I Have No Qualifications, The System Asked Me To Marry A Wife To Practice
Chapter 31: The Death Of Young Master Zhou
Chu Shen was muttering about Zhou Gongzi, while Zhou Gongzi was also thinking about Chu Shen.
"This stranger from a foreign land has some ability."
Throwing away the report in his hand, he pinched his brow and felt a bit of a headache.
Contrary to the angry rumors from the outside world, the elderly couple next to the Chu family were genuine rebels. The so-called granddaughter recuperating in the village outside the city was completely a trap.
When the subordinates he sent with soldiers went to the "village," they were intercepted halfway. If it weren't for the fact that his subordinates' strength exceeded the rebels' expectations, there might have been a major defeat.
As for the elderly couple, they were executed on the spot by his subordinates. The rumors that have emerged from the outside world are just because the news couldn't be suppressed.
The clue to the rebels was thus cut off.
He didn't want to miss out on this great achievement, and he really had his eye on Chu Shen. How could the people living around the rebels' stronghold, including Chu Shen, be completely innocent?
Moreover, someone with the surname Chu actually had such a profitable prescription. Even he was tempted and wanted to get his hands on it.
Unfortunately, the fact that Yufu Lu had almost everyone in Nanping City standing on Chu Shen's side made Zhou Gongzi, who looked down on this poor and remote place, have to consider the consequences of being opposed by the entire city, especially when the county magistrate and others were standing on Chu Shen's side.
He only brought four guards with him. This godforsaken place had just experienced a rebellion, and he had no doubt that when he cut off the locals' source of wealth, they would make him sit on a "dirt plane" and then blame the rebels.
Is this really the end, leaving in disappointment?
Still hesitating, suddenly a flash of yellow appears before my eyes.
I look up and see a woman dressed in yellow, with exceptional grace and a veil covering her face, standing proudly in the hall.
"Who are you?" Young Master Zhou's heart skips a beat as he draws his sword.
Although he only brought four guards, they are all cultivators. Three of them are at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and the strongest one has reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, comparable to the pinnacle of martial arts masters in the mortal world.
In the circle of cultivators, they are nothing special, but in the mortal world, they are undoubtedly top-tier warriors.
Not to mention that there is a military stationed outside his mansion, with strict security.
But this woman has not alarmed anyone and has come directly in front of him. Her strength definitely surpasses what he is capable of!
Young Master Zhou's forehead breaks out in sweat, feeling extremely uneasy.
The woman in yellow, with her veil covering her face, gracefully picks up the Chu Shen dossier that Young Master Zhou had thrown down and slowly examines it. "You cunning little bastard, for the sake of credit, you spare no one unrelated. Truly worthy of being the scum taught by Zhou Quan, that dog."
Zhou Quan, the commander of the Jin Yi envoy of the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty, is notorious for his arrogance, corruption, and cruel torture. He stirs up trouble in the court, abuses his power, and is both despicable and untouchable.
Just because this guy is good at pleasing others and is a loyal lackey of the Immortal Dynasty's emperor, the emperor turns a blind eye to his actions, leaving others helpless.
Clearly, the yellow-clothed masked woman deeply hates Zhou Quan. Despite her elegant appearance, she doesn't hesitate to use vulgar language.
Zhou Gongzi's face turns red with anger, but he is restrained by the invisible power of the other side and dare not act recklessly.
He understands very well that the person who has come must be a cultivator, and a highly accomplished female cultivator at that. Moreover, she is on the side that hates his adoptive father, making his situation extremely dangerous!
"Miss, I always act in accordance with the law, but I enforce it strictly. I will not harm the innocent, but I will never let the guilty go unpunished. That's all."
Upon hearing his words, the yellow-clothed masked woman laughs, "Trash like you talking about abiding by the law, it's just a joke. This joke is good, it can make you die more quickly. Because every moment you live, I feel that it's a tragedy for this world."
Zhou Gongzi is shocked and pale. He swings his sword while shouting, "Assassin!"
However, his voice cannot even leave the hall. An invisible force intercepts all of his sound.
The yellow-clothed masked woman ignores his resistance and simply waves her sleeve. A cold light flashes from it, brushing against Zhou Gongzi's neck, and then returns to the woman's sleeve.
Zhou Gongzi wants to say something, but he realizes that his head is rolling on the ground, and he even sees his own body still standing.
The yellow-clothed masked woman snorts, "Deserved punishment!"
The figure disappeared immediately, leaving no trace in a short while. Only the terrified heads remained, staring in the direction of their own bodies, unable to return to where they should have stayed.
The courtyard where Zhou Gongzi resided was also quiet, until the guards outside noticed a faint smell of blood emanating from it. Realizing that something had happened, they rushed in and discovered that Zhou Gongzi and his four powerful bodyguards had all been killed, their heads severed.
This incident caused a sensation among the high-ranking officials in Nanping City, and the county magistrate did not dare to delay, quickly reporting the matter.
For a while, Nanping City, along with its subordinate state government, was in a state of panic due to the murder of the Jin Yi envoy. However, no one knew that Chu Shen had inadvertently gotten rid of a trouble.
Chu Shen, of course, didn't know who did it, but he could only say, "Well done."
Because news came secretly from Zhao Hu Fen Cao, informing him of Zhou Gongzi's plot against him.
Now that Zhou Gongzi and his four bodyguards were all dead, it was certainly a major event for the county magistrate. Even his official hat might not be able to be kept. But for Chu Shen, it was like a venomous snake lurking in the dark that hadn't had a chance to harm others before being killed by its natural enemy.
Because of this, he had the Hu Chuan Shan and others undergo additional training.
Although Zhou Gongzi was dead, the improvement in strength could not be delayed at all!
That night, he finally kicked open the door, breaking through to the fourth level of Qi Refining!
