Beating Up Qingshan Sect Disciples

Liu Wen gritted his teeth, channeling his Internal Energy into a claw strike towards his back.

But in the next moment, Shen Qing's foot kicked his waist, sending him flying. He crashed into two osmanthus trees, the sound of cracking bones echoing, blood gushing uncontrollably from his mouth.

Lin Lian'er's expression changed, and she shakily raised her paper umbrella to point at Shen Qing.

"You... why are you so ruthless?"

Shen Qing turned his head and gave her a cold glance.

"I hit him, not you, right?"

The next moment, he appeared before Lin Lian'er, unleashing a heavy punch that even created a sonic boom, striking her directly in the lower abdomen. She doubled over like a cooked shrimp.

Lin Lian'er collapsed to the ground, bile mixed with blood surging from her stomach. Her eyes were filled with terror, and her voice lost all its former arrogance.

"Do you know who my father is..."

Shen Qing didn't bother waiting for her to finish. He kicked Lin Lian'er directly in the face, knocking her unconscious.

"Hang them all up and beat them to death."

Pang Xiyuan and the others moved quickly. Lin Lian'er and Liu Wen were tightly bound and hung from trees. Liu Hui, not daring to resist, surrendered obediently and was also hung up beside them.

Several Imperial Guards took out whips and lashed out at them. These whips were specially made, each strike drawing blood.

Lin Lian'er's entire body was torn open, and tears streamed down her face as she let out whimpers.

She regretted everything now.

As for Liu Wen, he was the main target. Three Imperial Guards whipped him from three different directions, leaving not a single inch of his body uninjured.

Shen Qing sat on a large rock nearby. The Scholar took a wine flask from his waist and handed it over.

"Boss, have some wine and rest."

"Boss, what's the situation in the forest? Should we call for reinforcements?"

Shen Qing was also a bit thirsty. He took the wine and took a sip, then chuckled.

"A pack of wild wolves doesn't require reinforcements. It's just troublesome to find them; they aren't in the forest. But wolves, being beasts, are sensitive to the smell of blood. We can lure them out by finding something to bleed."

The surrounding animals had all fled due to the pack of wolves, so finding an animal to bleed would be troublesome.

Black Dog cupped his hands. "Boss, I'll take some men across the river and catch a couple of livestock."

Shen Qing crossed his legs and waved his hand. "It would have been troublesome, but now it's not necessary."

"Aren't we being delivered some right to our doorstep?"

Following Shen Qing's gaze, they immediately saw Lin Lian'er and Liu Wen hanging from the trees.

Shen Qing's voice wasn't quiet, and he wasn't speaking behind their backs. Hearing this, Lin Lian'er's tears flowed uncontrollably. She whimpered frantically, seemingly begging for mercy, truly feeling the terror of death.

The thought of being used as bait to lure wild wolves made her tremble uncontrollably. Her eyes rolled back, and she fainted from fright.

On the other side, Liu Wen's situation was even more pathetic. His legs felt wet, and he had directly urinated himself.

He was accustomed to bullying the weak, but today he had encountered such a ruthless person.

The Imperial Guards felt no burden about this method, as Liu Wen had indeed intended to kill them.

If Shen Qing hadn't been here today, this group would have been finished.

Suddenly, Old Li, who was scratching his ear and looking distressed, caught everyone's attention.

The Scholar patted his shoulder. "Old Li, what are you doing? Squatting there like a monkey."

"Are you injured?"

Old Li turned his head, his face still contorted. "No~ I was just flung into the bushes and hit a vine. This thing has thorns. It's probably poisonous. It hurts and stings where it broke the skin."

Everyone looked at the section of green vine in Old Li's hand with curiosity. Even Old Li couldn't stand it, so it must have been very painful.

The Scholar looked somewhat disgusted. "Then why are you holding it? Hurry up and throw it away!"

"Could it be that you have some peculiar fetish? Do you like... ew~"

The people around them took a few steps back, their expressions showing disgust.

Old Li quickly explained, "No, I was thinking, this thing hurts a lot more than a whip. Maybe we can use it as a new torture device."

Everyone was stunned for a moment. So that's what you were squatting there scratching your head about.

