Chapter 160 Cruel And rciless
Martial Arts Alley.
It was on a street in the prefecture for the middle-class. The people who lived here were not as wealthy as the Ni family and the Fang family, which were inherited clans, but they were much better than the people who lived in slums.
When Ou Yangming and Sui Hezhi arrived at the Martial Arts Alley, they heard a clamor.
A few big n, who were dressed like runners, guarded the alley to disallow anyone from passing. By looking from outside the alley, Ou Yangming and Sui Hezhi could see that the floor was covered in blood.
Ou Yangming raised his eyebrow and felt his blood boil. He strode into the alley.
“Who are you? Stand right there!” One of the runner’s face changed and shouted while he swiftly swung a tal rod at Ou Yangming’s shoulder.
“Hmph!”
Ou Yangming scoffed and tilted his body a little to dodge the rod wonderfully, then he leaned forward.
The runner, who had lost his footing, scread and was sent flying such that he crashed into his partner behind him. The two of them instantly groaned and rolled on the ground like gourds.
As a result of the noise, the people inside were alerted, but before they had co out, Ou Yangming and Sui Hezhi entered the house.
After Ou Yangming entered the house, Ou Yangming understood why they were daring enough to want to murder soone for money.
The house was a great place indeed. Not only did it have a spacious courtyard and a few rooms, but the buildings were also handled with care. The place was marvelous, but it gave off a special feeling of peace. If a weak lady lost the protection of a powerful older brother, it would be difficult for her to protect the property.
A few n quickly surrounded them. Apart from the few runners, there were also three n, who were dressed like martial artists, and a plump middle-aged man.
“It’s him, yes, it’s him!” The middle-aged man’s eyes lit up at the sight of Sui Hezhi and was elated. “Constable Yang, this fella is one of the bad guys who trespassed the private property. Quickly arrest him and interrogate him by torture! Ah, there’s another b*stard here, arrest...”
Before he could finish, his vision beca blurry. The young man, whom he regarded as a b*stard, had unexpectedly appeared in front of him.
“Be careful!”
“Dodge!”
The voices that were suddenly heard suggested to the middle-aged man that sothing was off. Nonetheless, he heard a gust of wind before he could even react.
Following that, the middle-aged man’s body involuntarily flew up and turned one round in the air before he fell hard to the ground. The middle-aged man felt an imnse pain on his face while he was also dizzy from the fall, and the pain quickly turned numb such that half of his body lost sensitivity.
Constable Yang and the three martial artists charged at the sa ti, but Ou Yangming had attacked swiftly, decisively, and rcilessly. Therefore, even though the n gave their all, they could not manage to save their friend.
The four of them felt their faces burn as well, and they tried to grab Ou Yangming at the sa ti with the intention to take down the fanatic.
Nevertheless, Ou Yangming suddenly roared, “The military is capturing gangsters, and anyone in the way — including their family mbers — will be killed!”
His voice was like deafening thunder in the void that subsequently shook their minds.
Not to ntion Constable Yang subconsciously slowed down, the three martial artists froze as well.
Despite that, Ou Yangming did not slow down. He lowered his body and went close to the inner arm of one of the martial artists, then launched a hit with his fist like a venomous snake that ca out of a cave to catch its prey. He punched at such perfect timing, which was when the man was hesitating. In addition, Ou Yangming’s body movent was unpredictable, so it was impossible for the man to guard against him. The martial artist only had the cultivation base of Yin Grade Class One, hence he was punched in the neck before he could even react.
A loud sound was heard, then the man’s body instantly went weak. Ou Yangming’s punch was rciless as it simply decided the man’s fate. Just as the man wanted to dodge, he was already killed.
“Little Brother!” Another martial artist widened his eyes and shouted sorrowfully as he pounced on the man regardless of the cost. However, Ou Yangming dragged and pushed the corpse away without batting an eyelid.
The other martial artist was mournful, but he subconsciously hugged his brother’s body, and it was then when he felt a throbbing pain on his abdon. When the martial artist lowered his head to look, he saw a dagger being stabbed through his and his brother’s abdon.
He recognized the dagger because it was his brother’s weapon.
Ou Yangming had dragged the corpse earlier to pull out the dagger, and he used the dead body as a cover to stab the dagger through it to injure the other martial artist. On top of that, Ou Yangming shook his wrist to channel surging essential Qi into the martial artist’s body, causing the man’s internal organs to disintegrate.
Having suffered such injuries, even God could not save the martial artist.
The remaining martial artist turned pale and was frightened. His cultivation base was similar to his companions’, and he had thought that they would be fine if they attacked together. That said, his partners had died in the blink of an eye, hence he shivered in fear with knees that had gone weak.
