Chapter 37: I’ll Scatter Your Ashes for You
It was a dark and stormy night, perfect for murder.
Dressed in black and wearing a bamboo hat, Zhou Chen was like a spirit in the night, silently heading towards Shi Bao Yu’s Residence.
As the only son of Shi Lei, the Branch Master of the Salt Gang’s Qing He Branch, Shi Bao Yu had his own residence, right next to the branch headquarters.
As a Constable in Qing He City, Zhou Chen was well-informed about these important figures.
Shi Bao Yu usually had a Body Refinement Second Level bodyguard by his side, and there were many Salt Gang guards in his residence. It wouldn’t be easy for ordinary people to kill him.
“Young Master, please slow down!”
“I’m not drunk! There’s a top-quality young lady waiting for me at home, hehe…”
A sleazy voice came. Zhou Chen raised his eyebrows. He didn’t expect that Shi Bao Yu was still fooling around outside in the middle of the night.
“It seems you won’t be able to dote on your top-quality young lady tonight!”
Zhou Chen sneered inwardly. He had already spotted Shi Bao Yu and his group.
Shi Bao Yu was drunk, supported by two servants. Beside him was a burly old man and two guards.
The old man was a Body Refinement Second Level Martial Artist, said to be close to Body Refinement Third Level, with a strength of eight to nine thousand catties.
But in Zhou Chen’s eyes, one strike was enough!
“Dry weather, be careful of fire!”
Just as Zhou Chen was about to charge forward and launch a surprise attack, the night watchman came by with a lantern. Zhou Chen paused.
By the time the night watchman left, Shi Bao Yu and his group had turned a corner and arrived at their doorstep.
“In that case, I’ll let you be buried at home. Consider it my greatest kindness to you!”
Zhou Chen didn’t care.
Whether it was on the road outside or inside Shi Bao Yu’s house, it made no difference to him.
His strength completely overwhelmed Shi Bao Yu and all his guards and bodyguards.
“Feng Xia, help me become invisible!”
Zhou Chen instructed.
Ji Feng Xia’s cultivation in the Wind and Moon Mirror had been progressing rapidly, especially with Zhou Chen’s strong support, she was advancing by leaps and bounds.
She had already reached Qi Refinement Fifth Level.
Although in a real fight, Ji Feng Xia was definitely no match for him, but in terms of support, she was much stronger than Zhou Chen.
Back when Ji Feng Xia was at Qi Refinement Third Level, she was able to silently deceive Zhou Chen, who had just advanced to Body Refinement Second Level, leading him into the woods for a sneak attack.
“Yes, Master!”
Ji Feng Xia’s ghostly technique was activated, and Zhou Chen followed Shi Bao Yu into the residence without anyone noticing, neither Shi Bao Yu nor the other bodyguards.
Creak.
The gate closed, and two guards stood at the entrance.
“Hehe, little lady, I’m here!”
Back home, Shi Bao Yu seemed to have sobered up a lot, rushing towards a room with excitement on his face.
Seeing Shi Bao Yu so excited, Zhou Chen followed leisurely behind him and soon arrived in front of a bedroom.
“Young Master, you’re here!”
The two servants guarding the door hurriedly bowed, nodding and scraping, with flattering expressions.
“Are my beauties ready?”
“Don’t worry, Young Master. They’ve been ready for a long time, just waiting for you to enjoy them slowly!”
“Good!”
Shi Bao Yu nodded in satisfaction. The two servants opened the door, and he strode into the room, rubbing his hands.
Zhou Chen followed him in openly.
The two servants closed the door.
Ji Feng Xia’s ghostly technique sealed the room. No matter what happened inside, no one outside would notice, let alone the two servants who had already been affected by the ghostly technique.
“My beauty, I’ve kept you waiting!”
Unaware of the danger that had arrived, Shi Bao Yu excitedly walked towards the large bed in the bedroom. A woman was lying on the bed.
Although he could only see her face, her pure and refined appearance was enough to arouse any man’s desire for possession.
Shi Bao Yu came to the bed and was about to lift the blanket when someone patted him on the shoulder.
“Who?”
Shi Bao Yu reacted quickly, throwing a punch with his backhand.
Crack!
Zhou Chen grabbed his fist and twisted.
With this twist, seventy thousand catties of force were applied.
Shi Bao Yu screamed, his arm twisted into a braid, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead as he roared ferociously, “Help! Help me…”
“Go ahead and shout. Even if you shout until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save you!”
Zhou Chen initially wanted to kill Shi Bao Yu with one strike, but the moment he entered the room, his anger surged. He couldn’t let Shi Bao Yu die too easily.
