Along with this voice, a silhouette slowly came out from the darkness of the house. Under the shadow, it seemed very strange from the outside. His face was expressionless as his eyes calmly swept past Chu Tiannan who was laying down within the pool of blood far away.

"It's you!"

Chu Tiannan could clearly see that the one who came was Jiang Xiu, the youngster that he didn't like. Tang Zhenshan also looked towards Jiang Xiu, feeling somewhat awkward. Didn't I tell A'Dong to hold him back?

By that time A'Dong came out chasing after him, "Old Father, he…"

He was stupefied by the scene before his eyes before he could finish his words. The compound was filled with the dead bodies of soldiers, some hung on top of the trees while other laid on the ground, a few even on the stairs and windows.

And Chu Tiannan, whom he worshipped so much, and the Grandmaster he had brought with him, Liu Zhengjun were both at their dying breaths, laying in the middle of a pool of blood.

They had lost! It was a crushing defeat!

"T-This… H-How is this possible?"

Lin Zhenbei blocked Jiang Xiu's path with a dagger in his hand, blood dripping on the ground drop by drop. Black clouds covered the moon, and the sky had turned pitch black, even the wind seemed to have frozen.

"Excuse me."

Jiang Xiu raised his feet and moved forward.

There was only a distance of 1 meter between Liu Zhengjun and him. And Jiang Xiu had now taken another step forward, approaching Lin Zhenbei. Lin Zhenbei also counted his steps as he placed them, waiting for the right opportunity to use his dagger.

Jiang Xiu became faster in the next step.

Lin Zhenbei was startled. His gaze was fixed on Jiang Xiu's shoulders because no matter how fast a person's movements were, their next movements could be predicted by observing their shoulder.

Jiang Xiu's right shoulder withdrew while his left shoulder moved forward.

Lin Zhenbei sneered. His strongest element wasn't the quick speed of his dagger, and it also wasn't his flexible body, rather, it was his judgement towards the enemy's movements. By figuring out the blindspots, he also immediately moved towards the left.

But he didn't expect that he'd be dazzled by the scene in front. Jiang Xiu had already arrived less than half a meter away. His dagger went forward to welcome him, preparing to stab him, but Jiang Xiu suddenly dashed forward. If he didn't retreat, they'd collide with each other.

Lin Zhenbei got angry but still stabbed the dagger forward.

Jiang Xiu's body made a subtle movement. It was so slight that no one had sensed his actions, and Lin Zhenbei who was in his line of sight, felt as if each of the enemy's movements were targeting his weak points as if he was predicting each of his moves and understood his intentions and next movements. And all of this seemed to occur without any movements, this feeling was really unimaginable.

He finally was unable to slash him, and Jiang Xiu had already passed by him.

Lin Zhenbei's eyes opened wide as if his brain was struck by lightning, turning into mush. Only when Jiang Xiu had reached in front of Chu Tiannan, did he realise that Jiang Xiu had already crossed over his defensive line. At that moment, he was drenched with sweat, his hands shuddering.

Strong! Too strong!

This moment, he felt an intense urge to escape from here, but he didn't dare. His intuition warned him that the second he moved will be the moment of his death.

Chu Tiannan was also shocked in his heart. This little youth had crossed over Lin Zhenbei's defensive line so forcefully. If he had set out earlier, he wouldn't have become injured so much that he was covered all over with wounds and his organs stabbed. The fear of death made him do his utmost as he made a great effort to open his mouth. "I.. beg you… sa-save me."

Jiang Xiu sneered. "Didn't you ignore this Deity and said that you didn't need any help?"

These words deeply stabbed Chu Tiannan.

His gaze became disorganised as remorse flashed through his eyes, cursing his dog-sh*t gaze. Chu Tiannan crawled towards Jiang Xiu with great difficulty. "I was the one who was blind…"

"I-I… beg you… save.. me."

Jiang Xiu said. "This Deity was locked inside the room for 3 minutes. If you're able to endure another 3 minutes, you'll survive."

BOOM!

Chu Tiannan's gaze dimmed as if his heart had taken a massive hit. There were many wounds on his body. All his blood would've drained in a minute, let alone after 3 minutes, all that'd remain was his corpse.

"S-Save…"

Chu Tiannan banged his hands powerlessly on the ground. His pupils had enlarged with remorse as all traces of life disappeared from within.

"S-Save me… This matter.. is unrelated to.. me."

Lin Zhengjun used his last breath to say it.

"This Deity shall do as I promised. There are 2.5 minutes left."

"Really… no…"

Lin Zhengjun was also drained dry.

"May I ask who Sir is?" Lin Zhenbei asked. "Why must Sir muddle in these dirty waters. I am Lin Zhenbei. Sir, please let this go and let me fulfil my hatred."

