Chapter 33: You Don’t Play Fairly!

Towards Hua Sheng’s joke, Gong Ziliang replied sternly, “Cut the crap. Where’s the goods?”

After all, with his status, he had to put on a show. Now that he was the boss and was carrying out a heinous act, how could he not be strict?

At the same time, Gong Ziliang also noticed that the second-in-charge of the Hua Family’s escort agency, Hua Li, was also there. He was standing in front of the three carriages and smiling disdainfully.

When he heard this, Hua Sheng was stunned. It seemed that he could not joke around. He turned sideways and stretched out his hand to indicate behind him, “Here.”

Gong Ziliang tilted his head. A seventh-stage Qi Refinement Realm guard beside him stretched out his leg and kicked, and he quickly appeared in front of Hua Sheng as if he was walking on water.

As he stood there, Hua Sheng could fully sense a surge of spiritual qi that assaulted his face. He did not need to test to know that this fellow’s realm had far surpassed his.

He paused in his heart. As expected of the buyer, any follower beside him had such a high cultivation realm!

However, when this black-clothed guard wanted to continue walking forward, Hua Sheng raised his hand to stop him, “Wait, we’ll exchange the money and goods at the same time.”

Even though his cultivation realm was suppressed by the other party, doing business was like this. One thing was for sure, handing over money and handing over goods was a natural thing.

Upon hearing this, the guard immediately released the spiritual qi in his body. The sand and rocks on the ground rolled up along with it, and killing intent surged. At this moment, he only cared about the safety of the fifteen children and could not care less.

At this time, Gong Ziliang’s fake voice sounded from behind, “Wait!”

Gong Ziliang hurriedly stopped him. He placed his hands behind his back and said casually, “As long as we ensure that those brats are healthy, we can sell them for a good price. We’ll naturally hand you the amount you deserve.”

When Hua Sheng heard this, his expression was still as calm as before.

After thinking for a few seconds, he sighed and said, “Please go ahead.”

At this point, they could only do as this person said. Hua Sheng had no choice.

After all, he had such a follower that far exceeded his realm beside him. If they really fell out with each other and could not get anything out of it, their Hua Clan’s escort agency would be the ones on the losing end.

It was very likely that he would not even get a single cent in the end, or even lose his life.

Therefore, instead of being bold and stubborn, it was better to be honest.

In any case, these fifteen children were well fed every day and were not hungry at all.

Once he took the money, he would leave for good.

Since Hua Sheng said so, the guard raised his foot and walked towards the three carriages that Hua Sheng pointed at.

At the same time, the nine people on Gong Ziliang’s side approached, all of them calculating in their minds.

When Hua Li, who had been standing in front of the carriages, saw the seventh-stage Qi Refinement Realm guard coming over, he was completely suppressed by the latter’s cultivation level, so he had no choice but to hurriedly open the carriages.

The three carriages were different from usual. They were huge boxes with a wooden door at the back. It was locked.

When Hua Li took out the key and opened it, five crying children entered their sight.

Every one of them was dirty, but they did not lose weight. In terms of food, Hua Li and Hua Sheng took good care of them. As long as the children were healthy, they could be sold for the highest price.

Similarly, the wooden doors of the other two carriages were also opened. The guard counted them one by one. After confirming that there were fifteen children, he nodded at Gong Ziliang.

Hua Sheng also saw this, so he asked, “How is it? The fifteen children ate until they were white and chubby. It’s definitely what you want.”

Gong Ziliang’s hands were still placed behind his back as he slowly nodded and said, “Yes, it’s indeed not bad to see them like this.”

“Then this money…”

Hua Sheng asked. To be honest, he was not sure if these people would give him the full price…

“Give him the money.”

Gong Ziliang turned his head and said to Bai Chuxia.

Just as Bai Chuxia nodded in agreement, the guard standing in front of the three carriages also moved.

He took out a longsword from his spatial ring and suddenly used a martial technique to stab at Hua Li, who was closest to him.

Swoosh!

Immediately, blood splattered.

“Brother!”

Hua Sheng roared in shock. Just as he was about to unleash a Tiger Roar Fist Technique at Gong Ziliang and Bai Chuxia, the other two guards had already moved.

In the blink of an eye, they each threw a punch.

Boom!

Amidst a wave of sand and rocks flying in all directions, Hua Sheng, who was at the first-stage Qi Refinement Realm, was directly blasted flying. He rolled on the ground a few times before finally stopping in front of the tree trunk.

Extreme pain spread from his chest. The muscles in his body were damaged on a large scale. His muscles cracked, and he could not move. He spat out blood.

He looked at Gong Ziliang with difficulty and said, “You… don’t play… fairly!”

“Tsk…”

Gong Ziliang smiled and said in his original voice, “Play fairly? How can there be fairness when dealing with people like you who have done all kinds of bad things? It’s already very good that I didn’t kill you directly.”

“You…”

Hua Sheng was shocked and carefully sized up Gong Ziliang. This figure, this spiritual qi perception, and this voice were so familiar as if he had seen it before.

After pondering for a moment, Hua Sheng suddenly widened his eyes and shouted in surprise, “It’s… it’s you! Aren’t you… cough cough… Didn’t you fall into the canyon?”

Hua Sheng could not understand. With this fellow’s cultivation level at the seventh-stage Martial Body Realm, even if he had the eighth-stage Martial Body cultivator from the Heavenly Path in the canyon, he would more or less be injured.

Coupled with the fact that both of them had suffered from his first-stage Qi Refinement Realm Tiger Roar Fist Technique, and there were many demonic cats of different realms under the canyon, it was impossible for them to escape unscathed from the canyon.

Even he could not do it in the past, let alone the two of them…

However, Gong Ziliang was indeed standing here unscathed and had even found help.

As expected, this escort mission was too dangerous!

When he thought up to here, Hua Sheng no longer struggled to support this crippled body. He directly lay on the ground and looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the sky through the green leaves.

He slowly said, “Since things have come to this, come, give me a swift death!”

“Swift death?” Gong Ziliang said thoughtfully, “I’m afraid not.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards directly tied Hua Sheng up. Now, Hua Sheng’s meridians were crippled, and he could be said to be no different from a cripple.

However, Gong Ziliang indeed would not take his life. He wanted to give the commoners of Cloud Glow City an explanation. Similarly, he wanted to ask Hua Sheng about the person above him, who was also from the Profound Heaven Sect.

Seeing that their boss was crippled and the second-in-charge was heavily injured, those escorts who originally wanted to use their weapons to fight with Gong Ziliang and the others all took the initiative to surrender.

They knew very well that their strength was completely insufficient. If they wanted to run, they would definitely not be able to escape. Instead of doing this, it was better to take the initiative to surrender. There was still a chance of survival.

After tidying up everything, Gong Ziliang was finally free…
