If the Wang family is truly determined to destroy the Su family, the Su family will not be able to withstand it.

In an instant, the Su family's top executives also gathered together in a panic.

In front of the Su family's gate.

The head of the Su family, Su Haoxuan, Su Qingxue, the two sisters Su Qingleng, and many elders all looked solemnly at the Wang family members who were approaching aggressively.

"Wang Tongxuan, what brings so many people from your Wang family here?!"

The head of the Su family looked at the Wang family members opposite him with a grim expression, his eyes filled with shock and anger as he stared at Wang Tongxuan and loudly questioned him.

The head of the Su family simply couldn't understand it. Although the Su family and the Wang family had always had some open and covert struggles, it shouldn't be that at this point in time, the Wang family would want to destroy the Su family.

"Enough with the nonsense, Su Haoyang!"

Wang Tongxuan stared coldly at the head of the Su family, gritting his teeth and roaring angrily:

"Your lackey Qin Xiao killed my son, Shijie! If you don't give me an explanation today, I will wipe out your entire family to avenge my son!"

This statement came out.

In an instant, everyone in the Su family was in an uproar.

"What? Wang Shijie was killed? And it was Qin Xiao who killed him?"

All the martial artists from the Su family stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

They all looked at Wang Tongxuan, wondering if he had lost his mind and was spouting nonsense.

Qin Xiao had only been a martial artist for a few days; how could he possibly kill Wang Shijie?

Although Wang Shijie is not as good as the two daughters of the Su family, he is also a well-known genius with a rudimentary mortal body and a blood battle physique, which is enough to suppress those in the Bone Refining Realm. How could Qin Xiao possibly deal with him?

Su Haoyang was so angry he laughed, and said angrily:

"Wang Tongxuan, if you want to find a reason to merge with my Su family, you need to find a good one. Qin Xiao only became a martial artist half a month ago, how could he possibly kill Wang Shijie!"

"Do you think everyone here is a fool? I swear on the honor of my Wang family, the murderer is none other than Qin Xiao, the gatekeeper of your Su family!"

Wang Tongxuan's gaze was icy, and he clenched his fists.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Su family trembled, staring at Wang Tongxuan in shock.

Could it be that what Wang Tongxuan said was true, and Qin Xiao really killed Wang Shijie?

Otherwise, how could Wang Tongxuan, as the head of the Wang family, possibly swear an oath in the name of his family?

But how could that be!

Almost all members of the Su family found it hard to accept.

The sisters, Su Qingxue and Su Qingleng, were filled with disbelief in their beautiful eyes.

They never imagined that the servant they had been able to manipulate so easily not long ago would suddenly possess such power.

This is really incredible.

Among the crowd, Su Haoxuan, the second mastermind of the Su family and the true mastermind behind Qin Xiao's killing of Wang Shijie, stared intently at Wang Tongxuan, his heart filled with shock:

"How is this possible? That old dog actually has such strength!"

Compared to the patriarch, Su Haoxuan knew better than anyone why the Wang family had clashed with Qin Xiao.

But he never expected that the Wang family would send out such a genius as Wang Shijie, only to have Wang Shijie die instead.

In an instant, Su Haoxuan realized that something was wrong.

It's hard to believe that a dog that was just a gatekeeper not long ago could possess such incredible strength in such a short time.

"What?!"

Su Haoyang, the head of the family, was unaware of the thoughts of those around him. When he heard Wang Tongxuan make his oath, his eyes were filled with surprise and doubt.

As a long-time enemy, he knew very well that Wang Tongxuan was not the kind of person who would joke about the family's reputation.

In other words, what Wang Tongxuan said is most likely true.

"But how is that possible? How could Qin Xiao possibly kill Wang Shijie!"

No matter what, Su Haoyang couldn't understand how Qin Xiao could possess such strength.

But then, Su Haoyang's eyes suddenly lit up:

"By the way, Qingxue's senior sister, Luo Yiren, said that Qin Xiao did her a great favor. Perhaps Qin Xiao received a reward from Luo Yiren and acquired a powerful trump card!"

Thinking of how much Luo Yiren valued Qin Xiao, Su Haoxuan immediately felt that he had guessed the truth.

They mistakenly believed that Qin Xiao killed Wang Shijie through a reward from Luo Yiren.

This explains why Qin Xiao was able to deal with Wang Shijie.

Su Haoyang, caught in the misunderstanding, immediately realized that he was in big trouble.

"Damn it, that lackey Qin Xiao, how dare he be so audacious! Even if he has the trump card to kill Wang Shijie, who gave him permission to kill Wang Shijie without my permission?!"

Immediately, Su Haoyang felt annoyed and filled with anger towards Qin Xiao.

He wasn't stupid; he had already realized that Wang Shijie was killed on the very day Qin Xiao was sent out on a family mission, which clearly indicated something was amiss.

It's possible that the Wang family is actually in the wrong.

The problem is that the young master of the Wang family has now died.

Under these circumstances, how could the Wang family possibly reason with the Su family?

Su Haoyang dared not vent his anger on the Wang family, because he knew very well that the Su family was no match for the Wang family, and that acting out now would only be detrimental to the Su family.

Therefore, all her resentment was directed at Qin Xiao. She was furious with Qin Xiao and even regretted that she shouldn't have promoted him.

Who would have thought that this servant would dare to cause such a big trouble for the Su family?

"Su Haoyang, I'm not going to waste my breath on you!"

Suddenly, Wang Tongxuan's gaze fell upon Su Qingxue and Su Qingleng, and a terrifying killing intent swept over them like a tidal wave.

In an instant, both Su Qingxue and Su Qingleng's expressions changed drastically.

Although they were all top geniuses with far superior aptitude to Wang Shijie, they were ultimately only martial artists at the Bone Refining Realm. How could they possibly withstand the killing intent of Wang Tongxuan, a powerhouse at the Marrow Refining Realm?

In an instant, both of them felt a sense of foreboding.

"Either you hand over Qin Xiao, or I'll let you experience the same thing—I'll crush your two genius daughters right now!"

Wang Tongxuan grinned maliciously, his terrifying killing intent blatantly locked onto the two young ladies in front of everyone present.

"That's right, Master, kill these two women. Only then can we avenge our young master!"

"One for two, the young master will surely die in peace."

"Kill them."

The Wang family members' eyes lit up, and they started shouting loudly.

The two daughters of the Su family are both renowned prodigies in Black Mountain City, and their talents far surpass those of their young master.

If the Wang family could take this opportunity to get rid of the sisters Su Qingxue and Su Qingleng, they would be making a huge profit.

"Stop! Wang Tongxuan!"

Upon hearing this, Su Haoyang's expression changed drastically, and he panicked completely, hurriedly saying:

"Qin Xiao murdered your Wang Shijie without my permission, instigating a conflict between our two families. His crime is utterly heinous!"

"I hereby declare this person expelled from the Su family. If your Wang family wishes to retaliate, go find Qin Xiao yourself. This has nothing to do with my Su family!"

Wow!

Su Haoyang said this.

Instantly, the entire audience erupted in uproar.

No one expected that Su Haoyang would choose to back down without hesitation at this moment, and even publicly announced that Qin Xiao would be expelled from the Su family.
