Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 104 Threat
There is no risk for Jiang Qing here.

After the monks from Pingrong County looted all the important places such as the treasure house and the Sutra Library of the Caishi Wang family, and were satisfied with the looting, they gathered together again and annihilated all the resistance of the Caishi Wang family with a crushing force.

This time, Jiang Qing followed Kang Dabao's instructions and concealed his abilities in the formation, so he did not make any eye-catching performance, but he still put away four or five storage bags.

Only one of them was obtained from a cultivator from the Wang family, and the others were obtained from a famous independent cultivator recruited by the Pingrong County Government.

This fellow was clearly desperate to kill, and was taking advantage of Jiang Qing's youthfulness to try to snatch the storage bag of this cultivator from the Wang family.

Unexpectedly, he ran into a tough guy. Jiang Qing looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he swung his sword and killed him.

No wonder the head of the Kang sect taught Jiang Qing since he was young: "It's okay for a cultivator to have ability, but if he can't even recognize people, then he deserves to die."

This kind of absurd drama of robbing companions, which seemed to have happened to Jiang Qing, was not an isolated case in the battle organized by Pingrong County to attack the Wang family in Caishi.

The fighting and bloodshed that took place in the treasure pavilion and the scripture building by the Pingrong County side was much more brutal than when they broke the Wang family's formation.

Ultimately, this was caused by the fact that the Pingrong County Government itself lacked foundation and was unable to suppress the various monks who were forcibly conscripted.

If the Liangyi Sect was the mastermind of this battle, how many of these recruited monks would dare to be rebellious? Even if they were asked to carry the Heavenly Thunder Child to attack the formation, no one would dare to say no.

After wiping out the Wang family, Xie Fu proudly led the monks to camp here for another half a day.

Even with Jiang Qing's proud personality, he still admired this county lord who was still at the second level of Qi training.

Not everyone can remain so passionate about their job even when their colleagues are being beheaded one after another.

It seemed that Mr. Xie no longer took his own life or anyone else's life seriously. He was just waiting for the day when the assassin would come so that he could be loyal to the emperor and serve his country with a pure heart.

Half a day later, Jiang Qing became anxious as he had not waited for Kang Dabao and his three companions to return.

This time, the Wang family of Cai Shi invited several good players from the Ge family of Fengzhou, and even he had a hard time fighting against them.

Now, one or two of these experts have escaped from the encirclement of the Pingrong County Government and are missing. If they are encountered by the senior brothers, they might be in danger.

Kang Dabao and his other three did not make Jiang Qing worry for too long. After another half day, the four of them came back with injuries of varying degrees.

The injuries of the other three were not serious, but Ye Pinglin was still in danger.

When Kang Dabao heard that the Pingrong County Court had recruited several not-so-great alchemists to help, he asked Jiang Qing and Ji Wuwu to take Ye Pinglin to ask them one by one.

These alchemists all said that they had no good solutions, but their statements were consistent, saying only that a second-level healing elixir might be able to cure it.

"If there was a second-level healing elixir, I wouldn't have to ask them." Kang Dabao got angry after hearing this and the wound on his back split open.

There was still some sword energy from Ge Yangfeng's ancient sword on his back. Although the cultivator had an extremely fast recovery ability, the flesh and blood on the wound had just grown together and had not yet formed a scab before it was torn apart again by the sword energy.

If you want to cure this kind of injury as soon as possible, it is not enough to take some ordinary blood-producing pills. You have to find an alchemist to write a special prescription for it, and then you can recuperate with peace of mind.

The dust-repelling magic circle on Kang Dabao's newly changed robes had not been destroyed yet, so they were not stained with blood. The bright red blood on his back flowed down the robes and formed a pool under the chair.

Jiang Qing felt bad for Kang Dabao, so he stepped forward to bandage his wound. At this time, Yuan Jin suggested, "Young Master Ye is seriously injured. We should go back early. It has been said that Chen Yu is the best alchemist in Pingrong County. We should spend more spirit stones to beg him. Maybe we can save Young Master Ye's life."

Yuan Jin was saved by Ye Pinglin this time. He felt very uncomfortable seeing the young head of the family being so seriously injured.

"Let's go. I heard someone say earlier that Xie Fu is going to hold a three-day commendation ceremony. I can't wait any longer. I'll go and tell him that my family has suffered too much loss this time and I need to go back to recuperate." Feeling that Jiang Qing and himself had bandaged their wounds, Kang Dabao made up his mind after listening to Yuan Jin's words.

When Kang Dabao anxiously found Xie Fu, he actually looked relaxed at this moment. Surrounded by several prostitutes from Yuanyang Hall, they were sitting in the tidy Wang's attic, where they were gathered to admire a portrait of a beauty. They looked really happy.

"Thank you, Your Excellency." Kang Dabao was furious, but he bowed his hands in greeting.

"Master Kang, are you here to apologize?" Upon hearing this, Xie Fu frowned, put away the scroll, raised his eyebrows, and asked in a cold voice.

