The Feng Shui Treasure Appraiser

363: Chapter 363 Killing someone by destroying their spiritZhang Dahai stopped talking.

Because the number of people who had died at Zhang Dahai’s hands was simply too high, and there were countless cases of exterminated families. Although he might not have done it all personally, they were absolutely orchestrated by him.

Zhang Dahai was the mastermind behind so many tragedies; he had just hidden it quite well.

This was common knowledge.

Han Jingyang stared coldly at Zhang Dahai: ”Zhang Dahai, the law cannot sanction you. I know you have far too many scapegoats under your command, so no matter how they investigate, they can never pin it on you. That is why you have remained unscathed all these years. However, those who kill others will themselves be killed. Zhang Dahai, have you been living in comfort for too long that you truly believe there is no one in this world who can deal with you?”

Zhang Dahai lowered his head and said nothing.

Han Jingyang sneered again: ”So, what right do you have to beg for mercy? You want me to spare some of your bloodline? Do you deserve it? With all the things you have done, do you deserve to leave any descendants in this world?”

Zhang Dahai’s expression became even more dejected.

Han Jingyang dealt another blow: ”You don’t actually think your illegitimate children are truly innocent, do you? Zhang Dahai, you’re overthinking it. They are all complicit in the sins you have committed. That karma will sooner or later come back to haunt them. I only need to make a slight move to detonate that karma prematurely, and the outcome will be even more tragic than if I acted personally. Ultimately, it is because the karma you have accumulated yourself is too heavy. Zhang Dahai, with so many capable people around you, is it really the case that no one could see the thick resentment clinging to you?”

Zhang Dahai opened his mouth, but swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Han Jingyang sneered: ”It seems you’ve realized it now. It’s not that no one noticed, but that no one dared to act. Why? Because the resentment on you is far too heavy. An ordinary Feng Shui Master simply cannot resolve it, and even if they tried, they would invite backlash. Think about it from the other side: if the backlash weren’t so strong, those people under you wouldn’t have turned a blind eye; they would have scrambled to act and claim the credit. Tell me, isn’t that the truth?”

Zhang Dahai’s expression sank even further; he had been completely crushed by Han Jingyang’s words.

For an underworld overlord, there was truly nothing more cruel than the ”betrayal” of his subordinates.

Well, for someone like Zhang Dahai, his subordinates not actively helping to resolve disasters was a form of betrayal.

Such people often pride themselves on having immense personal charisma, confident that their subordinates are all loyal followers.

Only to discover in the end that these followers were not as loyal as imagined.

This kind of blow was enough to make someone like Zhang Dahai lose all hope.

Han Jingyang was in no rush, chipping away at Zhang Dahai’s confidence and self-esteem bit by bit. He analyzed Zhang Dahai from every angle, inside and out, and finally told him with cold, hard reality: ”Zhang Dahai, your life may seem glorious, but in reality, you have achieved nothing. Everything you touch fails, and in the end, you even implicated your entire family. Actually, if you ask me, this outcome was completely avoidable. As long as those metaphysics experts you supported had been willing to put in the effort and prepare early, even if they couldn’t completely resolve it, they could have minimized the resentment filling your body. It’s a pity you prided yourself on being invincible, but in reality, there isn’t even a single person truly willing to lay down their life for you. It’s pathetic.”

What is meant by ”killing the body, punishing the heart”? This was it.

Hearing this, Zhang Dahai could no longer hold back. He spat out a mouthful of blood, stumbled, and collapsed to the ground, struggling to crawl toward the Yellow River: ”Han Jingyang, kill me...”

Han Jingyang sneered: ”Kill you? That would be too easy on you. I want you to taste the feeling of being consumed by the flames of karma.”

”The flames of karma consuming your body?”

”Yes. The more sins you have committed, the heavier the karmic fire, and the more viciously it will burn. It’s only right to let you feel for yourself just how much sin you have accumulated over half a lifetime.”

As he finished speaking, he directly took out the karmic fire red lotus hand-piece and activated the karmic fire.

