Chapter 527 You're the most useless one!
Chapter 527 You're the most useless one!
As the commander of the Six Doors in Ningzhou, which borders the Western Desert, Li Wei was naturally aware of the large-scale invasion by the Qingyi Tower from the Western Desert.
Even when the main force of the Green Robe Tower entered Ningzhou City, Li Wei received intelligence, and he even saw a portrait of the Green Robe Tower's leader.
only……
Li Wei had never thought that the leader of Qingyi Tower could be that powerful.
After all, the martial artists produced in the Western Desert weren't particularly powerful.
The mighty Great Qian Dynasty is truly a place teeming with masters.
But to everyone's surprise, the master of the Green Robe Pavilion didn't even have to lift a finger. With just his voice and shadow, he inflicted a severe injury on Li Wei, as if he had been hit hard. For a moment, his internal energy was blocked, and he even lost his balance.
This simple display of skill made Li Wei realize how terrifying Liang Jin was.
And Li Wei finally believed that if Liang Jin really wanted to make a move, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand even one of Liang Jin's attacks!
"Is he a peak third-rank expert?"
"Or perhaps... a second-rank?!"
Li Wei quickly made a judgment in his mind, trying to guess Liang Jin's true strength.
"Impossible, how could there be a second-rank martial artist in the Western Desert?"
"However, it doesn't seem to be absolute... I heard recently that two top experts have emerged in the Western Desert, one of whom is covered in iron armor and can fight the Black Dragon Kingdom's Demon Slayer King head-on."
"Another one, known as the number one wandering swordsman of the Western Desert, Mo Dao Kuang, no one knows how high his martial arts skills are, but anyone who has seen him fight is already dead."
"These two experts are the true strength of the Green Robe Pavilion!"
"According to intelligence, the master of Qingyi Tower is only a fourth-grade martial artist. Although he has shown the strength to defeat a third-grade peak master of the Great Snow Mountain Sect, he shouldn't be this strong!"
"The intelligence must be wrong!"
Li Wei also understood that it was normal for intelligence to lag behind.
After all, the Western Desert is now a foreign country, and by the time the information from the Green Robe Tower is sent back to Ningzhou, it will be outdated.
Even regarding the background and origins of the owner of Qingyi Tower, the Six Doors have yet to uncover the slightest clue.
As Li Wei's murderous aura disappeared, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Lian rushed to her young son's side, hugging him and crying incessantly.
The judge and the old man were extremely anxious. It was only after a martial artist from the Green Robe Pavilion helped the young Lian family member circulate his qi that the young Lian family member recovered and was safe.
Lu Shaoze and Tang Qi were still frozen in place like two clay statues, clearly unable to react.
Liang Jin continued eating, saying without looking up:
"Now that you know, why don't you get lost?"
Upon hearing this, Li Wei frowned, his eyes filled with deep apprehension as he looked at Liang Jin.
But he wasn't afraid!
Why isn't he afraid? Because he still has confidence!
Li Wei immediately gritted his teeth, stood up, cupped his hands in a salute to Liang Jin, and smiled:
"Meng Xinghun, the master of Qingyi Tower, truly lives up to his reputation after meeting you today!"
“In the past, Lord Meng was far away in the Western Desert, and I longed to see him but could not.”
"Now that Master Meng has come to Daqian as a guest, we will certainly do our best to be hospitable to him."
"It was just a small misunderstanding. I apologize to Master Meng and ask for your forgiveness."
Who would have thought that Li Wei's attitude would change so quickly?
He was so menacing just moments before, but in the blink of an eye he became all smiles and took the initiative to apologize.
But everyone had witnessed Li Wei's despicable and shameless methods before, so no one took his apology seriously.
Liang Jin didn't even look up, continuing to eat.
Standing behind him, Muzheluo shouted at Li Wei in a deep voice:
"My landlord told you to get lost, didn't you hear me?!"
Although Mu Zheluo did not possess the same powerful sonic abilities as Liang Jin, the way his aura converged on Li Wei still produced a considerable effect.
