My wife who comes from a wealthy family
Chapter 294 - 295 Qiu Tengjiao

Chapter 294: Chapter 295 Qiu Tengjiao

Utter silence engulfed the arena!

From the crowd, an agonizing scream broke the silence, though no one knew who had let it out first.

"My God, is this, this still human power?"

"This is the power of a king-level powerholder, too terrifying!"

"The Family Head and his wife want to kill us by making us cannon fodder for a terrifying king-level powerholder!" several surviving elders of the Qiu family trembled.

The scene shifted to focus on the Qiu couple.

"Damn it, this kid’s power is too overwhelming!" Mrs. Qiu’s expression was ugly.

"Wife, we’ve really hit the iron plate this time!" Qiu Leiming had lost his previous arrogance.

In contrast, Su Mei’s beautiful eyes gleamed with delight, "Worthy of being my darling sworn younger brother, now even more formidable than me!"

"Get him, all of you useless lot, together, kill him now!" Mrs. Qiu shrieked.

The remaining half of the Qiu family’s Martial Artists, each trembling, instinctively stepped back.

"Brothers, we’re done here!"

"What nonsense elders, I’m done with this!"

"I don’t want to be cannon fodder!" Many Martial Artists from the Qiu family astonishingly switched sides on the spot, taking flight.

Seeing this, Mrs. Qiu ground her teeth in anger, "A bunch of useless freeloaders, always fed well by me, and at the critical moment, all turn into cowards!"

"Yes, it’s infuriating!" Qiu Leiming nodded.

"Husband, your turn!" Mrs. Qiu ordered.

What?

Qiu Leiming’s face changed, then he forced a sheepish smile, his face full of guilt, "Wife, you’re stronger than me. Maybe you should go instead, I’m not sure..."

"You, you waste, what’s the difference between you and those freeloaders? Just a bigger freeloader, how did I end up marrying such a cowardly man!" Mrs. Qiu was visibly furious.

Ye Wudao said with a mocking tone, "You two, weren’t you just acting arrogantly? Why the cowardice now?"

"You, don’t get cocky, we are still figuring out how to kill you!" Mrs. Qiu retorted stubbornly.

"That’s right, brat, you’d better run! Take those two pretty women with you, and that old geezer Wu Yazi, and run as far away as you can. Otherwise, when I lose my temper, even I am not afraid of myself!" Qiu Leiming threatened verbally, his heart filled with fear though.

"Haha, clearly scared to death, yet still acting tough!" Su Mei said with a mocking face.

"The game is over!" Ye Wudao’s eyes were frosty as he held the Beiwang Blade in his hand, his body suddenly exuding a terrifyingly domineering power.

"Die!"

A horrifying blade aura descended from the sky, carrying a power that penetrated everything, aiming straight for the Qiu couple.

"It’s over, all over!" Qiu Leiming’s body trembled, his hair standing on end, sensing the threat of death.

At the last moment, Mrs. Qiu pushed Qiu Leiming forward with her hands, while she hid behind him.

No!

Don’t!

Qiu Leiming’s pupils sharply contracted, and the next moment, his abdomen was pierced by the blade aura, the wound cross-shaped and impossible to heal.

He fell to the ground spitting blood, his eyes full of resentment, "Wife, you, you..."

"My life is more valuable than yours. I still have our precious son, your death is inconsequential!" Mrs. Qiu said coldly.

"You, you wicked woman, I won’t let you go even as a ghost!" Qiu Leiming spat out a mouthful of blood furiously, then breathed his last.

"Hmph, I’ll just remarry later and find a man stronger than you!" Mrs. Qiu was utterly indifferent to her husband’s life or death.

In her eyes, a husband was but a pawn to be discarded at will!

"To kill even your own husband, truly a heartless and ruthless woman!" Ye Wudao said with disgust, raising the Beiwang Blade once again, "With this blow, let’s see who can save you now?"

As the words fell, Ye Wudao swung his blade!

Bang!

A terrifying blade aura, carrying boundless sharp power and murderous intent.

"It’s over, finished..." Mrs. Qiu’s complexion drastically changed.

Just at this critical moment, a thunderous roar came, "Stop!"

Before the echo faded, a mysterious power blocked the blow.

Who?

Ye Wudao’s pupils contracted sharply as he stared fiercely into the distance.

In the distance, an old man and a young man were approaching, resembling a master and his disciple.

The leader was an elder in green robes, with his hair tied in a bun and holding a dust whisk, appearing unearthly.

