Chapter 236: Eliminated

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Shang Changfeng’s eyes flashed with ruthlessness when he heard this.

“Naturally, we’ll investigate to the end!”

As the family head of the Shang clan, he absolutely could not tolerate this kind of person who was willing to take advantage of others!

Regarding this, Shang Jingheng also agreed. He only looked at Shang Changfeng and gave him a friendly reminder.

“Be careful.”

“Don’t worry.”

Shang Changfeng’s eyes were filled with determination.

If he did not skin all these people alive this time, he would not be the family head anymore!

Shang Jingheng did not care about the fact that he was not the family head, but…

He turned around and beckoned for someone. “Keep an eye on them. Just don’t make any mistakes.”

He had promised to protect the Shang family for as long as he was alive one day.

At that time, he had felt that his body would disappear in one day. How did he become a dark master?

At that time, he was still young. He was persuaded by that person with a few words. He thought of using the wealth of the Shang family group to find medicine. Perhaps he could find a way to cure himself?

Secondly, that person had made it very clear. He was someone who could not live for long. It was good to have something to do.

Shang Jingheng did not have such big thoughts about these things.

At that time, he just felt a little bored. He had nothing to do, and this person just happened to bump into him…

As for agreeing to it…

If he had already died, he would naturally forget about it.

However, never in his wildest dreams did he expect that his body had actually endured for ten years.

Just as he was about to be freed and he was already preparing for his funeral!

He did not expect that he would meet this little girl…

It was also because this little girl was soft-hearted, right?

She had so readily detoxified him.

She had saved his life.

He had protected her, taken care of her, and allowed her to live as she pleased in this world.

No matter how he thought about it, he was the one who had gotten lucky!

Was it an accident?

It was… excellent!

He smiled and placed a glass of milk in front of Qin Yiyi.

“Drink this.”

Qin Yiyi pursed her lips. “Can I not drink it?”

“I’m very well now, really. I don’t feel any discomfort at all.”

In order to show that what she said was right, she even deliberately jumped on the spot twice. Her cute appearance made his eyes full of smiles.

But…

“After drinking the milk, I’ll take you to the fighting arena.”

Pausing for a moment, he was afraid that these words would not pique Qin Yiyi’s interest, so he added another sentence.

“Eighteen types of weapons.”

Qin Yiyi,”…” She… would endure. Drink!

He watched as she finished a glass of milk.

Shang Jingheng stood up, “Let’s go.”

Behind him, Qin Yiyi followed, “Where are we going? Are we going to look at weapons? Is it far from here?”

Needless to say, she was used to using spiritual artifacts and things like that in her previous life.

Now, she really missed them!

Those things could no longer be touched. It would be good if she could see some of the similar designs that were pleasing to the eye.

“I’ll send you back to sleep first.”

Shang Jingheng turned around and smiled at her. His tone was gentle but firm.

“Young Lady, you must rest well. Otherwise, it’ll be bad for your health.”

Qin Yiyi really wanted to say that she didn’t need to. She didn’t want to rest…

But after thinking for a while, she nodded.

“Then you must remember to bring me there tomorrow.”

The room was Shang Jingheng’s room.

Just like his person, the edges and corners were clearly black and white.

There was a table, a chair, and a bed.

There were no more superfluous items.

The room was very large, but this empty space…

Qin Yi turned her head to look at Shang Jingheng. She really wanted to ask him: since he didn’t want so many things, why didn’t he change to a smaller room?

Just this room alone was more than enough to fit a few large beds and a pile of furniture and items!

However, she swallowed her words.

“Brother Shang, am I sleeping in your room?”

“Yes, I’ll be next door.”

Shang Jingheng looked at her with a gentle expression, “I used to come back to this room occasionally to rest. Everything is simple. Tonight, let’s sleep first. You can tell me if you want to buy anything tomorrow. You can also find Ding Yi and ask him to buy it for you.”

“This is pretty good.”

She could walk with her eyes closed without being bumped!

It was also very good.

Qin Yiyi waved at Shang Jingheng. “Goodnight, Brother Shang.”

“Good night.”

Shang Jingheng watched her enter the room and stood outside for a while.

He didn’t leave until the lights were turned off inside.

Qin Yiyi said she wasn’t sleepy just now, but now that her head touched the pillow, she fell asleep unconsciously.

On Shang Jingheng’s side, someone knocked on the door as soon as he entered the room.

“Sir, we are ready. Can we set off now?”

Shang Jingheng paused for a moment and walked into the courtyard with light footsteps.

“Let’s go.”

Until he walked far out of the courtyard.

He suddenly stopped and turned around to look at the small courtyard under the night sky.

He felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart.

There were people here who needed his care, who were waiting for him to come back and accompany her for breakfast, and who were strolling around the martial arts training grounds!

