My father is a Confucian sage, but the system forces me to be a crude warrior

Chapter 418 Your great-grandfather is here!

Liu Shishi's face was full of disbelief.

She looked up at the man who had appeared out of nowhere.

Her small mouth opened wide, but she couldn't utter a single word.

Since that man appeared, she trembled slightly, and her throat felt as if something was blocking it.

The man had a cold expression, and just by standing there, he gave off a sense of distance that kept strangers at bay.

He was dressed in a black robe, his brows revealing a heroic air, and he looked almost too young.

He stood like a pine tree in the sky, standing shoulder to shoulder with Patriarch Guan, his aura no less imposing.

The moment he appeared, the entire sky seemed to lose its color because of his face.

"Now that you're here, I'll leave the three of them to you."

Guan Tiansheng was not surprised at all by the appearance of this person; a hint of relief appeared on his aged face.

With a single step, the entire space seemed to be drawn into it.

Like gravity, it pulls at the fluctuations of the surrounding space.

"Your cultivation level has increased again."

The young man frowned slightly, raised his aloof face, looked at Guan Tiansheng, and said in a calm voice:
"It shouldn't be long before you overcome the tribulation and become the supreme being of the world."

"Hehe, thanks to Master Shen's help in making medicine."

Guan Tiansheng smiled, finding Shen Tianshi's words extremely agreeable.

As a martial artist, I pursue this throughout my life.

That's the state of being I'm seeking.

Now, he is only one step away from that realm.

"Now is not the time to talk about that."

Guan Tiansheng glanced at the three people on the ground.

"Ah."

The young man responded.

With that, he drifted away into the distance alone.

Condescending.

His eyes were only for Liu Shishi.

In his opinion, only Liu Shishi was worthy of speaking to him among the three.

When Liu Shishi saw him float over, she just stared at him blankly, her face full of complicated emotions.

He was also looking at Liu Shishi.

The two looked at each other for a long time.

His cool, clear voice rang out:

"Junior Sister Liu."

"You're going to kill them both, then come with me."

The young man simply gazed at Liu Shishi with a detached expression.

Liu Shishi opened her mouth slightly.

She had so much to say, but her mind was in turmoil, and she didn't know what to say or even how to say it at this moment.

"Time is running out, you need to hurry," the young man sighed softly.

Liu Shishi shook her head with a complicated expression.

Just as she was about to speak, a voice rang out.

"Guan Tiansheng!!"

Sun Chuanfang stood on the ground, his aged face making him look ten years older.

At this moment, his eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the two people who had appeared in the sky, his eyes wide with rage, his voice filled with hatred:
"You all deserve to die!!"

"A villain?! There's no such thing as a villain!!"

“Those…those grains…”

His gaze was fixed on the two-mile-long pit that had been buried by rocks that had rolled down from the mountain.

My body is trembling:

"That's...the lives of a million disaster victims in the city!!"

"How dare you!!"

"Guan Tiansheng, you traitor! Traitor! Villain!!"

As he spoke, he staggered, step by step, toward the giant pit.

"Pfft~"

He knelt on the ground.

With trembling hands, he scooped up a handful of broken stones.

"Food...food..."

Ignoring the blood streaming down his hands from the sharp pebbles, he scooped up handfuls of stones...

"These are all lives, living, breathing lives..."

……

Liu Shishi clenched her fists tightly.

Dongfang Sheng dared not speak.

He timidly hid behind Liu Shishi, clutching the purse covered in sweat tightly in his hand.

He didn't even dare to breathe deeply.

Guan Tiansheng slowly looked at Sun Chuanfang.

He is not angry.

At his current level, other people's words can no longer sway his emotions.

He simply lowered his head, looking at Sun Chuanfang as if he were looking at a beast.

The voice drifted toward the young man beside him, urging him on:
"Kill them quickly."

……

"Oh!"

At this point, Dongfang Sheng no longer harbored any illusions.

He knelt on the ground, his face deathly pale:

"Ancestor Guan..."

"My ancestor, please spare my life."

"Please don't kill me!"

"I...I..." He clutched the blue purse tightly in his hand.

"I can't die, Niu Niu is only five years old... Her mother died young, what will happen to her if I die..."

The eight-foot-tall man was now in tears, his lips trembling.

"Boom bang bang."

He was a martial artist and didn't know what to say at this moment.

It was just one person kowtowing.

"Do not kill me……"

He suddenly looked up, as if he had remembered something.

His eyes gazed hopefully at the arrogant, aged figure in the sky:
"I...I'm willing to commit suicide!"

"Ancestor Guan! I am willing to commit suicide!"

"I know I shouldn't be here today. I can't live. I have to shut up! I know all that!"

"I only ask that you take pity on me because I'm so sensible."

"Please have mercy and take care of my little girl..."

He raised his trembling hand and offered the blue purse:
"Give this to Niu Niu and tell her that her father died in an accident, he wasn't a bad person..."

