Chapter 177 - 177: Killers With Dignity
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The killers heard this, and their faces showed quite a spectacle. They were killers with dignity that would not accept any insult!
They rushed toward Qiao Mai like a giant net, thinking they had the upper hand. However. she flicked her hand when thev were nearlv uDon her. and a gleaming, large knife appeared.
Up until now, Qiao Mai had never been willing to spend money on buying a spiritual weapon. Ordinary blades were enough to make them regret their actions.
She liked large knives. They felt comfortable in her hand and could cut cleanly and swiftly.
The sound of “ka-cha, scrape, and pounce” filled the air as she unleashed her skills.
For her, dealing with these people was no different than slicing melons. Those black-clad individuals met their demise without even a chance to scream and were sent to the afterlife.
In the dark of night, Qiao Mai was like the Grim Reaper harvesting lives. Her eyes and divine sense could see things within a hundred meters.
“These guys have determination, right? Don’t run away. Damn it!” Qiao Mai drew her gun from the space and fired. One fell, and then another.
The field was soon littered with black-clad corpses.
Only one was left, desperately trying to retreat. Qiao Mai put away her gun and knife and rushed toward him.
After catching him, she dislocated his jaw and skillfully removed the poison hidden in his teeth. Then she reset his jaw.
“Speak. Who sent you?”
“Hmph!”
The killer stubbornly turned his head away. Qiao Mai knew the rules of this profession and understood that getting information out of a killer was not easy.
But it was only difficult, not impossible. “Tell me the truth, and I’ll make it quick for you. If you don’t, I’ll make you wish you were dead.”
“Never! I won’t talk even if you torture me to death.”
“Oh, you’re determined. Then why did you run just now? You could have died by my blade instead.”
“Hmph!”
Qiao Mai’s face grew cold. She sealed his acupoints, drew a dagger, and patted his body with her hand. His clothes fell apart in tatters. Someone unaware might have thought she intended to assault him.
Qiao Mai remained expressionless. With precision, she made cuts along his body, each grazing close to the bone.
The pain reached the marrow of his bones, and the killer convulsed all over. He refused to talk, so Qiao Mai continued until he could bear it no longer.
“I… I’ll talk.”
“You’re stubborn. You could have saved yourself a lot of suffering if you’d talked earlier.”
“It was Lady Fu from the Fu family. She paid us from Mingyou Pavilion to kill you.”
“Where is Mingyou Pavilion?”
“It’s a brothel. You can find it in the capital.” “If I don’t die, will I be pursued forever?”
“Yes.”
“What if Lady Fu dies?”
“We’d still be pursued. We took her money, and the mission will persist.”
“It seems like this will only end by destroying Mingyou Pavilion. How many Mingyou Pavilions were there in the Ming Dynasty?”
“Just one in the capital. I don’t know about others. We are ordinary killers, and there are more advanced ones. Please make it quick.”
“All right. Rest in peace.”
With a flick of her dagger, the killer’s neck twisted and fell to the ground.
Qiao Mai walked onto the official road and whistled into the distance. Dong Zao quickly approached, and she stored it in her space before racing back to the capital at top speed.
Qiao Mai was not one to be trifled with. Anyone who tried to kill her would meet their end. She had to act quickly.
Her figure moved like a blur through the night, reaching the Fu family’s residence. She found Lady Fu’s room. Two maids involved in the malicious scheme lay asleep beside her, and Qiao Mai ended their lives.
If Lady Fu was the murderer, these two maids were her accomplices. They were not innocent, having helped her commit wrongdoing.
She arrived at the bedside, looked at the words on her face, and swiftly put an end to her life.
How could these people remain so defiant even in such circumstances? They were utterly despicable!
She turned and left the Fu family’s residence, heading straight for Mingyou Pavilion.
It was indeed a brothel, dealing in the flesh trade for men and women. The scale was not small, and at this moment, it was the liveliest time for the brothel.
Inside the brothel, Qiao Mai systematically searched the premises. She first looted all their gold and silver hidden away.
Then, she searched room by room. She was a former high-level special agent, highly skilled in concealment. Not to mention that she was now a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.
Her effort pays off. She finally found a secret chamber.
The place was quite large, about a hundred square meters.
Inside was a man with a mask seated at the main seat. Five or six people were sitting cross-legged on the floor, all wearing masks.
“Why did you send so many people to kill a village woman?”
“Miss Fu wanted our people to take turns tormenting her until she died.”
“She hates her that much?”
“Who knows what she’s thinking? She paid a lot, so we have to follow her orders.”
“This village woman is no ordinary person. Our people died at her hands during the assassination the other night. She has some skills.”
“Don’t worry. We sent middle-tier assassins this time. They’ll definitely complete the mission.”
“Our Mingyou Pavilion has never failed before. Another failure would be the second one. Why does Miss Fu have such a grudge against this village woman?”
“I heard Miss Fu wanted the village woman’s hairpin, but she was refused. She was angry and humiliated. Then, her appearance was destroyed. Later, she heard that the village woman sold her hairpins under Madam Pang’s patronage and invited everyone except her. She got even angrier, saying the village woman was flaunting it in her face. So she decided to use us to vent her anger.” “Didn’t the Fu family get robbed?”
“Their wealth is not just on the surface; the straw that broke the camel’s back was much heavier.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Mai could no longer endure. These killers even wanted to torment her. They seemed to take on any job without hesitation.
She took her shoulder-mounted cannon from the space, loaded it, and fired upon them.
Modern advanced weaponry was something martial arts experts of ancient times couldn’t even imagine.
They heard the shot too late and instinctively tried to retreat. Unfortunately, the exit was blocked by Qiao Mai, and the explosive force of the cannon in such a confined space led to catastrophic consequences.
Qiao Mai entered the space the moment she shot it.
Within ten miles of Mingyou Pavilion, everyone felt the earth-shaking. People thought it was an earthquake and fled their homes in fear.
Many prostitutes wore nothing but their bras, and some patrons had to run out with their upper bodies exposed.
They waited outside for a while, but when there was no more commotion, they cursed and grumbled before returning to their revelry.
Through the space, Qiao Mai looked at the dusty interior of the secret chamber. The wall behind the master’s seat had a gaping hole from which the dirt had poured in.
All those inside were lying on the ground, most likely knocked unconscious.
Qiao Mai went over to them, one by one, and removed their masks. She didn’t recognize any of them.
When she removed the last mask, which belonged to their supposed leader, she was stunned.
It was Wang Zongtang, the eldest son of Prime Minister Wang. My, he had quite a background. This Wang family was indeed not ordinary.
They were operating such an organization covertly. Tonight, it seemed she would have to visit the Wang family.
Regardless of what Old Mistress and Master Wang thought, if they wanted to kill her, they had to be punished.
However, considering Wang Zongsheng’s status, she would spare his life.
But he couldn’t escape punishment.
She beheaded those people and broke Wang Zongtang’s legs before leaving for the Wang residence.
In one night, the Wang family’s assets were all looted.
By the time morning arrived, Qiao Mai was galloping along the official road on Dong Zao’s back.
Three days later, she arrived in Wei City. She first visited the government office and reported Rul er’s situation to Wang Zongsheng.
“Uncle, Rul er is doing well. Her due date is in early September. Please inform
Auntie. ”
“What about the document?”
“The prince didn’t take it. He said it wasn’t the document that was confiscated but the Emperor’s health. As soon as he recovers, there will be news..”
