"Old Seven, the weak can't win against the strong. We have no right to speak in the family. Now that the family head is in prison, do you think you can win against the elders? "
"Humph! I'm not convinced! What did the family head do wrong? Just because he refused to submit to the traitor Yun family? Then he suffered a great calamity. If that's the case, what's the difference between our Qin family and those fence-sitters? "The man seemed extremely angry. When he spoke, he didn't forget to wave his fists.
"Shh! Old Seven, lower your voice. The capital is the Yun family's world now. Are you tired of living by saying this? "
Old Seven shouted, "I just can't stand it! Our Qin family is full of good men. Even if we can't sacrifice our lives for the country and uphold justice, we can't help the evildoers, right? "
"The clan has raised us for so many years to make us men of indomitable spirit, not to raise a bunch of spineless cowards. I, Qin Qiping, am not convinced today. If you're a man, stand up for me. I'm going to save the family head. "
As he spoke, he pulled out the long saber in his hand with a choking sound. "Anyone who tries to stop me is making life difficult for me. We'll meet on the battlefield. "
It had to be said that as soon as he stepped forward, two other men stepped forward in a flash. They all stood behind the Seventh Brother.
"Old Seven, we're going to fight with you."
"Yes, the family head has always been good to us. If you want me to watch as the Patriarch is framed, I can't turn a blind eye to it. "
There were nine people in this group.
The three who stood up were undoubtedly the most radical and had the closest relationship with the family head, Qin Han.
There were a few others who maintained a neutral attitude. Psychologically, they were more partial to the family head, Qin Han. They knew that the family head was not willing to betray the Qin family, so he was imprisoned by the elders.
The remaining five or six were the trusted subordinates of the elders.
Those people sneered as they looked at each other, and one of them laughed gloomily. "Seventh Brother Qin, do you think you'll be able to rescue Qin Han with just these abilities of yours? Fight his way out of the Qin family's manor? Even if you can kill your way out of the Qin family's manor, do you think you can kill your way out with the current level of defense in the capital? Not to mention killing their way out of Royal City, it's unknown if they can even kill their way to the city gates. "
"That's right. Seventh Brother Qin, you are too naive. Do you think you can soar to the sky just by being hot-blooded? Qin Han didn't know what was good for him and deserved to die. You've always been bribed by him with small favors. Do you really think he takes you seriously? "
"If he really took you seriously, would he disregard the survival of his family and the lives of his clansmen? Why are you wholeheartedly opposing the Yun Family? "
Qin Laoqi was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He cursed loudly, "Bullshit! Did the Patriarch not care about the survival of the clan? Do you think that relying on the Yun Family and helping the evildoers is considered having a future? When the Palace's army arrives and the Yun Family is annihilated, who would care about the survival of the Qin family? Do you think the academy will still let the Qin family live? "
"Hmph! Even if that day comes, that's a matter for the future. Now that the Qin family doesn't rely on the Yun Family, they won't be able to survive this ordeal. Rather than thinking about the future, why not just survive this ordeal. Moreover, the Yun Family has a backer. If the Yin-Yang Academy really had the guts, why would they allow the Yun Family to cause such a ruckus for so long without showing any signs of support? "
That Seventh Brother Qin obviously wouldn't be able to bicker, so he didn't argue any further. With a step, he charged into the prison.
"Stop right there!"
Bam bam bam bam. A group of people had already started fighting.
Other than a few neutral clansmen who didn't participate in the fight, the five to six clan elders' confidants were up against Qin Han's three confidants.
In an instant, it became a situation where they had the advantage in numbers.
Qin Han, who was inside, was instantly alarmed. He shouted, "Stop, all of you stop! You're all men of the Qin family. No matter the reason, it's shameful for your clansmen to fight amongst themselves! Seventh Brother Qin, listen to me. I, Qin Han, would rather die than be disgraced. This is my own choice. It has nothing to do with you. It's a big matter for the clan, and you don't need to sacrifice your lives in vain. "
Obviously, Qin Han didn't want these loyal clansmen to die for him.
He also knew that it was impossible for Seventh Brother Qin and the others to save him. If things got out of hand, it would be a dead end.
"Remember, I, Qin Han, have already made up my mind to die. None of you should sympathize with me, and don't think about saving me. If anyone bleeds and loses their life because of me, not only will I, Qin Han, not be grateful, but I will also spit on you! "
Qin Han's tone was resolute and decisive.
Seventh Brother Qin and his two companions looked at each other, their expressions incomparably painful. The weapons in their hands, however, drooped down powerlessly.
If the head of the clan had already made up his mind to die, then no matter how hard they tried, it would all be in vain and meaningless.
Although their weapons were against each other, they were, after all, clansmen of the same clan. Although the clan elder and the head of the clan had obviously fallen out, they were all working for the Qin family, so they didn't have to be ruthless.
One of the clan elder's confidants said, "Seventh Brother Qin, we're all brothers who eat from the same pot. Don't make things difficult for us. We'll pretend that what happened before never happened. To put it bluntly, we're all working for the clan. The direction of the clan can't be decided by us. Why should we worry about it? Let the higher-ups of the clan worry about it. "
"Right, we've been through thick and thin together, why should we kill each other? We can't decide where the clan should go. It's fine to rely on the Yun family, or to turn the tide in the academy in the future. After all, the Qin family is a small force that survives in the cracks. The most important thing for a small force is still to survive. "
These people spoke one after another.
But they didn't pay attention, in the darkness, a figure like a leopard scurried over and snuck into the depths of the cell.
Qin Han didn't know when a person had stood in front of him.
It wasn't until the other person lightly kicked his foot twice that he suddenly woke up and opened his eyes in surprise.
In the dark night, he faintly saw a figure standing in front of him, looking at him indifferently.
This gaze looked so familiar, but looking at the face, it was extremely unfamiliar.
However, Qin Han's intuition told him that he definitely knew this person. Because this gaze suddenly reminded him of a year ago …
"You … you're Xiao Yi?" Qin Han tried to suppress his voice. Because he was too excited, his voice sounded a bit shaky.
Qin Yi nodded lightly, "I didn't expect that you and I would meet again under such circumstances. You've been compromising for the clan for half your life, and in the end, you've ended up like this. "
Qin Han's expression was miserable, "This is my fate, I accept it. Did you specially come to the Qin family just to see me make a fool of myself? "
Qin Yi smiled indifferently, "I have no interest in seeing you make a fool of yourself. However, at the critical moment, you didn't lose the dignity of a man, a martial artist. Originally, I was going to return to the Qin family on behalf of my sister. Now it seems that if I don't take you away, I won't be able to explain to my sister when I go back. "