“Sir?”

“It’s nothing. Let’s go.”

Shang Jingheng regained his senses and strode into the night.

Shang Changfeng naturally found out about the news of Shang Jingheng bringing his men out very quickly.

His confidant was very worried, “Family head, what do you think this Shang Jingheng means? He comes and goes without even informing you. I think that he thinks that he is pampered because he has earned so much money for his family and doesn’t take you, the family head, seriously.”

“Family head, you can’t let him go like this.”

“Be careful of raising a tiger as a threat!”

Shang Changfeng narrowed his eyes and looked at his confidant. His voice was deep.

“If I hear you say something like this again, you won’t have to stay in the Shang family anymore.”

The other party’s expression changed greatly when he heard this.

In the next moment, he lowered his head. “Yes, family head.”

Shang Changfeng didn’t have the mood to care about what the other party was thinking. He directly chased him out.

He stared at the painting on the wall for a long time.

Finally, he laughed.

Raising tigers?!

Qin Yiyi woke up at 8:30 in the morning.

When she opened her eyes, the sky was already bright.

She washed her face and brushed her teeth.

After cleaning herself, she pushed the door open and came out.

In the courtyard, Shang Jingheng was talking to a few people at the stone table under the tree.

Other than Ding Yi, she probably had not seen the others.

When they saw her come out, they all stopped talking and looked in her direction.

Qin Yiyi smiled and walked over.

“Am I disturbing you?”

“No, we just finished talking. You can all leave now.”

Shang Jingheng decisively waved at the few people, “You can all go and do your own things. If there’s anything, you can settle it yourself.”

The few people,”…”

Ding Yi’s face was full of resentment. What did he mean by saying that everything had just ended?

They had clearly just started!

Everyone had yet to finish their first round of speeches.

Especially him.

They had just started, alright?!

Shang Jingheng chuckled and raised his eyebrows at him.

Why, do you have any objections?!

Ding Yi didn’t dare. He didn’t dare!

The breakfast was very sumptuous.

After Qin Yiyi finished eating, she rested her chin on her hands and looked at Shang Jingheng with eager eyes.

Her meaning was very obvious. I’m done eating. Can we leave now?!

Shang Jingheng couldn’t help but laugh. “Let’s go. I’ll take you out for a walk.”

Qin Yiyi was quite happy at first.

After hearing this, her small face fell. “Didn’t you say that we were going to look at the weapons and the fighting arena?”

She just wanted to see the so-called ancient martial arts world’s martial arts practice methods and inner strength moves.

And at the same time, she also wanted to think about her own shortcomings.

“Yeah, that’s why I said to go out for a walk. Or are you saying that you don’t want to go?”

She looked up and saw Shang Jingheng’s smile.

Qin Yiyi came to a realization. This person was deliberately teasing her.

She rolled her eyes at him, and the two of them were about to walk out.

Not far away, a person quickly ran over. “Sir, the family head invites you.”

After a pause, the other party added.

“It’s an urgent matter.”

Shang Jingheng did not want to go at all. He raised his eyebrows.

“Go back and tell the family head that I have urgent matters here too. Wait for me…”

Qin Yiyi gently tugged at his sleeve.

“You go and do your work. It’s better for me to wander around the courtyard by myself.”

“I haven’t even properly admired such a huge courtyard yet.”

Shang Jingheng knew that she was consoling him. After thinking for a moment, he called Ding Yi over.

“Accompany her to the armory and the training grounds. Be careful not to let anyone accidentally hurt her.”

“Don’t worry, sir. I won’t let Miss Qin lose even a strand of hair.”

Ding Yi was almost about to make a military salute.

He respectfully sent Shang Jingheng off. He turned around and met Qin Yiyi’s face with a silly smile.

“Miss Qin, don’t worry. If you follow me, there won’t be any blind people disturbing you. I’m most familiar with this place…”

He babbled on and on.

Qin Yiyi didn’t interrupt him. She just felt that it was funny.

He was clearly so skilled. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been chosen by Shang Jingheng as one of the four team leaders.

But at this moment, Ding Yi seemed to be a chatterbox!

Until the two of them entered an extremely open space.

Just as they approached, they were stopped by someone.

“Who is it? Please show me your identity card.”

Qin Yiyi exclaimed. He actually wanted an identity card?

She turned to look at Ding Yi. “Is there one?”

“There’s definitely one. Here, look carefully.”

Ding Yi very heroically took out two half-palm-sized identity cards and handed them over.

“Is this fine?”

“So it’s Mr. Ding. Please come in.”

Ding Yi glanced at Qin Yiyi and raised his eyebrows. There was a hint of smugness in his tone.

“I’ve been here for a few years. They all know me.”

Qin Yiyi gave him a few perfunctory compliments. The two of them had already walked into the martial arts practice field.

