Martial Arts Universe: With a single command, 100,000 iron cavalry will sweep across the martial wor
Chapter 66 Ruthless Choice 1
"Aren't you supposed to be able to read people's minds? Try reading them!"
Seeing him so close, Wuqing blushed and shrank back.
"I can't read you. You don't know martial arts, but your mental strength is far superior to mine... How can an ordinary person have such a strong mental fortitude?"
Su Qingfeng looked at this beautiful face and said:
"Ruthless, we'll talk about this later. I can give you this thousand taels of gold, but you can also use this thousand taels to ask me to help you once. Two choices: one, I can heal your leg and make you fully recovered; two, I can tell you who the murderer of your entire family was."
Although Su Qingfeng could produce gold, he felt that earning a thousand taels of silver just by saying a few words was a great deal—no, he didn't even intend to return the principal. Earning two thousand taels for free by saying something trivial seemed like an incredibly lucrative deal.
"Ruthless, choose one: treat the leg first."
At this moment, Tie Shou quickly stepped forward and nervously urged Wu Qing to choose one. He was afraid that Wu Qing would act impulsively once she knew the murderer, and he was even more afraid that Wu Qing would find out about her affair with Zhuge Zhengwo.
Tie Shou was filled with shock. How did Wu Xiangjun know about Wu Qing's affairs? Did his spies already cover the entire Ming Dynasty? Or was there a traitor among those who participated in the operation back then? Su Qingfeng recognized the newcomer as Tie Shou—the man who had always protected Wu Qing out of guilt. "Wu Qing, you might as well discuss it with Tie Shou first. Anyway, I won't be leaving for the time being."
Su Qingfeng's gaze swept over the other women, noticing their hesitant expressions, as if they feared he would deal with them one by one. He smiled slightly, took out a stack of silver notes from his pocket, and walked up to Murong Qiudi. "What is your name, young lady?" "Murong Qiudi."
So she was Murong Qiudi. No wonder Xie Xiaofeng was so persistent in pursuing her. But according to the rumors, shouldn't she and Xie Xiaofeng have fallen in love and eloped? It doesn't seem like that at all now.
Su Qingfeng gazed at the first disciple in "The Sword of the Third Young Master" and shook his head slightly. The women present were all exceptionally beautiful, but he remained unfazed. He pointed out a silver note containing twenty thousand taels of gold and handed it over: "Take it, we're even."
Murong Qiudi was somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected that this Lord Wu Xiang wouldn't renege on his debt—she had originally intended to take this opportunity to ask for his help. Looking at the silver notes, she shook her head and said, "I don't lack money, as long as you agree to one condition."
Su Qingfeng directly stuffed the silver notes into her arms. He dared not provoke this woman; she was as ruthless as Yaoyue and Zhu Yuyan. She founded the Heavenly Venerable Organization solely to seek revenge against Xie Xiaofeng, and Su Qingfeng did not want to have too much to do with her. "I have plenty of money; conditions are not up for discussion."
In his haste to hand over the silver notes, Su Qingfeng accidentally brushed against Murong Qiudi's chest. Su Qingfeng was immediately embarrassed, knowing he was in trouble. Murong Qiudi was both ashamed and furious, almost wanting to chop this lecherous man to pieces, but she suppressed her anger and whispered, "You didn't pay her the thousand taels earlier, and you even gave her two choices. Why is there nothing left for me?"
Seeing that Murong Qiudi didn't react immediately, Su Qingfeng knew she was also afraid others would notice the touch, and felt somewhat relieved. "I'm willing. You're too smart, I can't afford to offend you."
"Oh? So you mean all the other women here are stupid?"
"I didn't say that. Murong Qiudi, don't make enemies for me. If they were really stupid, why would they bet with you?" "Take back the silver notes, but you must agree to one condition."
"Damn it, let's save those sweet dreams for tonight."
Just then, a fight broke out nearby. Su Qingfeng and his group quickly turned around and saw a white-haired man fiercely fighting with a young man in white.
