Chapter 120 He possesses unparalleled divine talent
Nie Kun and Tie Qi, who were tossed dozens of feet away from the inn by the raging hurricane, gazed at the yellow sky bathed in the golden glow of the setting sun, both deeply shocked.

"The Vice Commander, the Vice Commander, he directly killed Niu Kuanyu?!" Nie Kun's head was buzzing.

While he was still in the inn, he felt extremely fearful and powerless when he heard Niu Kuanyu interrogating Huang Tian about the so-called secret treasure.

Because Niu Kuanyu is not only a second-grade grandmaster, but also a strongman in this realm. Even two ordinary grandmasters of the same level might not be able to defeat him when they join forces. In addition, there are the three elders of Qinzhou who are rampant in Qinzhou and have a great reputation. Huang Tian can be said to be doomed to die, and he and Tie Qi will definitely not be able to escape.

but!

In just a dozen breaths, the situation changed drastically!
The dazzling and extraordinary sword flower unleashed by the three elders of Qinzhou was instantly submerged by the endless sea of ​​blades. Not only that, they only managed to utter a cry of alarm before dying under the blade's aura.

Too easy!

Niu Kuanyu, who was considered extremely powerful by Nie Kun, also had his right arm blown off by Huang Tian's punch, followed by an unparalleled heavenly blade that split him in two!
"How can you be so strong?!"

Like Niu Kuanyu, Nie Kun was also filled with disbelief. However, compared to the former, he was both shocked and delighted, after all, he and Tie Qi would not die this time.

Getting up from the muddy ground, Tieqi touched his smooth head and murmured, "Brother Nie, am I dreaming?"

Nie Kun glanced at him, then punched him in the shoulder. Tie Qi hissed softly, "That hurts a bit. Looks like it wasn't a dream!"

"Alright, stop having nightmares, hurry up and go over there!"

Nie Kun took a step and leaped through the howling wind towards Huang Tian, ​​who was standing there. Tie Qi slapped his head, and with a bang, the ground exploded, and he flew to Huang Tian's side like a cannonball.

"Assistant!" The two men bowed respectfully.

Huang Tian glanced at the two of them. "Are you alright?"

"No."

Nie Kun's old face flushed slightly. "When the Vice Commissioner was fighting with Niu Tong, Niu Kuanyu and others, we were blown out of the inn by the gale. Apart from being a bit disheveled, we were not injured."

How could he be injured without even fighting anyone?
Tie Qi also touched his head sheepishly.

They were originally prepared to fight Niu Kuanyu's four trusted subordinates, but those four died even faster than the three elders of Qinzhou. In the blink of an eye, they were sliced ​​into minced meat by the blade's energy, and the sprayed blood splattered all over their faces.

Nie Kun stared blankly at Niu Kuanyu's corpse lying on the ground not far away. "Commander, what should we do now?"

The commander of the Qinzhou Garrison, a high-ranking military officer, coveted an opportunity with his subordinates and, together with a villain, murdered them on the way. If this were to get out, the Qinzhou Garrison would lose all face.

However, the death of a second-grade grandmaster could not be concealed for long. Moreover, the diners in the inn had just witnessed their confrontation, so the news could not be kept secret.

Huang Tianping said calmly, "What do you mean, 'what to do'? Of course, we should report the truth to the county town, and then they can send a letter to the state garrison and ask them to give me an explanation."

You clearly said you'd come to Kunyun to provide support, but the state capital sent someone like this instead? Leaving aside any questioning, the state and military garrison should at least show the proper attitude and offer adequate compensation. Otherwise, who will be truly dedicated to serving you? Disloyalty and disloyalty are inevitable.

Nie Kun opened his mouth and asked, "Commander, shall we still go to Funing?"

The leader of the team, Niu Kuanyu, is dead. He was killed by his subordinates while trying to seize the treasure. Under such circumstances, is it still necessary for them to go to Funing?
"Funing is in a state of panic, the wandering martial artists are acting arrogantly, and the evil cult is causing trouble in secret. We need support. Why don't we go? Don't let Niu Kuanyu disrupt our plans," Huang Tian said.

Tie Qi hesitated and asked, "What about these corpses?"

Huang Tian pondered for a moment and said, "Tie Qi, you take Niu Kuanyu's body back to the county town. As for the heads of the three elders of Qinzhou, Nie Kun and I will take them to Funing."

Tie Qi responded, "Yes!"

Then he went to Niu Kuanyu's body, looked at the mess of red and white things that had flowed all over the ground, and without feeling disgusted, he picked up a large cloth bundle and stuffed them all into it.

Nie Kun walked into the ruined inn and found the heads of the three elders of Qinzhou amidst the chaos. Well, the three of them were lucky; their heads had not been hit by the blade's energy, so their faces could be seen clearly.

