I don't know if it's a problem with his physical constitution or just plain bad luck.
Wherever he goes, he is always ridiculed and mocked by others.
So he was very unhappy with the expressions of these people.
And he heard it too—the Su family's name being dragged through the mud.
Wang Teng of the Wang family had been accepted as a direct disciple of the Netherworld Sect and was now forcing Miss Su to be his wife.
But it was none of his business.
"I didn't expect there was such a stupid guy like Fei Yangyang, who even lost his entire family's lives for a woman."
Qin Tian sneered in his heart.
Was it worth it? For a woman?
"Master, even if I die in this life, I'd rather jump into an abyss than become a woman's bootlicker!"
Qin Tian declared firmly in his mind.
He was utterly disdainful of Fei Yangyang's actions.
He had seen all kinds of women in his life.
Was Miss Su really so beautiful that men would turn into her lapdogs?
Others might.
But he, Qin Tian, would never be one of them.
On the contrary, ever since he left his family to train, he had met countless stunning women. Yet, he had never been obsessed with any of them.
In the end, it was always them who fell for him because of his unique charm.
"Well, your character is something I trust in," Mu Chen responded with a light chuckle.
Meanwhile, at the front of the carriage procession, a young girl in a light blue dress clenched her fists.
Her graceful figure trembled slightly, her pretty face flushed with anger.
"Damn you, Wang Teng! Just wait until Brother Su Yi returns—I'll make sure you pay!"
Su Qingshuang gritted her teeth.
Soon, the carriage team arrived at the gates of the Su family mansion.
The atmosphere inside was heavy, as if an invisible mountain weighed upon every Su family member's heart.
"The Su family has arrived. Everyone, move the goods into the warehouse!"
A burly man from the Su family jumped off the spirit beast carriage and began directing the others.
"Brother Qin, we've reached the Su family. You can rest here for a few days."
"You saved us this time. The family will surely hold a banquet in your honor."
The man, Su Lin, smiled warmly at Qin Tian.
"Qin Tian, thank you so much. Please stay—give our Su family a chance to repay you."
Su Qingshuang, her fair skin glowing under the sunlight, spoke softly, her starry eyes filled with gratitude.
"You're too kind," Qin Tian replied with a faint smile.
During the journey, the Su family convoy had been ambushed by bandits.
Their leader, a cultivator at the peak of the first level of the Supernatural Power Realm, had not only sought to rob them but also set his sights on Su Qingshuang, the third daughter of the Su family.
Just as despair had begun to settle in, Qin Tian had stepped forward and slain the enemy leader, saving the entire convoy—and Su Qingshuang.
The shock and admiration on everyone's faces had been priceless.
He loved that feeling.
And he had noticed something else—ever since he saved her, Su Qingshuang seemed to regard him with a certain… fondness.
If he stayed a few more days, he was confident that, with his natural charm, this little beauty would undoubtedly fall for him.
Su Qingshuang's appearance was more than satisfactory.
Her long, silky black hair cascaded down her back, framing delicate, exquisite features.
Her bright, intelligent eyes sparkled like stars, and her slender neck and graceful figure only added to her allure.
Qin Tian didn't mind taking her as his woman.
His gaze lingered on her curves for a moment before he nodded in approval.
Yes, this figure is more than acceptable.
Su Qingshuang, noticing his gaze, stiffened slightly.
Why is he looking at me like that?
The way his eyes roamed over her body reminded her uncomfortably of the lecherous men who often coveted her.
"Su Xiaotian, if you remain stubborn, the Su family's destruction will be on your hands!"
A harsh voice suddenly rang out from inside the mansion.
A group of people strode out, led by a plump, bearded middle-aged man whose very appearance screamed villain.
Huang Yuantu's beady eyes immediately landed on Su Qingshuang.
A greasy smirk spread across his face.
"Ah, if it isn't Miss Su?"
"Huang Yuantu! What are you doing in my Su family's home?" Su Qingshuang's voice turned icy.
Huang Yuantu was the head of the Huang family, one of the four great families of Qingfeng City—alongside the Su, Wang, and Li families.
The Su and Li families had decent relations, while the Wang and Huang families were close allies.
And Huang Yuantu? A snake in human skin.
Su Qingshuang had nothing but contempt for him.
"Miss Shuang'er, your family head is being unreasonable. You should persuade him to let Miss Xue'er marry Master Wang Teng."
"Otherwise… the Su family will be wiped from existence."
Huang Yuantu's smirk widened.
"You—!"
Su Qingshuang trembled with fury, her delicate hands clenching into fists.
A green sword materialized in her grip as she raised it, ready to strike—
"Shuang'er!"
A stern voice cut through the tension.
Su Qingshuang froze.
At the mansion's threshold stood a dignified middle-aged man, his sharp features still bearing traces of the handsome youth he once was.
"Father!"
Huang Yuantu cast a smug glance at Su Xiaotian.
"Su Xiaotian, think carefully."
"Don't let your stubbornness bury the entire Su family."
With that, he turned to leave—but not before shooting Qin Tian a venomous glare.
This brat ruined my plans.
He had intended to kidnap Su Qingshuang and use her to force Su Xiaotian and Su Qingxue into submission.
But Qin Tian had interfered.
Mark my words—he'll pay for this.
Qin Tian met his gaze coldly.
He had sensed the killing intent in that look.
And now, this Master Wang Teng wanted to take Su Qingshuang as well?
A surge of displeasure rose within him.
After all, in his mind, Su Qingshuang was already his woman.
Because in Qin Tian's world—
Any beautiful woman who showed him the slightest affection belonged to him.
