On-the-Spot Lesson
"Words are no proof!" the little boy said with a skeptical look. "What evidence do you have to prove you're my brother?"
"You bastard, you think you're so smart? How could you be so smart that you got tied up here?" Yue Qianchou flicked him again, making him squeal, then casually tore off the ropes binding him. He stood up and stared at Liu Li, asking, "Was this all done by Yue Changping's family and you?"
"How did you know? Did the Second Boss- command tell you?" Liu Li was taken aback. Only he and the Second Boss knew about this; he hadn't told anyone else. If anyone had, it would have been the Second Boss. After all, betraying one's employer in the underworld was no good thing.
Yue Qianchou sneered, "With Yue Changping's character, he wears everything on his sleeve. Does he need anyone to tell him what to do? As for your Second Boss, I didn't like him, so I sent him to be reincarnated."
"It was him!" Suddenly, the little boy pointed to his swollen face and said, "It was that Yue Changping who did it. He tricked us out of the city, and that's why my face is swollen."
"Ah! You killed the Second Boss... What about the two brothers?" Liu Li exclaimed in shock.
Yue Qianchou glanced at the little brat but said nothing. He then turned and looked Liu Li up and down, saying strangely, "Liu Li, have you been away from Fu Xian Island for too long, or have you lost your mind? Do I need to report to you if I kill a few people? Stop arguing with me. If it weren't for our past as fellow disciples, your head would have been gone long ago. Go and gather all your henchmen together. I have something to say."
Liu Li seemed to have all his strength drained away instantly, and said dejectedly, "Yes," before slowly walking out.
Perhaps because he had been tied up for too long, Yue Wuchou a little clumsy standing there. Yue Qianchou looked at him and smiled, "Can you still walk? Do you want me to carry you?"
Yue Wuchou and angry, said, "Who wants you to carry me! I can walk by myself." Suddenly, he asked curiously, "Are you really my brother?" As he spoke, he kept looking at the stranger in front of him.
"If you can walk, come with me." Yue Qianchou was too lazy to waste words with him. He thought to himself, "He's just a little kid and he's already so arrogant. It's all because of the spoiled children of wealthy families. If he continues like this, he'll suffer a lot. Today, I'll teach your cheap little brother a lesson so he won't be so ignorant of his own limitations."
"Clang, clang, clang..." The urgent sound of gongs rang out outside, and the entire mountain stronghold became lively. Liu Li stood on a small wooden platform, looking at the hundreds of his men who had gathered, his face ashen and silent, as if he had a premonition that something bad was about to happen. However, Yue Qianchou's strength was far beyond his ability to contend with; to put it bluntly, crushing him would be as easy as crushing an ant.
A group of henchmen stood quietly and orderly below the stage. Yue Qianchou sneered inwardly, "The discipline is quite strict." He turned around and glanced at the limping little brat following behind, saying, "Come up with me." He walked to Liu Li's side on the wooden platform first. The little brat struggled to climb up, but before he could even stand properly, Yue Qianchou grabbed him by the back of his collar and lifted him over.
"Let me go, I can leave." The little brat struggled in vain. Yue Qianchou pointed to the group of Human Path below and said, "I was going to let them go today, but you said you wanted to raze this place to the ground. Fine, I'll grant your wish today."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Li knelt down with a thud and pleaded repeatedly, "Please, senior, spare them! They all have elderly parents and young children to support down the mountain. Their families depend on them for their livelihood. They wouldn't have followed me up the mountain to become outlaws if they weren't forced into this situation. If they are killed, their families will not survive. Please, senior, have mercy!"
The henchmen were all terrified. They had all seen Yue Qianchou descend from the sky with such charisma. To them, anyone who could fly in the sky was like a god. Now, this god-like figure was saying he wanted to kill them. They immediately knelt down and begged for mercy. In an instant, the entire mountain stronghold was filled with cries of pleas for mercy.
"What 'having elderly parents and young children'? You can say those things to those you killed after you die. If you're going to be involved in this kind of life, you should understand one thing: what goes around comes around. It's not that retribution won't come, it's just that the time hasn't come yet," Yue Qianchou said slowly and coldly.
"No! Senior, I beg you, please don't!" Liu Li pleaded, clinging to his leg.
"Get out!" Yue Qianchou kicked him off the stage, then shook the little brat and shouted, "Watch closely!" Actually, Yue Wuchou was a bit stunned; he had never seen so many people kneeling and begging before.
As soon as he finished speaking, nearly a hundred beams of cold light shot out from the Storage Bag, sweeping wildly towards the kneeling crowd. Instantly, blood and flesh flew everywhere, screams shook the heavens, and a scene of utter devastation filled the air. The little boy was initially stunned, but after recovering, he trembled all over, covering his eyes with his small hands, unable to bear watching any longer.
Yue Qianchou snorted coldly. "This man is here to be killed for you to see, you have no choice but to watch." He pinched the back of the boy's neck with his thumb and forefinger, channeling a stream of True Essence into his body. The little boy's hands immediately went limp, his eyes wide open, witnessing the bloody, violent, and wanton slaughter before him. He couldn't speak, close his eyes, or move; he could only watch and listen, crystal tears streaming down his cheeks.
Liu Li, kneeling on the ground, clenched his fists, tears streaming down his face, howling to the heavens. But not a single flying sword that indiscriminately slaughtered him touched him. Those who tried to escape were instantly shredded to pieces by several flashes of cold light. And those who wanted to fight Yue Qianchou to the death, unfortunately, didn't even have a chance to get close before their legs disappeared, and by the time they fell, they were already broken into pieces.
In just a short while, apart from Liu Li, there was no one alive to be seen below. Limbs and torsos were everywhere, and blood pooled on the ground, flowing down to the lower ground. The smell of blood in the air was pungent.
Having killed all those who needed to be killed, Yue Qianchou activated his Divine Sense, and a hundred cold beams of light swept towards the various buildings of the mountain stronghold with overwhelming force, causing crashing sounds to echo everywhere. Before long, dust and smoke rose, not even sparing the upright flagpole. The cold beams receded, the sounds ceased, and the surroundings finally quieted down, with only Liu Li's sobbing voice breaking out in tears below the stage.
The entire Bajiao Village was completely unrecognizable, except for the wooden platform beneath Yue Qianchou's feet, which remained unchanged, standing there all alone. Yue Qianchou turned the little boy's head, making him look around, and said, "Didn't you want to flatten this place? I've already done it for you, but what's wrong with you? Why don't you even dare to look? If you don't even dare to look, how dare you say you'll flatten this place?"
"Huh?" Yue Qianchou lifted him up and shouted at him, "Crying? What are you crying for? Is that all the courage and strength you have? You dare to say such things?"
He turned him around again, making him witness the horrific scene around him once more, and shouted as he circled him, "See that? I didn't originally intend to kill them, but you said you wanted to raze this place to the ground. Well, it's already raze to the ground. What are you crying for? Do you regret it? Then what were you spouting nonsense about? Let me tell you now, a real man must be responsible for every word he says. What you see here is the consequence of your careless talk. Look carefully at everything here!"
A little while later, after the lesson was over, Yue Qianchou flicked his longsword, bent down again to scoop up Liu Li, and carried the two of them away on his sword. Just as he stood up, the wooden platform collapsed with a roar, completely flattening the entire Bajiao Village ... [QQ Group: 8136175.
