From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

"Chen Shi! If you dare kill me, Third Master won't forgive you!"

Chen Shi kicked her to the ground, and A Qing sat on the ground, backing away while shouting threats.

With his arm severed and his life force depleted, he was now so vulnerable that even an ordinary person could kill him, let alone Chen Shi.

Chen Shi remained silent, approaching A Qing step by step, his face ashen.

"Chen Shi! Brother Chen! Master Chen! Please, don't kill me! Just spare my life, I'll agree to any condition..."

Seeing that threats were ineffective, Aqing began to beg for mercy again.

But before he could speak, Chen Shi leaned down and his hand was already gripping his throat.

With Chen Shi's strength, A Qing was instantly unable to breathe. Her face gradually turned purplish-red, and she could no longer speak. She could only look at Chen Shi with a terrified and pleading gaze.

After all, it was a living, breathing person. In an instant, Chen Shi couldn't help but soften his heart, and the force in his hand loosened.

Feeling that the grip wasn't so tight anymore, a glimmer of hope welled up in Aqing's eyes.

Click!

But the next moment, Chen Shi suddenly exerted force with his wrist and snapped A Qing's neck.

"Feel sorry."

Releasing his grip, leaving Aqing's body limp on the ground, Chen Shi said calmly.

Cui Nong once told him that in this world, not only tigers eat people, but people also eat people, and they are even more ferocious. If he doesn't kill A Qing, A Qing will kill him sooner or later!

After killing Aqing, Chen Shi immediately turned back.

The members of the Flying Eagle Gang and the Wolf Poison Gang were still in the same place, but Zhe Liu and Jia Shun were nowhere to be seen.

Where are they?

"I'm gone."

A crowd gathered around him, and he shrugged and said something.

After Chen Shi left, Jia Shun and Zhe Liu exchanged more than ten moves before voluntarily stopping.

It was too late to chase after Chen Shi at this point, and besides, he couldn't defeat Zhe Liu in a short time; continuing to fight would only be a waste of time.

After Jia Shun left, Zhe Liu also left.

"Walk."

With Jia Shun gone, Chen Shi had no more worries. He gave an order and led his men towards Shili Slope.

After walking for a while, they encountered seven or eight people who were helping the injured Du Yueming and Zhang Xiaotian.

Chen Shi led thirty skilled men to intercept and kill A Qing, and also arranged for several others to rescue Du Yueming and Zhang Xiaotian.

Although Du Yueming and Zhang Xiaotian were also offered rewards, the mere few dozen taels of silver were insignificant compared to the three thousand taels of gold.

Taking advantage of the fight between the镖人 and 黄金贵, they easily rescued them.

"Big brother!"

Upon seeing Chen Shi, Du Yueming and Zhang Xiaotian were overwhelmed with emotion and, despite their injuries, were about to bow in gratitude.

After being captured by Aqing, the two were devastated, thinking they were doomed to die that night.

To everyone's surprise, even knowing it was a trap, Chen Shi still risked his life to save them.

Even more unexpectedly, Chen Shi actually managed to rescue them under these circumstances.

"I'm glad you're all alright, no need for thanks."

Chen Shi stepped forward and helped the two men up.

"Big brother!"

The two men grabbed Chen Shi's arms, and after another moment of emotion, they spoke in deep voices.

"From now on, if our elder brother gives the order, we'll go through fire and water without batting an eye!"

"That's right! From now on, we two will obey our elder brother's every command!"

"We're all brothers, talking about these things would be too distant."

Chen Shi patted the two men on the shoulders and said something casually.

He thought to himself, "At least tonight's risk wasn't in vain."

Whether Du Yueming and Zhang Xiaotian were sincere or not, Chen Shi's life-saving grace was genuine. In the martial arts world, reputation is very important. With this life-saving grace, they will never betray Chen Shi in the future.

Thus, even if one day Xiao Fengxiao sends someone else to replace Chen Shi, Du Yueming and Zhang Xiaotian will only recognize Chen Shi.

