Chapter 2319: An Sheng Xin's Killing Intent

~7 min read 1,329 words

Seeing the food about to run out, this enforcement team member felt a bit panicked.

He had been watching for a while, seeing they were about to finish, yet the two still acted as if they hadn't touched a thing, each taking a bite.

This won't do; if you don't make a move, what am I to do?

Unable to hold back, he stepped forward and said to one of them.

"He just ate an extra grain of rice—can you tolerate that? Why not beat him?"

"Sir, isn't private fighting forbidden in this city?"

Hmm???

Hearing that, the rogue cultivator suddenly lifted his head, face full of suspicion, and asked; upon hearing this, the enforcement team member was instead left bewildered.

"There is such a rule, but rules are dead while people are alive—can a living person really be held to death by urine?"

"Besides, when you all fought earlier, how come you never thought of this?"

"As an enforcement team member, he naturally couldn't say anything against the rules, yet deep down he wanted those two to make a move."

After a moment of silence, the enforcement team member finally spoke softly.

"If this man had any spine, since we pooled our money together, why should he eat more than you? If it were me, even if I had to spend a few days in jail, I could never swallow this insult."

Hmm???

Those words, like a demon's whisper, lingered in the rogue cultivator's mind for a long time.

"Yeah, he just ate an extra grain of rice; clearly we both contributed equal money, so why should he eat more?"

The more he thought, the more a ball of anger rose in the rogue cultivator's chest, gradually even his gaze toward the other changed.

And upon noticing that this person's gaze was off, the other rogue cultivator instantly went on guard, staring fixedly at him and speaking word by word.

"You... what do you intend to do?"

"You just ate an extra grain of rice; let it go for me."

Faced with these unfriendly words, the cultivator who heard them furrowed his brows deeply and coldly said.

"You believe what he says?"

"How could I not believe what the enforcement team says?"

"Idiot."

"You dare insult me?"

"He's already insulted you—can you still tolerate that?"

"Aren't you stupid?"

"Look, he's still insulting you, eating your food and then insulting you—such humiliation, no man could bear it; beat him."

"You're courting death."

"Bold, stop right now."

Under the enforcement team member's "patient coaxing," the two finally started fighting.

One couldn't help but throw a heavy punch; seeing that, the other hastily dodged.

But before they could throw a second strike, the enforcement team member nearby swarmed in and instantly subdued both on the spot.

He had long been ready to act at any moment, so this move was naturally absurdly fast.

Even after being pressed down, the two hadn't reacted in time—I had just thrown a punch, how did they end up pinned to the ground?

Meanwhile, the enforcement team member who had been "patiently coaxing" now let out a relieved sigh.

"Bold, private fighting in the city—go spend two days in jail."

Hmm???

Immediately the two were taken away, and that bowl of food, now basically empty, was naturally taken along as evidence.

Ye Zhangqing, who had witnessed the whole scene from the side, watched the two being led away, his expression strange.

"Isn't this entrapment enforcement?"

"I inexplicably feel a sense of familiarity—really, the tactics these enforcement team members use are too familiar."

"Otherwise, how could there be a case where a punch is just thrown and the next second the person is already lying on the ground?"

"And over the next few days, the enforcement team members obviously opened up a new approach."

"Their entrapment enforcement tactics were played by them to a slippery degree."

"All kinds of methods, all kinds of temptations, all kinds of provocation—bottom line, just one sentence: once they start fighting, it's over."

"As for that, Ye Zhangqing didn't intervene either."

"As long as it doesn't affect my business, that's fine; besides, the enforcement team belongs to the Heavenly Family, and I have no authority over them."

"When the Heavenly Family decides to act, they will naturally do so."

"Moreover, many cultivators aren't fools, especially the rogue cultivators."

"You can say these rogue cultivators are poor, say they're weak, but you can't say they're stupid."

"After all, they have no power or influence, and no background; those who have survived to now are basically not stupid."

"Under the competition of survival of the fittest, stupid people have long been eliminated."

"So it's basically a one‑time chance; after suffering a loss once, these rogue cultivators let the enforcement team provoke however they like—anyway, I just won't fall for it."

"No matter what you say, I'll just ignore it."

"The enforcement team members also wouldn't act without cause; they still have that bottom line, though it's slim."

"So, in just a few days, this entrapment enforcement trick of the enforcement team lost much of its usefulness, at most picking up leftovers."

"When encountering a few inexperienced ones, there's still hope of success."

Ye Zhangqing lived peacefully and comfortably in Thus English: Thus English: Dengtianxiancheng, while inside the Ultimate Bliss Palace, An Sheng Xin, whose injuries had largely healed, upon learning that Ma Hong and the Three Holy Sons had been killed, felt his killing intent intensify to the extreme.

"It wasn't that he particularly liked Ma Hong; it was pure hatred—hatred for Ye Zhangqing, hatred for Tianlin, hatred for Miao Qianqian."

These three guys, joining forces to deal with him like this, simply deserve to die, their crime deserves myriad deaths, they have no place to be buried.

However, An Sheng Xin is not stupid either; he knows that relying solely on his own strength, he is fundamentally no match for the three of them.

Even if he were to pull in that guy from Myriad Stars Island, it would still be doubtful.

Moreover, that guy could not possibly join forces with him.

Therefore, even though his heart was filled with raging hatred, An Sheng Xin did not act rashly.

The result of acting rashly would likely be to repeat past mistakes, and then he would be severely dealt with again.

A frontal assault won't work, so he can only resort to vicious tactics; even if he can't deal with Ye Zhangqing and company, making them feel disgusted would at least make him feel a bit better.

Immediately, An Sheng Xin came to a secret chamber of the Dong Fu.

From the outside it looks like just an ordinary secret chamber, but once inside one discovers that it is actually also an entrance to a Dong Fu.

The Dong Fu where An Sheng Xin resides is a double Dong Fu, with another Dong Fu inside it.

Upon entering through the entrance, this Dong Fu gives one a feeling of gloom and cold.

Moreover, the surroundings are filled with evil spirits' shadows, yet these evil spirits have no intention of harming An Sheng Xin in the slightest.

Even upon seeing An Sheng Xin approach, they respectfully salute him.

No one knows that the evil spirits in this Dong Fu are all ghost pets raised by An Sheng Xin.

In his youth, by a fortunate coincidence, An Sheng Xin Xiūliàn a ghost pet technique.

After that, whenever An Sheng Xin encounters a suitable target, he kills him, then uses this technique to forcibly extract the soul, brings it back here, and raises it as his own ghost pet.

Thus far, An Sheng Xin has never told anyone about this method, not even the Palace Master of Ultimate Bliss Palace or the elders.

After all, this ghost pet technique is not something that can be shown publicly; it is completely rejected by all major forces of the Immortal Realm, and moreover they look down on it greatly.
