Tian Mi, who was in mid-air, had no way to gain leverage, and her whole body flew backwards uncontrollably towards Yang Chong, as if she was throwing herself into his arms.
A pretty face as beautiful as a peach blossom and as terrifying as seeing a ghost appeared in Yang Chong's sight, and a slender neck had been captured by Yang Chong.
"No..." Only a desperate groan remained.
"Now that we are here, why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Yang Chong, who had captured Tian Mi with one hand, did not give her a chance to speak. While he was using the energy-absorbing technique, he would not waste the beauty in front of him. His eyes were full of love, the love of a hunter for his prey.
"Oh, oh..." Tian Mi grabbed Yang Chong's arm in pain, but the loss of strength made her unable to exert any strength at all. Her face, which was as beautiful as a peach, now turned pale.
At this moment, she understood what Tian Hu and Tian Meng had just encountered. How could there be such a horrible martial art in the world that could actually plunder other people's skills? The suction force from Yang Chong's palm directly sealed all the acupoints on Tian Mi's body. She could only watch her own skills slip away. The terrifying devouring power made her despair. It seemed that it was a power that could even devour souls.
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I'm still young, I'm a woman, I'm so beautiful, I still have so much..." Tian Mi was terrified and felt weaker and weaker until her consciousness fell into complete darkness.
"I really have to thank the Nong family for their gift this time." Yang Chong left Tian Mi, who only had half of her true energy left, and looked at the Nong family disciples who were either unconscious or groaning on the ground. Although they were not as good as Tian Meng, Tian Hu, or even Tian Mi, they were better in quantity. Taken together, they were equivalent to "Tian You Menghu".
"You don't know how to be gentle and considerate to women. It's such a pity to throw away such a lively and beautiful girl. What a pity." Yan Lingji glanced at Tian Mi who was casually thrown away by Yang Chong, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Logically speaking, she should be happy that Yang Chong was so indifferent to other women, but the thought of Yang Chong's determination made her feel a little uneasy. Such a Yang Chong made her feel a little strange. The young man in the past seemed to be drifting away from her. Now Yang Chong was just an ambitious man.
In Yang Chong, Yan Lingji saw the madness of her former master, the Prince of Baiyue, the Red-browed Dragon Snake.
“Isn’t there still a breath left?” Yang Chong said indifferently.
"With these people helping you in your practice, I think this time you can also become a master like those two Guigu disciples." Yan Lingji said, putting aside the distracting thoughts in her mind.
“My skills will be better than theirs by then, but when it comes to combat power, I’m afraid I’m not as good as the two of them. After all, I’m a disciple of Guiguzi, taught by a grandmaster, and majored in swordsmanship, which is an offensive technique. My skills, which I obtained by cheating, are strong in strength, but not in other aspects. However, as long as I can master the Nine Yin Scriptures, no one in Korea will be able to stop me.” Yang Chong was very calm, and did not become arrogant because of the improvement of his skills.
"It's already very powerful. You have only practiced for a few years, and you are younger than them." Yan Lingji said, and she looked relieved. Yang Chong did not have the arrogance that made her worry.
After Yang Chong had seen off all the disciples of the farming family, the villagers were awakened from their sleep. Seeing that the Yang family's house was on fire, they came forward with buckets and basins to put out the fire. The sharp-eyed people had already noticed the smell of blood wafting through the Yang family's house.
When they followed the smell of blood to the backyard, all they saw were corpses.
Qin Ming and others couldn't help but gasp when they saw this, and couldn't help feeling a little uneasy: Did they come to the wrong place this time? They should continue to sleep and not get into trouble like the one in Weijiazhuang.
Especially after seeing Yang Lin's body, the feeling of a familiar person dying in front of them made them feel that death was so close to them, and the chill in their hearts became even deeper.
It was not until they saw Yang Chong, Yan Lingji and Jiang Yi that Qin Ming and his companions felt a little relieved. In this backyard that seemed like a den of ghosts, seeing familiar people made them feel a little more alive and it didn't seem so scary anymore.
"Yang Chong, what happened?" Qin Ming stepped forward and asked Yang Chong, who had a heavy look on his face.
"I don't know. This group of thieves attacked at night and my father was caught off guard and died in the hands of the thieves." Yang Chong said as he covered Yang Lin's body with a white cloth.
"What about these people?" Qin Ming looked at the corpses all over the yard and felt even colder in his heart. Could it be that all this was because of Yang Chong?
