Tycoon War God

”Lin Mu, stop!”

Hearing Lin Mu’s words, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.

Qin Hongshu even ran over, trying to stop him.

Qin Yan rushed forward and pulled Lin Mu back. ”What are you doing? Didn’t you say you’d be careful?”

Qin Yan was helpless. This man was simply too domineering. A single sharp word was enough to make him lash out.

”Brat, you dare to kill me?”

The young man on the ground finally struggled to his feet, glaring at Lin Mu with a ferocious expression. ”I am Qin Li of the Demon City Qin Family! A worthless cur like you, utterly disrespectful, dares to injure me? If it weren’t for my uncle’s sake, you’d already be a dead man!”

Qin Li’s gaze was filled with venom and murderous intent; clearly, he had no intention of letting Lin Mu go.

”Lin Mu, let me tell you the truth. I came from Demon City to inform you of something.” Qin Li said through clenched teeth, ”Someone from Demon City has taken a liking to Qin Luoli. My uncle has already made the decision to betroth her to that person, so from now on, you and her have nothing more to do with each other!”

BOOM!

Upon hearing Qin Li’s words, an overwhelming murderous aura erupted from Lin Mu.

In the next instant, Lin Mu appeared directly in front of Qin Li, his hand clamping around his neck. ”What! Did! You! Just! Say!”

In Lin Mu’s eyes, mountains of corpses and seas of blood churned, while the sun, moon, and stars collapsed. It was as if the apocalypse had arrived, carrying a terrifying aura capable of destroying the heavens and the earth.

”You...” Qin Li was terrified, choking out with difficulty, ”Let... go...”

”Lin Mu, let him go.”

At this moment, the young woman who had remained silent finally spoke. Her expression was calm as she looked at Lin Mu with arrogance. ”Considering your relationship with the Qin Family, I can overlook you injuring Qin Li.”

”However, we are here to inform you of this matter, not to seek your opinion.”

With her hands behind her back, Qin Youwei offered a faint smile. ”You may not understand what it means to be favored by that personage in Demon City—for you, for the Qin Family, and even for Qin Luoli. But let me tell you, from the moment Qin Luoli caught that person’s eye, you and she were already people from different worlds.”

”I hope for her sake, and for your own, that you will calm down.”

Qin Youwei’s words stunned everyone from the Qin Family. Qin Luoli had caught someone’s eye? The main branch from Demon City was here to force Lin Mu and Qin Luoli apart? This...

”Lin Mu, there’s no need for me to say that senior’s name, because you wouldn’t understand it even if I did,” Qin Youwei continued. ”But my uncle, even in the Martial Arts World, is a renowned figure. Demon City’s Qin Chuan, ranked twelfth on the Heaven’s List!”

Pride filled Qin Youwei’s face.

”Twelfth on the Heaven’s List!” Jin Fu’s expression changed drastically as he stepped out from the rear courtyard. ”You’re from the main branch?”

”Correct.” Qin Youwei nodded. ”You must be Jin Fu. You were one of Qin Wentian’s guardians. I’m surprised you’re still alive.”

Hearing her words, Jin Fu’s expression became incredibly grave. He never expected someone from the main branch to actually show up! And what’s more, they were here to break up the Young Master and Young Miss?

”Even if you are the main branch, you can’t just break up our Young Master and Young Miss!” Jin Fu said coldly. ”The Old Madam will never agree to this!”

”Whether she agrees or not is no longer up to any of you,” Qin Youwei said. ”I came here merely to inform you. Now, I have another important matter to ask you about.”

She looked at Jin Fu. ”Since you’re a Martial Artist, you must have heard of Master Lin, Lin Wudi, correct?”

”What do you want with him?” Jin Fu’s expression grew wary.

Qin Youwei’s face lit up with joy. ”You really know of him? Then this makes things simple,” she declared. ”My uncle heard that this Lin Wudi has considerable strength and believes he is qualified to become a servant of the Qin Family. Therefore, I came here to...”

CRACK!

Before Qin Youwei could finish, the crisp sound of breaking bone echoed. She whipped her head around in shock, her pupils shrinking.

Qin Li’s neck had been snapped!

And the one who snapped it was none other than Lin Mu!

”Lin Mu, what have you done?” Qin Youwei’s face drained of color. ”Do you have any idea what you’ve done? By killing Qin Li, not only will you die, but the entire Qin Family will be dragged down with you!”

”Shut up!”

Lin Mu suddenly appeared before her and viciously slapped her across the face. The immense force instantly swelled half her face, splitting her lip and revealing her teeth.

”You dare hit me?” Qin Youwei stared at Lin Mu in disbelief, shrieking, ”You little bastard, are you trying to die?!”

SLAP!

Lin Mu stepped forward and slapped her again, making her cry out in agony.

”You’re dead! I’ll kill you, you scumbag!”

SLAP!

”I...”

SLAP! SLAP! SLAP!

”No, stop... please stop hitting me...”

Qin Youwei covered her face and wept. She was terrified. This man named Lin Mu was like a mad dog, utterly unconcerned with the consequences. If she kept cursing him, she would surely die right here.

Lin Mu stepped on her face, his eyes filled with boundless killing intent. His voice was a low rumble, like the sigh of a Demon King. ”Bitch, do you know why I’m not killing you?”

Lin Mu looked down at her coldly. ”I’m sparing your worthless life for one reason: to take a message back. In a few days, I, Lin Mu, will personally visit Demon City! Before then, if anyone dares touch a single hair on Luoli’s head, I will annihilate their entire clan!”

”Get lost!”

With a sudden, violent stomp, he kicked Qin Youwei out of the Qin Family Ancestral House.

”Ah!”

A scream of agony echoed from outside. Qin Youwei’s face was twisted in pain.

”I’ll kill you! I’ll definitely kill you! Lin Mu, just you wait! You just wait!”

Qin Youwei struggled to get up, feeling as if every bone in her body was about to shatter.

Since she was a child, she had been the favored prodigy of the Qin Family. Who didn’t treat her with the utmost respect? But today, she had been slapped, her face stomped on, and threatened by a mere live-in son-in-law! Even Qin Li, a descendant of her own Qin Family, had been killed! What audacity! The absolute gall!

Qin Youwei resolved to make Lin Mu pay a terrible price.

”AH!”

Just as Qin Youwei was seething internally, a dark shadow smashed down on top of her.

It was Qin Li’s corpse.

”Take this trash with you. And if you bark one more time, I’ll kill you too!”

Back inside the Qin Family Ancestral House, everyone stared in shock at the enraged Lin Mu. No one dared to speak.

This time, even Qin Yan didn’t dare to try and stop him. Even she felt that Qin Youwei had brought this on herself. The Demon City Qin Family had gone too far.

”Young Master,” Jin Fu said with an inward sigh, ”the Old Madam has awoken. She sent me to bring you to her.”

”Alright.”

As soon as Lin Mu entered the Old Madam’s room, he saw her struggling to sit up in bed.

”Lin Mu... you’ve come?”

Having not seen her for a while, Lin Mu noticed the Old Madam looked even more aged and frail. Her skin was ashen, her body withered, and she looked as if her time was short.

”Quick, come over here. Let your grandmother take a good look at you.”

Hearing this, Lin Mu felt a complex mix of emotions as he slowly walked over and took her dry, ice-cold hands.

”Old Madam...”

The Old Madam cracked a smile, caressing Lin Mu’s face. Her voice was hoarse but full of affection as she said, ”My dear boy, you’ve been wronged.”
