After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

After leaving the Lin family, Qin Chuan and his group quickly returned to the Qin family.

Qin Zhantian looked at Qin Chuan with concern, "Chuan'er, are you alright?"

At this moment, Qin Chuan's face was pale, devoid of any color.

"It's alright, Patriarch." Qin Chuan shook his head, forcing a smile, and said, "I'll just rest for a while, then I'll take my leave!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhantian nodded and quickly said, "Go ahead, I'll tell everyone not to disturb you!"

"Thank you, Master!"

After saying that, Qin Chuan turned and left.

Watching Qin Chuan's departing figure, Qin Zhantian muttered to himself, "It seems our Qin family is truly about to rise!"

“Yes!” The Second Elder nodded, but quickly added worriedly, “Patriarch, now that we’ve killed the young sect master of the Thunderclap Sect, I’m afraid…”

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhantian's expression also turned serious.

……

Upon returning to the house, Qin Chuan went directly into the space of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace.

Within the space where stars formed the ceiling, a woman in a phoenix dress stood suspended in mid-air. Her features were exquisite, and her demeanor was dignified and elegant as she looked down at the young man before her.

After taking a deep breath, Qin Chuan clasped his hands and said, "Thank you for your help, Senior Yao Xi. Otherwise, I might have been in danger this time."

"You know that too!" Empress Yaoxi said coldly, her face as cold as ice. "If I hadn't sensed your danger and lent you my last bit of cultivation, you would probably be dead by now."

Hearing this, Qin Chuan smiled awkwardly. Earlier in the Lin family mansion, he had borrowed cultivation from Empress Yao Xi, which enabled him to easily defeat that Elder Mo.

Immediately, Qin Chuan clasped his hands and said, "Senior Yao Xi's great kindness will be remembered by Qin Chuan, and I will repay it tenfold in the future!"

"Forget about later, let's do it now!" Empress Yaoxi said calmly, "Because of you, all the cultivation I painstakingly accumulated has been used on you, and I'm already suffering the backlash from the Other Shore Flower's Spring Poison."

"Then what should we do..." Qin Chuan's words were cut short as his expression suddenly changed, and he exclaimed in horror, "Senior Yao... Senior Yao Xi, no! I'm still seriously injured, I'm afraid I can't..."

"You don't need to do anything, what are you afraid of?" Empress Yaoxi interrupted Qin Chuan directly.

"But..." Qin Chuan was about to say something when he felt a weight on his body. Empress Yao Xi pressed him down and then pressed her red lips against his.

"Um…"

A scene of spring unfolds, but sadly, no one appreciates it...

……

After the battle subsided, Qin Chuan felt a dull ache in his lower back.

Looking at the radiant Empress Yaoxi beside him, he momentarily doubted whether her claim of being poisoned by the other shore flower was true...

That's too intense!

"Snapped!"

Just then, two scrolls fell to the ground beside Qin Chuan.

Empress Yaoxi's voice drifted over, "Your strength is still too weak. These Tai Xu Wu Boundless Technique and Heaven-Breaking Palm are just little gadgets that I obtained by chance. You can use them to cultivate."

"Low-grade Heavenly Rank?!"

The Boundless Void Technique is a cultivation manual without any rank, but after seeing the rank of the Heaven-Breaking Palm, Qin Chuan was suddenly stunned and speechless with shock.

"No, this feeling..."

Looking at Empress Yaoxi dressed in her phoenix gown, Qin Chuan suddenly realized something was amiss.

This feeling is like being in some brothel in Guiyun City, listening to music, and then, after it's all over, you pull up your pants and get some money...

Just as Qin Chuan was about to get up and argue with Empress Yao Xi, he saw that the woman had already disappeared from the spot.

"Sigh..." Qin Chuan sighed and picked up the scroll on the ground.

He did not immediately practice that martial art, but instead began to heal his injuries.

In the previous battle with the Lin family, although he temporarily possessed a portion of Empress Yaoxi's power, his body was also subjected to a great strain.

His current body is not yet able to withstand this kind of power.

A month later, Qin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief; his injuries had almost completely healed.

But only a few hours had passed in the outside world.

Without any hesitation, Qin Chuan took out the Heaven-Breaking Palm Technique given to him by Empress Yao Xi and began to cultivate it.

The Heaven-Shattering Palm Technique is a Heaven-Rank palm technique, divided into five levels...

As time passed and through continuous hard work, Qin Chuan finally mastered the first level of the Heaven-Breaking Palm.

However, to cultivate the second level of palm techniques, one must break through to the realm of a Great Mystic Master.

Seeing this, Qin Chuan had no choice but to give up for the time being, leave the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace space, and head straight for the council hall.

The atmosphere in the Qin family's council hall was somewhat oppressive at this moment.

"Patriarch, now that we have killed the young sect master of the Thunderclap Sect, the Thunderclap Sect will definitely not let our Qin family off the hook. We must be on guard against this!"

"What's there to be afraid of! At worst, we'll fight them to the death. This young sect master of the Thunder Sect is too much! He actually dared to extract Young Master Qin's bloodline!"

"That's right! It's all because the Thunder Sect is unreasonable. Even if we hadn't killed that young sect master, the Thunder Sect would not have let Young Master Qin go, nor would they have let our Qin family go!"

"..."

As soon as Qin Chuan entered the council hall, he heard the elders discussing among themselves.

"Ahem... Chuan'er, you're here!" Upon seeing Qin Chuan walk in, Qin Zhantian immediately stood up from the main seat!

His excitement aggravated his injuries, causing him to wince in pain.

"Patriarch, I've arrived!" Qin Chuan clasped his hands and said, "I heard the conversation earlier. One person does the deed, one person takes the blame! I will bear all of this alone!"

"What are you saying! We are all members of the Qin family, how could we let you shoulder everything alone!" Qin Zhantian rebuked.

At this moment, the Second Elder also stepped forward and said, "That's right! No matter what, the Qin family will stand on the young master's side!"

"Yes! There's strength in numbers. If we work together, we can always come up with a solution!"

"That's right! Even if Young Master Qin takes the blame alone, the Thunder Sect might not be satisfied and let our Qin family off the hook..."

"..."

The other elders echoed this sentiment.

Hearing everyone's words, Qin Chuan felt a warmth in his heart. He was just an adopted son, but he never expected that so many people would be willing to protect him.

At this moment, Qin Zhantian added, "Chuan'er, don't worry. I have already sent someone to speak with the Lin family. Although Lin Zhen is a fool, he still knows how to handle matters of family survival. The news about the death of the young sect master of the Thunder Sect in the Lin family has been temporarily blocked."

Although we know we can't hide it for long, every bit of time helps, and we can definitely come up with a plan during that time!

"Okay!" Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan nodded and did not insist any further.

Immediately, he took out a storage ring and said, "These are the betrothal gifts returned from the Lin family..."

Just as Qin Chuan was about to return these items, the Second Elder interrupted him.

"Young Master, you are now the number one among the younger generation of our Qin family. Even we old bones have to feel ashamed of ourselves. It is most appropriate for you to keep these things!"

"Alright!" Seeing that the others around him shared the same attitude, Qin Chuan stopped being coy and accepted it.

"Young Master, I have received some news, but I am not sure if I should tell you. Perhaps it can free our Qin family from the threat of the Thunder Sect!"

Just then, an elder suddenly spoke up.
