Getting Things Done (II)

There is a temple fifteen miles west of the city, known as the Fox Immortal Temple.
Legend has it that there was once a fox immortal who protected the area, and the local people built this
temple in his honor. But after the fox immortal disappeared, the temple fell into disrepair as the people
who had witnessed its existence passed away. Now, it stood alone in the wilderness, rarely visited by
anyone.
At that moment, children were tied up and dropped in a corner of the dilapidated temple, and Mi Bai
was tied to a pole.
“Smack! Smack! Smack!”novelbin
With fierce, red eyes, Feng Dezheng lashed out with a water-soaked whip. Each lash left a wound
where skin was ripped and flesh exposed on Mi Bai’s body. “How dare you run away?” he yelled.
“Smack!”
“You eat my food, live in my house, and then you shame me! I’ll break your legs!” Feng Dezheng
roared with harsh breaths. As a middle-aged man with no cultivation, he was already exhausted after a
few dozen lashes.
When the whip struck him, Mi Bai remained silent. It was only after Feng Dezheng stopped that he
controlled his quivering voice to calmly say, “I signed a contract for three years of labor, after which I
am free to leave without notification. I’m the secretary of the Qingfeng Bank, working in exchange for
compensation. How could I be mooching off you!?”
Even bound to a pole, Mi Bai insisted on debate, for he believed that the greatest principle in the world
is reason, and though captured, his own conscience was clean!
Upon hearing Mi Bai’s retort, Feng Dezheng became furious again and fiercely raised his whip to strike
him again.
“Smack! Smack! Smack!”
The scholar clenched his teeth without uttering a sound, his gaze at Feng Dezheng full of disdain for
such a petty man with no sense of reason.
Angered by the provocation, Feng Dezheng snapped, “Dig out his eyes! Dig them out!”
“Brother, calm down, calm down.” Gong Zheng stopped the few warriors about to step forward, and
dragged Feng Dezheng aside, attempting to pacify him.
“Brother, don’t lose your temper. This Mi Bai is just a scholar, good at rhetoric. Given that he selfishly
fled, it wouldn’t be excessive for you to kill him.
However, we still need him to handle our painting and calligraphy business. If someone can replace
him, I will definitely help you gouge out his eyeballs and strip his tongue to soothe your anger!”
Feng Dezheng sighed heavily, tossing the whip aside. “Little brother,” he said, “I’m sorry for what
happened because of him. You even lost your elite fighters due to his escape. But don’t worry, I
borrowed two teams of warriors from Feng family. We will avenge you today!”
Mentioning Wen Wei, Gong Zheng lowered his eyes as waves of grief seemed to surge within him.
With a somber voice, he replied: “Brother, I appreciate it. As long as the one who killed my brother
dares to appear at the Fox Immortal Temple, I will see to it that he doesn’t leave alive!”
The killing intent surged in his heart, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes!
Wen Wei was a faithful old comrade that had been with him since the beginning. Although an
inveterate gambler and a rogue at heart, he was completely loyal to him. He could not accept the fact
that his brother was killed just because of a mere scholar by an outsider’s hand.
This time, he had assembled the members of the Righteous Gang, aiming to avenge by beheading the
foreigner, hoping that they had not been tipped off and escaped.
“Boss, boss Feng. He’s here,” Qiu Jinglong entered the temple gate, reporting the latest news to the
two men.
Feng Dezheng raised his eyebrows and hissed, “Good! He dares to murder my brother’s subordinates,
he must be extremely audacious.”
With that, he took the lead and walked out with two teams of warriors.
Gong Zheng asked Qiu Jinglong, “How many people is he bringing?”
Qiu Jinglong looked puzzled and replied, “The fierce spirit beast is missing. However, he’s brought
along a teenager of about fifteen or sixteen. I’m not sure why.”
Gong Zheng nodded to indicate that he understood, and left the Fox Immortal Temple with Qiu
Jinglong.
Outside the temple gate, over a dozen warriors in the Mortal Realm stood in a semicircular formation,
glaring at the two approaching guests.
The young man with peach blossom eyes and a teenager around fifteen or sixteen stood outside the
temple gate, confronting Feng Derong.
Surprisingly, the weaker looking party was the one who first made a demand.
“Hand him over, and we’ll leave your bodies intact,” Xu Laoying shouted.