"I killed them, but although I was able to kill those villains, I failed to save my father." Yang Chong's eyes turned red as he spoke, and there was a red light flashing in his eyes. Although he was in grief, Qin Ming saw a ferocious murderous aura in them.
Qin Ming had a hunch that the situation before him was definitely not as simple as Yang Chong said, but...
Thinking of the thieves, Qin Ming felt somewhat relieved. No matter whether what Yang Chong said was true or false, it was a good thing that all these thieves were killed by Yang Chong. Otherwise, no one could guarantee whether these thieves would attack the villagers.
"Alas, there was the disaster at Weijiazhuang before, and now there is the night attack by thieves. It is a troubled time, a troubled time." Qin Ming sighed.
Jiang Yi, who had been ignored from beginning to end, looked at the scene in front of him and opened his mouth subconsciously. It was not as simple as Yang Chong said. However, the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat. He saw clearly the scene where Yang Chong directly pierced Yang Lin's chest with his claws.
The determination and murderous intent displayed by Yang Chong at that moment made Jiang Yi feel cold all over whenever he recalled it. Moreover, Yang Lin was dead now, and there was no point in saying those things. What he cared about more now was what exactly Yang Chong wanted to do?
"Please ask Uncle Qin and others to help us deal with these bodies." Yang Chong said.
"The most important thing right now is to put out the fire. If it continues to burn like this, this yard will be lost." Qin Ming said.
It is a hot season now, but fortunately it is not as dry as winter. However, even so, it took a long time to put out the fire. Until dawn, amidst the charred remains, the Yang family was finally saved.
Chapter 72: Tai'a Sword Body, Soulless Sword
After the second half of the night, Yang Chong completely digested the true energy and true essence contributed by many disciples of the Nong family, and his strength was further improved. Now he also had time to deal with the affairs of Jiang Yi and his wife.
"Uncle Jiang, there are some things we need to talk about." Yang Chong said to Jiang Yi's family in the living room which had not yet returned to its original state.
"Young Master, you..." Jiang Nu, who had been in a daze for some time, opened her mouth, but was covered by her mother.
"Ms. Jiang, don't listen to this matter. Go to the backyard and help that person, otherwise she will burn down the kitchen." Yang Chong said.
"Ms. Jiang, please go ahead. Your father and I have some important matters to discuss with the young master." Ms. Jiang's hesitation was met with her mother's urging.
"Okay then." Jiang Nu was a little reluctant, but she had no choice but to listen.
The young master's father died. As a caring little maid, Jiang Nu could understand Yang Chong's current mood very well. She was still thinking about how to comfort her young master, but her mother didn't give her any chance at all.
Besides, I understand the young master's world less and less. Jiang Nv walked to the backyard with a sad face and felt confused about her future for the first time. Can't I even be a maid?
After Ms. Jiang left, the living room fell into silence.
Facing Yang Chong, both Jiang Yi and Jiang Meng felt a heavy pressure. Yang Chong could even kill Yang Lin, so how could he be merciful to them?
As for Jiang Nu? The Jiang family couple didn't believe that Jiang Nu's importance in Yang Chong's heart could surpass Yang Lin's.
But the current situation did not allow them any room to struggle. After Yang Chong wiped out all the disciples of the Nong family, they had already understood that even if the two of them were tied together, they would never be Yang Chong's opponent.
What's more troublesome is that Yang Chong's thoughts are unpredictable now. They have no idea what Yang Chong will do. Now they can only pray in their hearts, praying that Yang Chong will not kill them all for Jiang Nu's sake. But, does Jiang Nu really mean that much to Yang Chong?
While the Jiang couple were silent, Yang Chong suddenly pulled out the long sword on the table. The couple was startled and thought that Yang Chong was going to attack them, but for a long time they did not see Yang Chong take the next step.
The couple then looked towards Yang Chong, only to see that Yang Chong was holding the sword in one hand and holding it upright in front of him.
The sword was extremely long, more than four feet long including the hilt, and three fingers wide. The sword spine was thick, with a mysterious inscription imprinted on it, as if it was made by nature. It was not sharp, but it had a natural power. It was the sword that Yang Lin used to kill the enemy last night.
Tai'a! Yang Chong's eyes followed the sword to the end, and the integrated golden characters appeared in front of him. This was a sword that shouldn't be here.
