Chapter 70 The Death of Huang Dalang
Chapter 70 The Death of Huang Dalang
Inside the courtyard, Bai Xiang tidied up the vegetable garden and noticed Jiang Mu's clothes hanging on the bamboo frame.
She walked over, picked up the clothes, and went to the wooden basin by the well.
"Sister Xiang, let me wash you!"
Upon seeing this, Yuan Aqing, who had just finished practicing her stance training, quickly wiped her sweat and ran over, reaching out to take the wooden basin.
Bai Xiang shook her head, her slender fingers making a gesture in the air:
You go and cultivate, I'll wash you.
Yuan Aqing paused for a moment, somewhat puzzled.
Although Sister Xiang usually takes care of cooking and cleaning, she never touches the master's clothes.
Why the sudden change of heart today?
However, she was always obedient, and seeing that Bai Xiang insisted, she didn't think much of it and obediently went back to the sand to continue planting stakes.
Bai Xiang rolled up his sleeves, drew cool, clear water from the well, and poured it into a basin.
Just as he was about to reach out and rub it, his gaze suddenly sharpened, and he sighed softly:
"In the end, flies will still fly in."
"That's disgusting."
The woman flicked her finger lightly.
A drop of water leaps from the fingertip, crystal clear, tracing a mysterious arc in the air.
Go around the eaves, through the gaps in the leaves,
Like moonlight threading a needle, it silently penetrated the thick courtyard wall.
It precisely penetrated the body of the weasel demon that was about to burrow into its hole.
The little demon's body suddenly froze, and before it could understand what was happening, its body exploded.
The moment the blood mist splattered, it strangely rolled back and was drawn back in.
It condensed into a crimson blood sword the size of a thumb.
"Whoosh—"
The sword trembled slightly, trailing an invisible thread of cause and effect, which streaked through the air and headed straight for a certain place in the south of the city.
……
South of the city, a small courtyard.
Huang Dalang was lounging lazily in his armchair.
Huang Dalang, dressed in a crimson gauze dress, leaned back in his chair, one long leg casually draped over the armrest, his toes swaying slightly, his posture lazy and unrestrained.
There was another person inside the house.
It was none other than He Shuangying, the young master of the Divine Sword Sect.
Ever since Jiang Mu threatened to lead a search party for the Divine Sword Sect, He Shuangying has become a frightened bird.
He hurriedly reported back to his father and urgently shut down the demon-taming cave.
They cleaned inside and out, ready for anything.
They even swept away the chicken feathers from the cracks in the ground.
As a result, they waited and waited, but not only did they not see the large force of the Demon Slayer Division, they didn't even see a trace of Jiang Mu.
It was only at this moment that He Shuangying finally realized what was happening.
I have been tricked!
He was severely scolded by his father and then kicked out, ordered to meet with a demon to receive a batch of goods that could accelerate the hatching of the demon's nest, in order to make amends for his past mistakes.
And the monster that made the connection was Huang Dalang.
However, the original handover location was in Yancheng, but it has now been changed to Huzhou, which has made He Shuangying quite dissatisfied.
"I sent you to transport goods to Yancheng, and it's either windy or rainy. Are you kidding me?"
He Shuangying said coldly.
To avoid being exposed, he wore a disguise mask as his father ordered.
Even so, the usually meticulous young master He still chose a handsome face, coupled with the aristocratic air he had been raised since childhood. As soon as he entered the room, he attracted Huang Dalang's attention, and Huang Dalang crossed his legs several times.
"Oh dear, Young Master He, why are you so angry?"
Huang Dalang spoke in a soft, sweet voice.
"We initially chose Yancheng because it was chaotic enough. But now that the court has successfully quelled the rebellion, things are very tense. On the contrary, Huzhou City, being in the dark, is the safest place."
She leaned forward, her gauze dress slipping down to one shoulder:
"I have won over many people in Yancheng, and they are all willing to risk their lives for me. The goods have been safely stored away and will not be noticed by anyone."
He Shuangying snorted coldly: "Where exactly is the goods?"
"Don't rush."
Huang Dalang coiled around him like a snake, his breath as fragrant as orchids.