After reassembling his head, Nie Kun walked back. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly noticed a middle-aged man kneeling on a small mound not far away, staring blankly at the destroyed inn for a long time, his eyes ashen.

Huang Tian also saw the man and recognized him as the innkeeper. He then turned to Nie Kun and instructed him, "Give him some gold and silver to compensate him. He has suffered an undeserved misfortune."

Nie Kun nodded and leaped to the middle-aged shopkeeper. The shopkeeper felt a tall shadow loom over him. When he looked up, he saw Nie Kun, his face covered in blood, smiling at him.

"Ahhhhh!!"

The middle-aged shopkeeper screamed in terror and tried to run away, but Nie Kun's face darkened. He stepped forward, grabbed the back of the shopkeeper's collar, and pulled him back forcefully.

The two men faced each other. The middle-aged shopkeeper trembled, closed his eyes, and cried out, "Hero, spare my life! Spare my life! I have an eighty-year-old mother to support and three children to raise... I didn't see anything, I didn't know anything! Let me go!"

Snapped! !

A money bag fell into his hand.

"Alright, stop with the 'eighty-year-old mother' and 'three children,' do you even believe that yourself?" Nie Kun was speechless. "This money is from my family's assistant, it should be enough to make up for the inn you destroyed."

The middle-aged shopkeeper still didn't believe it. He secretly opened one eye, glanced down at the money bag in his hand, squeezed it, and found it to be quite heavy and contained a considerable amount of money. He then looked up and met Nie Kun's face, which was stained with red and white filth and had a half-smile on it.

He shuddered slightly, forcing a smile, "Thank you, my heroes, thank you, my heroes."

Nie Kun snorted and waved his hand, signaling him to leave quickly.

The middle-aged innkeeper turned around, opened the money bag and glanced at it. A surge of joy welled up in his heart, because this money was not only enough to compensate for his losses, but also enough to open five more similar inns!
Overjoyed, he turned and bowed repeatedly to Huang Tian, ​​who was not far away. "Thank you, hero! Thank you, great hero! I will definitely not tell anyone what happened today. No, I didn't see anything! I didn't see anything!"

After saying a few words, he happily grabbed his money bag and ran off into the distance.

Nie Kun and Tie Qi were speechless, while Huang Tian smiled, looked up at the sky, and saw that it was completely dark. This place was in the middle of nowhere, with no other place to stay besides this inn.

Unfortunately, the inn was smashed up and filled with filth, with red and white splattered all over the floor, and the smell was extremely unpleasant. Staying in it was worse than staying in the middle of nowhere.

"Fine, let's just travel through the night." Huang Tian made his decision. All of them were powerful martial artists, so traveling through the night was nothing to them. If it weren't for the fact that horses would be exhausted after running for a long time, they would never have stopped.

"Tieqi, you take Niu Kuanyu's body back to the county town now, and Nie Kun and I will continue to Funing."

"Yes!"

The two responded, and Tieqi led the horse over, carrying the bundle containing the corpse. With a shout, the horse galloped off.

Huang Tian and Nie Kun mounted their horses and galloped towards Funing County, bathed in the soft moonlight.

……

……

Ta da~

The inn wasn't far from the county town, and Tieqi returned to the county town in just over half a day.

When Yu Jingcheng and Bai Yuanfu saw him at the entrance of the Zhenwuwei government office, they were both stunned.

The former asked in surprise, "Didn't you go to Funing County with Magistrate Niu and Huang Tian? How come you're back so soon?" "Could something have happened?"

Bai Yuanfu noticed several bloodstains on Tie Qi's clothes, and his heart skipped a beat as an ominous premonition welled up inside him.

Tie Qi opened his mouth to speak, but for a moment he didn't know where to begin. He stammered for a couple of moments and then inexplicably let out a long sigh. He then slapped his forehead, pointed to the bundle on his horse, and said, "Let's go inside and talk. This is a huge matter!"

Yu Jingcheng and his companion looked at the bundle, took a sniff, and were met with a strong smell of blood. Their expressions changed drastically.

"It can't be..." Shiraharasuke felt his hands trembling.

Yu Jingcheng quickly realized that it couldn't be Huang Tian's corpse inside, otherwise Tie Qi would not be so calm now.

"Don't rush!" Yu Jingcheng pressed Bai Yuanfu's arm and turned to Tie Qi, saying, "Take the bundle with you, let's talk inside."

"Yes!"

Tieqi, carrying the bundle, followed the two to a secluded side room, and then opened the cloth bag under their probing gazes.

At just one glance, the two of them gasped in horror. They weren't frightened by the bloodstains in the bundle, but by the face that had been cut in half!

"Niu Kuanyu?!" Yu Jingcheng exclaimed in astonishment. "What, what happened? Who killed him? Wait, where is Huang Tian? Is he safe? Why didn't he come back with you after such a major incident?"

