146: Chu Qing, will definitely die

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Nangong, Wang Yinyang, and others split into two teams, heading straight for Heishi County and Xiaozhu County.

Not long after, Chu Qing also arrived.

He rode the moonlight, heading straight for Liufeng County.

In the darkness:

Some people carefully observed, tracked, and transmitted information.

Flap!

Flap!

White pigeons descended from the sky, landing in the homes of the wealthy families in Shiji County.

Soon:

These wealthy families began to act.

Experts from each wealthy Family gathered and met with the lurking rebel experts:

"These Inner Courtyard students finally took the bait."

"Leaving the protection of the Martial Arts Academy, they are dead this time."

"According to the plan, we will go to Heishi County to encircle and annihilate them; you go to Xiaozhu County!"

"Liufeng County... you two families go together!"

These wealthy families had long been prepared.

Chu Qing and his group wanted to eliminate the rebel experts to reduce future pressure.

And they also wanted to join forces with the rebels to take the opportunity to eliminate Chu Qing and the others.

Because:

Chu Qing and his group were too powerful.

Ever since Chu Qing joined the Martial Arts Academy, he had become increasingly powerful.

Originally:

According to the rules, within Shiji County, their wealthy families were paramount.

Outside the city belonged to Fortress Lord Wu.

But, ever since Chu Qing appeared, several Wu Forts were annihilated first.

Then the Qin Family was annihilated.

Whether it was the Wu Forts or the wealthy families, under Chu Qing's suppression, they could only cower and act carefully.

What angered the wealthy families even more was:

Chu Qing actually wanted to stay in Shiji County for three years.

During these three years, they couldn't make any major moves, or even act arrogantly.

Otherwise:

Heaven knows if Chu Qing would annihilate their entire families.

"Under strong oppression, there will inevitably be resistance."

"Chu Qing, a tyrant!"

"He must die!"

"His running dogs must also die."

These wealthy families could not tolerate it, so they wanted to join forces with the rebels to eliminate Chu Qing and his group.

However:

In a wealthy Family surnamed Ma, a woman knelt before the Head of the Ma Family, crying and saying, "Father, we cannot go against Chu Qing."

The Head of the Ma Family roared in anger, "It's not us going against him, but he is oppressing us too harshly!"

"We must resist!"

The woman said faintly, "Father, is the oppression Chu Qing gives us more severe than the oppression we give ordinary people?"

The Head of the Ma Family trembled with rage, "Wretch, what are you saying?"

"Do those Mud Leg count as people?"

"We are wealthy families; Chu Qing is a Mud Leg."

"What right does he have to ride on our heads?"

The woman choked out, "Father, three years, only three years and Chu Qing will definitely leave Shiji County."

"When he leaves, won't this Shiji County still be ours to command?"

"What's more, the Qin Family is gone, and our power has grown a little more."

"Three years of forbearance in exchange for greater power in the future is nothing."

Slap!

The Head of the Ma Family slapped the woman, scolding, "Foolish!"

"We wealthy families have come this far by relying on ourselves."

"Not on the charity of a Mud Leg!"

The woman also became anxious, she tightly gripped the Head of the Ma Family's leg and said, "Father, Chu Qing has cultivated 365 Golden Tendons!"

"His strength is too great."

"If he doesn't die, great disaster will surely befall us!"

The Head of the Ma Family laughed heartily, "He is heading towards Liufeng County."

"There are two Blood Refinement experts there who have undergone ten Blood Refinements!"

"Our Family and the Zhang Family will also send one Blood Refinement expert!"

"Plus the two supported by the rebels."

"A total of six Blood Refinement experts, surpassing him by one Realm."

"No matter how powerful his Golden Tendons are, can he really cross a minor Realm and withstand six experts?"

"Chu Qing is dead tonight."

The Head of the Ma Family waved his hand, and several experts cupped their fists, and under the cover of night, they whistled away, heading straight for Liufeng County.

The Head of the Ma Family then, according to the plan, arranged for his servant Martial Artists to follow behind as support.

The woman was sad.

She quietly withdrew, then packed her valuables and quietly left the Family, hiding in a private courtyard not far away.

She really didn't have a good feeling about this operation.

Because:

Some people knew the Golden Tendons were powerful; but, they didn't know exactly how powerful they were.

"If he could be killed by relying on Realm suppression."

"Then... the Qin Family wouldn't have been annihilated!"

Unfortunately:

All the wealthy families and rebels believed that the Qin Family was annihilated because Chu Qing launched a sneak attack.

Then, relying on superior numbers, they encircled and annihilated the Qin Family's only Blood Refinement expert.

And this time:

They—assassinated Chu Qing!

