Water Ink Panel: Starting with Bow Technique to Hunt the Sun and Patrol the Skies Chapter 211 - 37: Kill Them All and Have a Cup of Tea

Zhou Dazhi remained calm and said, "What an imposing figure you are, sir."

He steadied his mind, exuding the authority befitting the head of a family, and stepped forward to question, "Just as well, I need to ask if you killed my father?"

"Why would I kill the village chief?" Shen Qing denied firmly and said with a hint of aning, "Without evidence, do not speak recklessly. Otherwise, it might lead to trouble."

"You still deny it. Who else but you?" Zhou Dazhi said harshly.

Shen Qing asked, "I'm curious, why do you all suspect ? Couldn't it have been a demon?"

"Impossible. It must have been you who killed my father!" Zhou Dazhi asserted, "You, as a dispatcher, killed a court official, breaking the law, deserving of even greater punishnt."

Shen Qing laughed.

The bystanders, who had gathered out of curiosity, had not dispersed; they slowly gathered around, watching them with interest, whispering among themselves.

Shen Qing looked around and then asked, "Are you so sure it was because you are aware of the collusion with demons?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Dazhi and the others exchanged glances, their tone deepened as they spoke, "We don't understand what you're talking about. After committing murder, do you now intend to throw mud on us?"

Shen Qing's lips curved into a slight smile, and he said, "I think you've misunderstood sothing."

"What?"

Shen Qing stepped over the Wolf Demon's corpse while drawing the dagger from his waist.

As the long blade was fully unsheathed, he stood right in front of the Zhou Family mbers.

Shen Qing grinned and said, "Your father was a court official, but you are not. I see your collusion with demons marks you as rebels, deserving of death!"

The last word fell, and Shen Qing's body emanated a chilling killing intent.

Without giving them a chance to react, Shen Qing moved abruptly.

The blade in his hand glinted coldly as he channeled True Qi, driving it toward Zhou Dazhi's chest at an astonishing speed amidst the swooshing sound.

Thud.

The sharp blade silently pierced Zhou Dazhi's chest.

Shen Qing expressionlessly withdrew the dagger, leaving a bloody hole from which blood gushed forth like a spring.

Having now advanced to the Qi Sea Realm, his True Qi was vigorous. Zhou Dazhi had no chance to defend; even with copper skin and iron bones, he stood no chance against Shen Qing.

Zhou Dazhi never imagined Shen Qing would act so swiftly and recklessly, even in public, without any scruples.

He staggered back a few steps and collapsed into the arms of the Zhou Family mbers, raising a trembling finger at Shen Qing and stamring, "You... you..."

Bang!

Shen Qing flicked his finger, sending a burst of blazing True Qi that struck Zhou Dazhi's throat, causing his neck to explode like a blooming rose.

The hand pointing at him fell lifelessly.

"Ah, murder! The dispatcher committed murder!"

The Zhou Family mbers descended into chaos.

Soone shouted, "You killed a Zhou Family mber in front of so many people for no reason, do you think our Zhou Family in Jun City will let you off?"

"Then let them co." Shen Qing quickly replied, "Do you think, if I were to wipe you all out, would the Zhou Family in Jun City stand up for you dead ones? If you're secretly colluding with demons, endangering the Great Zhou, do you think the Zhou Family in Jun City would risk getting involved?"

Shen Qing held up his blade, chest high, and said, "Rest assured, I've got experience with wiping out entire families."

The Zhou Family mbers were dumbstruck!

Shen Qing turned his head to the throng of onlookers and said, "Ladies and gentlen, I am Shen Qing of the Guardian Martial Departnt, here to investigate the matter of the Wolf Demon in Changqiao Town. Upon investigation, the Changqiao Zhou Family secretly bred demons using the residents of the town in pursuit of longevity. According to the laws of the Great Zhou, such heinous acts warrant the extermination of three clans."

Upon hearing this, the crowd gasped.

"What?! The Wolf Demon was brought here by the Zhou Family, and they even kept it in the town?!"

