Sour Pickled Peanuts

Chapter 104 Not Killing You Is Already a Favor

Jin Aoyun's eyes flickered with fear upon hearing this.

"I dare not."

Qin Hanchu smiled and said, "If you surrender, you must be more loyal. Traitors often meet a bad end."

Jin Aoyun quickly replied, "I understand."

"Here is a prescription for you, it can extend your life by a few years." Qin Hanchu walked to Shen Wanfeng's side and handed him a pre-written prescription.

Shen Wanfeng was thrilled to receive the prescription and said, "Thank you."

"I still need your help, so I will naturally let you live longer," Qin Hanchu said.

"As long as you protect the Shen family, I will entrust this old life to you," Shen Wanfeng said.

Qin Hanchu nodded, "You may leave now, as if nothing has happened."

"Sir, I was wrong before, please give me a chance."

At this moment, Jin Longxing knelt on the ground and said.

"I never said I was going to kill you, what are you afraid of?" Qin Hanchu asked.

Jin Longxing quickly said, "Please, sir, help me heal my arm. I will do my best to serve you in the future."

"Not killing you is already a favor, and moreover, you are not qualified to work for me," Qin Hanchu said before turning back to the pavilion for tea.

Jin Longxing heard this and sat on the ground in despair.

"We shall take our leave," Jin Aoyun said, pulling Jin Longxing away.

After Shen Wanfeng and the others left, Wan Tong came and sat opposite Qin Hanchu.

"Without the poisoned pills, can they be trusted?" Wan Tong asked worriedly.

Qin Hanchu took a sip of tea and smiled, "In the face of absolute strength, they know how to choose."

"What are your plans next?" Wan Tong asked.

"Have the seller of this book been found?" Qin Hanchu picked up the tattered book on the table and asked.

Wan Tong shook her head, "The Yan Ding Chamber of Commerce has very good security. We couldn't find out."

"Give me a copy of the Yan Ding Chamber of Commerce's information. I'll talk to their helmsman when I have time," Qin Hanchu said.

...

Lu Shan Prefecture, Suspended Sword Division Branch.

"Jin Aoyun and Shen Wanfeng just left like that?" The speaker was the Prefect of the Suspended Sword Division, who controlled the Suspended Sword Division in the entire Lu Shan Prefecture.

The Suspended Sword Division had been keeping an eye on Jin Aoyun and Shen Wanfeng.

He had expected Qin Hanchu to fall this time, but he didn't expect Qin Hanchu to be fine.

Qin Hanchu killed members of the Shen family, and Shen Wanfeng just let it go?

"It's the same as the Kong family's situation. They talked about something, and then the conflict was resolved."

The Prefect frowned. This was too bizarre.

These were two Grandmasters. What means did Qin Hanchu use to make two Grandmasters let go of their hatred!

The death of his family's juniors at Qin Hanchu's hands was a blood feud.

"Have Qin Hanchu's accompanying Grandmasters been investigated?" the Prefect asked again.

"They have always worn masks, and we haven't been able to find out for now."

"But I have a guess."

The Prefect looked at his subordinate curiously, "Tell me about it."

"The five masters sent by the Swordsman organization to assassinate Qin Hanchu have disappeared one after another. Could it be that Qin Hanchu subdued them?"

"One of the Grandmasters accompanying Qin Hanchu often carries a wine gourd, which matches the drunkard from the Swordsman."

"Furthermore, the old ghost of the Swordsman is at the peak of the Grandmaster realm."

"His physique is very similar to the peak Grandmaster accompanying Qin Hanchu."

The Prefect was silent for a long time, then nodded, "It's reasonable and well-founded, so it must be true. What methods does this Qin Hanchu have to make a peak Grandmaster betray the Swordsman?"

"Prefect, should we warn him? The commotion he's been making lately is a bit too much."

"Also, Old Ghost and the others are all targets we are pursuing."

The Prefect shook his head, "No need to warn him, he will leave Lu Shan Prefecture soon. We don't need to create conflict with him."

"He's leaving Lu Shan Prefecture? How do you know?"

"Pay more attention to the imperial documents, and you'll know," the Prefect said with a smile. "By the way, go and withdraw the wanted order for Old Ghost and the other five, and then arrange a meeting with him for me."

"What does this mean?"

"It's a favor, and also a way to get acquainted with him in advance," the Prefect said with a smile.

Also in Lu Shan Prefecture.

Mu Zhengrong finally woke up from his coma.

At this time, he had already learned about the auction from the Commander.

"The Shen family's Grandmaster made a move, Qin Hanchu was bound to die." Although Mu Zhengrong had woken up, he was still unable to get up.

Old Ghost and the other five had been too ruthless. Mu Zhengrong would need at least a month to recover before he could get out of bed.

Just then, the Commander's phone rang.

After answering the call, the Commander's expression froze.

"What's wrong?" Mu Zhengrong asked.

"The Shen family's Grandmaster didn't make a move and left directly."

"Even the Jin family's Grandmaster did not harm Qin Hanchu," the Commander said in shock.

"What? Qin Hanchu killed the Shen family's direct descendants, and the Shen family's Grandmaster didn't seek revenge?" Mu Zhengrong said angrily.

The Commander said with a dark face, "What trump card does this Qin Hanchu have? Even the Grandmasters dare not provoke him."

"Is there no way to deal with him?" Mu Zhengrong roared in anger.

"It's not that there's no way. As long as the matter is handed over to the Sharp Sword Division," the Commander said.

"The Sharp Sword Division doesn't handle these matters," Mu Zhengrong said.

The Commander said coldly, "While the martial arts disputes among citizens are indeed not managed by the Sharp Sword Division, all five Grandmasters accompanying Qin Hanchu are killers from the Swordsman organization. Surely the Sharp Sword Division handles this!"

"Are you sure?" Mu Zhengrong's eyes lit up.

"I have compared them carefully. The peak Grandmaster should be the Old Ghost from the Swordsman."

"As for the one who smells of alcohol, it's the Drunkard from the Swordsman."

"The remaining three should be the missing killers from the Swordsman," the Commander said.

"Good. As long as these five are dealt with, no one will be able to stop us from killing Qin Hanchu," Mu Zhengrong said excitedly.

The Commander sneered, "I'll go to the Sharp Sword Division now and have them send strong individuals to kill Old Ghost and the other five!"

An hour later, the Commander of Quan Town arrived at the branch of the Sharp Sword Division.

When the Commander of Quan Town arrived, the Prefect of the Sharp Sword Division naturally came out to greet him.

After a brief greeting, the Commander explained the matter of Old Ghost and the other five.

Upon hearing this, the Prefect of the Sharp Sword Division immediately dispatched people to retrieve the information on Old Ghost and the other five.

"Prefect, the comparison results are out."

"These five are indeed top killers from the Swordsman organization, namely the Heavenly ranked Old Ghost, Drunkard, and the triplets of the Earthly ranked first."

Soon, the Sharp Sword Division confirmed the identities of Old Ghost and the other five.

"Thank you, Commander, for providing the evidence. I will personally lead people to the Island City to apprehend them," the Prefect of the Sharp Sword Division said excitedly.

These were Grandmaster-level killers.

If these five were captured, it would be a great achievement for him.

"If this matter is successful, it will definitely shock the entire Sharp Sword Division. I heard that the Director of the Sharp Sword Division is about to retire, and this position will definitely be yours," the Commander said with a smile.

"After this is done, I will invite the Commander for drinks," the Prefect of the Sharp Sword Division said with a smile, suppressing his excitement.