Ding Yi walked in front and introduced to her, “The martial arts practice field here is divided into two parts, public and private. As the name implies, the public part means that everyone can use it. As long as you have money, you can use it all the time, but the private areas are fought for with the strength and force of your family. It’s changed every fifty years.” As they spoke, the two of them approached a group of people practicing martial arts. Ding Yi whispered to Qin Yiyi, “This is a place for some freelance martial artists.”

Rogue cultivators?

She knew the term ‘rogue cultivators’, and she also knew what it meant.

She just didn’t expect that there was such a term for rogue cultivators in such a place…

Qin Yiyi was a little surprised, so she paid a little more attention to the rogue cultivators that Ding Yi mentioned.

Ding Yi probably saw that she was a little curious, so he explained to her in a soft voice, “The rogue cultivators here are all people who don’t want to join the major clans, but have talent in martial arts. They pooled their money together to rent the outermost training field. After decades, they can be considered as existences recognized by the major clans.”

“How is the relationship between the rogue cultivators and the big families?”

“Very ordinary.”

Ding Yi shook his head and lowered his voice, “It won’t be long before there will be a fight…”

As they were talking, they heard a bang.

The two of them raised their heads and looked in the direction not far away.

It was unknown who threw a hammer that was half the height of a man on the open space of the rogue cultivators.

At this moment, what made people angry and panicked was that the hammer actually smashed into a person’s leg.

Although he barely avoided it in the end.

But the weight of the hammer was too heavy. At this moment, both of his legs were broken.

He sat on the ground, dripping with blood.

The intense pain and the sudden change in the situation caused the other party to be stupefied.

When he realized his leg was crippled…

He almost went crazy. “Who! Which cowardly turtle hurt me? He dares to do something he shouldn’t have!”

“Wait until I’m cured, I…”

Pa..

A figure flashed and stood in front of that person.

He raised his hand and slapped the injured man on both sides of his face.

The person who slapped was a young man.

He had handsome eyes and a slender figure. If it wasn’t for his vicious aura, he would definitely turn heads if he walked down the street.

At this moment, his face was gloomy as he looked at the middle-aged man and sneered.

“Who do you think you are! To actually dare to scold a member of our Yang family?”

“This young master was the one who accidentally threw this hammer. My hand slipped. What can you do to me?”

His voice was arrogant and domineering, and his face was overbearing and tyrannical.

I will use this hammer to smash you.

But what can you do? What can you do to me?

When the surrounding people saw this young man, their expressions changed one after another. Some of the more timid ones even began to retreat!

There were even people who lowered their voices to persuade the injured man.

“Stop fooling around. This is that little devil king from the Yang family. We can’t afford to offend him!”

“What Yang Family? Aren’t they jus relying on the the Shang Family?”

“Oh right, speaking of the Shang family, have you heard? The Shang family was ambushed this time. I heard that they suffered heavy losses.”

“A starving camel is still bigger than a horse. No matter how heavy the losses, it’s not something we can think of.”

“That’s true…”

Qin Yiyi heard all these discussions.

She turned to look at Ding Yi, “What’s the relationship between the Yang family and the Shang Family?”

“Oh, the in-laws of the older generation. This generation doesn’t seem to have a suitable candidate for marriage…”

Ding Yi didn’t say a word.

This generation of the Yang family had originally decided to marry the young miss of the Yang family and Shang Changfeng, the Shang family head.

But in the end…

That young miss of the Yang family actually cried and refused to marry Shang Changfeng after seeing Shang Jingheng once.

Regarding this, Shang Changfeng did not have much of an opinion.

It was not a matter of mutual affection to begin with. If she did not marry him, then she would not marry him.

Even after suppressing the anger of his own side in the family, he even went out of his way to look for Shang Jingheng.

Or else, would he marry her?

It was said that Shang Changfeng was thrown out by Jia Yi by the collar that night!

The thoughts in Ding Yi’s mind turned around.

When he came back to his senses, he was shocked. “Miss Qin, what are you doing?”

Qin Yiyi turned her head to look at him.

“Why are you standing here? Continue walking forward.”

“It’s so bloody. I’m soft-hearted and scared.”

Ding Yi,”…” Forget it.

Although he muttered in his heart, Ding Yi still raised his foot.

It’s just..

Seeing that Qin Yiyi was about to leave, a frivolous and domineering voice rang out behind her.

“This little girl, why don’t you turn around and let brother take a good look at you?”

Qin Yiyi ignored him and continued to walk forward steadily.

The face of the young master of the Yang family behind him sank and he sneered.

If you refuse a toast, you’ll be forced to drink a forfeit, right?

His figure flashed, and he raised his hand to slap at Qin Yiyi’s body.

Disobedient?

Then he would hit her until she became obedient!
