Chapter 318: Chapter 311: The Undying Ancestor_1

The Innate Realm expert who carried the silver had even less on him, with only three hundred taels.

This indirectly indicated that the He Family’s economic strength was weaker.

Now it made sense as to why the He Family wanted to seize those hundred mu of fertile farmland. With the backing of an Innate Realm expert in the family and even more formidable forces, they naturally wanted to take full advantage of Qin Niu, a seemingly insignificant figure.

Not to take advantage of such an opportunity would be foolish.

He Sige was arrogant and flamboyant, and he was the actual controller of the He Family’s agricultural sector.

If he could exchange some average fertile fields for those hundred mu of prime farmland, even with over a dozen mu of barren land, it would be a significant contribution. He might even use this achievement to compete for the position of family head.

His calculations were meticulous, but unfortunately, he met a tough character.

After scouring the bodies for any valuables, Qin Niu said to Wang Wanyan and her father, “If Uncle Wang is worried about the He Family seeking revenge, there is another solution. I will now escort you into the city. You may find an inn there to stay at.”

“This is an excellent idea,”

Wang Furen immediately nodded in agreement.

“Then, gather your belongings, and I will take you there now.”

Qin Niu also happened to be going into the city to purchase a set of cultivation materials.

Especially the Invisibility Talisman from last time, he was extremely eager to obtain another one.

Owing such a huge favor to the mute girl, he certainly needed to repay it twofold in the future.

…

Soon, the Wang Family father and daughter came out with their female servant.

The luggage they brought wasn’t much.

Wang Furen might have considered that this was an escape for their lives, wishing to quickly flee out of the He Family’s pursuit range, so they left with just the essentials.

Bearing in mind the servant girl was brought along, it showed Wang Furen’s deep affection for this woman.

“This Sweaty Precious Horse is perfect for your travel, and there’s even a ready carriage; please get on,”

Qin Niu unceremoniously claimed the Sweaty Precious Horse for himself.

Only, he hadn’t anticipated that when he went to lead the horse, the creature, being extremely intelligent, reared up on its forelegs, struggling and neighing vehemently.

“Calm down.”

Qin Niu grasped the horse’s neck with his hand, pinning it so it could not move.

The Sweaty Precious Horse was much larger than an average steed; standing beside it, Qin Niu and the animal were not at all comparable in size.

Yet, Qin Niu’s cultivation was far superior, and it took little effort for him to subdue it.

“Alright, the four of you sit in the carriage, I will take the reins,”

Qin Niu sat on the shaft of the carriage, personally acting as the coachman for his fiancée.

The way was unobstructed, and there was no pursuit from He Family’s experts.

After leaving Shuangfeng Village, the carriage took to the main road, racing along at breakneck speed.

The Sweaty Precious Horse lived up to its reputation as a famed warhorse.

Its stamina and pulling power were both exceptional.

Following behind the carriage, a Green Ox was kicking up dust.

Qin Niu was worried that after they left, the He Family’s anger would fall upon the Green Ox, and they would simply slaughter it.

So, he brought it along.

Furthermore, in case they encountered experts from the He Family on the road, having the Green Ox with them could provide some support.

“After the upcoming intersection, we’ll be out of Jade Stream Town, and we should be safe,”

Wang Furen sat inside the carriage, occasionally lifting the curtain to look ahead.

The intangible pressure from the He Family made him extremely anxious.

Qin Niu, on the other hand, appeared unruffled.

It wasn’t just about killing He Sige; even if it were an esteemed elder like Elder Jiu Yin, as long as there was a chance, Qin Niu would strike without hesitation.

“Master, it looks like someone is chasing us from behind,”

Xiao Qing was unlike Wang Furen; as she sat inside the carriage accompanying Wang Wanyan, she would also occasionally glance back.

It was approaching evening now.

The sky was growing dark, and night was about to envelop the world completely.

Under normal circumstances, there should be no one out.

The people appearing behind them were almost certainly the He Family’s pursuers.

“Hurry up, faster, we must not let them catch us,”

Wang Furen urged continuously, seeing that they were close to escaping Jade Stream Town, he felt his life hanging by a thread.

“Dad, Ah Niu is already pushing the horse as fast as he can. Don’t rush him anymore,”
