Chen Fan nodded.

Because of the existence of that person from the Qin Family, even if Wang Lingling doesn't come to Anshan City early tomorrow, she will be captured by the Qin Family members elsewhere.

Moreover, with the outbreak of the Beast Tide on the outskirts, she has no choice but to go to the central city.

"Besides, it is precisely because of her arrival that the Anshan City Awakened Association suffered heavy losses," Meng Xue said with a bitter smile.

"Is it because their fighting involved others?"

Chen Fan asked instinctively.

In the next second, he denied this thought internally.

Because no matter how intense the aftershocks of the battle, the people in the association aren't fools. They would definitely stay far away, and they all have protective items to block some of the aftershocks. The ordinary people should be the ones heavily affected.

"No, it was those people from the Qin Family who killed them," Meng Xue said.

"What exactly happened?"

A cold light flashed in Chen Fan's eyes.

The people of the Awakened Association, although not very skilled, were loyal to him and handled many small matters for him.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to hunt or even cultivate peacefully in the city.

As a result, these people were killed by the Qin Family members, which he couldn't just stand by and watch happen.

"It starts with the thing Wang Lingling stole. As I told you earlier, my intuition told me that what she stole was not simple. If I tried to divine it, it would consume a large amount of my spiritual power. But this time, from their conversation, I finally learned what it was."

"What is it?"

"It's a Divine Demon-level technique, the Longevity Technique."

"Divine Demon-level technique, the Longevity Technique?"

Chen Fan's mind buzzed.

Divine Demon-level martial arts!

Just talking about its value, it surpasses tens of millions of points, even hundreds of millions, and it's something that can't be bought even if you have points.

Even he was tempted at this moment.

Meng Xue said, "After knowing that she couldn't escape death, Wang Lingling chose to burn bridges and revealed that she stole the Longevity Technique. Her goal was likely to disgust the Qin Family members so they couldn't bring the Longevity Technique back to their family smoothly. However, as a result, those martial artists from the Qin Family, to prevent the news from leaking, began silencing those around them. Not only the Awakeners but also many ordinary people were killed by them. They left only after confirming no one was left alive."

"I see."

Chen Fan didn't know what to say.

A second ago, he thought this woman had a bit of conscience for coming to inform him.

But after hearing Meng Xue's account, he felt it would have been better if she hadn't come.

If she hadn't come, the people of the Awakened Association wouldn't have died.

Of course, the culprits were the people from the Qin Family,

but from their standpoint, what they did wasn't wrong. It was just a matter of different positions.

"Chen Fan, what do you plan to do?"

Meng Xue asked.

After all, she had informed Chen Fan about what would happen in the future.

It was possible to stop Wang Lingling from arriving.

After a brief thought, Chen Fan said, "If heaven gives you an opportunity and you don't take it, you will suffer for it. Besides, Wang Lingling did have good intentions. I'll save her once, but I want the Longevity Technique in her hands."

"Okay."

Meng Xue smiled.

She had roughly guessed that Chen Fan would make this choice.

"But you better be prepared to offend the Qin Family."

She reminded.

"Hmm."

Chen Fan nodded.

There's always a cost. It's normal.

Offending a noble family for a Divine Demon-level martial art is worth it.

Besides, he had already offended one Song Family. Offending another Qin Family, so what?

...

Early the next morning, at dawn, a figure rushed from a distance.

This was a woman, panting, with a lot of sweat on her forehead. It appeared she had been traveling for a long time.

"Hmm, the city ahead seems to be Anshan City?"

Wang Lingling looked around and revealed a trace of surprise when she saw a city in the distance.

After being warned off last night, she had run some distance and found a small village to stay in.

During this time, she was concerned that the Qin Family members might track her down, but thankfully, it was a false alarm.

However, she didn't expect the ground to keep shaking at night. She took a curious look and was nearly scared to death. Countless fierce beasts were coming.

She didn't dare waste time and ran all night. It wasn't until dawn that she arrived here.

"The Beast Tide is coming soon. This place is also not safe."

Her eyes showed sorrow.

Once the Beast Tide arrived, everyone in the city would surely die.

Not just here, she had passed many small villages along the way, and their fate would be the same.

"Forget it, I'm having a rough time surviving myself. How can I have the mood to care about others?"

She laughed self-deprecatingly.

She didn't even know where to find a safe place for herself next.

The closer she got to the center, the higher the chance of being found by the Qin Family.

She didn't dare think about the consequences if she were caught.

"I've already stolen it. It's too late to regret it now. Besides, the Qin Family has done countless evil deeds. Stealing something from them is just giving them a lesson."

As she thought this, her mood lightened considerably.

"Alright then, considering Mr. Li is a good person, I'll just go and inform him. It doesn't matter if he believes it or not, I've done my duty."

She suddenly turned towards Anshan City.

At the break of dawn, Anshan City was already bustling.

The steam from buns filled the air.

Wang Lingling easily entered the city and, smelling the aroma, immediately bought some meat buns to eat while heading towards the Awakened Association.

"That guy seems to be the president of the Awakened Association, right?"

She suddenly thought of a key issue.

Such a person is not easy to meet, even for her.

What if she gets stopped?

"If I get stopped, then so be it. I'll say my piece and leave. Believe it or not, their regret will come once the Beast Tide hits."

At the same time, a group of seven or eight figures was rapidly approaching.

These people were none other than the Qin Family members who had been tracking her.

Leading the group was the Third Brother, followed by the Fifth Brother, and then Qin Jiming and others.

Last night, the two elders of the Qin Family were not angry; instead, they told them to rest early as they would leave before dawn.

So now, this scene was unfolding.

"I didn't expect Third Uncle and Fifth Uncle to act with us this time, but they didn't say anything. It seems that yesterday really disappointed them."

Someone thought to themselves.

"Hopefully, we can capture that bitch Wang Lingling this time and retrieve the Longevity Technique for the Qin Family."

Qin Jiming looked worried.

With the two elders personally leading the mission, it was supposed to be a sure thing.

But perhaps due to yesterday's events, he felt uneasy and could only pray nothing would go wrong this time.

"Wang Lingling, you bitch, how dare you deceive me. Just wait, once I catch you, I'll crush your bones and scatter your ashes, making you regret ever coming into this world!" Qin Hao roared with anger in his heart.

This incident had made him the family's scapegoat and the laughingstock of many people.

The past few days had been a nightmare for him.

He wouldn't be satisfied until he got his revenge.
