47: Both of you must die

Saying that, Meng An kicked the figure’s head several times, making the figure cry out in pain.

Tian Shangfei quickly came over to stop him, “Hey, hey, hey! Lao Meng! Lao Meng! Don’t kill him! The Boss still needs him!

You can deal with him after he’s no longer useful. I’ve got some Rong Country torture instruments from a traveling merchant, they’re very effective! We can have some fun with them then.”

Meng An reacted and immediately cupped his fists towards Qin Jiang, “Boss, this dog-like thing made me busy all night, I couldn’t control myself. Otherwise, I would have been back last night!”

Speaking of this, he was a bit annoyed; it was all because of this dog-like thing that he couldn’t earn Face in front of the Boss!

He had promised to be back last night!

Qin Jiang smiled, looking at the figure on the ground, who was bruised and swollen, with half his jaw shattered and almost all his teeth knocked out.

He turned and waved at Zheng DeYu. Zheng DeYu walked over, gritting his teeth as he looked at the figure on the ground, his eyes bloodshot, wishing he could swallow the fellow whole!

“Did you see clearly? Is it Liu Pingan?” Qin Jiang asked.

Zheng DeYu stared intently at the figure, his teeth chattering uncontrollably, “Yes! I’ll never forget him, even as a ghost!”

“That’s good.”

Qin Jiang looked at the many villagers, “Everyone is here today, let’s consider this a witness, and go to the mine together.”

With that, he directly grabbed the rope binding Liu Pingan and dragged him towards the mine.

Soon after, the villagers of Da Liu Village and some villagers from nearby villages followed to the mine.

The villagers who had caused trouble with the Village Chief yesterday were sitting against the wall; they hadn’t closed their eyes all night. Whenever they tried to sleep, they would be woken up by the Red Tiger Gang’s Disciples.

The Village Chief sat hunched on the ground, his head thrust forward, and with his emaciated body, he looked like a vulture.

Qin Jiang didn’t waste words, directly drawing his Black Water and dragging Liu Pingan into the mine.

The Village Chief looked at Qin Jiang’s figure, his gaze falling on the bound figure in his hand, and immediately recognized that it was his son.

“Milord! Milord! What are you doing?! What are you doing?!”

He cried out in terror, struggling to get up and rushing towards Qin Jiang.

Bang!

A Red Tiger Gang member raised his leg and kicked him directly to the ground, “Damn it! Behave yourself!”

He was also one of the gang members who had entered the cave with Qin Jiang yesterday, and had long been awed by Qin Jiang’s terrifying Evil Qi.

Qin Jiang turned his head, tapped his head with the hilt of his Black Water saber, and walked in front of the Village Chief, “I forgot about you, you come along too.”

Dragging the two into the mine, a bone-chilling coldness surged out, much denser than yesterday, so much so that even the gang members guarding outside the mine uncontrollably got goosebumps.

Hiss~

Meng An rubbed his arms, looking worriedly into the mine, where Qin Jiang’s figure had already disappeared into the darkness.

“Boss won’t run into any trouble, will he?”

Tian Shangfei glared fiercely, “What nonsense are you talking about! Even if we two were watching out here, something could happen, but nothing will happen to the Boss in there!”

Meng An nodded in agreement, “That’s true. However, I can definitely endure more than you. Just watch, after the Boss becomes Sixth Master, I’ll definitely be the Head Chief!”

“Bullshit! You can be the Head Chief?! Then I’ll be the Deacon!”

Inside the cave, Qin Jiang dragged the two further in, and the deeper they went, the more fiercely the two struggled.

He didn’t use Evil Qi to suppress them; all in all, he quite enjoyed the sight of people struggling.

“Milord! Milord! It was all me! It was all me! Please don’t kill Pingan! Please don’t kill him! It was all me!”

The Village Chief was dragged on the ground, enduring the pain and clasping his hands together towards Qin Jiang.

Liu Pingan, on the other side, had also woken up long ago, his mouth opening and closing, uttering blurry words, “Kneel, kneel, kneel! It was my father who did it! It was my father who did it!”

Although not very clear, the meaning was understandable.

The Village Chief heard what Liu Pingan said, and his Face turned ashen, as if he had lost all vitality in an instant.

He nodded weakly, “Yes, it was this old man who did it, Milord, please spare Pingan’s life.”

Qin Jiang smiled, raised his hand, and directly threw the two below the female corpse.

“Ah! Ah—!”