The Zhou Family mbers turned pale as paper, "Nonsense! This is just an excuse for murder!"

Shen Qing, unfazed, said, "If the crowd doesn't believe , I invite you to take a look at a small house on the mountain over there, and you'll naturally see the truth. Otherwise, where do you think this Wolf Demon ca from?"

Shen Qing's voice suddenly rose several pitches, "Do any of you Zhou Family mbers have the eyes for justice? Do the laws even exist in your eyes?"

The Zhou Family wanted to argue further, but suddenly a farr in the crowd shouted, "Exactly them. Old Third Liang's family returned, they were all forcibly taken by your Zhou Family to feed the demons, they told !"

The Zhou Family knew deep down if they had colluded with demons.

With all the evidence presented, they couldn't utter a word.

Shen Qing glanced at the trembling Zhou Family mbers, then looked at the angry yet hesitant townspeople of Changqiao.

He knew he only needed to nudge a bit more.

From his experience, as long as the current interests of these bystanders weren't hard,

Whoever wins, they will support!

With this in mind, Shen Qing raised the knife and shouted, "I am Shen Qing, ordered to eliminate demons! Today, with the Zhou Family in Changqiao colluding with demons, the entire family should be killed! Kill!"

Shen Qing's voice was strong, like a giant wave of the deep sea, filling the entire space.

"Ah!"

Screams echoed endlessly.

Faced with Shen Qing, who had now risen to the Qi Sea Realm, those from a small town, even if trained in martial arts, couldn't compare to him.

The scene turned into a one-sided slaughter.

After Shen Qing killed the three Zhou Family young masters and a group of martial masters, the situation beca clear.

The onlookers began to stir, finally rushing towards the Zhou Family Mansion, claiming justice, as if a dam had burst.

Watching this, Shen Qing felt a sense of déjà vu.

After everyone had rushed into the estate, Shen Qing lagged a step behind, walking in leisurely.

Upon entering the Zhou Family estate, it had beco chaotic, with its forr grandeur gone.

He consciously searched for Zhou Family mbers in the courtyard, intending to give them a proper ending.

When Shen Qing reached a room, he unexpectedly found a delicate-skinned woman kneeling and begging for rcy upon seeing him.

Seeing the woman's submissive deanor aroused Shen Qing's suspicion.

He thought she might intentionally be found to protect her child, so to be safe, he searched the room thoroughly.

As expected, he found a bewildered boy in a cabinet.

Filled with compassion and unable to bear such scenes of separation, Shen Qing reunited them.

After bustling for over half a Shi Chen, and taking so silver notes and taels, ensuring no hidden threats remained, Shen Qing skinned two Wolf Demons and mounted his horse.

He had already muddled the matter of Zhou Baoyin; barring unforeseen incidents, none would speak for these dead ones.

In fact, from what he knew, their dispatch office often caused others to et ruin, only this ti, he went a bit further.

Shen Qing glanced back at the flaming estate indifferently.

He would leave the rest to his colleagues in the Military Departnt, they understood the rules.

"Giddy up!"

Shen Qing spurred his horse, riding out of Changqiao Town, heading ho.

Not far from town, he saw a frail little girl in tattered clothes joyfully running towards him, holding a chipped porcelain bowl and looking bright, "Officer, have so tea."

Shen Qing reined in his horse and asked, "You waited for ?"

"Yes, my parents said you're our family's savior, sent to see you off." The girl dug out two warm eggs from her pocket, "My mom cooked these, officer, take them for the road."

Looking at the innocent, pure girl, Shen Qing, after a brief silence, suddenly laughed heartily, taking the bowl and drinking it all, "Great tea!"

At this mont, he felt a sense of clarity and joy.

Returning the bowl to the girl, Shen Qing pocketed the eggs and galloped off.

"Thank your parents for , giddy up!"

The little girl unexpectedly found two gold beans in her bowl, shining under the sunset.

Looking up hurriedly, watching Shen Qing's departing figure, she murmured, "This officer is really nice."
