Qin Hanchu chuckled, this kid had a good business sense.
His own car, and he was charging people for photos.
This was truly a business with no capital!
Qin Hanchu extended his hand and said, "How much did you collect? Give it to me!"
"What do you mean?" the young man frowned.
Qin Hanchu took out his car key and unlocked the car, then said, "Now you know what I mean, right?"
Seeing Qin Hanchu unlock the car, the young man was too shocked to speak.
He never expected that such a plainly dressed young man would be the owner of this Wu Shen.
Most importantly, he was caught making money with someone else's car.
The young men and women who were taking photos looked at Qin Hanchu with envy.
"Brother, you're so rich, you shouldn't care about my little bit of money."
"I only collected a thousand yuan."
"This amount is not even enough for you to have a meal."
The young man said with an awkward smile.
"A thousand yuan? That's quite a bit."
"Enough for me to refuel once."
"If you don't pay, I'll break one of your legs, how about that?"
Qin Hanchu said with a smile.
Hearing this, the young man immediately cowered.
Anyone who could afford a Wu Shen definitely had a powerful background.
Even if Qin Hanchu broke his leg, no one would stand up for him.
Thinking of this, the young man quickly gave all the money he had collected to Qin Hanchu.
For Qin Hanchu, this thousand yuan was indeed nothing.
But the fact that the young man used his car to make money made Qin Hanchu very displeased.
Qin Hanchu checked the car's paintwork and found no damage before leaving under the envious gaze of the crowd.
If the paintwork had been scratched because of the photos, then this young man would have been crying.
As soon as Qin Hanchu left, screams of horror echoed from the beach.
Ten minutes later, the beach was cordoned off by law enforcement officers.
"Chief, the deceased's identity has been confirmed, it's Chairman Sun Guangyi of the Sun family."
"The others are also members of the Sun family."
"I took a look just now, and no one had any external injuries."
"Chairman Sun's neck was broken."
Upon hearing his subordinate's report, the leader of the law enforcement officers said in disbelief, "Sun Guangyi was a late-stage Grandmaster. His neck was broken? This... what kind of powerhouse could do this?"
"In any case, this case is not something we can handle."
The law enforcement leader nodded, "Keep it sealed. Wait for the Sun family to arrive, and I'll report it."
Late at night, at the Zhou family villa.
"What did you say? Sun Guangyi had his neck broken?" exclaimed the Zhou family chairman.
"Yes, and the cause of death for Sun Guangyi's companions has not yet been determined."
"We only know there were no external injuries."
The Zhou family chairman fell silent.
Who dared to kill Sun Guangyi!
"Who has the Sun family offended recently?" the Zhou family chairman asked.
"We haven't heard of any grudges."
Just then, the Zhou family chairman remembered something.
Sun Guangyi had wanted to seek revenge at their villa complex. Could it be related to this matter?
"Go and investigate something for me..."
Receiving the Zhou family chairman's order, the subordinate hurried out.
In less than ten minutes, the person returned.
"Chairman, I've investigated what you asked me to."
"Hong Juncai went out at six in the afternoon and returned to the villa at nine-thirty in the evening!"
"I had a friend in the traffic bureau check his Wu Shen."
"He appeared near where Sun Guangyi was killed."
"Could he have done it?"
"But how is that possible!"
"Hong Juncai is not yet thirty years old, how could he kill Sun Guangyi, a late-stage Grandmaster?"
The Zhou family chairman did not reply immediately. After a long silence, he said, "What's impossible about it? The Nine Great Ancient Clans have entered the world, and countless prodigies from those clans are walking among the cities. Each of these prodigies possesses terrifying strength. Grandmasters are like ants before them."
The existence of the Nine Great Ancient Clans was no longer a secret!
Although ordinary people were not yet aware, prominent families like the Zhou and Sun families already knew.
As Chairman Zhou said, the Nine Great Ancient Clans had sent many prodigies into the mortal world to consolidate their control over the Divine Continent.
The purpose of the Nine Great Ancient Clans was simple: to compete for territory and enhance the influence of their respective families.
His Zhou family had received notification from the Zhou Ancient Clan some time ago.
Chairman Zhou naturally did not dare to oppose the Zhou Ancient Clan, so he had pledged his loyalty to them.
"You mean Sun Guangyi offended an ancient clan?"
"Did he refuse to pledge loyalty to the ancient clan, which led to his death?"
Chairman Zhou shook his head, "It's hard to say."
"There is no Hong surname among the Nine Great Ancient Clans. This Hong Juncai might not be from an ancient clan."
Chairman Zhou pondered for a moment, "Let's pretend we know nothing and don't provoke this Hong Juncai."
The Huangfu family of Modu.
As an old aristocratic family in Modu, although the Huangfu family had been severely weakened by Qin Hanchu, they had not collapsed.
After the Divine Continent ascended, Old Man Haiyun even achieved the Martial King realm.
With a Martial King realm expert in charge, the Huangfu family returned to the ranks of top aristocratic families.
Upon learning about the Sun family's affairs, Old Man Haiyun said, "It has nothing to do with us, don't meddle. Tell our clansmen to act low-key when they are out and about, and don't stir up trouble."
Having experienced the incident with Qin Hanchu, Old Man Haiyun knew the consequences of arrogance.
Now that the world was changing and strong individuals were emerging, his Huangfu family, though seemingly powerful, was merely a minor force.
The former Huangfu family was a vassal of the Nine Great Ancient Clans, so they were even more aware of their terrifying power.
Old Man Haiyun had seen through it; in this era, only by developing stealthily could one survive for a long time.
The matter of Sun Guangyi shocked the upper-class society of Modu.
The Sun family's Martial King realm expert was also alerted.
Others might not know the cause of death of the Sun family members, but this Martial King realm expert of the Sun family could tell.
These people had their hearts pierced by Xuanbing needles.
In other words, a Martial King had killed his Sun family members.
If it were a family in the mortal world, the Sun family would dare to find the killer and take revenge.
But the Sun family's Martial King feared that the culprit might be a powerful individual from an ancient clan.
"Old Ancestor, according to my investigation, the most suspicious person is someone named Hong Juncai."
"Sun Haozhe was severely injured by this person when he tried to buy a car."
"After this incident, Sun Guangyi sent a foreigner to avenge Sun Haozhe, but unexpectedly, he was killed by the other party."
"It is said that Hong Juncai used chopsticks to break the foreigner's knife, and then killed the foreigner with one move."
"A few days ago, Sun Guangyi also issued a challenge to Hong Juncai."
"It seems he went out tonight to intercept Hong Juncai."
"Most importantly, Hong Juncai appeared near the scene where Sun Guangyi was killed."
The Sun family ancestor asked in a deep voice, "How old is this Hong Juncai? What is his background?"
"His identity is suspected of being falsified, and he is no older than thirty."
The Sun family ancestor pondered and said, "With such strength at this age, his background must be extraordinary."
