One Man, One Saber, Fighting a Hundred Japanese Pirates Alone

Meanwhile, at the Hundred Households Office in the west of Luoshui City.

The arrest operation arranged by Shen Qing had been successfully completed. Fang Ming, Ding Yi, and others apprehended everyone on the list with lightning speed.

One by one, the prisoners were escorted into the prison. Fang Ming patted the head of a Colonel, pointing to a half-dead prisoner behind him.

"What's going on? If you're going to catch them, go easy! These could be Japanese pirates. Interrogating even one is a contribution."

The Colonel scratched his head. "Commander, this kid was fierce. He even tried to kill us."

"Are you guys alright?"

The Colonel shook his head. "We're fine. We just couldn't hold back and beat him this badly."

Fang Ming patted his shoulder. "Good job. Go to logistics, get some medicine, and force-feed it to this kid. He dared to fight back? He won't die until he's gone through every torture."

Just then, Zhang Shan's voice came from behind Fang Ming.

"Yo, Fang Ming, is it New Year's? Catching so many people at once?"

Fang Ming pondered for a moment before telling Zhang Shan what had happened.

Zhang Shan looked astonished. "So these are all Japanese pirates?"

"Not all of them. Some are likely colluding with the Japanese pirates."

Zhang Shan's face was filled with grief and pain. "You guys really are celebrating the New Year!"

Fang Ming couldn't suppress a grin. "Heh heh, it's all thanks to Lord Shen's brilliant methods. We small fry are just benefiting from his success."

"Speaking of which, why does Lord Zhang have time to visit us today?"

Zhang Shan's eyes were fixed on the prisoners being escorted in, and he spoke absentmindedly.

"A case has stumped me, and I wanted to see if your Hundred Households Office has any good ideas. Where is your Centurion? Is he inside?"

"No, our Centurion went to White Cherry Villa. According to the Japanese pirates, it seems to be their stronghold?"

Zhang Shan's expression changed. "Shen Qing went alone?"

"Isn't that reckless? White Cherry Villa has nearly two hundred people, with three or four in the Xiantian Realm."

"Quick, quick, quick, notify the city guard army. Never mind, it's too late."

"Fang Ming, you take a few dozen men, and with my hundred, it should be enough."

"Set off immediately to support Shen Qing!"

At the north end of White Cherry Villa, several Japanese pirates were drinking and bragging in a room.

"Do you remember the Zheng family in Dongjiao Town? I told you yesterday I went to town, and they were so grateful to me, even inviting me to dinner."

The others laughed heartily. "Didn't their family head's wife and daughter die by your hand? And they're still grateful to you?"

"You don't understand. The constable in Dongjiao Town was replaced by one of our own long ago. We just spun a few lies, and the Zheng family believed it. They really thought I was a kind person who returned the bodies. I've already made over a hundred taels of silver from this."

"Is that true? Then I'll have to make time to visit Dongjiao Town too."

The men in the room burst into laughter, their eyes filled with lewdness.

Just then, the room door was kicked open, and a panicked figure entered.

"You're still drinking? The warehouse is on fire!"

The drunkenness of several Japanese pirates dissipated slightly. They hurriedly grabbed their weapons and rushed towards the warehouse.

Such scenes were happening all over the villa. The Japanese pirates guarding the perimeter also ran into the villa upon seeing the flames.

Before long, over a dozen Japanese pirates arrived, with more coming continuously.

"Bastards! Which idiot was on watch at the warehouse today! If anything happens to the warehouse, we'll all have to commit seppuku!"

"Quick! Put out the fire!"

A Japanese pirate ran over with a bucket of water, aiming to throw it into the burning warehouse.

Suddenly, a silver shadow descended from above the warehouse. The silver Flying Fish Robe rustled in the wind. A green light flashed from above, streaking down past the pirate.

A line of blood slowly appeared. In the next moment, the bucket and the pirate were both cut in half.

Everyone present was terrified by the sudden scene.

"Imperial Guards?"

Although Shen Qing's Flying Fish Robe was already stained with blood, the closest Japanese pirate recognized him.

"Knowledgeable, but unfortunately, no prize." Shen Qing didn't even turn his head. He swept out a fist, directly blasting off half of the pirate's skull. Red and white matter splattered everywhere. The pirate's mouth continued to open and close, completely unaware that his head had been blown off.

The remaining Japanese pirates panicked. Fear surged from their hearts. They instinctively wanted to flee, feeling they were no match for Shen Qing.

Just then, a roar of killing came, and another dozen or so Japanese pirates rushed in brandishing their sabers.

