Warning! A hidden dragon has emerged!

The acupuncture treatment is complete.

Qin Quan gently placed his palm on Jiang Yao's chest, and the gentle pure yang spiritual energy slowly flowed into her body.

Two streams of air were deliberately separated.

A surge of energy rushed straight to my mind, while a surge of energy flowed downwards and gathered in my heart.

This tactic is like using fishing to lure the enemy.

Sensing the pure spiritual energy, the hidden Mother-Child Spirit-Devouring Gu couldn't resist reappearing and frantically devouring the nutrients that were offered to them.

Qin Quan seized the opportunity, his hands moving with lightning speed, and two golden needles shot out in an instant.

The mother and child spirit-devouring gu, which had just been devouring spiritual energy, were pinned to their original positions by the golden needles and could not move.

"Xiao Jin, Xiao Die, let's do it!"

At a command, the Golden Cicada and the Illusionary Butterfly launched their attack, rapidly advancing along the pre-reserved meridian channels and instantly arriving at the hiding place of the Soul-Devouring Gu.

The Illusion Butterfly flapped its wings first, and a fine, hallucinogenic mist instantly spread out, precisely enveloping the two Soul-Devouring Gu.

The Gu worms, which had been struggling frantically, froze on the spot, their movements slowed down, as if they were drunk and unconscious, and they completely lost their ability to resist.

The cicada followed closely behind, opening its large mouth full of serrated teeth, and swallowed the mother Gu in Jiang Yao's mind in one gulp, completely annihilating it as it chewed.

The two Gu worked in perfect harmony, without any hesitation, and in an instant moved to the chest, devouring and killing the remaining offspring Gu.

The hidden danger has been completely eliminated!

Qin Quan quickly raised his hand and removed all the golden needles, no longer suppressing the meridians. The abundant pure yang spiritual energy poured into Jiang Yao's body, flowing through her unobstructed meridians to nourish her damaged organs and soul.

After a long while, Jiang Yao finally let out a long sigh of relief and slowly opened her eyes.

A trace of color returned to her pale and haggard face, and the pain in her eyes vanished. She looked weakly at Qin Quan and smiled faintly.

"Little brat, I...I feel much better, it doesn't hurt anymore."

"The Mother-Child Soul-Devouring Gu has been completely eliminated. After a few days of rest, it will be able to recover to its peak condition."

Qin Quan took out ten artificial mid-grade purple spirit stones from his treasure bag and handed them to her.

"You stay here and rest to recover. I'm going out for a bit."

"it is good."

Jiang Yao nodded obediently, gripped the spirit stone tightly, closed her eyes, and circulated her cultivation technique to repair the damage to her body.

Qin Quan got up, pushed open the door, and briefly explained the situation inside the house to Xia Ruoxi before heading straight to the Qin family's old residence with Zhang Qingshun.

……

The Qin family in Kyoto.

They are considered one of the top elite families in other provinces, with deep roots and wide-ranging interests, and their members are spread across various fields of martial arts and business.

However, in the capital city where powerful and wealthy people were everywhere, the Qin family was not even considered important.

They can't even get close to the second ring road; they can only eke out a living between the third and fourth ring roads.

In terms of background and power, they are not even as good as the recently defeated Jiang family.

The inner courtyard of the Qin family mansion.

Fifth Master Qin gripped his grandson Qin Yi's wrist tightly, putting on a kind expression as he soothed him in a low voice.

"Xiao Yi, you've just recovered from your serious illness, so rest at home. That girl Jiang Yao is destined to be yours, and no one can break this marriage up."

But Qin Yi seemed possessed, trembling all over, his eyes unfocused, and muttering incoherently.

The battle of Jincheng had etched Qin Quan's demonic nature into his very bones, becoming an indelible psychological shadow.

Even after many days, he still feels a chill run down his spine whenever he thinks of that scene.

"Grandpa, Qin Quan is terrifying! Even you are no match for him! By forcibly taking his people and scheming against him, we are simply courting death!"

Qin Yi's voice trembled, filled with despair.

Master Qin, however, had long since put aside the humiliation of defeat, his face full of arrogance and confidence.

"What are you panicking about? This is Kyoto, under the Emperor's nose, where the laws are strict. No matter how arrogant Qin Quan is, he wouldn't dare to commit violence here!"

