Chapter 257 Heavy Price: Die Without A Whole Body
“Who are you?” Staring sharply at the black-haired old man in the front, Qin Hao gave him an oppressive and murderous look.

Just then, the old guy suddenly popped out to block the saber and saved Wu Gang.

Wu Gang on the ground saw the old man. He was very surprised. He climbed over and clung to the old man’s legs, then burst into tears, “Big brother, big brother, you finally come. Please help me!”

“You bastard!” The old man kicked Wu Gang to the ground, outraged. He raised the black iron whip in his hand.

“No, big brother, I am sorry. I am sorry.” Wu Gang cried, “I’m your only brother.”

“You‒.” Although his face turned black, the old man hesitated, and didn’t whipped him.

Qin Hao looked at them indifferently. He understood. It turned out that the old guy was Wu Gang’s big brother. That was why he jumped out to save Wu Gang.

Well, could he make it? Wu Gang must die today.

“Master Qin, I am Wu He, and this troublesome guy is my younger brother. Just then I was too anxious to save him. I’m sorry to offend you. Please forgive me.” Wu He said in a polite manner and low attitude.

Wu He was the Elder of Clan Guarding of the Su family. In terms of his status and strength, there were only few people whom he would speak with in such a low attitude. However, he dared not put on airs in front of Qin Hao.

He knew well about Qin Hao’s style. This guy feared nothing and only those who were strong could gain his approval. What’s more, Qin Hao himself was incredibly strong, so Wu He considered that he should not provoke such a person.

From the bottom of his heart, he was extremely reluctant to provoke such a person as Qin Hao. But things went contrary to his wish. On this morning at the Su Family, when Su Xue heard the name of Qin Hao and ran out regardless of any consequences, he let his disciple Fan Jian come with Su Xue.

The two went to the Sunset District. Fan Jian was unable to dissuade Su Xue, therefore, depended on his martial techniques, he quietly sneaked into the restricted area set by soldiers, and entered the outer-ring of the battle zone in the Sunset District. However, they were unfortunately discovered by Wu Gang…

Wu Gang had deliberately learned about Qin Hao’s relationships. He knew that Su Xue of Su Family had a good relationship with Qin Hao, so he kidnapped Su Xue.

For Wu He’s sake, Wu Gang let Fan Jian go. Fan Jian went back to convey the news. Wu He came here immediately to save Su Xue, but it turned out to be he was saving Wu Gang’s life.

Wu He hated what Wu Gang had done. Knowing that Wu Gang had kidnapped Su Xue under the circumstance that Wu Gang knew he was the Elder of Clan Guarding of Su Family, he even wanted to kill Wu Gang. But after all Wu Gang was his only brother that he was unwilling to take his life. So now he had to offend Qin Hao for this troublesome brother. How annoying!

Qin Hao did not care whether Wu Gang was Wu He’s brother or not. All he wanted was to kill Wu Gang today.

“You want to save him?” Qin Hao asked coldly. His cold eyes made Wu He feel a little guilty.

Wu He eased his emotions and held his fist to Qin Hao, which was a courtesy of Martial Cultivators, “Please spare his life, Master Qin.”

“I would like to do as you wish, but unfortunately, he crossed the line, so he must die. No one can save him.” Qin Hao looked at Wu Gang coldly.

Wu Gang shuddered and cried, “Big brother, help me. Help me. I don’t wanna die. I don’t wanna die.”

“You don’t want to die, huh? So why were you courting death?” Wu He kicked him to the ground, outraged. As strong as him, he could have escaped in time, but he went to save Long Yubai. What a stupid decision! He got trapped while Long Yubai left easily.

“I, I am sorry. I am really sorry, big brother.” Just then when Wu Gang was treading on air, he didn’t expect the situation could be reversed. He thought Qin Hao could not get tough on him. On the contrary, he could control Qin Hao with Su Xue, in order to vent his rage on Qin Hao.

When he was threatening Qin Hao, he was delighted to see Qin Hao’s sullen look and he did have fun. However, the price was he was now going to die of Qin Hao’s rage and murderous intention.

He regretted it. He should have run away as far as he could, but now it was too late. He could only count on Wu He to save him.

“Master Qin, as you can see, this little beast has known he was wrong. You also hacked him, so he was punished. I will take him back and teach him to do the right thing. Please do me a favor to spare his life.” Wu He pleaded.

“Favor?” Qin Hao humphed in disdain, “Please give me a reason for it.”

“Well…” Wu He paused. He could not find a reason to let Qin Hao do him a favor, for they were not relatives nor friends. It was not Qin Hao’s responsibility to listen to him.

Wu He thought for a moment, and his eyes turned onto Su Xue who was still lying behind Qin Hao. An idea came to his mind. He said cheekily, “Master Qin, I am the Elder of Clan Guarding of the Su family, and Su Xue’s grandfather and I are good friends. It can be said that I am also Su Xue’s grandfather, and she used to call me grandfather, too. For Su Xue’s sake, would you do me a favor?”

“So, you are Elder of Clan Guarding of the Su family?” Qin Hao’s face twitched, and his sardonic look was even more obvious, “Don’t you think this is ridiculous? You are the Elder of Clan Guarding of the Su family, while your brother kidnapped Su Xue. Now he is in front of you, but you are pleading for him. Who are you protecting?”

