Chapter 539: Chapter 301: Expert? What a Joke!
People always say this is a world that devours people... but you can’t really eat them.
The common people are suffering, living in misery, even resorting to cannibalism in extreme conditions, which is a tragic situation.
But that’s not the case with Qiushi Manor.
The Little Blade King, Li Shengxing, is renowned in the Martial World, with a grand mansion in Tongyao City and a vast Qiushi Manor outside the city.
A prosperous family, its wealth is overwhelming.
They do this purely out of malice.
Chu Qing understood why Niao Shisan and Yu Shiliu were terrified of this matter, especially Niao Shisan, who was so horrified that just mentioning it would make him break down.
They could accept being the lowest slaves, could accept the frequent beatings and scolding from those people.
Could also accept sleeping in cages, completely not being regarded as human.
But... watching the friends they grew up with, who shared the same fate, become dishes for so-called ’nobles,’ even watching their flesh being eaten piece by piece.
That kind of fear is indescribable.
They are not Chu Qing, they do not possess the superb Martial Arts, are powerless to resist, and whenever they think of their future, all they can feel is fear.
So, Niao Shisan fled.
He used all his strength to escape from his cage, and by chance, he stumbled into Heaven-Reaching Manor.
Yu Shiliu also wanted to run... but her luck was a bit worse, though not to the extreme.
Because Chu Qing happened to arrive here on this night.
But before this?
During the time when Niao Shisan hadn’t seen, after he escaped.
How many people died in that pot?
Were swallowed by that steward Wang, or Li Shengxing?
A chill rose in Chu Qing’s eyes, guiding his Inner Breath to transform into Gang Wind, stirring his hair and clothes.
There was also a killing intent boiling in Wu Qianhuan’s eyes.
The original purpose of coming here was mainly for that steward Wang...
So they aimed to keep their tracks hidden, unwilling to expose themselves easily, and didn’t pay special attention to the other people in this manor.
But now...
"Who goes there?"
The security of Qiushi Manor was indeed very tight, and in this short time, patrols had arrived.
Therefore, they noticed the changes here at a glance.
Immediately, someone shouted angrily:
"There are assassins!!!"
One word stirred up a thousand waves, met with moonlight like a sword.
The full moon rose high, moonlight like a sword.
The angry roar turned into a miserable scream, and Chu Qing looked at Yu Shiliu:
"Do you know where Wang Kuan is?"
Yu Shiliu looked at the miserable state of the fat man, then at those guards who could easily control her life and death, finding that they had no strength to resist in Wu Qianhuan’s hands.
She was convinced that tonight she might survive...
She nodded:
"I know, I’ll take you to him."
She turned to lead the way, but as she turned, she saw a group of guards approaching.
Instinctively, she wanted to squat down with her head covered, but a hand stopped her action.
She looked back at Chu Qing, just in time to see Chu Qing bring his hands together, unleashing a blazing flame that swept across, forming a line of fire over ten feet long. The peculiar glow flared up, and the guards charging ahead didn’t even have time to scream before being sliced in half with terror on their faces.
The blazing flame burned their clothes, and the guards, not yet completely dead, let out low moans until they fell silent.
Wu Qianhuan, seeing this, couldn’t help but grin.
During the journey with the trade caravan, Chu Qing had demonstrated this Martial Arts before.
Wu Qianhuan was puzzled, feeling that Chu Qing’s Pure Yang Inner Power was perhaps overly formidable?
Yu Shiliu gaped, wondering if she had encountered an Immortal.
Chu Qing gently reminded:
"Let’s go."
Yu Shiliu snapped back to reality and led Chu Qing forward.
There were still guards on the way, one could say that there was a steady stream of guards coming.
But Chu Qing didn’t stop for this reason. He simply killed whoever stepped in his path; anyone who dared to block the way had only one outcome, which was death.
He didn’t kill them all because he didn’t want to give Wang Kuan time to escape.
Once they caught Wang Kuan, Chu Qing didn’t plan to spare the entire Qiushi Manor.
Kill what should be killed, slash what should be slashed, destroy what should be destroyed!
Since it was something that shouldn’t exist in the world, it should be destroyed.
But at this moment, Chu Qing couldn’t help but wonder... Are there others like Niao Shisan and Yu Shiliu experiencing similar things in the lands of Liaoyuan Mansion?
Chu Qing didn’t know the reason why Li Shengxing and others were eating people.
Was it purely to satisfy their appetite? Or was there a deeper reason...
But in Liaoyuan Mansion and Star Split Mansion, there were those slaves completely unable to make decisions for themselves.
Just like Niao Shisan and Yu Shiliu, if they encountered a master like Li Shengxing, then wouldn’t such tragic events be everywhere?
Thinking of this, the killing intent in Chu Qing’s heart grew stronger.
And at this moment, the entire Qiushi Manor was shaking.
Originally thinking that only a few small-time thieves had come, easily dealt with, but the commotion grew bigger and bigger.
This made many people restless...
Yu Shiliu led Chu Qing through a secret door.
They descended a staircase; there weren’t many guards here, as Niao Shisan and Yu Shiliu had also stumbled in accidentally earlier without being discovered.