He pursed his lips tightly.

His body was trembling.

……

Sun Chuanfang stopped digging at the rocks.

Hearing Dongfang Sheng's words, he couldn't help but look up.

His teeth were chattering, and a long-dormant glint of light appeared in his cloudy eyes.

He simply closed his eyes in despair, unwilling to hear such sounds any longer.

Parents' hearts are always full of love and worry!
This scene was like a needle, piercing his heart.

"Ah."

Guan Tiansheng spoke expressionlessly, his eyes devoid of any emotion.

Dongfang Sheng's words did not cause any disturbance in his heart.

His eyes were already showing signs of impatience as he slowly raised his hand, aiming it at Dongfang Sheng:

"Noisy."

"boom!"

After a sound.

The pleas for mercy abruptly ceased.

A martial artist at the fifth-rank Grandmaster level.

In front of a second-rank patriarch, he was no better than an ordinary person.

Dongfang Sheng died without even a drop of blood splattering.

His entire body turned to dust.

“Pada~”

Only a blue purse remained, which was bounced off Liu Shishi's feet by the blast wave.

Liu Shishi's body trembled violently.

She slowly squatted down, picked up the blue purse, and clutched it tightly.

……

"And you."

Guan Tiansheng looked calmly at Sun Chuanfang and slowly raised his hand.

Sun Chuanfang was fearless.

He looked at Guan Tiansheng.

A sense of relief arose in my heart.

Those who commit many unrighteous acts will surely perish.

"Don't worry, you bastard surnamed Guan, you're going to die!"

A cold smile crept across his aged face:
"Moreover, the women of Xuanlun Manor will be prostitutes for generations, and the men will be slaves for generations!"

"Oh." Upon hearing this, Guan Tiansheng's eyes grew even colder.

He suddenly withdrew the martial arts aura from his hands.

A cold smile slowly curled at the corner of his lips: "I'm going to choose a different way for you to die."

As he spoke, a bright golden light flashed in his eyes.

"Chirp!" The golden light shot into Sun Chuanfang's eyes.

Sun Chuanfang's body trembled violently.

Then, his eyes became completely blank.

Like a foolish child, standing still.

Guan Tiansheng smiled, then tapped his finger lightly again.

"Click~"

The light passed by.

Sun Chuanfang's leg was cleanly severed from the thigh!

"Oh!"

His body involuntarily began to wriggle on the ground.

Pain appeared on his foolish face.

"Go."

“Go dig up those rubble, don’t stop until you die.” Guan Tiansheng’s voice was devoid of any emotion.

When Sun Chuanfang heard Guan Tiansheng's words, it was as if a machine had received a command from its master.

His face was contorted in pain, but he used his hands to claw at the ground, inching his way toward the pile of rubble.

His mangled body left a long trail of thick blood on the ground.

After a difficult journey, we finally reached the rubble.

“Pada~”

He blankly stretched out his trembling hand and scraped off a piece of gravel.

“Pada~”

The second piece, the third piece...

……

The young man in the air simply watched all of this with indifference.

His body was positioned between Liu Shishi and Guan Tiansheng.

There was a faint feeling that he was protecting Liu Shishi behind him.

"As for her, I can spare her life."

Guan Tiansheng smiled faintly and looked up at the young man:

"But you must promise that she will never speak again for the rest of her life."

"I know."

The young man nodded slightly, then gently extended his hand.

"Whoosh!"

A wisp of blue energy shimmered from between his fingers.

The next moment, the blue light transformed into a thread and wrapped around Liu Shishi.

"Well!"

Liu Shishi's body was entangled by the blue silk thread, making her unable to move.

It was as if some kind of curse had been placed on his mouth, preventing him from speaking.

"Let's go back to the villa first."

"Only one last step remains."

…………

Time passed little by little.

The sun is moving westward.

The sky gradually darkened.

"boom!!"

A very powerful hissing sound rang out.

It suddenly exploded in this mountain stream.

Zeng Anmin finally appeared.

"Am I... too late?"

He looked down at the apocalyptic scene below, his face grim and ugly.

He practically gave it his all to fly the entire way.

It must have been really tough on him.

A martial artist who has just learned to fly has to travel so desperately.

Without stopping for a moment, he covered a five-hour journey in less than two hours!

Even so, we were still too late.

“Pada~”

The sound of shattering stones rang out.

His ears twitched suddenly.

Then he looked in a certain direction.

A dwarf... no! Not a dwarf! A half-man?!
Zeng Anmin's expression suddenly changed.

"Chirp!!"

He suddenly plummeted down.

"Lord Sun!!"

Zeng Anmin's eyes were bloodshot!
He saw Sun Chuanfang, whose two legs had been severed!

“Pada~”

Sun Chuanfang stood there blankly, his face blank, slowly rummaging through the fragments buried under the boulder on the ground.

His face was now deathly pale.

My lips are dry and cracked.

