"Master Zhou..."

"Captain Wang, you should know the truth of the matter."

Zhou Qing interrupted him, "Let's do everything according to the rules. What do you think, Captain Wang?"

According to the rules, what would be Wang Dingman's fate? Death for sure.

Zhou Qing looked at the other young men and said, "You also have to follow me back to the Ghost and God Department to be investigated."

After these words were spoken, those people were not very happy.

"We don't know what happened. Everything has nothing to do with us. It's none of our business!"

"Yes, we don't know what Wang Dingman did."

"Sir, I am from the Gong family. My father is a warrior at the Marrow Cleansing Realm."

"I don't care who your father, mother or master are, or which family you come from." Zhou Qing said coldly:

"Come back to the Ghost Department with me for investigation. I won't repeat myself a second time."

"If it has nothing to do with you, then you don't have to be afraid of interrogation and scrutiny."

"call out!"

Several streams of true energy flowed out of his body and directly sealed some acupuncture points on those people to prevent them from escaping.

Even if he ran away, Zhou Qing could chase him, but he didn't want to cause trouble.

Zhou Qing walked towards Wang Dingman again, ready to cripple him and take him away, but at this time, Wang Genzheng spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Master Zhou, can you please let this rebellious son live?"

Zhou Qing frowned, and then listened to Wang Genzheng continue:

"I did it. Take me back. I plead guilty."

"You can destroy this rebellious son's cultivation, as long as he is spared from death. I have some connections in the border army. I have saved the life of the current border army general. I can recommend..."

“That’s enough!”

Zhou Qing interrupted Wang Genzheng and said, "He has done something like this, there is no way out, no room for negotiation."

"You can use your connections to see if you can save him. Even if Da Qi doesn't kill him, I will kill him."

"I know he deserves to die. He deserves to be cut into pieces. It's not a pity for him to die."

Wang Genzheng's dead face and empty eyes showed a strong sense of sadness.

"But he is my son."

"Bang!"

Wang Genzheng knelt on the ground and said, "I didn't teach him well. It's my fault. Lord Zhou, please take me away."

"I just ask you to spare his life."

Zhou Qing subconsciously clenched his fists, grabbed Wang Genzheng, and said sternly: "Where is the Wang Genzheng who fought the barbarians on the battlefield? Where is the Wang Genzheng who defended the country and the people?!"

Then Zhou Qing pushed Wang Genzheng away and dispersed the power of the earth that was blocking Wang Dingman's mouth.

"Come and tell your father how you killed those sisters!"

"Crazy, you lunatic, I didn't kill them at all!" Wang Dingman shouted.

"Are you still being stubborn?!" Zhou Qing's eyes became increasingly cold.

"I didn't kill them, I just took their bodies and then left!"

"How can there be such a thing as you in the world?"

There is no doubt that the torn object was the work of Wang Dingman when he raped the Xiaocao sisters.

"I really didn't do it!" Wang Dingman was also panicked and extremely terrified.

"You don't remember, right? Then let me help you remember!"

Zhou Qing's mental power rushed into Wang Dingman's mind with great violence, and without holding back at all, he forcibly searched his soul.

"ah!"

Wang Dingman screamed in agony and twisted his body in pain.

Wang Genzheng knelt down again, with his head buried deeply, with no intention of stopping.

Zhou Qing "pulled" out memory scenes from Wang Dingman's mind and manifested them in the air.

He separated from those cronies, then found a place by himself and took out the body of the brown bear beast. One could see that there was a magic talisman on the corpse that looked like a ghost painting, which was completely different from the talisman technique Zhou Qing had learned.

Then Wang Dingman used a special method to extract the beast soul from the corpse and refined it into his own body, in order to practice a very special martial art.

During this process, Wang Dingman's body expanded several times. When he opened his eyes after the refining was completed, his eyes were red and confused, with madness and bloodthirstiness, but he slowly suppressed it.

He rode his horse again and slowly came to the flower field, where he happened to meet Sister Grass who also came there and wanted to pick flowers.

When Banman, whose animal nature was rising in his heart, saw them, he could not help himself and rode over on his horse, trampling part of the flower field.

Then he rode his horse slowly, driving away the Xiaocao sisters. The two sisters fell to the ground in panic, which made him laugh wildly.

Eventually, the Xiaocao sisters came to the crime scene that Zhou Qing had visited before, where Wang Dingman attacked them.

