58: We are brothers.

Chu Jiang casually threw Jiang Tian several meters away, sending him crashing heavily onto the deck of the large ship.

Jiang Tian's eyes rolled back, and it took him a while to catch his breath.

He looked at Chu Jiang with fear.

Chu Jiang leaned down and looked at Jiang Tian, "Tomorrow, I want you to publicly expose the Cao Gang for massacring common people and framing Water Monsters!"

"Furthermore, the Cao Gang has secretly hoarded the Divine Arm Repeating Crossbows, which are forbidden by the Great Chu Dynasty, and has secretly colluded with demons, intending to rebel and overthrow the Great Chu Dynasty!"

Jiang Tian looked at Chu Jiang in disbelief, his face filled with terror, saying, "Impossible, you're asking me to die!"

Exposing the Cao Gang? He would be throwing his life away.

For so many years, anyone who opposed the Cao Gang had vanished without a trace.

The latter accusation was even more preposterous.

The Cao Gang did oppress common people and extort money, and they were a bit brutal, but colluding with demons and intending to overthrow the Great Chu Dynasty?

That was a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family.

It was simply impossible.

If he followed Chu Jiang's words, he definitely wouldn't live to see the next day.

Chu Jiang grinned, "It seems this official was a bit too light-handed just now."

As he spoke, he activated his Heart Fire, and Jiang Tian instantly let out a scream even more agonizing than before, startling the crows in the sky away with his chilling shriek.

Jiang Tian writhed on the ground in pain, immediately kowtowing repeatedly to Chu Jiang, "Sir, please forgive my ignorance... I... I made a mistake, I am willing to follow your commands... Whatever you tell me to say, I will say... Ah..."

"Only when the pain reaches your bones will you yield. this official does not like to repeat himself. Next time, if there is any resistance, you die!"

Chu Jiang said coldly, a chilling killing intent emanating from his entire being.

The remaining gang members, seeing this unfathomable method, some were already scared to the point of incontinence. Hall Master Jiang was an Innate Late Stage expert.

Yet, at this moment, he was like a pig or a dog.

His life or death was entirely in another's hands.

They usually tortured people too, but they had never seen anyone display such an agonizing expression.

"As for you all..."

Chu Jiang's gaze fell upon the remaining dozen or so gang members.

Everyone instantly felt as if they were being stared at by an unparalleled Vicious Beast, as if falling into an ice cellar.

"Sir, we are still useful to you. We can testify with Hall Master Jiang to expose the Cao Gang's evil deeds."

"To be honest with you, we were all forced by the Cao Gang. We were just following orders; if we didn't, we would die."

"Now that Sir is investigating this matter, we will fully cooperate. We must make this bandit gang, which has plagued this region, pay the price."

Several gang members, fearing that Chu Jiang would kill them, began to speak empty words and fabricate stories.

If they didn't lie to deceive this fiend now, they might lose their lives here.

"What a pity, I only need seven people to testify for me. Your Hall Master Jiang has already taken one spot, leaving six. You yourselves figure it out."

Chu Jiang smiled sinisterly, like a demon that had emerged from Hell.

"What!"

"We are brothers, how can we harm each other!"

"Nonsense, let's fight him."

However, none of them charged at Chu Jiang. Instead, while speaking, their eyes turned ruthless, and they seized the opportunity when their colleagues were not paying attention to strike ruthlessly.

In an instant, there were flashes of blades and swords. You were stabbed by him, and he was stabbed by another person.

Within moments, the deck was covered in blood, and even heads rolled.

"Niu San, you're despicable! Have you forgotten that I was the one who brought you into the Cao Gang, allowing you to live a life of luxury? You..."

"Sorry, I just want to live!"

"Besides, that's ancient history, why bring it up again? Just die."

...

This place turned into a human Shura field. Most of the people who died were those who were familiar with each other, caught off guard and killed by those they trusted.

If they attacked strangers, others would be on guard and might even fight back.

Attacking acquaintances was the way to increase the probability of survival.

Soon, only seven Cao Gang Disciples remained on the scene, including Jiang Tian.

"Sir, we have killed the wicked individuals in the hall who usually committed many evil deeds. They were utterly evil; even if Sir did not kill them today, they would surely face divine retribution."

The survivors, covered in blood, knelt uniformly before Chu Jiang.