Zhang Dahai, who had been skeptical, suddenly let out a scream. His slightly chubby body instantly twisted like a shrimp in a deep fryer. His expression was agonizingly painful, and he screamed repeatedly, yet not a sound came out. It was because the pain was so intense that he had lost his voice; he could only make the motions of screaming, as the scream he wanted to let out instantly exceeded the limits of his throat.

Yet, in this state, he couldn’t even lose consciousness; he had to endure the feeling of being consumed by the karmic fire.

Han Jingyang didn’t know how painful it was to be consumed by the karmic fire, but watching Zhang Dahai’s miserable state, he could somewhat empathize with it.

In any case, it must be extremely painful.

The heavier the resentment on one’s body, the longer the karmic fire would burn.

Zhang Dahai was burned for a full hour before he slowly vanished.

Yang Jinyuan, standing to the side, was once again stunned.

Once again, she had witnessed something that only existed in legends here with Han Jingyang.

And the scene was almost exactly like the legends: using karma as fuel, the heavier the karma, the more viciously it burned. It couldn’t be extinguished or dispelled; once ignited, it would burn everything clean, leaving not a single scrap behind.

Terrifying! Shocking! Powerful! Mysterious!

Yang Jinyuan was so shocked by the scene before her that she turned into a wooden statue. She dared not move, fearing that she might accidentally get contaminated by the terrifying karmic fire. It wasn’t until Zhang Dahai was completely burned away that she quietly let out a sigh of relief. She turned her head and snuck a glance at Han Jingyang, then quickly retracted her gaze: ”Boss, what’s next... are we going to find Zhang Dahai’s bloodline?”

Han Jingyang stretched and shook his head: ”That Zhang fellow has at least a dozen illegitimate children scattered outside, many of whom Zhang Dahai himself might not even know about. How would I have the time to find them one by one? Besides, most of them are still young. Let’s just spare them; after all, I’m not some serial killer.”

Recalling the events of this night, Yang Jinyuan didn’t know how to respond to that for a moment.

Not a serial killer?

Her boss had personally killed at least three hundred enemies.

She, Liu Jing, and Shi Xiaoya had also killed several hundred people, and her boss had been present the entire time.

Yet her boss claimed he wasn’t a serial killer, which felt awkward no matter how she looked at it.

However, Yang Jinyuan didn’t care about that. If the boss said he wasn’t, then he wasn’t; even if he was, he wasn’t.

Shi Xiaoya, however, was somewhat worried: ”Honey, won’t leaving those brats behind become a hidden danger? When they grow up, they will definitely think about revenge. What if one of them turns out to be a ruthless character...”

Han Jingyang laughed easily: ”Who knows how long it will be until they are adults? By that time, would I even care about the revenge of a few measly brats? To put it bluntly, if I can easily destroy Zhang Dahai now, I will be able to destroy those brats even more easily in a few years. If they behave themselves, fine; but if they don’t, I can send them to the afterlife with a flick of my little finger. I won’t even need to do it myself; any one of you could handle it.”

Saying this, he bent down and picked up some odds and ends left behind by Zhang Dahai: ”Let’s go, let’s go back to sleep. With this trouble resolved, I can finally get a good night’s sleep.”

Shi Xiaoya chuckled: ”You’re settled, but others will probably be restless all night, and Quancheng will be in chaos for quite a while.”

”That has nothing to do with us,” Han Jingyang smiled: ”By the way, Xiaoya, do you remember that Li Laowu I asked you to investigate the other day?”

Shi Xiaoya nodded, filled with killing intent: ”I remember. Honey, are you getting ready to deal with that old guy?”

Han Jingyang shook his head: ”Don’t be so full of killing intent. We’re neighbors; we see each other all the time. But we can greet him and see how he reacts.”

”React?”

”Yes. What we did tonight can be called earth-shattering, but ordinary people really aren’t qualified to know about it. If Li Laowu continues to make things difficult for us, it means he is just an insignificant pawn. Conversely, if Li Laowu’s attitude changes, it means that Li Laowu is not simple either.” Han Jingyang said, with killing intent flashing across his eyes: ”I really want to see who exactly is obstructing me from building my house.”
