Ren Baqian clenched his teeth as he passed through the smoke. His gaze swept across Yan Wei's tattered body and immediately felt a little nauseous. However, most of his attention was on Lian Baocheng, who was sitting there in a daze.
Lian Baocheng couldn't figure out what had just happened.
How did that green sphere suddenly explode into countless fragments, along with that huge sound wave and a ball of flame?
How did his guard leader die just like that? Even though Yan Wei had just attained the Earth Wheel level, he could be considered a small expert. Even though the Lian family wasn't considered the top in Great Xia, they were considered outstanding among the second-rate families. There were only six Earth Wheel experts in the family.
The practitioners in Great Xia were divided into the Spirit Wheel level, also known as the Wisdom Palace. Next was the Heaven Wheel level, also known as the Path to Heaven. Below that was the Earth Wheel level, also known as the Earth Embryo level. Below that was the Man Wheel level.
Most practitioners couldn't even attain the Man Wheel level. Only one out of a hundred practitioners could attain the Man Wheel level and truly control the body. Only one out of a thousand Man Wheel practitioners could attain the Earth Wheel level. It could be said that this was one in a hundred thousand practitioners. Even those who had just attained the Earth Wheel level could obtain the position of a deputy general in the army. Those who reached the peak of the Earth Wheel level could be considered experts.
Only those who reached the peak of the Earth Wheel level could be called the Earth Embryo level and could borrow the power of the earth. As long as they stood on the ground, they could absorb the earth's energy to restore their physical strength.
Having one foot in the Earth Wheel level meant that they had the potential to attain the Earth Embryo level. If they were lucky, they could even break through the heavenly gate and step onto the Path to Heaven. Such people would be valued everywhere. The Lian family had spent countless efforts over the years to nurture and recruit six Earth Wheel experts, which was enough to show how precious they were.
He had always been favored by his father. Furthermore, he came to Dayao, so he was paired with two experts who had just attained the Earth Wheel level. One was Lian Baocheng and the other was Yan Wei.
A few days ago, Lian Baqian was ordered to be trampled to death by that mad dog. Even if he was favored by his father, he wouldn't be able to escape punishment. As a result, he hated Ren Baqian to death and wished he could skin him and eat his flesh. On one hand, he was humiliated, and on the other hand, it was because of this.
After confirming the direction of Ren Baqian, Lian Baqian and Yan Wei returned in this direction. He was originally looking for Deputy Ren, but he didn't expect Ren Baqian to appear in front of him as if he was being chased by a dog. This almost made him burst into laughter.
There was a path to heaven, but you didn't take it. Instead, you barged into hell. I was looking for you, and you came running in front of me.
However, what happened next took a sudden turn.
Yan Wei died just like that.
Lian Baocheng's eyes were filled with fear and sluggishness. The fear was because of what had just happened, and the sluggishness was because of Yan Wei's corpse.
He hadn't even seen the empress, and two Earth Wheel experts were already dead.
When he returned, he would definitely be punished according to the family rules. Thinking of his own ending made him tremble all over.
Ren Baqian held the gun and walked to within ten meters of Lian Baocheng. He pointed the gun at Lian Baocheng and took a deep breath.
Lian Baocheng recovered from his daze and saw Ren Baqian, who wasn't far from him, raising his hand and pointing the black object at him.
What was that?
Lian Baocheng didn't think too much about it. He was about to go crazy.
"Are you lying to me?" Lian Baocheng looked at Ren Baqian with reddened eyes. He still had a glimmer of hope in his heart that what Ren Baqian said was true. If that was the case, he would still be able to explain himself when he returned. He was like a drowning man who would not let go of anything he could grab onto.
"Isn't this nonsense?"
Lian Baocheng stared at Ren Baqian as if he had a rabid dog. "I will kill you and bury you with him!"
He pounced on Ren Baqian ferociously.
Even though his martial arts weren't very good, he had practiced for a few days when he was young. He hadn't even reached the threshold of the Man Wheel level. However, everyone could see that Ren Baqian didn't know any martial arts at all.
Therefore, the only thought in Lian Baocheng's mind right now was to kill this bastard who caused him to end up like this. No matter what, he had to kill him. He also believed that he would definitely be able to kill Yan Wei.
If Yan Wei was like this, Ren Baqian would still be a little worried. This was also the reason why he didn't dare to take out his gun. If he couldn't kill Yan Wei, he would be dead meat.
But now, facing Lian Baocheng, he didn't have to worry at all.
