Chapter 185 The Last Look
There was silence in a side room. Drops of blood that had not been cleaned up were scattered on the floor tiles, as if it was a crime scene.
Looking at the wrinkled man opposite him, who looked like a rotten apple in late autumn, Wei Changtian was surprised and speechless.
He never imagined that Li Suyue's husband who had been missing for three years was not actually "dead", and he never imagined that he would be rescued by the Freemasons in this way.
"Your name is Wang Qian? You used to be the head of the Humen Escort Agency?"
Douxiu found a chair and sat down, Wei Changtian's tone was calm.
Wang Qian could tell that the young man in front of him was not ordinary, so he immediately lowered his head and replied, "Yes, it is me."
"I just heard you say you have a wife and a son. What are their names?"
"My dear, my wife's name is Su Yue and my son's name is Wang Ran."
"Um"
After confirming again, Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping looked at each other and continued to ask calmly: "How did you come to the Pili Sect, and what have you done in the past three years?"
“.”
Wang Qian felt that Wei Changtian might know the situation of his wife and children, but he did not dare to say more at the moment, so he could only answer bitterly:
"My two lords, I was kidnapped by the Thunderbolt Sect three years ago while on escort duty and was brought to this Jiguan Mountain."
"All the escorts who were traveling with me were killed by the Pili Clan, but they seemed to know my name, so they didn't kill me. Instead, they imprisoned me on the top of the mountain and forced me to teach the Pili Clan's martial arts."
"so."
Wei Changtian narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "You have been the instructor of the Pili Sect for three years?"
"Sir, I don't want to do this either!"
Wang Qian fell to his knees, kowtowed and explained in a trembling voice: "But if I don't obey, they will torture me with all kinds of torture."
"They also promised to let me go after five years. I was worried about my wife and children at home, so I agreed to it."
"My lords, I know I was wrong. I am willing to go through fire and water for you, even if I die."
"I only ask for mercy from the two gentlemen, please have mercy from the two gentlemen."
"Boom, boom, boom"
There was a dull thud as his forehead hit the ground, and soon Wang Qian's forehead was covered in blood. This was enough to show that he was not just doing it for show every time he kowtowed, but was really afraid that Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping would kill him if they were unhappy with him.
After all, no matter what, he did teach the members of the Pili Sect martial arts.
And Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping destroyed the Thunderbolt Sect today. It was obvious that there was a grudge between the two sides, so it was normal to kill him.
Wang Qian’s worries were not without reason, but he guessed in the wrong direction.
Wei Changtian did have the intention to kill him at this time, but it was not because he was "aiding the enemy" to the Thunderbolt Sect . Instead, he simply did not want him to have the chance to appear in front of Li Suyue again.
If Wei Changtian had known that Wang Qian was still alive, he would definitely not have tried to match Li Suyue and Zhang San.
But now that this has happened, a decision must be made.
To be fair, this choice should be made by Li Suyue.
However On one side is her ex-husband who reappeared after being "dead" for three years, and on the other side is her current boyfriend who she just got married to not long ago.
Li Suyue had no idea how she would choose Wei Changtian, but she knew very well that this would definitely be an extremely bloody drama, and that the ending would be that all three people would suffer varying degrees of harm.
The way to minimize the "harm" is to kill Wang Qian directly.
In this way, the only one who is "injured" is Wang Qian, while Li Suyue and Zhang San can continue to live happily without knowing anything.
Of course, this is undoubtedly unfair to Wang Qian.
He did nothing wrong, and judging from his various behaviors, he must have deep feelings for Li Suyue.
In the end, not only did his virtuous wife end up marrying someone else, but he also lost his life because of it. But does this have nothing to do with Wei Changtian? No.
But I couldn't help feeling a little awkward.
Chu Xianping, who was sitting next to him, said nothing, obviously not wanting to interfere with Wei Changtian's decision.
Wang Qian, who was kneeling at the feet, was still kowtow ing again and again, his shriveled cheeks covered with a mixture of blood and tears.
Alas. Yu sighed softly in his heart and lightly held the hilt of the knife at his waist.
"Captain Wang, I'm sorry."
“.”
The man crawling on the ground gradually stiffened and his lips trembled.
Although he was a sixth-rank warrior, seeing Wei Changtian's calmness, he knew that there was no possibility of him escaping by relying on force.
"Sir, wait a moment."
At this time, Chu Xianping suddenly spoke.
A glimmer of hope instantly ignited in Wang Qian's eyes, but the next moment it turned into deeper despair.
"I'll take care of this."
“.”
Chu Xianping wanted to take action for himself, and Wei Changtian certainly knew why he did that.
However, this move is actually just a cover-up. After all, no matter who ultimately kills Wang Qian, the decision was made by himself.
"No."
He shook his head to reject Chu Xianping's kindness, and with a "clang" sound, the long sword was unsheathed.
"Captain Wang, we have no grudge against each other. I have no choice but to kill you."
"Your wife and children are living well now, but they all thought you were dead."
"So. That's it."
“.”
Wang Qian seemed to understand something in an instant.
His eyes suddenly widened, and his body trembled violently as if it had been hit by a bullet, and then all his strength was lost.
However, at the last moment of his life, he managed to raise his head, and then slammed it heavily to the ground.
“Boom!”
This knock was heavier than any previous one.
This knock seemed to have consumed all of a man's dignity.
"Sir, I don't ask to live, I just want to see my wife and children for the last time."
“.”
The sunlight came in through the window and reflected on the mirror-smooth blade, shining brightly.
“Swish!”
Gui Chen's sword fell down at a rapid speed, tearing through the air with a rustling sound.
Liang Qin put away his knife with a serious expression and stood still. He exhaled and then wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead with his sleeve.
"Miss Liang, have you finished your sword practice today?"
Yuan'er, who was holding a wooden basin, happened to pass by. She stopped and asked with a smile, "It seems to be a little later than usual today."
Liang Qin rubbed her sore shoulders and said, "Well, from today on, I will swing an extra 3,000 knives every day."
“I’m so tired.”
Yuan'er stuck out her tongue, making it seem as if she was the one practicing with the sword.
At this moment, Li Suyue's voice suddenly came from the front yard.
"Yuan'er, did the master say when he would be back today?"
"No!"
Yuan'er responded loudly, bowed to Liang Qin, and walked towards the front yard with the wooden basin in her arms. However, when she turned the corner, she almost bumped into a little boy who was secretly "practicing" in the corner.
"Hey, Ran'er, why are you sitting here?"
“.”
The little boy was also startled. He grabbed Yuan'er's clothes with a guilty conscience, pointed his chubby little finger at the front yard, and shook his head like a rattle.
"Hahaha, I know, I know. I won't tell your mother."
Yuan'er immediately understood the meaning of the sign language and couldn't help laughing softly, "But your father will be back soon, can't you wait for him at the door?"
Daddy.
This word was once quite unfamiliar to the little boy, but now it has a very clear referent.
“.”
His eyes lit up and he nodded heavily.
