"Huo!"
Qin Feng slammed his fist onto the iron door of the cell.
A deafening sound echoed out.
The iron door, which had been kicked for three years, crumbled under Qin Feng's fist.
Qin Feng's eyes shone with a cold light as he murmured, "It's been three years, I'm going to wipe away all the humiliation with a single punch."
"Qin Wentian, how dare you ignore the laws of the Qin family and send people to kill me before the Sword Testing Day!"
"Today!"
"I, Qin Feng, will be the one! The time to wash away my humiliation! "
"Sword Testing Day, the precedent of the Qin family, I, Qin Feng, will be here!"
"Break!"
Each and every word of Qin Feng was deafening, like thunder on a sunny day, resounding throughout the entire cell.
His eyes stared at the rays of sunlight shining in from the corridor as he coldly snorted, "Sword Testing Day, I, Qin Feng, will be here!"
The Sword Testing Grounds of the Qin family was actually the Sword Training Grounds of the Qin family, just that the name was different.
Today, to the Qin family, was even more grand than the New Year. There was also a saying that this day was called the Coming of Age Ceremony, which meant that today, the disciples of the Qin family would officially step onto the path of sword cultivation, stepping into the pugilistic world.
On this day, the Qin Clan would send out invitations written in large red characters. Apart from inviting the Patriarchs of the Cangzhou City's four great clans, they would also invite a few capable people with considerable attainments in the way of the sword to witness the new batch of Qin Clan disciples entering the way of the sword and becoming Sword Masters.
The people of the Qin family had been busy since early in the morning, setting up the grounds, hanging up the banners, hanging the banners, and hanging the banners. They were extremely busy.
When the sound of firecrackers rang out outside the gate of the Qin family, the guests invited by the Qin family arrived at the Sword Testing Grounds. Qin Wentian warmly welcomed each and every guest, and outside the gate of the Qin family, his eldest son, Qin Wu, was there to welcome the guests.
The second son, Qin Jian, and the third son, Qin Ming, had just returned from the Sword Slave Prison, and were changing into clean clothes.
As for all the Sword Slaves of the Qin family, early in the morning, they were brought out from the Sword Slave Prison by the disciples of the Qin family. Their hands and legs were shackled, and they were escorted outside the Sword Testing Grounds, waiting for the order from the clan leader, Qin Wentian, to send the Sword Slaves into the Sword Testing Grounds for the disciples of the Qin family to temper their killing intent.
The eyes of all the Sword Slaves were filled with fear, showing the desire of ordinary people for life. In their hearts, although they were lowly, and as Sword Slaves, they had to endure beatings after beatings, there was one thought in their hearts. That was, as long as they could endure the beatings until noon, even if they were covered with injuries, they would still be alive.
However, today.
These Sword Slaves knew that as long as they were sent into the Sword Testing Grounds, they would no longer be able to have the most ordinary thought, and that was to live.
They knew that today, when they were sent into the Sword Testing Grounds, they only had one thought, and that was to be reincarnated into a good life. They didn't want to be Sword Slaves who could be slaughtered by others, but to be strong.
Just when these lowly Sword Slaves had this thought in their hearts, the seats in the Sword Testing Grounds were already filled to the brim. All the invited guests of the Qin family had arrived.
Qin Wentian, who was sitting in the middle of the Sword Testing Grounds, was still in a trance. Qin Jian hadn't reported to him yet, and he didn't know if the mysterious person who had secretly helped Qin Feng last night had appeared. He didn't know if Qin Jian had followed his orders, or if he had killed Qin Feng in the prison, so that he would never be able to step out of the prison ever again.
Just when Qin Wentian was in a state of unease, he heard a disciple reporting, "The four Supreme Elders have arrived!"
After the sound of the report, four white-haired old men with solemn expressions appeared on the Sword Testing Grounds. Qin Wentian led all the branch leaders and disciples of the Qin family out of their seats, kneeling on one knee, and respectfully called out, "The Clan Leader of the Qin family, Qin Wentian, has led the disciples of the Qin family to welcome the four Supreme Elders!"
After receiving the silent approval of the four Supreme Elders, when Qin Wentian led the kneeling crowd to greet them, a look of bewilderment flashed across his eyes. He silently murmured in his heart, "They are all here. Could it be that Jian 'er made a mistake and failed to complete this task?"
The "they" Qin Wentian was referring to were the four Supreme Elders of the Qin family. Ever since the day Qin Ming and Qin Bai were beaten up by Qin Feng, Qin Wentian hadn't been able to sleep well for a day and two nights after he found out about the mysterious person. He carefully analyzed the situation layer by layer, and finally concluded that the mysterious person who had secretly helped Qin Feng recover his Sword Soul and imparted the technique to him was none other than one of the four Supreme Elders of the Qin family.
Hence, when he saw the arrival of the four Supreme Elders, his heart was in a state of unease.
When he sat down uneasily, he saw Qin Jian rushing over from outside the Sword-Testing Grounds. When he saw the bewildered expression on Qin Jian's face, he was even more bewildered in his heart. He silently murmured to himself, "Could it be that everything was as I guessed? Jian 'er was obstructed by the mysterious person and failed?"
Only after Qin Jian walked in front of him and whispered a few words into his ears did the absent-minded Qin Wentian finally regain his composure. "Jian 'er, did you really finish him off?" he asked in a light voice.
Qin Jian silently nodded his head and softly said, "Father! Don't worry, I did it myself. It's a pity that I didn't manage to catch that mysterious person! "
After hearing Qin Jian say that he had killed Qin Feng, Qin Wentian silently nodded his head to the two disciples who had been waiting outside the Sword-Testing Grounds for a long time.
After the disciples who had been waiting outside had left, Qin Wentian silently murmured, "Jian 'er, did you get the promissory note of ten thousand taels of silver from Zhang Lin?"
Actually, Zhang Lin's guess was not wrong. Qin Wentian had indeed sent someone to kill Qin Feng. He still had to return the ten thousand taels of silver. The only difference was that he had changed the creditor.
Qin Jian silently shook his head and softly said, "Father! I will send someone to get the promissory note now! "
Qin Wentian silently shook his head and a smile appeared on his face. He softly said, "Jian 'er, I have already sent someone to get the promissory note!"
Qin Wentian, who was treacherous and meticulous, had already sent two of his most trusted disciples to the Sword Slave Prison where Qin Feng was imprisoned. After Qin Wentian learned the accurate information from Qin Jian, he heaved a long sigh of relief in his heart. He signaled for Qin Jian to withdraw first. He silently murmured in his heart, "Qin Feng, even if you have the help of the mysterious person, so what? You will still die!"
Just as Qin Wentian and Qin Jian were whispering to each other, the loud voice of a disciple rang out, "It's time! The Sword-Testing Grounds officially begins! "
After the disciple's loud voice faded away, Qin Wentian stood up from his seat and told the Qin family about the Sword-Testing Day's origin and purpose. After he finished, he commanded, "Disciples of the Qin family, enter the Sword-Testing Grounds."