Tang Zhenshan's complexion changed colours from anxiety. His heart was filled with remorse. Such a slip-up! If I'm able to get out of this alive, I definitely won't offend this mysterious youth. If he stormed away in anger, my life would be gone. His attitude is already clear from the way he dealt with Chu Tiannan and Lin Zhengjun. I can only blame myself. The guilty indeed deserved to be punished. He saved your life and even accepted your request to fight the enemy, and you made him suffer humiliation. It's truly retribution.

"Sir…"

"Get lost!" Jiang Xiu opened his mouth and said these words indifferently.

Lin Zhenbei's complexion turned rigid. Recalling Jiang Xiu's methods from a moment ago, he quivered. He didn't even dare to speak any words and also didn't take a glance towards his enemy, Tang Zhenshan, retreating back. His legs had almost become jelly, making him look sorry.

"Hooh!"

Tang Zhenshan relaxed his breath. Just now, he had almost choked.

The chauffeur, A'Dong, beside him had already become stupid. Lin Zhenbei who had so effortlessly killed Chu Tiannan and Liu Zhengjun had left in such a way. He was scared witless with just a sentence from Jiang Xiu?

Doesn't that mean that this Jiang Xiu was stronger than Chu Tiannan?!

H-How is this possible?

Yet Lin Zhenbei's scared appearance was enough to explain everything.

Tang Zhenshan quickly stepped forward: "Mr. Jiang. Words aren't enough for me to express my thanks. I, Tang Zhenshan never forget to return my gratitude. How about you take the reward of these two Grandmasters? It's 10 million!"

In the current year, 2008, 10 million was a considerable amount. Even the villa Ye Bing's family owned was only around 2-3 million. It was enough to buy 20-30 units in the Golden Zone of Jiang City.

"If Mister Jiang is dissatisfied with it, we can add more!"

Jiang Xiu calmly moved towards Tang Zhenshan, picking up a knife from the ground on the way. Tang Zhenshan didn't know what he wanted to do and merely watched him, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"This Deity doesn't want that 10 million, I want your…"

"Aaahhh!"

Tang Zhenshan screamed suddenly, just like a pig being slaughtered. His left hand went flying as blood puffed out like a fountain.

"Old Tang!" A'Dong was utterly shocked.

His gaze towards Jiang Xiu was filled with fear and alarm. The muscles on Tang Zhenshan's face twitched painfully as cold sweat drenched his body. Even if the result was in this way, he squeezed out a smile. He was also a man and was after all the person with the highest military rank at Jiang City: "Many thanks… Mr. Jiang for sparing this life. This Old man deserves this punishment."

Jiang Xiu threw the blade away and turned around to leave.

"May you have a safe journey, Mr. Jiang!"

After Jiang Xiu had thoroughly disappeared from his line of sight, Tang Zhenshan was unable to endure any longer and fell down to the ground. A'Dong quickly went to support him, "Old Tang, it'll be fine… Doctor. Doctor.."

Tang Zhenshan said: "A'Dong. Remember one thing. My hand was chopped off by Lin Zhenbei, not Jiang Xiu."

"But why? Obviously, it was…"

Tang Zhenshan: "I fear they wouldn't be able to distinguish between the right and wrongs of this matter. Mr. Jiang has granted a grand favour already."

"Mhmm! I'll remember!"

By the time Jiang Xiu returned to the dorm room, the hazy moon in the sky was shining brightly. He rested on the bed and slept.

Within the haze, someone used their hand to lightly push their shoulder. "Wake up!"

Jiang Xiu opened his eyes. The hazy scene before his eyes became clearer. It was a beautiful face. Orderly long hair and it was worn in a bun at the top. Two willow leaves like long eyebrows revealed a thriving heroic spirit rarely seen in women. Those pair of big eyes looked clear like water in a serene lake, that radiance full of rationality and wisdom. She had a celestial nose paired with her sexy lips.

The beauty opened her eyes to reprimand him. "What's the matter with you? It's already 9 AM, and you're still sleeping in the dorm room. You don't want to go to class?"

Jiang Xiu was extremely tired. "You're too brazen. You dare disturb this Deity's sleep."

The beauty wrinkled her nose in anger. She had never seen this kind of student before. She bit her lips and grabbed his bedding, lifting it up. "Wake up!"

Aahhh, she was indeed dauntless to raise a schoolboy's blanket.

In the next second, that beautiful teacher turned back immediately. It was early in the morning, and it was teen going through puberty, so that old chap below the torso was as high as it could go. The beautiful teacher's face became flushed immediately as she spoke with hate, "Quickly, wear your clothes and come out."

"This Deity…"

Jiang Xiu was about to flip about, but then he recalled that he had returned to his hometown. Moreover, he was completely nude. He bowed down to look. Deity Xiu became embarrassed and immediately used the blanket to cover himself.

You dare spy on this Deity's secrets! You'll be put to death!
