Chapter 483: Can I Scram Now?
The man in the black suit’s voice still echoed.
At his signal, the men beside him holding steel pipes sneered at Jiang Xinghai and Qin Shuang and started to rush toward the office building.
"It’s alright. They won’t get their way," Jiang Xinghai said reassuringly, his gaze fixed calmly on Qin Shuang.
"But they..." Panic flickered across Qin Shuang’s face. She clenched her fists, her lips slightly parted.
With a sweep of his arm, Jiang Xinghai blocked the first man who charged at them.
He twisted his arm and tore the man’s arm right off.
"AHHH!!!"
With a bloodcurdling scream, the man collapsed to the ground in agony.
The bloody, severed limb landed on the ground with a sickening thud.
Seeing this, the other men’s faces changed drastically, as if they had seen a ghost.
’Who would have thought Jiang Xinghai could be so ruthless?’
They stared at Jiang Xinghai in terror. A seed of fear sprouted in their hearts, and they began to back away, not daring to get any closer.
No one had expected this seemingly ordinary young man to be so brazen and vicious.
Qin Shuang’s face also went pale, terrified by the bloody scene.
The man in the black suit was stunned, a flash of disbelief in his eyes.
It had all happened so fast he didn’t even have time to react.
However, he had no intention of giving up. His eyes were cold as ice, enough to make one shiver.
"Kid, to have reached the Master Realm at such a young age... I underestimated you." The man in the black suit was also in the Master Realm, so he wasn’t afraid. "So, the Yu Family finally sent their guards. Very well. Let’s fight!"
"A bunch of useless rabble like you shouldn’t come here and embarrass yourselves. Go back and tell the Wei Family that if they stop now, they can save themselves. Otherwise, I don’t mind paying them a personal visit." Jiang Xinghai’s gaze swept over them, a cold sneer playing on his lips.
"Such arrogance!"
The man in the black suit’s eyes widened. He rolled up his sleeves. "You’ll have to get through me first!"
"You?" Jiang Xinghai scoffed.
The man in the black suit waved his arm. "What the hell are you all standing around for? You’re all Great Martial Artists! Are you this scared of ganging up on one Master? All of you, attack! I’ll cover the rear!"
But the men with the steel pipes still didn’t dare to move forward.
After all, they were just Great Martial Artists. Against a Master, they had virtually no hope of survival.
"Fine. I’ll leave one of you alive. The rest can stay here for good."
A cold smile played on Jiang Xinghai’s lips as he pounced like a tiger descending a mountain.
’Leaving one alive to deliver a message will make the Wei Family think twice. If I kill them all, the Wei Family will just send more people to cause trouble.’
Jiang Xinghai moved as fast as lightning, his actions a blur.
A series of agonized screams rang out as the men with steel pipes fell one after another.
Their bodies twitched feebly, like puppets with their strings cut. The moment they hit the ground, they were dead.
’So vicious!’
The man in the black suit froze again. "You... you’re not a Master... you’re a Grandmaster!"
"Now, you’re the only one left. You can guess all you want," Jiang Xinghai said, his sharp gaze fixed on the man. "Take all these bodies with you. And clean up the bloodstains on the ground before you go!"
"You-you-you... you’re a Grandmaster! You’ve violated the code of the Jianghu!" the man’s face contorted in alarm.
According to the rules of the Jianghu, unless it was a life-or-death feud between families, cultivators above the Grandmaster level were forbidden from getting involved.
That was why the man in the black suit, an agent of the Wei Family’s Runmei Company, was only at the Master Realm himself.
The moment he realized the terrifying extent of Jiang Xinghai’s power, he didn’t dare to linger for a second longer and turned to flee like a madman.
However, he had no idea that Jiang Xinghai was actually an expert at the Celestial Destiny Realm. With a casual wave of his hand, an immense, oppressive force locked the man in place.
THUD!
The man in the black suit was frozen in place. His own momentum sent him toppling, and he face-planted onto the ground.
"You’re not worthy of mentioning the rules of the Jianghu to me," Jiang Xinghai said, now standing over the man. "Go back and tell Master Wei that you were the ones in the wrong. We were just defending ourselves. And self-defense, naturally, requires a show of strength."
"Yes, yes, I understand, I understand..." Hearing that he would be allowed to live, the man in the black suit nodded frantically.
"Before you go, collect the bodies and clean this place up."
With that, Jiang Xinghai turned and walked back to the pale-faced Qin Shuang.
Only then did the man in the black suit feel the binding force on his body gradually fade.
Not daring to defy Jiang Xinghai’s orders, he quickly threw his subordinates’ bodies into the van and hastily scrubbed the bloodstains from the ground.
"Sir... c-can I get the hell out of here now?" after finishing his work, the man asked, glancing nervously at Jiang Xinghai.
"Wait!"
Qin Shuang suddenly summoned her courage and said, "All that rebar you hammered into the ground... you need to take care of that before you leave."
"Right. I almost forgot about that," Jiang Xinghai nodded.
Over the next half hour, the man in the black suit dug up at least a hundred pieces of rebar.
"Sir, can I please get out of here now?"
