The members of the Song Family were all scared witless, staring with their eyes wide and jaws agape. In their eyes, Song Qingshan had already been a top-notch powerhouse.
Yet now, he had been killed by He Qingcang.
And such a powerful He Qingcang had been sent flying with a slap from Qin Chuan. Does this mean that Qin Chuan is even stronger than He Qingcang?
"Aaahhh..."
He Qingcang struggled to his feet, letting out a furious roar. The right half of his face still bore a distinct palm print.
"A grandmaster must not be insulted! You dared to strike my face; I will tear you to pieces!"
The ferocity on He Qingcang’s face intensified as an even more powerful aura erupted from him.
All the experts of the Song Family felt an overwhelming pressure bearing down on them, each face filled with terror.
Qin Chuan, however, acted as if he hadn’t heard He Qingcang’s threats and removed all the needles he had just inserted.
"Close the gates of death, open the gates of life! Song Qingshan, wake up!"
Just then, Qin Chuan roared at Song Qingshan as if uttering an incantation, his voice exploding like thunder, piercing directly into Song Qingshan’s mind.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a powerful aura burst forth from inside Song Qingshan, filling his entire body in an instant and breaking free from the shackles on his body.
To the amazement of everyone watching, Song Qingshan, who had previously been devoid of any signs of life, abruptly stood up.
"Roar!"
Song Qingshan threw back his head and let out an earth-shaking roar.
A strong force of inner strength, like a hurricane, swept outward from Song Qingshan, towards all directions.
"What?"
He Qingcang, who was preparing to move against Qin Chuan, widened his eyes in shock, the image of someone seeing a ghost, and exclaimed, "Internal Energy Release? Energizing Skill Grandmaster!"
"How is this possible? Elder Song was clearly killed by me, how is he still alive? And he’s become a grandmaster?"
What frightened him even more was the aura emanating from Song Qingshan, which was making even him feel palpitations.
"Thanks to Divine Doctor Qin’s rebirth grace, from this day forth, the Song Family shall follow Divine Doctor Qin’s lead!"
Song Qingshan’s face was flush with excitement as he bent over to bow deeply to Qin Chuan.
It was not until this moment that he finally understood that his great opportunity was indeed Qin Chuan!
And he had seized that opportunity!
It was the Evergreen Pill that he had taken; had he not consumed this elixir, even if Qin Chuan were a deity, he probably couldn’t have been saved.
He felt his body brimming with immense power, his current strength far surpassing his former self.
Qin Chuan graciously accepted Song Qingshan’s bow, nodding slightly and said, "Kill He Qingcang to solidify your realm!"
"Yes!"
Song Qingshan, eager to try his newfound abilities, turned his gaze towards He Qingcang.
"Grandpa, he’s really been saved by Qin Chuan!"
"Hahaha, the Family Head isn’t dead, he’s still alive, this is wonderful!"
"Not only is the Family Head alive, but he has also become an Energizing Skill Grandmaster!"
...
It was not until this moment that the people of the Song Family finally came to their senses, each one speaking with emotional excitement.
Song Yan’s beautiful eyes turned towards Qin Chuan, and when she saw the red palm print on his face, her own was full of guilt and her eyes moistened.
Song Jie also felt deep remorse, thinking about how he had previously wanted to kill Qin Chuan to avenge his grandfather, he wished he could slap himself multiple times.
"Boy, what kind of sorcery have you used? Song Qingshan was clearly killed by me, how could he still be revived by you?"
He Qingcang glared at Qin Chuan ferociously as he demanded an answer.
Qin Chuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking indifferently at the other party as he said, "The person I intend to save, not even the King of Hell can take away!"
"Ah, ah, ah, you’re infuriating me!"
He Qingcang let out a roar and charged at Qin Chuan.
"He Qingcang, your opponent is me!"
Song Qingshan moved his feet and took the initiative to attack He Qingcang.
"Bang!"
The two men’s strikes collided, sending a furious momentum exploding in all directions, with both of them stepping back repeatedly.
When the two steadied themselves, the people from the Song Family rejoiced to see that He Qingcang had retreated nine steps, while Song Qingshan had only retreated three steps.
After one strike, the superior was decided!
Song Qingshan’s face was filled with wild joy as he laughed aloud, "Haha, He Qingcang, so what if you became a Grandmaster before me? Right after I stepped into the Energizing Skill, I’m stronger than you!"
It was not until this moment that He Qingcang realized that being slapped away by Qin Chuan earlier wasn’t accidental, but rather because Qin Chuan was deeply concealing his strength.
Otherwise, how could Qin Chuan have revived the already dead Song Qingshan?
Not only had he revived Song Qingshan, but he also helped Song Qingshan become an Energizing Skill Grandmaster in one fell swoop.
Such a feat was simply astounding!
He finally understood why Qin Chuan had spared his life—it was not out of mercy, but to use him as a sparring tool for Song Qingshan.
Thinking of this, a chill ran through He Qingcang.
"Elder Song, I’ll spare your life today, but I will return to kill you another day!"
After dropping these harsh words, He Qingcang turned and fled.
This scene left everyone stunned.
After being dazed for a moment, Song Qingshan also came back to his senses, moved his feet, and directly gave chase: "Why wait for another day when we can settle life and death today?"
A smile crept onto Qin Chuan’s lips, from the moment He Qingcang had the idea to retreat, he had already lost.
As expected, within less than five minutes, He Qingcang lay on the ground, no longer having the strength to fight.
"Is this really the Family Head?"
"When did our Family Head become so powerful? Even a Grandmaster Expert has been defeated by him?"
"The Family Head is mighty!"
...
The people from the Song Family, one by one, were filled with excitement, cheering loudly.
Song Yan looked toward Qin Chuan, suddenly feeling a sense of unfamiliarity. The reason Song Qingshan could possess such formidable strength was all due to Qin Chuan.
Before, she thought she was quite a match for Qin Chuan, but now, she felt unworthy of him.
"Song Qingshan, give me a way out, and I swear I will never trouble you again," He Qingcang pleaded from the ground, his face full of the fear of death, "Over these years, I’ve accumulated a lot of wealth, which I can give you all."
From his superior position, Song Qingshan coldly looked down at He Qingcang and said, "Between you and me, there was no life-or-death feud. However, because you lost to me in an auction twenty years ago, you wanted to kill me."
"Do you think I would let you go, just to wait for the day when you find another opportunity to kill me?"
With a look of despair, He Qingcang knew that Song Qingshan would not give him another chance and suddenly his face twisted sinisterly, "Song Qingshan, I’m now a member of the Green Gate Sect, and the Green Gate Sect Leader is my master. If you dare to kill me, my master will never let you off!"
"Your entire Song Family will pay for my death!"
Hearing He Qingcang’s words, Song Qingshan’s expression changed dramatically, being the richest man in Jiangcheng City, how could he not be aware of the terror of the Green Gate Sect?
The Green Gate Sect, an enormous power with a legacy spanning hundreds of years, disciples of Green Gate are spread across the globe.
And He Qingcang’s master was actually the Green Gate Sect Leader.
Just when Song Qingshan was hesitating, Qin Chuan suddenly spoke up, "If you don’t remove the roots, the spring breeze will bring them back to life!"