Su Qingfeng looked at the two men and felt they looked familiar—the white-haired one wielding the Shark-toothed Sword was Wei Zhuang, but he couldn't immediately guess who the one in white was. "Murong Qiudi, who are these two? Why are they fighting?" Hearing his question, Murong Qiudi replied irritably, "Why should I tell you?"
"Fine, don't tell me then. Are you the only one here who recognizes them?"
Seeing that Murong Qiudi refused to speak, Su Qingfeng turned around and wanted to find Zhu Qiqi to ask her for an explanation.
Murong Qiudi saw him about to leave and hurriedly grabbed him, saying helplessly, "The one in white is Ximen Chuixue from the Ming Dynasty, and the one with white hair is Wei Zhuang from the Eastern Continent. I've told you, so you have to promise me one thing." Su Qingfeng scoffed, "I didn't force you to tell me. There are so many people here, someone will know. Even if you don't tell, someone else will."
Seeing that this guy wouldn't budge, and noticing everyone around was focused on the fight between Ximen Chuixue and Wei Zhuang, Murong Qiudi angrily said, "Lord Wu Xiang, if you don't agree, I'll tell your wife what you just did, and see if she doesn't teach you a lesson!" Su Qingfeng quickly lowered his voice, "Damn it, Murong Qiudi, aren't you afraid of ruining your reputation? Besides, I didn't do it on purpose." "What do I have to be afraid of? Will you agree or not?"
Seeing that she didn't even care about saving face, Su Qingfeng could only shake his head helplessly—this woman truly lived up to her title as the leader of the Heavenly Venerables. "I... you win, I agree."
Having agreed to the terms, Su Qingfeng casually snatched the 20,000 taels of gold and silver notes from Murong Qiudi's arms, since she didn't need to return them anyway. Murong Qiudi felt her chest being touched again and exclaimed, "Ah! You bastard!"
Su Qingfeng's heart skipped a beat; he knew he'd caused trouble again. But could he blame him? It was her clothes that were so tight; he really hadn't meant to. "*Rui, *Rui!*"
"You scoundrel!" Zhu Yuyan, who was standing to the side, sneered disdainfully when she saw Su Qingfeng making unwanted advances towards Murong Qiudi.
Neither of them expected that Zhu Yuyan had witnessed what had just happened. Su Qingfeng shrugged indifferently at her, but Murong Qiudi blushed and immediately turned around, pretending to be focused on watching the battle between Ximen Chuixue and Wei Zhuang.
Su Qingfeng walked to Zhu Yuyan's side and said, "Your silver notes are gone, so consider that treasure as something you bought with these silver notes." Zhu Yuyan angrily pointed at him and cursed, "You bastard! That thing was clearly what you used to beg me to let you go. You have to give me these silver notes. Our Yin Kui Sect isn't well-off either."
"Haha," Su Qingfeng laughed, "Don't you feel any guilt saying that? The Yin Kui Sect is broke? Who would believe that?"
"Our Yin Kui Sect has no money left. Over the years, those nuns from Cihang Jingzhai have been relentlessly pursuing us, and the sect has long since lost all its assets." "Really nothing?" "Really nothing."
Su Qingfeng noticed that Zhu Yuyan's expression didn't seem to indicate she was lying.
"Zhu Yuyan, if you deal with all those outrageous and wicked people in the Yin Kui Sect, you'll reap unexpected rewards." Zhu Yuyan looked at Su Qingfeng with some surprise, "You want me to kill those people?"
Su Qingfeng looked at Zhu Yuyan, who still seemed not to understand, and shook her head.
"That's right, you probably can't even imagine how much money those people have. If the Yin Kui Sect wants to grow stronger, these parasites must be eliminated."
"Otherwise, the Yin Kui Sect will forever remain a demonic sect hated by everyone. They will only tarnish the sect's reputation and bring no benefit whatsoever to the Yin Kui Sect." Seeing Zhu Yuyan lower her head and remain silent, Su Qingfeng turned to look at the place where Ximen Chuixue and Wei Zhuang were fighting, only to see another pair of figures fighting. "What's going on? Why is Sikong Zhaixing fighting with someone too?"
