Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan!

Chapter 519 Beauty Calamity ”The Qin Clan!”

Chong Sheng paused briefly, recalling the clan that had dominated throughout tens of thousands of years. ”One of the most ancient and influential clans in the entire Western Region.” ”A clan whose roots run so deep that even the so-called righteous and demonic factions have to give them face” ”If there was a single clan whose influence went beyond their territories and expanded across the continent, then it is definitely the Qin Clan!”

Chong Sheng continued. ”With their skill, they are easily able to infiltrate any organization they want and influence it from within. No one knows just how far their hand has stretched, but everyone knows that nothing is truly safe before the Qin Clan.” ”So most clans and sects donʼt even dare go against them. Instead, they try to maintain the best possible relationship with the Qin Clan. After all, they understand that fighting them isnʼt just fighting a single force...” ”...but countless hidden ones standing behind them.” ”And who knows-perhaps even among themselves, they may have already infiltrated. There is simply no way of knowing.” ”So, many chose to remain on good terms with the Qin Clan... including the Demonic Faction”

A pause.

Then his eyes narrowed slightly. ”I donʼt know why you asked me about Qin Lingxiao, but let me warn you, she isnʼt someone you can handle.”

Chong Sheng said this plainly.

Not out of concern for Bai Zihan-

But because of the sheer terror that the name Qin Lingxiao represented.

Chong Shengʼs gaze remained fixed on Bai Zihan.

For a moment, he seemed to hesitate, as if deciding whether to say what came next.

Then he let out a slow breath. ”You donʼt understand the terror of offending that woman. Let me tell you something”

His voice turned colder. ”About fifty years ago...” ”A young heir from one of the top clans in the Western Region took an interest in Qin Lingxiao.”

A faint sneer appeared on his lips. ʼInterestʼ would be putting it lightly. ”He tried to force himself into her life. Harassed her and tried to force a marriage.” ”He believed that with his background, it was impossible for Qin Lingxiao to do anything to him.”

Chong Sheng glanced at Bai Zihan.

Then asked quietly- ”You know what she did?”

A brief pause.

Even now, there was a trace of disbelief in his expression. ”When I first heard about it... even I was surprised. Even demonic cultivators are not as ruthless as her”

He let out a quiet scoff. ”If it were anyone else, they would have simply beaten that fool half to death.

She was more than capable of that.” ”Or crippled him to vent their anger.”

Chong Shengʼs eyes darkened. ”But Qin Lingxiao... thatʼs not what she did.” ”She didnʼt touch him.”” ”She went after his clan-the very foundation of his confidence.”

Bai Zihanʼs gaze sharpened.

If it was one of the top clans in the Western Region, then it was certain they possessed multiple Earth Immortals and even Supreme Immortals.

They were undoubtedly far stronger than the current Bai Clan.

Chong Sheng continued, his tone steady, almost clinical. ”At first... no one noticed anything unusual.”

He paused briefly. ”That clan was known for its unity.” ”The Clan Leader and the core Elders had stood together for centuries.” ”They cultivated together. Fought together. Rose to power together.” ”There was trust between them that outsiders could never shake.”

A faint breath escaped him. ”But then... it all began to change.”

Bai Zihanʼs eyes narrowed slightly.

Chong Shengʼs gaze darkened. ”And strangely enough... they all started fawn over...” ”Qin Lingxiao!”

Chong Sheng continued. ”It seems she somehow captured every one of their hearts including those who already had wives.” ”The Clan Leader-one of the strongest figures in the Western Region-also found himself enchanted by her.”

Chong Sheng let out a quiet scoff. ”And what do you think happens when powerful men realize theyʼve all fallen for the same woman?”

His eyes turned colder. ”Every single one of them wanted to possess her.” ”And men...” ”...become the most irrational creatures when it comes to the woman they believe they love.” ”They would abandon loyalty. Break brotherhood. Even betray their own blood.” ”Especially when their minds were already being influenced.” ”All they could think about... was her.” ”They stopped caring about anything else.”

Their wives, naturally, could not tolerate such madness. ”Many of their wives chose to leave.” ”Some demanded separation.” ”Some walked away without a word.” ”Not all left...” ”But most did.”

