It must be said that Elder Tiann's bluffing skills are quite high. His act managed to fool the four strong warriors,
who stood there in a daze.
Of course, at this moment, Wang Xiaoqiang couldn't leave Elder Tiann embarrassed. He flicked his wrist, sending the Immortal Sword on Elder Tiann's neck flying away.
After flicking away Elder Tiann's sword, Wang Xiaoqiang turned around abruptly and shouted, "What are you doing?"
"Since they don't believe me, I might as well prove my innocence by death…" said Elder Tiann, with a righteous look on his face.
"If you die, how are we supposed to explain it to the Domain Lord?" Wang Xiaoqiang glared at him and said angrily, "If you want to clarify things, you have to stay alive. Wait until we meet the Domain Lord, and you can make your case to him directly."
As Wang Xiaoqiang said this, he turned his head and shot a glance at the four strong warriors, "Don't drag me into this mess with your unclear situation."
Seeing Elder Tiann like this, the four strong warriors were uncertain whether what happened before was a misunderstanding or a genuine attempt on their lives. With Wang Xiaoqiang's intervention, they felt awkward causing further trouble for Elder Tiann, so they suppressed their killing intent. The two-hundred-year-old elder sighed, "Alright, let's wait until we meet the Domain Lord to discuss this further…"
He then pointed at Elder Tiann and said, "But you'd better behave. If we catch you doing anything suspicious again, we won't spare you."
"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him." Wang Xiaoqiang then commanded Elder Tiann, "You go ahead to explore the way, and we'll follow…"
Hearing this, Elder Tiann obediently walked ahead, heading deeper into the mountains. The four strong warriors and Wang Xiaoqiang followed behind. As they walked, Wang Xiaoqiang asked, "Brothers, did you come to Kunshan for the contest as well?"
The four strong warriors seemed somewhat secretive, mumbling a bit, but eventually did not hide the truth. The two-hundred-year-old elder said, "Young Master Fang, we won't hide anything from you. The four of us entered Kunshan under the Domain Lord's orders, supposedly to compete, but actually to find and kill Wang Xiaoqiang…"
Wang Xiaoqiang naturally knew they came to kill him, but pretended to ask anyway. Hearing this, he said, "In that case, let's search for Wang Xiaoqiang together…"
"We've been afflicted with the Yin Fiend, limiting our strength significantly. Even if we find Wang Xiaoqiang, we might not be able to kill him," the two-hundred-year-old elder said gloomily.
"You overestimate Wang Xiaoqiang. With your combined cultivation base, plus Elder Tiann and me, killing Wang Xiaoqiang would be a piece of cake." Wang Xiaoqiang said confidently.
The four warriors looked at Wang Xiaoqiang with admiration, and the two-hundred-year-old elder said, "Young Master Fang is also willing to help us kill Wang Xiaoqiang?"
"Of course, I am an old friend of the Domain Lord. His matters are my matters too. Besides, you saved me once, which counts as a favor I wish to repay. Though my strength is limited, I will do my best to help…"
The two-hundred-year-old elder said, "To be honest, it was you who saved us. We should be the ones repaying you…"
Wang Xiaoqiang laughed casually and waved his hand, "Alright, let's not speak of repayment between us anymore. As long as we're united in killing Wang Xiaoqiang… However, I have a small request…"
The four warriors focused their attention on Wang Xiaoqiang, and the two-hundred-year-old elder said, "Young Master Fang, just speak your mind. Even if it means facing death, we will not refuse…"
Wang Xiaoqiang waved his hand, "You overstate it. I'm here in Kunshan to participate in the Realm Capital's elimination contest. For a good ranking, I need to kill criminals. If we encounter any criminals, I hope you can lend a hand, so my results look somewhat impressive…"
"That's easy,"
"Of course, no problem."
"Since Young Master Fang has requested it, we will all release our Divine Sense. While searching for Wang Xiaoqiang, we will also look for criminals to help you kill them."
The four promptly agreed, their tones relaxed yet firm.
Wang Xiaoqiang chuckled secretly, thinking how his enemies had turned into allies and were now willing to help him kill criminals, which was truly satisfying.
Elder Tiann, leading the way ahead, heard the conversation of the five behind him and murmured in his heart, "This Wang Xiaoqiang is just… just too cunning and treacherous… If those four find out later that he is Wang Xiaoqiang, I wonder if they'll be angry enough to bash their heads?"
...
Over the next four days, the six of them traversed Kunshan, searching for and killing criminals. With his Heavenly Eye, Wang Xiaoqiang could easily locate criminals, and with the help of the five warriors, he made significant gains over these four days, capturing twenty-five criminal heads, adding to the previous thirteen, totaling thirty-eight heads.
Thirty-eight criminal heads, a score that would overshadow any other contestant and could potentially break the current record for the highest score in the history of the Realm Capital's elimination contest.
Early one morning, the six set off together. Wang Xiaoqiang opened his Heavenly Eye and quickly found a criminal.
This criminal had a cultivation base at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Ninth Liquid Realm, incredibly powerful, strolling leisurely in the mountains like a king, seemingly at ease.
As a criminal, he made no attempt to hide or evade, leisurely wandering through Kunshan as if he had nothing to fear, not taking the contestants into account.
After discovering this criminal, Wang Xiaoqiang subtly guided the group toward the criminal. They soon found his location,
The criminal was taken aback to see the six strong warriors. Seeing six contestants gathered was unprecedented, and it surprised him that they found him, making him fear because the combined strength of these six contestants meant he had no chance of escape.
Wang Xiaoqiang and the others quickly surrounded the criminal. Realizing there was no escape, the criminal, in desperation, mustered the courage to say, "You cannot kill me. I have connections with the King of Kunshan. If you kill me, he will be aware, and he surely won't spare you…"
"You have connections with the King of Kunshan? Who are you to him?" Wang Xiaoqiang asked, a bit surprised.
"I was once a butler of the Royal Family of Kunshan…" the criminal replied.
"The butler of the Royal Family of Kunshan? How did you become a criminal?" Wang Xiaoqiang asked again. He wasn't in a rush to kill this criminal, as one more or less head wouldn't matter. But obtaining information about the King of Kunshan would be more valuable than a criminal head.
"Even the treasured son of the King of Kunshan became a criminal, why can't a butler become one?" the criminal retorted.
Wang Xiaoqiang thought for a moment and realized this was true. Anyone could commit a crime and be caught. So he said, "Alright, even if you are a butler of the Royal Family of Kunshan, an old acquaintance of his, we could kill you in these vast mountains, and how would the King of Kunshan know?"
The criminal hesitated and said, "If I tell you, will you spare my life?"
"Of course." Wang Xiaoqiang replied decisively, "Your life isn't worth much… Furthermore, I've already captured over three hundred criminal heads. Losing one doesn't matter. As long as you confess honestly, I will let you go…"
In a state of hopelessness, the criminal seeing a chance for survival in Wang Xiaoqiang's words, began to confess all the spies that the King of Kunshan had placed throughout Kunshan.