Liu Pingan glanced at the female corpse in the wedding dress and immediately twisted his body in terror, but he couldn’t move an inch.

The Village Chief looked at Liu Pingan’s ugly appearance, then closed his eyes as if resigned to fate. His heart was calm, only regretting that he hadn’t smeared that fellow on the wall back then.

“Milord, everything was arranged by this old man. It was this old man who was blinded by greed to do such a thing. Whether you want to kill or dismember me, it’s up to you.”

Qin Jiang smiled, “Old Village Chief, you misunderstand. I don’t care if it was you or your son who did it. Today, both of you must die.”

As the saying goes, a father’s debt is paid by his son, and a son’s debt by his father; it is reasonable and fair.

Words laced with a smile echoed in the Village Chief’s ears. He suddenly opened his eyes, “Milord, you—”

Before he could finish his sentence, a chill passed through his throat, then rapidly withdrew, splattering blood.

Liu Pingan, seeing this, didn’t even have time to react before he also felt a chill in his throat, and then his vision began to be covered by a black mist.

Rip~

Qin Jiang tore off half of Liu Pingan’s cloth garment and casually wiped the blood from the Black Water blade.

“Take a deep breath, dizziness is normal, it will pass soon.”

After a while, the two stopped moving, and a layer of black mist gradually diffused from their bodies.

In just a few breaths, the black mist was evaporated by the light beam cast from above the mine.

Looking at the two corpses, they were already shriveled beyond recognition.

Shaking his head, he walked out of the mine, and Meng An and Tian Shangfei immediately surrounded him.

“Boss! Are you alright?!”

“Boss! Is everything okay?”

Qin Jiang was slightly startled, looking at the two in front of him; their worried expressions were not feigned.

“What could happen to me? Go collect the bodies inside. Burn the Village Chief and his son, and properly bury Zheng DeYu’s wife.”

“Aye! Understood!”

“You wait! Don’t steal my job!”

Moments later, the bodies were cremated, giving off a large amount of thick smoke.

Some of the surrounding villagers cheered, and some even set off firecrackers.

These people were mostly from outside clans and had long suffered under the oppression of the Village Chief’s family.

The bodies burned until almost noon. Meng An came over with a meat pie and a water skin, “Boss, have some. I brought this from Old Zhang’s shop in the city, it’s delicious!”

Qin Jiang took the meat pie and water skin. After cultivating Red Tiger Fist to the second level, his body’s demand for energy greatly increased, leading to a significant increase in his appetite.

“Boss, when are we going back?” Meng An asked.

Qin Jiang glanced at him and smiled, “What, missing your Yun’er?”

“No, no, no! Our Lao Meng doesn’t have such thoughts! Not like Lao Tian!” Meng An quickly waved his hand in denial.

“Let’s stay two more days. We’ll go back after we’re sure nothing else will happen,” Qin Jiang said.

“Aye, alright!”

Two days later, Qin Jiang was practicing Red Tiger Fist forms in the courtyard, and a faint red tiger shadow gradually solidified behind him.

Looking at the panel,

【Current Martial arts】

Longevity Five Qi Skill (Second Level) (220/400)

Iron Arm Fist (Perfection)

Earth Dragon Body (Second Level) (170/300)

Red Tiger Fist (Second Level) (50/900)

【Potential Points: 13.8】

In just three to five days, his Red Tiger Fist experience had increased by 40 points.

At this rate, even if he Cultivated by himself, it would only take three or four months to achieve the third level of Red Tiger Fist.

It proved that as long as his nutrition kept up, his Martial arts talent was actually not bad, and could even be considered that of a Genius.

After a moment of thought, he made up his mind: after returning today and resolving the issue of Red Tiger Fist’s excessive Evil Qi, he would add points to the third level.

Anyway, he had already displayed part of his strength. After returning, he wouldn’t necessarily be promoted directly to Hall Master, but at least the position of Deacon was guaranteed.

After that, he could begin to sweep for Potential Points.

For the Red Tiger Gang, collecting ancient artifacts was not a difficult task at all; no one would obstruct the Red Tiger Gang for this.

Thump, thump, thump!

“Boss! Something happened! Someone dug up Zheng DeYu’s wife’s grave!”

Meng An rushed into the courtyard.

Qin Jiang’s brows furrowed at the news, and a surge of anger he couldn’t suppress rose in his heart.

Grabbing the Black Water nearby, “Let’s go! I’ll see which blind dog-like thing it is!”
