Chapter 3

Dismissal?

Qin Chen shook his head and smiled, saying, "Take me to see it!"

"Brother Chen, you are now..."

Before Qin Xinxin could finish his sentence, Qin Chen had already walked out of the door.

Looking at the coffin in the courtyard, a smile appeared on Qin Chen's face.

"Lift it up, follow me!"

Qin Xinxin was at a loss, not knowing what Qin Chen intended to do by carrying the coffin.

On the way, Qin Xinxin tried his best to persuade Qin Chen.

"Brother Chen, you survived a great calamity, rest first. The five elders can't do anything to the clan leader, after all, the clan leader has the highest cultivation!"

"Brother Chen, if you go, you'll only cause trouble for the clan leader..."

"Brother Chen..."

No matter what Qin Xinxin said, Qin Chen continued toward the meeting hall.

Walking to the main path of the front courtyard, a figure sobbing suddenly bumped into Qin Chen's arms.

"Sister Xin Yue!"

"Big Sister!"

Seeing the tall figure in a green robe, with a delicate and beautiful face like a lotus, but now with tears in her eyes, it was Qin Xin Yue.

Qin Xin Yue is the daughter of Qin Chen's second uncle, Qin Yuanshan, and also Qin Xinxin's elder sister.

The three of them have been very close since childhood, often getting into trouble and playing together.

"Sister, what happened? Who bullied you? I'll skin him alive!"

Qin Xinxin immediately said fiercely.

"Who else!"

At this moment, a middle-aged woman appeared in front of them.

"Second Aunt!"

"Mother!"

Seeing the person, Qin Xinxin shrank his neck, while Qin Chen gave a light bow.

The former Qin Chen, though a genius, still had some respect and fear for this second aunt.

But now, with the memories of his nine lives and nine deaths, his attitude and mindset were completely different.

The heavily made-up middle-aged woman frowned at Qin Chen's calm demeanor.

"It's all because of you!"

The middle-aged woman scolded, "Because you insulted Ling Feifei, not only did you get your Star Gate sealed, but now the Ling family demands compensation for her reputation loss, and the Chu family has cut ties with our Qin family!"

"Not only that, but you've also caused Xin Yue to be jilted by the Shen family!"

Jilted?

Qin Chen frowned,

Qin Xinxin immediately cursed, "Shen Yuan, that bastard! His Shen family is just a second-rate family in Lingyun City. If it weren't for our Qin family, his family would have been finished long ago. How dare he jilt my sister?"

"This marriage was agreed upon by the clan leader and Father after Shen Chengfeng, the head of the Shen family, begged and pleaded. Now they're kicking us when we're down, I'll go teach him a lesson!"

"Oh? Who wants to teach me a lesson?"

At this moment, a voice sounded from behind them.

Several figures walked out, led by a young man holding a feather fan, tall and handsome, with a smug smile on his face.

"Shen Yuan!"

Seeing this person, Qin Xinxin immediately flew into a rage and was about to rush forward.

"Qin Xinxin, I don't want to beat you, don't ask for trouble!"

Shen Yuan snorted, not even looking at Qin Xinxin, and walked toward Qin Chen.

"Qin Chen, you're still alive? Carrying a coffin, are you planning to die to prove your innocence?"

"Shen Yuan!"

Qin Xin Yue pulled Qin Chen behind her and stood up, shouting, "Brother Chen's matters are none of your business. Since your Shen family has jilted the marriage, our Qin family has no more ties with the Shen family. If you want to leave, do it quickly!"

"Xin Yue, why so angry?" Shen Yuan laughed, "Your foolish brother, instead of pursuing Chu Ningshi from the Chu family, had improper intentions toward Ling Feifei. He deserves what he gets!"

Shen Yuan immediately blocked Qin Chen's path and said with a smile, "Young Master Qin Chen, how does it feel to have your Star Gate sealed?"

In the past, Qin Chen was the first young genius of the Qin family, with a promising future after opening his Star Gate.

Now, with his Star Gate sealed, he was just a cripple. Shen Yuan had no reason to fear Qin Chen anymore. Thinking of the flattery he once showed Qin Chen, Shen Yuan felt nauseated, so he had to get it all back today.

"A good dog doesn't block the way, and a dog that blocks the way isn't a good dog!"

Qin Chen looked at Shen Yuan as if he were a three-year-old child and said,

"You...?"

Shen Yuan snorted, "Do you still think you're a prodigy? Qin Chen, you're no longer a genius. If you want to pass through here today, you can!"

"Go under my legs!"

Qin Xinxin immediately shouted, "Shen Yuan! Don't go too far, this is the Qin family!"

"So what if it's the Qin family? The Ling and Chu families have joined forces, and our Shen family is part of it. Your Qin family is about to be finished!" Shen Yuan laughed, looking at Qin Chen and the others with a superior attitude.

Qin Chen's Star Gate was sealed, making him a cripple, while Shen Yuan was a warrior who had opened three Star Gates to the Life Gate realm.

If Qin Chen refused today, Shen Yuan didn't mind teaching him a lesson before leaving the Qin residence.

After all, this guy only had a few more days to live.

"What if I don't?"

"If you don't, you die!"

Shen Yuan said firmly, "Either go under my legs or die, you choose!"

Hearing this, Qin Chen shook his head and said, "In my view, there's a third way!"

"Hmm?"

"That is, you die!"

As Qin Chen spoke, he took a step forward and threw a simple punch.

Bang...

This punch was unexpected, and Qin Chen had already recovered to the Fourth Gate Wound Gate realm.

The first three gates involve using spirit energy to impact the acupoints in the hands, arms, and legs, forming a vortex, known as the Three Gate realms.

Reaching the Fourth Gate Wound Gate realm means using spirit energy to open and strengthen the five organs, making them as tough as steel.

Qin Chen's punch contained the strength of his limbs and organs, equivalent to forty horsepowers.

Shen Yuan, being only at the Third Gate Life Gate realm, couldn't withstand it.

Bang...

The punch hit Shen Yuan's chest, and he immediately felt the world go dark. The smile on his face gradually faded.

"Our Qin family's children do not suffer the disgrace of being jilted. My sister, Qin Xin Yue, has not been jilted, only... widowed!"

Crack...

With a thud, Shen Yuan's body fell to the ground, lifeless.

Qin Chen clapped his hands, looked at the few servants carrying the coffin behind him, and said calmly, "Put Young Master Shen Yuan's body in the coffin and send it back to the Shen family!"

"Tell Shen Chengfeng that our Qin family's children do not accept jilting!"

After saying this, Qin Chen turned and left as if he had just done something as routine as eating or drinking.

At this moment, Qin Xin Yue and Qin Xinxin were completely stunned.
