How could anyone delay such a trivial sum?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Fang household must at least have some standards when framing someone,” Xu Congwen said. He came from a scholarly family—how could he not afford such a small amount?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For those retainers, twelve taels was already an astronomical sum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Chen ignored Xu Congwen entirely, his gaze locked firmly on Chu Danqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, getting Xu Congwen out of the way was no problem—the real problem was Chu Danqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the start, the Fang household never cared about Xu Congwen’s wife—she was just a woman, and they had countless others to choose from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why resort to kidnapping?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What they sought was the Spirit Beast Diagram: Nine Stars Circling the Moon Halberd, held by Xu Congwen’s wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To obtain it, they bribed officials and even let their elder brother bear the false reputation of a lecher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet unforeseen complications arose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they acquired this diagram, his steel crescent halberd could advance further—perhaps even allow him to contend with the heroes of the realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why he had followed them all along—not by chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the twelve-tael issue? It was deliberately fabricated—to divert attention toward lustful motives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, if they’d claimed a hundred or two hundred taels, it would’ve seemed too perfect and raised suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Esteemed brother, I—” Fang Chen began, trying to explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t a match for this strange spirit beast; getting Chu Danqing to stay out of this was best.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No,” Chu Danqing cut him off. “I won’t accept ‘brother’ from you. With your Fang household’s power, reporting to the authorities is useless.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So I’ll just send you on your way.” Chu Danqing had no time to wait for legal punishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had other matters to attend to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Killing him outright was simpler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, if you sent him to the authorities, he’d likely be released after dinner that night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He dared strike in broad daylight—he had no fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You!!” Fang Chen was stunned and furious—he never expected Chu Danqing to act so directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could demand an explanation, Da Bao’s claws were already slashing toward his throat, the Blood Rage power solidified into lethal force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hastily raised the steel crescent halberd to block.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time was not like before—once the claws struck, Fang Chen’s steel crescent halberd was instantly severed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The claws’ momentum didn’t wane—they pierced straight through Fang Chen’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No! You can’t kill me—my brother-in-law is—” Fang Chen felt searing pain, his face contorted in terror, his screams unceasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could finish, Da Bao’s claw ended him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing didn’t care who his brother-in-law was—he had this power; why would he hesitate?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone who acts so arrogantly, so brutally, surely isn’t doing it for the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no patience to resolve each case one by one—when you have power, why waste time looking over your shoulder?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Murder! He’s killed someone!!” The bystanders, witnessing this, screamed—then scattered like birds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing didn’t care—he casually tossed the corpse aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze turned to Xu Congwen and his wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, savior,” Xu Congwen said, his expression complex. “Fang Chen’s brother-in-law is the Fucheng Captain. You’ve killed him—this is now a huge matter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please leave Guanglu Prefecture quickly, to save your life.” As a local, Xu Congwen knew full well the Fang household’s power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Chu Danqing shook his head. “What’s to fear? We’ll just uproot them entirely.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without power, you run. But with power, why retreat?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m in the right—I’m not afraid!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What? His crime doesn’t warrant death? Human traffickers deserve to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those present were stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They thought Fang Chen was arrogant—but this man was even more so, openly planning to exterminate the entire family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As for you two—what are your plans?” Chu Danqing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ll find a safe place tonight, and leave the city at dawn for Yunyu Prefecture to seek relatives.” Xu Congwen knew Guanglu Prefecture was no longer safe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing found this reasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The city gates would be closed—they couldn’t leave now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Chu Danqing helping them break out? Forget it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t planning a rebellion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine,” Chu Danqing said. “You two stay with me tonight. Tomorrow morning, I’ll see you out of the city.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fang household isn’t urgent—first, find out what other crimes they’ve committed. Then kill them one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the saying goes: the monk can run, but the temple can’t. They might come for me tonight—then I’ll save myself the trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Congwen hesitated, then finally nodded: “Then thank you, savior.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Chu Danqing led them back to Heyang Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shopkeeper of Heyang Pavilion rushed forward upon seeing them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gentlemen, my shop is small—I can’t afford to offend a Captain. Please—” The shopkeeper, operating in Guanglu Prefecture, dared not anger the local power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing’s eyes narrowed. “Fine. But I won’t pay for the food and drink.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You kick me out and still want payment? How presumptuous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Naturally—it’s my shop’s fault for poor service,” the shopkeeper dared not demand payment from a man like Chu Danqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A local tyrant who kills without hesitation—how could a mere shopkeeper dare object?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing didn’t press him—he simply led them away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Big Brother Chu, do you regret it? You lost your opportunity and invited trouble for nothing,” Yang Qianyuan asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s there to regret?” Chu Danqing replied carelessly. “What exactly was this opportunity you mentioned?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know,” Yang Qianyuan said regretfully. “But I can confirm one thing: you’ve lost all connection to it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Celestial Divination isn’t omniscient. I see only fragments—I cannot perceive the whole. How could I know all?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew its limitations—if it could reveal everything, it would be invincible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just this information gap gave the Celestial Divination spirit beast an unbeatable edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I gain it, it’s fortune. If I lose it, it’s fate,” Chu Danqing said. “Opportunities aren’t lives—I won’t compromise my principles for them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Congwen and his wife exchanged glances, silently communicating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since they walked behind Chu Danqing and Yang Qianyuan, the two didn’t notice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the group found a lodging spot in the city—a dilapidated, abandoned mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ll stay here tonight. You two—oh, I forgot to heal your wounds.” Chu Danqing finally remembered: Xu Congwen and his wife were still injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Bai then used the single-target healing technique: Spirit Healing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One head-blast, followed by multiple applications—overhealing occurred instantly; their injuries fully mended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The couple’s physical stats were average—around 7 to 9.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Chen was stronger—around 20, likely boosted by his soldier-beast, the Steel Crescent Halberd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qianyuan, however—his Celestial Divination spirit beast had raised him to 15. Remarkable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this was normal; his father possessed the Celestial Divination spirit beast, Tianchi Dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After healing them, Xu Congwen spoke: “Savior, your life-saving grace—I will never forget.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have nothing to offer in return.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Earlier, this young man said you missed an opportunity saving us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My wife possesses a family heirloom: a Spirit Beast Diagram. We offer it to you as repayment—for what you lost.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yang Qianyuan’s eyes widened in shock—what bizarre turn of events.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Danqing didn’t hesitate—he refused outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No. I saved you not for repayment,” he said bluntly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To claim he wanted nothing is unrealistic—he sought self-satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The emotional value it gave him was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You need not seek repayment,” his wife quickly added. “Without you, I would have died today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I know that the eldest son of this Fang household seeks not my beauty, but this scroll of spirit beast diagrams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My husband and I lack the strength to protect it; as the saying goes, an innocent man suffers for possessing a treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today we escaped one disaster, but tomorrow we cannot escape this same disaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To give it to my benefactor is not merely repayment, but also to preserve our lives—please, my benefactor, accept it without fail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This speech makes it sound as if they were gaining an advantage, but in truth, it was merely an excuse to give it to Chu Danqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To preserve it is simple enough—bury it somewhere and be done with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very well, give it to me. Tomorrow morning, when I go to kill them, I’ll take full blame for the spirit beast diagram—so you won’t draw fire upon yourselves. Chu Danqing agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1583,"2026-06-20T00:54:41.633Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","2917e783cce68d02c1422b1f5223531b97912196b9c17bd2d09e74a56b328bc8","dimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-chapter-248","dimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-chapter-246",305,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdimension-park-i-am-the-summoning-apostle-cover.jpg"]