After this, he truly had the Flying Eagle Gang and the Wolf Poison Gang under his control.

"Let's go back!"

Du Yueming and Zhang Xiaotian were still injured. After exchanging a few words, Chen Shi led the group back.

By the time they reached the city gate, it was already daylight.

After entering the city, Chen Shi breathed a sigh of relief; after a whole night of work, the matter was finally resolved.

"Take good care of your gang leader."

Du Yueming and Zhang Xiaotian went back to recuperate, and Chen Shi gave his men a brief instruction before returning to the Marquis's residence.

"Chen Shi".

Just then, with a soft shout, an old man in a white robe walked out from the corner of the street.

"...Steward Sun!"

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Chen Shi was taken aback and hurriedly bowed.

He is one of only four stewards in the Jing'an Marquis's mansion, holding a prestigious position, and is treated with great respect even by the young masters and ladies.

Chen Shi had seen the product during the previous testing.

It seemed that Steward Sun had come specifically to find him.

Chen Shi frowned secretly. If Steward Sun was personally involved, then the matter was serious.

"You went too far last night."

Steward Sun looked at Chen Shi, shook his head slightly, and then gave an order.

"Come with me back for questioning."

"……yes."

Chen Shi lowered his head, not daring to disobey.

As the chief steward, Steward Sun's cultivation level is even higher than Jia Shun's!

Even if Chen Shi wanted to run away now, he wouldn't be able to.

Even Zhe Liu dared not show himself rashly, fearing the power of Steward Sun.

Fortunately, Steward Sun said he would "go back and question them," so there should still be some leeway in this matter.

Otherwise, there would be no need for questioning; we could just arrest him and take him back to be punished.

Upon returning to the Marquis's residence, Steward Sun walked ahead, heading directly east.

The Jing'an Marquis's residence has three branches: the eldest branch lives in the east, the second branch is in the middle slightly to the west, and the third branch is in the west.

Could it be that they're heading towards the main house?

Sure enough, after passing through a second gate, we arrived at the area where the main house was located.

But instead of taking them to someone's yard, they arrived at a small garden.

On a swing, a handsome man, who looked to be in his early twenties and dressed in fine clothes, sat there. Surrounded by seven or eight pretty maids, they massaged his legs, patted his shoulders, fanned him, and served him wine and fruit.

"The person has been brought."

Steward Sun said something and then stood aside.

"Greetings, Third Master!"

Chen Shi pretended to be terrified and stepped forward to bow.

The person in front of me is none other than Gu Chenglie!

The son of the eldest master and Madam Li, and the only legitimate son of the eldest branch of the family, is the first choice to inherit the title in the future.

Similarly, he was also Aqing's master.

"Guards, beat this servant to death!"

Gu Chenglie didn't even glance at Chen Shi before giving the order.

Immediately afterwards, a group of servants carrying sticks came in from outside.

Chen Shi was immediately startled, his fists clenched tightly for a moment, but then he relaxed them and said in a deep voice.

"Third Master is the master, and I am the servant. If Third Master wants to beat me to death, I dare not utter a single complaint. But I am still Second Master's man, and Third Master must give Second Master an explanation!"

"Give Gu Chengze an explanation?"

Gu Chenglie then raised his head, glanced at Chen Shi, and suddenly let out a disdainful sneer.

Does he deserve it?

"Third Master! No matter what, Second Master is still your elder brother!"

"You lackey! It's not your place to lecture me!"

Gu Chenglie's gaze turned cold, and then he waved his hand impatiently.

"Are you deaf?! I said I'd beat this lackey to death!"

The group of powerful servants who had already approached Chen Shi raised their clubs.

Chen Shi frowned slightly, clenched his fist again, and stared at Gu Chenglie with a chilling gaze. Although he knew he couldn't resist, he couldn't let himself be slaughtered.

"Third brother, you're so impressive!"

Just then, a clear, cold voice rang out, and Xiao Fengxiao stepped in.
