Chapter 24: Brother Chen, you don't even recognize me

~8 min read 1,513 words

It was just that Lv Xianba underestimated Yin Qi's strength and the tyranny of the Imperial Pole Blade Technique.

Under one blade, Lv Xianba's left arm was severed, blood sprayed, and before Lv Xianba could react, Yin Qi turned his wrist and swung the blade again, severing Lv Xianba's right hand.

Lv Xianba screamed, a look of despair in his eyes, and then the scream stopped abruptly.

Because his throat had been slashed, blood sprayed, and he could only make a "he-he" sound in his mouth, then fell to the ground in despair.

Until his death, he didn't know who the other party was.

"Ah!"

Chen Rui let out a terrified scream, scared into pressing tightly against the wall.

At this time, the first batch of Caohe Gang members finally woke up, and shouts and dog barks rose one after another.

Yin Qi turned around slowly, looking at Chen Rui with cold eyes.

Chen Rui felt his scalp go numb, his crotch wet and hot, and he said tremblingly, "Friend, if you want to kill Lv Xianba, then kill him. I have no relationship with him; I am from the Chen family. Also, others have been alarmed, you should leave quickly."

Yin Qi stepped forward step by step and suddenly said, "Brother Chen, you don't even recognize me?"

"It's you, Yin..."

Listening to the familiar voice, Chen Rui was horrified, his pupils widening.

Just as he was about to blurt out "Yin," Yin Qi had already made his move.

The blade light flashed, slashing down from Chen Rui's brow.

Chen Rui's pupils dissipated rapidly, and his body sat down slowly, leaning against the wall.

"Quick, quick!"

At this time, the first batch of Caohe Gang members arrived.

The two leaders were exactly the two who had followed Lv Xianba to the Li Family Building.

They held torches, looked at Lv Xianba's corpse on the ground, and were all shocked. I don't know who shouted, "He killed the Gang Leader, kill him, avenge the Gang Leader."

"Kill!"

A group of people rushed toward Yin Qi.

Yin Qi's eyes were brighter than ever, and he felt his blood boiling, eager to try.

So, he carried the knife and rushed up.

The Imperial Pole Blade Technique was worthy of being the top-tier blade technique in the Fengshen world. Yin Qi rushed into the crowd, simply as if entering no-man's land. Even two Bright Jin experts only lasted three or four moves before being killed.

Although the Caohe Gang had many members, there were few true martial arts experts; basically, they were all young and strong who knew some fist and kick techniques.

People kept pouring in from outside the courtyard, and people kept being killed.

Soon, the courtyard was littered with corpses, and blood flowed like a river.

Finally, the remaining members were killed until they were terrified, one by one throwing down their weapons and turning to flee.

"Run, this is a god of slaughter!"

"Dead, all dead!"

……

"Stop. Whoever runs first, I will kill first!"

Yin Qi shouted, deliberately changing his voice.

The remaining dozen or so members were like being immobilized, not daring to move again.

They were terrified, wanting to run but not daring to run.

If everyone ran, this god of slaughter definitely couldn't catch up, and most could escape.

But no one dared to run, or rather, no one dared to run first and sacrifice their own life for others.

Yin Qi said coldly, "All of you, come over and line up."

The crowd didn't dare to resist and could only stand in a row among the pile of dead bodies, bowing their heads one after another.

Yin Qi said coldly, "I came here originally only for money, it's just a pity that Lv Xianba refused to listen to advice and insisted on fighting with me, so I could only send him to see the King of Hell. You all wanted to fight with me without asking, so I could only fulfill you."

The dozen or so members showed smiles uglier than crying.

Big Brother, you killed so many people just for money?

You should have said so earlier!

Yin Qi's eyes were indifferent, scanning the crowd, "Now, can we talk properly?"

The dozen or so members nodded desperately.

Yin Qi said, "Who can tell me where your accounting office is, and where your Gang Leader's private vault is?"

