A fifth-grade martial artist against a third-grade martial artist was almost certain to die.
In addition, Yan Li was at his weakest state. He probably couldn't even beat a seventh-grade martial artist, much less a third-grade martial artist.
Chang Shan naturally thought so. That was why he said so much to Yan Li. According to his philosophy, revenge was meaningless if the other party didn't know why he died.
Many people liked to see others struggling in the mud or the abyss. Seeing their faces filled with despair, the thrill of revenge would be transmitted to the depths of their souls, calming their restless hearts.
It was right to make the target of revenge feel despair, but sometimes death didn't mean despair.
Yan Li was afraid of death. Only by living could he satisfy his desires. But death wasn't despair for him. It was relief.
…
Yan Li died.
Zhan Mu had received instructions in advance to set up a net to capture Yu Xingzhi. Then, he followed Yan Li's trail to the narrow alley and only saw a corpse.
The news of Yan Li's death spread throughout Yongling in just one night. The intelligence networks of various forces were fully activated. The information they received was accurate.
Yan Li was really dead. Dead people were worthless. They were just a short-lived sh * t-stirring stick. Soon, no one paid attention to them.
What people really paid attention to was the capital governor's office.
The capital governor who guarded the capital was a spy from the underworld. This chilled the hearts of the people of Yongling. At the same time, they trembled at the enormity of the underworld.
The capital governor's incident rang a bell for the imperial court. The underworld wasn't an existence that could be destroyed at any time. They had unknowingly grown into a colossus.
Of course, there were a few who had interacted with Yan Li. For example, Qin Yiqiu and the others who drank with him sighed. Prajna Buddha Diagram, who was still owed a favor, found it hard to understand, but he quickly accepted the fact. The students of the Academy were both happy and sour at the same time. It was really complicated. But without exception, they all felt relieved.
Among the top ten of the Academy, some laughed it off, some felt it was a pity, and some felt empty in their hearts.
For example, Tang Sanghua and Wang Yuanqing.
After class the next day, both of them were still in disbelief.
To Wang Yuanqing, Yan Li had killed Zhang Zhixiong, his most ferocious general in the future, and his cousin. This hatred could not be resolved no matter what. He had to kill Yan Li with his own hands to wash away this hatred.
Yan Li's sudden death caused him to be at a loss as to what to do.
Tang Sanghua's feelings for Yan Li were the most complicated. For her, Yan Li had qualities that attracted her, and he was also a piece of work that she was sculpting. His sudden death was like a toy that belonged to her being broken by someone else, and she didn't know who the culprit was.
That kind of irresolvable stuffiness made her want to kill someone to vent her anger.
However, she restrained herself in the end.
There was a tavern in the backyard.
With a gloomy face, she confronted Yan Chaoyang and said, "What is going on? What about Yan Li? Is it hidden here? "
She seemed to have forgotten her cultivation level and identity, and her attitude towards Yanshan Robber was not friendly.
Yan Chaoyang looked at her expressionlessly. Facing her questioning, he only said, "I don't know."
Tang Sanghua frowned and said, "Your young master is dead, aren't you sad at all?"
Yan Chaoyang looked at her expressionlessly and did not say anything.
Tang Sanghua suppressed her anger and said, "Tell me, does Yan Li always play this kind of trick?"
Yan Chaoyang looked at her expressionlessly. "You only have one life."
Tang Sanghua could not take it anymore and shouted, "Acting! I mean acting! Is he plotting something again? Where is his body? Let me see his body. If he is really dead, feed him to my bugs, and I will settle the score with him. If not, I will make sure that the whole Yanshan Robber is in chaos! "
Yan Chaoyang said coldly, "I dare you to try!"
"Hehehe …"
Tang Sanhua suddenly laughed, laughing so hard that her body trembled. Then she turned around and kept talking to herself. "No, no, I can't let my anger get the better of me. I have to think about interesting things, like …"
She muttered to herself as she walked out. She came to the slums and took out all the banknotes she had. It was a thick stack of banknotes, and there were probably tens of thousands of taels of silver. She had used all kinds of methods to save these banknotes for the past two years. Just like that, he walked with a smile on his face.
A banknote was worth at least 50 taels of silver, which was enough for an ordinary family of five to live comfortably for two years. How could the poor ever see so much money?
The first one was a five or six-year-old child. At that age, he did not understand the meaning of money. He only knew that such a small piece of paper could fill his stomach. So when the adults came to rob him, he desperately held on to it.
It was only 50 taels of silver. It was not much, and it was not enough to make people feel ugly.
Tang Sanghua threw the banknotes at a steady pace. Occasionally, she threw 100 taels of silver. Not long after, thousands of people gathered behind her.
Gradually, from picking up the banknotes, to snatching them from the hands of others. Finally, a young child was stabbed to death with a knife. The bright red blood and silver banknotes stimulated the desires of people. The greed of human nature was completely released here.
Thousands of people put on a show of martial arts. The scene could be called Shura hell.
At this time, the situation in the capital's magistrate, who was in charge of public security, was not much better than here. When they heard the informant mention the slums, they thought that they couldn't even manage the situation here, so how could they have time to care about the struggle of the poor?
