Fang Ruolin nodded, glancing at the men Zhou Xuan had knocked down, and gritted her teeth, "When my father arrives, we will definitely make the Sun family pay the price."
"Miss Fang, you don't need to worry. Take Ling'er and go."
Fang Ruolin felt slightly reassured.
"Ling'er, let's go."
She pulled Lu Ling'er and walked towards the exit.
Lu Ling'er looked back at Zhou Xuan with concern.
Fang Ruolin, however, shook her head, "Don't worry, Zhou Xuan can definitely handle it."
"Brother Xuan, be careful..."
Staying here would not only be unhelpful but would also implicate Brother Xuan.
Ling'er thought about it and reluctantly left with Fang Ruolin.
Old Master Sun had been watching Zhou Xuan.
His expression was somewhat grim.
Zhou Xuan actually dared to openly injure his people?
Once this matter was exposed, how could he, the head of the Sun family, maintain his dignity?
Seeing this, Sun Zhibiao hurried to Old Master Sun's side and whispered, "Grandfather, let's leave here first. I'm afraid Zhou Xuan will retaliate..."
"Shut up!"
Old Master Sun slapped Sun Zhibiao on the head.
Sun Zhibiao clutched his head and glared at Zhou Xuan unwillingly.
The other people in the private room had already sensed that the situation was not good and had long since fled.
"Zhou Xuan, if you don't want to die, then refine two hundred Condensing Spirit Pills for our Sun family. I can overlook this matter of the treasure!"
Old Master Sun finally spoke.
Zhou Xuan sneered, "Old Master Sun, you truly have a nerve. Two hundred Condensing Spirit Pills, why don't you just go and rob someone?"
Old Master Sun's face darkened.
Zhou Xuan sneered, "Even if you have the materials for refining artifacts, what does it matter? With limited refining skills and the lack of favorable timing and conditions, success is impossible. You still want to refine Condensing Spirit Pills? You're simply delusional!"
Old Master Sun was choked into silence, only staring at Zhou Xuan hatefully.
"Even if you can't refine them."
"You can get a hundred from the Fang family for me!"
"Or, at the time, even one would do. I need it urgently!"
This Old Master Sun was indeed no ordinary old fox, actually trying to use this incident to obtain the Condensing Spirit Pills.
Zhou Xuan felt that the latter few sentences were utter nonsense.
Zhou Xuan chuckled, "Old Master Sun, if you truly think I'm a fool, then you are gravely mistaken. Do you think I would believe your words, you old scoundrel?"
Old Master Sun's expression changed dramatically.
He hadn't expected Zhou Xuan to be completely unafraid!
"I don't need you to let me go, and you don't need to test me."
"Everything you've done is nothing more than for your son, Sun Tianyou."
"What, surprised that I've seen through your thoughts?"
Zhou Xuan smiled faintly, "To tell you the truth, Old Master Sun, I guessed it long ago."
"You..."
"But, do you think if these matters get out, the Sun family's reputation will truly be better than it is now?"
"The dignified Sun family actually had their ancestral treasures scattered abroad by an unknown outsider?"
"Does this signify that the Sun family is already in decline?"
"Oh dear, I wonder if those cultivation masters will still choose to serve your family!"
"Are you threatening me?"
Old Master Sun's eyes widened.
Zhou Xuan shrugged, "If you feel you can interpret it that way, then consider it a threat from me. It doesn't matter." httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Zhou Xuan's words left Old Master Sun speechless.
Although he was furious, he also understood that Zhou Xuan was telling the truth.
"Fine, you're formidable!"
Old Master Sun took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart.
"You, a mere brat, dare to speak such arrogant words. If I, Old Master Sun, die, I will drag you down with me!"
Old Master Sun trembled with rage.
Zhou Xuan, however, remained unconcerned, "Old Master Sun, save your breath."
"It seems Old Master Sun doesn't believe in my capabilities."
He snorted coldly and pointed a finger at Old Master Sun's chest. Instantly, Old Master Sun felt his life force rapidly draining away.
Old Master Sun's pupils contracted, and he looked at Zhou Xuan in disbelief.
"My cultivation has been crippled by you?"
"My lifelong reputation as Sun, defeated by you, a mere brat?"
Zhou Xuan looked at Old Master Sun indifferently.
His hands moved, and the life force once again invaded Old Master Sun's body.
"Old Master Sun, I advise you to save your strength. Your son, Sun Tianyou, is in a critical condition. If you don't want him to live, then quickly leave here."
"Otherwise, if you miss me, you'll have no further opportunities!"
Old Master Sun was stunned upon hearing this, "What did you say?"
Zhou Xuan walked towards him step by step and said coldly, "I'll say it again, get lost immediately, and don't force me to act."
"Good! Good! Good!"
Sun Zhibiao quickly pulled his grandfather, "Don't confront him directly. Zhou Xuan is truly miraculous. Forget it, Grandfather, let's trust him this once."
"What if it actually works?"
"If he weren't capable, could that old man from the Fang family treat him as an honored guest?"
Old Master Sun hesitated, his expression softening for a moment.
Zhou Xuan watched the grandfather and grandson slowly yield with leisure.
From the very beginning, he had not been worried about these ten treasures being revealed and sought after by the Sun family.
He was aware of everything in the capital.
From the Condensing Spirit Pills at the birthday banquet to now owing the Sun family a great favor.
What he wanted was for the five great families of the capital to fall under his feet, one by one!
Old Master Sun seemed to have also realized it.
"You... you! Your scheme is so profound!"
"You planned everything from the beginning?"
Sun Zhibiao was still foolishly advising his grandfather.
Who would have thought that Old Master Sun had already understood Zhou Xuan's meticulously planned sequence of events in the blink of an eye?
Such meticulous thoughts and strategic wisdom were like Zhuge Liang reborn!
Seeing that he understood, Zhou Xuan got straight to the point, "So, do you want to owe this favor, your Sun family?"
Didn't his Sun family want to ally with the Qin family?
He would first plant a time bomb, believing that this bomb would eventually explode on his enemies!
Old Master Sun closed his eyes.
With a long sigh, he nodded, "My Sun family acknowledges your favor, and we will not forget it!"
"Then how can I trust that your Sun family won't discard me once you're done?"
Sun Zhibiao rejoiced and quickly said, "We can make an oath, or write proof, in short, whatever you want, we can give it to you!"
"No need for such trouble."
"Just keep it in mind. I could save your father, Sun Tianyou, and I can take his life again!"
These words made both Sun Zhibiao and Old Master Sun freeze.
Zhou Xuan was unfathomable!
"Grandfather! As long as Dad wakes up, won't this world be dominated by the Qin family alone!"
"I've had enough of being looked down upon by that scoundrel Qin Chao!"
Old Master Sun bowed to Zhou Xuan, "Young friend Zhou, please accompany me to the hospital."
"Let's go!"
Afterward, Zhou Xuan saw the withered Sun Tianyou in the hospital.
His eyes were sunken, and his body was emaciated. Although he was well cared for, all the problems of a vegetative state were present.
This was unavoidable.
"I have searched all over the country, yet no one could restore him to normalcy."
"I do not ask for much. As long as you can give him consciousness and find the true culprit who harmed him back then, my entire Sun family will willingly serve you!"
Zhou Xuan immediately seized the information regarding the truth and the culprit.
With his sharp mind, he immediately connected it to the other four great families in the capital.
There was hope!
It seemed fate had brought him what he sought after such a difficult search!
