Chapter 1229: Kill All Who Refuse to Submit
The Family Head of the Du Family, the Family Head of the Chen Family, and the Family Head of the Tan Family furrowed their brows upon hearing this.
This young man is exceptionally powerful, able to instantly kill Xiong Yuda, who was at the Peak Realm. At the very least, he must be a Half-step Transformation Realm expert or in the Transformation Realm.
Only those with strength above the Half-step Transformation Realm can instantly kill someone like Xiong Yuda at the Peak Realm Early Stage.
Where did the Song Family find such an expert? No wonder Ji Hu wants to redistribute the shares of the Spirit Stone mine; it turns out the Song Family has backing from a powerful expert.
Though Ji Hu is a regional leader, his level of strength is also at the Peak Realm, which is no match for someone in the Half-step Transformation Realm or the Transformation Realm. Is he afraid this Transformation Realm expert will kill him?
The Family Head of the Du Family spoke up at this moment, "Our Du Family will never relinquish our share of the Spirit Stone mine. The head of the Xiong Family is already dead. Their ten percent share can be given to your Song Family."
The Family Heads of the Chen Family and the Tan Family also spoke up, "That's right, the Xiong Family's share can go to the Song Family, but our family's shares cannot be touched."
"If that's the case, then you three families can go accompany the Xiong Family." Qin Hao's tone was indifferent, as if he did not regard the three families at all.
The Family Head of the Du Family squinted his eyes slightly, looking at Qin Hao without any hint of fear on his face, "Don't think that just because you're strong, you can act recklessly. The Xiong Family may fear you, but our Du Family does not. The Commandery Princess's concubine is my younger sister."
This is the confidence upon which the Du Family relies. In Xijin City, the Du Family is second only to the Ji Family, and sometimes even the Ji Family has to give some face to the Du Family because the younger sister of the Du Family's head married the Commandery Princess of Xiaofeng County as a concubine.
West Jin State is under the jurisdiction of Xiaofeng County, which comprises nine states, with West Jin State being just one of them.
This shows how powerful and influential the Commandery Princess of Xiaofeng County is, something which Ji Hu, the leader of a state, cannot compare to.
Qin Hao sneered coldly, "So the Commandery Princess is quite impressive? Sorry, I've never heard of him."
The Family Head of the Du Family's expression changed. He turned to Ji Hu, "Leader of Ji Zhou, someone in your leader's mansion is insulting the Commandery Princess. What crime should this warrant?"
Ji Hu sneered internally when he heard him trying to drag him into the matter, "You fool, you don't know his strength, but wouldn't I? And you still want to drag me into this. Don't say the Commandery Princess, even the King wouldn't dare to offend him easily. The envoys of the Po Yuan Sect and the King are on their way here now."
Ji Hu said nothing, lowering his head as he drank wine; Ji Zhou and Ji Sitong sat beside him.
Seeing Ji Hu pretend not to hear, the Family Head of the Du Family's face darkened. "Ji Hu, you really are bold; do you even disregard the Commandery Princess now?"
Fine, very well. Once I report this to the Commandery Princess, we'll strip you of your position as state leader, and then the leader's mansion will belong to our Du Family.
Family Head of the Du Family: "I remember your words. Just wait for your death. Even if you are a Transformation Realm expert, the Commandery Princess won't spare you."
The Commandery Princess Zuo Yanming of Xiaofeng County is an expert at the Mid-stage of Transformation Realm, and there are several Half-step Transformation Realm and Early Stage of Transformation Realm experts in his mansion, making dealing with Qin Hao easy in the eyes of the Family Head of the Du Family.
Qin Hao is so young; how strong can he be? At most, he should only be at the Early Stage of Transformation Realm.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh"
Sword gleams flashed within the palace, and the Family Head of the Du Family was chopped into several pieces; the people he brought along were also slain by Qin Hao.
Until his death, the Family Head of the Du Family never imagined Qin Hao would dare to kill him. After all, he was the Commandery Princess's brother-in-law, and his sister was a concubine to the Commandery Princess.
