Chapter Twenty-Nine: Killing Quan Guanqing



As soon as the longsword was drawn, Quan Guanqing sensed a gust of wind behind him.

The longsword, which was originally aimed at Bian Lang, suddenly turned and swiftly stabbed behind him.

Quan Guanqing felt the longsword pierce his flesh very clearly.

But when he turned around, he saw a Beggar Clan disciple hanging on his longsword.

“Master…” The Beggar Clan disciple laboriously extended his right hand toward Quan Guanqing.

Quan Guanqing raised his leg and kicked the Beggar Clan disciple away.

Looking at Shangguan Hongyu again, she was still trapped by many Beggar Clan disciples, her figure flickering, yet unable to break free.

But Quan Guanqing knew in his heart that once he went to kill Bian Lang, Shangguan Hongyu would definitely send another Beggar Clan disciple over.

Bian Lang sighed with a playful expression, "Master Quan, you're so ruthless to your own people. If you were to truly dominate the martial world, I'm afraid it would be awash in blood."

"A rushing river of blood is most delightful, and Master Bian can also contribute to this magnificent river of blood." Quan Guanqing had already revealed his true purpose: he had to get rid of Bian Lang no matter what.

Just as Quan Guanqing was about to draw his sword, he saw Qiao Feng's corpse suddenly move forward and block the way between him and Bian Lang.

Quan Guanqing was startled, but quickly recovered and said coldly, "Master Bian, do you think you can scare me like this?"

Bian Lang sighed, "Quan Guanqing, I did this just to give you a chance."

Even when faced with Qiao Feng's remains, Quan Guanqing showed no remorse, indicating that he was truly beyond redemption.

"Prepare to die!" Quan Guanqing drew his sword again.

Shangguan Hongyu, who was engaged in a fierce battle with the Beggars' Sect disciples not far away, suddenly saw this and became extremely anxious.

This time, the Beggars' Sect disciples were smarter. When they noticed Shangguan Hongyu's gaze shifting towards Bian Lang, they all retreated to avoid being thrown towards Quan Guanqing by Shangguan Hongyu again.

Quan Guanqing had investigated Bian Lang and knew that Bian Lang was skilled at corpse-driving, but his martial arts skills were mediocre.

The longsword in his hand was enough to kill ten Bian Lang.

But the moment he drew his sword, Bian Lang suddenly vanished.

"Quan Guanqing, the pushover you think you are might actually be a diamond." Bian Lang appeared beside Quan Guanqing and said, almost touching Quan Guanqing's ear.

Quan Guanqing's expression changed drastically. Before he could react, he was punched in the head.

The punch didn't actually hit Quan Guanqing, but the powerful hidden force destroyed the inside of Quan Guanqing's head.

Quan Guanqing stood still, and soon blood began to seep from his seven orifices.

"You, as disciples of the Beggars' Sect, have actually committed such a despicable act..." Bian Lang manipulated Qiao Feng's body towards the Beggars' Sect disciples, while simultaneously shouting in a muffled voice, as if he were squeezing his throat.

When the Beggars' Sect disciples saw Qiao Feng approaching, they were terrified. Upon seeing that Quan Guanqing had already died tragically, they all scattered.

“Brother Bian, you…” Shangguan Hongyu felt that something was off.

Qiao Feng's body has already been used once, so it definitely cannot be used again.

How did Lang defeat Quan Guanqing?

Bian Lang said, "Quan Guanqing is dead, and we've wasted a lot of time. Let's hurry on our way."

When he left, Bian Lang took Quan Guanqing with him.

At least with Quan Guanqing's body there, if there are any more people trying to steal the body, Quan Guanqing can go up and take the fall.

By the time they arrived at the next inn for transporting corpses, it was almost dawn.

If Bian Lang hadn't traveled so fast, he probably wouldn't have been able to reach this corpse-transporting inn.

But to their surprise, there was a stunningly beautiful woman in the inn.