"I've long heard of Young Master He's extraordinary bearing, and seeing him today, my heart is trembling... If you're not busy, perhaps..."
He Shuangying remained unfazed:
"He was single-mindedly pursuing the Dao and had no interest in romantic love."
Even so, his hand had already wrapped around the succubus's slender waist, and he casually gave it a squeeze.
There's no way around it, this vixen is just too seductive.
Ever since Jiang Mu chopped up that "very, very bad" little fish demon, he had been holding back his anger.
Adding to the frustration of being tricked by Jiang Mu and scolded by her father, she needed an outlet right now.
"Seeking the Way?"
Upon hearing this, Huang Dalang chuckled merrily.
"Since Young Master He is a seeker of the Dao, wouldn't you like to understand the true meaning behind what I'm teaching?"
He Shuangying's lips curled into a mocking smile:
"Your great path has probably already been sought by thousands and crossed by tens of thousands."
"Young Master He, you are mistaken."
Huang Dalang, with seductive eyes, leaned close to his ear and breathed sweetly, "The great path is like fine wine; the more people taste it, the more mellow its flavor becomes."
He Shuangying suddenly grabbed her wrist:
"Let's get down to business. I heard you're going to raise the price; how exactly?"
"Why are you raising the price?"
Huang Dalang nestled into his arms, "If you'd be so kind as to keep me company and ease my boredom... what harm is there in not taking a single penny?"
He Shuangying smiled without saying a word.
Huang Dalang put away his fawning expression and said seriously, "Actually, I only want to ask the young master for a small favor."
"explain."
"To dismember a person's leg."
"Who?"
"Jiang Chen, the Eighth Hall Master of the Demon Slayer Division."
He Shuangying's pupils suddenly contracted.
Huang Dalang sighed softly and said helplessly:
"That boy killed my beloved younger brother. I originally intended to kill him myself, but my father sent an urgent letter ordering me to return immediately after the transaction and not to cause any further trouble."
I dare not act rashly now, for fear of revealing my whereabouts and ruining my father's grand plan. But I am unwilling to leave like this, so I want to find someone to teach that brat a lesson first.
"When I return next time, I will personally finish him off."
He Shuangying remained silent.
Nong Jiang Mu?
Of course he wants to!
But as they thought, those were officials from the Demon Slayer Bureau.
If things aren't done properly, the Divine Sword Sect will also get into trouble.
but……
A hint of arrogance flashed in He Shuangying's eyes.
If he really wanted to kill, he was absolutely certain of success.
Because he had already investigated and found out that the star position that Jiang Mu cultivated was the pseudo star official seal of the "Earthly Hidden Star"!
This sense of superiority immediately rose.
This means that as long as he stands in front of Jiang Mu, he can suppress her completely with just a thought and the power of the orthodox star position.
The opponent didn't even have the right to draw his sword in front of him.
They had no choice but to kneel down obediently!
The legitimate version's suppression of the counterfeit version is absolutely absolute.
He Shuangying even maliciously speculated that the guy's choice of the Hidden Earth Star might be aimed at him, trying to steal his star position.
But the possibility of this is zero.
If you want to take my star position, you must possess star power. But to possess a star position, you must prove your star position.
However, even if the false star position is proven, you will always be inferior to me.
No solution.
Unless that kid has star power but no star position.
But is that even possible?
Seeing that He Shuangying remained silent for a long time, Huang Dalang knew that this matter was difficult, so he smiled ingratiatingly again:
"Never mind, it's more important to discuss the Dao with the young master first."
She rose gracefully, her slender fingers unfastening her gauze dress. "All this fighting and killing is such a spoilsport."
He Shuangying's breathing became heavier.
Too lazy to engage in further negotiation, he ripped off his outer robe and laughed, "I am new to seeking the Dao, and I hope that you, Madam, will not hesitate to offer me guidance."
however.
At this critical moment.
A crimson beam of light burst through the window and instantly entered Huang Dalang's body.
"Boom—!!"
The blood mist exploded.
Huang Dalang's lower body instantly shattered, splattering all over He Shuangying.
The man was stunned.
What do you mean?
They blew up the road as soon as they arrived?
