Sword made of light!
A master-level Goldfinger could actually condense the golden light into a light sword!
Looking at the golden pillar of light condensed on his finger, Chen An was extremely excited.
Not long ago, he had thought of saving up to buy a weapon for protection.
Now, there was no need.
Master-level Goldfinger was his personal weapon!
Chen An tried his best to calm down. He tried to reach out and touch the pillar of light. It felt a little warm.
He pressed it hard to see what the material was, but it passed through.
Hmm? Passed through?
Just a pillar of light, not a light sword?
It could only be used as a flashlight?
Chen An was stunned.
After regaining his senses for a moment, he felt that it shouldn’t be like this.
Therefore, he walked in front of a stone and waved the pillar of light in his hand to cut across the stone.
He did not feel any resistance from cutting.
However, after the pillar of light streaked past, the stone on the ground split into two!
Like a hot knife through butter!
No!
It was as if cutting through air!
Looking at the stone that had been split into two on the ground, Chen An was no longer excited.
This master-level cheat was too powerful!
As long as he could get close to the enemy, he would definitely be able to kill them in one strike!
In the following period of time, Chen An walked back and forth between the front and backyard, looking for all kinds of hard objects to test his new power.
Regardless of whether it was stone or iron, the pillar of light easily split them into two.
“Residents of Green Willow Alley, pay attention!”
“Next, I’ll read out the list of residents who owe rent this month!”
“Those who are called out, come out and register with me at the logistics department!”
“Otherwise, they will be executed on the spot!”
A loud shout suddenly sounded in the alley outside the courtyard.
The voice sounded very familiar.
It was a deacon in the Bamboo Leaf Gang’s Enforcement Hall. His surname was Tang.
His cultivation was at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
When Chen An heard this shout, he immediately put away the light sword on his fingertip and walked out.
Although he did not owe rent, in order to constantly understand the current situation of Green Willow Alley, he still had to go out and take a look.
See who owes rent and will be taken to the battlefield.
If these Fellow Cultivators died on the battlefield and their beautiful daughters had no one to take care of them, Chen An felt that he had an obligation to take care of them.
They arrived outside the courtyard.
Chen An saw many residents who owed rent coming out in twos and threes to gather.
It was more than he had imagined.
At a glance, there were at least 20 people.
Almost all of them were male Cultivators. Among them, there was only an ugly female Cultivator.
Female Cultivators who were good-looking and could not afford to pay rent basically relied on others. There was no need for them to owe rent and be escorted to the scene.
The rest were so ugly that no one wanted them.
Hmm?
Chen An suddenly saw an unexpected scene.
He saw that Mo Lifang, who had been pestering him not long ago, was currently in the arms of Deacon Tang of the Bamboo Leaf Gang. She was being touched and taken advantage of.
She had found herself a rich man.
When Chen An saw this, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief. He thought to himself that he finally did not have to be pestered by this vixen anymore. He could finally have some peace.
“Deacon Tang, please be kind and give me two more days. 1 only need two days to gather this month’s rent!”
There was a male Cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining who did not want to go to this dangerous battlefield. He could only kneel in front of Deacon Tang and beg humbly without caring about his dignity.
However, Deacon Tang was stubborn. He looked down at the male Cultivator from above and said coldly,
“It’s useless to beg me. Since you can’t pay the rent within the specified time, you shall earn rent-free vouchers on the battlefield for yourself.”
“Deacon Tang, you must have a way. You must have a way!”
The male Cultivator did not give up and continued to beg for mercy. “1 have a wife who has only been married for less than half a year and has never given birth. If Deacon Tang doesn’t mind, 1 can give her to Deacon Tang!”
Deacon Tang was famous for being a pervert in the Bamboo Leaf Forest.
Since he didn’t want money, he could only offer up his wife.
Moreover, she was someone else’s wife.
As expected!
When Deacon Tang heard this male Cultivator’s words, he immediately became interested and asked,
“What does your wife look like?”
“As beautiful as a flower!”
“Definitely as beautiful as a flower!”
When the male Cultivator saw that there was a chance, he immediately got up and ran back to his house in front. He pulled out a woman from the house.
She was in her early twenties, had good looks and a good figure. She was a beautiful female Cultivator whose cultivation is still at the bottom.
Deacon Tang sized her up and was very satisfied with this low-level female Cultivator. He said to the male Cultivator,
“That’s right. I’ll give you three more days this month. If you can’t pay the rent in three days, don’t blame me for being rude to you.”
“Thank you, Deacon Tang. Thank you, Deacon Tang!”
“Husband, I, I don’t want…”
“… Smack!”
A loud slap sounded.
The male Cultivator slapped the female Cultivator’s face and cursed, “Damn it, where did you get the right to say that you don’t want to? You’re just a refugee I fished out of the Cheap District. It’s not up to you to think about it!”
The female Cultivator was stunned by the slap and trembled, not daring to speak.
She was only at the first level of Qi Refining. In the eyes of the surrounding late-stage Qi Refining experts, she was not human at all.
“Hurry up and go over!”
Seeing that the female Cultivator was still standing motionless, the male Cultivator, as her husband, immediately pushed her towards Deacon Tang.
Deacon Tang laughed out loud and pulled this young and beautiful wife into his arms. Then, he kissed her pretty face in public.
The female Cultivator did not dare to move. She could only close her eyes and be molested by Deacon Tang.
On the other hand, Mo Lifang, who was in Deacon Tang’s arms, had a fleeting look of disgust in her eyes when she saw this scene. She felt a little disgusted by Deacon Tang.
If not for survival, she would never have hooked up with a man who treated women as objects.
Whether it was the female Cultivator’s closed eyes or the disgust in Mo Lifang’s eyes, Chen An, who was standing in front of the courtyard, saw everything.
He was not surprised by their reactions.
This was because he had long heard of Deacon Tang’s reputation.
One: Lusts after other people’s wives.
During the war between the Bamboo Leaf Gang and the Black Iron Manor, there were many residents in the Bamboo Core Area who could not afford the rent and were forced to give up their wives and concubines.
If he really took a fancy to the wife of a resident who could afford the rent, he would often think of ways to set up a trap to harm that resident and force him to give his wife away.
Two: Physically abusive towards his wife and concubine.
Although it was only physical pain and would not harm one’s life, it would trample on one’s dignity and crush it.
Three: Treats his wife and concubine as objects.
As long as a friend came as a guest, he would generously arrange for his wife and concubine to be treated well in the guest room.
Because of these three points, Deacon Tang was infamous in the entire core area.
No matter which alley it was, as long as the residents saw Deacon Tang coming, they would immediately hide their wives and concubines to prevent him from lusting after them.
Chen An was the same.
Every time he saw Deacon Tang coming over, he would tell his wife and concubine to stay in the house. They could not even come out of the courtyard.
Soon, all the residents who could not afford the rent arrived.
Deacon Tang began to call out names.
After confirming that the number of people was correct, he did not stay any longer. He directly left with this group of ashen-faced residents to bring them to the logistics department to register.
Mo Lifang, who was in his arms, and the female Cultivator who had been abandoned by her husband just now also left.
When she passed by Chen An’s house, Mo Lifang saw Chen An standing in front of the courtyard and realized that he was looking at her.
The moment she met Chen An’s eyes, her heart could not help but be filled with humiliation. She felt that Chen An must be laughing at her and looking down on her.
Therefore, she tiptoed slightly and leaned into Deacon Tang’s ear, whispering something to him.
Deacon Tang’s eyes lit up when he heard that. He immediately turned to look at Chen An.
However, Chen An had already turned around and returned to the house. He did not see this scene..