The woman stood at the entrance of the inn, her expression melancholy, like a beautiful ice sculpture.

“It’s Lianxing,” Bian Lang said in a low voice.

Shangguan Hongyu was secretly alarmed and said, "Although Lianxing's martial arts are not as good as Yaoyue's, they are still better than ours."

The reason they were able to drive away Yaoyue was because of Qiao Feng's remains.

Now all we can rely on is Quan Guanqing's corpse, but Quan Guanqing is definitely no match for Lianxing.

Bian Lang laughed and said, "Relax, maybe she's not here to fight."

He stepped forward and clasped his hands in a salute.

"I didn't mean to disturb you. I just came to say goodbye to an old friend. I was unaware of what my sister did before, and I apologize to you for that." Lianxing said, bowing slightly.

Even though Lianxing was polite, Shangguan Hongyu didn't trust her at all.

Upon entering the inn, Bian Lang pulled Shangguan Hongyu to cook, so that Lianxing could have a chance to be alone with Qiao Feng's body.

"Thank you," Lianxing said again.

Upon arriving in the kitchen, Shangguan Hongyu felt uneasy, constantly sensing that Lianxing would take Qiao Feng's body away.

Bian Lang laughed and said, "Don't worry, even if Lianxing takes away Master Qiao's body, Master Qiao was a corpse that I transported, so I have a way to track him down."

If Lianxing really brought Qiao Feng's body to Yihua Palace, even if they knew, they wouldn't have the power to take the body back.

Seeing Bian Lang's confident demeanor, Shangguan Hongyu stopped talking and focused on finishing the meal so she could rest sooner.

With Lianxing around, I doubt she'll get any rest.

After the meal was cooked, Bian Lang asked Shangguan Hongyu to ask Lianxing if she wanted to eat.

Shangguan Hongyu reluctantly went to ask, only to see Lianxing resting her head on Qiao Feng's chest, motionless.

Even Shangguan Hongyu was at a loss in the face of this situation and had no choice but to secretly withdraw.

Unexpectedly, Lianxing is quite the romantic.

There were many beautiful women in the martial arts world who admired Qiao Feng, but after his death, most of them would only grieve in secret and wipe away their tears. Only Lianxing came to hug his body and weep bitterly.

"Lianxing seems to really like Master Qiao." Shangguan Hongyu returned to the kitchen and began washing the dishes.

Bian Lang said, "Yaoyue did not lie about this matter."

Since both Yaoyue and Lianxing have come, there must be someone else who made a deal with Quan Guanqing.

Bian Lang was only slightly curious about the man's identity, since Qiao Feng's body could be sent to the Beggars' Sect headquarters after tomorrow night.

Once the task is completed and the reward is received, everything will be fine.

When the two returned, Lianxing had already left.

Beside Qiao Feng's body was a gold ingot.

Bian Lang picked up the gold, stuffed it into his pocket, and laughed, "I can have another good meal."

The Beggars' Sect's headquarters were located in Luoyang.

Luoyang is also world-famous for its brothels.

If he weren't still in a period of abstinence, Bian Lang would definitely go out and have fun for several days and nights until he had spent all his money.

"I bet you're thinking of going to that kind of place." Shangguan Hongyu could guess what Bian Lang was thinking just by looking at the smile on his lips.

Bian Lang asked with a smile, "What kind of place is that?"

"I'm going to sleep now." Shangguan Hongyu buried herself in the straw pile.

Bian Lang lay down on the other side and quickly fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was already dark.

There was no time to cook, so the two of them ate some dry food to tide them over.

Once we deliver Qiao Feng's body to the Beggars' Sect headquarters tonight, we can enjoy a delicious meal in Luoyang tomorrow.

"I hope nothing will happen tonight." Shangguan Hongyu didn't like anyone trying to take the body.

When they arrived in Luoyang, it was just past 9 PM.

If a corpse-driver wants to bring a corpse into the city, they need to wait until after midnight.

Just then, a large group of Beggars' Sect disciples walked out of the city.