At this moment, Zhu Yuyan recalled Su Qingfeng's words. She also knew that there were indeed some wicked people in the Yin Kui Sect who had done a lot of robbery and plunder.
Upon reflection, Su Qingfeng's words made sense; quality over quantity was a principle she understood. Zhu Yuyan glanced at the shouting Su Qingfeng and smiled gently.
This time, she decided to listen to Su Qingfeng and deal with those corrupt officials when she got back. She also wanted to see just how much wealth they were hiding. "The one fighting Sikong Zhaixing was Chu Liuxiang. They're probably vying for the title of the world's number one thief."
Chu Liuxiang? Good heavens, just how many martial arts stories are pieced together in this world? Su Qingfeng was now only worried that even characters from cultivation and immortality sects might appear. If that were the case, he'd probably have to keep a low profile from now on. At this moment, Lu Xiaofeng sidled up to Su Qingfeng and said excitedly:
"Brother Su, there are four people competing now, how about we start another bet?"
Su Qingfeng pushed Lu Xiaofeng away, somewhat helplessly. The debts here weren't even settled yet, and this guy was already trying to set up a gambling den? Wasn't he afraid of being chased by these people for repayment later? "What gambling? I'm not getting involved anymore. Lu Xiaoji, if you want to gamble, go ahead and do it yourself. Don't drag me into it. Didn't you see I've already bled a lot and made a bunch of promises?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng pursed his lips and said:
"Tsk, then I'll go find Zhu Wushi. He's definitely rich. Unlike you, you're dirt poor, and you call yourself Lord Wuxiang? You might as well be called Lord Wuxiang."
Su Qingfeng glared angrily at Lu Xiaofeng:
"You little brat, Lu Xiaofeng, you're kicking me when I'm done, aren't you? You deal with the rest of the girls yourself, I've already finished mine." This Lu Xiaofeng was too unreliable; Su Qingfeng decided not to clean up his mess anymore. He turned to the women who hadn't yet reached an agreement and said:
"Just ask Lu Xiaoji for the rest of the money. He's my partner, and I've finished my part. It's his turn to pay." Lu Xiaofeng grabbed Su Qingfeng's sleeve and quickly apologized, "Brother Su, I was just joking. Don't take it seriously."
He dared not provoke these formidable women. While a man might be able to get away with it by lying, these women were all incredibly shrewd and skilled in martial arts; how could Lu Xiaofeng dare offend them? Otherwise, their admirers alone would be enough to bury him. "I took it seriously."
"Su Qingfeng, are we still friends? Don't mess with me." "No, not anymore. From this day forward, we're breaking off all ties."
At this moment, Lin Chaoying and her group walked over. She smiled and said to Su Qingfeng:
"Lord Wu Xiang, you accepted the bet, so we're not asking this shameless Lu Xiaofeng for money."
Su Qingfeng was quite helpless when he saw that they were still looking for him. He had already paid off most of the gambling debts, and only a few tens of thousands of taels of gold remained. He didn't want to take the blame for that scoundrel Lu Xiaofeng any further. "Lu Xiaoji and I agreed to split the debt equally. I've already paid most of it. You should go find him for the rest." Su Rongrong smiled slightly at Su Qingfeng: "You're the one who collected the money, so we only acknowledge you."
"Yes, yes, you can just look for Su Qingfeng. I'll be going now!"
Seeing that the women were all rushing towards Su Qingfeng, Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly left after saying a few words. He really shouldn't have come looking for Su Qingfeng at this time; it was too risky.
He made up his mind not to approach again until Su Qingfeng had dealt with these women. Let Su Qingfeng be left alone among the beauties. Seeing that the women wouldn't let him go, and that Lu Xiaofeng had run away, Su Qingfeng could only look at the group of women beside him waiting for him to speak. Helplessly, he asked one of the voluptuous and beautiful women, "What is your name, miss?"
