Chapter 68: Flying in Mid-air

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

Linjiang City, Martial Suppression Division

Qin Lei, the leader of the Martial Suppression Division, stood before Su Yang, appearing like a well-behaved child who had done something wrong. “Well, I’m aware of the situation in Linjiang City, so I don’t blame you.”

“Do you have the statistics on the losses suffered by the people of Linjiang

Su Yang sat in the main seat and spoke softly.

In the hall, apart from Qin Lei, there were other officials from Linjiang City, including the county magistrate and the chief.

When Su Yang asked this question, Qi Song, the chief, immediately spoke up. “Your Excellency, the losses are incalculable. It has been a year, too long…” “Then give me an approximate range.”

“Well… including injuries and deaths, the losses suffered by the people could be around two hundred thousand taels of silver.

Qi Song provided a conservative estimate.

“Understood.” Su Yang stood up. “Next, Qin Lei and I will visit Snake Gate. How about that?”

Qin Lei already knew what Su Yang had done in the prefecture city and had long been excited about it.

Su Yang was someone who could defeat a First Grade expert!contemporary romance

He might have even reached the Grandmaster level.

Although news traveled relatively slowly in this era, as an official, Qin Lei was among the first to know.

“Old Gu, accompany him.”

Su Yang stood up and walked toward the door.

Outside the door, with a step in the air, his sword intent supported him, allowing Su Yang to hover in mid-air.

“Sir, let’s go.” Gu Xiu took out his long sword and gestured for Qin Lei to step on it.

Qin Lei, who was already stunned, finally reacted and quickly stepped on.

Wow, he really is a Grandmaster.

He had only thought about it before.

The three of them soared into the air and flew towards Snake Gate, not far away.

The people in the hall were all dumbfounded. Su Yang… is a Grandmaster?

And the old man accompanying him… is also a Grandmaster?

The news of Su Yang’s deeds in the Bai Duan Mountains had not yet spread, so these people naturally had no idea about Su Yang’s true strength. But they knew that those who could fly were usually Grandmasters.

And now, they saw two of them.

In that case… the insignificant Snake Gate… well, they would meet their end soon!

Snake Gate

Su Yang and the other two were hovering in the air above.

“Where is the Master of Snake Gate?”

Su Yang’s voice was soft but echoed throughout the entire area of Snake Gate.

The disciples of Snake Gate who were present looked up at the sky.

“Grandmaster!”

“Flying in mid-air, the techniques of a Grandmaster!”

Amidst the exclamation of the crowd, Feng Chengyou quickly arrived at the gate from inside and bowed to the sky. “I am Feng Chengyou, the Master of

Snake Gate. I greet all the esteemed seniors.”

With a Grandmaster present, he dared not show any disrespect.

There were no Grandmasters in Tianfeng Prefecture.

Recently, the Evil Blood Cultivation Sect had caused chaos in Tianfeng Prefecture, but he didn’t know what business they had with him.

Su Yang descended slowly and stood in front of Feng Chengyou.

“My name is Su Yang, the Four-Direction Inspector of the Martial Suppression Division in Tianfeng Prefecture. Qin Lei is under my command, and I heard that you have been uncooperative.”

Su Yang’s voice was soft, but Feng Chengyou instantly broke out in a cold sweat, his mind going blank.

An envoy from the imperial court… but why?

The imperial court’s current situation was so bad, yet they still had time to deal with him?

Although he thought so, in the presence of a Grandmaster, cooperation was the most important thing.

“I know my mistake. Please give me a chance, Your Excellency.”

Under immense pressure, Feng Chengyou quickly spoke up.

Su Yang’s voice was indeed calm, but at this level of cultivation, he could also end someone’s life just as calmly.

“Oh? It seems you are quite reasonable.”

Qin Lei couldn’t help but want to laugh. How could he not be reasonable? “I can give you a chance.” Su Yang said calmly, “But I have three requirements.” “Please speak, Your Excellency.” Feng Chengyou lowered himself even further.

In Snake Gate, Chu Sen, who was responsible for this matter, felt his heart stop beating.

He hadn’t expected Qin Lei’s words to be true, that someone from above would indeed come to handle this.

But he didn’t expect it to be a Grandmaster…

He looked at Qin Lei at this moment, his eyes full of resentment, as if saying,

“We have been working together for so many years, and you didn’t remind me.”

