579: Chapter 2: Your Painting Style is Very Wrong 579: Chapter 2: Your Painting Style is Very Wrong How did the world suddenly beco like this?
The uncle who always doted on , the first thing he said when he saw was to ask where the Imperial Jade Seal was.
And his n, they actually struck down the old man who took in, who boiled water for , who lent his phone, at the first opportunity.
This is murder to silence witnesses!
“Don’t touch !”
Shen Qingxi slapped away Shen Zhinan’s hand as he tried to grab her, “What on earth are you trying to do?”
“Qingxi, be obedient!”
Seeing that Shen Qingxi refused to cooperate, Shen Zhinan’s expression suddenly beca gloomy, “With such a big change happening at ho, stop throwing temper tantrums and co back with imdiately!”
“You just killed soone!”
“Isn’t that because of you!”
Shen Zhinan pulled out a gun and pressed it against Shen Qingxi’s forehead, gritting his teeth, “If you want to die, then die cleanly.
Who told you to survive?
What use is there in you coming back to life?
Where did you hide the Imperial Jade Seal?
Do you have any idea that because of this thing, the Shen Family is almost at the brink of ruin!”
“I…”
Shen Qingxi frowned at Shen Zhinan, “Uncle, what are you talking about?
The Imperial Jade Seal was sothing grandfather ca across by chance a few days ago.
Even if it’s now lost, at most, the Shen Family would only have to bear the responsibility of improper safeguarding.
How could it possibly lead to the destruction of the household?”
“And how does this necessarily connect to you killing soone in front of ?”
“Because I feel like it!
Because I want to!”
Shen Zhinan turned the gun towards the old man’s corpse and fired three shots, then stared at Shen Qingxi fiercely, “So what if I killed soone?
I’ll kill whoever I want to kill!
Is it your place to ddle in my affairs?”
Shen Qingxi looked blankly at her own uncle, suddenly understanding.
He had been tainted.
The uncle was known as a good-for-nothing in the Shen Family, proficient in drinking, gambling, and all forms of debauchery—a notorious prodigal.
Such a person would have no resistance to the taint.
At this ti, one of the attendants ca up from behind and pressed down on Shen Qingxi’s shoulder, whispering, “Third Miss, don’t make us use force.”
Shen Qingxi looked at the flying dagger on the old man’s neck and said softly, “Killing people is illegal.”
“Offend…”
The attendant didn’t take Shen Qingxi’s attitude to heart, thinking it was just the lady’s Holy Mother complex acting up, so he applied so force on the hand on her shoulder, attempting to forcibly take her away.
But he couldn’t move her.
At first, he didn’t understand what was happening and gradually increased the force of his hand, not expecting that despite giving it his all, he couldn’t budge the fragile-looking Third Miss at all.
Shen Zhinan realized sothing was wrong and imdiately pointed the gun at Shen Qingxi, demanding harshly, “Stop playing tricks!”
“Killing people is illegal.”
“Dammit, I told you to stop babbling!”
Unable to control the anger in his heart, Shen Zhinan raised his hand to slap Shen Qingxi across the face.
Shen Qingxi didn’t move, and his hand broke.
“Ah ah ah my hand—!”
Shen Zhinan dropped the gun and, cradling his broken hand, began to wail.
The rest of the attendants looked at each other, and when they looked back at Shen Qingxi, there was now a hint of wariness in their eyes.
It was at this mont that they seed to suddenly rember that the girl in front of them might not really be the innocent and kind-hearted Third Miss of the Shen Family, powerless to even truss a chicken.
“Third Master…
sothing seems off about the Third Miss, maybe we should…”
“Shut your mouth!”
Shen Zhinan, holding his fractured hand, stood up with the help of his attendants and stared at Shen Qingxi as he interrogated, “What exactly are you?”
Shen Qingxi sighed, “Uncle, don’t you know?
Since I wasn’t suited for the Shen Family’s inherited Secret Technique, grandfather found another Dharma Gate for to cultivate.”
“What Secret Technique?
What Dharma Gate?”
Shen Zhinan was completely baffled, “What on earth are you?”
That day, they could no longer continue their conversation.
Shen Qingxi shook her head and turned to walk towards the phone.
“What are you doing?”
“Calling the police.”
“Stop!”
Shen Zhinan paled with fright and turned to shout at his subordinates, “Kill her!”
While most were hesitant, a few with less functioning brains didn’t hesitate to raise their guns and pull the triggers at Shen Qingxi.
Ding ding dong dong——!
The bullets from the handguns fell onto the ground behind Shen Qingxi, producing the sound of tal striking tal, and they were ricocheted in all directions.
Now everyone was panicking.
What sort of monster was this?
Just as Shen Qingxi was about to pick up the phone, a withered hand reached out from beside her and pressed down on the handset.
She turned her head and to her surprise, it was the small old man who had just been silenced, now looking at her with a chuckling expression.
Yi!
Shen Qingxi leaped up like a startled rabbit, scared out of her wits.
That was terrifying!
The small old man said with a chuckle, “Miss, this isn’t the kind of place to carelessly call the police.”
Ah?
Shen Qingxi wore a baffled expression.
Was that even human language?
Shen Zhinan and his subordinates were also stunned.
Coming out tonight really was like seeing ghosts…
No, that wasn’t it, one shouldn’t casually go out on the evening of every first day of the month, right?
“Retreat!”
Realizing that sothing eerie was afoot, Shen Zhinan finally snapped back to reality and turned to run out.
But as he turned, he saw that the church doors had silently closed at so unknown ti, and one by one, “people” who had been seated within the empty church rose to their feet.
Bang bang bang bang——!
Ah ah ah ah——!
The sounds of gunfire and screams intertwined, forming an exhilarating tune on this moonless night.
Shen Qingxi’s eyes widened as she looked on helplessly at the carnage unfolding before her.
All I wanted was to go ho, why did it turn out like this?
She instinctively wanted to close her eyes, cover her ears, turn around and run away.
But just then, two unseen pressures quietly enveloped her, making it difficult for her to breathe and causing her legs to go weak.
Shen Qingxi turned her head with a feeling of foreboding and saw the eyes of two statues at the Altar, which had been served as Attendants, had opened.
Their gaze, neither sad nor happy, fell steadily upon her.
Outside the church, soone gently knocked on the door.
Shen Qingxi heard a soft whisper in her ear, “Don’t make eye contact with those statues, run away quickly!”
She instinctively tried to move her feet, but a chain seemingly erging out of thin air wrapped tightly around her ankles, preventing her from breaking free.
Shen Qingxi let out a scream, and in an instant, her right arm transford into a steel circular saw, striking down viciously towards the chain at her feet.
Sparks flew!
In a daze, she seed to hear soone exclaim in surprise, “Holy shit?”
However, due to the overwhelming fear and tension, she didn’t pay attention to the exclamation, and in the blink of an eye, she underwent the transformation from flesh and blood to a steel chanical giant.
With the turning of gears and levers, along with the thunderous roar of the power engine, a chanical giant twelve feet tall slowly stood up, punching a huge hole in the ceiling of the church on the spot.
