The Revenge of the Reborn Supreme Sovereign

Chapter 612: Chapter 588: Countdown!_3

"Dad, save me! Save me!"

At the same time, Bao Qiudong’s bedroom door suddenly burst open. Like a madman, Bao Qiudong scrambled out and knelt before Bo Xianmin, screaming in terror.

"This is a calamity! A calamity! What a calamity!"

Although she didn’t know exactly what had happened, Bo Xianmin’s cry that the Bo Family was doomed, combined with the sudden and drastic change in the father and son, was enough for the matriarch to understand that they were facing a nightmare. And this nightmare was brought on by her son, Bao Qiudong!

「Far outside Beijing.」

In a traditional courtyard home, an elderly man in a Zhongshan suit listened to Bao Qiudong’s panicked cries through the phone, shaking his head and sighing with deep regret. Without waiting for the now-silent Bo Xianmin to respond, he immediately hung up.

His stance was made clear by that single action.

He was powerless to help the Bo Family! After all, this wasn’t some ordinary Martial Artist, but a once-in-a-century, peerless monster! A monster who had single-handedly decimated Japan’s Ninja World and Yin Yang Master World! And yet, he still roamed the Human World with nonchalant ease. Given these unspeakable circumstances, what could he possibly do? Turn against such a monster for the sake of the Bo Family? Drive a being like that into the arms of their enemies? Impossible! That’s why, on this matter, they could only try to persuade Qin Fan. They wouldn’t dare to actually stop him. Now that things had come to this, it was all Bao Qiudong’s own doing, his own foolish death-wish. He had no one to blame but himself. The fortune of the Bo Family... could only be left to the will of Heaven!

SLAP!

At the Bo residence, Bo Xianmin’s fear was spiraling. Snapping back to his senses, he realized the call had been disconnected. In his position, he knew exactly what that meant. As fear morphed into utter despair, he lashed out, his trembling hand striking Bao Qiudong across the face.

"Dad, save me! He’s a lunatic! A complete lunatic! He’s going to kill us, he’s really going to kill us!" Numb to the stinging on his face, Bao Qiudong clung desperately to Bo Xianmin’s trouser leg, wailing incoherently as he cried.

"You wretched spawn! You’ve doomed the Bo Family! You’ve doomed us!"

He raised his trembling hand and slapped Bao Qiudong again.

The next moment, as if all his strength had been drained from him, Bo Xianmin collapsed onto the sofa, his gaze alternating between emptiness and despair.

"Dad, let’s go! Let’s get out of here and lay low! Please, can we? Please!" Heedless of the repeated slaps, Bao Qiudong shuffled forward on his knees, his voice a terrified, trembling plea.

"Qiudong, what happened?! What on earth happened?!" The matriarch, pale with panic, knelt to embrace her son, demanding frantically.

"Talk! Tell me everything from beginning to end! Don’t leave out a single detail!" Following his wife’s question, Bo Xianmin, his brows knitted tightly in thought, snarled hoarsely.

He couldn’t just sit here and wait to die, and neither could the Bo Family. But before he could think of a plan, he needed to understand the whole story. The enemy they faced wasn’t just any opponent, but a heaven-defying existence who seemed to operate beyond the reach of the law.

"Dad, I didn’t want to do it! I... I... I was misled! Yes, that’s it, I was misled!" Like a man possessed, Bao Qiudong’s lips quivered as he spoke, nodding and shaking his head erratically.

"Who misled you?"

After all, he was a titan in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. After the initial shock and despair, Bo Xianmin managed to suppress his overwhelming emotions. His face ashen and the corner of his mouth twitching, he asked quickly.

"Chen Tiansheng!!!" Bao Qiudong blurted out the name without a second thought.

"Chen Tiansheng?" Bo Xianmin’s eyes widened, unable to recall the name at first.

"Yes! He’s the one who saved me when I was kidnapped! He’s been abroad for the last few years, but we’ve kept in touch. As soon as he got back, he came to me and said he wanted to take down Qin Fan! He proposed we first kidnap Qin Fan’s girlfriend and Chang Yuanyi to drive Qin Fan insane. Once that happened, Qin Fan would surely kill Chang Yuanyi and even drag the entire Chang Family down with him!" Bao Qiudong continued to stammer, facing his father’s dazed expression.

"It was him!" Bo Xianmin was stunned for a moment before his anger returned. "It’s his business if he wants to deal with Qin Fan, so why did you get involved? Don’t you realize how untouchable that freak is? Huh?! Why?! Tell me why!"

Reaching the end of his rope, Bo Xianmin grabbed Bao Qiudong by the collar and roared.

"Dad, I was wrong! He provoked me! I-I-I was determined not to get involved, but... but for some reason, I must have lost my mind, and I agreed! But I only helped him find a few people to kidnap Jiang Yino! I didn’t do anything else, nothing! How could Qin Fan know it was me? How could he possibly know?! Dad, I was wrong, I was so wrong! You have to save me! Save me!"

His knuckles turned white as he gripped Bo Xianmin’s trousers, completely overwhelmed by fear. Qin Fan had only released a single message—that he intended to slaughter their entire family. But for Bao Qiudong, who thought he had a complete grasp on Qin Fan, that one message was enough to shatter his very soul.