Coincidentally, Qin Lei also looked at him, his mouth slightly curved with a proud expression.

Remind him?

Didn’t he remind him?

It was because he didn’t listen. It’s not my fault.

What happened to that rebellious spirit before?

I still prefer the way you were before.

“First, in the past year, the people of Jinjiang City have suffered losses of approximately six hundred thousand taels of silver. Now, compensate them.”

Huh?

Didn’t Qi Song say it was two hundred thousand?

Qin Lei momentarily didn’t react and almost wanted to remind him.

“No problem.” Feng Chengyou’s face turned bitter. The first requirement was likely to directly cut into his own flesh.

Six hundred thousand… is there really that much?

He remembered that the most silver they had consumed in a year for raising snakes was only a hundred thousand…

But since a Grandmaster had spoken, he seemed to have no right to refuse.

For a moment, he suddenly understood how ordinary people felt.

“Second, since your sect needs venomous snakes, purchase them at a normal price. I believe the people would be willing to raise them.”

“We gain such great power through martial arts, so if we still need to oppress the people, I don’t think any of you need to practice martial arts.”

“Third, for the Snake Gate disciples who have killed ordinary people, they will be dealt with according to the laws of Daxia, and the mastermind behind this affair will also need to provide an explanation.”

Su Yang calmly finished speaking.

This was the advantage of having strength. In this world, solving certain problems would become much easier when you had power.

Of course, the prerequisite was not to hide your strength and create trouble for yourself.

Just like today, if Su Yang had gone up the mountain normally, he would definitely have encountered some trouble.

By directly displaying his Grandmaster-level strength, would the other party dare to say no?

“I will cooperate fully with Inspector Qin,” Feng Chengyou quickly agreed.

He didn’t have the capital to refuse.

He immediately arranged for someone to fetch the silver bills.

As Su Yang had said, with the current strength of his sect, it wasn’t too difficult to earn silver.

But saving tens of thousands of taels of silver in a year was still a considerable amount of money.

After obtaining the six hundred thousand taels of silver, Feng Chengyou respectfully handed it over to Su Yang.

Even if he felt heartache, he couldn’t say no.

Su Yang gestured for Qin Lei to come forward and take it.

And so, the money ended up in Qin Lei’s hands.

After easily handling these two matters, Su Yang did not leave yet.

There was still one more thing that hadn’t been resolved.

“Is there someone named Jiang Xiaoyu in Snake Gate?”

There were two tasks related to Snake Gate in Jinjiang City.

When Zhang Cui inquired about Snake Gate, he also asked about Jiang Xiaoyu.

Jiang Xiaoyu was a disciple of Snake Gate. But he was a good person.

Yes, a good person among the disciples of Snake Gate.

Like other ordinary disciples of Snake Gate, he had to collect venomous snakes from the people every month. If the people couldn’t produce them, it would inevitably result in the Snake Gate disciples beating them.

But Jiang Xiaoyu couldn’t bring himself to do it. Not only did he refuse to do it himself, he also prevented others from doing it, intervening to stop his fellow disciples.

This annoyed the arrogant Snake Gate disciples.

You like being a good person, huh?

You like being different, huh?

Maybe they couldn’t stand Jiang Xiaoyu, or maybe Jiang Xiaoyu had hit a sore spot for them.

A few disciples of Snake Gate, in front of the people, beat Jiang Xiaoyu.

But that was just the beginning…

The disciples who beat Jiang Xiaoyu issued a statement that as long as Jiang

Xiaoyu took responsibility for beating the people in the area he was in charge of collecting snakes, they would spare the people in his area of responsibility.

You like being a good person, right?

If you have the ability, continue being one. If you can’t, go beat the people you are supposed to protect.

These disciples of Snake Gate forced Jiang Xiaoyu to do evil, to force him to become a villain.

In a group of villains, a good person cannot exist.

Using their evil to support your goodness?

To show that you are greater and kinder than us, and expect the people to love you?

Why?

And so, Jiang Xiaoyu had silently endured being beaten for six months.

Zhang Cui had told Su Yang all of this.

As for why she knew so much, it was because Zhang Cui was one of the people Jiang Xiaoyu protected.

She fed the snakes with her own eggs, hoping that the snakes would grow quickly and that Jiang Xiaoyu wouldn’t get beaten.

Even if her own life became harder..
