Chapter 87
Fucheng, corner of East Market Street.
In front of an inconspicuous tea stall, an old man wearing a simple gray robe and graying hair was chatting happily with a few tea guests.
A bowl of coarse tea was placed in front of him, steam curling, but he didn't drink much, instead frequently calling the stall owner to add tea for the few people sitting there.
That generous appearance made the few tea guests who had been mixing in the market for years beam with joy, and the chatterbox was completely opened.
This person was none other than Jiang Ye.
After going down the mountain, he headed straight for this tea stall.
In the prefecture city, although tea houses and wine shops are places where news gathers,
they are not as grounded as these street tea stalls.
People from all walks of life come and go, and although the news is mixed, it is often the truest.
He spent a few pieces of silver to treat a few tea guests to a few pots of good tea, and he inquired about the background of the Chen family and the Sun family.
The Chen family doesn't need to be said much; that little fatty Lu Ming had mentioned it before; it is one of the three big families in the prefecture city, with a deep foundation, and the family has several elders in the Embracing the Pill Realm.
As for the Sun family, it is quite interesting.
In addition to the eight Transformation of Force retainers raised, there is also a peak Transformation of Force elder sitting in the clan, who is said to have a big name in the Transformation of Force circle and is one of the pillars of the Sun family.
In addition, the daughter of the Sun family head married into the Feng family, one of the three big families, which can be considered as hugging a thick leg.
It is also relying on this relationship that the Sun family's strength has risen in recent years, and their actions have become increasingly arrogant and domineering, as if they have the momentum of an emerging force.
"Sigh, that second young master of the Sun family is really not acting like a human."
A middle-aged tea guest with a face full of wind and frost sighed, shaking his head:
"I heard he took a fancy to a small family that just arrived in the prefecture city, called the Su family, and the young lady of that family looks like a flower. This second-generation ancestor forced people to marry him......"
He took a sip of tea, his face full of emotion:
"The good women harmed by this second-generation ancestor in the prefecture city can't be counted with two hands. I guess that young lady of the Su family will not be able to escape his clutches this time."
"Isn't that so." Another younger tea guest showed indignation and lowered his voice: "That Sun Yu is too arrogant! Relying on the family having some stinky money, relying on his sister marrying into the Feng family, walking sideways in the prefecture city, how many things has he done to bully men and women? Bah!"
He paused, a flash of cynicism in his eyes: "But people who are arrogant will have disasters! I don't believe he can be arrogant for a lifetime! One day, someone will clean him up!"
"People who are arrogant will have disasters......"
Jiang Ye nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing on his aged face.
That smile was very shallow, but it carried an indescribable meaning.
He picked up the tea bowl, took a light sip, then put it down and stood up.
"I think so too."
After speaking, he turned and left, his pace unhurried.
"Hey! Old man, you haven't finished your tea yet!"
The greetings of the tea guests came from behind.
Jiang Ye didn't look back, just waved his hand casually to signal his departure to everyone.
That withered back soon disappeared into the crowd at the street corner.
The sunset fell slowly, plating the roofs of the prefecture city with a layer of gold and red.
The twilight grew thicker, and the pedestrians on the long street gradually became sparse.
Jiang Ye stood at the street corner, looking into the distance.
His gaze crossed layers of houses and fell toward the east of the city, a deep light flashing in his aged eyes.
"Looking at the distance, the Sun family is closer... then let's visit the Sun family first."
He had already inquired clearly just now.
That is the direction of the Sun family.
The night was cool, and the moonlight was like water.
Deep in the Sun mansion, a room was brightly lit, but bursts of hysterical cursing could be heard faintly.
Clang——!!!
A precious blue and white porcelain vase was smashed fiercely on the ground, fragments scattering, making a harsh, crisp sound.
Immediately after, there was another "bang," and a purple clay teapot followed, smashed to pieces.
Sun Yu stood in the middle of the broken porcelain shards on the ground, that white face distorted by anger, his features squeezed together, looking exceptionally ferocious.
His eyes were red, and he was cursing in his mouth, like a mad dog:
"Damn! What Elder Jiang of Tianyangfeng of the Tianqing Sect, actually dares to ruin my good deeds!!!"
He kicked the table and chair beside him fiercely, and the table and chair turned over with a "bang," making a dull sound.
"Clearly it was just a little bit, that little bitch of the Su family was about to kneel at my feet and beg for mercy!!!"
He became more angry as he spoke, grabbed the vase on the table and wanted to smash it, but found that the table was already empty, so he kicked the broken porcelain shards at his feet.
"As a result, the good deeds were all ruined by that damn Elder Jiang!"
"I will definitely not spare him!!!"
He had originally been thinking happily about the scene of Su Yan kneeling and begging for mercy, and even thought about how to humiliate that ungrateful little bitch when the time came.
But today, a piece of news was like a bolt from the blue, directly shattering his beautiful dream.
The Black Wind Gang was wiped out by an elder of Tianyang Peak of the Tianqing Sect, the Su family took back the goods intact, and both people and goods arrived home safely.
How could he endure this!!!
"Young... young master..."
A maid on the side shivered, her voice weak as a mosquito. She reminded him carefully:
"The master once said, regarding the Tianqing Sect... one must be cautious in speech..."
Before the words fell—
Slap!
Sun Yu backhanded a slap, hitting her face fiercely.
The force was so great that it spun the maid around and she fell heavily to the ground.
"When is it your turn to teach me how to do things!"
He looked ferocious, and the angry curse resounded throughout the room.
The maid fell to the ground, her cheek instantly swollen red, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth, actually fainted from this slap.
But Sun Yu was not relieved.
He looked at the unconscious maid on the ground, his eyes full of violence, raised his foot, and stepped on her head fiercely, one, two, three... the dull "bang, bang" sound echoed in the room, the maid's head hit the ground, but she couldn't even let out a scream.
He didn't seem to be stepping on a person, but on an annoying bug.
"Damn bitch!!!"
He gasped for breath, his feet moving harder and harder, looking like he wouldn't stop until he stepped her to death.
At this moment.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
A crisp knock suddenly came from outside the door, unhurried, yet appearing exceptionally abrupt in this violent atmosphere.
"Damn! Who is it! Daring to bother me at this time!"
Sun Yu, who was in a fit of anger, stopped stepping and walked toward the door angrily.
He pulled the door open.
Only to see an old man in a simple gray robe with graying hair standing outside the door.
"Where did this old thing come from! Daring to knock on my door!"
Sun Yu didn't recognize the old man in front of him, subconsciously thinking this was his own servant, and raised his hand to slap him fiercely.
Slap.
The palm he swung out was caught by the old man casually.
"You damn......"
Sun Yu was about to curse, when the old man suddenly smiled faintly.
"I am the one who ruined your good deeds."
Jiang Ye's voice was as calm as water, with no emotion detectable.
Subsequently, he exerted a little force.
Crack......
A sound of bone cracking that made one's teeth ache was exceptionally clear in the silent night.
Sun Yu's arm that swung out, starting from the wrist, all the way up, shattered inch by inch, and was twisted into bone powder alive.
The arm seemed to have lost bone support, hanging down softly, and under the skin and flesh, only a pool of broken bones and blood remained, strange and terrifying.
Sun Yu didn't even have time to react before the intense pain swept over like a tide!
He widened his eyes, his mouth wide open, a short "hoo, hoo" sound coming from his throat, his whole body as if struck by lightning, frozen in place.
Until a breath later.
"Ah——!!!"
The shrill scream tore through the night sky, echoing over the Sun mansion.
