13: Chapter 13 Yun Qing
Yun Qing's shout left everyone stunned.
Whether it was Shen Mo or the onlookers outside the restaurant.
Everyone was wondering the same thing: Who was he shouting for?
"Could it be that Young Master Yun Xin has returned!"
"That's an Immortal!"
"Where? Why don't I see him?"
"Nonsense, is an Immortal someone you can just see whenever you want?"
While everyone was still guessing if Yun Xin had returned, Shen Mo first said to Yun Ming, "My friend, you must be the so-called Immortal."
Only then did everyone look at Yun Ming, thinking, 'That's right, everyone else just fled, yet he alone was sitting there calmly drinking and eating; he definitely isn't an ordinary person.'
Without even turning his head, Yun Ming waved his hand and said calmly, "It's irrelevant. I don't know him. Just kill him."
Yun Qing grew anxious first: "Yun Ming! Get over here and protect me right now! You idiot!"
"Yun Ming?" Shen Mo looked at Yun Ming, thinking it wasn't the Yun Xin he had heard about all along. That made things easier, so he questioned, "Yun Ming, do you intend to protect him?"
Yun Ming said helplessly, "Are you deaf, or do you just not understand me? Irrelevant, irrelevant."
This truly left Shen Mo puzzled, but although Yun Ming wasn't famous, he was still a member of the Yun Family, so he had to be on guard.
"In that case, let me see just how powerful an Immortal's strength is." With that, Shen Mo temporarily abandoned Yun Qing and charged at Yun Ming with his sword.
Yun Ming shook his head at Shen Mo, "Is there something wrong with your head? I said, if you want to kill him, then kill him. Who's stopping you?"
Shen Mo remained unmoved. "You are both from the Yun Family and have known each other since childhood. Who would believe you don't care about his life! Take this move, Sword Slashes the Starry River!"
Boom!!!
Shen Mo turned into a shooting star, flying out of the restaurant's entrance and knocking over Yun Qing, who was trying to escape.
Yun Ming walked out of the restaurant with a calm demeanor. Looking at Shen Mo lying on the ground spitting blood, he sighed, "Kid, what should I even say to you."
Shen Mo spat a mouthful of bloody saliva toward Yun Ming. "Bah! Helping a villain! Not a single person in your Yun Family is good. You claimed you'd let me kill Yun Qing, yet you still heavily injured me. For a despicable person to become an Immortal—the heavens are truly blind!"
"Holy crap, are you even being reasonable? You're the one who rushed over to slash me on your own. Was I supposed to just stand there and let you? You're crazy."
After speaking, Yun Ming ignored him, walked past him, and picked up Yun Qing, who was playing dead on the ground.
"Stop faking it. I know you're fine. Take me to the Yun Family; it's been too long since I've been back."
Yun Qing squinted his eyes. Seeing Shen Mo on the ground, he immediately became arrogant again. "Well done, Yun Ming. I'll reward you with a chicken leg later." He tried to break free from Yun Ming's grip but found that Yun Ming was like a statue; no matter how much force he used, Yun Ming didn't budge.
"Let go of me, Yun Ming! This young master doesn't need your protection anymore."
Yun Ming continued to clutch his collar and slowly lifted him up. Yun Qing felt his feet leave the ground and couldn't help but panic. "Yun Ming, what are you doing! Put me down!"
"Put you down? Sure." After saying that, Yun Ming suddenly exerted force and slammed Yun Qing directly onto the ground.
Crack, crack, crack!
A series of bone-shattering sounds rang out, accompanied by Yun Qing's agonized screams.
The onlookers and Shen Mo were all stunned, a chill rising from the bottom of their hearts.
Yun Ming picked Yun Qing up again. "Can we talk properly now?"
Yun Qing was now like a tattered sack, his whole body limp, covered in filth, bruised and swollen, with blood leaking from his mouth and facial orifices. "Yun... Yun Ming! I will... kill you... kill you."
Even like this, Yun Qing was still threatening Yun Ming.
"Sigh," Yun Ming sighed. "In that case, just die."
Yun Qing's eyes widened instantly. He suddenly felt the world spinning and even saw Yun Ming holding a headless corpse. By the time he realized it was his own, it was too late.
Yun Ming's movements were so fast that no one could see them clearly, including Shen Mo. Only then did Shen Mo realize how vast the gap was between him and Yun Ming.
No one was afraid of Yun Qing's death; instead, it triggered a wave of earth-shattering cheers.
Everyone was celebrating, cheering, and happy because of Yun Qing's death.
Tossing the corpse aside, Yun Ming shook his hand in disgust. Watching the people weeping with joy, he lamented, "Just how many evil deeds did you do, kid?"
Shen Mo forced himself to stand up, approached Yun Ming, and cupped his fists in apology. "Great Hero Yun, I misjudged you. I've wronged you."
Yun Ming tilted his head. "Lend me your sword for a moment."
Shen Mo looked at his longsword stuck nearby. "Uh, sure. Let me pull it out for you."
Just as he was about to pull it out, the longsword trembled twice and flew up from the ground into Yun Ming's hand.
Yun Ming gave it a couple of test swings; it was quite handy.
Seeing the sword fly into Yun Ming's hand on its own, Shen Mo was initially surprised, but thinking of Yun Ming's status as an Immortal, he felt there was nothing to be surprised about.
"Great Hero Yun, what do you plan to do next?"
"What else can I do? Go back to the Yun Family."
"But you just killed a young master of the Yun Family. They won't let you off."
"So what if he's a young master of the Yun Family? So am I."
Shen Mo was momentarily speechless, not knowing what to say.
"This Yun Qing bullied me since I was a child and used my name to act like a tyrant when he grew up. Killing him actually makes me feel like my mind is clear."
Yun Ming wasn't just talking nonsense. When he had come down the mountain, the closer he got to the Yun Family, the more he felt a blockage of Qi in his chest. It was very uncomfortable, and even his Spiritual Qi circulation was having issues. It wasn't until he killed Yun Qing just now that he felt a sense of relief.
Only then did he realize that the Yun Family had to be dealt with as soon as possible. Otherwise, his thoughts wouldn't be smooth, and it would eventually become a Heart Demon during his Breakthrough.
Thus, Yun Ming set off for the Yun Family, and Shen Mo insisted on following him, claiming he would lead the way.
The news of Yun Ming killing Yun Qing spread further and further. Many people wept with joy upon hearing it. Everyone in Wu'an County hated Yun Qing and the Yun Family to the bone. Hearing that Yun Ming was going to the Yun Family, they spontaneously followed him to bolster his momentum.
By the time Yun Ming reached the Yun Family, a massive crowd was following behind him.
Meanwhile, the Yun Family still had no idea what had happened.
In front of the Yun Family's main gate, two servants acting as guards became flustered seeing the aggressive crowd.
"What are you doing! Is this a rebellion? This is the Yun Family!" one of the servants said, emboldened.
Yun Ming lamented, "How is it that when I come home, my own family's servants are trying to stop me?"
One of the servants seemed to recognize him. "You... you're Yun Ming?"
"You recognize me?"
"I do. You're that bitch Xiao Wei's son. How could you enter through the main gate? The dog hole is still reserved for you."
Yun Ming was stunned, Shen Mo was stunned, and everyone else was stunned.
If one were to say the Yun Family deserved to be destroyed, it was because not a single person in the entire family looked up to Yun Ming and his mother. None of Yun Ming's memories of the Yun Family contained even a shred of joy.
"Heart Demons must be completely eradicated as early as possible."
A swing of the sword, and a head went flying.
Yun Ming had finally returned to this place that caused him so much pain.
