Chapter 40
The Head by the Chamber Pot
Boom! The door was broken, and the three people on the bed were suddenly startled. The two women screamed and covered their bodies with the quilt.
Shi Junhong’s face was filled with anger. He stared at Jiang Ming with fury and roared, “who are you? How dare you break into my door?”
The newcomer had thick limbs, a fierce-looking face, and a pair of tiger-like eyes. He laughed out loud and said, “Shi Junhong, you’ve committed many evil deeds. I, Grandpa Zhang Shan, am here to collect your head today!”
Shi Junhong was stunned for a moment. Then, he laughed angrily. “B*stard, you must have eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard, right?”
Just as the two of them were talking, two figures suddenly attacked from outside the door. The wind whistled, and two long sabers were already slashing at the muscular man’s vital parts.
“You don’t know what’s good for you!” Shi Junhong laughed coldly. He looked at this unfamiliar muscular man with a face full of ridicule. Did he really think that he was an idiot?
He had done countless evil things, so he naturally knew that there were countless people who wanted to seek revenge on him. Without the protection of two martial artists, he would not go out at all.
It was as if Shi Junhong could already see this arrogant fellow being chopped into pieces by his two guards.
“When we return this time, these two guards must also be whipped and thrown into the water.” In a flash, the anger in Shi Junhong’s heart rose. “Someone actually broke in, and you couldn’t even stop him!”
The muscular man seemed to be startled by the person behind him and shouted angrily, “Little thief, how dare you sneak attack Grandpa?”
He suddenly turned around, and without using any moves, he threw a punch forward.
The fist momentum was like a mountain, towering and heavy!
“Not good! A third-class martial artist!”
The two people who were attacking turned pale with shock.
Shi Junhong’s expression also changed greatly. Although he was a disciple of the Shi family, he was not a direct descendant. Otherwise, he would not have been sent to a place like Peace Town, which was a useless place.
The guards that he usually assigned to him were only unranked martial artists. They were naturally able to deal with ordinary people, but against a third-class martial artist, they were nothing.
“Damn it, when did I offend such an expert?”
Shi Junhong’s expression changed. Although he was arrogant, he knew his own worth. He had only bullied those without any status. He had never provoked a real martial artist. No matter how hard he thought, he could not figure out where this third-class martial artist had come from.
One should know that martial artists were not common, let alone third-class martial artists. There were only a few of them in the city. It was impossible for one to suddenly appear out of nowhere.
Bang!
In the blink of an eye, the muscular man’s fist, which carried the force of a thousand rocks, had already avoided the saber and smashed into the chest of a guard.
The guard let out a blood-curdling screech as he was sent flying. He stopped moving in mid-air, and his voice faded away.
“Eh? He’s overconfident?”
Shi Junhong’s face was filled with joy. He saw that the strong man’s fist was too fierce, but he had no way to turn around. The other saber was already approaching his neck.
“You’re looking for death!” The muscular man was furious. It was as if he only had time to avoid his vital parts and use his back to take the blow.
As the blade swept past, blood spurted out. The muscular man’s clothes were torn apart, and a wound so deep that his bones could be seen appeared on his back.
“I cut him!” The guard shouted in joy.
Shi Junhong was also overjoyed. Although the strength and speed of third-class martial artists had increased by a lot, they had not yet tempered their skin and flesh with blood Qi. When they were cut by a blade, they were not much stronger than ordinary people.
“I’m so angry!” The muscular man seemed to be completely enraged. He turned around and caught the blade with his hands. Then, he kicked the guard away and snatched the saber.
Then, he pounced forward and shouted, “Die!”
The saber slashed down, cutting through the shoulder and internal organs. Half of the guard’s body flew up immediately, and blood splattered all over the corridor.
“Worthless dogs!”
The muscular man laughed coldly. Only then did he turn around and return. However, he realized that Shi Junhong was panicking and trying to escape through the window. He immediately pulled him back and threw him on the ground.
“Sir, please spare my life!” Shi Junhong took advantage of the situation and knelt on the ground, crying bitterly. “I don’t know how I’ve offended you, but please do it for the sake of the Shi family.”
The metal was cold as it streaked across his neck. His head was sent flying, and he died with his eyes open.
“You’re too noisy!” The muscular man sneered. “When I kill, I hate it the most when people beg for mercy. What Shi family and Old Snake Gang? They’re all the same. I’ve come all the way here to kill you evil people who oppress the common people! Bah, he’s not even as tough as those robbers on the official road.”
The muscular man spat and glanced at the two women who were trembling in fear at the corner of the bed. He laughed and walked over. He touched the saber and threw it away. He jumped out of the window and left a trail of blood on the windowsill.
“He killed someone! He killed someone!”
It was only now that the brothel madame outside the door dared to let out a shriek like a pig being slaughtered.
All of this happened too quickly, in less than a dozen breaths. It was only then that someone heard the commotion and walked out of the house. After hearing the brothel madame’s cry, the entire building became chaotic.
In the blink of an eye, Shi Junhong’s door was surrounded by many people.
In the quiet street, a figure moved as fast as lightning and sneaked into an empty house. A moment later, a handsome young man walked out. He activated his blood Qi and disappeared into the night with a few leaps.
* * *
It was noisy everywhere.
Miss Shuang’er’s brows furrowed slightly as she slowly woke up.”What’s happening outside? Why is it so noisy?”
She looked to the side and saw Jiang Ming jumping off the bed naked, revealing his bare back. He was hurriedly putting on his clothes and said excitedly, “I heard that someone died. Do you want to go and take a look?”
“Ah? What should we do?” Miss Shuang’er was shocked, and then her face was full of worry. “It’s affecting the business. I wonder who’s the one who’s dead.”
She also quickly asked Jiang Ming to help her put on her undergarments. She put on a chiffon dress and curled against Jiang Ming’s chest as she walked to the door.
“The effect of this medicine is not bad,” Jiang Ming thought.
The door opened, and Jiang Ming walked with Shuang’er in his arms. Soon, they arrived at the door of the dead man and watched the show with the others.
“Hey, he’s really ruthless. He’s almost as good as the man who killed the bandits on the official road a few months ago.”
“Maybe it’s the same person. We haven’t found that man yet, and the methods are so similar, both very rough and ruthless.”
Someone mustered up the courage to walk into the room and kicked the head beside the chamber pot to turn it around, revealing the face of the deceased.
“Oh no, it’s the young master of the Shi family!” the man immediately exclaimed.
Everyone’s hearts trembled, and their faces were filled with horror. Something big had happened!
Where the hell did this person come from? How dare he kill the Shi family’s young master?
