Chapter 1178: Chapter 1178 Self-Destruction

Qing Xun pursued his victory, leaping forward as the green light of the Bibo Moon Flute flashed, aiming at Hong Ji’s chest.

Hong Ji was instantly terror-stricken, trembling as he pleaded, "Nephew, you can’t kill . I am your second uncle!"

Qing Xun felt a wave of desolation in his heart and said bitterly, "Did you ever truly treat

as family?"

Hong Ji’s eyes darted about as he said quickly, "Nephew, it wasn’t

being ruthless, it was Tian Xiaozi forcing . You have to understand your second uncle! I was thinking for the Zhulu family."

Qing Xun managed a bitter smile, the Bibo Moon Flute pressed against Hong Ji’s heart, as he said coldly, "Order, give

the Clan Leader position."

Hong Ji froze, his expression hesitant. Pleading was just to lull Qing Xun; unless absolutely necessary, how could he willingly hand over the Clan Leader position?

Seeing Qing Xun had restrained Hong Ji, Qin Sisi spread her Wings of Rainbow and flew back to Qing Xun. Jing Jing and Qing Pu halted their fight as well, Jing Jing returning to Qing Xun’s side, while Qing Pu stood not far away, watching them nervously.

Actually, Qing Pu faintly felt his father’s actions were questionable, but it was his father, so he could only support and help him.

Qing Xun’s eyes coldly stared at Hong Ji, who was sweating profusely, breath uneven, his eyes flickering, yet still refusing to speak the words of abdication.

Just as Qin Sisi intended to further threaten him, a commotion suddenly ca from across, and a nacing voice shouted, "Qing Xun, release Hong Ji Clan Leader, or I’ll kill your mother!"

Qing Xun abruptly looked up, discovering his mother Mrs. Ying being held hostage by the Third Heavenly Body, who held a gleaming dagger against Mrs. Ying’s throat.

"Mother!" Qing Xun’s face changed dramatically, and he shouted at the Third Heavenly Body, "If you dare harm a single hair on my mother, I swear I’ll tear you to pieces!"

The Third Heavenly Body revealed a sinister smile, speaking with a strange tone, "A life for a life, release Hong Ji Clan Leader, and I will free your mother."

As he spoke, he very carefully hid his body behind Mrs. Ying, leaving Qin Sisi and the others without a chance to attack. If they tried to act, Mrs. Ying would first be hard by a wave of Magic Energy.

"Mother!" A sobbing cry erupted from beside him, and Qing Rouhen ran over under Yun Wang’s protection.

Behind them staggered Jun Ying, blood flowing down his body as he walked.

Jun Ying reached Qing Xun, knelt with one leg, and said shafully, "I was unable to protect the lady."

Qing Xun pressed Jun Ying’s shoulder, and said in a serious tone, "Don’t say that, I know you’ve done your best."

Behind the Third Heavenly Body followed Hong Yuan and his wife, as well as nurous guards.

Mrs. Ying had given up magic practice after her husband Hong Zhi’s death, currently possessing only the strength of an Interdiate Magic Spirit, while Qing Rouhen had not received systematic training, only a magic instructor.

Even with Yun Wang and Jun Ying guarding them, they couldn’t match the opponent’s overwhelming numbers. Moreover, the Third Heavenly Body vilely adopted Tian Xiaozi’s cunning and ruthless nature, using Qing Xun’s safety to disrupt them, ultimately capturing Mrs. Ying, while Qing Rouhen escaped under Yun Wang’s desperate protection.

"Brother, quickly save mother." Qing Rouhen clutched Qing Xun’s arm pleadingly, tears flowing continuously.

"Don’t worry!" Qing Xun comfortingly squeezed Qing Rouhen’s hand, then turned to the Third Heavenly Body and said, "Fine, release my mother, and I’ll let Hong Ji go."

The Third Heavenly Body mocked coldly, "Let Hong Ji Clan Leader co over first."

"Release my mother first." Trusting soone like the Third Heavenly Body was truly difficult for Qing Xun.

Hong Yuan stepped forward beside Mrs. Ying, perhaps due to his recent loss of the Magic Source, his complexion was poor, giving a weak impression.

Qing Xun suddenly saw Hong Yuan and felt a slight guilt, for without the Magic Source, Hong Yuan was essentially crippled.

But he quickly realized how ironic it was to feel guilty toward Hong Yuan.

Hong Yuan cast Qing Xun a sinister glance, turned, and viciously ripped the fabric at Mrs. Ying’s shoulder, with several sounds of tearing fabric, pulling off one of Mrs. Ying’s sleeves, revealing her fair, smooth arm.

"Hong Yuan, what are you doing?" Qing Xun shouted angrily, pointing at Hong Yuan.

Hong Yuan replied nastily, "If you won’t let my second brother co over, I’ll tear off all your mother’s clothes."

"You..." Qing Xun trembled with rage, unable to speak.

Qing Rouhen shouted despairingly, "Third Uncle, you are our third uncle! How can you do this?"

Hong Yuan yelled furiously, "Who is your third uncle? My elder brother died, giving you three mouthfuls of food in his na was good enough, yet you still want to be the most prestigious young master and miss of the Zhulu family, dream on! Even if everyone in the Zhulu family died, you’d never be Clan Leader."

Qin Sisi watched Hong Yuan’s twisted face and suddenly understood why good people often found themselves helplessly cornered by bad ones, not because good people weren’t strong enough, but because they adhered to principles while bad people could shalessly stoop to any level.

Hong Yuan grew angrier and prepared to tear off more of Mrs. Ying’s clothing when Qing Xun shouted "Stop