How could two ordinary people resist a warrior at the tendon and vein realm? All their struggles were futile.

And this time, he was awake.

But Wang Dingman, who was originally sober, did not disappear after doing this evil thing and completely indulged himself. The desire and madness that had been suppressed in his heart did not disappear. Instead, they became difficult to control and expanded infinitely as he indulged in the desires in his heart.

The beast soul he had just refined went out of control, so he also transformed into the appearance of a brown bear.

There was no longer any trace of human clarity in those eyes.

The sober Wang Dingman, because of his bad nature, had long coveted Xiaocao and had desires in his heart, so he committed rape.

When faced with two mortal girls who had been badly beaten and had no power to resist, Wang Dingman, who had transformed into a brown bear, chose the most primitive way of venting his anger like a beast.

That is...

The cruel and bloody scene was about to begin, so Zhou Qing simply skipped this memory, but the murderous intent on his face became more and more obvious.

Wang Genzheng, who was lying on the ground, felt his body becoming weaker and weaker, as if his spine had been pulled out.

When Wang Dingman's friends looked at those memory scenes, their faces turned pale with fear, and they trembled and even vomited.

When the memory scene appeared again, Wang Dingman, who had a bear body, had returned to human form. Then his eyes were confused, and he seemed not to have regained consciousness yet. He led his horse away.

Later, he reunited with his friends and finally returned to Xiaowangzhuang.

"My Lord, you've seen it too. We really, really had no involvement in this matter!"

There was a person whose trembling was evident even as he spoke, as if he was about to cry. The others nodded frantically, not daring to say anything that should not be said at this time.

Zhou Qing ignored them. Wang Dingman was still rubbing himself on the ground in pain, but he was still tightly bound by the chains formed by the power of the earth.

After a long time, the pain in his body gradually disappeared, and his struggle gradually subsided.

"Bah, beast!"

A young man suddenly spat at Wang Dingman, as if to distance himself from him. Others reacted and did the same.

"I'm not wrong! I'm not wrong at all!"

"Everyone owes my family something. Now I just want them to pay back the lives my family gave away!"

“Swish!”

The vitality of heaven and earth was as sharp as a knife, slashing Wang Dingman fiercely and taking away his last chance of survival.

As soon as his soul floated out, Zhou Qing took it away. At the same time, Wang Dingman's body was also collected by him.

A vicious bear kept screaming and he couldn't stand it.

His sudden killing scared the young men. When they looked at Zhou Qing, they were even more frightened, fearing that he would kill them in the next second.

I made up my mind that I would never go out and fool around again.

Zhou Qing glanced at Wang Genzheng who was still lying on the ground.

"If you want revenge, you can do it now, or you can come to me anytime in the future."

"If you want to use your connections against me, I'm also waiting. High-ranking officials in Zhongtian City, generals in the border army, whatever you want."

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

After saying that, Zhou Qing prepared to leave.

"He deserved to die. Lord Zhou got rid of this evil for the people. How can I have the nerve to talk about revenge?"

Zhou Qing paused and turned to look over.

Wang Genzheng had already raised his head, there seemed to be traces of tears on his face, his eyes were red, but there was a look of relief on his face.

"Thank you, Lord Zhou, for getting rid of a great evil for Xiaowangzhuang."

"I am also at fault in this matter. I will do my best to compensate Xiaocao and her family, and then... turn myself in to the Ghost and God Department."

Zhou Qing's expression relaxed a little and he sighed, but he had nothing to say.

Wang Genzheng was not involved in this matter, and it indeed had nothing to do with him. It was purely because Wang Dingman was stubborn by nature and refused to listen to advice and forcibly refined the beast soul. He then committed violence, which completely ignited the beast nature in his heart.

But if you think about it carefully, it has something to do with him.

Who was responsible for Wang Dingman's current temper? It couldn't be the master of Xuandu Temple, or the Four Seas Dragon Emperor, right?

Wang Genzheng is a qualified officer and a qualified captain, but whether he is a qualified father is debatable.

Zhou Qing asked, "Does he have barbarian blood?"

When he was observing the aura just now, he could tell that this person had an aura that was not that of a human.

"Well, half human, half barbarian."

Wang Genzheng stood up, but his spirit was completely broken. He was no longer as sharp as when Zhou Qingchu saw him.