"The county magistrate wants to punish my family for not guarding strictly and letting the remnants of the Wang family escape?" Kang Dabao was stunned for a moment, then asked in a gentle voice. "Humph, you know it clearly!" Xie Fu took out a merit record from his storage bag, unfolded it and said softly: "Your family Jiang Qing killed a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training in the battle formation, and was awarded a minor merit; Kang Dabao, Yuan Jin, Ji Wuwu, and Ye Pinglin allowed the remnants of the Wang family to escape, which is a dereliction of duty and a serious offense. According to military regulations, they should be punished with tattooing and shaving their heads."

"I thought Mr. Xie was so arrogant, but it turns out he was just tattooed and shaved! I thought he was going to chop off your head!"

Kang Dabao sneered and waved away the beauties around Xie Fu, causing a burst of exclamations.

Then he grabbed Xie Fu by the collar, grabbed him like a chicken, brought him in front of him, and forced him to swallow the spit in his face.

"Tell me, Nai Gong dared to fight against the Ge family's foundation-building seeds, and he still came back alive," Kang Dabao said here, looking at Xie Fu and paused, "How did you get the courage, you idiot, to speak to Nai Gong like that."

At this time, Xie Fu was lifted up by Kang Dabao, with his feet in the air. With his shallow cultivation level, he was naturally unable to break free.

He was shocked and angry, but also a little surprised.

In Xie Fu's impression, this Master Kang has always been a soft-hearted person.

Even when the Earl came to Yunjiao Prefecture and the Pingrong County Government was in such a dilapidated state, and he, the head of the county, was not even as well off as a respectable casual cultivator, Sect Leader Kang was always polite when he saw him.

County Master Xie felt that he was a person who could understand people's hearts, so after he gained power, based on Sect Leader Kang's previous kind behavior, he thought that Sect Leader Kang must be an easy bully; that was why he always spoke in a pretentious manner and was rude to Sect Leader Kang; that was why he dared to openly ask for Jiang Qing and separated the five members of the Chongming Sect for no reason.

There may not be any deep meaning behind his doing this, he just thinks that making others uncomfortable will make him happier.

This is not a capable or cruel official, this is a truly mediocre and corrupt official.

So even though the iron-headed man had already sent someone to explain, Chong Mingzong's help in stopping Ge Yangfeng this time could be considered a great achievement.

But after thinking about it, Xie Fu still had a crooked idea. He wanted to rely on the Wang family to escape this matter to make things difficult for the fat leader. Chongming Sect also opened a market. Although it was said that it was not very prosperous, there was still a lot of money to be made.

Relying on the cover of the provincial court, County Master Xie has done many things to oppress the good. Doing bad things too much will make one addicted. Just like the blind cultivator who robbed Jiang Qing, he ran into a tough guy.

Xie Fu's feet were lifted off the ground, and he felt that his kicking was a little funny, so he suppressed his fear and shouted fiercely: "Kang Dabao, you kidnapped the official of the Immortal Dynasty, are you going to rebel?!"

The commotion was quite big, attracting several other assistant officials in Pingrong County to come and see. Seeing that Xie Fu was at a disadvantage, they wanted to take sides.

Jiang Qing also walked in from outside. When his flying sword flashed, the assistant officials sat down in their seats again obediently.

We all risk our lives to be appointed to this short-lived position, so we should live one day at a time. There is no need to take the risk of being hit by a flying sword for a bastard like you, Xie Fu.

Zhai Le watched for a while and roughly understood the whole story. He also felt that he had some friendship with both parties, so he spoke to smooth things over, "The county lord just spoke out of turn. Sect Leader Kang, please give me some face and let him go for now. After all, he is an official of the Immortal Dynasty. It would be disgraceful if the news got out."

Xie Fu heard someone pleading for him, so he became a little tougher: "Mr. Kang, if you have the guts, then don't let me go. I'll see if the iron guard next door will bring people to arrest you."

Kang Dabao smiled when he heard what Xie Fu said. He had been a frivolous traveling merchant for the first half of his life and had seen all kinds of people. Therefore, he knew too well the faces of people like Xie Fu who bullied the good and feared the evil.

When dealing with this kind of person, if you dare to retreat one inch, he will advance ten feet; but if you are extremely vicious, he will be so scared that he will stick his butt towards you.

"Thank you, County Master. Don't think that you are so great just because you put on this green robe and became a county master," Kang Dabao laughed sinisterly. "My Zhang Zushi has followed Shen Duguan Pingman for many years. He has countless comrades and old friends in the army and the court. My family has been the hawks and dogs of the Xian Dynasty for many years. Compared with my family, you, a county master from a poor family, are nothing?!"

Kang Dabao spoke up to this point in a fierce tone. He lifted Xie Fu above his head with one hand and slammed him down. The latter quickly activated his spiritual power shield, but with his limited skills, how could he withstand the hateful blow from Sect Leader Kang?

The spiritual shield shattered instantly, and Xie Fu felt severe pain all over his body. The beautiful marble floor under his feet also cracked into large pieces, turning into debris.

At this time, he could only hear Kang Dabao's voice again, which frightened him so much that he shivered and yellow fluid oozed out from between his buttocks. His usual cruel and careless behavior, not taking his life seriously, was completely gone. He just stuck his butt out and begged for mercy, shaking like a sieve.

"Thank you, County Master. Believe it or not. Even if I kill you here, as long as I do things cleanly and then ask the state court to let me be the county master, the state court will be so happy that it can't wait to see what happens."
