Chapter 226: Ruthless and Cruel

“The thugs from Love Fire Bar were too vicious, they really deserved to die. Jiang Xinyu was such a pretty girl, yet he still dared to hurt her badly. Is he even a man?”

“Keep your voice down, don’t speak so loudly. Be careful or he’ll hear you, then we’re finished. He dared to hurt such a beautiful girl, let alone us.”

“Wang Licui is no good, and Li Dao is no good either. Just because someone didn’t want to marry her useless son, she ordered such a vicious attack. How shameless can they be?”

…

Faced with this terrible tragedy, many onlookers couldn’t help but complain, and their voices grew louder. However, Li Dao ignored them completely and continued to kick and stomp fiercely, paying no attention to the discussions around him.

Jiang Xinyu’s petite body gradually stopped trembling, and she could no longer even scream. Song Ru wanted to take Jiang Xinyu’s place and receive Li Dao’s kicks, but Jiang Xinyu stopped her, and she couldn’t turn over no matter how hard she tried. Seeing Jiang Xinyu gritting her teeth in pain, Song Ru couldn’t hold back her tears: “Please let my daughter go, please let Xinyu go. You can have everything in our house, take whatever you want, we won’t stop you. It’s all my fault, I was foolish to try and stop you. If you want to hit someone, hit me instead.”

“It’s too late. I just want to kick you now. Damn it, you dared to go against us, you’re really asking for death.” Li Dao laughed loudly and raised his foot to continue kicking.

“Li Dao, I will kill your entire family!”

At that moment, a fierce roar came from several thousand meters away. Along with the roar, a figure moved like lightning, speeding over from the distance. In just a few dozen breaths, the figure crossed hundreds of meters and appeared before everyone.

Leaping into the air and jumping dozens of meters, Jiang Xincheng’s eyes flashed with cold light. The Bamboo Grove Sword rang out as it was drawn, and a Bamboo Leaf Sword Qi shot out. Under Li Dao’s terrified gaze, it directly cut off the right leg that was kicking toward Jiang Xinyu.

“Ah…”

Li Dao looked at his bleeding right leg and couldn’t help but scream. Jiang Xincheng moved like a streak of light, landing beside Jiang Xinyu and Song Ru. He slapped his palm heavily toward Li Dao.

“Smack…”

Amid the piercing sound, Li Dao’s other leg was also shattered by Jiang Xincheng. He fell dozens of meters away, screaming and unable to get up.

The surroundings immediately fell silent. Everyone stared at Jiang Xincheng in shock, and for a moment, no one spoke.

“Brother…”

Seeing that it was Jiang Xincheng who had arrived, Jiang Xinyu weakly called out. After saying that, she immediately fainted. Jiang Xincheng’s face changed, and he quickly picked up Jiang Xinyu in his arms, then helped Song Ru to her feet.

“How is Xinyu? Is she okay? Call an ambulance quickly.” Song Ru looked at Jiang Xinyu with panic and worry. Jiang Xincheng used his Spiritual Sense to check and then sighed in relief: “Mom, Xinyu is fine. They’re just some surface wounds. She can go to the hospital for treatment. You call the hospital, and I’ll see who was so bold as to bully you like this.”

Jiang Xincheng handed Jiang Xinyu to Song Ru’s arms, then turned his icy gaze toward Li Dao, who was lying on the ground screaming and rolling, and toward the group of Love Fire Bar thugs who had been drawn out by Li Dao’s screams.

“Lord Jiang, we’re sorry, we won’t dare to do it again. Please let us go. We were just following orders. If you want to blame someone, blame that old witch Wang Licui.”

Releasing Sword Qi to hurt someone from a distance was a powerful technique that only a Great Yuan Warrior of the Cloud Condensation Realm could master. How could Li Dao not recognize it? Even though both his legs were broken, Li Dao forced himself to endure the pain, lay on the ground, and apologized to Jiang Xincheng, begging him to spare his life.

Looking at Li Dao’s pleading face, Jiang Xincheng showed a cold smile. He slapped with his right hand, and a surge of Primordial Force shot out, directly shattering Li Dao’s right arm: “Was hitting my mom and sister also following orders? Li Dao, I won’t kill you today. I will break your limbs, destroy your Primordial Force, and then heal you, so you’ll live in pain and despair for the rest of your life. Oh, and don’t you have a wife and a son? Your father is still alive too, right? When you go back, check to see if your son is really yours or if he’s your father’s. By the way, they will soon become cripples too. I’ll make sure they can never cultivate Primordial Force again, and I’ll break one of their legs and one of their arms as punishment for you.”

“No, disasters shouldn’t involve family. You can’t do this.” Jiang Xincheng’s words made Li Dao shiver all over. He had no doubt about the words of a Great Yuan Warrior of the Cloud Condensation Realm. With the strength of a Great Yuan Warrior of the Cloud Condensation Realm, achieving this would be no trouble at all.

Jiang Xincheng sneered: “That sounds nice, ‘disasters shouldn’t involve family,’ but have you forgotten what you just did to my mom and sister?” With a fierce roar, Jiang Xincheng slapped again, shattering Li Dao’s left arm and turning him into a complete cripple. Li Dao almost passed out from the pain.

If he hadn’t been worried about his family, Li Dao would have fainted already: “Jiang Xincheng, I beg you, kill me or cut me up however you want. You can even slice me into a thousand pieces, but please don’t harm my family. Don’t touch my wife, son, or father.”

“Don’t you think it’s too late to say that now? And you should first make sure if that’s really your son.” Jiang Xincheng paid no attention and slapped again, destroying Li Dao’s Dantian and Meridians, ensuring he could never cultivate Primordial Force again in his life.

This blow was the last straw. Li Dao directly fainted, his face full of regret.

After dealing with Li Dao, Jiang Xincheng turned to the group of thugs who had followed him. Seeing Jiang Xincheng’s icy gaze, they all immediately knelt on the ground.

“Big brother, spare us! We won’t dare to do it again. Please let us go this once. Even if you gave us ten more guts, we wouldn’t dare in the future.”

“Li Dao made us do this. He was our boss, and we had to listen to him. Lord Jiang, spare our lives. We can do anything for you in the future.”

“We’re innocent too, and we didn’t hit your mom or sister. Please let us go.”

…

Jiang Xincheng’s cruel methods frightened the thugs, making them shiver all over and feel a chill down their spines. Looking at Li Dao, who was lying on the ground as a cripple, and thinking about the punishment Jiang Xincheng had just described for Li Dao’s family, they felt as if darkness was closing in on them.

Regret gnawed at them like maggots, rising wildly. Several thugs couldn’t help but kneel on the ground, crying and begging for Jiang Xincheng’s forgiveness. However, for these executioners who had smashed the Jiang Family’s General Store, which they relied on for a living, and destroyed the Jiang Family’s small courtyard, Jiang Xincheng would not let them off easily.
