I Am a Man of My Word; If I Say I'll Kill Your Whole Family, I'll Kill Your Whole Family

Behind the main hall's screen was a long corridor.

Long Huaxing walked ahead, his back bent, his figure stooped, exuding a sense of twilight old age.

He didn't speak, and Fang Xuan naturally didn't take the initiative to ask.

Crack.

Long Huaxing stopped his steps, slightly turned sideways, and handed Fang Xuan a packet of medicinal powder wrapped in yellow paper.

"This is Poison Dissolving Powder. Apply it to the imprint of the Charging Tiger Palm, and the residual poison will dissipate on its own. Don't say I gave it to you."

Long Huaxing's face was weary. He took a deep breath and continued,

"There's nothing major in calling you here, just a few words of advice."

"Behind Zheng Juexiong stands the Second Young Master of the Sikong Family. The three legitimate sons of the Sikong Family are currently engaged in an internal power struggle. You've already stepped into this muddy water, and it's impossible to pull yourself out."

"Zheng Juexiong is narrow-minded and holds grudges. You've ruined his important matter, and he will definitely want your life. If you want to live, you need to not only improve your strength but also your combat methods. With just your crude boxing and kicking skills, even if your strength is equal to his, you won't be his opponent."

"I transferred him to the Northern Land overnight yesterday, but he will definitely return after staying in the Northern Land for at most two months."

"Therefore, within these two months, you must reach the limit of your strength!"

"Xiang Chengjiang of the West Hall is in cahoots with him, wearing the same pair of pants. You must be extremely careful."

"Huang Zhen of the North Hall seems to be on good terms with you, but this person is resourceful but indecisive, lacking the courage to break the pot and sink the boat. Such a person is the most fickle, swaying with the wind. He can only accompany you on a smooth journey; don't rely on him as a life-saving straw."

"Additionally, you'd best find a backer no weaker than that Second Young Master. I... cannot protect you."

As his words fell.

Long Huaxing turned around and walked forward.

Fang Xuan lowered his head to look at the medicinal powder in his hand, then after a slight thought, cupped his hands towards Long Huaxing's back and also turned to leave.

Listening to the gradually receding footsteps behind him, a sharp glint instantly flashed in Long Huaxing's cloudy eyes!

He continued walking forward, and a dim inner room immediately appeared before him.

Uncle Rong, the uncle who had previously been responsible for bathing Fang Xuan, was already waiting there.

"Gang Leader, you want Fang Xuan to check that wolf Zheng Juexiong. Aren't you thinking a bit too highly of him?" Uncle Rong frowned slightly.

Long Huaxing took off the prayer beads on his wrist and casually tossed them aside, then turned and sat down on a large chair.

"Zheng Juexiong is a wolf, and Fang Xuan is a young tiger. Even if he can't defeat this wolf, he should be able to bite off a piece of flesh from Zheng Juexiong."

Long Huaxing picked up the teacup beside the armrest and took a light sip.

"I've given him two months. Perhaps he can give me a surprise?"

Uncle Rong didn't speak, just shook his head and sighed softly, uttering one word:

"Difficult."

Long Huaxing also remained silent, just looking at the empty space ahead, a cold killing intent flowing in his cloudy eyes.

"Brother Xuan, congratulations! From now on, you'll be the Hall Master of our East Hall!"

"Hahaha, Brother Xuan, who are you planning to give the position of head horse to?"

"Wow, Brother Xuan, I didn't expect you to look so human-like... cough cough, so handsome in this long robe!"

"Brother Xuan, where are we going now? Should we go back to the East of the City and set up ten or a hundred tables?"

One Line Sky and the others swarmed in, laughing heartily.

"You guys go to the East of the City and set up fifty tables to treat all the brothers from the East Hall to drinks. I won't be going, I need to go find Old Man Yu."

Fang Xuan shook his head, then as if remembering something, he looked at Water Monkey and said,

"Oh right, how have Xiao Li and Xiao Lan been outside the city these past few days?"

Water Monkey patted his chest and laughed,

"Brother Xuan, don't worry, I'm being careful. Every time I deliver food to them, I go by the waterway in the dark. You know my swimming skills, who can keep up with me?"

"That's good."