...Late at night:

Heishi County:

A lean man was sleeping.

Suddenly, a white pigeon fluttered in, startling him awake from his sleep.

The man checked the white pigeon and sneered:

"Four young brats, dare to assassinate me?"

"Arrogant!"

"I am an expert who has undergone twelve Blood Refinements!"

One Blood Refinement is equivalent to refining ten bones.

He had undergone twelve Blood Refinements, which was equivalent to refining an additional one hundred and twenty bones and an additional six hundred major tendons.

Coupled with his original hundred-plus Bronze Bones and two hundred-plus Bronze Tendons, his strength was much greater than Qin Ming, the Qin Family's Blood Refinement expert back then.

"You nine people only managed to kill him back then."

"Now, four people are coming over, isn't this clearly sending yourselves to your deaths?"

"What's more, I also have two helpers!"

...Xiaozhu County:

A burly man with bulging muscles was practicing martial arts.

Flap!

A white pigeon flew in.

After checking, the big man immediately called his servants:

"Prepare iron nets and bows and arrows, enemies will be attacking soon!"

"Yes!"

A group of servants, dressed in leather armor, holding iron nets, shields, bows and arrows, and long spears, ambushed all around, waiting to annihilate the enemy...Liufeng County:

There were two courtyards, less than a thousand meters apart, and white pigeons landed in both simultaneously.

In one of the courtyards:

A middle-aged man was drinking with a beauty in his arms.

After seeing the white pigeon, he sneered, "A young brat, does he really think that with Perfected Gold Tendons, he can act recklessly?"

"I have undergone fifty Blood Refinements, my quality has reached the Bronze Blood Realm, with over two hundred Silver Tendons and over a hundred Silver Bones, will I be afraid of a young brat like you?"

"If you come first, I'll crush you!"

As he spoke, he used force with his five fingers, crushing the white pigeon.

Blood splattered, the beauties screamed in terror, which made the man laugh heartily.

A thousand meters away, in another courtyard, there was another middle-aged man—Niu Jieshi.

Niu Jieshi was practicing weapon techniques, wielding a hundred-jin Guandao.

The blade light flashed, like a wheel.

A servant next to him continuously poured water.

As a result:

The blade light swept through, water splashed, and not a single drop of water landed on him.

Flap!

A white pigeon flew in.

A servant checked it and delivered the intelligence, saying, "Master, Chu Qing is attacking!"

Thud!

A muffled sound.

The long blade was stabbed into the ground.

Niu Jieshi swallowed a Secret medicine to restore his spirit and energy, then called his servants, "Go, bring that set of heavy armor!"

The servants were stunned for a moment and said, "Master, do you need to wear heavy armor to deal with a mere Tendon Refinement student?"

Niu Jieshi said sternly, "Even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit!"

"Chu Qing has killed Blood Refinement Realm experts before, and he also has Perfected Gold Tendons."

"I heard that those with Perfected Gold Tendons are very formidable."

"Although I am one Realm higher than him, I still need to be careful."

The servants didn't take it seriously, but they still honestly carried over the heavy armor and put it on the big man.

Dressed neatly.

Niu Jieshi then had his servants bring various Secret medicines.

There were those for restoring spirit and energy, for stopping bleeding, and for specifically repairing internal injuries.

Numerous Secret medicines were placed inside his helmet.

Some were even held in his mouth.

He began to adjust his state and raise his Aura.

Under the night:

He was like a steel behemoth; just sitting there motionless gave people a tremendous sense of oppression.

The servants couldn't bear it and quietly retreated.

"Over the years, Master has killed countless tendons and bones Martial Artists."

"He has even killed a hundred or eighty Blood Refinement Martial Artists of the same Realm."

"Killing Chu Qing this time will be as easy as turning over his hand!"

A servant smiled, "If the General had let Master come earlier, that Chu Qing would have died long ago."

"Why wait until now?"

A servant's eyes darted around as he said, "Everyone, how about we make a bet on how many seconds that Chu Qing can last in Master's hands?"

"I bet he can last at most ten seconds!"

A servant sneered, "Last month, Master killed two Martial Instructors from Qinghe Martial Arts Academy with only two strikes; so, I bet he can only last one second!"

All the servants were relaxed.

They had too much confidence in their Master's strength.

Aside from anything else, just that heavy armor weighed over three hundred jin.

The heavy armor was thick; even if Master himself chopped at it, he couldn't cut through it.

An expert who could crush iron into mud would be quite remarkable if they could leave a finger-print on the heavy armor.

Master, wearing heavy armor, had charged into battle over a hundred times and had never been injured.

This time, with Chu Qing coming, he was sure to die.