"Is this sword Tai'a?" Yang Chong asked Jiang Yi. He didn't necessarily know more about the secrets of the Lu family than Jiang Yi.
"It is the legendary sword of great power, Tai'a." Jiang Yi was still in doubt, but his wife Jiang Meng took the initiative to answer Yang Chong's questions.
"I remember that the Taia sword was in the hands of Confucianism, and the Taia sword was thick and short, wide and simple, not a long sword like this." Yang Chong said.
The Tai'a Sword did not become the Emperor's Sword of Ying Zheng in Tianwen, and now that Canhong cannot transform into Yuanhong, it has the reputation of being the best sword in the world. It is very famous, and is also the sword of the leader of Confucianism. Its style is vaguely superior to the famous sword of Taoism, but in Yang Chong's memory, it is not the one in his hand.
Although the sword in his hand was also quite heavy, the blade was extremely long. It did not have the broad back and short body like the Tai'a sword in his impression, and the sword rhythm was not obvious. Although it was also a precious sword, it was not worthy of the title of a famous sword. Could it be an imitation?
"This sword is indeed Tai'a, but it is only half of Tai'a. The other half is the Confucian one." Jiang Meng said.
"A sword has ever been divided into two?" Yang Chong asked in surprise.
"The sword in the young master's hand is the Taia sword, a soulless sword." Jiang Meng explained.
"This sword was originally in the State of Chu, and later acquired by the State of Jin. When it appeared before the world again, it had become the sword of the leader of Confucianism. What happened between its journey from the State of Jin to Confucianism?" Yang Chong sheathed the sword.
"In those days, Duke Chu of Jin was dissatisfied with the monopoly of power of the three nobles of Zhao, Wei and Han in the country, so he fled from Jin. The first country he came to was Qi. In order to seek help from Qi, he presented the Tai'a sword to the young master's ancestor, Duke Ping of that time." Jiang Meng told Yang Chong the origin of the Tai'a sword.
"Then why did Tai'a become two swords with the current sword body and sword soul?" Yang Chong asked.
"Duke Xuan made a bet with the head of Confucianism. The head said that he could take the Tai'a sword away without touching it. Duke Ping didn't believe it, so he made the bet. But Duke Ping never thought that the head of Confucianism could use the Confucian spirit to attract the mighty soul of Tai'a and actually take the sword away without touching it. Then he reforged the sword body for Tai'a and injected the mighty soul into it, and thus the Confucian Tai'a was created. Nearly two hundred years have passed since the body and soul of Tai'a were separated." Jiang Meng said the secret about the Tai'a sword.
"So that's how it is. I never thought there would be such a story. Duke Ping of Qi was deceived by the head of Confucianism." Yang Chong shook his head and laughed. In the story just now, Duke Ping of Qi was not very smart, but the royal family of Qi at that time was indeed getting worse and worse.
"Young Master..." Jiang Yi tried to hold back, but finally couldn't help it. What exactly did Yang Chong want to do?
"Uncle Jiang should know that I am just Yang Chong, not Lu Chong, and certainly not your young master." Yang Chong waved his hand to stop Jiang Yi who was about to say something else.
"Young master knows everything?" Jiang Yi said in surprise but also with a sense of relief. Only in this way could he explain what happened last night. But how did Yang Chong know the truth, and where did he learn such terrifying martial arts?
"I know everything I should and shouldn't know. The matter of Xiliu Village ends here. I will leave here tomorrow, and you should leave too. The farmers have suffered such a big loss, which will only make them more certain of our existence. The next person to come might be the head of the farmers' family, or even those six old guys." Yang Chong said. Xiliu Village was just his starting point. Now that he has mastered martial arts, he can go anywhere in the world and naturally will not stay here anymore.
"Leave?" Jiang Meng was stunned when she heard this. Yang Chong's decision was beyond her expectations. In her opinion, no matter what Yang Chong's considerations were, he would not let them go so easily.
If Yang Chong minds Yang Lin's previous deception, then as they are Yang Lin's men, Yang Chong may not let them go. If Yang Chong wants to make the fake look real and confirm his identity, killing them to silence them is a better choice. No matter what Yang Chong plans, they are unlikely to survive.
But now Yang Chong told them to leave? Is Yang Chong a kind-hearted person? That was a terrible joke. Didn't they see how Yang Lin and the people from the farmer's family died?
"After all, you are Miss Jiang's parents, so let's forget about the murder. Besides, although Yang Lin only has schemes against me, I have been raised by him for so many years. Resentment is resentment, gratitude is gratitude. I might as well fulfill his wish this time." Yang Chong said.
