Before Cheng Zhi Gao could speak, Xia Tian said again, "I think a fool like you should just kill yourself. I’ve realized that killing someone as foolish as you is meaningless. If you don’t want to kill yourself, then my servant girl will do it for me."
Turning to look at Gu Hanchuang, Xia Tian continued, "A servant girl can’t be wasted, Miss Chuang. Tonight I won’t make a move, but when the time comes and I tell you who to kill, just do as instructed, okay"
"Understood, Young Master," replied Gu Hanchuang.
“Xia Tian, I already told you that Jiutou’s matter has nothing to do with me. Someone is framing me!” Cheng Zhi Gao was very anxious in his heart but could only force himself to calm down. Rumors had started spreading two days ago that Xia Tian was faking an injury, and at the time he’d been worried that Xia Tian would come looking for trouble. But recently there hadn’t been any signs of it, so he thought Xia Tian must have stayed in the Dark Squad all along; thus, he had gradually relaxed his vigilance. However, he never expected that Xia Tian would suddenly show up today.
Thinking of Li and Sun’s fates, Cheng Zhi Gao felt a bit scared. Was their family really destined to meet an unfortunate end
"You’re truly stupid enough to believe me," said Xia Tian with a look of contempt at Cheng Zhi Gao. "Even if you’re not involved in Jiutou’s matter, I still have to kill you because your whole clan has been causing me trouble recently."
Cheng Zighao's cold sweat finally stopped. At this moment, he realized that his explanations were already unnecessary.
But just then, someone shouted: "Summer, do you think you're who Do you want to kill whoever you want Let me tell you, this is the capital city; now it’s a society governed by rule of law. You can’t get away with whatever you want to do! You’d better leave our Cheng family immediately or else we won't show any courtesy to you!"
Summer glanced at the guy who spoke. He was also a man, looking like an idiot around twenty years old. Clearly, he was another member of the Cheng family, but Summer didn’t recognize him. In fact, there were over a hundred people in the courtyard now, apart from Cheng Zighao. Summer's loud shout earlier had practically brought everyone out — some frightened by it and others curious to see what was happening; some even came purely for entertainment.
Indeed, as they say, when a forest is big enough, all kinds of birds can be found within; similarly, in a large family like the Chengs, you can find every type of person. Although the Cheng family wasn’t one of the largest, there were still quite a number of people living under its name, and there were even more fools than usual, not to mention that Cheng Zighao himself was no genius, so many in this crowd had yet to truly understand Summer’s terrifying reputation. Some hadn’t even heard of his name because they didn’t care about family matters.
The family member who first spoke did know about Summer and knew the rumors suggesting he was quite formidable but exactly how powerful Summer was, he wasn't aware of it. That's why he foolishly came out to curse at him.
"It’s really strange; there are still people who don’t believe I dare to kill," Summer muttered as he looked at this idiot and then casually said: "Little Frost, finish off the talking fool."
"Yes, young master." Gu Hanchuang's pleasant childlike voice sounded very comfortable. But with her sweet-sounding childish voice came an action that made everyone from the Cheng family quite uncomfortable.
A sword flash sliced through the night sky. No screams were heard; the person who had just spoken suddenly sprayed blood, splitting in half in an instant!
"Ugh..."
"Wah..."
This bloody scene stunned everyone from the Cheng family for a moment. A few seconds later, someone vomited uncontrollably while another was frightened to tears. The air was thick with the smell of blood.
Summer stared in shock before giving Gu Hanshuang an odd look and laughed: "Sis Frost, you did well. This will teach these idiots that if I want something done, it gets done, no matter who it is."
Gu Hanzhuang had a calm expression as though nothing had happened, but in reality, she hadn’t moved at all from the perspective of ordinary people—even Chu Yao couldn’t see her sword leave its scabbard. Only Summer could clearly discern her movements.
This vegetarian Taoist nun was not hesitant when it came to killing; perhaps in her eyes, human life meant nothing at all.
At this moment, Chu Yao finally understood that her husband's maid, this unusually dressed pretty Taoist nun, was no ordinary person. Even she, who often engaged in battles and fights, found the scene a bit gruesome. Killing someone was one thing, but cutting them into two halves with a single sword stroke was another matter entirely.
At this moment, the people from the Cheng family were truly terrified. Some of them had already been frightened to the point of collapsing on the ground. As for Cheng Zhi Gao, he was clearly also quite scared, though he managed to stand steady at present.
