Xuanwu War Sovereign

Chapter 519: Chapter 518: The 4 Great Guardian Elders

Silence!

Within Yunhu City, all the Martial Artists who witnessed that sword strike fell silent.

Bathed in the light of the sword, a deep chill emanated from the very depths of their souls.

Recalling that strike, they still felt the horrifying sensation of their souls being cleaved in two.

Seeing this, the Martial Artists of the Five Great Families looked extremely grim.

On a rooftop several thousand feet away, the Qi Family Patriarch’s face was dark. It’s unclear what crossed his mind, but with a cold snort, he turned and left.

...

「Before the City Lord’s Mansion.」

Wang Xiao’s eyes were lifeless. Qin Feng’s sword light had instantly extinguished all her vitality; even her soul had been slain by that single strike.

Her dead eyes remained fixed on Qin Feng.

SPLAT!

Her body, split in two, tumbled to the ground, splattering blood everywhere.

Qin Feng’s gaze fell upon the four remaining experts from the Lei Ming Sect.

Bao Wen, Cui Haoming, Cui Wenxiang, and Zhong Wanwu’s faces stiffened, a thread of fear creeping into their hearts.

"Qin Feng, you dare kill our Eldest Senior Sister! The Lei Ming Sect will not let you go! If you’re smart, you’ll let us leave. Otherwise, when the Lei Ming Sect comes to hold you accountable, you won’t be able to handle the consequences, even if you are an Inner Sect Disciple of the Star Sect!"

His gaze swept over the four, whose expressions changed slightly as they put up their guard.

Qin Feng sneered. "Accountable? Aren’t you overthinking things? The Lei Ming Sect is in cahoots with the Qiankun Sect, opposing our Star Sect. It’s only natural that I kill you. If you’re smart, you’ll surrender and let me place a Prohibition on you. If you keep blathering, I’ll just have to slaughter all four of you and turn you in to the Star Sect for a reward!"

Qin Feng’s gaze swept back and forth over their heads.

"Geniuses from the Lei Ming Sect’s Sea of Reincarnation Realm should be worth a decent price!"

Bao Wen, Cui Haoming, Cui Wenxiang, and Zhong Wanwu’s faces fell. If it came to a fight, they knew deep down that they were no match for Qin Feng.

Seeing the four still hesitating, Qin Feng activated his Divine Thought. An immense surge of power erupted, crashing down on the four men as a wave of pressure.

RUMBLE!

The four men’s faces contorted as they were uncontrollably blown back several dozen steps.

"Have you made up your minds? My patience isn’t a virtue," Qin Feng said, his eyes narrowing.

Bao Wen, Cui Haoming, Cui Wenxiang, and Zhong Wanwu exchanged glances, a bitter look in their eyes. ’Do we even have a choice at this point?’

’Even our Eldest Senior Sister was killed on the spot with a single sword strike. What hope do we have?’

"We are willing to surrender!"

The four of them lowered their heads in unison.

’Very good.’ Qin Feng nodded, a gleam flashing in his eyes. ’With these four, the Qin Family’s position in Yunhu City will be further stabilized.’

With a gust of wind, he appeared before the four. He reached out with a large hand, and they felt a stir in their souls as a soul fragment was torn from each.

Their expressions were complicated, but they didn’t dare resist in the slightest.

He casually planted the Prohibitions, processed the four soul fragments, and then just as casually sent them back into their bodies.

The four men clearly felt an invisible shackle form in the depths of their souls.

This time, Qin Feng didn’t use his Heart Demon Power. At his current stage, the number of Heart Demons he could refine was limited.

Refining too many would risk damaging his own soul.

Bao Wen, Cui Haoming, Cui Wenxiang, and Zhong Wanwu exchanged glances, a deep bitterness in their eyes. They simultaneously stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Master!"

"Address me as City Lord. From now on, you are the Guardian Honored Guest Elders of our Qin Family in Yunhu City!" After speaking, Qin Feng glanced at the four men with their heads bowed.

"Your position will be equivalent to that of an Elder. Of course, you will also receive a monthly stipend of four Low Grade Willpower Pearls. Rest assured, as long as you serve my Qin Family loyally and make sufficient contributions, it’s not impossible for me to remove the Prohibitions. At that time, you’ll be free to come and go as you please!"