Ren Baqian looked at Lian Baocheng as if he was looking at a fool. His finger slightly trembled as he pulled the trigger.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Three crisp but soft gunshots were heard. It wasn't like the sound of a silencer installed on a TV or in a game. Ren Baqian only knew this when he was practicing at the shooting range. The sound of a silencer could only reduce the sound of gunshots, but it was still a 'bang' or 'tu' sound.
Following the three gunshots, Lian Baocheng froze on the spot. He raised his arm and touched his chest. All the strength in his body gradually disappeared. The expression on his face changed from anger to incredulity and fear.
What exactly was in his opponent's hand?
Plop! Lian Baocheng fell to the ground. He could only breathe in and not out.
Just now, a shot had hit his lung, and blood was spurting out of his mouth.
Ren Baqian went behind him, aimed at Lian Baocheng's back, and fired another shot. Only then did he feel more at ease.
This wasn't the first time he put someone to death. He had already taken a few lives under his orders, but today was the first time he killed someone with his own hands.
In particular, Lian Baocheng was killed by him, which made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. However, the tightness in his heart was still there.
Wu Fang, who was hiding under the shade of a tree, squinted his eyes. Why did this Storyteller Ren have so many strange things on him?
Initially, he didn't know why Her Majesty was so interested in a foreigner. Now, he more or less understood.
Ren Baqian sat on the ground. Just now, he didn't seem to have done much, but he was really nervous. He didn't have any confidence in facing Yan Wei with a gun. In the end, he told a big lie and threw a grenade at Yan Wei. If he failed, he would probably have to draw his gun and fight it out with Yan Wei.
However, he didn't have any confidence in winning.
Even a crossbow arrow could be blocked by a knife. Could a gun really deal with it?
Fortunately, Lian Baocheng was from Great Xia. The lie that the Seventh Prince wasn't the biological son of the emperor had indeed attracted the attention of Yan Wei and caused him to have all sorts of greedy thoughts.
Now, he had won.
All the strength in his body was gone.
After sitting on the ground for a few minutes, Ren Baqian thought about the two corpses.
The explosion of the grenade just now wasn't soft. He was afraid that it would attract people.
If no one came, the corpses of the two would be eaten by wild beasts in no time.
Unfortunately, the explosion just now was too loud. Even though it wasn't easy to meet people in this forest, there were still many people in the surroundings. In particular, such an explosion would probably attract many people's attention.
Presumably, people would come soon. There wasn't enough time for him to move the corpses away.
Ren Baqian didn't dare to delay any longer. He got up to pick up the crossbow and carried it on his back. Then, he went to look for Yan Wei's knife. When he came back, he slashed Yan Wei's body a few times until the corpse was beyond recognition. Even though he couldn't tell how Yan Wei died since the people in this world didn't know about grenades, he still did it. Only then did he feel a little more at ease.
After all, he was just an ordinary person previously. He didn't know how to destroy corpses and didn't have the time to do so. He could only do as much damage as he wanted.
He endured the disgust and cut open Lian Baocheng's abdomen to look for the bullet in his stomach. However, as he searched, his stomach turned upwards until it reached his throat before he could push it back down. Ren Baqian really didn't dare to think about anything else. It was too disgusting. He was afraid that he would vomit now.
The 9mm bullet he used had a strong stopping effect, but its penetrative ability was average. Even at a distance of ten meters, it might not be able to penetrate a human body.
Finally, he found two bullets in Lian Baocheng's stomach. One bullet was fired from his chest when he stepped on Lian Baocheng's back. He couldn't find the last bullet.
After doing all this, Ren Baqian cut off half of Lian Baocheng's neck. He didn't dare to delay any longer. He looked around and couldn't find the crossbow arrow. After he was far away, he couldn't help but bend over and vomit.
Ordering others to kill, personally using a gun to kill, and finally cutting open the other party's abdomen to look for bullets were two completely different things.
Just now, Ren Baqian almost couldn't hold it in anymore, but he forcefully endured it. At this moment, he vomited out everything in his stomach. After vomiting stomach acid for a long time, he gulped down a few mouthfuls of water to recover his strength. Then, he walked away again.
He didn't walk far before he heard the sound of a stream.
He followed the sound. The stream wasn't big, and it was so clear that he could see the bottom. He could see a few fish swimming in it.
After Ren Baqian confirmed that there was no danger, he splashed a lot of cold water on his face. This made him feel much better. Then, he slowly cleaned the bloodstains on his hands.