Constable Yang gasped. Being a constable, he had seen plenty of fierce people. Even then, he had only encountered very few who were cruel, rciless, and could kill with one fatal move.
“Who are you? Aren’t you afraid of being wanted by the authorities for killing innocent people?” The constable backed away and yelled. He sounded fierce, but he was standing in a defensive stance; ready to retreat at any ti.
“Wanted?” Ou Yangming sneered. “Sui Hezhi, were these three n involved?”
Sui Hezhi was dumbfounded. He had witnessed the skills of the few n and knew that they were more than just diocre, but they were weak against Ou Yangming and were killed almost instantly.
After being asked loudly by Ou Yangming, Sui Hezhi quickly answered, “Yes, they were all involved!”
“Very well! According to the law, their heads should be chopped off for attacking and killing a serving military officer, and their family mbers will suffer the sa fate!” Ou Yangming said with a deep voice, then he roared like a killing god at the last martial artist. “Do you want to be seized, or do you want to be killed?”
When Ou Yangming questioned, his ntal power suddenly burst out. Although it could not cause physical damage, it beca an enormous ntal pressure.
The martial artist collapsed due to fear, and he trembled so much that he could not even let a word out.
In actual fact, while Ou Yangming’s ntal power posed a certain pressure on the man, it would not be extrely fearso.
Nonetheless, he had attacked ruthlessly earlier and killed two n without warning. As such, his malicious act was more effective than words and pressure, by which the last martial artist was already shaking with a palsy of fright.
Ou Yangming sneered and turned to say, “Constable Yang, seeing as we share imperial funds and goods, I won’t kill you, but if you dare to interfere, don’t bla !”
Constable Yang’s face was as white as a sheet. He mumbled, “Wh-which military camp are you from? What military order are you serving?”
“You don’t deserve to know,” Ou Yangming uttered coldly. He later ignored the constable and approached the plump middle-aged man.
Constable Yang’s face was green and white, but he felt a chill when he looked at the corpses on the floor. When he looked at his terrified followers behind him, he no longer wanted to push his luck.
He had actually guessed the reason behind this matter when Ou Yangming brought up the military, thus he got rid of the idea to stop the fight. When one brought evil upon oneself, there would be no hope of escape, after all...
When Ou Yangming cast a cold look at the plump man, the man quivered out of fear and shouted, “Mi-Military Master! I’m an officer from the Liang family. Please spare , this has nothing to do with ...”
Even the Yin Grade martial artist had sprawled on the floor due to Ou Yangming’s ruthlessness, let alone this middle-aged man who obviously lived a comfortable life.
Ou Yangming said slowly, “I’ve co on military orders to investigate an important matter, and you’ll answer when I ask. If you answer well, I’ll spare you; if you don’t, you’ll end up like them.”
“Yes, yes!”
“What’s your na?”
“Liang Jiafu, my na is Liang Jiafu, and I’m an officer from the Liang residence.” He kept bringing up the Liang residence, which was evident that he was strongly hopeful about it.
Ou Yangming scorned. “Where’s the squad leader who was captured by accident?”.
“In the cellar, he’s in the cellar!” Liang Jiafu replied to him tearfully, “We didn’t plan to hurt him as we only wanted to scare him away, but he insisted on attacking us, so we were left with no choice!”
“Where are the two other n who also attacked him?” Ou Yangming continued to ask.
“They’re on duty today, so they’ve returned.”
Ou Yangming signaled Sui Hezhi with his eyes, but he quickly asked, “You’re just an officer, so how did you hire five Yin Grade masters to set an ambush?”
“Military Master, when your comrades ca and asked around for information, I was naturally inford, so I only hired them to protect myself.” Ou Yangming casually asked a few questions, and he asked so quickly that the man had no ti to think.
At the spur of the mont, Ou Yangming questioned, “Where’s the original female owner here? Did you kill her?”
“No!” Liang Jiafu subconsciously blurted, but he quickly reacted and explained, “Military Master, we really didn’t kill anyone! We only scared the lady away, but she went missing in the end.”
“Master Ou, I found him!”
Sui Hezhi shouted in excitent as he carried Yan Haobo and ran over.
Yan Haobo was obviously severely injured because he could not use his limbs, but as long as he was still alive, Ou Yangming could heal him.
Ou Yangming’s ears twitched a little, and he uttered coldly, “Return to the camp!” “What?” Sui Hezhi asked as he was startled
Ou Yangming did not explain and simply ran away after carrying Yan Haobo. Sui Hezhi was confused, but he followed the young fellow.
Liang Jiafu sighed a breath of relief because he managed to survive.
On the other hand, Constable Yang had a grave expression on his face because he had a vague feeling that this was not the end, and a bigger storm might be coming.