Feng Derong had lived a long time but had never encountered such a brazen young man. Angered, he
retorted, “You were the first to murder and you dare to speak so shamelessly. If you dare, state your
name!”
As external relatives to a family clan, they had their unique understanding of such matters, which was
to avoid conflict with other clans and keep their backers trouble-free. Therefore, it was crucial to ask for
their names.
As he was familiar with the surnames of major families in Xiling City, if the young man did not belong to
any of these clans, even if he was the son of another city lord, Feng Derong would not show him any
respect.
“I am Xu Laoying. Each time I see bullies like you, I obliterate them!” The young man full of murderous
intent said with a compelling tone.
Tang Luo stood beside him, feeling that his cousin had a unique conversation technique. With this kind
of conversation, he feared they would end up killing a few children first, so he planned to mitigate the
situation.
“We have already arrived, let us see the children first.” Tang Luo announced, subtly signaling Xu
Laoying.
Immediately understanding, Xu Laoying also exclaimed loudly, “Yes, let us see the children and the
scholar first.”
Feng Derong, who had been calm up until now, suddenly changed his face to one filled with murderous
and ferocious intent and pointed at the two of them, “Kill them, kill them!”
After careful consideration, he realized there were no Xu surnamed families in Xiling City, hence he
deduced the young man must be a lord’s son from another aristocratic family out on an adventure. He
promptly decided to take revenge on behalf of Gong Zheng’s subordinates by killing him.
The two teams he brought were martial artists of the Feng family clan, and they possessed a combined
attack technique. Together they could hold back even a top martial artist from the Fierce Realm, and
this was his biggest reliance now.
At the moment Feng Derong revealed his killing intent, Xu Laoying signaled for Tang Luo to retreat and
set his footwork, charging towards Feng Derong.
Capture the leader of the bandits first, and attack the enemy’s most critical point, this is an eternal
combat truth.
Xu Laoying fully released his Tongming Sword Body, the sword intent vibrating wildly in his Sea of
Consciousness, fusing intent and body, a series of powerful sword qi burst out of his body, pouring
towards the enemy!
The crimson sword qi was sharp and swift, like a streak of red light slashing through the air, piercing
through the chest of a warrior standing behind Feng Derong!
Thunder sword qi, representing divine punishment, roared towards a warrior. The warrior quickly
responded with a strike hoping to shatter the sword qi, but it was to no avail. The purple thunderbolt
instantly shattered the warrior’s resistance, piercing his protective ability, leaving a huge hole in his
chest.
The green wood sword qi, born of myriad woods, was a breathing sword qi. When it left his body, it was
only as thick as an arm, but within a few breaths, it thickened to waist size, striking a warrior attempting
to retreat. The warrior didn’t even have a chance to resist; his entire upper body was wiped out, and his
lower half fell weakly to the ground.
The sword qi of flowing water, the top-ranked formless substance, flew towards the warrior. It shattered
into threads under Lingli’s attack. The scattered sword qi didn’t dissipate, but scattered and flowed. The
threads seemed to turn into tiny swords, severing the throat of a warrior struggling to resist the sword
qi, blood pouring out.
There were also the blazing sun sword qi, profound moon sword qi, cold ice sword qi, and more sword
qi varieties, each targeting a warrior.
While Xu Laoying was rushing towards Feng Derong, his sword qi was sweeping horizontally and
vertically. The Transcendent Realm warriors were either dead or injured, no one could block his figure.
He was just a few steps away from his target. If there was no need for a captive, the enemy would have
already been torn apart.
Watching Xu Laoying getting closer and closer, Feng Derong’s legs trembled in fear, and a dark wet
patch appeared in his crotch. He had peed himself out of terror.
At this critical moment, the top of the Fox Immortal Temple burst open, exposing a hole with a blazing
edge. A golden and red fierce flame flood dragon rose to the sky from within the temple.
The flood dragon was composed entirely of fierce flames, its bright red color converged and mingled,
emitting dazzling golden light, as if it was another sun!
The golden flood dragon lowered its head, its eyes filled with fierceness, rushing straight towards the
young swordsman, with unparalleled swiftness!
“Dodge quickly!” Tang Luo who was watching the battle from a distance shouted, for he had recognized
this as the Transcendent Realm’s combined attack technique!
Python turns into a Flood Dragon!