Fang Xuan nodded, then raised his head and glanced at the plaque hanging high, with the four characters 'Righteous Sea Cloud Sky' written on it.

"Heh."

A mocking smile tugged at the corner of Fang Xuan's mouth, and then without hesitation, he strode towards the direction where Old Man Yu was.

On a road leading to the Northern Land.

Yellow sand filled the sky, and dust blew in their faces.

"Hall Master, are we really just going to obediently go to the Northern Land like this?" a ruffian said unwillingly.

"That old thing Long Huaxing has become muddle-headed over the years. He wants to play it safe and doesn't dare to take a stance with the Sikong Family in advance, and yet he's stopping me from going! His mother's, I call him gang leader out of respect, but if I don't give him face, I'll bury him sooner or later!"

Zheng Juexiong sat on a tall horse, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes.

The ruffian who had spoken earlier quickly smiled and echoed, "Long Huaxing is just a coward, while you, Hall Master, are in your prime. You'll pull him down sooner or later! But if we leave like this, won't that guy Fang Xuan live for a while longer?"

"It's fine, let him live for a while longer if he does. He won't be able to stir up any trouble."

Zheng Juexiong shook his head, then looked at the forest beside the official road.

He saw the tree shadows swaying in the forest, as if a team was transporting something.

Zheng Juexiong let out a heavy cold snort from his nose. If they had taken down the Ferry in the East Hall, why would he need to risk taking this official road to transport Human Pills for the Second Young Master? Not to mention the danger, he would also have to eat yellow sand for a month or two!

"Hall Master, the pit you wanted dug is ready!"

A ruffian from the South Hall stepped forward to report.

"Good!"

Zheng Juexiong dismounted and walked towards a patch of reed forest beside the official road.

In that patch of reed forest, a large pit had already been dug.

A tall and burly man with a small braid at the back of his head was tied hand and foot and thrown into the pit.

"Hall Master! Hall Master! Spare me, for the sake of my loyalty in following you for so long, please spare my life! I, I promise, I will atone for my sins and help you kill Fang Xuan!"

Xie Han's face was filled with terror. He moved his body like a maggot at the bottom of the pit, struggling to climb out of the deep hole.

However, at this moment, his bones were completely destroyed, and his meridians were all broken. Every time he managed to move up a little, he would roll back down again.

"Useless! I gave you the Demon Embryo Pill, and you still couldn't defeat Fang Xuan! What use are you to me? If it weren't for you, would I be eating dirt here now?"

Seeing Xie Han climbing up from the bottom of the pit again, a fierce look flashed in Zheng Juexiong's eyes. He casually picked up a shovel from the side and smashed it fiercely towards Xie Han's head!

Bang!

In an instant, Xie Han's entire head exploded, and his brain matter splattered everywhere.

The headless corpse rolled into the pit.

Zheng Juexiong casually threw the shovel in his hand into the pit as well. He wiped the blood from his face, too lazy to even look again, turned around, clasped his hands together, and said:

"Bury him."

Clang—!

Clang—!

Shovel after shovel of dirt was shoveled into the pit.

Zheng Juexiong twisted his thick neck, looked at a ruffian beside him, and asked:

"Fang Xuan's family, have you found them?"

The ruffian quickly replied with a smile, "Hall Master, we found them! That Fang Xuan hid his younger siblings in a thatched hut outside the city. Every three days, one of his subordinates called Water Monkey would sneak out at night by water to deliver food to them."

After a pause, the ruffian continued with a smile, "Hall Master, that Water Monkey is very skilled in water. He can dive across the river with a single plunge. If it weren't for that Water Monkey being lustful and boarding a pleasure boat to play with girls while delivering food, which made our people notice something unusual, he might have really kept it hidden!"

"Calculating the time, our South Hall people should have already set off for outside the city and started taking action."

Hearing this, Zheng Juexiong patted the ruffian's shoulder in appreciation, then turned his head to look at the distant city wall of Pingjiang City, which was only a faint outline left.

The corners of his mouth pulled back, his smile cold and ferocious.

"We Jianghu people, we keep our word. If we say we'll kill the whole family, we'll kill the whole family!"

"You agree, right?"

They say the early bird catches the worm. Old Drunk got up at 6:30 to update! Can I exchange for a monthly ticket, and exchange for the first reward for this book? O(∩_∩)O
