Chapter 240 - 240: Public Hatred
When Chu Qingzhi saw the corpses of more than ten children in the last row, she was furious. She flew to a big tree at the side, took out the jade flute, and killed all the officials, soldiers, and executioners on the market.
Under the restraint of the spiritual power, they knelt down and were killed.
When the commoners saw this scene, they were stunned first before bursting out in cheers.
These officials and soldiers were corrupt. Now that they were dead, it made everyone happy!
“The Robin Hood brothers are here to uphold justice again.”
“Quickly thank them for killing these people who really deserve to die!”
“With them, the northern border will be peaceful for a few days. I really hope that they will stay in the northern border forever.”
The people were furious, but at the same time, they praised Chu Qingzhi.
Soon, the Lord of the Northern Border heard about what happened in the market. Naturally, he was furious and immediately sent troops to kill them.
Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong naturally wouldn’t be caught so easily. After killing the soldiers and officials, they immediately fled.
In Ge mansion.
The most dangerous place was the safest place. The three of them arrived at Ge mansion, which had been confiscated.
In the pavilion, Ge Lihua cried until she was out of breath. Even the air was filled with grief, making one want to cry.
In the blink of an eye, she was the only one left in the huge family that had 200 members.
“Father, Mother, Brothers, Sisters, 1 will definitely avenge you!”
After crying for a long time, Ge Lihua restrained her sadness and calmed down.
She looked at Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong, who had solemn expressions. “Young Heroes, please follow me.”
Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong looked at each other and followed in confusion.
Ge Lihua brought the two of them to her grandfather’s study and opened the secret room. Everything in the secret room had been moved away and it was empty.
Ge Lihua stood in the middle of the secret room and took a look. In the past, this place was filled with antiques, treasures, and famous paintings. Now, there was nothing.
Seeing this, she hated the Lord of the Northern Border even more. Not only did he raid her family, but he also killed everyone in her family!
After reminiscing for a moment, she walked to a corner and pressed on the brick wall in the corner. Another secret room appeared. The secret room… was filled with gold.
Why did the people of the northern border like to collect gold so much?
Ge Lihua said, “Young heroes, this is the asset my family has accumulated over a hundred years. Three million taels of gold in total. It’s all yours now.”
Chu Qingzhi was very surprised. “Miss Ge, are you planning to assassinate the Lord of the Northern Border?”
Ge Lihua was stunned. She did not expect her thoughts to be seen through. “Young hero, the Lord of the Northern Border killed my entire family. 1 must kill him.”
Chu Qingzhi said, “Not only will you not be able to kill the Lord of the Northern Border, but you will also lose your life.”
Ge Lihua dug her nails into her palms, filled with hatred. “1 don’t care. The moment I saw my family’s corpses, 1 made up my mind.”
Chu Qingzhi thought for a moment. “You gave us so much money. We’ll kill the Lord of the Northern Border for you, but give us more time. We need to plan.”
The Lord of the Northern Border had to die sooner or later.
Ge Lihua shook her head, gritted her teeth, and said angrily, “I want to kill the Lord of the Northern Border with my own hands.”
Chu Qingzhi said, “I can let you kill him with your own hands. Give us some time.”
Ge Lihua knew very well that she would never be able to kill the Lord of the Northern Border alone.
She looked at Chu Qingzhi. The young hero’s martial arts were so much higher than hers. Perhaps he could really fulfill her wish. For this possibility, she was willing to wait, so she agreed without hesitation. “Okay.”
Tang Jinghong said, “Go and find if there are any survivors in your family. There are so many people in your family. It’s very likely that there are some who escaped like you.”
He wanted to give her some hope so that she would not do anything stupid again!
When Ge Lihua heard this, her attention was immediately diverted. “Young Hero, you’re right. 1’11 go and look around immediately.”
Seeing that it was getting late, Chu Qingzhi said, “Miss Ge, be careful. We’ll leave first.”
Ge Lihua asked, “Where are you going?”
Chu Qingzhi said, “Heavenly Snow Mountain.”
Ge Lihua was a little surprised. “To the Heavenly Snow Mountain?”
Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Yes.”
“Follow me.” Ge Lihua brought the two of them to the study outside and took a map from the bookshelf for Chu Qingzhi. “This is a map of the vicinity of the Heavenly Snow Mountain. Take it for reference.”
Chu Qingzhi unfolded the map. The map was drawn very clearly, and the landmarks were also very clear.
Ge Lihua said, “My grandfather can draw anything he has seen. This is what he drew when he bought the mountain around Heavenly Snow Mountain a few years ago.”
Chu Qingzhi said, “Miss Ge, thank you. This map can definitely come in handy.”
Ge Lihua said, “1 hope it does. There’s a long way to go from here to the Heavenly Snow Mountain. Be careful. 1’11 wait for your good news.”
Chu Qingzhi said, “Okay.”
At the mansion of the Lord of the Northern Border.
When Li Yuan’an returned to the mansion, he was completely relieved. He immediately asked someone to serve good wine and dishes. He was starving.
After eating and drinking his fill, he took a nap.
In the middle of the afternoon, after sleeping enough, he came out of his room to take a breather. Just as he walked into the corridor, he saw Li Yuanshao walking over.
Looking at the handsome and flawless Li Yuanshao, who was delicate and noble, for some reason, Li Yuan’an had an evil thought.
He walked over and grabbed Li Yuanshao’s hand, his eyes narrowed. “Where are you going, Seventh Brother?”
“Brother, please let go!” Disgust flashed across Li Yuanshao’s eyes. At the same time, he tried to pull his hand back, but Li Yuan’an held it tightly.
Li Yuan’an said frivolously, “Let go? You’re more beautiful than a woman. Why would I let go?”
Realizing something, Li Yuanshao trembled and said in disbelief, “We’re biological brothers!”
Not only did Li Yuan’an not let go, but he also whispered into his ear, “So what if we’re biological brothers? As long as you serve me well, I won’t let anyone bully you again!”
Li Yuanshao was embarrassed and angry. He was so angry that his face turned red. “How can you say such shameless words!”
Cong Chusheng stepped forward. His fists were clenched tightly, and his heart was filled with killing intent. “Eldest Prince, my master’s health is not good. Please let him go.”
Li Yuan’an gestured for the guards around him to stop Cong Chusheng. “I know that your loyal servant is good at martial arts, but are you sure he can beat the guards in the mansion? I advise you to give up.. Otherwise, I’ll send you and your servant to be gigolos to serve people every day!”
