#263 - Chapter 262 Invincible Qigong!
Bang!
The tree trunk beneath the man's feet instantly snapped, causing the surrounding leaves to rustle.
The moment the sound rang out, a black shadow hurtled forth, the sharp scimitar slicing through the air with a faint hum.
In the distance, Li Chenqiu's scalp tightened. The arm hidden in his sleeve transformed into steel in an instant. His left foot stepped back, pulling his torso to the side as he dodged backward, simultaneously raising his arm to block in front of him.
At the same time, Xiang Nanzhi appeared out of nowhere above Li Chenqiu's head, falling towards the ground, positioning herself directly in the path of the middle-aged man's attack.
Xiang Nanzhi raised an eyebrow, watching the black shadow rushing towards her. She subconsciously raised her hand and waved it. Her seemingly weak and powerless hand collided with the man's chest.
Bang!
A visible shockwave spread out, and before the man could react, he flew straight back, crashing back and forth on the ground before slamming into a tree trunk, his life hanging in the balance.
"Huh?" Xiang Nanzhi scratched her head with a bewildered expression, looking at Li Chenqiu, "Who is he?"
Li Chenqiu retracted his arm: "I don't know. Before I could even turn my head, he was already flying away."
As he spoke, Li Chenqiu walked towards the man's location, with Xiang Nanzhi following behind.
The two walked to the tree trunk, pulled out the man with a completely collapsed chest, and threw him on the ground.
Li Chenqiu asked condescendingly, "Who are you, and why did you attack me?"
The stubble-faced man weakly raised his head, looking at Xiang Nanzhi in disbelief, "You… how could you… be so str…"
Before the man could finish the word "strong", Xiang Nanzhi slapped him.
Smack!
Xiang Nanzhi sternly scolded, "Are you deaf? Who are you, and why are you running around like a lunatic in the middle of the night? Confess now!"
The man covered his face, shrinking back in fear, "I am a prisoner from this prison, just passing by…"
A trace of impatience flashed in Li Chenqiu's eyes as he kicked the man's groin.
Crack!
It was the sound of eggs breaking.
"Ahhh!"
The man's eyes widened instantly, his mouth forming an "O" shape. He clenched his legs together, clutching his groin and letting out a miserable scream.
Li Chenqiu squatted down and said calmly, "You have five things on your body that can be crushed. Now two are gone. That leaves your eyeballs and your head. If you don't want those three to be crushed as well, then say something that will make me believe you, okay?"
The man's body, which had uncontrollably straightened, bent back again, his face contorted as he bit his lip, with blood faintly flowing out, looking as if he was enduring immense pain.
Li Chenqiu smiled faintly, picked up the fallen scimitar, and stabbed it towards the man's left eye.
"I'll talk, I'll talk!"
Just as the tip of the knife was about to pierce him, the man shouted loudly. The cold glinting tip of the knife stopped a hair's breadth away from his dilated pupil.
Li Chenqiu twisted his wrist, placing the blade against the man's chin: "Speak."
The man's Adam's apple bobbed as he endured the intense pain and said, "My name is Lan Yueshan. You should have heard of me, right?"
Li Chenqiu's gaze narrowed slightly, and he nodded.
Ji Mu had told him about this name. One of the Five Great Evildoers, he and his sister Lan Pangyue controlled the prison's supermarket.
This supermarket was different from the supermarkets outside. It had auctions, trades, sales, bounties, etc. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a chamber of commerce.
Li Chenqiu asked in a cold voice, "Why did you want to kill me?"
Smack!
Xiang Nanzhi slapped him: "Hurry up and talk!"
Lan Yueshan honestly confessed, "It… it was Warden Ji Min who sent me."
"Ji Min?" Li Chenqiu frowned slightly: "I have no grievances with him. Why would he want to kill me?"
Lan Yueshan said with an innocent expression, "I don't know, but I guess it might be because of your spirit artifact."
Li Chenqiu tilted his head and asked, "Are you saying he's jealous of my spirit artifact?"
Lan Yueshan shook his head: "Not him, the person above him."
"The person above him?" A trace of doubt flashed between Li Chenqiu's eyebrows: "Who is the person above him?"
"I don't know that either. I've told you everything I know. Please, let me go!" Lan Yueshan pleaded humbly.
Li Chenqiu looked suspicious: "Are you really telling me everything?"
Lan Yueshan nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Really."
Li Chenqiu smiled faintly: "Thank you."
Lan Yueshan was overjoyed when he heard this and was about to say something when Li Chenqiu gripped the scimitar tightly and slashed it horizontally towards his neck.
Pfft—
Bang!
The head landed on the ground.
Lan Yueshan's eyes widened, looking at Li Chenqiu in disbelief, but this emotion did not last long and soon turned into dimness.
Li Chenqiu tore off Lan Yueshan's clothes and carefully wrapped the head in them.
Xiang Nanzhi asked in confusion, "What are you collecting heads for?"
"Hobby." Li Chenqiu replied indifferently, then carefully placed the head back into his backpack.
Xiang Nanzhi looked at Li Chenqiu speechlessly and asked, "What are you planning to do next?"
Li Chenqiu stood up, wiped the blood splattered on his hands with his prison uniform, and said coldly, "They all want to kill me. What do you think I can do? If I don't eradicate them, I won't be able to sleep or eat in peace."
Xiang Nanzhi said with a smile, "To be able to order around a warden of a prison, the person behind them is not simple!"
Li Chenqiu didn't say anything, but his gaze gradually turned cold.
After packing up, the two relied on their memory to walk towards the prison gate.
After walking for about ten minutes, Xiang Nanzhi's ears twitched, and she suddenly stopped, turning her head to look in a certain direction.
Li Chenqiu looked back and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Did you hear Zhou Qinshu's screams?"
…
"Ahhh!"
Zhou Qinshu slapped his burning buttocks and sprinted through the forest with Qi Mingyue, running and shouting.
Behind them, seven or eight prisoners gradually approached them in a fan shape. The bearded man at the head spread his hands, and two balls of fire emerged from his palms, occasionally throwing them forward.
This forced Zhou Qinshu and Qi Mingyue to display serpentine movements, dodging the fireballs coming from behind.
"You two brats, stop for me!"
"Now it's your butts burning, but soon it will be your heads!"
The pursuers shouted loudly.
Zhou Qinshu said with a pained expression, "Mingyue, my butt can't take it anymore. You run. I'll hold them back for you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Qinshu's left foot suddenly stopped, and his right foot, with his left foot as the center, turned a circle like a drift, facing the crowd.
"You really don't know death, watch my invincible Qi Gong!"
Zhou Qinshu shouted with great momentum, assuming a horse stance, with the first and second joints of his ten fingers bent at ninety degrees and his wrists close together, pushing forward.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
The swift gale was like a mountain torrent, rushing down for miles!
Whirling up the stones and branches on the ground, they shot out violently, making sharp cracking sounds.
Before the pursuers could react, they were knocked to the ground, slamming hard into the surrounding trees.
"Ah?"
Zhou Qinshu looked at this scene with a dumbfounded expression.
Did I do this?