“I…” He blushed at this question. He was indeed embarrassed.

“Well, go back and think about your duties. I have no time to chat with you. Go away, now. Today Wu Gang must die, even God could not save him.” Qin Hao stepped forward and liberated his murderous intention.

Wu Gang was scared into crying, “Big Brother, help me. Big Brother help me, help me.”

“Master Qin, you really want to kill him today?” Wu He was also anxious. His face suddenly cooled down. Just then he spoke good to Qin Hao in such a low attitude, but Qin Hao still didn’t want to spare Wu Gang. That made him uncomfortable. In the capital city, let alone ordinary people, even those important people in the government had to take him into account.

“I’ve told you that I’ll kill all those people who tried to threaten me. Do you think I’m joking? Let me say it again, go away. Otherwise, I will kill you, too!” Qin Hao pointed his saber to Wu He. His eyes were sharp, arrogant, and domineering.

“Master Qin, one should keep a way open for retreat, so don’t force people too much. Do you know what will happen to you if kill my brother?” Wu He’s face was getting colder and colder.

“Is that a threat?” Qin Hao’s face was colder than him.

“No, I’m just reminding you.” Wu He replied, “My brother’s Shifu is an expert from the Semi-Ancient Martial World. If you kill my brother now, his Shifu will come to take revenge for him. At that time, do you think you can withstand the rage from a Semi-Ancient Martial Cultivator?”

“Hahaha…” Qin Hao scorned loudly, “A Semi-Ancient Martial Cultivator? I have killed a dozen of them. Take revenge on me if they can! Now, it’s his time to die!”

In the roar of anger, Qi Hao jumped into the air. The scarlet blade pierced the sky with a long crack and smote toward the ground.

“Big brother, save me! No-!” Wu Gang screamed hysterically.

“Stop!” Wu He desperately threw himself at Wu Gang, raising his black iron whip against Qin Hao’s blade.

“Old rat, you asked for it.” Qin Hao roared. Angry flame burning in his eyes translated to immense force on the Scarlet Blood Saber, coloring it with a harsher scarlet. Blood-thirsty wind screamed around him, then surged towards Wu He.

“Clang, clang, clang…”

Over the roof, a red figure and a black figure, an old man and a young man were fighting against together.

Wu Gang who was still lying on the ground watching them fighting. Squinting his eyes, he realized it was the best chance to escape. So, he quickly got up, and pressed on the bloody wounds on the shoulder. Enduring sharp pain, he staggered towards the skylight on the roof.

“Do you think you can go away as you wish?” In the battle in the air, Qin Hao shouted. He beat Wu He away with a heavy hack, and even Wu He’s iron whip was cut a section off.

Qin Hao took this chance to get free from the battle. The Scarlet Blood Saber flew across the sky, leaving a flame line behind. It stabbed into Wu Gang’s body from the back and left from the front. A hand waiting in the front held the hilt firmly.

Wu Gang stood still, looking at the bloody hole in his belly in horror. He could only make “uh-huh” sound in his throat. Blood poured out of his mouth.

“You…just wait and see. My…Shifu…will, won’t…let go of…you…” He spat out these words with much effort.

“Let your Shifu come. I am waiting for him.” Qin Hao slashed his saber. A scarlet light sliced through Wu Gang’s neck. His head flew into the sky and then fell down to the ground.

“Brother! No‒!” Wu He screamed in grief, trying to catch the head but grasped only air.

Now, his younger brother died without an entire body. He had become a corpse without a head, collapsing into a pool of blood. He disappeared from this world forever.

He did not realize it until he died. This was the price he had to pay for kidnapping Su Xue to threaten Qin Hao. The price was too heavy.

“Qin Hao, you-!” Wu He stared at Qin Hao, outraged.

Qin Hao turned an indifferent face to Wu He’s rage, “Old rat, do not look at me like this. He asked for it. If you want to avenge your brother, just come. For Su Xue’s sake, I’ll spare your life. Next time you won’t have such good luck. Since you are the Elder of Clan Guarding of Su Family, you take in charge of Su Xue. If anything wrong happened to her, I’d cut off your head.” Qin Hao finished speaking, then disappeared on the top of the building in a flash. He ran towards somewhere below.

He was in a rush to chase Long Yubai. Just now he used Spirit Sense to ascertain which direction Long Yubai escaped to. When he was in the late period of the Third Stage Martial Cultivator, the range of his Spirit Sense was one point five kilometers. Now it had been expanded to two kilometers.

As long as Long Yubai was still within two kilometers around him, Long Yubai couldn’t escape.

He could not let go of Long Yubai, otherwise, there would be endless troubles. If Long Yubai’s strongholds all over the world began to gather together and fight back, the world would be in chaos, and he had to get around to solve the problems all the time. However, the key was he didn’t have the time. He had a lot of things to do.

Therefore, Long Yubai must be killed in order to make his followers disband, then the government would crush or tame them one by one.

That was why Qin Hao had not entangled with Wu He. He didn’t have time. At this moment, the distance between Long Yubai and him was stretching to more than two kilometers: He was running out of the range of his Spirit Sense. He had to speed up to chase after him.

Otherwise, given his character, Wu He would pay more than he had afforded.
