The old woman's voice was gentle, but her words were extremely sharp!
And her words, of course, were not meant for the infant in the swaddling clothes.
At this moment, these two members of the Jing Family, one old and one young, were being cornered in a patch of woods by two fierce individuals, one in front and one behind.
Guarding the front was a short, stout old man. He held a round-headed copper hammer, stood five feet tall, but had a waist circumference of four feet, resembling a vicious-looking stone roller.
Blocking the rear was a tall, thin man, holding a slender iron skewer. He was over seven feet tall, extremely gaunt, like a gloomy-looking bamboo pole.
Having finally cornered these remnants of the Jing Family, even though the old woman's words were unpleasant, the two of them would not easily retreat.
The bamboo pole-like man then spoke:
"Granny Jing Family, the matters of your family this time have little to do with us brothers. There is a head to every wrong and a master to every debt. If your Jing Family ever has a day to rise again, just go find the real debtors for revenge."
"The two of us blocking your path are merely hoping to borrow your Jing Family's Destiny Book for a look."
"Our two brothers' inheritance is damaged, lacking the Destiny Constitution refining method required for cultivation. Our cultivation cannot advance, which is very difficult to bear. Please grant us this favor, Granny!"
The bamboo pole-like man's voice was cold and hard. In his seemingly polite words, one could only discern a heart full of killing intent!
Jing Qian, in the swaddling clothes, heard the human voices and managed to open his blurry eyes, vaguely observing the situation before him.
He didn't pay attention to the two fierce bandits in front and behind.
What surprised him more was that the small hanging basket he was in was suspended from a shimmering blue spider silk.
And his grandmother in this life was actually sitting high up, perched on the head of a green spider about ten feet tall.
The spider's body was large and its face terrifying, but its eight legs, covered in fine hairs and sharp spines, were long and powerful.
Granny Qi completely ignored what the bamboo pole-like man said, not even looking at him directly.
Her heart and eyes were filled only with Jing Qian, who had just opened his eyes before her.
"My little grandson is awake?"
"Did these two thieves disturb you?"
"Don't be afraid, let Grandma put on a good show for you!"
The old woman reached out her hands, lifted Jing Qian from the hanging basket, and held him in her arms.
Suddenly, a sharp iron skewer fiercely thrust out from behind her, aiming directly at the vital point of her back!
In that instant, the bamboo pole-like bandit had crossed a distance of dozens of meters and rushed close!
This iron skewer, stained by his magic power, turned black as ink and shot out at extreme speed, emitting a sharp whistling sound!
And the next second, the bamboo pole-like man only felt his left leg go numb, his strength changed, and his meticulously practiced assassination actually deviated by nearly a foot!
His tall figure also flashed past the old woman, missing her.
But the incomparably sharp iron skewer thrust did not miss its target.
At the point where his strength was exhausted, in the direction the iron skewer was pointing, the stone roller had already been waiting there for a long time.
The black iron skewer plunged straight into the other person's chest cavity, then pierced straight out from his back, bringing out a stream of bright red blood!
Throughout the entire process, these two individuals didn't utter a single word, as if they were mortal enemies!
But upon closer inspection, both of their mouths were firmly sewn shut with fine, dense, light blue spider silk!
Since the two fierce men couldn't speak, they naturally couldn't scare the infant beside them.
Not only that, but at some point, fine strands of spider silk had also attached themselves to the joints of these two fierce men!
They had already been ambushed and turned into puppets of this spider demon!
Their muscles were tense, and their bodies trembled, clearly struggling desperately.
But the fine spider silk had magical power gathered upon it; it was extremely thin but incredibly heavy, pressing down on the two of them, leaving no room for resistance!
Immediately after, driven by the spider silk, they performed a bizarre action!
The one called Bamboo Pole used the iron skewer in his right hand to stab into Stone Pier's chest, then lifted him up and held him horizontally at his waist.
With his left hand, he snatched the iron hammer from Stone Pier's hand and swung it towards his face.
"Bang!"
With one hammer blow, blood splattered everywhere!
But Bamboo Pole didn't stop; he kept swinging the hammer with all his might!
And as he swung the hammer, he also stretched his body and began a strange dance!
"Bang!"
"Bang bang!"
"Bang!"
This dance was bloody and gruesome, yet incredibly rhythmic!
Jing Qian, in the old woman's arms, watched all of this, and a thought couldn't help but surface in his mind:
Ansay Waist Drum?
Just like that, Bamboo Pole treated Stone Roller as a human waist drum, beating and dancing, splashing his good brother's blood as he cleared the way forward!
Bamboo Pole had cultivation, and under the control of the spider silk, his speed was as fast as a galloping horse, like a bizarre creature spewing blood along the way.
Behind him, the spirit spider moved even faster, traversing the mountain forest as if on flat ground, not affecting the old and young on its back in the slightest.
After walking for a while, the most unfortunate Stone Pier, after being hammered forty-seven times by his brother, finally breathed his last.
His entire head was smashed more than halfway before he died, which could be considered tenacious vitality!
The moment he died, a green light spot shot directly into Jing Qian's glabella and Niwan Palace.
Throughout the entire process, no one present noticed.
Upon receiving this light spot, Jing Qian immediately felt a sensation. The one-year-old child fell asleep in an instant.
When he woke up again, he was back in that narrow space!
And the fierce-looking Stone Pier had indeed appeared here!
However, unlike the previous enemy, this stone pier did not actively attack.
Jing Qian stood before his stone tablet without moving, and the stone pier also remained in place.
With the stone tablet as the center, a safe zone was formed with a radius of one meter.
Jing Qian carefully examined the stone pier before him, attempting to take half a step outward.
The next second, the stone pier opposite him actually rolled over, swinging its iron hammer and attacking him at an extremely fast speed!
The distance of a few meters was covered in an instant, the iron hammer whistled like the wind, but it heavily struck a transparent light screen.
Jing Qian had already retracted the half step he had taken.
The existence of this light screen kept him safe and sound.
And the stone pier's full-force hammer blow was forcefully repelled by the stone tablet with a higher-level power. This recoil force directly sent it flying, causing some slight damage.
As it spat out blood and suffered internal injuries, a small ball of thicker, pale blue smoke emerged from its body.
This smoke drifted to Jing Qian's side in the blink of an eye and merged with him.
Upon receiving this wisp of smoke, his strength increased slightly, but the amount of smoke was a bit small, and he did not acquire any memories.
And he watched with his own eyes as a line of information on the stone tablet before him suddenly flickered!
Destiny Essence: 0.11
The increase in this Destiny Essence made Jing Qian's heart stir, and he couldn't help but take half a step outward again.
As expected, the stone pier struggled to its feet, and rolling over, charged towards him again!