Shen Qing couldn't help but look back.

My dear Minister of Justice seems to have thought of something new again.

Shen Qing smiled. "Old Li, if you have something good, use it quickly."

Old Li chuckled, turned, and disappeared into the jungle, pulling out several vines.

The Imperial Guards who were carrying out the punishment glanced at the whips in their hands and immediately tossed them aside, picking up the vines instead.

With one whip down, Liu Wen's eyes nearly bulged out of his head.

He didn't know how many whips had been struck when Shen Qing, who had been quietly sitting on the giant rock, slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the depths of the osmanthus grove.

"Finally, they're here."

Shen Qing stood up and patted the drowsy scholar. "Go wake them all up and hide in the trees."

The scholar jolted awake, all sleepiness gone. He immediately realized the wild wolves were coming and hurried to wake the others, who all scrambled into the trees.

Soon, a pair of green eyes lit up in the darkness, and a wild wolf appeared. However, it didn't charge forward immediately but paced back and forth, baring its teeth.

Although it couldn't see anyone, it could smell the scent of many Imperial Guards. Its instincts told it this place was dangerous.

But the blood dripping from Liu Wen and Lin Lian'er, hanging from the trees, was too tempting. The blood of a peak Houtian Realm martial artist was a powerful lure.

After much hesitation, its primal desire finally overcame its inferior intellect.

It let out a howl and charged towards the two, opening its mouth wide to bite down on Liu Wen's leg. It tore and gnawed. Liu Wen's eyes were filled with terror as he kicked his legs, but it was useless. Shen Qing's kick had broken several of his ribs, and after dozens of whip lashes, he had no strength left to resist.

He regretted it, regretting provoking the Imperial Guards and regretting his murderous intentions.

But alas, there's no medicine for regret in this world.

With a tearing sound, Liu Wen's eyes bulged, bloodshot. The wolf had ripped a chunk of flesh from his lower leg.

Before long, a scattered sound echoed through the woods. The wolf, busy gnawing on flesh, lowered its head.

Slowly, several pairs of emerald green eyes appeared in the forest, and at their center were a pair of emerald green pupils as large as copper bells.

Bathed in moonlight, the figure of a white wolf, two meters tall, gradually emerged. It was clearly the Wolf King of this area.

It slowly walked forward, and the wolf below lowered its head.

The white Wolf King's nose twitched slightly, and a fierce glint appeared in its eyes. Its sense of smell was far superior to ordinary wolves. It could smell the Imperial Guards and even detect a Xiantian Realm expert.

The wolf below crawled to the Wolf King's side, whimpering, seemingly trying to claim credit.

The white Wolf King raised a paw and swatted the wolf to the ground, letting out a hoarse sound.

"It was... you who led the human Xiantian here?"

This Wolf King had gained sentience, but having lived in Bailu Marsh without anyone to teach it, its speech was very rudimentary, unlike Li Yu.

It bared its fangs and growled, looking towards the osmanthus tree.

"Stop hiding... come out."

At this moment, a clear, cold voice came from its side.

"Hey, are you blind? Look over here."

The white Wolf King's pupils contracted sharply. It leaped up, arching its back and baring its teeth towards Shen Qing.

Thanks to the Wolf King, Shen Qing realized for the first time that wolves could puff up like this.

From the shadows, Shen Qing sat on the giant rock, quietly watching it.

The white wolf's mind raced.

When had he gotten there?

If he had attacked just now, could it have even defended itself?

It was a close call. He didn't attack, and instead revealed his position.

The Wolf King let out an unpleasant sound.

"Such a foolish human. You had such a great opportunity and didn't ambush me? Let me tell you, you've missed your last chance."

Shen Qing frowned.

"Damn it, what is this gibberish?"

The next moment, he vanished from the giant rock, transforming into a cannonball that shot towards the Wolf King, unleashing a heavy punch.

The Wolf King's first instinct was to dodge, but its usually agile limbs felt clumsy now. As it barely lifted its paw, Shen Qing's fist smashed into its face.

The Wolf King was sent flying backward, two of its fangs broken. Only one thought echoed in its mind.

He didn't ambush me, and I still couldn't block him.
