Invincible cultivation strengthens: my son is a troublemaker

"Heh heh, still so stubborn on the brink of death. As long as I do a clean job, what can your father do without evidence?"

The old man sneered coldly.

He was also secretly observing the surroundings. Whether or not anyone was around, he had to make sure to pin this on the Jiang Family.

After all, walls have ears.

Perhaps mountains do too.

"It seems you really are from the Jiang Family!"

Qin Zi's face turned grim, the words "no evidence" were extremely sensitive to him.

The Jiang Family suspected that he killed Jiang Shennong, but without evidence, they couldn't force his father to hand him over.

So this time, the Jiang Family also planned to assassinate him, leaving no evidence, tooth for tooth, leaving his father helpless.

Such reasoning was entirely plausible.

After all, his only enemies right now were the Jiang Family and the Lu Family, and the Lu Family clearly wouldn't dare send people to assassinate him at this moment.

As for his father...

He would never dream of thinking that!

"Kid, it doesn't matter who I am anymore, because even if you know, you'll only take the secret to hell."

The old man said leisurely:

"So, you might as well think about what you want after death... Do you want to be pulverized to ashes, or thrown into a river to feed the fish?"

Qin Zi's face suddenly turned pale, he asked, "Can you leave my body intact? I don't want to die in an ugly way."

"You're already dead and you still want to look good? That's wishful thinking!" The old man sneered, then roared: "On your way!!"

Swish!

He slashed with a sword, instantly unleashing a beam of light a thousand meters long, weaving with six types of Law, like a celestial river cascading down.

"Ah!!"

At this moment, Qin Zi suddenly let out a furious roar, and his whole body glowed with golden light, as if he had turned into a blazing flame.

Buzz!

A crimson long spear shot out from the flames, its style majestic and dragon-like, with golden runes etched on its surface, exuding an Emperor's majestic aura, sharp and piercing!

"Go!!"

Qin Zi shouted, the spear transforming into a crimson Fire Dragon, carrying an indomitable energy of destruction, crashing toward the sword light.

"Is this... an Imperial Artifact?!"

The old man, feeling that imposing and domineering aura, his scalp tingled, then his eyes emitted a dazzling light!

Greed.

Sprouted in his heart.

He originally thought he had no more pursuits in life, just enjoying his job as a killer, living out his old age in solitude.

But upon seeing this spear, the flame of ambition burned fiercely in his once-calm heart.

That was ambition!!

Imperial Artifacts are crafted by Realm Emperor experts, not only incredibly destructive but often containing their profound insights.

And it's not every Realm Emperor who can craft an Imperial Artifact, it requires a very powerful Realm Emperor.

So the insights contained in an Imperial Artifact are extremely precious, and very attractive to many Realm Emperor experts.

Thus, he was tempted.

"Boom!"

At this moment, the Fire Dragon collided with the sword light, piercing through the thousand-meter sword light, then rushed toward the old man.

"Not good!"

The old man's face changed drastically. Under the terrifying killing intent of the Imperial Artifact, he didn't dare to resist head-on and could only dodge.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

The Fire Dragon chased the old man, looping in the sky like a rollercoaster, drawing red lines.

But gradually, the Fire Dragon began to weaken, its surface flames dwindling, revealing the long spear within.

"Ha ha ha, I knew it! No matter how strong the Imperial Artifact, it needs its owner's strength as support, and your cultivation is too weak!"

The old man laughed heartily.

However, just then, Qin Zi's body burst into light, his hair turning golden, and quickly transformed.

"Boom!"

Simultaneously, the Fire Dragon suddenly expanded, its speed drastically increasing, and collided with the old man.

"Bang!"

The old man's body was knocked back by the Fire Dragon's head, and in the next moment, the crimson long spear flew from the dragon's head, stabbing toward his body.

"Pfft!"

The old man unleashed his potential, rapidly retreating, but was still half-impaled by the spearhead, the Imperial Artifact's killing power invading his body.

"Ah!!"

He let out a scream, red light bursting from his body, as if spurting blood, that was the energy of slaughter!

"Crackle!"

Around him flickered six kinds of Law light, like lightning twining around his body, continuously wearing down the slaughter energy within him.

"Kid, just wait and see!!"

He roared, then ran without looking back, seemingly heavily injured and needing urgent healing.

After he disappeared.

Qin Zi's face suddenly turned pale, his hair reverting to black, and the crimson long spear dulled and returned to his body.

A wave of weakness hit him.

To wield the crimson long spear in battle, he had exhausted all his internal energy—even his master's reserves!

"The combat's disturbance might attract powerful beings, we're very weak now, we must leave here quickly."

Ye Lingshuang said anxiously.

"Hmm!"

Qin Zi nodded, then summoned his last strength, flying toward the distance, quickly disappearing over the horizon.

Shortly after he left.

A tall figure in a black cloak slowly emerged from a hidden corner of a hillside.

It was Qin Chuan!

In his hand, he held a fist-sized crystal stone, crystal clear like a diamond.

Inside the crystal stone, countless scenes played back, like a movie.

It was indeed the scene where Qin Zi had just summoned the Imperial Long Spear, heavily wounding the old assassin.

The scenes were smooth and clear, captured from perfect angles, with strong visual impact, letting one feel the grand and fierce presence of the Imperial Artifact even through the scenes, its wild aggression enough to enthrall many.

"Tsk tsk tsk, just a little kid in the early Saint Realm wielding it can heavily damage a Saint of the Sixth Heavenly Layer, who wouldn't want such an Imperial Artifact?"

Qin Chuan chuckled ruefully.

A man without sin, but possessing a treasure is his crime.

Though my unworthy son now has some backing, compared to the allure of an Imperial Artifact, he's still just a common man!

As soon as news of Qin Zi having an Imperial Artifact spreads, surely many strong beings will take risks to pursue and kill Qin Zi.

Among them surely there will be Ninth Heavenly Layer Saints.

By then, his cultivation can skyrocket up to the Ninth Heavenly Layer, then usher in the Emperor Tribulation, waiting to become an Emperor!

What a perfect plan.

As for how to spread this news... that's another problem.

Even though he recorded evidence with a Memory Stone that Qin Zi possesses an Imperial Artifact, spreading it won't be easy.

He can't just buy a heap of Memory Stones, make tens of thousands of copies, and distribute them for free everywhere, can he?

That would cost too much.

And even if he really replicated tens of thousands, it still wouldn't be enough, because people are selfish, everyone wants the Imperial Artifact for themselves. When one gets a Memory Stone, the first thought isn't to tell others, but to hide the info and quietly hunt Qin Zi by themselves.

This is the normal psychology.

Therefore, spreading this news is difficult, letting him spread it alone, might bankrupt him entirely.

Because he has no influence or channels!

"However, I don't have... but the Jiang Family does." He squinted, a crafty smile forming at the corner of his mouth.

He believed that once the Jiang Family knew about this, they would gladly spread it, causing everyone to hunt Qin Zi together.

Moreover.

He could take this "Whistleblower" Memory Stone to the Jiang Family, and if nothing goes wrong, the Jiang Family would have to reward him handsomely...

This says: I used you, and took your money.

And this also says: Eat the plaintiff, eat the defendant.
