Chapter 39: Outrage Among Gods and Humans, Killed on the Spot_2
A few ruffians gradually walked out of the village head's house, with the village head hunched and expressionless leading them towards Chen Gouzi's home.
At this time, they were full from drink and food and in an extremely pleasant mood, humming all the way.
One of the ruffians suddenly paused his steps, stopping in front of a simple earthen house.
The wooden door was half-closed, making it hard to see inside.
"Old Five, what's up?"
"I just saw a girl, she's so pretty. Who said the girls in this village aren't good-looking? Wait for me a moment."
A brawny ruffian, with a malicious grin, walked towards the half-closed wooden door.
Bang.
The wooden door slammed shut.
The ruffian, however, laughed instead of getting angry: "I knew there's a lovely girl living in here." Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire
He suddenly crashed into the door, pushing it open and stormed inside with big strides.
Inside the house, sunlight streamed through the door onto a young girl.
She was so frightened by the sudden change that her face lost all color, terrified, and backed away, trembling: "What are... what do you want?"
The ruffian who broke in, leered as he reached out to grab the girl's wrist and said: "Little lady, don't be afraid, come have some fun with us."
The girl struggled desperately, tears bursting out: "Let go of me. Let go of me!"
However, she was just a girl with no strength, being forcibly dragged into the room by the ruffian, towards the bed.
"Help!"
Her cries were sharp and desperate, carried far away.
Unfortunately, the cries seemed to sink into the sea with no response.
Although villagers rushed over upon hearing, they all hid at a distance, only daring to gather secretly to peek.
Their eyes were filled with anger and helplessness, and no one dared to step forward to stop it.
"This bunch of beasts, they're completely lawless!"
Someone in the crowd cursed under their breath, clenching their fists in anger, shaking all over.
"Worse than animals!"
Another villager replied bitterly: "But what can we do? Even if we could fight them, they have Huang Daxian backing them, and once provoked, none of us can escape, only to die."
Meanwhile, Chen Gouzi heard the commotion in the village and knew those ruffians had come, sitting dejectedly at the doorway.
Beside him, the woman behind him was heartbroken, holding the little girl tightly, tears streaming down.
The little girl blinked her bright eyes, looking exceptionally calm, she comforted in a childish voice: "Dad, Mom, don't be afraid, big brother will protect me."
Chen Gouzi and his wife didn't take the little girl's words seriously.
In their view, how could such a prestigious person be willing to stand up for them?
Just as they were thinking this, Shen Qing, who was meditating on the ground, stood up.
After a whole night and half a day's recuperation, he was able to move freely, with his cultivation restored to about fifty percent.
Shen Qing walked straight out the door.
"Big brother, where are you going?" the little girl asked curiously.
Shen Qing didn't look back and said: "Going to take care of something, I'll be back soon, you stay here, don't go anywhere."
The little girl didn't understand but nodded and agreed: "Okay!"
Inside the earthen house, the screams of the girl continued, causing surrounding villagers to feel unbearable.
"Look, it's that young master brought back yesterday, he's coming over."
"What is he trying to do? Is he going in there to rescue San Ni?"
"Crazy, definitely crazy! Does this young man think he's invincible?"
"Even if he gets rid of this group of ruffians, what's the use, with 'Huang Daxian' behind them, he can wipe out our village with ease!"
The villagers whispered, talking amongst themselves.
Shen Qing ignored them, walking steadily towards the little earthen house under the villagers' surprised gazes, step by step.
He pushed open the door, and a stale and damp smell hit him in the face.
Inside the house, a half-clothed girl was curled up in the corner, eyes full of despair and fear.
The ruffian inside, still smirking, was closing in, playing with the girl like a cat and mouse.
Noticing Shen Qing's arrival, the ruffian was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Where did this stinkin' beggar come from, dare ruin my fun? Get lost, or else, don't blame me for being impolite..."
Before he finished the last word, Shen Qing expressionless, flashed and was in front of him immediately.
Shen Qing reached out, directly grabbing the ruffian by the neck, easily lifting him up.
The ruffian was shocked, his legs kicking wildly in the air, hands clawing at Shen Qing's arm.
Unfortunately, no matter how he struggled, it was futile.
With a twist of his wrist, Shen Qing directly crushed the ruffian's throat.
The ruffian's legs went limp, his life ended instantly, and everything returned to calm.
"Ah!" The girl screamed in terror.
Shen Qing paid no heed.
He casually tore off the ruffian's head and walked out grandly.
When Shen Qing appeared in everyone's sight again, the bloody head in his hand rendered everyone instantly silent.
In the sunlight, his gaze was icy like frost, sending an indescribable chill down everyone's spine present.
It seemed like the temperature dropped a few degrees on the scene.
Shen Qing tossed the bloody head casually, glanced at the other ruffians, and asked: "Are you the ones wanting to take Niuniu away?"
His voice was not loud yet clearly heard by everyone, exuding an aura unique to someone in power.
The leader snapped out of it, barking threateningly: "Audacious, do you know who we are?"
Shen Qing let out a cold laugh, his eyes icy causing people to shiver with fear: "Of course I know who you are. Don't doubt it, I came here for you."
Now, having broken through to the Primordial Spirit level, his consciousness was sharp.
He sensed them as soon as they entered the village.
He never planned to let this group go.
The leader's heart sank instantly, with a bad premonition, yet didn't show much fear, instead laughed heartily: "Coming for us? Look at yourself, we're numerous and powerful, who do you think you are?"
Shen Qing said no more, his figure flickered like a specter appearing before the ruffians.
The ruffians were immediately shocked, they hadn't even seen Shen Qing's shadow just now.
The speed was unexpectedly this fast?
A ruffian quickly swung his fist to meet.
However, his fist was like a child's before Shen Qing, without any threat.
"Is this all you've got?" Shen Qing sneered disdainfully, extending a finger.
A golden energy beam flashed by, and the ruffian's head fell off.
The surrounding ruffians let out a scream, faces full of shock and fear, retreating a few steps quickly.
He'd never seen such a powerful martial artist, unable to comprehend Shen Qing.
"Who...who on earth are you?" the leading ruffian asked nervously.
"Who I am doesn't matter, the dead don't need to know much." Shen Qing replied in a cold tone, using a finger again.
This time, the golden energy beam pierced through another ruffian's chest, his eyes flashed an unwillingness, desperately trying to save himself.
However, his chest had been penetrated, gushing blood, totally unstoppable.
With a thud.
This ruffian powerlessly fell to the ground.
The remaining few were terrified, fleeing in panic but were too late, no way to escape Shen Qing's grasps.
In a moment, most of these ruffians, usually perpetuating evil deeds, lay in pools of blood, leaving only the leader alone.
The scene was deathly silent.
Countless villagers looked at Shen Qing standing in front of the wooden house, at the corpses all around, emotions surging within their hearts.
"My God, how did he do it?"
"It's over, it's over, he killed those ruffians, 'Huang Daxian' definitely won't let us go, we're doomed."
...
Shen Qing didn't mind these remarks, walking straight to the lone leader, asking: "Where does Huang Daxian live?"
"What do you want to do?"
"I want to kill him!"
