"Ah! Help!"
"Xiao'er, come save us quickly!"
"We know we were wrong! We don't want to die!"
Empress Dowager Wen and Emperor Qinwu were in so much pain that their heads were covered in cold sweat, screaming frantically.
They truly never expected Qin Yu to be so ruthless!
To actually attack them without any hesitation!
Seeing that Qin Xiao remained completely unmoved, Qin Yu gritted his teeth and struck viciously!
"Qin Xiao, you chose this yourself! Don't wait until you lose your parents to know regret!"
Qin Xiao cast a disdainful glance at Qin Yu.
"I simply do not believe you truly dare to do it."
"They are your parents after all, how could you be so vicious."
"Don't just talk without acting. Come on, if you have the guts, kill them. In any case, I won't believe you are that ruthless."
These words caused the veins on Qin Yu's forehead to bulge, completely shattering his composure.
Qin Xiao's ability to fan the flames was simply too strong.
It left everyone dumbfounded.
Emperor Qinwu and Empress Dowager Wen looked sluggish and stunned.
But before the two of them could even react.
"Ugh ahhh!"
"Qin Xiao, you asked for this!"
"Even if I die, I will make you regret it until your heart breaks!"
Qin Yu frantically thrust his dagger.
Squelch! Squelch!
Again and again!
The sound of the dagger piercing flesh rang out continuously!
The clothes on Empress Dowager Wen and Emperor Qinwu were instantly torn to shreds!
Their bodies were covered in dense, bloody holes, dripping with blood—a gruesome sight!
Seeing this, Qin Rumeng and Qin Ruyan cried out in alarm, covering their mouths as tears fell uncontrollably.
"Ah!!!"
Empress Dowager Wen and Emperor Qinwu let out shrill, miserable screams. The pain caused their entire bodies to spasm and twitch relentlessly.
The two struggled desperately, wildly swinging their fists to hit Qin Yu. But Qin Yu seemed to have completely lost control. His eyes were filled with madness as he slaughtered frantically, completely disregarding Empress Dowager Wen and the Emperor.
Like a madman, he viciously stabbed Empress Dowager Wen and Emperor Qinwu over a dozen times!
"Hahaha! Qin Xiao, are you scared now?! This is the price for provoking me!"
"Did you really think I wouldn't dare? If I want to kill them, I just have to lift my hand!"
"I just want to see you weeping bitterly in regret!"
"Qin Xiao, why aren't you kneeling down to hand over the military power and yield the throne to me?!"
Qin Yu's face was covered in blood, looking hideous and terrifying as he revealed a demonic smile to Qin Xiao.
"If you don't do as I say, believe it or not, I will kill Imperial Father and Imperial Mother right now!"
Qin Xiao's eyes held a playful look as he chuckled lightly.
He raised a finger and pointed at the two dying people.
"The two of them are almost dead. What else do you plan to use to threaten me?"
Qin Yu's threat was utterly ridiculous to him.
He looked down at Qin Yu as if watching a clown.
This grand drama was truly too interesting!
"What?" Qin Yu turned pale with fright and hastily looked at Emperor Qinwu and Empress Dowager Wen.
At this moment, the two were covered in blood, their faces entirely drained of color, and their pupils were beginning to dilate. It seemed they could breathe their last at any moment.
Qin Yu was horrified, his heart suddenly clenching.
Seeing blood slowly oozing from their heart areas, he was instantly filled with extreme terror.
He never expected that in his blind rage, he had actually stabbed them in the heart!
"No! You two cannot die!"
"I clearly didn't want to kill you! Why did your hearts have to crash into my dagger!"
Qin Yu's eyes were bloodshot, his face smeared with tears and snot.
The hand holding the dagger trembled.
With a clatter, the dagger fell to the ground.
With a twisted expression, he grabbed their shoulders and shook them frantically.
"Wake up right now! Hurry!"
"If you die, how am I supposed to be the emperor? Qin Xiao will definitely kill me!"
"Imperial Father, Imperial Mother, you love me the most, please wake up!"
Qin Yu had gone completely mad, screaming in absolute frenzy.
Under the violent shaking, Emperor Qinwu and Empress Dowager Wen seemed to experience a terminal lucidity. They looked at Qin Xiao and slowly spoke.
"Xiao'er, Imperial Mother was wrong. It was Imperial Mother who was bewitched by Qin Yu. I wronged you in so many things and failed to give you enough love."