And with that-

The final restraints on those men were gone. ”They no longer had anything grounding them.” ”Nothing to pull them back to reason.” ”So what did they do?” ”They fought.” ”For her. For her attention. For her acknowledgment.”

Chong Shengʼs voice turned cold. ”They began trying to prove who was more worthy.” ”Who deserved her.” ”Who had the right to stand beside her.”

Bai Zihan remained silent.

Chong Sheng continued. ”Their unity shattered.”

What followed was inevitable. ”They all believed their love was genuine.” ”They believed the others were unworthy.” ”That the others should step aside.” ”But no one stepped aside.” ”Not even when the Clan Leader tried to use his authority.”

His lips curled slightly. ”If anything that only accelerated the collapse.” ”The moment a leader loses rationality...” ”...the entire clan begins to rot.” Chong Shengʼs gaze locked onto Bai Zihan. ”War broke out.” ”Not against an external enemy...” ”But within.”

His voice grew heavier. ”Golden Immortals clashed.” ”Their own territory became a battlefield.” ”Blood filled their halls.” ”Trust turned into blades.”

Bai Zihanʼs fingers tightened faintly. ”And that young heir...”

Chong Shengʼs tone grew quieter. ”He watched everything.” ”At first, he didnʼt understand. He thought it was coincidence.” ”Misfortune.” ”But then...” ”He learned the truth.” ”That every one of those men...” ”...had fallen for the same woman he tried to claim.”

He was furious at first.

Enraged.

But then- Realization set in.

Something was wrong. ”As the clan fell apart...” ”As blood filled the halls...” ”As his own parents were dragged into the conflict...”

His voice lowered further. ”He began to understand.”

A long silence followed. ”Qin LIngxiao was taking revenge.”

Chong Sheng exhaled slowly. ”And only then did he realize who he had offended.”

But by then it was far too late. ”His clan which had stood for thousands of years collapsed within months.” ”Elders died.” ”Foundations shattered.” ”And finally even his father fell.”

A faint pause. ”She let him live to witness everything. To know the consequence of offending her.”

Chong Shengʼs eyes darkened. ”And when it was over even he couldnʼt bear it.”

The implication was clear.

He took his own life, blaming himself for everything that occured. ”Because it was his actions that led to the destruction of his clan.”

Chong Shengʼs voice turned cold. ”She didnʼt destroy them by force. She made them destroy themselves.”

Silence fell completely. ”And that is what makes her terrifying”

Chong Sheng let out a quiet breath.

He heard about this when he was still rising-when he was struggling to ascend to Supreme

Immortal.

And when he heard everything, he has to acknowledge her. ”I never met her personally but I heard the rumors that she possessed a beauty capable of toppling empires.”

He gave a faint scoff. ”At first, I thought it was exaggerated.” ”But after hearing this, I realized there was truth to it.” ”After all, no matter how powerful she is without sufficient beauty, she couldnʼt have driven those Golden Immortals into madness.”

There was a trace of something strange in his eyes.

Not fear alone-

But recognition.

She was willing to go that far to destroy an entire clan simply because one person offended her.

But that is the way of this world. When you offend the powerful, you donʼt just pay with your life.

Your family, your clan. Everyone connected to you pays the price. ”Her beauty is said to be a calamity. That one would lose their mind and willingly become her slave.” ”And it doesnʼt seem to be an unfounded rumor.”

Chong Sheng said quietly. ”And all of that was when she had just stepped into the Immortal Realm.”

A brief pause. ”Now?”

He looked at Bai Zihan. ”She must be far more terrifying”

Bai Zihan listened in silence.

He already understood how terrifying Qin Lingxiao was.

He had experienced it himself.

Without the System-

He might not have escaped either. Not to mention-

She hadnʼt even used her true appearance.

She had only used Yu Feiyanʼs face. Perhaps-

If she had revealed her real face...

Even he might not have resisted.

Bai Zihanʼs eyes narrowed slightly. ”Do you know what her weakness is?”

Chong Sheng shook his head. ”Perhaps if you could fight her one-on-one, you might stand a chance” ”But that would require at least Earth Immortal cultivation or higher.”

A pause.

Then his voice dropped. ”But with her ability, there is no need to fight.”

His gaze locked onto Bai Zihan. ”You lose the moment you see her face.”