At this moment, these Japanese pirates felt their courage return.

If a dozen couldn't kill you, what about thirty?

Shen Qing let out a cold snort and unleashed a blade strike. His domineering True Qi condensed into a fierce slash, directly cutting three Japanese pirates in half. The slash also left a huge mark on the warehouse wall behind them.

He threw a punch, and it sounded like a dragon or elephant roaring. One Japanese pirate was pulverized into pieces.

Shen Qing transformed into a nightmare specter, taking the life of a Japanese pirate with every appearance.

These Japanese pirates were either sliced in half or smashed into pieces by his fist.

This was the first time Shen Qing had truly unleashed his killing intent since arriving in this world. He didn't have to worry about not having enough to kill.

White Cherry Villa had been established for at least a decade. Their plan this time had been in preparation for at least ten years. These soybeans were their ultimate achievement, and this warehouse was their lifeline.

Setting this warehouse ablaze was akin to burning their lives. They would rush towards it like moths to a flame.

Shen Qing's only task was to become Death itself and bestow death upon these Japanese pirates.

Shen Qing grabbed a Japanese pirate by the wrist with one hand and swung him violently, using him as a hammer to smash into another.

With a bang.

Both pirates were reduced to a bloody pulp.

[You have killed a Houtian Realm cultivator. Congratulations on successfully plundering the trait: Whip Master (Green).]

[You have killed a Houtian Realm cultivator. Congratulations on successfully plundering the trait: Arrow Mastery (Green).]

Shen Qing's feet were covered in incomplete corpses. Blood dripped from the Qing He blade onto the ground, and the fierce flames danced across Shen Qing's face. At this moment, Shen Qing was a terrifying sight in the eyes of these Japanese pirates.

Shen Qing tilted his head slightly, thoroughly enjoying the moment, the feeling of slaughtering madly and strengthening himself.

Not far away, shouts of killing arose. More Japanese pirates armed with blades charged forward. This time, there were over thirty of them.

It seemed Shen Qing had underestimated White Cherry Villa. He had initially estimated around a hundred, but now it seemed there were far more.

Shen Qing let out a wild laugh, raising the Qing He and pointing it at the approaching pirates, his dominance evident.

"Come! Come! Come!"

This roar was faintly accompanied by the sound of dragons and elephants, shaking the minds of the approaching pirates and causing them to halt, afraid to advance.

Although these Japanese pirates were beasts, they also feared death, and they gradually began to consider retreating.

However, a short Japanese pirate arrived, blocking their retreat. He appeared to be a minor leader.

He decapitated a pirate who was trying to flee with a single stroke, then roared.

"Where do you think you're going? Are you betraying the Emperor?"

"All of you, charge! He's only one person; his True Qi will eventually run out."

"Whoever kills him will be rewarded with fifty taels of gold and can return to their homeland."

Shen Qing raised an eyebrow. It seemed he had killed too many small fry and now an elite enemy had appeared. He then let out a sneer.

"You bunch of pigs raised by sows, you even have homelands."

The short pirate's face darkened, and he roared.

"Charge."

At the pirate's command, the thirty pirates roared, their despair tinged with a hint of longing.

Despair because they would die if they advanced, and die if they retreated, yet they longed to claim the fifty taels of gold.

Shen Qing glanced at the massive boulder, over three meters tall, beside him, and casually plunged the Qing He into the ground.

All the pirates present stared dumbfounded as Shen Qing lifted the three-meter-tall boulder with his bare hands.

"Is he even human?"

A pirate's voice trembled with extreme fear.

Immediately after, all the pirates' eyes widened in horror as they saw Shen Qing leap high into the air with the boulder and charge towards them.

The pirates completely broke down, dropping their weapons and turning to flee.

"Trying to run? Too slow!"

A few pirates despairingly watched a shadow rapidly enlarge beneath their feet. With a bang.

Blood splattered. Of course, only blood remained; the rest had already been reduced to a bloody pulp.

The remaining pirates had no time to rejoice, because in the next moment, Shen Qing grabbed the boulder and began to spin it.

Like a giant windmill, every pirate was smashed, their bones flying and flesh splattering, adding a vibrant red hue to this colossal stone windmill.

The Japanese pirates who arrived from afar were so terrified they almost lost their souls. Saving the warehouse? Saving their comrades? It was all forgotten as they turned and fled.

The corners of Shen Qing's mouth curved slightly. He threw the giant boulder like a flying disc, precisely smashing an escaping pirate into a pulp.

Trying to run? Today, every single person in White Cherry Villa would die.

All of them!!!