Finally, Qin Feng dangled a carrot in front of the four men.

Qin Feng knew that even a cornered rabbit will bite.

Let alone four experts of the Martial Arts Sea Realm.

Rather than forcibly suppressing their will, it was better to use the carrot and stick approach—offering them some hope.

Sure enough, upon hearing Qin Feng’s words, the four men’s expressions brightened considerably.

Nearby, the members of the Qin Family showed faint smiles as they watched this unfold.

Although the Yunhu City’s Qin Family had always been overseen by Qin Feng, their Clan Leader, he was still just one person and couldn’t be everywhere at once.

Now, with four Martial Artists at the Sea of Reincarnation Realm, things would be much more convenient.

They were high-level enforcers.

Meanwhile, the leaders of the Five Great Families watched this with dark and flickering expressions.

The original Qin Family, while powerful, only had a dozen or so members, most of whom were Martial Artists at the Condensing Vein Realm.

Although the Five Great Families showed them enough respect, such a small group couldn’t accomplish anything significant on their own.

But now, with the addition of four Sea of Reincarnation Realm Martial Artists, their deterrent power had increased immensely.

Looking at Wang Xiao’s mutilated corpse on the ground, Qin Feng made a casual gesture, and the Thunder God Halberd flew into his hand.

As he gripped it, Qin Feng realized the Thunder God Halberd was incredibly heavy, weighing over a thousand pounds.

Qin Feng’s gaze swept over it. The Thunder God Halberd had a fluid, streamlined shape, its surface covered in inscribed patterns. It had been forged from a rare Thunder Essence.

It contained a dense concentration of Thunder Element power.

This was a Thunder Element Pseudo-True Artifact.

Holding it, Qin Feng’s powerful Spiritual Sense clearly detected a profound Thunder Power contained within the Thunder God Halberd.

If this Thunder God Halberd were in the hands of a powerful Martial Artist who specialized in the Thunder Element, their strength would be amplified several times over.

The eyes of Bao Wen, Cui Haoming, Cui Wenxiang, and Zhong Wanwu lit up with fervent desire.

Even among the Martial Arts Giants of the Lei Ming Sect, not all of them possessed a Pseudo-True Artifact.

True Artifacts were simply too rare and too precious.

This was especially true for a True Artifact that matched one’s elemental Attributes.

Qin Feng waved his hand, and Qin Qingyue stepped forward. The beautiful woman’s eyes revealed a respect that came from the bottom of her heart.

"Venerable Lord!"

"Place this weapon in the family treasury and add it to the family’s exchange list. It can be redeemed by anyone with sufficient contribution points!"

"Yes!" Qin Qingyue nodded.

With a wave of her hand, she took the halberd.

Hearing this, the eyes of the four men nearby lit up.

After dealing with the four, Qin Feng glanced at his surroundings and then up at the sky, his expression impassive. With a turn, he headed back into the City Lord’s Mansion.

Up in the sky, the young woman in colorful clothes sighed softly.

"To command the situation so completely... He suppressed Wang Xiao of the Lei Ming Sect with ease, then used threats and promises to bring her four companions to heel, all while intimidating the other Martial Artists in Yunhu City. His methods are truly eye-opening!"

Hearing the tone of the Colorful-clothed Woman, the man in green robes felt a pang of discomfort. A flash of jealousy crossed his eyes as he glanced dismissively at the City Lord’s Mansion and said,

"He’s still too impulsive. Young and hot-headed. In my opinion, I’m afraid this City Lord won’t live for long."

"This City Lord may have felt a moment of satisfaction from killing Wang Xiao, but it was an incredibly unwise move. You have to understand, Wang Xiao and those four from the Lei Ming Sect were guests invited by the Sea Demon Queen. By killing Wang Xiao and then suppressing and enslaving the other four, he has effectively slapped the Sea Demon Clan across the face. He has shown immense disrespect to the Sea Demon Queen!"

"I’m afraid the experts from the Sea Demon Clan will arrive very soon!"