"Very good, this official is very satisfied. Today, you have survived," Chu Jiang said with a smile.

In his heart, he had already sentenced these few people to death.

He said he wouldn't kill them today, but he didn't say he wouldn't kill them tomorrow, or the day after.

If it weren't for the fact that these few people still had some use, he would have left none of these Cao Gang beasts alive tonight.

"You all, open your minds and do not resist, otherwise, your bones will be scattered!"

Chu Jiang said coldly.

Naturally, he was going to plant Heart Fire in them. He could currently control a maximum of seven people simultaneously.

If his Soul had not broken through to the Grandmaster Realm, he would only be able to control one or two people.

This was also why Chu Jiang made them fight each other to the death; there weren't enough slots.

The few people instantly turned pale. It was clear that he was going to use some method on them, just like with Hall Master Jiang, but they dared not resist at all.

They all relaxed their minds.

It was better to live a wretched life than to die. As long as they were alive, there was still a chance.

After planting Heart Fire in everyone, Chu Jiang nodded in satisfaction.

With Heart Fire within them, their lives and deaths were in his control.

Chu Jiang directed a few Cao Gang Disciples to bring the two fishermen onto the large ship, preparing to set sail.

Fu Yunxuan, utilizing her movement technique, floated down from the ship's roof like a gliding swift, a cool, fragrant breeze sweeping past her. She landed lightly beside Chu Jiang.

"Sir, what kind of method is this? It's truly amazing!" Fu Yunxuan asked softly, a hint of curiosity in her beautiful eyes.

Chu Jiang smiled slightly, a mysterious glint in his eyes, and slowly said, "This is Heart Fire. It can control life and death. Do you want to learn?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Yunxuan's eyes lit up, and a look of delight appeared on her face. She said sweetly, "If Sir is willing to teach this official, this subordinate will naturally be extremely grateful."

This kind of method was truly unparalleled.

Chu Jiang's lips curved slightly upward, and he chuckled, "Then it depends on your performance."

Hearing this, Fu Yunxuan's heart rejoiced, and she quickly said, "Sir, rest assured, this subordinate will definitely work hard to perform and strive to satisfy you."

As she spoke, she even deliberately puffed out her magnificent bosom, as if demonstrating her determination to Chu Jiang.

This little girl is quite cute.

"Alright, this official's shoulders are a bit sore now. Give me a massage," Chu Jiang said languidly.

"This subordinate is coming."

Fu Yunxuan said with a smile, moving behind him. Her voice was clear and melodious, and even dressed in night clothes, it was difficult to conceal her graceful figure.

Instead, it accentuated her alluring curves.

Her fair, jade-like hands rested on Chu Jiang's shoulders, her fingers like a gentle breeze, softly massaging his rock-hard muscles.

"Hey, put some more strength into it. I don't feel anything. As a qualified subordinate, when massaging your superior, you must have enough strength, understand?" Chu Jiang felt a tickle, with no pleasure at all.

"Yes, Sir, I will increase the pressure now!"

Fu Yunxuan gradually increased her strength, her jade-like fingers pressing firmly on specific Acupoints, while her other fingers skillfully kneaded the surrounding muscles.

Each press was like precise acupuncture, striking the vital points, allowing Chu Jiang's muscle nerves to instantly relax greatly.

"Comfortable, just right, this is the strength!"

This instantly brought Chu Jiang's thoughts back to that distant world.

She leaned down slightly, patting other parts of Chu Jiang's body.

A faint, elusive fragrance wafted over, refreshing and intoxicating.

"So fragrant!" Chu Jiang took a deep breath, revealing a comfortable smile. This was the correct way to use subordinates; this was what life was all about.

Fu Yunxuan's eyes widened, and she showed a puzzled expression, saying, "Where is the fragrance? Why don't I smell it? Is it something to eat?"

"Cough, cough, I said the air smells fragrant. Continue, continue, don't stop."

Chu Jiang coughed lightly.

The Cao Gang members on the deck were laboriously clearing the remaining corpses. Seeing this scene, they gritted their back teeth. They were doing the dirty work here.

This fiend actually wanted his subordinate to give him a massage. How preposterous!

The key was that this subordinate was beautiful, and had a particularly good temperament.

Was there any justice left?

What was so good about this fiend?

Just then, Chu Jiang turned his head and suddenly asked:

"By the way, what's in these boxes!"
