44: Chapter 44 A Moment of Passion, Worth a Thousand Pieces of Gold

Jiangnan, Qingzhou.

Qingzhou is a famous martial arts hometown in Jiangnan Province, where almost every household practices martial arts.

And the most powerful force in Qingzhou is the Hu Family.

The Hu Family possesses a Dao Legacy spanning hundreds of years and has over three hundred Disciples, making it a typical martial arts family.

The head of the Hu Family, Hu Shinan, is even a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

The entire Qingzhou can be said to be the Hu Family's territory.

However, all of this will become history today.

At this moment, the vast Hu Family mansion is filled with corpses everywhere; the blood has almost dyed the entire courtyard red, a shocking sight.

Sitting impressively on the grand armchair in the main hall of the Hu Family is a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man has a cold, stern face, a hooked nose, and is draped in a grey robe, exuding an unparalleled aura of dominance.

Kneeling before the middle-aged man is an elderly man with grey whiskers.

The old man is prostrate on the ground, his entire face pressed against the floor, with blood constantly flowing from his face.

And his head, covered in grey and white hair, is being wantonly trampled by the middle-aged man's foot.

If anyone who knew the old man were to see this scene, they would certainly be shocked.

This old man is none other than the Hu Family head, Hu Shinan.

Unexpectedly, the Martial Arts Grandmaster who dominated Qingzhou, Hu Shinan, is currently kneeling before someone else, allowing the other person to trample on his head.

"Hu Shinan, I, this King, ask you: do you submit or not?"

A ruthless voice rang out from the middle-aged man's mouth.

Hu Shinan's voice was hoarse and trembling: "This lowly one submits... I dare not provoke the majesty of the King of Jiangnan again... I beg the King of Jiangnan to spare this lowly one's life..."

This incredibly domineering middle-aged man before him is none other than King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong.

"Hahaha!"

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong laughed wildly upon hearing this, then his voice suddenly turned chilling: "Since you submit, then go die!"

After speaking, he exerted sudden force with his foot, instantly crushing Hu Shinan's head like a watermelon being stepped on, splattering red and white blood everywhere.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong kicked Hu Shinan's corpse away, revealing a smug smile.

From this moment on, Qingzhou also belongs to him.

"Clomp, clomp, clomp!"

Rapid footsteps came from outside the main hall at this moment.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong looked up at the person approaching. Just as he was about to speak, his expression suddenly changed, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Gu Wang, what happened to your hand? Didn't I tell you to go to Jinling to investigate the killing of Zhou Qifeng? Who injured you?"

The person who entered was none other than Gu Wang.

After leaving Jinling, Gu Wang had rushed to Qingzhou at full speed.

"Big Brother, you must avenge me!"

Gu Wang fell to his knees with a thud, tears welling up in his eyes, and recounted the events through gritted teeth.

"You're saying that the Jiang Family's useless fourth son has been released from prison, and he is a Martial Arts Grandmaster?"

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong frowned upon hearing this.

Before Jiang Chen went to prison, he was just in his early twenties, knew nothing about martial arts, and was purely a playboy.

Even if he started to Cultivate martial arts in prison, he would have only been Cultivating for five years at most; in any case, it is impossible for him to be a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Even that exalted lord, who possessed heaven-defying talent, only crossed into the Grandmaster realm in his thirties.

Could it be that Jiang Chen's talent is even greater than that lord's?

He absolutely does not believe it!

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong reached out and grabbed Gu Wang's collar, asking in a deep voice: "Since Jiang Chen knew you were my brother, why didn't he kill you and instead let you come back?"

"He told me to come back and deliver a message to Big Brother, saying that he wants to use Big Brother's head to pay tribute to his parents' spirits in heaven."

Speaking of this, a hateful light shot from Gu Wang's eyes.

"Hahaha!"

Unexpectedly, King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong laughed instead of getting angry, shaking the entire Hu Family hall.

