Cultivating in Different Professions

Chapter 181: Chapter 130: Slay

THUD! THUD!

With sounds like watermelons splattering on the ground, the heads of the Corpse Demons rolled to the floor one by one, followed by their headless bodies collapsing.

A full eight Corpse Demons were decapitated by a single slash from Su Mu’s saber.

Before Hu Guangshao could even react, the Thunder Shocking Saber was already pressed against his neck. The chill of the blade sent a shiver down his spine, raising goosebumps on his skin.

The sound of the xun came to an abrupt halt.

”Excellent!”

Feng Zhengqian shouted, clapping his hands in approval.

His shout attracted the attention of the dazed Corpse Demons.

Without the xun’s music to control them, they could only act on instinct.

A Corpse Demon’s instinct is to crave blood. Feng Zhengqian was already wounded, and the scent of his fresh blood instantly drew several Corpse Demons, which lunged at him.

Terrified, Feng Zhengqian scrambled on all fours to hide behind Luo Anning.

”Eldest Young Master Hu, make them stop.”

Su Mu said, his voice cold.

Trembling, Hu Guangshao raised the bone xun to his lips and blew a few notes.

The Corpse Demons immediately froze in place, swaying where they stood like puppets with their strings cut.

However, the few Red-haired Corpse Demons had pained expressions, as if fighting against the xun’s music. They struggled to inch forward, the allure of Feng Zhengqian’s blood seemingly stronger than the control of the tune.

But their movements were slow and no longer posed a threat.

Feng Zhengqian let out a long sigh of relief. He popped an Elixir into his mouth and, clutching the wound on his abdomen, walked up to Hu Guangshao.

SLAP!

He struck Hu Guangshao across the face.

”You bastard! You actually tried to kill me? You’ve got a death wish!”

Feng Zhengqian cursed, ”Just you wait. When I get back, I’ll make sure not even a chicken or dog of the Hu Family is left alive!

”No, I’ll kill all the men and sell all the women to brothels. The women of your Hu Family will be passed around by a thousand men, sampled by ten thousand!”

Feng Zhengqian landed more than a dozen slaps on Hu Guangshao’s face in rapid succession. Although Feng Zhengqian was severely injured and weak, he was still a Blood Transformation Realm Martial Artist. The flurry of blows left Hu Guangshao’s face black and blue, swollen like a pig’s head.

Even Hu Gongxiu probably wouldn’t have recognized him.

Hu Guangshao gritted his teeth, not making a sound, his eyes filled with overwhelming hatred.

”You still dare to glare at me?”

Feng Zhengqian kicked Hu Guangshao in the stomach, sending him sprawling to the ground. ”Don’t worry,” he snarled, ”I won’t let you die just yet. I’ll make you watch what happens to the Hu Family. Trying to kill me? I’ll make you regret it!”

”Envoy Feng, we shouldn’t linger here. If you want to teach him a lesson, it’s best we leave first,”

Su Mu said lightly.

After the xun’s music stopped, the Corpse Demons began to stir restlessly again.

”You’re right. Captain Su, you did well this time. I won’t forget your contribution. I’ll be sure to request a handsome reward for you when we get back.”

Feng Zhengqian said, ”And Captain Luo, when we get back, I’ll send someone to Wuling City with a marriage proposal. You won’t have to be a Taiping Captain anymore. You’ll be the Young Madam of my Feng Family, enjoying a life of luxury and splendor. In the future, you’ll be the Shennong Hundred Herbs Sect’s Sect Master’s Wife!”

He grabbed Hu Guangshao and started running toward the tunnel, still talking as he went.

Su Mu: ”...”

Luo Anning: ”...”

The two of them had been fending off the pursuing Corpse Demons.

Feng Zhengqian’s words made them instinctively turn to glance at him.

Luo Anning blinked, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

”Are you talking to me?”

Luo Anning asked, looking slightly bewildered.

”Is there another woman here? Ordinary women aren’t worthy of me, Feng Zhengqian. They’re only fit to be my playthings.

”You’re different. You saved me.”

Feng Zhengqian said, ”Although your qualifications are a bit lacking, you saved me. That’s enough to qualify you to be my woman.”

Luo Anning’s expression had been calm, but when she heard Feng Zhengqian use the word ’playthings,’ clear anger and contempt flashed across her face.

”Scum!”

Luo Anning said coldly.

”Pah!”

Still not satisfied, she spat again in disgust.

The expression on Feng Zhengqian’s face froze, replaced by utter disbelief.

’This woman actually dares to curse at me?’

’Doesn’t she know that marrying me is a blessing she earned in her past life?’

”You—you—”

Feng Zhengqian was so enraged that the wound in his abdomen throbbed with pain, making it difficult for him to even speak properly.

”She said you’re scum.”

Su Mu said, then decapitated a lunging Corpse Demon with a backhanded slash of his saber.

”Hahaha!”

Hu Guangshao laughed manically. ”Feng Zhengqian, do you see? Now you know how arrogant these two are.

”They don’t give a damn about you!

”So what if you wipe out my Hu Family?

”They’ve seen you at your most pathetic. In their eyes, you’ll forever be nothing more than a buffoon!

”You can never recover from this!

”Unless you kill them!”

Hu Guangshao’s face was a mask of insanity.

Feng Zhengqian’s expression flickered.

”Senior Brother Feng, you still have a chance! If we join forces, we can definitely kill them both right here! After it’s done, you can kill me or torture me, I’ll be at your mercy!”

Hu Guangshao said.

The group had already entered the tunnel. Feng Zhengqian was at the front, dragging Hu Guangshao, while Su Mu and Luo Anning followed several yards behind, holding off the pursuers.

”Senior Brother Feng, this is your only chance. Once we’re out of this cave, you won’t be able to do anything to them.”

Hu Guangshao urged, his eyes frantic. ”Are you willing to let them laugh at you for the rest of your life?

”While they’re busy with the Corpse Demons, let me go! I have a way to make sure they die here!”

Feng Zhengqian’s expression shifted, and a flicker of temptation appeared in the depths of his eyes.