"Master Zhou, I'm sorry to bother you for a moment. Please follow me."

He looked very calm, without sadness or anger, completely empty.

"I left a mark on you. As long as I notice you moving, I will chase you back immediately."

Zhou Qing glanced at the other people and said, "When the time comes, they will be directly treated as accomplices."

Several people nodded repeatedly, indicating that they would obey.

The dissolute disciple who usually does no good in Zhongtian City and is hated by everyone is now very well behaved.

Zhou Qing followed Wang Genzheng and left, but before they had gone far, Wang Genzheng started talking.

"The injury I received in that brutal battle was indeed the reason for my discharge from the army, but it was only one of the reasons."

"Before that time, I met a barbarian girl. Due to some accidents, many things happened. I fell in love with her, and so did she."

"At that time, the girl was just an ordinary practitioner in a small tribe and did not join the barbarian army."

As Wang Gen was speaking, his expression remained dead calm, without any fluctuation.

"I was very conflicted and tormented. I fell in love with someone from the enemy tribe."

"But I didn't hold back on the battlefield just because I fell in love with a barbarian girl. Every time the barbarians attacked, I was merciless within my ability."

“I know. This is war.”

"But we even had a child. I was at a loss and didn't know what to do. From that time on, I considered retiring from the army, taking her away, and returning to my hometown to live a quiet life. Here, no one would know that she was a barbarian."

"But before I could take action, an accident happened. I saw her on the battlefield. The big barbarian tribe recruited people from various small tribes and launched a fierce attack. Her tribe was among them, which disrupted my plan."

"On the battlefield, I still showed no mercy when I killed the barbarians. I know my identity and I cannot implicate my comrades."

"In that battle, both the human and barbarian tribes suffered heavy losses, and her relationship with me had already been known by her tribe. She was forced to fight with me."

"I killed her."

At this point, Wang Genzheng's dead voice suddenly trembled, and Zhou Qing couldn't help but look at him.

"That was a battlefield, a racial battlefield. If I took a step back, hundreds of people in Da Qi might die, so I don't regret it. But after that time, I could no longer stay on the battlefield. Just thinking about fighting on the battlefield would make my hands tremble and I would even have hallucinations."

"I applied for discharge from the army, brought our child back here, and named him Dingman, which means pacifying the barbarians."

"No one discovered his identity. Being half human and half barbarian is inherently very concealed. Unlike being half demon, his features are obvious. I raised him successfully."

"Dingman's mother left him some things. Plus, he has barbarian blood in him, so he can indeed practice those things."

Zhou Qing had been listening quietly to Wang Genzheng's story without interrupting him.

"But this is not the grassland after all, and I have no experience in barbarian cultivation, so I will encounter some bumps in the road when practicing, and I can't give him much guidance."

"I am not a qualified father either. Perhaps I am not even worthy of being a father. I have made a mess of my and her children."

"Before, Dingman sometimes did evil things. I even thought about sending him to jail myself, ignoring him, and severing all ties with him. But Dingman was the only continuation of her life, and I could never bear to do it."

"I am not a good father and I have failed her. I am in agony. Every wrong thing Dingman has done makes me suffer."

"Mr. Zhou, thank you so much. I am... relieved. When I see her again, I will make amends to her."

"It's my inability to make our child a useful person."

Wang Genzheng stopped, turned to look at Zhou Qing, and forced a very ugly smile on his face.

"Sorry for making you listen to so much of my nagging, Mr. Zhou."

He took out a book and three stones from his space bag and handed them to Zhou Qing.

"This is what she left behind. It is related to the barbarian tribe's cultivation and is... evidence of a crime."

"Master Zhou, thank you so much. You are very capable and good. You know, when I asked you for mercy just now, I hoped you would agree, but I also hoped you wouldn't agree."

"You kept what I lost and upheld the rules that I failed to uphold. The Ghost and God Department is lucky to have you among the people of Da Qi."

"I have to go deal with Ding Man's matter. Lord Zhou, you should go back to the Ghost and God Department to report first. I will go there later."

Wang Genzheng strode away, heading towards Sister Xiaocao.

Zhou Qing watched him leave. His back straightened up again, as if his former fighting spirit had returned.

Zhou Qing turned around and the two went in opposite directions.

He said nothing from beginning to end.

No need to say more, just move forward.