Li Wei felt as if Mu Zheluo's overwhelming aura was pressing down on his shoulders like a mountain, causing him to kneel on the ground again after he had just stood up.
His gaze toward Muzhaluo was filled with shock and fear:
"Third grade!"
"You are a third-rank martial artist!"
Li Wei's assessment of Muzheluo's strength was quite accurate.
In this day and age, third-rank martial artists are rampant.
Due to the lag in intelligence, Li Wei always thought that apart from Mo Dao Kuang and Tie Jia Ren, the Qingyi Tower was just a group of low-level martial artists, a veritable rabble.
He didn't even know that the Green Robe Pavilion had a third-rank martial artist!
Li Wei immediately begged for mercy:
"Senior, please don't misunderstand! It's not that I don't understand what you're saying."
"Instead, someone asked a junior to pass on some words to Master Meng!"
Lu Shaoze and Tang Qi had just recovered a little when they saw all this, and their minds went blank again, as if they had been filled with cement. Their thoughts were frozen, and they could no longer think normally.
Upon hearing this, Mu Zheluo looked at Liang Jin, awaiting his decision.
Liang Jin waved his hand lightly, and Mu Zheluo withdrew his imposing aura.
Finally, Mujah added:
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"My host doesn't have time to listen to your nonsense."
Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief and was finally able to slowly stand up again.
He wiped the sweat from his brow and laughed:
"The strength of the Green Robe Tower is truly astonishing."
"Furthermore, I've also heard that the Green Robe Tower started as an assassin organization, killing for money and never failing."
“I know some important people who happen to need some forces outside of the Great Qian Dynasty to help them solve some problems.”
"They had already instructed me that once your faction entered the country, I should contact Master Meng and invite him to help them resolve their troubles."
"Don't worry, Master Meng, payment is not a problem!"
After Li Wei finished speaking, a strong sense of confidence shone through his face.
He was terrified that he would be attacked by the Green Robe Tower before he could finish speaking, which would be a real injustice.
Now that he has finished speaking, he is no longer afraid of Qingyi Tower taking action again.
Upon hearing this, Liang Jin did not continue Li Wei's topic, but instead asked:
"Are you planning to silence all bystanders by saying so much without any restraint?"
"For example, them?"
As Liang Jin spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Lu Shaoze and Tang Qi.
"Or perhaps, there are others?"
Liang Jin then pointed to the Lian family.
Those who were pointed at couldn't help but feel a jolt of fear upon hearing this.
They were well aware, of course, that Li Wei was already a powerful figure who could control everything in a province.
The important person he mentioned must be someone with immense power and influence!
It seems that behind the corrupt group in Ningzhou, there must be a huge powerful backer.
Li Weiang replied:
"These insignificant little people are best kept silent forever."
“Useless people can be killed without consequence. Of course, I wouldn’t dare ask Master Meng to handle such a trivial matter; I can resolve it myself.”
Li Wei did not find anything wrong with these words.
According to intelligence, the leader of the Green Robe Pavilion is decisive, ruthless, and vicious, and countless people have died at his hands.
In particular, he had the ambition to dominate the Western Desert, and he was clearly a man destined for great things.
Why would such a person care about the lives of a few insignificant people?
Liang Jin had finished eating. He put down his chopsticks and turned to look at Li Wei, saying:
"Li Wei, I think the most insignificant and useless person here is you."
Li Wei's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.
He really didn't understand what he had done to displease Liang Jin.
Liang Jin continued:
"When my Green Robe Tower kills, there are rules to follow. Not every scoundrel thinks he can command the Green Robe Tower."
"Besides, these people you look down on are far more important to me than the so-called big shots you speak of."
The secret of the jade tablet was of paramount importance to Liang Jin, even surpassing worldly wealth and power.
And since the old man was an expert in deciphering ancient scripts, Liang Jin naturally wouldn't allow him to be harmed.
Upon hearing this, Li Wei was greatly puzzled.
Because he could even sense that Liang Jin was about to kill him! But he wasn't flustered, because he believed he could persuade the person in front of him.
Li Wei immediately spoke again:
"Lord Meng, please consider this carefully."