The heart almost stopped beating.

It was only his body's instinct that drove him to pull at the pebbles on the ground.

"Lord Sun! How are you?!"

Zeng Anmin's face was extremely ugly. He squatted on the ground and reached out to infuse his hands with martial arts energy.

The moment the martial arts aura entered Sun Chuanfang's body, his expression darkened.

This injury is beyond saving, even by a miracle.

Fortunately, the unknown substance sustained him until his last breath.

Zeng Anmin kept calling out to Sun Chuanfang:
"Lord Sun, Lord Sun!"

But Sun Chuanfang was like a machine, unmoved by his words, just blankly picking through the fragments.

Zeng Anmin pursed his lips together.

"I'm sorry, Lord Sun."

A golden glint shone in his eyes:
"Sun Chuanfang!!"

"Om!!"

Sun Chuanfang's body trembled violently, and then he stared blankly at Zeng Anmin.

Confucianism and Taoism: Ask your heart!
"Sun Chuanfang, do you remember what happened?"

"Liu Shishi, Dongfang Sheng, and the grain transport convoy...where are they all..."

Zeng Anmin looked at Sun Chuanfang.

Sun Chuanfang's face remained blank.

He opened his mouth, but his throat felt like it was blocked by something.

Zeng Anmin's heart sank.

Fortunately, his cultivation level of the third grade of extreme Confucianism and Taoism was much stronger than before, and his realm of questioning the mind was also much stronger than before.

The crimson Confucian and Taoist aura spontaneously transformed into a ball of light, heading towards the depths of Sun Chuanfang's throat.

After a while.

"Guan Tiansheng, Liu San Niang's senior brother."

The swords, as black as rust, clashed, and Sun Chuanfang's voice rang out:
"Guan Tiansheng killed Dongfang Sheng."

"Kill everyone, bury the grain..."

He answered mechanically.

"We've taken Liu Shishi back to Xuanlun Manor..."

Upon hearing this, Zeng Anmin's eyes narrowed sharply, a piercing glint in them.

"Clap~"

Sun Chuanfang's blood-stained, bone-exposed hand rested on Zeng Anmin's hand.

Zeng Anmin was taken aback.

"Dig...dig for grain...save, save the disaster victims..."

Sun Chuanfang gripped Zeng Anmin's hand tightly, while his other hand mechanically dug through the rubble.

“A purse…for Niu Niu…Dongfang Sheng’s daughter…”

At that moment, a light seemed to appear in Sun Chuanfang's eyes.

He stared intently at Zeng Anmin.

Those eyes were filled with hope.

Zeng Anmin clenched his teeth tightly, his lips almost bloodless.

"Ok!"

He was somewhat hesitant to meet Sun Chuanfang's gaze at that moment.

But his head nodded heavily, almost instinctively:

"I will definitely save these disaster victims!"

"They will also kill Guan Tiansheng and Shen Nian."

His voice was firm.

"Hehe...hehe..."

Upon hearing Zeng Anmin's words, Sun Chuanfang smiled.

A glaring smile.

"Thud~" His hand fell limply onto the gravel.

He died completely.

He is Sun Chuanfang.

This official, who lived a life of integrity, did not die peacefully.

Looking at his body.

Zeng Anmin's expression was incredibly complex.

He could almost hear the words Sun Chuanfang had once said to him.

"Salaries are not bestowed by heaven; every grain of rice is the people's hard-earned money. There are no trivial matters in being an official; the well-being of the people is as important as the fate of the nation."

After a long while, Zeng Anmin slowly got up.

He bowed deeply to the blood-stained body on the ground.
"I respectfully bid farewell to Lord Sun. May you have a safe journey."

"After the powerful minister has eliminated the traitors, he will return to collect your body."

…………

Xuanlun Manor.

This is a very large mountain villa!

It's outrageously large.

Deepest part of the mountain villa.

“Sun Chuanfang and Dongfang Sheng embezzled disaster relief funds, keeping all the money that should have been used to buy grain. Fortunately, after you found out, you personally came out of the village and executed the two of them.”

"But the provisions and pay have already been transferred by these two people, and their whereabouts are unknown."

"Now all the disaster victims are cursing Sun Chuanfang."

Someone respectfully reported this to Guan Tiansheng.

Guan Tiansheng's indifferent voice rang out: "Step down."

"Yes," someone replied respectfully and then withdrew.

…………

"Master Shen." Guan Tiansheng sat cross-legged on the futon, his eyes closed.

"You speak," the young man's indifferent voice rang out.

"Prepare yourselves. Just wait until tonight, when those worldly emotions will be brewing, and I will be able to break through to the first rank."

"It's time to put the dragon vein to use. We can't let His Majesty down."

"Hmm." The young man nodded lightly.

But the next moment.

The two looked up almost simultaneously, gazing in a certain direction in the sky.

"who?!!"

"Your great-grandfather!!"

The voice was extremely cold and stern.
