Chapter 47: Big Brother, Can You Lend Me Money?

  Yang Quan walked up, first casting a cold glance at Xia Chen, exuding a venomous aura, then turned to Li Qiu Tong: "I thought it was someone else who had the audacity to beat up my Yang family member in broad daylight? It turns out it's someone instigated by Miss Li! Hmph, our Yang family hasn't even looked for trouble with your Li family yet, but you people from the Li family dare to provoke us first?"

  Li Qitong did not deny that she had just met Xia Chen, and coldly said: "Yang Quan, these two beasts under your command have been bullying people for a long time. I've been looking down on them for a while now. If I beat them up, it's what they deserve. What can you do about it?"

  Xia Chen's heart moved slightly. It was only the first meeting, but Li Qiu Tong actually agreed to stand up for him, a guest at their door, against Yang's family's questioning. This girl, wasn't bad.

  "Li Qiting!" Yang's eyes grew colder, "Your Li family is on the brink of collapse, and will be destroyed soon. You, a spoiled little girl, dare to provoke me? Is this kid your accomplice? Today, I'll kill him right in front of you!"

  "How dare you!" Li Qiu Tong angrily said, "Yang Quan, how dare you move against my people?"

  "How dare you move my people?" Yang Quan's evil smile, "I will move you! Li Xiu Tong, you're just in time, I'm tired of playing with those women lately, thinking of finding a new plaything to train, and you'll be my new plaything, anyway, after my Yang family destroys your Li family, you and your sister Li Ya Tong can't avoid being played with, today I'll give you a taste of freshness!"

  "Second Master, this second young lady from the Li family is so beautiful and delicate, it must be very enjoyable to ride her. Why not bring that older sister over as well, and have these two sisters serve you together in bed? Wouldn't that be a heavenly delight?" A servant said with a flattering leer.

  "No problem, these two little girls won't escape my grasp." Yang Quan snapped his fingers, "The Li family will be eliminated by me, the Yang family, sooner or later. After I'm done playing with these two little girls, I'll give them to you as a reward. You can play with them however you want, and when you're tired of them, sell them to a brothel to make money for us!"

  "Haha! Thank you, Second Master!" The servants all burst out laughing together.

  "Shameless people, I'll kill you all." Li Qitong was so angry that her whole body trembled with rage, her pretty face flushed bright red, and she summoned her true energy to charge forward.

  She was just a simple girl after all, how could she stand the ridicule of this group of rascals.

  "Xu He, Xu Bing, go and experience Miss Li's skills for yourselves. I've heard that the two girls from the Li family are geniuses at martial arts. You must be careful, but also be gentle with them, these delicate bodies as lovely as flowers, if you hurt them, it won't be fun to play with."

  When Li Qitong was about to take action, Yang Quan hastily retreated. He had only cultivated his true energy sense and didn't dare to come forward, but his mouth continued to spout filthy language.

  "Yes, Second Master, rest assured that we will capture this woman unharmed and hand her over to you." Xǔ Hè and Xǔ Bīng said in unison, advancing towards Lǐ Kuìtóng like two iron towers.

  Li Qitong's face changed, she was filled with anger, but the other party's strength was there, two late-stage first-class cultivators, she could at most contend with one person, if both came up together, it would naturally be a defeat without a doubt.

  Taking a step back, Li Qiu Tong said in a low voice: "Xiao Chenzi, I'll hold them off, you hurry and run, I'll follow right after. This place is not far from the Li residence, as long as you can make it to the nearby area, we won't have to be afraid of them."

  "Want to leave? Xu He, you hold onto Li Qiu Tong, Xu Bing, you go kill that little brat first. Whoever dares to hit me, I'll have them left dead on the streets!" Before Xia Chen could even respond, Yang Quan had already seen through Li Qiu Tong's plan and immediately gave a vicious wave of his hand.

  Xu Bing immediately approached Xia Chen, clenching his fists and sneering: "You little brat, you're to blame for not having eyes, daring to provoke the people who invited our two young masters. Prepare to die!"

  "Xu, don't kill the kid so quickly." The two house servants' eyes gleamed with malice, "Let's torture him to death, make him die slowly in agony!"

  "Little dust, run quickly!" Li Qitong was so anxious that she stomped her feet.

  "Big brother, do you want to borrow money?" Xia Chen suddenly asked Xu Bing.

  "Huh? Everyone was stunned, thinking that this kid must be mentally abnormal. At a time like this, he actually asked someone to lend him money with a straight face. Does he think that if he borrows money, others will let him off?"

  Xu Bing was also stunned, and then sneered: "Little boy, I don't lend money, it's better to borrow your head as a ball to kick." As he spoke, his big hand reached out to grab Xia Chen fiercely.

  Bang!

  Before he could even stretch out his hand halfway, a silver ingot weighing at least five taels shot out from Xia Chen's hand and heavily hit him on the forehead.

  "Ah!" Xu Bing retreated several steps, sat down on the ground with a thud, covering his forehead, and fresh blood flowed out from between his fingers.

  "Big brother, I think it's better if you borrow money from me, I have a lot of money, I can lend it to you!" Xia Chen said calmly, holding five taels of silver in his hand, which he slapped against Xu Bing's head one after another.

  He seemed to have only one silver ingot in his hand, but no matter how many he threw out, it never diminished.

  "Bastard!" Xu Bing furiously bellowed, struggling to get up and charge forward, but was immediately knocked back down by the gleaming silver.

  That silver ingot was not only extremely heavy, but also had a terrifying force. When it hit his body, the skin immediately burst open, the muscles snapped, and the bones broke. In an instant, Xu Bing fell to the ground, with a large pile of silver on top of him, and he had no signs of life left.