Although he killed so many people, it was now the middle of the night, the government couldn't come, and others couldn't possibly come to find trouble, so Yin Qi was not in a hurry to leave.

He prepared to loot the Caohe Gang before leaving.

One reason was that he really needed money now, and some of his plans were inconvenient to tell Yin Chengtao, such as running a newspaper;

Another reason was to divert attention, making people mistakenly think he was a bandit who only sought money.

The Caohe Gang was fighting fiercely with the Yin family. Now that Lv Xianba was killed and even Chen Rui was dead, it would be hard for the Chen family not to suspect it was the Yin family.

But if it were for money, no one would suspect the Yin family.

Although Yin Qi changed his voice, it still sounded young, which was also the information he deliberately leaked: a young bandit, seeking money, cruel, using blade technique.

No matter which piece of information, one couldn't find a matching target in the Yin family.

"Big Hero, I know where the accounting office is!"

"Big Hero, I also know where the accounting office is!"

……

Everyone spoke up one after another.

Yin Qi frowned and said in a deep voice, "What about your Gang Leader's small vault?"

Everyone looked at each other.

A member gritted his teeth and said, "Big Hero, the Gang Leader's small vault must be in his room. No one in our gang doesn't know that the Gang Leader loves to save silver dollars in Yufenghe, exchanging them for silver notes, and his room is never allowed to be entered by anyone. Previously, a brother stepped in half a step by accident and was beaten to death alive by the Gang Leader."

"Good. All of you, go in and search!"

Yin Qi's eyes lit up.

He was originally worried about how he would take away too many silver dollars.

If it were silver notes, it would be easy.

Facing Yin Qi's coercion, the crowd didn't dare to hesitate and rushed into Yin Qi's room, starting to rummage through boxes and cabinets.

"Found it!"

Someone exclaimed.

Soon, a sandalwood-colored box the size of a first-aid kit was moved in front of Yin Qi.

The lid had already been opened. Under the torchlight, treasures were overflowing; below was a thick stack of silver notes, and above were all kinds of jewelry and gold ornaments.

With a "bang," Yin Qi closed the lid.

His cold gaze swept over the crowd, and everyone's original greed instantly dissipated, their bodies feeling cold.

"Go, go to the accounting office!"

"Yes, yes, Big Hero!"

Led by the crowd, Yin Qi came to the accounting office and found quite a few silver dollars and copper coins here.

Considering the weight issue, he only wrapped a large package with cloth, weighing about a hundred pounds.

In reality, it wasn't much, probably two or three thousand silver dollars.

As for the remaining silver dollars, there were probably four or five thousand.

"I can't take these silver dollars, you all can split them."

Yin Qi said, turned and left, and soon disappeared into the darkness.

The crowd looked at each other, having both the joy of surviving the disaster and the confusion of sudden wealth. Looking at the silver dollars shining with silver light, they swallowed their saliva one after another.

"Let's split them equally, immediately disperse and leave, and leave the city early tomorrow morning!"

…………

On the way home, Yin Qi threw the knife into the river, then took off the night suit, rolled it into a ball, and threw it into the river as well.

Only then did he quietly return to the Yin Mansion and enter his own courtyard.

Lighting a candle, Yin Qi took off his clothes, scrubbed the bloodstains clean, and hung them outside to dry.

By tomorrow, there wouldn't be any traces left.

After doing all this, he began to organize his harvest.

He counted the silver dollars, almost two thousand.

The big head was the wooden box, totaling thirty-five pieces of gold jewelry, thirty-three pieces of jade, twenty-two pieces of pearl jewelry, and others, such as bloodstone, sapphire, etc.

These were all of top quality, otherwise, they couldn't have become Lv Xianba's collection.

Under the jewelry were silver notes. After taking them out, Yin Qi discovered that there were quite a few land deeds, including over a thousand mu of fertile land, twelve houses, and more than twenty various shops.

As for the silver notes, they were all large-denomination silver notes of one hundred taels, totaling thirty-five thousand taels. ===== CHAPTER 25 =====