"Summer,冤有頭債有主 [there's a head and a leader for every wrong and debt], only I have been causing you trouble; if you want to kill someone, just kill me, it has nothing to do with the rest of our Cheng family!" Cheng Zhi gritted his teeth as he spoke. He tried to appear tough, but the uncontrollable tremor in his voice betrayed him.
"Hmm, those causing trouble for me are not only you, but your entire Cheng family. Therefore, I plan on eliminating all of you; otherwise, there will still be some idiots from your family looking for trouble in the future," Summer said lazily. "You know what A while ago, a foolish woman from the Li family kept causing trouble and almost blew up my wife. So I think it's true that if you don't uproot the grass thoroughly, it'll grow again come spring. Furthermore, idiots like you not only harm others but also waste food; so sometimes, I do some good deeds by sending you all to the fields as fertilizer. This is your final value."
"Summer, must you make things so extreme" Cheng Zhi Gao was very angry. "Even if our family has offended you, there hasn't been any loss on your part, while my brother nearly died at your hands and now another member of our family has lost their life; are you still using scare tactics or what Isn't this enough already"
"I never use scare tactics. I'll just kill the monkeys too," Summer said impatiently. "It seems you don’t want to hit your head against a wall yourself, so let me have Xue丫頭 [Little Frost] finish all of you off."
Summer turned and looked at Gu Hany霜 [Little Frost], preparing for her to act when suddenly he heard an urgent voice calling out: "Wait!"
With this sound, a Hummer sped in quickly and stopped soon after. A middle-aged man got out of the car first.
"Summer, please don't take action yet, I am Cheng Bobing." The middle-aged man ran towards Summer: "I'm Cheng Zhigao's father. We know that what we've done to our family is wrong, but please spare us a way out for the sake of Young Master Xiao Zhuo!"
Summer was taken aback: "Young Master Xiao Zhuo You mean Zhao Xiaozhuo"
"Of course it's me. Who else would dare to be called Young Master Xiao Zhuo" Another person jumped out of the Hummer, none other than Zhao Xiaozhuo.
"Why are you here" Summer looked at Zhao Xiaozhuo with a puzzled expression: "When did that bunch of idiots from the Cheng family start having anything to do with you"
"Well, Brother-in-law... they used to hang out with Ye Zifeng before. But Ye Zifeng is not dependable; when disaster strikes, he abandoned them. Now, they've come to me. I happen to need people to help me at the moment, so can you give me a favor and let it go this time I promise they won't bother you again in the future." Zhao Xiaozhuo walked up beside Summer, his tone pleading.
Zhao Xiaozhuo was now clear that if he wanted Summer to show him some face, he had to be nice about it. Naturally, he wouldn't lower himself like this in front of others. However, he felt that he and Summer were part of the same family, so lowering himself in front of her wasn't a big deal.
On the other hand, he did indeed need manpower now because his elder brother Zhao Gongzi was about to leave the capital city. In the future, matters in the capital would truly fall upon him. However, although he currently carried the banner of the Zhao family, there weren’t many people under him who could actually help with tasks. Now that Cheng Boping from the Cheng family had come forward to offer his allegiance, he naturally didn’t want to miss this opportunity.
“Doctor Xia, I can guarantee you that if anyone in the Cheng family shows disrespect towards you or your family members in the future, we will deal with them immediately without needing you to say a word!” At this moment, Cheng Boping also made his promise.
"Summer, whether you believe me or not, I still want to tell you once more: The matter of Ah Jiu getting shot really has nothing to do with me. It’s truly that someone wanted to use me as a pawn."
Seeing the situation taking a turn for the better, Cheng Zighao quickly came over to explain. Although Summer had previously said that explanations wouldn’t change anything, he still felt that if he could clarify this matter, it might make Summer reconsider.
"Brother-in-law, give me some face! If you don't even grant me a little bit of courtesy now, I won't be able to get by in the capital city anymore. If you really don’t want to show me any favor, I'll have to go and cry to my big sister!" Seeing that Summer hadn’t softened his stance yet, Zhao Xiaozhuo couldn’t help but feel somewhat dejected.
“Alright then, for the sake of my wife, the great demoness, I’ll give you a favor and let them off.” Summer suddenly recalled Yu Jia’s passionate behavior last night and finally decided to grant Zhao Xiaozhuo this favor.
However, immediately after that, he changed his tone and pointed at Cheng Zighao: “But then again, I still want to ask this guy a few things. If it turns out that he truly has anything to do with the matter of Ah Jiu getting shot, I’ll have no choice but to deal with him.”fell into an eerie unconsciousness. On the other side, Wang Xiufen had just raised her head when she also suddenly lost consciousness beside the hospital bed."Y-you..." Xiao Jian was very weak and str...
