Chapter 16

Qin Feng escaped! He really escaped!

Moreover, he fled in a panic, like a puff of smoke, back to the Qin family, leaving behind He Zhengxiong, He Siyan, and the rest of the Qin family standing there, staring at each other in shock, all dumbfounded!

"Qin Feng, was he actually scared away by the beauty of the He family's young lady?"

This absurd thought suddenly arose in everyone's mind, but no one could understand it.

He Siyan, who was as beautiful as a fairy, would never tire anyone, even if they looked at her every day, year after year. How could someone be scared away by her beauty?

But this bizarre incident did happen!

And it happened in broad daylight, right before everyone's eyes!

And the one responsible for all this was none other than Qin Feng, the legendary figure who was once called a waste but today made a stunning comeback!

What a freak of nature!

"What the hell is going on?"

He Zhengxiong, the first to recover, his face flushed red, almost bleeding, was panting heavily. Of course, he was angry, and the fact that he didn't faint on the spot already showed his great composure.

He Siyan's beautiful eyes were now misty, but there was still a hint of confusion in her gaze, wondering why Qin Feng had treated her like this.

After all, being publicly abandoned was worse than being killed.

"Escaping from a public engagement? Is Qin Feng defying us? Where are the He family's disciples?" He Zhengxiong waved his hand and immediately rallied his family's forces.

"Here!"

"Let's go to the Qin family. I want to ask Qin Tianzheng face-to-face how he raised such a promising grandson!"

Qin Siming, who was still lingering to deal with the aftermath, looked embarrassed. Seeing the situation getting out of control, he stepped forward and clasped his fists. "Old Master He, please calm down. I believe there must be some misunderstanding here."

"Misunderstanding? Go to hell with your misunderstanding. Let Qin Tianzheng explain it to me face-to-face!"

He Zhengxiong, still furious, wouldn't listen to anything. He blew his beard and led He Siyan and a group of He family disciples in a grand procession to the Qin family to demand an explanation.

Qin Siming and the Qin family disciples, watching the He family group gradually disappear, sighed helplessly and had no choice but to follow.

"What is going on?"

...

Qin Feng returned home and immediately rushed into his small courtyard, ignoring the little girl Qin Yuyan, and locked the door tightly.

Qin Feng wasn't afraid of He Siyan, but of another woman—Yan!

The woman who had shattered his happy life in his previous life!

In his previous life, it was because of her that he died, and he was reborn with a strange illness, leading to his current state!

Clearly, she hadn't let him go!

Moreover, Qin Feng knew that Yan would eventually come for him, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon?

He Siyan looked exactly like Yan!

They were like twins, with the same eyes and voice. At that moment, Qin Feng felt his heart almost stop. In this strange world, he had endured so much hardship, just when he had found a way to cultivate and live freely, Yan appeared again.

"Haunting me? Did she also transmigrate?"

Qin Feng's mind gradually calmed down, and he began to think rapidly. But he quickly dismissed this idea because Yan in his previous life was just a corpse, without a soul.

Moreover, some later events made Qin Feng suspect that it might have been just a dream!

A dream cast by Yan, making him feel her presence, see her alive, and even hear her voice. But who was He Siyan? Why did she look exactly like Yan?

"Right, I should go to Old He and ask about He Siyan's background."

After making up his mind, Qin Feng immediately opened the door, leaped out of the courtyard, and rushed to Old He's residence. Qin Yuyan, seeing Qin Feng's mysterious behavior, was puzzled, not knowing what was wrong with him today.

At that moment, the front gate of the Qin family was kicked open, and the person who came was none other than He Zhengxiong, who had come to demand an explanation.

Under normal circumstances, even if he had a hundred lives, He Zhengxiong wouldn't dare to kick the gate of the Qin family, unless he was tired of living. But today was different because he had a valid reason! Plus, he was still furious, so he even kicked the gate of the Qin family.

After the gate was kicked open, a large group of He family members quickly rushed in but were blocked by the Qin family in the courtyard's training ground.

"He Zhengxiong, do you know where you are? How can you act so wildly here?"

Qin Xiaolian, the leader, had already learned the details from the Qin family disciples sent by Qin Siming and was waiting on the training ground for He Zhengxiong's arrival. Although the He family had a valid reason, He Zhengxiong's act of kicking the gate infuriated Qin Xiaolian, so he rebuked him.

He Zhengxiong's anger had subsided by now. Seeing the Qin family's training ground filled with more than twice as many people as his own, his confidence was clearly not as strong as before.

"Hmph, stop talking nonsense. Bring out Qin Tianzheng. I want to talk to him face-to-face."

When he said this, He Zhengxiong's tone was much calmer.

"You can't do that. My father is in seclusion. I can make decisions for the Qin family. Old Master He, please talk to me." Seeing that He Zhengxiong's anger had subsided, Qin Xiaolian became more polite, even changing his address to "Old Master He." He basically knew the whole story of what happened today. Now, it was just a matter of going through the motions. Moreover, since Qin Feng had won the match, the Qin and He families might form an alliance, so Qin Xiaolian didn't want to provoke He Zhengxiong.

"You can't do it. Go get your father. You can't explain things to me, a junior!" He Zhengxiong wagged his finger in front of Qin Xiaolian, putting on the airs of an elder, which made Qin Xiaolian somewhat helpless.

After all, they were a generation apart. Moreover, although the He family's power was average, He Zhengxiong's cultivation was far superior to his own, so he lacked the confidence to speak up.

Just as Qin Xiaolian was feeling awkward, a hearty laugh suddenly sounded behind him.

"Old He has arrived. Xiaolian, that's not right. Quickly invite the old brother in and offer him tea!"

The deep voice instantly spread across the entire training ground. Hearing this, He Zhengxiong immediately stepped forward and shouted, "Qin Tianzheng, you old man, you raised a fine grandson!"

"Haha, indeed, I raised a fine grandson. Otherwise, how could Old He you have sent your granddaughter here? I'm determined to have my grandson Qin Feng marry your little Yan, haha!"

He Siyan, who had been following He Zhengxiong, blushed upon hearing Qin Tianzheng's teasing words.

He Zhengxiong, however, stepped into the hall and immediately started cursing, "Hmph, you old man, get the tea ready for me. Also, bring out that little brat Qin Feng! Damn it, I want to ask him why he was scared away by my Yan, and why he fled from the engagement in public! What kind of grandson did you raise?"

Old Master Qin Tianzheng, after greeting the main figures of the He family, finally focused his gaze on He Siyan, examining her carefully.

At this moment, He Siyan was not wearing a veil, so her beauty was clearly visible.

"Indeed, she is a naturally beautiful woman. Such a beauty is rare, not just in Luoyang Town, but in the entire Yunqi Kingdom. What is my grandson thinking?"

Old Master Qin Tianzheng stared at He Siyan, puzzled.

"Could it be? Qin Feng doesn't like women and prefers men?"

This absurd thought suddenly popped into his mind, and Qin Tianzheng was startled. If that were true, the Qin family would lose face.

Thinking about this, Qin Tianzheng felt uneasy.

"Someone, quickly find that little rabbit Qin Feng!"

"Yes!"
