Chapter 234: Zhu Zhuqing's Decisiveness in Killing
"Attack! Get them! Kill these ignorant fools! Kill them all!!!" Young Master Huang screamed.
"Wuhun Possession!"
"Go!"
The five men, led by Young Master Huang, all activated their martial souls. They were all soul masters, but they were a group of spoiled, lazy nobles who had some talent in martial arts but lacked effort. They were all in their twenties, with soul power only around level 27 to 29, with Young Master Huang being the only one at Soul Ancestor level, 31.
"Ye Wen, you don't need to bother with these small fries. I'll handle this myself." Zhu Zhuqing's face was cold, her eyes glinting with a sharp light. Before the five could even charge, her figure had already moved.
Her speed was incredibly fast, agile, quick, accurate, and ruthless.
Before the four men could react,
Swish~ Swish, swish~
"Ahhhhh~!"
In an instant, Zhu Zhuqing's claws sliced through the four men's throats, instantly killing them!
The four men's eyes widened in shock, blood spraying from their necks as they fell to the ground, dead.
"They killed someone! They killed someone!!!"
"Ahhhhh!"
Those in the bathhouse witnessed the scene, and panic spread throughout the open-air hot spring. Chaos erupted with screams everywhere.
Zhu Zhuqing, with a cold expression, walked towards Young Master Huang.
"Don't come near! Don't come near!"
Young Master Huang was terrified now. He realized that he had provoked a group of people who were both powerful and decisive in their actions.
As he saw Zhu Zhuqing walking toward him, Young Master Huang's legs gave way, and he collapsed in fear.
"People like you have probably harmed many innocent girls, haven't you?" Zhu Zhuqing swayed her hips as she stood coldly in front of Young Master Huang.
"W-what do you want to do!" Young Master Huang stuttered in fear.
"Of course, I'm going to eliminate pests like you." Zhu Zhuqing's killing intent flared up.
"You! Do you know who I am?! I'm the heir of the Huang family, one of the top noble families of Star Night City! If you lay a hand on me, my family will take revenge on you! You'll all pay for this!"
"The Huang family? I don't even fear the Dai family's royal bloodline. What are you, the Huang family?" Zhu Zhuqing said coldly.
"No! No! Heroine, please spare my life! I was wrong! I was wrong, I'll never do it again! Please, I beg you, let me go!" Young Master Huang was scared out of his mind, and he believed Zhu Zhuqing would really kill him.
He immediately fell to his knees, begging for mercy.
A foul-smelling liquid began to drip from his pants, soaking the ground.
"Roses are tempting, but they can prick you at any moment."
"Go to hell."
"No! Noooo!!!"
Swish~!
"Ugh!"
Zhu Zhuqing's claw instantly slashed through Young Master Huang's throat. Blood poured out, and he shook in fear, regret, and despair as he died.
These people had only been harassing or attempting to force themselves on women, and under the empire's law, their crimes weren't punishable by death.
But Zhu Zhuqing showed no mercy, because she could tell these people had likely done this many times before—harming and coercing women. She wouldn't show kindness to such people.
Watching this unfold, Ye Wen nodded silently. Over the years, Zhu Zhuqing had grown more and more decisive in her actions.
"Three of you! Hurry and leave! The people you killed are the heirs of one of the top noble families of Star Night City! They are powerful and ruthless, with a hand over everything in Star Night City."
"This hot spring hotel has connections to them. Now that Young Master Huang is dead, they've probably already informed the Huang family!"
"They'll come to retaliate! If you wait too long, it'll be too late to leave." Some well-meaning people nearby advised Ye Wen and his group to leave.
Ye Wen, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bing'er exchanged glances, as if the previous events had never happened. They simply found another hot spring and continued to soak.
The people around them were left dumbfounded.
They were thinking: "?????"
Hey, hey, hey, at a time like this, they still have the mood to relax in the hot springs?
I can't believe it!
Do they even know what kind of people they've provoked?
The Huang family! The top noble family of Star Night City, the local rulers! They control a private army of a thousand men and have nearly a hundred soul masters, with the family head being a Soul Saint!
A Soul Saint may not seem impressive at first, but in a world as vast as Douluo, such a powerful person is already a top-tier figure in a city, if not a province!
The Huang family is indeed an extremely powerful force in this small city of Star Night.
They can tell Ye Wen and his companions aren't simple, but there's a saying—"even a strong dragon can't control a local snake." After all, this is their territory!
"Forget it, if they aren't afraid of death, we still want to live! Let's go, if the Huang family gets mad and kills us too, we're done for!"
"Yes, yes! Hurry and leave!"
At that moment, many people started to flee, and before long, the area was cleared. The large open-air hot spring area was left with only Ye Wen, Zhu Zhuqing, and Bing'er, leisurely lying in the hot spring.
Some of the tourists who had escaped didn't leave immediately. Instead, they stayed nearby, waiting to watch the drama unfold.
News of Young Master Huang's death spread quickly, and more and more people gathered, waiting to see the Huang family's reaction. But most of them hoped to see Ye Wen and his group take down the Huang family, though they knew it was impossible. The Huang family's power was too vast.
Nearly an hour later, the head of the Huang family arrived, leading dozens of soul masters and his private army of a thousand men, rushing toward the hot spring area with an imposing force.
At that moment, Young Master Huang's body had already been carried out by the hotel staff.
Upon seeing his deceased son, the head of the Huang family immediately collapsed in grief, throwing himself in front of Young Master Huang's body and crying out: "My son! My son! Ahhhh!!!"
"How dare you kill my son!!! No matter who you are, I will make you pay the price for this!!"
"Vengeance for my son! Ahhhh!!!"
The Huang family head's eyes were bloodshot, filled with murderous intent. He was enraged. This was his only son, and he valued him dearly.
"Where are they! The ones who killed my son! Where are they?!"
The Huang family head roared at the hotel management staff.
"They're still inside the hot spring." The hotel staff answered nervously.
"How dare they kill my son and still enjoy the hot spring! How audacious! Get in there and drag them out!"
"Yes, sir!"
The noble army of a thousand men began charging into the hot spring area.
