“Mr. Fang, from now on, the entire Shi family will abandon evil and do good. If we do evil again, it will not be too late for you, the Prefect, and the Commandant to punish us.”
Shi Tianyong wept bitterly.
"Abandon evil and embrace good? Can the Shi family be trusted?"
Fang Han said calmly, "I had Lin Yao, the sect leader of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, tell you that your Shi family patriarch, Shi Tianyong, should personally apologize to me, my sister Fang Yingxue, and my disciple Gongsun Yaoqin. But not only did you not apologize, you also gathered all the experts in the Shi family to take revenge on me. You even sent a letter to Shi Tianming, asking him to mobilize the county troops to kill me. I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it."
After he finished speaking, the Shi family members were already trembling with fear.
They all knew that whether Prefect Han Wentian and Commandant Guo Tianyi would destroy the Shi family today depended on Fang Han's attitude.
They didn't know who Fang Han was, but he was definitely someone the Shi family couldn't afford to offend.
Now they completely believe what Lin Yao, the sect leader of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, said: that the Shi family and Fang Han are enemies, and that is courting death.
Shi Tianyong scrambled and stumbled his way to Fang Han's feet.
"Mr. Fang, if you can spare the lives of the Shi family, we are willing to donate half of our property. All the treasures of the Shi family, as long as you take a liking to them, we will offer them to you with both hands!"
The guy grabbed Fang Han's leg and started pleading.
He didn't want to give up his last chance. He knew that if Fang Han didn't let go, the Shi family would be completely wiped out today. Even if they weren't exterminated, all the adult experts in the Shi family would definitely be killed.
"roll!"
A hint of undisguised disgust flashed in Fang Han's eyes, and he casually flicked his toe.
Shi Tianyong's seemingly robust body was instantly sent flying backward uncontrollably, like a tattered sack being swept up by a gale.
He drew a messy arc in the air, crashing heavily onto a pillar several meters away. Like a kicked-over gourd, he rolled a long way along the base of the pillar before finally coming to a stop with a "thud" against a large tree.
Witnessing this scene, the faces of the Shi family members instantly turned ashen. They, who had previously held onto a sliver of hope, now fully understood that Fang Han had absolutely no chance of sparing the Shi family.
"Just as Mr. Fang said, the Shi family's crimes are unforgivable!"
When Prefect Han Wentian saw this scene, he naturally understood Fang Han's attitude. He stood up abruptly, the golden nanmu chair dragging on the blue brick floor with a harsh sound.
His official robes fluttered in the wind, and with a sudden wave of his right hand, he roared, "Any adult man or woman with a murder charge shall be killed without exception!"
"To catch the thief, first catch the king!"
Shi Tianyong's sharp roar suddenly rang out.
In an instant, the experts of the Shi family, like ferocious tigers unleashed from their cages, surged with powerful energy and pounced fiercely towards Prefect Han Wentian.
Shi Tianming dashed to the side, quickly picked up the spear from the ground, and with a burst of strength from his waist and bulging veins in his arms, hurled the spear at Han Wentian like lightning.
At the same time, Shi Tianming and several other poison experts suddenly threw up the poison powder in their hands. The colorful powder, carrying a pungent smell, enveloped Han Wentian like a rolling poison cloud.
"You're all courting death!"
Han Wentian's eyes widened in anger as he roared.
He never expected that the Shi family would be so audacious as to openly attack him, the prefect, and that they would cooperate so seamlessly.
The Shi family not only has several Martial Grandmasters, but also high-level Martial Grandmasters like Shi Tianyong and Wen Min. In addition, there are experts who are skilled in using poison. If I am not careful and inhale the poison powder, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Once captured by the Shi family and taken hostage, the Shi family members could very well use this opportunity to escape punishment.
"die!"
Just as Han Wentian's expression changed drastically and he swiftly gripped the hilt of his sword, Fang Han's deep shout suddenly rang out.
The Xuan Tie sword, which had been hovering above Fang Han's head, seemed to hear its master's call, emitting a clear and melodious sword cry, and with a sharp sword aura, it instantly blocked Han Wentian's path.
The surging sword energy acted like an invisible barrier, enveloping and forcing back the oncoming poison powder.
At the same time, the Xuan Tie sword trembled slightly and accurately struck the flying spear, which instantly broke in two and fell to the ground with a clang.
The Shi family experts who were at the forefront hadn't even seen the trajectory of the Xuan Tie sword when they felt a chill on their necks, followed by a gushing of warm blood. Their eyes widened in disbelief, and they collapsed to the ground.
After killing these Shi family experts, the Xuan Tie Sword did not pause at all. Like a black lightning bolt, it rushed swiftly towards the Shi family members.
Its speed was so fast that it was dazzling. Before the Shi family experts could react, they were enveloped by the sword energy of the Xuan Tie Sword.
In an instant, shrill screams filled the air, and blood mist filled the courtyard within the Shi Family Manor. One after another, the Shi Family's experts fell, their blood flowing freely on the blue brick ground, forming a river.
When the county soldiers prepared to attack according to Han Wentian's orders, all the experts gathered by the Shi family there, except for Shi Tianyong, Shi Tianming and Wen Min, had been killed.
This was not because the three were exceptionally strong, but because Fang Han intentionally kept them.
Shi Tianyong, Shi Tianming, and Wen Min watched as their companions fell one by one, their eyes filled with fear and despair.
They originally thought this sneak attack would succeed and save them from annihilation, but to their surprise, Fang Han easily cracked their carefully planned conspiracy with just a Xuan Tie sword.
"Fang Han, you...you are truly a jinx to the Shi family..."
Shi Tianyong's voice trembled violently, his eyes filled with resentment and despair.
