Chapter 652: Chapter 636: Please Call Me Cheng Yaojin
Bullying the few with the many?
Isn’t that just what these playboys do best, what’s so surprising about that? And what, every one of them is addicted to playing the hero in other people’s business?
Young Master Zhou, having his fun interrupted, was very unhappy, and the consequence of his unhappiness was that he got beaten up!
He was charged with having a foul and cheap mouth, and for trying to treat Qin Liuxi like a plaything, so, his whole gang got beaten up too.
The most shameless part was that this pretty boy deliberately aimed for their acupoints, striking without leaving visible marks but causing them excruciating pain.
How vicious!
But Young Master Zhou didn’t dare resist, because the other party was standing right on the spine of his back. If she exerted a bit more force, he’d be crippled.
Damn it, can’t kill this pretty face!
“Hero, we won’t dare anymore, we’re leaving now.” The lackeys lined up, kneeling in the corner with pale faces, pleading to Qin Liuxi for mercy.
Just you wait and see, we’ll run now, but later we’ll kill this refugee!
Qin Liuxi, gnawing on a chicken leg, shook his head: “No, after I leave, you’ll still retaliate, like killing this guy here.”
The crowd: “…”
When did they unwittingly voice their inner thoughts aloud?
“But never mind, I’ll show you something good.” As Qin Liuxi finished the chicken leg, he threw the bone on the ground and then rummaged through his large bag before taking out a bottle. He poured the liquid in the bottle onto the bone.
Sizzling sounds ensued.
The crowd watched in horror as the bone was dissolved, leaving no residue.
Is this, could this be the legendary Corpse Dissolving Water?
What kind of person is this?
“See that?” Qin Liuxi looked at the crowd and said, “Do you think I should silence you? I’m really afraid you’ll cause trouble later, to avoid that, I might as well just finish this now, and dispose of you all!”
The crowd felt like crying.
What have they done to be intimidated like this, they’re still just kids!
“My, my Uncle is the County Magistrate of Wu City, and he will not let you off if you dare do this!” Young Master Zhou declared, trying to sound fierce yet feeling feeble inside.
“That’s exactly why I need to destroy the evidence completely, so clean that there’s no trace left, and who would know it was me?” Qin Liuxi scoffed coldly.
Young Master Zhou shivered.
“We swear, we will never cause trouble again.” The people raised their hands: “Otherwise let Five Thunders Bombardment strike us down, may a thunderbolt from the heavens strike us dead, good sir, please let us go!”
“That won’t do, you dare not trouble me, but what about them?” Qin Liuxi pointed at Qin Mingyan and the others: “I can’t bring them trouble, that would be a sin, you can’t put me in such a difficult position!”
Ancestors, what exactly do you want?
“We won’t bother anyone, we were not even in the same league as them, we just got carried away for a moment and messed with him, from now on we’ll stay away from them, alright? We swear!”
Qin Liuxi begrudgingly said: “Fine then, but I’m afraid you’ll trick me, hey you, keep an eye on them for me, anyone who dares to take revenge, kill ’em!”
The crowd followed her gaze. Who is she talking to?
Qin Liuxi grinned: “A ghost brother, if anyone disobeys, I’ll have him accompany you all for some fun!”
Are you kidding me!?
“Go, pull his hair up.” Qin Liuxi cast a spell, and one person’s hair was lifted.
The crowd: “!”
Aaah, there’s a ghost, oh mama, I want to go home!
After being intimidated by Qin Liuxi, the crowd left some compensation money and fled in disarray without daring to look back at Qin Mingyan ever again.
Qin Liuxi handed some broken silver to the little girl, sighed, and passed her a peace charm: “Take your brother to the Xuan Tower in the city, someone will arrange for you to go to the Charitable Hall.”
The little girl blankly clutched it in her hand, kowtowed to her again, and then to Qin Mingyan, before pulling her bewildered brother away.
It was only then that Qin Liuxi turned around; Qin Mingyan was frowning at her. In his eyes was a measure of wariness, and a hint of confusion. But most inexplicably, as he looked at her face, he suddenly felt an unjust sense of frustration.
Damned ghost.
Qin Mingyan took a deep breath and said, “Who are you?”
“I go by the surname Cheng.”
Oh.
“Name, Yaojin.”
Qin Mingyan was taken aback, and after a moment, felt he had been fooled, glaring at her, but she had saved him.
“Thank you for saving me.”
“Don’t try to flatter yourself, it was nothing more than a cry for help when I saw injustice!” Qin Liuxi snorted: “But you, you really have some backbone, eh? Beaten up like this, almost violated, yet you refused to submit.”
Qin Mingyan angrily retorted, “A gentleman can be killed but cannot be humiliated. Such a disgrace below the belt is absolutely intolerable.”
“Disgrace below the belt is intolerable, but you can tolerate the disgrace of getting your rear end blossomed?”
This person is so vulgar!
Qin Mingyan’s face turned scarlet with frustration: “Had they truly intended such acts, I would rather kill myself than let them have their way.”
Qin Liuxi’s expression turned stern: “Would you dare to say such words before your mother’s face?”
Upon hearing this, Qin Mingyan’s complexion changed drastically, stammering with his lips, he hung his head low.
“Han Xin too suffered the disgrace beneath the crotch in his youth, yet it did not prevent him from becoming a distinguished figure, renowned for all eternity. And here you are, a child no bigger than a fart, alone and vulnerable, and you still insist on your so-called integrity? Have you water in your brain?”
Qin Mingyan, eyes reddened with anger, glared at her. By what right did this person insult him?
“Talking about choosing death over dishonor, how’s that? Is your life solely your own, to be ended on a mere whim? Even ants strive for survival, you’ve been well-educated and well-read, and you still dare speak of death? Before dying, think whether you’re worthy, have you repaid your life to your mother?”
Qin Mingyan pursed his lips, his fists clenched tight, and said: “What about you then? Would you just meekly crawl between someone’s crotch?”
“There is no ‘if’, I can fight!” Qin Liuxi glared at him: “So crawling between crotches is out of the question, never in this lifetime!”
At most, she’d kick them there!
Qin Mingyan was left speechless.
“All alone and without any fighting skills, just savor being alive. Your life isn’t just your own; you must save it to meet those who’ve always been waiting for you!”
Qin Mingyan began to feel a peculiar sense of anticipation again and glanced at her, about to say something.
“So here I have a secret manual you can’t pass up. Would you care to learn?” Qin Liuxi mysteriously produced a book and handed it over to him: “Just one piece of Silver, and once you’ve mastered these moves, you won’t be the one passively taking hits anymore.”
One piece of Silver?
Might as well just rob him!
Qin Mingyan scoffed coldly: “Though I am a refugee, I’ve read quite a bit, don’t assume you can deceive me!”
“I advise you to think it over. You saw my skills earlier, didn’t you? Me against five, without any trouble. It was all thanks to this manual. If we weren’t fated, would I offer it to you? You’re ungrateful!”
Qin Mingyan was somewhat tempted.
“You’re already a refugee. If you don’t learn some self-preserving skills, I’m afraid you won’t live to see your mother.”
“You keep mentioning my mother. Could it be she sent you here?” Qin Mingyan asked tentatively, his eyes filled with hope.
Qin Liuxi gave him a look peculiar to seeing an idiot and said: “You really do have water in your brain, turned to steam that’s fogged up your mind, leaving you to float in dreams!”
Qin Mingyan: “!”
Where did this person come from, and how infuriating she is!