It was not until dusk that a group of guards came to suppress and pacify the people, but the main culprit had already escaped.
…
Tang Sanghua got a little satisfaction from another aspect. She calmed her restless mood and felt that this method was good. She saw a few smart people among the poor. They grabbed the banknotes and were not greedy. They escaped from the slums before the others could react.
Those people were undoubtedly the most talented people in the entire slums.
According to the law of survival of the fittest, people who were not controlled by their desires and were rational and greedy had a higher survival rate.
She liked this kind of people. They were like fine raw stones that had not been carved, exuding a charming fragrance.
As she thought about it, she suddenly became happy and couldn't help but hum a little song.
Unconsciously, she walked to the Resentful Yuan Tower. The orange sunset shone on the golden plaque, making it look a little more noble.
Seeing the word "Yuan", Tang Sanghua's happy mood instantly sank. She walked over with a gloomy face.
Suddenly, she stopped at the corner and looked at the side of the restaurant. She thoughtfully said to herself, "Resentful Yuan? Stupid girl, such a name is thought-provoking. It turns out that you also have a flaw. "
Thinking of this, her mood improved again.
Just as she was about to go back to her residence, she suddenly saw a familiar shadow passing by from the corner of her eye. She subconsciously walked out of the corner and saw a man wearing a bamboo hat quickly walking into an alley in front of her.
Her heart skipped a beat. She restrained her breath and quickly chased after him. She couldn't tell who it was just by looking at his back, but she vaguely felt that this person was related to Yan Li's death.
She followed him all the way to the Legislative Square of Azure Dragon Court and saw the man stopping outside the back door of a courtyard.
He cautiously looked around to make sure that no one was following him and then went to knock on the door.
The door opened. A beautiful woman who was not even in her twenties, wearing a dark green dress, invited the man in.
Tang Sanghua hid behind the door and listened for a while. She quietly climbed over the wall and saw that it was a unique garden. She was not unfamiliar with this place.
"Isn't this Jade Garden?" Her face revealed a thought-provoking smile. She was a frequent visitor here.
She continued to follow the man and arrived at the lakeside in the middle of the garden.
In the pavilion, a man dressed in a coquettish and luxurious clothing was sitting and drinking wine. There were also three women dressed in different colors serving him.
The woman who opened the door and led the man to the pavilion, then conveniently sat in the arms of the coquettish man.
Wasn't this Young Master Cai?
The four personal maids of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter had never left his side.
"You, aren't you Young Master Cai who specializes in buying and selling information?" The man was led into the pavilion and saw Young Master Cai's unique appearance and immediately recognized her.
Buying and selling information would more or less involve colluding with the underworld. That was why Young Master Cai was labeled as a member of the underworld.
Young Master Cai smiled and said, "I'm flattered that Instructor Chang recognizes me. Please take a seat."
The man took off his bamboo hat and Tang Sanghua immediately recognized him. He was the outer yard instructor, Chang Shan.
Chang Shan sat down and hesitated for a while before saying, "The person who introduced me said that you're the one in charge. Can you really arrange for me to return to the academy?"
Young Master Cai poured a cup of wine for him and said, "I'm just a manservant who runs errands for others. However, I can still make the decision to help you return to the academy. What's more, Yan Li is already dead. As long as the case is overturned, our people will make a slight move and he will become the one who framed you. Your crime will then be cleared and it won't be difficult for you to return to the academy. "
Chang Shan wasn't a fool and asked cautiously, "What do I need to help you do?"
Young Master Cai smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. It's just a small matter of passing on information. As long as you do it well, it's not impossible for you to even obtain the token of an inner yard instructor. "
At this point, he said in a meaningful tone, "Moreover, it won't be long before the entire Yongling will be our world. At that time, Shen Liuyun will be in your bag and you can play with him however you want."
Chang Shan was slightly stunned. As he imagined that scene, his breathing involuntarily became a bit heavier.
"This …"
"Hmph, you're worse than a dog. If it weren't for my young master saving you, your head would have long been separated from your body." The girl in the dark green dress didn't give him any face. "It's a blessing that the young master wants to use you. What's there to hesitate about?"
"Xia He, don't make it sound so ugly." The gentle girl in the white dress covered her mouth and laughed. "Sluts are usually very unreasonable. You're clearly a slut who can't control your lower half."
This seemingly gentle big sister spoke in a manner that wasn't elegant at all.
"So you're a slut." The girl in the yellow dress suddenly realized.
"Slut." The last girl in the white dress said with certainty.
Chang Shan's expression was very ugly.
He stood up and walked out of the pavilion, then turned around and sneered, "You really do treat me like a dog. Do you think I don't know? I can never become a core member of your group, so I can't help you do anything. "
The girl in the white dress immediately drew her sword and pointed it at him. "Young Master, can we kill him?"
Young Master Cai smiled and said, "Before we kill him, I'm afraid we'll have to face even greater trouble."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure descended from the sky.
"Do you think so? Qu Youfeng, Supervisor Qu. "