A moment later, he abruptly stopped laughing, his eyes shooting out a chilling light, and he said coldly: "What big words! Having only Cultivated martial arts for five years, he dares to claim he will take my, King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong's, head. Simply overestimating his own capabilities."

After speaking, he rose from the grand armchair and shouted at Gu Wang: "Let's go, we are going to Jinling. I want to see that Jiang Chen..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a strange look appeared in King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong's eyes.

He saw that Gu Wang's complexion was exceptionally ugly, his whole body was trembling, and his eyes were full of terror as he said: "Big Brother... I..."

"Ah!"

The next moment, Gu Wang let out a miserable scream.

He saw a Golden Flame mark appear in Gu Wang's pupils, and then his entire body suddenly erupted with Golden Flame, burning his body inch by inch from the inside out.

No matter how much Gu Wang rolled on the ground and wailed, he could not extinguish the Golden Flame.

Finally, amidst desperate screams, Gu Wang was burned into nothingness by the Golden Flame, and only then did the flame extinguish.

In the entire Hu Family hall, not even a speck of ash was left behind.

It was as if Gu Wang had never existed.

A deathly silence.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong seemed to have been acupoint-struck; he stared at the ground with wide eyes, not making a sound for a long time.

"Roar!"

The next moment, King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong erupted with a deafening roar that shook the Hu Family hall violently: "Jiang Chen, you beast! You actually dared to kill my brother; I will have you torn apart by horses and smashed into ten thousand pieces!"

The powerful sound wave energy constantly impacted the Hu Family hall.

With a series of "clatter" sounds, countless tiles fell down, and the entire Hu Family hall collapsed with a bang, stirring up billowing smoke and dust.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong strode out from the smoke and dust, heading towards Jinling.

Full of Killing Intent.

...

Jiang Chen was in Shen Bier's office.

At this moment, a cluster of Golden Flame was emerging from his fingertips, as if he were performing magic.

Shen Bier knew that Jiang Chen was not an ordinary person, so she was not surprised.

After the Golden Flame gradually disappeared, a cold sneer appeared at the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth.

He knew that King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong had already received the gift.

Next, he just had to wait for King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong to come to his door.

Although King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong is a Martial Arts Grandmaster and holds the nickname King of Jiangnan, dominating a region.

But he is a legendary Cultivator.

Even though he is currently only at the third level of the Qi Refining Realm, it is more than enough to deal with King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong.

It was already past one in the morning.

Shen Bier drove personally to take Jiang Chen home.

Jiang Chen had just pushed open the door when he smelled a strong scent of alcohol; it looked like someone had been drinking.

Looking at the shoes placed at the entryway, there were Ling Shuang's small leather shoes and Xiao Yuwei's red high heels.

The two of them hadn't gone back.

Jiang Chen didn't think much of it; he went to the bathroom to wash up, then returned to his room.

He didn't turn on the lights; he walked straight to the bed, lifted the quilt, and lay down.

After Cultivating the Tai Xuan Sutra, Jiang Chen could fall asleep the moment his head hit the pillow, without any buffer at all.

In a hazy state.

He seemed to discover that someone was lying next to him.

A woman wearing only underwear.

The woman turned over, took the opportunity to hug Jiang Chen, buried her head directly into his chest, and draped her snow-white, rounded long legs over him, just like an accessory.

Jiang Chen thought it was a spring dream and didn't think much of it, simply pulling her into his embrace.

Soon he realized that this dream was so real!

Their skin was almost touching; he could not only feel the other person's warm breath but even feel the pressure of her full breasts.

"Mm~"

The woman in his arms seemed to feel something, let out a moan, and wiggled her hips.

She even stretched out her slender hands, hugged Jiang Chen's neck tightly, and pressed her moist lips against his cheek.

This spring dream is perhaps too real, isn't it?

Should he wake up and go back to sleep?

Forget it.

After so many years, it's rare to have a spring dream.

A moment of spring night is worth a thousand gold.