"If Qingyi Tower were located in the Western Desert, then the powerful figure behind me would naturally not need to trouble your sect."
"But from the moment Qingyi Tower stepped into our Great Qian Dynasty, this cooperation was imperative!"
"The person behind me can give Qingyilou everything it wants in Daqian, and can also destroy everything Qingyilou has in Daqian!"
Li Wei had already said all the nice things, so now he was no longer hiding anything and started making threats.
He certainly has the right to make threats.
After all, the person behind him has the power to influence events in the Great Qian Dynasty.
Now that the leader of Qingyi Tower is in the territory of Daqian, he will naturally be easily manipulated by the people behind him.
This is also Li Wei's greatest source of confidence.
Before Liang Jin could even react after Li Wei spoke, the terrifying killing intent and overwhelming aura of the Qingyi Tower people around him immediately swept towards Li Wei.
The Green Robe Tower was filled with many experts, and the sheer power of these experts forced Li Wei to kneel on the ground once again.
Li Wei knelt on the ground and couldn't stand up, but he was still smiling:
"Being forced to kneel like this really annoys me!"
"But I also know that you wouldn't dare kill me."
"I am an official appointed by the imperial court. If you kill me, your Green Robe Pavilion will be tantamount to declaring war on the Great Qian Dynasty!"
"Hahahaha, at that time, there will be no way for you to escape, neither in the heavens nor on the earth, within the Great Qian Empire!"
The people from Qingyi Tower remained indifferent upon hearing this.
They were all people who had followed Liang Jin and killed countless people, so how could they be threatened by a single sentence from Li Wei?
Upon hearing this, Liang Jin still looked at Li Wei with a gentle expression.
He smiled slightly and said:
"Li Wei, you overestimate yourself."
"Killing a corrupt official who openly plotted to murder the prefectural magistrate, what's the big deal?"
"The memorial submitted by the judge will make everything clear."
"Moreover, there are two esteemed disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect who can testify to this."
Upon hearing this, Li Wei was startled.
He was indeed negligent.
If he had killed Lu Shaoze and Tang Qi, the two witnesses, earlier, he could have protected himself by virtue of his official position.
He was too arrogant, and as a result, these two important witnesses were still alive.
It's important to know that Lu Shaoze and Tang Qi hold significant positions.
Liang Jin then instructed a young man behind him:
"Corpse Dog, go and take care of him."
"He is a fourth-rank master and also the commander of the Six Doors in a prefecture."
"Killing him will greatly help your martial arts mindset in the future."
Upon hearing this, the young man immediately picked up his long sword and walked excitedly toward Li Wei.
This boy was particularly strong, as big as a calf, with a ferocious and savage face. When he heard about killing, his eyes flashed with malice and his expression became excited, like a bloodthirsty killer.
It's absolutely terrifying!
Li Wei immediately said:
"Kill me, and the people behind me won't let you off the hook either!"
He was now wounded by Liang Jin and overwhelmed by Liang Jin's imposing aura, making it difficult for him to even stand up. He could only be slaughtered at Liang Jin's mercy.
Liang Jin said disdainfully:
"What is there to fear in someone who doesn't even dare to say their name?"
The Corpse Dog had already reached Li Wei and raised the long sword in his palm.
The blade is thick and wide, but the edge is not sharp at all; instead, it is covered with serrations like a saw.
Such a knife, when used to kill, will cause immense suffering to the victim before death.
Upon seeing this, Li Wei hurriedly shouted:
"Help! Someone, come quick! I need to save me!!!"
This time, he brought all the elites of the Six Doors with him.
At that moment, they were right outside the Lian family's door.
However, even though Li Wei was shouting until his throat was hoarse, no one responded.
Just as Li Wei was shocked and angry, he heard the old man with five long tufts of beard beside Liang Jin laugh:
"Lord Li, your men have long been killed. Don't count on them."
As he spoke, the old man clapped his hands.
Accompanied by a crisp slap, the Lian family's front door slowly opened.
The night wind, carrying a strong smell of blood, immediately swept into the courtyard.
