Chapter 167: Elder Qing’s Helplessness

"I am the same, all the Martial Artists of our Qin Family are the same; we will definitely fight until the very last second."

The Martial Artist hesitated for a moment before adding, "It is just that Young Master Qin seems to have fled."

"Young Master Qin is an unparalleled hero; he must have left to leave behind a seed for the Qin Family."

"With Young Master Qin's Talent, he will definitely be able to avenge us. I will wait below for the entire Sima Family to be buried with us."

A Martial Artist wearing chainmail said unwaveringly.

The Martial Artist hurriedly explained, "Of course I believe in Young Master Qin, it is just a pity that I cannot see Young Master Qin lead the Qin Family to rise."

"If I could see the Qin Family rise, I would die without regrets."

The Martial Artist wearing chainmail glanced at Huzi, who had already run into the Qin Family, then said nothing more. He stared straight ahead, guarding the Qin Family.

In the Qin Family Council Hall, every seat was taken; all the important members of the Qin Family had already gathered here.

At the head of the table, Qin Ming stood with a solemn expression, holding a bowl of wine, and said:

"I, Qin Yuan, the eleventh-generation Patriarch of the Qin Family, have failed you all, and I have failed the Qin Family!"

"Patriarch, you have not failed us; it is just a matter of bad luck. Everyone in the Qin Family feels that you did the right thing and are the most competent Patriarch."

An Elder lifted the wine bowl on the table and said loudly.

"That's right, Patriarch, do not blame yourself. You are the best Patriarch."

"It is that Sima Family that has gone too far; let us fight them to the death."

The members of the Qin Family said indignantly.

At this moment, an old Elder struck his cane against the ground, and the entire hall fell silent.

This Elder was the oldest Elder of the Qin Family, having served three generations of Patriarchs, and had now retired.

Yet this time, with the Patriarch facing a life-and-death crisis, this old man who had been enjoying his retirement attended this meeting.

Everyone looked at the old man in front of them, waiting for him to speak.

The old man coughed twice and began to wheeze violently. Suddenly, he threw his cane aside, steadied himself against the table, and said resolutely:

"My Qin Family cannot be exterminated just like this. We old fellows can fight to the death, but the younger generation of the Qin Family cannot die."

"It has been one hundred and twenty-three years since our Qin Family was established; we cannot have our roots severed like this!"

The Qin Family members who had just said they wanted to fight the Sima Family to the death felt ashamed upon hearing this.

Qin Yuan sighed and said, "Let's do this: our Qin Family youths under the age of eighteen shall be organized now and escorted by the Elders with the highest martial arts skills."

"You will take all of our Qin Family's resources, find a remote place to hide, and wait until the situation blows over before you come out."

"If you can take revenge, then take revenge; if you cannot, then let it be! Ensuring the continuation of our Qin Family is the top priority."

Qin Yuan walked over to Elder Qing, fell to his knees with a thud before him, and said:

"It is our Qin Family that has failed you. I hope you can help our Qin Family one more time and take good care of these Qin Family youths."

Elder Qing, who had been resting his eyes in the hall, opened them immediately upon hearing the sound. He rushed toward Qin Yuan, pulled him up, and said loudly:

"What are you doing? Why go to such lengths?"

"We beg Elder Qing to agree!" The other Qin Family members knelt before Elder Qing and pleaded loudly.

"I agree, I agree!" Elder Qing said hurriedly. "Get up quickly, I will agree to it."

What is all this about?

He was just resting his eyes and thinking about a Pill Formula; what has happened to these Qin Family members?

With Qin Ming here, what are you worried about?
