80: Chapter 80 Private Trading Meeting? Gathering, Confiscating Property and Exterminating Clans!
Pfft—!
The spraying blood dyed half of Young Master Jin Mingren's face red. The blood-red color reflected in his eyes caused his brain to instantly go blank!
Who am I, where am I, what the hell is happening here!
Young Master Jin Mingren stood there, stunned.
It wasn't until the blood ray blade was pressed against his neck, the cold blade touching his skin, that a chill washed over him, jolting him awake!
The other collateral descendants of the Jin family surrounding them, who had just been arguing about who was stronger, were now all lying on the ground.
The blood pooled together, painting an irregular yet extremely gruesome and bizarre pattern!
"Tongqiao Middle Stage?"
"Heh—, with just this much strength, who gave you the courage to scheme against me?"
Lu Qingyun did not attack immediately.
Because he wasn't someone who loved killing; the experience gained from killing a Tongqiao Middle Stage cultivator wasn't even as much as what he gained from circulating his cultivation technique once.
His main goal was resources! Wealth! Everything that could allow him to improve his strength!
"Don't... don't do it!"
Young Master Jin Mingren's body was trembling slightly, his eyes filled with deep fear!
He locked eyes with Lu Qingyun for a split second before immediately lowering his head!
He didn't even have the courage to meet his gaze at all!
He could only look at Gang Leader Qian Wanjun, who was lying on a wheelchair with a pale face, his mind racing as he sought a way to break the deadlock!
But before he could think of one, he heard Lu Qingyun's calm voice.
"What's the use of looking at him? You don't actually expect to rely on a Xiantian Middle Stage cripple you beat up yourselves to save you from my hands, do you?"
Clang—!
As soon as the words fell, Gang Leader Qian Wanjun slumped down from the wheelchair, his large, fat body piling up like a massive lump of lard.
Just a moment ago, although he was extremely terrified.
After Lu Qingyun had slain the Xiantian Late Stage expert beside Young Master Jin Mingren.
He had already prepared to abandon the light for the darkness, transforming from a reluctant undercover agent to a willing one.
After all, with something like this happening, no matter what, the Jin family's retaliation wouldn't make things easy for him.
Rather than certain death, it was better to just go with the flow and continue working under Lu Qingyun.
But just now, Lu Qingyun had laid everything out in the open, effectively cutting off his retreat!
From the very beginning, Lu Qingyun had known his intentions!
"Supervisor... Supervisor Lu, give me a chance."
"I really want to be a good person! The Jin family forced me before; look at these wounds on my body... they were all caused by these Jin family members! I only have hatred for them in my heart! Now that I've witnessed Supervisor Lu's brilliance, I know that someone like you is who I should be following!"
Gang Leader Qian Wanjun quickly crawled to Lu Qingyun's feet, his expression fawning.
But Lu Qingyun didn't even glance at him, continuing to speak to Young Master Jin Mingren: "However, I still have to thank you. Otherwise, I might have really forgotten about this free Xiantian expert I picked up."
Swish—!!
The blood ray blade sliced through the air, emitting a crisp sound of piercing wind.
Clang—
Gang Leader Qian Wanjun's head fell off, rolling right to Young Master Jin Mingren's feet.
A pair of eyes, widened to their limit before death, stared fixedly at Young Master Jin Mingren, seemingly screaming with his unwillingness and resentment!
"Huff—!" "Huff—!!"
Young Master Jin Mingren's breathing was exceptionally heavy.
But precisely because of that, his mind was exceptionally clear at this moment!
Under the pressure of death, he immediately guessed Lu Qingyun's intentions!
"It's not just my Jin family that wants to make a move on you; several of our major families have joined forces, wanting to work together to bite a piece of meat off of you!"
"Don't kill me! I can tell you who the other families are, and I can even act as your inside man, providing you with real-time intelligence!"
The blade became extremely sharp at that moment!
Young Master Jin Mingren felt warm liquid flowing from his skin; it was clearly cutting into his flesh!
This made him shout even louder and faster: "This is something you need too! As long as you report this intelligence to Ning Xuanzhou, you will definitely receive a reward!"
The blade at his neck paused for a moment.
But before he could show any joy, it was raised high, completely prepared to slice his head off upon the next strike!
Just at this critical moment, a flash of inspiration hit Young Master Jin Mingren, and he grasped the key point!
"Tomorrow!"
"They are holding a private trading fair tomorrow! They will be bringing quite a lot of good things!"
"I know where they are holding it, I can take you there!!"
Young Master Jin Mingren closed his eyes tightly, veins bulging on his face, as if his whole body was straining to resist the descending blade.
Drip— Drip—
He didn't know which corpse the blood was dripping from.
Young Master Jin Mingren opened his eyes, touched his head and body with his hands, and after confirming they hadn't been separated, he let out a long sigh of relief.
He had never, as he did in this moment, sighed at how beautiful life was.
However, he hadn't felt that way for long before Lu Qingyun's voice sounded again.
"Private trading fair? Tell me more in detail."
In an instant, Young Master Jin Mingren's heart was in his throat again.
He didn't dare to delay, and explained in detail: "It's to facilitate mutual exchange and make the alliance more stable. So, it was decided to hold a private trading fair, which is equivalent to swapping unique resources; it's also a simple tea party."
"Undoubtedly, the things they bring won't be of low value. However, one thing to note is... the people coming are all the outstanding members of the younger generation of each major family. They are highly likely to inherit their respective families in the future, so the protection they bring shouldn't be too weak."
As he said this, he glanced at the decapitated Uncle Cheng.
He suddenly felt that the warning at the end was a bit redundant.
With two strikes, Uncle Cheng, a Xiantian Late Stage expert, had been slain.
With this kind of strength, his cultivation level must have definitely reached the Xiantian Late Stage, and in terms of combat power, he was a cut above experts of the same realm!
"Fine, you will accompany me tomorrow."
"At that time, I will be your protector. No problem, right?"
Although he was extremely unwilling, how could Young Master Jin Mingren dare to say no?
He could only nod silently.
And just as he was thinking about what method to use to escape tomorrow, or how to protect his own little life.
He saw Lu Qingyun walk straight up to him, his gaze carrying immense pressure, and said very seriously: "Jianghu rules: raid the home and exterminate the clan."
"I've finished the 'exterminate the clan' part with you, so the things that should be obtained from 'raiding the home'... should also be given to me. Or, should I complete these two steps myself?"
Young Master Jin Mingren opened his mouth.
In the end, feeling exceptionally stifled, he took Lu Qingyun to the storage room.
However, because this Outer City was not the true family headquarters.
The quality of the items stored here was not very good.
There were mostly cuiqiao pills and blood nourishing pills; there wasn't a single xiantian pill.
However, he did manage to loot two from that sole Xiantian Late Stage expert, and even found a beast core that had been used quite a bit!
Twenty-five thousand experience points obtained!
However, the actual harvest was clearly more than just this.
Lu Qingyun's actions were equivalent to uprooting the Jin family's forces in the Outer City!
Later, after the people from the Burning Bone Beast Arena took over their assets, the subsequent profits would all belong to him!