"Fulfillment?" Jiang Yi couldn't believe it, and it was even harder to understand.
"Isn't it just for the sake of Qi Fu? No, to be more precise, it should be Lv Fuqi. What a vulgar name. Fu Qi? It's been two hundred years. The Qi State today is no longer the Qi State of the past. So what even if it is restored?" Yang Chong mocked. He sneered at the so-called national restoration cause of the Lu family and his son. For more than ten years, they only knew how to plot against a young boy who knew nothing in a village. They really thought they were wise and far-sighted.
"Restore him?" Jiang Yi opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
"If he doesn't come to bother me, I'll pretend he doesn't exist, but if he wants to bother me, I might as well give him a ride." Yang Chong said.
"Qi Fu is just Qi Fu, definitely not Lv Fuqi, and we only have one young master." Jiang Yi wanted to say something, but his wife Jiang Meng stood up and knelt in front of Yang Chong in Jiang Yi's shocked gaze.
"What are you going to do?" Jiang Yi was shocked when he saw his wife's actions.
"Aunt Jiang, please stand up. There is no young master here. There is only Yang Chong." Yang Chong helped Jiang Meng up. No wonder the woman in front of him could always control Jiang Yi. This decisiveness and determination were not comparable to someone like Jiang Yi. This woman was not simple.
"The young master is the young master. Only the young master is the successor of the six tribes of Emperor Yan and the true descendant of Taigong." Jiang Meng ignored Yang Chong's refusal, as if she had confirmed Yang Chong.
At this time, Jiang Meng was very clear that compared to Lu Fuqi's bloodline, Yang Chong was the one who could decide the fate of their family. Moreover, her daughter had a better relationship with Yang Chong. From this point of view, she had reason to rely on Yang Chong. What's more, Lu Fuqi was not qualified to be compared with Yang Chong. Lu Fuqi's advantage was just that he had a surname.
But is that surname really that important? A surname without strength is just empty. Only when that surname has enough strength to support it can it have its own real value.
Lu Fuqi couldn't do this, but Yang Chong could.
"Yes, this world is so wonderful, how can there not be a name that belongs to us." Yang Chongdao agreed with what Jiang Meng said. Although there was nothing false in his asking the Jiang couple to leave, it was also a test to see if the other party would be able to board his ship in the future.
At this time Jiang Yi also reacted and understood why his wife made the current move. However, this man was not as decisive as his wife after all. While he was still hesitating, Jiang Meng had already offered her loyalty.
Chapter 73 Ambitious? I just want to make progress
"How many people are left with us now?" Yang Chong asked. If he wanted to do something, he had to build up a force. And the broken ship of the Lu family was very worthwhile for him at the moment. Now that Yang Lin was dead, Jiang Yi and his wife, as Yang Lin's confidants, should know a lot. Moreover, if possible, Yang Chong did not want to mistreat his little maid.
"It's hard to say, maybe a lot, maybe a little." Jiang Meng said.
The Jiang family and the Lu family, as the former rulers of Qi State and the six tribes of Emperor Yan, had long been defeated, but even a broken boat still has three pounds of nails, let alone the former ruler of a country. It's just that over the years, under the constant hunting of the farmers, Yang Lin, who was not ambitious enough, could no longer gather the survivors.
But if there is someone who can make them see hope, perhaps it will be a different situation. In this era, there are too many people who are unwilling to be ordinary. Their downfall is only because of powerlessness. If there is an opportunity, they are willing to give it a try, and now Yang Chong can become this opportunity.
Now the opportunity lies in whether Yang Chong can make them see hope.
"No matter how many, let's give it a try. The situation won't be worse than it is now." Yang Chong said.
"Young Master, what do we want?" Jiang Meng asked.
It is already an extremely difficult task to fight against the Nong family. The only opponent of the current King of Qi is the King of Qi, who has a country as his backing. Although Jiang Mengshi recognizes Yang Chong's strength, she does not think that Yang Chong can have the power to shake the King of Qi. Her greatest expectation for Yang Chong is that he can confront the Nong family head-on.
"We need to take it step by step. The first thing we need to do is to form our own team, and then make other plans. Although the timing is not good now, it is still a chance. Moreover, the lack of opportunity now does not mean there will be no opportunity in the future. The world is going to change." Yang Chong said.
