Uneasiness in Zhao Wu’s Heart_1\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time flew by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, another half hour had passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you guys think it makes any sense for us to be keeping watch over those people from the Luo Family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Near the high-quality Qingshi ore vein, which stretched over three hundred meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Zhao Family house servant dressed in grey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looked at the tents pitched not far away,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t help but stretch out his hand to swat at the numerous mosquitoes buzzing nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his speech, there was a hint of grumbling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who’s to say it isn’t!” Next to the grey-clad Zhao Family house servant, another servant, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but join in the complaining: “I originally thought that our Family Head sent us here for some major action.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But who would’ve thought…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Family Head actually just wanted us to keep watch over those people from the Luo Family.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, it’s indeed quite boring!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, after a series of back-and-forth remarks among those Zhao Family servants,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky turned even darker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, these people from the Zhao Family had already been on watch for nearly a whole day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even those among them who had entered the realm of cultivation,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Were struggling against the wave-like onslaught of intense drowsiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brothers, what do you say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How about I take a nap first?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After I sleep for two or three hours, I’ll take over watching those people from the Luo Family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Zhao Family servant yawned slightly, his face full of heavy sleepiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, where is everyone?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why isn’t anyone talking?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it, don’t tell me you’ve all already fallen asleep?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhao Family servant was just about to turn his head and check on his nearby companions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before he could turn around,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Hundred-Forged Steel Knife, its blade flashing with cold light, appeared at his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Pu-chi…]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a muffled sound erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hundred-Forged Steel Knife exerted a slight force, just a single slash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A round head tumbled to the ground and rolled slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bright, hot blood splattered everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Qingshan couldn’t avoid it in time and a large amount of blood splashed onto his face,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even onto his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The taste of blood was somewhat sweet, slightly fishy, with a hint of iron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Qingshan didn’t particularly like this flavor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was his first time killing someone with a knife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had thought it would be a difficult task for him to kill someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had thought he would need ample psychological preparation before killing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even perhaps experiencing the so-called sensation of revulsion afterwards, as the legends claimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But having gone through the experience of killing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Qingshan suddenly found that killing wasn’t as difficult as he imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just slightly raised the Hundred-Forged Steel Knife in his hand,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Applied a little force at someone’s neck, and with a stroke,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He severed that person’s head cleanly off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How does your first experience of killing feel?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Luo Qingshan was still somewhat stunned in place,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Yong, who had dealt with everyone else, suddenly appeared behind his fine son, Luo Qingshan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With eyes squinting slightly, he observed his silent son, Luo Qingshan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems to be much simpler than I imagined,” Luo Qingshan reached out with his right hand and wiped the blood off his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head calmly to look at his father,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then glanced at the dozens of bodies of the Zhao Family people lying nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a slight bow and a cupped-fist salute to his father, he left the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Master, he…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next to Luo Yong, the head house servant Luo Zhong glanced at his own Young Master’s figure, which seemed somewhat desolate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After swallowing his saliva, he hesitated for a moment before speaking up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s alright, don’t mind him. Qingshan is my son, I believe he can digest all of this on his own!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Yong looked at the fading silhouette of his son, Luo Qingshan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said in a low voice without any expression on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This world is inherently cold and cruel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In times of turmoil, human life is even cheaper than grass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one wishes to survive in such chaotic times, and to live a good life, providing a better existence for those around them…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One must possess ample strength, as well as a heart that is both sufficiently hateful and cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of these are necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Has everything been checked?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are no fish that slipped through the net, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long silence, Luo Yong quietly lifted his head, looking at the sky where the clouds no longer lingered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again, the pure and elegant moon appeared before the eyes of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t help but exhale a long breath of white mist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned to Luo Zhong, his most trusted servant and the head house servant, and whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master can rest assured, there is absolutely no fish that slipped through the net.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Zhong’s eyes flashed with a cold light as he replied in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good, since that’s the case, then have the house servants clean up these corpses.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t wish to see such bloody scenes when I wake up tomorrow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Master!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, early in the morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky was still a hazy gray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air was still damp and carried a hint of the scent of soil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingshi Town, Zhao Family’s territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Wu, the current Family Head of the Zhao Family, had already woken up early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He went to his room specially designated for handling family affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting silently at the head seat, he quietly dealt with those trivial matters of the family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, for some reason,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt restless today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if something significant had happened but he was yet unaware of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Someone, someone…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dealing with family affairs for another twenty minutes or so,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Wu finally could no longer bear the unknown unease in his heart and called for a servant of the Zhao Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to ask if anything he was unaware of had occurred recently within the Zhao Family or Qingshi Town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In recent times, has anything happened within the Zhao Family or Qingshi Town that I am not aware of?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Wu’s face was stern, his voice slightly hoarse as he asked the servant before him in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Family Head, in recent times…” The servant bowed his head slightly, speaking carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, as the Zhao Family’s servant spoke, Zhao Wu’s expression grew increasingly grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time the servant finished, the gloom on Zhao Wu’s face had not dissipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that all there is?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are no other matters?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Wu looked at the servant before him with a somewhat icy expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhao Family servant initially knelt directly on the ground, his body trembling slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unsure of what to say next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then suddenly, as if he remembered something, he quickly raised his head and eagerly said to Zhao Wu before him, “There is one more thing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Those who were sent out yesterday to keep an eye on the Luo Family, for some reason, have not sent back any news this morning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you certain???” Zhao Wu’s complexion became visibly worse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Certain, certainly, the servant would not dare to deceive the Family Head with such matters…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhao Family servant was kneeling firmly on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words were shaky.\u003C\u002Fp>",1236,"2026-06-03T12:43:46.723Z","2026-06-03T12:43:39.762Z",1,"novelbin.me","3775fc9d0fa3ced8ce82dd27d9b6f9547097c76901db8979ec5bdb3ddae5917e","immortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--chapter-131","immortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--chapter-130",2094,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimmortality-cultivation-i-can-increase-my-stats--cover.jpg"]
