Chapter 174 Outright Robbery

Luo Chanyi and Chu Qingzi rushed into the room.

When they saw Lin Tian lying in the room, they couldn't help but burst into tears.

So miserable!

Truly too miserable!

It was a horrific sight!

Lin Tian's body was twisted and deformed, his chest had collapsed, and he was on his last breath.

His face had no trace of color, and his eyes had become hollow and lifeless.

“Lord Dragon King!”

Luo Chanyi wept bitterly.

Chu Qingzi wiped away her tears and said with a sobbing voice: “That damnable Old Thing, he’s truly too unreliable! To actually beat Lord Dragon King like this, I shouldn't have trusted him!”

“We will avenge this deep blood feud sooner or later!”

Lin Tian still had his last breath left; he said weakly and intermittently: “I... I still have one... one medicinal pill... quickly... feed it to me... I... I want to perform the Heaven-Returning Technique!”

Hearing Lin Tian's words, Luo Chanyi supported Lin Tian and said with a sobbing voice: “Lord Dragon King, the Heaven-Returning Technique is a forbidden art! If you perform the Heaven-Returning Technique, it will consume your lifespan. You must think clearly before making a decision!”

Lin Tian was extremely weak and said tremblingly: “If I... if I... don't perform the Heaven-Returning Technique... then I fear... I will die right now...”

Luo Chanyi cried uncontrollably and choked out: “Lord Dragon King, please go in peace! We swear that we will definitely avenge you!”

“Cough, cough, cough...”

Lin Tian suddenly began to cough violently.

As if experiencing a flash of clarity before death, he grabbed Luo Chanyi's collar and gritted his teeth: “I... I'm not dead yet! I don't want to die, I want to live! I really want to live another five hundred years!”

Luo Chanyi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded: “Lord Dragon King, I know you don't want to die, and who would want to die? But this isn't up to you! Anyway, you will die sooner or later, so why waste the effort? We will avenge you, so please go in peace!”

A large amount of blood spilled from the corners of Lin Tian's mouth.

Originally, he could have lived.

Now, he was completely going to be angered to death by Luo Chanyi!

Chu Qingzi couldn't listen anymore either, she quickly patted Luo Chanyi's shoulder and gestured: “Alright, stop saying such depressing things. Since Lord Dragon King doesn't want to die yet and wants to perform the Heaven-Returning Technique, then let's satisfy him! Go get the medicinal pill quickly.”

Following that, she looked at Lin Tian and explained: “Lord Dragon King, you know the situation with Yuheng; her soul is incomplete, so she speaks without restraint. Please don't take it to heart!”

After Luo Chanyi left, Chu Qingzi checked on Lin Tian's condition and said in surprise: “Lord Dragon King, did that Old Thing not torture your soul?”

Lin Tian couldn't help but burst into tears and choked out: “He didn't torture my soul, are you very dissatisfied with that?”

“No, no! As long as your soul wasn't injured, you can at least live for a few more days.”

“Is there a difference?” Lin Tian's tears fell like rain.

Luo Chanyi quickly brought back the medicinal pill and fed it to Lin Tian.

While Lin Tian was digesting the pill, Chu Qingzi pulled Luo Chanyi to the side and whispered: “Yuheng, go see what Jiang Chenfeng is doing. If there's an opportunity, kill him to avenge Lord Dragon King!”

“Yes! I'll go right now!”

...

The next morning.

Jiang Chenfeng got up for his morning exercise.

Although he was interrupted by his master, Master Xu Gu, last night, holding Su Yanran in his arms and sleeping for the whole night still allowed him to enjoy himself thoroughly!

Just Su Yanran's pair of long legs alone were enough to leave him with endless aftertaste!

If he could hold these legs every day while sleeping, that would truly be wonderful.

“Jiang Chenfeng!”

Just as Jiang Chenfeng stepped out of the villa.

A long sword rested against his neck.

A familiar voice came from behind him, the voice slightly trembling.

Damn!

I was careless!

I didn't dodge!

He recognized the voice behind him; it was none other than Luo Chanyi.

This woman who doesn't follow the martial way!

Jiang Chenfeng slowly raised his hands, turned around to look at Luo Chanyi, and smiled: “So it's Cicada Garment? Why treat me like this the moment we meet? Do you no longer care about our past relationship? After all, we even had that one time...”

“Shut up!”

Luo Chanyi's face flushed red, she couldn't listen anymore and snapped.

The long sword in her hand pressed tightly against Jiang Chenfeng's neck.

She only needed to use a little bit of force to cut Jiang Chenfeng's throat.

But she didn't know why.

When she could have completely killed Jiang Chenfeng with one sword strike, she hesitated and was slow to act.

Jiang Chenfeng took a deep breath and said seriously: “Cicada Garment, do you really want to kill me? Don't forget, who saved your life on that island!”

“Sorry! I am Lord Dragon King's person; I do whatever Lord Dragon King tells me to do. Even if you saved my life, at worst I'll repay you in the next life by being a beast of burden!” Luo Chanyi said coldly.

“Fine! Then can I ask, why must you kill me? Don't tell me it's because Lin Tian told you to do it. I want to hear your truest thoughts. What exactly did I do wrong that makes you have to kill me?”

Luo Chanyi gritted her teeth and said: “Fine! Then I'll let you die knowing why! Was it you who plotted against our Lord Dragon King, causing him to be beaten until he had comminuted fractures all over his body?”

Jiang Chenfeng didn't deny this matter and changed the subject: “Before I answer that question, can I ask you, do you know what your Lord Dragon King came to Yun Province to do?”

“Of course I know! Our Lord Dragon King wants to integrate the forces of Yun Province, annex the four major families of Yun Province, and then advance towards the capital city, return to the Lin Family of the Capital City, and take back everything that belongs to him!”

“Since you know all this, then as the richest family in Yun Province, isn't our Jiang Family the first to be targeted for annexation by your Lord Dragon King? And our Jiang Family has never offended him, nor have we proactively provoked him. Do we really just have to let him slaughter us?”

Jiang Chenfeng's emotions were high, his tone was impassioned, and he said with grief and indignation: “Could it be that just because he wants to annex the families of Yun Province, we families must just wait to be slaughtered and obediently hand over the foundations our ancestors worked hard for decades to build, all in one go, into his hands?”

“What kind of logic is this? Even if it were bandits engaging in open robbery, at least let us die understanding why! But he not only wants to rob everything from our families, he also wants to stand on the moral high ground to deal with us and ruin our families. What kind of bullshit logic is this!”

“Ask yourself, of the things your Lord Dragon King has done, which one can be called upright and honorable? Compared to him, I seem more like a good person, right? Should a good person be pointed at with a sword?”

Luo Chanyi was speechless.

Although she always felt something was wrong, her brain wasn't very flexible, and she couldn't find a reason to refute him.
