Stepping onto the path to immortality, it all begins with buying the daughter of a disgraced officia

As soon as the man finished speaking, Su Mu suddenly moved, his hand like a giant clamp, grabbing the man's neck tightly!

"You deserve to die for touching my woman!"

"No--"

The thug's pupils constricted sharply, his eyes filled with despair.

The person in front of him didn't feel like a man in his sixties at all; he seemed more like the Grim Reaper!

Before he could utter his last words, Su Mu had already snapped his neck and tossed it towards another person like trash!

It's not over yet!

The next instant, Su Mu's movements suddenly changed, and he charged back towards the two people who were controlling Ye Qingyan. His speed was so fast that before the others could react, Su Mu appeared in front of them like a ghost!

"not good!"

"..."

By the time they came to their senses, it was too late. Su Mu's fist, accompanied by the sound of air being cut, had already struck!

bang bang bang-

In the blink of an eye!

Five or six thugs fell to the ground with a thud, all killed instantly, without even a chance to resist!

"How...how is this possible?!"

Su Mu moved too fast. The tall, thin man known as Tiger swallowed hard, his face turned pale with fright, his legs went weak, and he couldn't even walk.

thump!

Before Su Mu could even turn around, he immediately knelt on the ground, his voice trembling as he pleaded, "M-My lord, spare my life! I was momentarily bewitched, I beg you, my lord..."

Su Mu approached, his eyes indifferent, looking down at him. Before he could finish speaking, Su Mu suddenly stomped down with his foot!

click-

A crisp cracking sound rang out, followed by a piercing scream!

"ah--"

The tall, thin man, nicknamed Tiger, had a ferocious expression, his neck veins bulging and his face turning ashen from the pain.

Looking at his right leg, it was completely shattered, with white bones exposed and blood flowing endlessly!

He was terrified! Utterly terrified!

He regretted coming here, and regretted attacking Ye Qingyan and the other person. Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in this world!

"My lord... I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please spare my life!"

Right now, all he can do is plead desperately for a chance to survive, but who would have thought that he would be met with another kick!

"ah--"

Tiger fainted, but was jolted awake by the pain, because Su Mu did not let him off the hook and repeatedly crushed his severed limbs with his foot!

"Wrong?"

Su Mu said coldly, "No, you're just afraid because you know you're going to die!"

"My lord! I swear!"

"Heh, if oaths were effective, what would be the point of fists?"

"..."

He finished speaking.

Su Mu struck again, crippling his limbs before delivering a final kick to his groin, showing no mercy whatsoever!

"Only the dead don't make mistakes!"

"ah--"

Tiger let out a piercing howl, the pain already exceeding his physical limits. "Kill me, please kill me!"

"Want to die? No, I'll slice your flesh off piece by piece..."

"You devil! You're a devil—"

Before Su Mu could even make a move, Tiger Lord was so frightened that he died of fright.

"..."

Su Mu was amused; he really couldn't believe that the other party would die in such a way.

He turned around, looked at the frightened Ye Qingyan and Shen Yanran, walked over, and said softly, "Are you two ladies alright?"

Shen Yanran shook her head and quickly looked at Ye Qingyan, "Husband, I'm fine, but Sister Qingyan was kicked by that person. You should go and check on her!"

Upon hearing this...

Su Mu immediately went to Ye Qingyan's side. Although his face was frighteningly pale, he still managed to force a smile and said, "Don't worry, husband, I'm fine..."

No matter how much she tried to be strong, her body couldn't lie. As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Qingyan fainted.

If Su Mu hadn't caught him, he probably would have fallen to the ground.

Looking at Ye Qingyan, who was as soft as jade in his arms, Su Mu's eyes were filled with extremely complicated emotions, and he felt very sorry for her.

"You, who are clearly frail, insist on putting on a tough act."

"I told you long ago, now that you've married me, from this day forward, I will protect you..."

He didn't know if Ye Qingyan heard him or not, but these words were the truth from his heart, except for one lie!

Having been widowed twice, Ye Qingyan was his first woman and his first wife, and she already held an indelible place in his heart!

Unbeknownst to Su Mu, as he finished speaking and carried Ye Qingyan back into the house, a single, glistening tear slid down her cheek...

About fifteen minutes later, Su Mu finished treating Ye Qingyan's injuries. Her complexion finally returned to normal. Fortunately, no vital organs were injured. After a day of rest, she will be able to get out of bed normally.

"Have I forgotten something?"

Without realizing it, Su Mu felt that something was missing, but he couldn't remember what it was for the time being.

at the same time.

outside the house.

Light snow began to fall.

A small snowball in the corner suddenly moved.

Su Yang woke up from his coma, shook off the snow on his body, felt a little dizzy, and stumbled into the house.

"Aww—"

When it couldn't open the door, it barked.

Su Mu slapped his forehead and hurriedly opened the door, exclaiming, "I almost forgot about you, you little brat!"

"..."

Su Yang was speechless; thankfully, it couldn't speak.

He held it tightly inside the house and immediately checked on Su Yang's condition, only to find that he was completely unharmed, which surprised him greatly.

"As expected of a Crimson Sun Tiger cub, its skin is thick and its flesh is tough."

Immediately, he took out a pile of dried meat and put it in Su Yang's food bowl, patted its little head, and said, "It's okay, don't blame yourself. You're still too young. When you grow up, you'll be able to protect your mother..."

"Aww—"

Su Yang nodded, turning his anger into a hunger, and took a big bite of the jerky!

"Yanran, take good care of them. I need to go to the city. As for your elder brother... I will find a place to give him a proper burial." Su Mu looked at Shen Yanran, who was guarding the bedside, and instructed her.

Shen Yanran nodded slightly and said softly, "Husband, please be careful on your journey."

After this incident, her opinion of Su Mu changed somewhat; at least the man in front of her was capable of protecting them!

These days, having clothes to wear, food to eat, and not freezing to death is already considered lucky for people like them!

The turmoil in Anbei Prefecture caused countless people to starve to death, and countless children of wealthy families to become refugees. All that was known was that corpses littered the fields and the people were living in misery!

...

outside the house.

After searching the group of people for their belongings, Su Mu discovered that each of them had an iron plaque with the character "Tiger" engraved on it.

Of course, he was too lazy to think about it in detail. Whoever offended him, he would be executed!

He weighed the bulging silver bag in his hand; it was about a hundred taels, which was quite a good haul.

After putting the bodies into storage bags, Su Mu led A Mao towards the back mountain. It took half an hour to deal with the bodies and bury Shen Qiu's body. Only then did he brave the wind and snow to enter the city alone.

at this time.

The blacksmith's shop on the west side of the village.

As Shi Lei was busy forging iron, a woman in red appeared behind him, bowed, and reported, "Master, Su Mu killed several thugs from the Fierce Tiger Hall and went into the city alone."

Upon hearing this...

Shi Lei remained unmoved until he finished typing a set of keys. Then, he slowly raised his eyes, a glint of shrewdness flashing in them, and calmly spoke:

"Have the people at the inn keep an eye on him, and send someone to inform the Fierce Tiger Hall of this matter. I want to see just how many secrets you have on your person..."