  Everyone was shocked and stared at Xia Chen, taking a deep breath. Everyone says they like being showered with money, but if they were really killed by it, that would be very bad.

  "Hurry up! Hurry!" Yang Quan's face changed greatly, knowing that he had provoked an existence that he couldn't afford to provoke.

  The crowd was in a state of panic and rushed around Yang Quan, ready to flee.

  "I haven't even gotten back my interest, and you think you can just leave?" Xia Chen said with a cold smile.

  He scattered silver coins lavishly, like raindrops sprinkling on the heads and bodies of the crowd. Anyone who got hit would instantly fall to the ground with a pained cry, their body splattered with fresh blood, and then lie there silently.

  In the blink of an eye, only Yang Quan was left standing on the spot, his whole body trembling.

  Yang Quan was so frightened that his whole body trembled, and with a thud, he knelt down on the ground: "Young master, I have eyes but no pearls, I rushed into you, I apologize to you, I kneel down for you, I kowtow to you, please don't kill me, I beg of you, as long as you don't kill me, our Yang family can give you any compensation, whatever you want."

  "Second Master, you're joking, how could I kill you?" Xia Chen smiled slightly, "I still want to lend you some silver, no need to return it, really, no need to return it, see if I'm good or not."

  His gentle voice sounded in Yang Quan's ears like the devil's whisper.

  "I won't lend you money, I really won't!" Yang Quan's face turned green and he waved his hands repeatedly, "I'm not short of money, little brother, let me go, please, if you kill me, the Yang family will definitely take bloody revenge..."

  "No way!" Xia Chen's face turned cold, interrupting him, "Yang Quan, today this money you have to borrow, whether you like it or not!" As he spoke, his hand made a swift and fierce motion, and countless silver coins were instantly thrown out.

  Yang Quan was knocked to the ground, screaming. As he lost all consciousness, his mind still shouted: I don't want to borrow your money, I really don't want to borrow it...

  Xia Chen patted his hand, turned his head to look at Li Qiu Tong, whose eyes were wide open and mouth agape, and smiled faintly: "Second Miss, killing these people won't get you into any trouble, will it?"

  Li Qitong stared blankly at him, suddenly raised her small hand and slapped Xia Chen's shoulder with a loud "pa": "I didn't expect you to be so powerful! Xiao Chenzi, I really underestimated you. Tell me the truth, have you already entered the Post-Heaven Second Realm?"

  Xia Chen was startled by her sudden movement and nodded with a bitter smile, thinking "Miss, you scared me to death!"

  Li Qitong's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands with a laugh: "Great! I didn't expect to find a posthumous second-ranker as a door guest. This time when I go back, even in front of my dad and sister, I'll have plenty of face."

  Xia Chen smiled slightly, earlier Li Qiu Tong had protected him with all her heart when Yang Quan wanted to kill him, even letting him escape first, his heart was filled with good feelings.

  "Right, Xiao Chenzi." Li Qiu Tong seemed to have thought of something and said nervously, "Although your cultivation is higher than mine, you still promised to be my guest! You can't go back on your word, you have to listen to me!"

  She saw a sly and tense expression on her face, but it looked very cute, and she couldn't help but feel a flutter in her heart: "I've already agreed to you, how could I not listen to you, I'm just afraid you won't want me."

  Li Qitong was overjoyed and smiled slyly: "How could I not want you? You're a rare treasure now, Xiaochenzhi, come home with me."

  Xia Chen nodded and casually pointed at Yang Quan and others on the ground: "These guys won't cause any trouble, will they?"

  Li Qitong sneered, "What trouble could there be? These scoundrels have been running amok for so many years, they should've died long ago! Besides, who would know we killed them? But Xiao Chenzi, I really didn't expect that with your small stature, you'd have so much silver. Where did you put it all?"

  Xia Chen asked in a soft voice: "Second Miss, why is the Yang family targeting the Li family like this? Is it just to annex the Li family?"

  Li Qitong shook her head and said, "No, I'm not very clear about the specific reason either. My father was afraid that I would worry, so he didn't tell me, but I vaguely heard some things, it seems to be for a very important treasure."

  Xia Chen Dao said, "Right, Second Miss, about the matter of killing Yang Quan and those people, please don't mention it to anyone. If your family members ask, just say that Yang's house servants bullied me and you helped me out, I really don't want to stir up trouble."

  "Of course, you're now one of us, I'll definitely keep your secret." Li Qiu Tong nodded seriously.

  Two people walked eastward along the road and soon saw a courtyard.

  "We're here! This is our Li family!" said Li Qiu Tong.

  Xia Chen followed her into the courtyard, looking around left and right. Although this mansion was far from being as grand and magnificent as the Zhengxuan Sect, it was still considered a wealthy household in Fenglin City.

  "Second Miss has returned!" The two gatekeepers exclaimed in unison.

  "Where's my dad?" Li Qitong asked.

  "Second Miss, Master is in the hall, and Eldest Miss is also there!" a servant said.

  "Oh, my sister is here too?" Li Qiting jumped up and down excitedly. "Xiao Chenzi, come on, let's go see my dad and my sister. My sister has become really beautiful, but don't get any ideas when you see her, she's already engaged!"

  Xia Chen could only silently remain silent.

  "Qī Tóng, where have you been? Why are you only coming back now? Don't you know it's a critical time right now? The Yang family is causing trouble for our Li family, and with all the danger outside, you're still running around everywhere?" A shrill female voice rang out.