He raised his hand and patted his chest, his eyes filled with greed.

"Moreover, our Qin family has already boarded the ship of the Hidden Immortal Sect. As long as you marry Jiang Yao and become an inner disciple of the Hidden Immortal Sect, then, let alone a mere Qin Quan, the entire Dragon Kingdom will have to give our Qin family some face!"

"What Fifth Master said is true."

At that moment, a cold, hoarse voice suddenly rang out.

A hunchbacked old man in a black robe slowly walked out, surrounded by a chilling aura and exuding a sinister, isolated presence.

He glanced sideways at the Qin family grandfather and grandson, his tone extremely arrogant.

"The foundation of my Hidden Immortal Sect is beyond the comprehension of ordinary families. All ten elders of the sect are Golden Core experts. Even the powerful forces of Flowing Gold Valley have to show us respect and treat us as honored guests."

As he spoke, the old man in the black robe became increasingly arrogant.

"Two-thirds of the top wealthy families and business empires in the Dragon Kingdom are secretly controlled by our Hidden Immortal Sect. The Hidden Dragon and the War Department may seem to wield immense power, but if we so choose, we can cut off their economic lifeline at any time!"

boom!

These words struck Qin Wuye and Qin Yi like a thunderclap, causing them to gasp and their expressions to change drastically.

Controlling two-thirds of the Dragon Kingdom's economic lifeline?

This is no hidden sect; it is clearly a terrifying force that can control everything.

At this moment, the last trace of concern in their hearts completely disappeared, leaving only fervor.

"Wow, you've got quite the big mouth. You're bragging in broad daylight, aren't you afraid of biting off more than you can chew?"

A mocking voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard, instantly shattering the arrogant atmosphere inside.

Qin Quan led Zhang Qingshun slowly into the Qin family compound, his demeanor composed, but his eyes held a chilling coldness as he quietly observed the three people before him.

"Qin Quan! How dare you trespass on my Qin family's property!"

Master Qin's expression changed drastically, and he panicked instantly.

He hurriedly pulled Qin Yi behind the black-robed elder, saying in a panic:

"Deacon Huang, this is the man who killed Elder Yuanlong! Please take immediate action to suppress him!"

Deacon Huang looked up at Qin Quan, paused for a moment, then burst into an extremely arrogant laugh, his eyes filled with the excitement of a hunt.

"Hahaha, you've got the road to heaven but not the gate to hell! I was just looking for you, and you've delivered yourself right to my doorstep. Today I'll capture you and take you back to the main altar to claim credit with the sect leader!"

"Oh? You're taking me to the Hidden Immortal Sect's headquarters?"

Qin Quan was not afraid at all; on the contrary, his eyes lit up, and he pretended to be curious.

Everyone knows of the existence of the Hidden Immortal Sect, but no one knows where its headquarters is located.

For thousands of years, even with the Kunlun Immortal Sect's all-out investigation, they have never found anything.

If he could use this person to trace the clues to the Hidden Immortal Sect's lair, he could directly send a message to his master and Kunlun Immortal Tracks, and eradicate this malignant tumor that plagues the world in one fell swoop.

In the blink of an eye.

Qin Quan already had a plan in mind.

However, he also knew that the Hidden Immortal Sect was full of experts, and that it would be extremely dangerous for him to rush in alone, even with nine golden cores. He could not act rashly and had to make a careful plan.

Seeing his calm expression, Deacon Huang assumed it was just a feigned composure, scoffed, and spoke arrogantly.

"Stop pretending. You killed Elder Yuanlong, and the sect leader has already listed you as a kill target. As long as I take your head, I can get a thousand mid-grade spirit stones!"

"A thousand pieces?"

Qin Quan shook his head with feigned disdain and chuckled:

"Your sect leader is far too stingy. How about this: tell me the address of the Hidden Immortal Sect's headquarters, and I'll give you two thousand mid-grade spirit stones, how about that?"

"You're talking nonsense!"

Deacon Huang scoffed, "What does two thousand mid-grade spirit stones even mean? How dare a junior like you boast about that?"

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Quan casually waved his hand.

Splash!

A total of six hundred mid-grade purple spirit stones poured out, covering the entire courtyard.

An intensely rich purple aura instantly illuminated the Qin family mansion, and the pure spiritual energy swept through every corner like a gust of wind.