On the street outside the Lian family's residence, the group of Six Doors constables who had once looked like dark clouds looming over the city were now lying haphazardly on the ground, their bodies reduced to corpses.
They were killed without anyone noticing!
This scene delivered a powerful visual impact to everyone.
Lu Shaoze and Tang Qi, who had just recovered from their initial shock, were stunned again upon seeing this scene.
Li Wei stared blankly at all of this, muttering:
"You...you are incredibly audacious!"
He really didn't know where the Green Robe Tower got the audacity to openly kill so many Six Doors constables.
Are you really not afraid of being besieged and suppressed by the entire Daqian Dynasty?
The Corpse Dog ignored Li Wei's words and raised his knife to strike.
at this time.
Lu Shaoze, who had been standing there in a daze, suddenly spoke:
"stop!"
Amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd, Lu Shaoze suddenly stood up from the ground and quickly walked to the corpse dog.
Under the bewildered gaze of the corpse dog, Lu Shaoze shoved him aside, then turned to Liang Jin and said:
"Li Wei almost ruined me, and I must avenge him myself."
"Furthermore, Li Wei is a member of the Xuanyuan Sect and the Six Doors. I will personally kill him, which will save Master Meng a lot of trouble."
The corpse dog turned its head and looked at Liang Jin with a questioning expression.
Liang Jin nodded slightly, indicating his consent.
Lu Shaoze drew his longsword and pierced Li Wei's body with it.
Li Wei collapsed to the ground and convulsed for a while before dying.
Lu Shaoze then turned around and respectfully bowed to Liang Jin, saying:
"Master Meng, I apologize for my previous rudeness."
"This junior is willing to stay and cooperate in reporting the crimes of Li Wei and his gang of Six Doors constables. Please allow me, senior!"
At this moment, Lu Shaoze was completely awake.
He realized that the Green Robe Tower from the Western Desert was truly a group of ruthless killers.
Furthermore, they act with murderous intent and are completely unrestrained, regardless of the other party's identity or how powerful their backing is.
Lu Shaoze had been disrespectful to the Six Doors before, so he was naturally trying to make amends.
Upon hearing this, Liang Jin nodded slightly, which was taken as permission.
He glanced at the judge, who hurriedly stood up and bowed deeply to Liang, saying:
“Master Meng saved my entire Lian family, so I naturally know how to handle this matter.”
Lianpan was an honest official, but he had faced a life-or-death situation tonight and had come to see things in a new light.
Moreover, Li Wei himself was a corrupt official, and the Tongpan would not show any mercy to such a person.
With him in charge and the Xuanyuan Sect's endorsement, he believed the imperial court would not be too angry about Qingyi Tower's actions.
Liang Jin nodded with satisfaction:
“I will leave two people here to protect the Tongpan family until this is over.”
"If the judge is interested, he may join my Green Robe Pavilion."
The judge sighed, recalling how he had served as an official for many years, upholding the law and duty, yet ultimately faced the fate of having his entire family slaughtered. This inevitably made him feel disheartened.
Finally, he bowed again and said:
"To be honest, I had already planned to resign after this matter was settled."
"I hope you will take me in when the time comes."
The judge understood perfectly that only by leaving officialdom and joining the Qingyi Brothel could he and his family escape persecution from the corrupt clique in Ningzhou.
Liang Jin nodded in agreement, then looked at Old Master Lian:
“Grandpa Lian, I am very busy on this trip and have no time to stay.”
"Would the old man like to travel with us and decipher the Dragon Armor Divine Book as we go?"
The old man, of course, knew how to repay kindness, and he also had many things he planned to discuss with Liang Jin alone, so he readily agreed.
He even brought his daughter-in-law and grandson, leaving only the magistrate in Ningzhou City to handle matters there.
Liang Jin then stopped and continued on his way.
Less than three days after Liang Jin and his party left, the imperial court sent people to investigate Li Wei's death.
To everyone's surprise, the person who came this time was of exceptionally high status.
The newcomer was none other than Zhen Lei, the most skilled of the four great constables of the Six Doors, who was even once regarded as the successor to the next God of Constables!