The words had barely left his mouth when he suddenly realized something, his eyes widening in disbelief as he exclaimed, "Niu Kuanyu, could he have been killed by Huang Tian?!"

Tie Qi nodded and said, "That's true."

He then quickly recounted what had happened at the inn the previous day.

"...That's roughly how things went. In the end, Vice Commissioner Huang asked me to bring Niu Kuanyu's body back, while he and Nie Kun carried the heads of the three elders of Qinzhou to Funing."

After listening to Tie Qi's story, Yu Jingcheng and Bai Yuanfu were both in a daze.

After a long silence, the former murmured, "Huang Tian, ​​you've broken through again?"

The latter asserted with certainty, "He must have broken through to a higher realm again!"

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to kill Niu Kuanyu so easily.

"His strength..."

Yu Jingcheng really didn't know what to say. Just over a month ago, Huang Tian could only defeat and kill a third-grade grandmaster, but now he could kill a second-grade expert and three third-grade martial artists at the same time!
Outrageous!

After a long pause, the two looked back at the corpse in the bag, feeling a bit of a headache.

Yu Jingcheng sighed and said, "Just as Huang Tian said, send a letter to the Zhenwuwei of the prefecture and inform them of this matter, and remind them to give a response as soon as possible to appease Huang Tian and prevent such a talented person from harming our Zhenwuwei."

At this point, he looked at Tie Qi, "Did anyone see them fight?"

"Yes, and quite a lot," Tie Qi said truthfully.

Yu Jingcheng suddenly had a headache.

With eyewitnesses, this matter can no longer be concealed, and Qinzhou Town's Martial Guard is going to lose face big time!

However, so be it if he loses face. It's not his face that's being lost. As for the reputation of the state and military guards... well, who told you to misjudge people and send someone who covets Huang Tianxin to Kunyun? You have to bear the consequences of your mistakes.

Yu Jingcheng pondered for a moment, "Although this matter can't be kept secret, let's not leak it out for now. Let's delay for as many days as we can and wait for the response from the state and military garrisons."

Bai Yuanfu asked, "Should we inform Senior Zhou Tu?"

Yu Jingcheng thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "He is the only second-rank Grandmaster stationed in the county town, so we must inform him of such an important matter."

In fact, it wouldn't have mattered if they hadn't told them, because in a few days, when Huang Tian and Nie Kun arrived in Funing, and Niu Kuanyu, who was leading the team, did not appear, the news of his death would no longer be concealed.

Rather than being questioned by Zhou Tu later, it's better to tell him about it now.

"Go and report to Constable Zhou personally. I will write a letter to the State Garrison immediately," Yu Jingcheng instructed.

"Yes!"

Bai Yuanfu left the government office and went to Zhenhuafang, where he found Zhou Tu and explained in detail what had happened at the inn.

The latter was completely stunned after hearing this.

After Shirahara Fusa left, he remained sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard, lost in thought.

He was startled awake by Zhou Miaosu's call, "Uncle, what's wrong? I heard from the servants that Commander Bai came by just now?"

Zhou Tu raised his head and said softly, "He did come, and he brought me some news."

"what news?"

Niu Kuanyu is dead.

"What? Niu Kuanyu is dead? He's actually dead?!"

Zhou Miaosu stood there stunned. "Who killed him? There's actually a master in Kunyun County who could kill him? Wait! Could it be..."

Zhou Tu slowly said, "He colluded with the three elders of Qinzhou to attack Huang Tian, ​​and then they were all killed by Huang Tian."

Zhou Miaosu stared wide-eyed, speechless for a long time.

Zhou Tu murmured, "Just a few days ago, we were still guessing whether Huang Tian had broken through to the fourth rank. Now we don't need to guess anymore. He must have broken through to be able to kill Niu Kuanyu and the others so easily."

After saying that, he let out a soft breath and sighed, "Bones in a tomb, indeed, bones in a tomb..."

Zhou Miaosu understood what her uncle was lamenting. A few days ago, when they were talking, Zhou Tu said that Niu Kuanyu was a skeleton in a tomb, "He has offended the heavens and will not live for many days."

Now, my words have indeed come true!
If I said a few days, it really will be a few days!
You should at least live for another ten days or half a month!
Zhou Miaosu sat on the stone bench with mixed feelings, poured herself a cup of tea, and sipped it slowly, as if this could suppress the turmoil in her heart.

Hehe~

A gentle breeze blew, causing the fallen leaves to swirl and float in the air. The bamboo shadows swayed, the fragrance of flowers filled the air, and the tall trees rustled.

After a long while, Zhou Miaosu spoke softly, breaking the tranquility of the courtyard.

"Huang Tian, ​​you possess the appearance of a supreme celestial being..."