Although Qin is now the only superpower, countries like Zhao and Chu are not completely powerless to resist, and Qin's war to unify the world is not all smooth sailing. During this period, there is plenty of room for Yang Chong to operate. Moreover, even if Qin is really invincible, if you just wait patiently, that behemoth will still explode, and that will also be Yang Chong's opportunity.
"Young Master, do you want to take back Qi?" Jiang Yi was shocked. Although Yang Chong's words were vague, what was the message revealed in his words?
"First plan a piece of land, then slowly plan a country." Yang Chong pondered, his mind constantly replaying the memories of this world. Although this world is far from the world in history, the basic trend is still the same.
It is now the sixth year of King Zheng of Qin. Soon, a war that will affect the entire world will break out. It will also be the last war among the five countries to unite and attack Qin.
In this great battle in the seventh year of King Zheng of Qin, the coalition forces, led by Zhao's main general Pang Nuan, even invaded the heartland of Qin and marched to the foot of Zhicheng, not far from Xianyang, but were eventually pushed back by Qin.
What's even more interesting is that after withdrawing to Zhao State, the Zhao army did not stop fighting, but directly invaded Qi State and occupied many cities of Raoan in Qi State. During the alternation of the two countries' regimes, there would be a gap period, and Yang Chong had every opportunity to take what he wanted from it. Moreover, Raoan was a place bordering the Bohai Sea to the east, the river to the south, the Yan State to the north, and the Zhao State to the west. Its position was excellent. If Yang Chong could take control of it, he would be able to plan a lot of things.
Jiang Yi and his wife naturally could not tell that Yang Chong had already turned his attention to a place thousands of miles away in such a short period of time. They were waiting with bated breath for Yang Chong's next instructions.
"You two can go to Raoan in Qi State and try to gather your old subordinates there, as many as you can, and then lie in wait. I will go and meet you in three years." Yang Chong said.
"Rao An?" Jiang Meng's expression changed. Was Yang Chong really trying to shake the State of Qi?
"Don't worry, Qi's rule in Raoan will soon collapse. You are safe there. At least you are safe before I go there." Yang Chong stopped Jiang Meng who was about to say something.
……
In the backyard, Yan Lingji looked at the fire burning in the stove, and her gaze gradually turned to Jiang Nu. The less immature Jiang Nu was stir-frying mutton in the pot. She could already smell the aroma.
But now Miss Jiang looked absent-minded. Her two delicate eyebrows were wrinkled in the heat. She exhaled unconsciously, and it was the sound of a sigh.
"What are you worried about, little guy?" Yan Lingji leaned against the door frame behind her and had some guesses about Jiang Nu's thoughts.
"Will my sister become the young master's wife?" Jiang Nu looked at Yan Lingji. That pretty face, which seemed even more beautiful than Jingwei, was reflected in her eyes, making her more curious about the story between Yang Chong and Yan Lingji.
Jiang Nu had always thought that she knew Yang Chong very well. They were of similar age and had known each other since childhood. Since she was ten years old, she had been with Yang Chong and they were inseparable. However, many things that had happened recently were beyond her understanding. She did not blame Yang Ming for hiding so many secrets from her. She was just worried that she would not be able to understand Yang Chong's world in the future. For her, that would be the worst possible thing.
"Little guy, do you think everyone will fall in love with your young master?" Yan Lingji was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then she covered up her real reaction with a joke.
"I think so." Facing Yan Lingji's teasing, Jiang Nu nodded solemnly, and while speaking, she put the dishes in the pot into an empty plate beside her.
"You treat him as a treasure, but he is nothing to me." Yan Lingji said jokingly.
Of course, Yan Lingji would never admit anything in front of Jiang Nu. Otherwise, as Yang Chong's confidant, if Jiang Nu told Yang Chong what she said, Yang Chong would be very proud. She couldn't bear to see Yang Chong's smug look.
"I don't believe it." Jiang Nu looked at Yan Lingji. On that pretty face that even she was jealous of, she clearly saw a hint of barely perceptible panic.
"Even if his fiancée treats him as a treasure, I won't." Yan Lingji still said stubbornly.
"As long as I treat you as a great treasure." Yan Lingji suddenly felt that the hairs on the back of her neck were standing up. When she turned around, she saw Yang Chong had appeared behind her silently.
"Are you a ghost? You walk without making any sound." Yan Lingji flashed into the kitchen and said at a distance from Yang Chong.
