The Revenge of the Reborn Supreme Sovereign

However, before she could pounce, Qin Fan sneered coldly. He swung his palm and fiercely slapped her across the face.

SMACK!

With the red print of five fingers instantly appearing on her cheek, Xu Jiayi was knocked back onto the bed.

Before she could get up, Qin Fan’s voice rang out.

"Tell me, how do you want to die!"

Tell—me—how—you—want—to—die!

Before she could snap out of her ecstasy, Qin Fan’s slap and subsequent words made her mind buzz.

In her panic, she was no longer aware of the burning sting on her face. Her mind just kept replaying Qin Fan’s words along with the incessant buzzing.

Covering her face, Xu Jiayi scrambled up from the bed. Her face was deathly pale and she trembled as she stammered, "Qin Fan, what-what-what do you mean by this?"

"I gave you a chance! I told you not to court death! But you decided to let my words go in one ear and out the other, is that it?" Qin Fan said with a cold snort, his gaze chilling as he stared at her.

"What are you talking about? I don’t understand!" Her heart raced faster than ever before, and Xu Jiayi swallowed repeatedly.

Could it be that the scheme was exposed? Impossible! That’s impossible!

"Colluding with Du Tiancong, creating an opportunity for him to get Yinuo drunk, and even having him send you a copy of the video, heh! Xu Jiayi, do you really think I wouldn’t dare to kill you? Or did you think I couldn’t bear to?"

As he spoke, Qin Fan’s face contorted with ferocious rage. He couldn’t stop recalling the misery he and Jiang Yinuo had suffered in his previous life. Now that he had returned to this life, facing the same pattern of events, how could he possibly tolerate it again?

An insane, boundless killing intent emanated from him.

Suddenly feeling the temperature plummet, Xu Jiayi shivered violently.

In her terror, she blurted out, "How did you know?"

The moment the words left her lips, she realized her mistake. But things had already reached this point; it was set in stone. At this thought, she suddenly began to shriek wildly, "Why? Why did it have to be that bitch Jiang Yinuo?! What do I lack compared to her? What! You can cast aside all your pride for her, but you won’t even spare me a single glance! Ah, ah, why, why! Qin Fan, I love you! I love you, and I don’t mind using any means necessary to have you!"

"But those means will only make you die faster! From the moment I met Jiang Yinuo, I would never allow anyone to harm her. She is my reverse scale. Touch her, and you die! You will die! Xu Jiayi, you know full well whether you love me or my power! I told you back at Qi Middle School not to cross my bottom line, not to tempt fate. I let it slide last time in the woods at Jin University! But this time, no one can save you! I will not tolerate anyone harming Yinuo, nor will I tolerate anyone becoming an obstacle between us!" Qin Fan roared.

After his shout, his murderous intent surged wildly.

He lunged forward.

Grabbing Xu Jiayi by the neck, he lifted her clean off her feet!

"Qin Fan, you’re so heartless! Too heartless! I admit it, I love the you that you are now, because no one likes a loser or a coward! I admit I never even gave you a second look before, but was I wrong? Ah! My father is an official. My birth makes me noble, and it dictates that I must be with an extraordinary man! It’s not just me; I believe any woman would feel the same. If you were still that piece of trash from before, do you really think Jiang Yinuo would like you? That she would be willing to date you? In your dreams! Haha! Qin Fan, you want to kill me? Go on, kill me! But can you get away with it? Don’t you forget about my father!"

Having reached this point, Xu Jiayi had become completely unhinged. She wasn’t a fool. She knew that since her plot was exposed, there was no longer any chance for her and Qin Fan. Since that was the case, she didn’t mind tearing away all pretenses.

"If you kill me, not only will you suffer the consequences, but Jiang Yinuo’s end will also be absolutely miserable! So, for that bitch’s sake, you wouldn’t dare kill me!"

"Are you threatening me?"

Qin Fan laughed, a scornful laugh.

"You can see it that way! I actually regret it now. I should have let that loser have his way with Jiang Yinuo in the private room’s bathroom, and I—I should have been right there recording it! Then I would have spread it everywhere. I’m sure you, Qin Fan, wouldn’t want such cheap goods after that, right?! Hahaha, hahahaha—!"

Perhaps she thought her father was a shield, one that meant Qin Fan wouldn’t dare harm her. Or perhaps her sanity had been completely annihilated by her madness. In any case, Xu Jiayi reverted to her original cold and aloof demeanor, sprinting headlong down the path of self-destruction.

"Are you done?" Qin Fan sneered, unfazed by her provocations.

"Hmph?" Xu Jiayi grunted.

"If you’re done, then let’s end this."

With those words, Qin Fan’s hand, which was gripping Xu Jiayi’s neck, suddenly twisted with immense force!

CRACK!

Xu Jiayi’s pupils dilated wildly. Even at the moment of her death, she couldn’t believe that Qin Fan would actually kill her, and so cleanly and decisively at that.

There was no time for regret.

Her consciousness dissolved the instant the crack sounded.

Her eyes remained wide open in a deathly stare as her head drooped, lifeless.

The bell had tolled for her the moment she decided to make a move against Jiang Yinuo. However, compared to Qin Fan’s original plan of having a mob violate and kill her, this was a far more merciful end.

THUD!

He flung Xu Jiayi’s body to the ground.

Qin Fan then pulled out a True Fire Talisman and tossed it onto her corpse.

He activated his Eyes of Golden Flame with a glance.

WHOOSH! Flames whooshed to life!

In less than three breaths, the True Fire was extinguished. In its place, Xu Jiayi had been turned into specks of dust that dissolved into the air.

Far from feeling any guilt about eliminating Xu Jiayi, Qin Fan felt he had acted too late. What consequences might have come from letting such a venomous person remain by Jiang Yinuo’s side? At this point, he wouldn’t engage in pointless speculation. But one thing was certain: as long as Xu Jiayi lived, she would have forever been a disaster waiting to happen for Jiang Yinuo.

Phew.

He let out a heavy sigh of relief.

Qin Fan took out his phone. He began dialing as he opened the door and walked out.

"Boss Qin, what are your orders?" On the other end of the line, Ye Jizu’s respectful and fawning voice came through.

"Is there a high-ranking official with the surname Xu?" Qin Fan asked directly, his voice grave.

"Yes! Boss Qin, what’s the matter?" Hearing the serious tone in Qin Fan’s voice, Ye Jizu’s own tone became grave.

"Investigate him. If his hands aren’t clean, take care of it," Qin Fan instructed.

"Yes, Boss Qin!" Without asking why, Ye Jizu responded solemnly.

Without another word, Qin Fan ended the call.

He walked out of the hotel and took a deep breath of the somewhat decadent air under the colorful neon lights. With a cold and sinister smile, he mused to himself, "Du Tiancong! I was planning on playing with you a little longer, but now... I think I’ll pass!"