On the brink of death, Empress Dowager Wen finally figured out many things.
For the first time, the gaze she directed at Qin Xiao carried a mother's love.
"Xiao'er, before I die, your mother hopes to obtain your forgiveness."
"In the next life... in the next life... I still wish to be your mother... to properly make it up to you."
Empress Dowager Wen looked at Qin Xiao with a face full of maternal affection, a look of hope gleaming in her eyes.
Qin Xiao looked at Empress Dowager Wen, and suddenly, he laughed.
"Hahaha!"
His mocking laughter echoed through the heavens and the earth!
So Empress Dowager Wen knew everything all along!
She knew she had treated Qin Xiao poorly.
She knew she had made mistakes!
Qin Xiao's expression abruptly turned freezing cold, his eyes staring down at Empress Dowager Wen with total indifference.
"What do you think you are! You still want to be my mother in the next life! You are unworthy!"
This sentence truly disgusted Qin Xiao.
His parents didn't love him in this life, yet they hoped for the next?
If they didn't love him, so be it. He, Qin Xiao, would rely on himself!
Standing alone above the heavens and the earth, he had no need for parents!
Empress Dowager Wen's pale face suddenly flushed red as she spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Cough, cough, cough... I'm... I'm sorry..."
The light in her eyes shattered inch by inch, and tears spilled from the corners of Empress Dowager Wen's eyes.
They were tears of remorse.
She still wanted to say something to Qin Xiao, but at the final moment, she only opened her mouth and ultimately collapsed into the pool of blood.
Even in death, her eyes remained open, filled with guilt and self-blame.
It was as if she were saying that she had failed her child, that she was an absolute sinner through and through!
Toward this, Qin Xiao only felt apathy.
Regretting only at death's door?
What were you doing when you were alive?
"Xiao'er," Emperor Qinwu glanced at Empress Dowager Wen's corpse, his gaze desolate.
They were husband and wife after all. With his wife dead, it was inevitable that he felt despair in his heart.
"I do not expect you to forgive your father."
At the very last moment, Emperor Qinwu finally saw Qin Xiao's heart clearly.
Heart of stone, ruthless and decisive—he was no longer the Qin Xiao who once yearned for his parents' affection.
"To see you achieve what you have today, I am truly gratified."
"Your father believes that the Great Qin will rise in your hands and become the greatest overlord of the Seven Kingdoms!"
Emperor Qinwu's face was written with pride as he smiled at Qin Xiao, "Xiao'er, you are our pride!"
"After I die, perhaps thousands of years from now, future generations will still sing praises that I, Emperor Qinwu, had such a formidable child!"
Qin Xiao locked eyes with Emperor Qinwu, his gaze utterly devoid of emotion.
This was the first time Emperor Qinwu had praised him in front of everyone.
A child indeed yearns for their parents' love, wanting their parents to view them as their pride.
But he, Qin Xiao, did not need it!
"We have already severed our father-son relationship."
"And you, Emperor Qinwu, will never appear in the Qin family genealogy! Nor is it possible for you to receive even a shred of glory!"
"I will seal away all your past, leaving you to become a wandering, lonely ghost in history!"
Qin Xiao's eyes were as freezing as ten-thousand-year-old ice.
For a person who cared so deeply about his face and reputation, destroying his past glory would bring him far more despair than simply killing him!
Hearing this, the pride on Emperor Qinwu's face froze.
He never expected that Qin Xiao would be so completely unmindful of their flesh-and-blood ties!
"A ghost in history... this is crueler than killing me!"
Emperor Qinwu's face was overwhelmed by a profound sense of loss and sorrow.
In that instant, his heart shattered into countless pieces.
He had indeed once been a formidable ruler.
But now...
He was nothing but an absolute failure.
Even in death, he would be too ashamed to face his ancestors!
All of this was solely because of his own foolishness!
This was the man who had once shaken the world, the one who had single-handedly pushed the Great Qin to its absolute peak!
Emperor Qinwu wept bitter tears, his hands clenched so tightly that his fingernails dug deep into his flesh, leaving bloody marks.
"I brought this upon myself. I failed Qin Xiao. I had such an extraordinary child, yet I refused to cherish him, choosing instead to lavish all my love upon an ungrateful wretch!"

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.

Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
