Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 248 I'm in the right, I'm not afraid!
"Borrowing coupons..." On the street, Xu Congwen's mind was a complete blank. Faced with the question from the person in front of him, he was utterly unable to respond effectively.

The main problem was that this group of people just barged in, shouting that they owed money and wouldn't pay it back, and that they actually had a loan agreement.

Without even seeing clearly, he came up and punched himself repeatedly, then dragged his wife away.

"That man has a fake voucher in his arms." Xu Congwen's mind immediately flashed, and he decisively pointed to the servant who had previously used the fake voucher to slander him.

"They forced me to sign, and the vermilion ink mark was still moist."

As Xu Congwen spoke, he gave a thumbs-up, which indeed had a red cinnabar mark on it.

Upon seeing this, Chu Danqing reached out and rummaged around for a while, and immediately found the loan voucher. Upon closer inspection, he confirmed that the vermilion seal was newly printed.

However, the date recorded on it was three years ago.

Fang Chen, the little tyrant on the other side, saw this scene and anger appeared in his eyes.

Fang Chen used brute force to forcibly pull the steel crescent halberd from Da Bao's hand.

"Nonsense!" Fang Chen retorted angrily. "My Fang family is a large and wealthy family. How could we slander a mere scholar like you over twelve taels of silver?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Congwen's mind became even more active, and he immediately retorted, "Hmph, if it's 1,200 taels of silver, I really can't come up with that."

"But how could twelve taels of silver be owed in arrears?"

“Your family, even when you’re slandering someone, you should at least have some sense of propriety.” Xu Congwen came from a scholarly family, so how could he not afford such a small amount of money?

On the contrary, for those servants, twelve taels was an astronomical figure.

Fang Chen ignored Xu Congwen and stared intently at Chu Danqing.

Right now, he wants to take his men away. Xu Congwen is not the problem at all; the real problem is Chu Danqing.

From beginning to end, the Fang family never had their eye on Xu Congwen's wife. She was just a woman; the Fang family was so wealthy and powerful that they could have any woman they wanted.

Why resort to robbery?

What they were after was the Nine-Star Ring Moon Halberd, a magical beast manual possessed by Xu Congwen's wife.

To this end, they spared no effort in bribing officials at all levels, and even had their elder brother bear the infamous reputation of being a womanizer as a cover.

Unexpectedly, things still took an unexpected turn.

If he obtains this spirit beast chart, his steel crescent halberd will be able to advance even further, and he might even be able to compete with the heroes of the world in the future.

Therefore, he had been protecting them all the way, and it was not a chance encounter.

As for the issue of twelve taels? It was done on purpose to steer the winds toward lustful actions.

Otherwise, if you were to fill in a figure of one hundred or eighty taels, it would be too perfect and would arouse suspicion.

"Brother, I..." Fang Chen began to explain.

Since he was no match for this strange spirit beast, the best thing he could do was to find a way to prevent Chu Danqing from interfering.

"No, I can't accept the title of 'brother' from you." Chu Danqing immediately interrupted, not wanting to hear any explanation from the other party: "With the power of your Fang family, reporting to the authorities will definitely be useless."

"So I'll send you on your way." Chu Danqing didn't have time to wait for him to face legal punishment.

I have other things to take care of.

So it's easier to just kill them directly.

Besides, if they really wanted to hand him over to the authorities, they probably would have delivered him there at night, had dinner with him, and then released him.

The fact that the other party dared to attack in the street shows that they were fearless and had nothing to fear.

"You!!!" Fang Chen was both shocked and furious. He hadn't expected Chu Danqing to actually take action.

However, before he could even question him, Da Bao's claws were already aimed at his neck, the power of blood rage materializing.

He quickly raised his steel crescent halberd to block.

But this time it was different from before. With a single swipe of its claws, Fang Chen's steel crescent halberd was immediately severed in two.

Its claws, undiminished in power, pierced through Fang Chen's chest.

"No, you can't kill me! My brother-in-law is..." Fang Chen felt excruciating pain, his face contorted in agony, and fear drove him to roar uncontrollably.

However, before he could finish speaking, he was killed by Da Bao with a single claw.

Chu Danqing didn't care who the other party's brother-in-law was. He had the ability, so how could he be timid and hesitant?

Such arrogant and domineering behavior is certainly not the first time.

He had no intention of dealing with each issue one by one; with his strength, he didn't need to hesitate or be indecisive.

"Murder! Murder!!!" Upon seeing this, someone shouted, and the surrounding people scattered like birds and beasts.

Chu Danqing didn't care and casually tossed the corpse aside.

Their gazes turned to Xu Congwen and the other person.

"Thank you very much, my benefactor." Xu Congwen said with a complicated expression, "Fang Chen's brother-in-law is a military officer in the prefectural city. You killed him, my benefactor. Now this matter is very serious."

"Please leave Guanglu Prefecture as soon as possible to save your life." As a local, Xu Congwen naturally knew the power and influence of this prefecture.

However, Chu Danqing shook his head: "What's there to be afraid of? At worst, we can just uproot it."

If you don't have the strength, you should definitely run away, but he already has the strength, so why should he back down?

He's right, and he's not afraid!
What? The other party's crime doesn't warrant the death penalty? Human traffickers can be killed however they want.

The people present were shocked when they heard this.

