“But…” Huang Qiang hesitated, finding it difficult to speak.

Because he knew that there was only one way to find out the Qin family's secrets: to go to Qin Xuanling.

Qin Xuanling cheated on him, and now, instead of dealing with that bitch, he has to shamelessly fawn over her. He absolutely cannot and will not tolerate such a thing.

"But what do you know? If my Huang family also mastered this secret, within sixty years, my Huang family would become one of the three top powers in Xianyuan City." The Huang family head's face was full of fanaticism.

“Patriarch, I know this matter concerns the rise and fall of our Huang family, but…” Huang Qiang felt incredibly aggrieved.

"There are no 'buts.' I don't care what method you use, you just can't offend Qin Xuanling. You must find out the Qin family's secret. Don't worry, I know you've suffered a great injustice in this matter, and the family will definitely compensate you." The Huang family head didn't want to push Huang Qiang too hard. If something could be resolved with spirit stones, then it wasn't a big deal.

The Huang family patriarch gave Huang Qiang 10,000 low-grade spirit stones and some pills to increase his cultivation as compensation, and only then did he lower his guard.

The fact that Qin Xuanling was able to give birth to an offspring with a superior spiritual root was known to both the Qin and Huang families. The Huang family guessed that it must be because the Qin family had produced a genius. They wanted to find out who this genius was and then win him over.

"Master, something terrible has happened! The Huang family patriarch, along with several high-ranking members of the Huang family, has come looking for you in a menacing manner, as if they're here to cause trouble." A servant of the Qin family rushed to Qin Zhenshan's residence in a panic.

"What do the Huang family want with our Qin family?" Qin Zhenshan asked, looking puzzled.

"You don't need to look at me. This matter is related to Qin Xuanling." Qin Zhennan rolled his eyes at Qin Zhenbei, annoyed.

Chu Tianxing's secret has likely been exposed; they simply cannot hide it anymore.

"Hmph, if I had known, I should have made the Huang family divorce my daughter. Now look what happened, the Huang family knows about my daughter's surrogacy." Qin Zhenbei's face was contorted with rage.

"If the Huang family dares to cause trouble, we'll take this opportunity to wipe them out. With the support of the Qi family from the Qingdan Sect, we'll annex the Huang family." Qin Zhennan was a decisive and ruthless man. His son-in-law's secret must not be exposed; if it were, it would be bad for everyone.

"Huang Shirong isn't so easily fooled. He came knocking at this critical juncture; he must have a plan and preparations. We shouldn't underestimate him and risk being caught off guard." Qin Zhenshan frowned. The Huang family wasn't as incompetent as they thought; in fact, they were quite shrewd.

“Alright, then let’s meet this old fox and see what tricks he can pull.” Qin Zhennan and the others quickly agreed.

This matter could be big or small, depending on how much the Huang family actually knows.

Soon, the top officials of the Qin and Huang families met together.

"Patriarch Qin, you should already know why we've come, it's to bring Qin Xuanling back." Huang Shiren said with a forced smile as soon as he saw Qin Zhenshan.

"You've made such a big show of bringing Xuanling home?" Qin Zhenshan looked at the other party with a sneer.

"Speak your mind! Xuanling has suffered so much injustice in your family all these years, and now you want to take her back? You're dreaming! We're already being kind by not bothering you. You still have the nerve to come to our Qin family and cause trouble. Do you think our Qin family has no one to rely on?" Qin Zhenbei roared.

Today, the Qin family has already made a decision: no matter what the cost, they will not allow Qin Xuanling to return to the Huang family, even if it means turning against the Huang family.

Qin Zhenbei was very assertive, and his words instantly created a tense atmosphere in the room.

"Qin Zhenbei, you want to cause trouble for my Huang family? Fine, today we'll get to the bottom of this. Is the child in Xuanling's belly a Huang family child?" Huang Shiren sneered. He wouldn't let this go so easily.

Daring to cuckold the Huang family is a serious matter, and could be considered a minor one.

Now, he's determined to make a big fuss.

The Qin family members instantly changed color. If this matter were to get out, it would not be a glorious thing for the Qin family; it would be a major scandal.

"Huang Shiren, if you really want to cause trouble, you'll regret it." Qin Zhenbei sneered, but a chilling murderous intent flashed in his eyes as he spoke.

Elder Qi of the Qingdan Sect is still with the Qin family. If necessary, he will ask them to take action and make sure to wipe the Huang family out of Xianyuan City.

"You're the ones who regret it, aren't you? Hand over that adulterer, or I'll make this public knowledge." Huang Shiren wasn't easily intimidated; he was arrogant and seemed completely unconcerned.

"Huang Shiren, our Qin and Huang families are related by marriage. Do you think it will benefit your Huang family if you make a big fuss about this?" Qin Zhenshan couldn't help but sneer.

This matter can be considered a big deal or a small deal.

If things really escalate, neither of them will escape unscathed.

"Qin Zhenshan, if you don't hand over that adulterer, then don't blame me for being impolite. I will notify all the cultivation families and sects in Xianyuan City that your Qin family has a secret method to mass-produce offspring with superior spiritual roots." Huang Shiren didn't care about Qin Zhenshan's threat at all and said coldly.

"You... how did you know?" Qin Zhenshan was shocked. He never expected that the Huang family would know this secret.

"Huang Shiren, are you courting death?" Qin Zhenbei sneered, and with a wave of his hand, the Qi Refining Realm Immortal Masters that the Qin family had arranged nearby released their auras, locking onto Huang Shiren and his group. If they made any unusual moves, they would be killed on the spot.

They had only had some doubts at first, but now they were 100% certain that the Qin family had a big secret: they were able to mass-produce offspring with superior spiritual roots.

"Qin Zhenshan, you want to kill us to silence us? If you dare to make a move, tomorrow, your Qin family's secret will be exposed. Regardless of whether the secret is true or not, many people will want to kill you, and your Qin family will perish along with my Huang family," Huang Shiren said nonchalantly.

Instantly, Qin Zhenshan and the other high-ranking members of the Qin family all changed color.

Huang Shiren really is a cunning old fox.

Whether Huang Shiren's words were true or false, even with Elder Qi of the Qingdan Sect protecting them, the Qin family wouldn't dare to gamble.

Elder Qi of the Qingdan Sect compromised precisely because they didn't want this secret to be exposed.

"Huang Shiren, what exactly do you want?" Qin Zhenshan said, barely suppressing his anger. He had no other choice but to compromise.