By the side of the elder in green robes stood a handsome young man with star-like eyes and the demeanor of a king.

"Whew, the old lady isn’t dead..." Madam Qiu sighed in relief.

"Mom!" Just then, a voice called out.

Madam Qiu sharply turned her head and saw the pair of master and disciple, her eyes brimming with excitement, "Teng Jiao, it’s my son, Teng Jiao has returned!"

"It’s the eldest young master back from the Ministry of Martial Arts!"

"Now our Qiu family can be saved!" Many fleeing Qiu family martial artists returned upon seeing Qiu Tengjiao.

"Mom, are you alright..." Qiu Tengjiao quickly approached, supporting Madam Qiu.

"Teng Jiao, Mom’s fine. It’s been years since you’ve been home, I’ve missed you so much!" Madam Qiu touched her son’s face, showing a mother’s tenderness.

"Such feigned affection, truly nauseating!" Su Mei mocked with a smirk.

"Mom, let me formally introduce you. This is my mentor at the Ministry of Martial Arts, Master Qing Yunzi. Previously, he was the vice chancellor at one of the eighteen Daoist temples on Dragon Tiger Mountain!" Qiu Tengjiao proudly introduced the elder in green robes standing beside him.

"It’s an honor to meet Master Qing Yunzi!" Madam Qiu bowed respectfully.

"Hehe, Madam Qiu, there’s no need for such formalities!" Qing Yunzi said, whisk in hand, smiling slightly.

"Mom, where’s Dad?" Qiu Tengjiao asked curiously.

"Your father, oh..." Madam Qiu began, then covered her face with her hand and wept.

"Mom, speak, why does our Qiu house lie in ruins, with heavy casualties, and what exactly happened to my father?" Qiu Tengjiao looked around at the broken walls of the Qiu house and asked urgently.

"My son, you are one step too late. He... he was killed by a traitor..." Madam Qiu feigned sadness.

Boom!

Qiu Tengjiao was struck as if by lightning!

What?

No, it can’t be!

Qiu Tengjiao quickly stepped forward and saw a body lying on the ground.

"Dad, Dad, I’m back, wake up please!" Qiu Tengjiao threw himself to the ground, wailing in agony.

"Teng Jiao, your dad is dead, and your mom can’t live on!" Madam Qiu looked despondent.

"Mom, you’re the only kin I have in this world, you mustn’t think of suicide!" Qiu Tengjiao quickly grabbed Madam Qiu’s hand, seething with anger, "Tell me, who killed my dad? I will wipe out his entire family!"

"My child, the enemy is too powerful, you cannot afford to offend them!" Madam Qiu cried.

"Impossible! I am now a disciple of the Martial King!" Qiu Tengjiao said.

What?

A disciple of the Martial King!

Madam Qiu looked shocked, "My son, you, you’ve actually become a disciple of the Martial King?"

"Cough cough, although I’m just a nominal disciple, the Martial King takes great care of his disciples and specifically assigned Master Qing Yunzi to instruct me in my training!" Qiu Tengjiao said, somewhat sheepishly.

"Madam Qiu, your son’s talent is extraordinary. Although he is currently only a nominal disciple, it might not take many years for him to become a true disciple of the Martial King. By then, all of Mountain City will take pride in Teng Jiao!" Master Qing Yunzi said with a smile.

"Good, good, good!" Madam Qiu was extremely excited!

Qiu Tengjiao being taken as a nominal disciple of the Martial King was already beyond Madam Qiu’s expectations,

If he is taken as a true disciple, then by leveraging the Martial King’s power, the Qiu family will be ten times, a hundred times stronger than now!

"Haha, Qiu Leiming, you useless dead fool, do you see this? Teng Jiao is ten times, a hundred times more promising than you! You can rest in peace now!" Madam Qiu, thrilled inside, couldn’t suppress her smile.

"Mom, why are you smiling?" Qiu Tengjiao asked curiously.

"Oh, Mom is happy to have such a successful son!" Madam Qiu hastily displayed a sorrowful expression.

"Mom, can you tell me now, who is responsible for destroying our Qiu family, for killing my father?" Qiu Tengjiao asked through gritted teeth.

"It’s him!" Madam Qiu pointed at Ye Wudao in the distance, her eyes filled with venomous hatred.

"Was it you, you killed my father?" Qiu Tengjiao glared at Ye Wudao, his eyes blazing, gritting his teeth.

"Ah..." Ye Wudao yawned, stretched lazily, and said with a look of utter boredom, "Are you two done exchanging your last words? If so, it’s time for me to send you on your way!"