The heads of the Chen Family and the Tan Family were stunned, looking at Qin Hao in disbelief.
This person was too arrogant, not even putting the Commandery Princess in his eyes?
Qin Hao looked at them indifferently, "Do you have any objections?"
The heads of the Chen Family and the Tan Family were filled with dread; they dared not have any objections after seeing the Family Head of the Du Family killed, so they quickly said, "We are willing to hand over all our shares of the spirit mines."
"If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave now."
Soon, only the members of the Song Family and the Ji Family were left in the palace. Looking at Qin Hao, Ji Hu said, "Master Hao, the envoys of the Po Yuan Sect and the King are on their way."
Qin Hao: "What are they coming here for? I don't have time to deal with them."
...
Ji Hu was taken aback, thinking, "Damn, you're too direct, big brother. These are the envoys of the Po Yuan Sect and the King."
But he didn't dare say any more.
Qin Hao got up and said, "Let's go."
Song Kai and Song Jiaxin hurriedly got up and followed behind him. After leaving the leader's mansion, Qin Hao said to Song Kai, "You handle the matters of the Xiong Family and the Du Family. Any issues?"
Song Kai said excitedly, "Rest assured, master; with the heads of the Xiong Family and the Du Family dead, there is no longer any threat."
Qin Hao nodded slightly, "Then you go ahead and take care of it."
"Thank you, master." Song Kai hurriedly gathered his people to start the takeover of the Xiong Family and the Du Family.
These were two of the prominent families in Xijin City. If the Song Family took them over, their power in Xijin City would increase exponentially.
Qin Hao and Song Jiaxin returned to the Song Family mansion.
In the leader's mansion, Ji Hu had initially intended to keep Qin Hao so there could be some interaction between Qin Hao and his daughter, Ji Sitong, but there was no opportunity.
Ji Hu sighed, wondering how to get his daughter together with Hao Tian.
Should he have his daughter take the initiative to visit in the middle of the night?
Damn, after all, my daughter is a daughter of the leader's mansion. What worries Ji Hu the most is if Qin Hao doesn't accept her, then it would be quite embarrassing.
Better wait and see, let the daughter get close tomorrow to gauge his reaction.
Song Family mansion.
Qin Hao and Song Jiaxin returned to the mansion and went to the palace to rest and engage in Dual Cultivation.
The night was turbulent in Xijin City; the Song Family wiped out the Xiong Family and the Du Family, causing a stir among numerous small and medium families in Xijin City.
When did the Song Family become so strong, able to wipe out the Xiong Family and the Du Family?
Song Kai had been busy all night, eliminating all direct members of the Xiong Family and the Du Family, leaving none alive.
Early the next morning, Song Jiaxin woke up.
After getting up, she had the servants prepare some breakfast. By the time she woke up, Qin Hao was already up as well.
"Master, have some breakfast." Song Jiaxin walked to the bedside, intending to assist him in getting up and dressing.
After getting up, Qin Hao asked, "How are things on your father's side?"
Song Jiaxin replied, "Everything went smoothly, but the news of the Du Family's destruction will likely reach the Commandery Princess soon; the mansion might send experts."
"Then we'll kill them as they come. Before we leave, I'll help your family resolve these issues," Qin Hao said matter-of-factly.
Song Jiaxin said, "Thank you, master."
Her heart was somewhat excited; she also wanted to see the vast landscapes alongside Qin Hao.
"Master, Miss, Miss Ji from the leader's mansion has arrived," Chun Mei announced from outside the palace.
Song Jiaxin knew exactly what Ji Sitong intended; she must have been sent by her father to seduce Qin Hao.
This Ji Sitong, once known as the Pure Immortal Maiden of Xijin City, now shamelessly came to seduce the master?
What a sly fox.
Song Jiaxin looked at Qin Hao. She couldn't make a decision on such matters, understanding her role as merely the master's maid. Whatever the master decided was his decision.