In addition to a huge bed, there were various props and torture devices on a shelf beside it.
Ordinary props were nothing. Zhou Chen had played with them at Snow Moon Workshop and Zhang Long’s house, even in the Wind and Moon Mirror with Ji Feng Xia. But those torture devices were perverted.
Not to mention anything else.
Just look at the rope connected between the two pillars.
It was similar to the rope Xiao Long Nü used to sleep on, but Zhou Chen knew that Shi Bao Yu didn’t use it for sleeping.
Zhou Chen thought of the rope torture inflicted on Gu Xiao Meng, played by Zhou Xun, after she was captured in the movie “The Message” from his previous life.
No wonder Zhou Chen had heard that Shi Bao Yu had tortured many maidservants and innocent women to death.
How many could withstand these things?
Crack, crack, crack!
Zhou Chen’s anger kept rising as he slowly twisted Shi Bao Yu’s other arm into a braid.
“Ahhhh, no… Please… Spare me…”
Shi Bao Yu was in tears, begging frantically.
“You seem to enjoy playing, let’s play slowly!”
Zhou Chen grinned, reaching out to take a steel clamp from the shelf.
“Where do you think this clamp should be used?”
Zhou Chen squeezed the steel clamp. The force was quite strong, but the coldness in his eyes was even stronger as he looked Shi Bao Yu up and down.
“No… No…”
Shi Bao Yu trembled all over. He was excited when this thing was used on others, but thinking about it being used on himself made his skin crawl and sent chills down his spine.
“Please, spare me. My father is the Branch Master of the Salt Gang. Whatever you want, I’ll give it to you!”
Shi Bao Yu pleaded with his eyes. Since no one came to rescue him at this time, it was obvious that Zhou Chen had used special means. He could only beg for mercy.
Once he escaped, he would take revenge on Zhou Chen a hundredfold, a thousandfold, and inflict all the tortures on him, making him wish he were dead.
“Right, there’s a peerless beauty here, I haven’t touched her yet, she’s still a virgin. I’ll give her to you, you can play with her however you want…”
Shi Bao Yu turned his head to gesture towards the beauty on the bed, trying to divert attention.
Zhou Chen was a man.
Wouldn’t playing with a beauty be more interesting than playing with him?
“How can a person like you change? Huh?”
Zhou Chen suddenly exerted force with his arm.
Rip!
Shi Bao Yu’s arm was torn off!
“Ah!”
Shi Bao Yu screamed, his body trembling like a sieve. But in order to survive, he still endured the pain and kept pleading, “Spare me, hero, I was wrong. I will definitely change. I will be a good person from now on, building bridges and paving roads every day, opening granaries to help the poor, and never doing bad things again. Please give me another chance, hero, let me redeem myself…”
“It seems you’re not just good at torturing women…”
A strange look appeared in Zhou Chen’s eyes. He was a little impressed by Shi Bao Yu.
If this kid didn’t die, he would definitely be able to inherit his father’s business.
You could say he was bad, but you couldn’t say he was useless!
Such a person deserved to die even more!
“A person like you will never change!”
“Only death!”
Zhou Chen’s fingers tightened, snapping Shi Bao Yu’s neck with a crack.
“Ugh!”
Shi Bao Yu’s body twitched, his tongue stuck out, and he died.
Zhou Chen reached into his bosom and felt around, finding a stack of silver notes.
“As expected of the son of a landlord, he’s rich!”
Zhou Chen glanced at it roughly. It was probably over a thousand taels.
He was really rich!
“Feng Xia, come out and clean up!”
Zhou Chen shouted in his mind. A ball of Yin Fire appeared, burning Shi Bao Yu to ashes, leaving nothing behind.
But Ji Feng Xia didn’t show up.
“Master, there are two boxes of gold and silver and several secret manuals in the cabinet next to it!”
Ji Feng Xia said to Zhou Chen from within the Wind and Moon Mirror.
“Excellent!”
The corners of Zhou Chen’s mouth curled up slightly. He walked over and opened the cabinet, putting all the secret manuals and gold and silver inside into the Wind and Moon Mirror.
With Ji Feng Xia’s help, Zhou Chen even found the treasures in the secret room.
After looting everything, Zhou Chen came to the bed and looked at the beauty who had been captured by Shi Bao Yu!
The beauty’s big eyes seemed to have light in them.
Her skin was fair, her features delicate, and she had a natural air of purity and refinement.
No wonder Shi Bao Yu rushed back in the middle of the night to get her after drinking at the brothel.
She was truly a stunning beauty.
“What’s your name?”
“My name is Ru Yi.”
