Chapter 103: Subjugation

Han Li was standing with his back to Black Bear, facing the crowd of fighting people. Although Black Bear's footsteps were extremely light, how could he deceive Han Li's ears and eyes?

So when Black Bear was only a few steps away from Han Li and began to pounce fiercely like a beast, Han Li moved his body slightly, and his whole person suddenly changed strangely to stand facing Black Bear, smiling slightly at the pouncing Black Bear.

Black Bear was greatly surprised, but he had already pounced and couldn't retreat at all. With no other choice, he had to shout loudly, stretching out his two large hands covered in black hair, and grabbed fiercely toward the other party. He prayed in his heart that this young man had no fighting experience and could be shaken by his fierce appearance, allowing him to succeed in one blow.

Seeing this big black man still not knowing life from death and moving against him, Han Li's face suddenly sank. With a "swish," his person disappeared from Black Bear's eyes.

Black Bear secretly called out "not good," hurriedly stopping his steps, wanting to turn around and run, but suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck. A bright sword tip stretched out from his throat, and then suddenly disappeared. Black Bear desperately covered his throat with his hands where blood was spurting out, wanting to say something, but only a few dry roars came from his throat, and he collapsed to the ground.

Sun Ergou's face had turned waxy yellow. He watched with his own eyes as the young man turned behind Black Bear like a ghost, then pulled out a soft sword from his waist and easily pierced Black Bear's throat with one sword. At this moment, the other party was taking out a piece of white cloth and wiping the bright sword.

The young man seemed to sense Sun Ergou's gaze. He raised his head and smiled lightly at Sun Ergou.

Sun Ergou immediately felt like he had seen a poisonous snake, hurriedly retracting his gaze. He now felt no joy at the death of his rival Black Bear, but instead felt a sense of "the rabbit dies, the fox grieves."

He now fully realized that this young man was not a fat sheep, but a Yama King who wanted his life. And these little ghosts of his had actually foolishly bumped into the hands of these Yama Kings, which was truly seeking their own death!

Sun Ergou's only hope now was that those subordinates could subdue the giant man, so that there might be a chance to fight, to negotiate conditions with the other party, and save his own life.

But when Sun Ergou saw the situation on the giant man's side clearly, he was dumbfounded.

More than twenty big men were now lying on the ground covered in blood, motionless, while the giant man was standing there with his arms crossed. Seeing Sun Ergou look over, he stared coldly at him.

Although he couldn't see the giant man's face because of the hood, Sun Ergou still felt a beast-like bloodthirsty intent rushing toward him, turning his face from waxy yellow to pale.

Han Li had been watching Sun Ergou's changes in expression coldly. He saw that this person had no martial arts skills at all and was now extremely terrified, so he had no interest in dealing with this person himself.

"Qu Hun, kill him!" Finally, Han Li turned his head and said indifferently.

"Don't! I surrender, I am willing to contribute all my family wealth to the Young Master, I am willing to be a cow or a horse for the Young Master, I know all the news about Jia Yuan City, and I can work for the Young Master..." Seeing the giant man walking toward him like a demon, Sun Ergou was so scared that he went limp on the ground, begging for mercy in a panic.

"Eh!" Han Li originally didn't want to pay attention to Sun Ergou's words, but when he heard that the other party knew all the news about Jia Yuan City, he felt a bit of interest.

"Stop for now." Han Li called out to Qu Hun, who wanted to twist off Sun Ergou's neck, and walked a few steps forward, coming to this person.

"Are you very familiar with Jia Yuan City?" Han Li asked with a smile, looking very kind.

But Sun Ergou, who had just seen Han Li's ruthless side, didn't dare to be the slightest bit negligent. He trembled and said: "Very familiar, very familiar, the little one grew up in Jia Yuan City and knows every blade of grass and tree here like the back of my hand!"

He now grabbed onto this as a life-saving straw, wishing he could exaggerate his previous words tenfold, so that the other party would feel he was useful.

After hearing such an answer, Han Li touched his nose, tilted his head and thought for a while, then took out a porcelain bottle from his bosom.

He poured out a white medicinal pill the size of a longan from the bottle and handed it to Sun Ergou.

"Either take it, or die!" Han Li said very simply.

Sun Ergou's hand holding the pill was shaking a bit. He looked at the object in his hand and hesitated, but when his gaze met the cold eyes opposite, he shivered a few times and swallowed the pill with his head tilted back.

"Good, only then will I believe you." Han Li nodded with satisfaction.

"This medicine is called the Heart-Rotting Pill, it is my unique secret medicine. You must take the antidote once a month; otherwise, your internal organs will rot and you will die. I believe you are a sensible person and won't be two-minded." Han Li said gloomily.

Although Sun Ergou had been prepared in his heart, after hearing the medicinal properties of the pill, he still looked dejected and a bit dispirited.

"Don't worry, as long as you help me finish the business in Jia Yuan City, I will completely remove this poison and restore your freedom. With your skills, I really can't use you in other places." Han Li knew well the principle of using both the carrot and the stick to make people work hard, giving Sun Ergou a hope of being freed.

"Really, Young Master!" Upon hearing this, Sun Ergou's spirit lifted slightly.

"Take this silver to handle the business, first deal with this place, I don't want anyone to know what happened here, understand?" Han Li threw a bag of broken silver to Sun Ergou and ordered indifferently.

Sun Ergou took the silver bag and weighed it slightly; it was heavy, probably with over a hundred taels of broken silver inside.

He revealed a look of joy, suddenly feeling that working for this extremely generous young man was not a bad thing.

"Young Master, rest assured, I will definitely handle this place properly and won't bring you any trouble!" He patted his chest with a flattering smile.

"Alright, I'll go first and find an inn to rest. Tomorrow morning, you come to find me. As the local snake here, you should be able to find the door easily." Han Li ordered without any politeness.

"Yes! Yes! Tomorrow morning, I will definitely arrive on time and wait for the Young Master's orders!" Sun Ergou had reached this point, and quite frankly entered the role of Han Li's subordinate.

Han Li smiled, called Qu Hun to carry the big bundle, and walked away slowly. After walking a long distance, Han Li looked back at Sun Ergou, seeing him still standing honestly in place, watching him leave, looking loyal and devoted.

"Interesting!" Han Li suddenly felt that this person was very interesting and had a good eye for things; perhaps he could really be of great use.