They thought Fang Chen was arrogant enough, but they didn't expect you to be even more arrogant, actually thinking of wiping out your entire family.

"On the contrary, what are your plans?" Chu Danqing asked. "Tonight we'll find a safe place, and tomorrow morning we'll leave the city to go to Yunyu Prefecture to stay with relatives." Xu Congwen also knew that he couldn't stay in Guanglu Prefecture.

Chu Danqing found this statement reasonable.

If the city gates are closed, there's no way to get out.

As for Chu Danqing helping them fight their way out, let's forget about that.

They have no immediate plans to rebel.

"Alright, you two will stay with me tonight, and I'll send you out of the city tomorrow morning," Chu Danqing said.

The Fang family isn't in a hurry to deal with this; they should first find out what other evil deeds they've committed, and then kill them one by one.

As the saying goes, "You can run away from the monk but you can't hide from the temple." They might come to kill him tonight, which would save Chu Danqing some trouble.

Upon hearing this, Xu Congwen hesitated for a moment, but ultimately agreed: "Then I thank you very much, my benefactor."

After saying that, Chu Danqing led them back to Heyang Tower.

Upon seeing this, the manager of Heyanglou also came forward to greet them.

"Gentlemen, my shop is small and I can't afford to offend you, Captain. You see," said the owner of Heyanglou. He certainly wouldn't dare to offend the local bullies since he ran a shop in Guanglu Prefecture.

Upon hearing this, Chu Danqing narrowed his eyes: "Fine, but I won't pay for the food and drinks."

You're trying to kick out customers and still expect them to pay? You're dreaming.

"It's my fault for not providing adequate service." The manager of Heyanglou dared not ask Chu Danqing, such a powerful figure, for money.

The local tyrant was quick to kill, so how could a small shopkeeper like him dare to say no?

Chu Danqing didn't make things difficult for the other party, but instead left with his people.

"Brother Chu, do you regret this? Not only did you miss the opportunity, but you also caused trouble for nothing," Yang Qianyuan asked curiously.

"What's there to regret?" Chu Danqing said nonchalantly, then asked, "What exactly is this 'opportunity' you're talking about?"

"I don't know, but one thing is certain: Brother Chu, you are no longer destined for it," Yang Qianyuan said regretfully, then explained.

"This divination of heavenly secrets is not omniscient or omnipotent. What I can see are only fragments and clues, and I cannot see the whole picture. How can I know the whole story?"

He knew there were limitations; if he could see everything, wouldn't he be invincible?

This information gap alone is enough to make the Celestial Mystery-type spirit beasts invincible.

"If I gain it, I am fortunate; if I lose it, it is my fate." Chu Danqing said, "Opportunity is not life, and it is not worth me lowering my bottom line."

Upon hearing this, Xu Congwen and his wife exchanged glances, seemingly communicating with each other.

However, the two of them were behind Chu Danqing and Yang Qianyuan, and the two of them were chatting and did not notice them.

The group quickly found a place to stay in the city, an abandoned and dilapidated house.

"You two will stay here for the night. Oh, I forgot to treat your injuries." Chu Danqing then realized that Xu Congwen and his wife still had injuries.

As he spoke, Da Bai used the single-target healing spell, Spirit Healing, to treat the patient.

One hit to the head, plus multiple spells, and the healing overflowed, and the injuries were all healed.

The couple's physical condition is average, and it usually takes them from 7 to 9 o'clock.

Fang Chen was slightly stronger, around 20 points, probably due to the enhancement from his weapon, spirit beast, and steel crescent halberd.

On the contrary, Yang Qianyuan was quite remarkable that the opponent's Heavenly Mystery type spirit beast was able to give him 15 attribute points.

However, this is normal, since the other party's father is able to possess the Heavenly Pool Dragon, a spirit beast of the Heavenly Mystery type.

After he recovered, Xu Congwen finally spoke: "I will never forget your life-saving grace."

"Congwen is now penniless and has nothing to repay me with."

"This young man had previously said that his benefactor missed a great opportunity in order to save the two of us."

“My wife has a family heirloom of a scroll of mythical beast illustrations, which she wishes to give to my benefactor as a token of gratitude and to compensate for what he has lost.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Qianyuan looked as if he had seen a ghost. What a bizarre development!

Chu Danqing refused without even thinking.

"No need, I didn't save people for anything in return," Chu Danqing said bluntly.

To say that he didn't want anything in return is unrealistic; Chu Danqing was doing it for self-satisfaction.

Providing emotional value to oneself is enough.

“Our benefactor asks for nothing in return, but we cannot leave him unrewarded.” Xu Congwen’s wife hurriedly added, “Without your help, I would surely be dead today.”

“I know that what this Master Fang is after is not my beauty, but this scroll of spirit beast illustrations.”

"My wife and I are powerless to protect it. As the saying goes, 'A common man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure.'"

"Those who escaped this calamity today will find it difficult to escape it again tomorrow."

"This gift is not only to repay a debt of gratitude, but also to save our lives. Please accept it."

This makes it sound like they got a good deal, but in reality, it's just an excuse to give it to Chu Danqing.

If you want to preserve it, that's easy, just find a place to bury it.

“Alright, give it to me then. When I go to kill them tomorrow morning, take the blame for this spirit beast diagram, so you won’t get into trouble.” Chu Danqing agreed.
