178: Chapter 178 One man, one woman and one god

Han Jingyang glanced to the side.

Good heavens, he's quite the talent.

He spilled all the basic information the moment he opened his mouth, and quite coherently at that.

However, this was far from enough.

After returning today, Han Jingyang had felt that something was off. Reflecting on the whole process, Liu Jian's abnormal attitude finally aroused his suspicion.

Although Liu Jian behaved like a greedy, stingy, and unscrupulous villain.

Yet, it was Liu Qing who was paying, not spending a cent of Liu Jian's money. Why would Liu Jian go out of his way to act like a villain?

Even if Liu Jian really was someone who couldn't see the big picture, what about Liu Qing?

Why didn't Liu Qing stop Liu Jian when he was speaking?

Liu Qing was able to build his company to such a large scale; his ability was definitely not poor, and he should have been able to come up with a better solution.

Even if Liu Qing were just an ordinary person, he shouldn't have stood there indifferently.

Therefore, after pondering for a long time and combining the information he had observed, he was certain that something was going on here; it was definitely not as simple as building a tomb for the Liu family's matriarch.

Of course, whatever the Liu family wanted to do had nothing to do with him.

Tonight, he only wanted to perform Dragon Slaying.

Revenge? That didn't exist.

He was slaying a dragon vein; what did that have to do with the Liu family?

Thinking of this, Han Jingyang patted Liu Ming on the shoulder. "What is your name?"

"Liu Ming."

"Are you related to Liu Qing's family?"

"No, no, we just happen to share the same surname, Liu."

"Good. Let me ask you again. Starting from this small hill and extending toward the Yellow River, where is the edge of Liu Qing's land?"

"Walk about three hundred meters that way. There is a neatly paved path between the fields. That path is the dividing line between Liu Qing's field and the others'."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I often work for his family, so I can't be wrong. If I'm lying, then, then let that black, that black devil next to you eat me alive."

A black devil? Hahaha. That's interesting.

I just don't know if Chaotian Temple would like that nickname.

But it was quite fitting. A black ghost; if it's not a black devil, what is it?

Han Jingyang suppressed his laughter and patted Liu Ming on the shoulder. "Call Liu Jian."

"Huh?"

"Tell him that two people and a god have come to the other side of the mountain, and they say they are here for Dragon Slaying."

"Huh?"

"Do you have any questions?"

"No, no," Liu Ming nodded hurriedly.

Liu Jing swung her blade down. The zip tie on Liu Ming's wrist snapped in response, yet his wrist remained unharmed.

Han Jingyang nodded inwardly. Good swordsmanship.

This young woman, Liu Jing, was becoming more and more formidable. Her swordsmanship was increasingly reminiscent of Lord Guan—fast and precise. She would surely achieve great things in the future.

...

Xiaohe Village. In Liu Qing's villa.

Liu Jian was sleeping soundly when his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up groggily. "Who is it?"

"Little Jian, it's me, Daming."

"Oh, Daming, what is it?" Liu Jian suddenly became fully awake as he spoke. "Aren't you on duty? What? Is there a situation over there?"

"This... Little Jian, I don't know how to tell you, but you must not be afraid."

"Speak!"

"It, it's like this. Just now, a man, a woman, and a god came here..."

"What the hell?"

"A man, a woman, and a god?"

"Liu Ming, what the hell are you playing at? A god? What kind of god?"

"The kind that is very powerful. It's over three meters tall, pitch black all over, has a sword and a snake, a bloody mouth, and golden light on its body. It's very scary."

The more Liu Jian listened, the more confused he became, and he began to curse. "What kind of nonsense is this? Liu Daming, did you drink? Damn it, give the phone to Huo Qian and let him talk."

"Huo Qian, he, he has been tied up."

"What? Who did it?"

"That man and that woman."

"What man and woman?"

"I just told you. A man, a woman, and a god. They came together, and as soon as they appeared, they tied both of us up."

"What do they look like?" Liu Jian quickly calmed down.

Never mind the god for now. The man and woman were the priority. Tying people up as soon as they arrived meant they weren't here with good intentions.

Could it be that brat Han Jingyang? That brat also has a pretty girl following him around.

Thinking of this, he asked in a deep voice, "How did you escape?"

Liu Ming answered honestly, "I didn't escape."

"Then how are you able to make a call?"

"He let me call."

Liu Jian was silent for a moment before asking, "What does he mean?"

Liu Ming honestly repeated Han Jingyang's words, "He told me to say that a man, a woman, and a god have come to the other side of the mountain and are here for Dragon Slaying."

"Dragon Slaying?" Liu Jian was completely confused. What was wrong with Liu Ming?

Talking nonsense. First a god, then a dragon. There's no such thing in the world. Dragon Slaying, indeed.

Is Liu Bowen reincarnated? Liu Bowen? Dragon Slaying?

Liu Jian paused, then thought of the legends related to Liu Bowen. He was suddenly terrified, jumped out of bed, and ran outside, shouting, "Something's wrong—!"

A few minutes later, the three Liu brothers gathered a group of people and headed straight for the back of the village.

There were over forty people in total, all carrying weapons as if they were rushing to put out a fire.

Because Liu Qing had said that as long as they drove the people away, everyone who came tonight would receive a ten-thousand-yuan bonus.

Money makes the mare go. These villagers naturally worked hard, fearing that if they ran too slowly, Liu Qing would look down on them.

Therefore, they arrived at the field in less than ten minutes.

After getting close and seeing the faces of Han Jingyang and Liu Jing, a panting Liu Qing cupped his hands. "Mr. Han, I am truly sorry. This morning's incident was our brothers' fault. To show our apology, I will pay double the fee. Please, Mr. Han, have mercy."

Han Jingyang smiled. "Some people just don't shed tears until they see the coffin."

Liu Qing nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes, yes. We brothers were short-sighted and didn't understand Mr. Han's power. Now we truly realize our mistake. Mr. Han, please give us a chance to correct it."

"Correct it?"

"Yes, yes, yes, correct it, sincerely." As Liu Qing said this, he pushed Liu Jian out. "Big brother, apologize to Mr. Han!"

Liu Jian walked toward Han Jingyang with his head lowered, his hands clasped together, his face full of pleading. "Mr. Han, I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness. Whether you want to beat me or kill me, I accept it. I only ask that you show mercy. Please, I beg you. This dragon vein concerns the life and death of my whole family; nothing can happen to it."

Han Jingyang stared at Liu Jian and sneered. "You know how to beg for mercy now? What were you doing earlier? Also, don't use those words to pressure me. Your family's life and death have nothing to do with the dragon vein. Get lost. Looking at you makes me sick."

Liu Jian lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and slowly retreated, while at the same time, he made a gesture with his right hand behind his back.

Seeing this, Liu Qing stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Han, do you really want to take things to the extreme?"

Han Jingyang sneered again. "Am I the one taking things to the extreme?"

"My big brother made a mistake, but he has already apologized. What else do you want? Must you drive our whole family to death before you'll stop?"

"Just because you apologize, does it mean I must accept it?"

"It's not 'must', but it's only right. Besides, I even offered double compensation. What? Not satisfied? Triple, quadruple, quintuple, sextuple—three million. Satisfied now? Isn't it money you want? Don't think I don't know what kind of person you are. As long as you have a hold on the client, you squeeze them for money, wishing you could empty their wallet. The moment things don't go your way, you use Feng Shui Arts to threaten the host! Disgusting! A disgrace to metaphysics!"
