All Heavens: At the beginning, I was forced to marry into the family by the Bodhisattva of Great Joy
Chapter 23 Darkening is twice as powerful
When Yu Qiushuang heard Cao Hansheng's question and thought about what Cao Hansheng had said before, only one thought remained in her mind: why was she so unlucky? A hint of madness appeared in her eyes, and her voice cracked.
"Die, I want them all to die."
"As you wished, I was right. You are talented," Cao Hansheng said before he could finish speaking. He then struck Yun Jiao with a palm. The palm strike seemed ordinary, but it should not be underestimated.
Because the palm strike contained a Soul-Snatching Needle, the very same needle that Cao Hansheng had just stored in his spatial dimension, and its speed was now even faster than the speed at which the launcher had fired.
Yun Jiao had no time to react and was shot directly between the eyebrows. The needle then pierced through the back of her head and stuck to the wall with a "thud." She collapsed to the ground like a noodle. However, Yu Qiushuang's neck was also scratched with a red mark, indicating that her hand was quite strong.
"Look at her, your best friend is more resolute than you. She really wants to drag you down with her," Cao Hansheng said, then pointed at Yu Mulan. "And him? Do I need to take action?"
Yu Qiushuang's expression changed for a while, and finally her face became somewhat gloomy and scary. Her eyes were filled with madness and ferocity, and it was clear at a glance that she had turned into a villain.
She first looked at Yun Jiao, who was dead on the spot, then at Yu Mulan, who was slumped on the ground, and then touched her neck with her palm, as if she felt some pain.
"I'll handle him myself, but can you tell me who you are?"
Looking at the somewhat ruthless and deranged Yu Qiushuang, Cao Hansheng realized that after being betrayed repeatedly by those around her, the girl had already mentally killed the previous Yu Qiushuang.
"I only just remembered who I am now, but there's no point in hiding it. Back when I was traveling the martial world, I was honored by the kindness of my fellow martial artists, who gave me the nickname 'Bloody Hand Sword'."
Upon hearing the words "Blood Hand Sword," Yu Qiushuang didn't react much, but Yu Mulan's expression was as if he had seen a ghost. He strained to look up, staring at Cao Hansheng with a look of terror in his eyes.
"You, you, you are Bloodhand Sword Nameless?"
"Oh, I didn't expect Lord Yu to know me. My mere reputation is nothing to worry about. However, since you know my name, when the Second Miss kills you later, I will persuade her to give you a quick death."
Although Yu Qiushuang was somewhat confused, she was not stupid. Seeing Yu Mulan trembling with fear, she guessed that Cao Hansheng was no ordinary person.
"Qiu Shuang, you can't kill me. Since the Blood Hand Sword Wumingzi entered the martial world, he has destroyed dozens of sects and never left a survivor. Now he must be plotting to seize our Jade City's foundation. You can't fall for his tricks."
"Qiushuang, I'm your brother-in-law! This is all a misunderstanding. It was that bitch Yunjiao who seduced me. Qiushuang, please forgive me, I beg you."
Cao Hansheng watched as Yu Mulan first splashed dirty water on him, and then incoherently begged Yu Qiushuang for forgiveness. He stood still and looked at Yu Qiushuang standing to the side.
Yu Qiushuang gave a bitter laugh, picked up the Soul-Snatching Needles from the ground, and fired several needles at Yu Mulan's head. Then she smashed the launcher into Yu Mulan's face, and Yu Mulan died instantly.
"You dare to call yourself my brother-in-law? I think it's you who's plotting to seize my Yucheng empire."
Seeing this, Cao Hansheng couldn't help but think to himself, "She's definitely ten times stronger when she turns evil. When a woman gets ruthless, you really can't judge her by common sense." Before he could speak, Yu Qiushuang turned to look at him.
"Nameless, what exactly do you want from me? My family lied to me, my best friend betrayed me, my fiancé and my sister had an affair. I can't believe that an outsider like you would be kind enough to help me."
"I understand how you feel. If I were in your shoes, I wouldn't trust anyone either. There's no such thing as a free lunch, so I won't help you for nothing. There are a few things I need you to do."
"What's wrong?"
Hearing her question, Cao Hansheng shook his head. "No matter what it is, you can't help me in your current state unless you can become the Lord of Jade City."
The position of city lord?
This person wanted to kill her own sister, Yu Hongzhu. Even though she was furious, Yu Hongzhu was still her own sister from the same mother. Various thoughts rushed through her mind, and her face turned pale and red in turns.
"What?
Do you really think Yu Hongzhu treats you like a younger sister? If she cared about you even a little bit, she wouldn't be entangled with your fiancé.
Besides, you've already killed Yu Mulan. Even if he's a kept man, he's still your sister's husband. And do you think Yu Hongzhu would let her go now?
Yu Qiushuang remained silent, her expression shifting between light and shadow, suggesting she was weighing various options in her mind. Cao Hansheng, seeing this, also kept quiet and waited for quite a while.
"Yu Hongzhu has always been the one in charge of Jade City. How can I be the ruler of Jade City if I don't have any trusted confidants?"
"It's good that you can ask this question. It proves that you have made a decision. It doesn't matter if you don't have any confidants now. As long as you sit in the position of city lord, you can have as many confidants as you want."
"Yu Hongzhu is still my own sister, and I don't want her to die by my hand."
"I can help with that, but now is not the time to kill her. A friend of mine might ask her some questions, so she can't die yet."
"That's not what I meant. I meant I wanted her to live."
"Then do as you please. I don't want to get involved in your Yucheng's family affairs. Is there anything else?"
"there is none left."
"Then let's go, it's time to meet your sister, Yu Hongzhu."
The next morning, Yu Qiushuang summoned all her subordinates with the city lord's decree and read aloud Yu Hongzhu's "handwritten letter," which essentially stated that she was tired of this life and would hand over the position of city lord of Yu City to Yu Qiushuang from that day forward.
Yu Hongzhu was certainly not so easy to talk to, but in front of Cao Hansheng, she had no room to resist. No one believed such an abrupt order.
Especially those close associates of Yu Hongzhu, who clamored that this was a chaotic fate and that Yu Hongzhu must have met with misfortune. Their guess was quite correct. Cao Hansheng didn't waste any words and directly killed those who jumped out on the spot.
"Gentlemen, Jade City belongs to the Yu family. Now, the Second Miss has been appointed to this critical mission. Anyone who dares to disobey her orders will suffer the same fate. With the Second Miss as the city lord, is there anyone who objects?"
The remaining people were stunned by Cao Hansheng's swift and decisive killing without a word. After exchanging glances, they all knelt on the ground and looked at Yu Qiushuang.
"We pay homage to the city lord."
"Rise, all of you. From this day forward, I, Yu Qiushuang, am the Lord of Yucheng. I hope you will all remain loyal to Yucheng as always. I will not treat you unfairly."
"We will obey the city lord's orders."
The city lord's ascension to the throne is certainly not just talk; there are many things and people to deal with internally, and external relationships need to be reorganized. However, Yu Qiushuang doesn't seem to be in a hurry.
At this moment, she looked at Cao Hansheng intently. Although she still didn't quite believe him, his every move made her feel very at ease, like a great mountain.
"Mr. Wu, now that I've assumed the position of city lord, what exactly do you want me to do?"
