Chapter 21 The Murderer, Shen Qing!

```

Whoosh!

As soon as Shen Qing spoke, everyone present was stunned.

They never expected that, in the face of the Chen Family's false accusations and the tragic condition of the Tian Family, Shen Qing actually... agreed to it.

Uncle Shen Er was very anxious and said, "Qingzi, are you crazy!"

After speaking, he hurriedly took a step forward and explained, "Chen Da, he's young and doesn't understand, he's just talking nonsense."

Standing nearby, Shen Qing glanced at Uncle Shen Er and noticed that his hands were trembling slightly as he spoke, clearly scared.

But having seized the opportunity, how could Chen Yuan easily give up?

The chance for the Shen Shou Sect was right in front of him.

All that was left was to pave the way with Silver.

He said coldly, "Just because he's young, doesn't mean he can't kill?"

"Chen Da, my elder brother has only this one son. If he dies, how could I face my elder brother? You're so magnanimous, please spare Qingzi. I... I'll make sure all my future hunts are sold to your family."

Shen Er knew from today onwards, he definitely offended Chen Yuan, but at this point, he had no choice but to step forward.

Everyone in the village knew he always protected this nephew, but when real trouble came, would he really hide like a coward?

That was something he couldn't accept no matter what.

He didn't want to live having people point at his back in scorn.

The villagers watching this scene all felt a pang of sympathy in their hearts.

Recently, Chen Yuan had been frequenting Shen Qing's house, and everyone knew his intentions.

Now that Chen Yuan had caught this opportunity, he definitely wouldn't let it go easily.

Shen Qing must have realized this, which was why he confessed.

He was truly pitiful!

But even knowing this, at most, they could only feel sympathy in their hearts.

They certainly didn't dare to stand up like Shen Er.

Faced with the Chen Family, they only dared to harbor resentment without speaking up.

Shen Qing surveyed those around him, taking in all their reactions.

He smiled softly, placed his trembling hands over Shen Er's, and shook his head, saying, "It's useless. At this point, how could Chen Yuan let me go?"

Uncle Shen Er opened his mouth as if to say something more, but saw Shen Qing already walking towards Chen Yuan.

Though Shen Qing was only fifteen years old, thanks to recent practices and nutrition from meat, his body had grown quite tall.

He looked directly at Chen Yuan, unflinching, and said, "Do you want to know how your brother actually died back then?"

The expression on Chen Yuan's face gradually faded, and he squinted, scrutinizing Shen Qing.

Something felt off.

Shen Qing was too calm.

There was no sense of fear at all.

It was simply illogical.

It wasn't just him; others also felt a strange familiarity looking at Shen Qing.

But Shen Qing paid no mind to these surprised glances.

Approaching Chen Yuan, he said, "Your third brother Chen An, I shot two arrows through his heart before he even reacted. When he died, his eyes were as wide as saucers."

"Your second brother Chen Tai was shot in the throat by my arrow, without even a chance to scream. His last gasps sounded like a broken bellows."

By the time he said this, Shen Qing had reached Chen Yuan, meeting his eyes, "So... what will you do?"

The scene fell into deadly silence.

In the next moment, Chen Yuan felt a surge of anger rush up his spine with a "boom" to his head, erupting like a volcano as he roared, "You're looking for death!"

Enraged, Chen Yuan threw a punch at Shen Qing, the force swift and fierce like the wind.

Shen Qing's five fingers flexed and tightly clamped onto Chen Yuan's wrist.

Chen Yuan tried to retract his wrist, but found Shen Qing's five fingers gripping like pincers, impossible to escape.

Shen Qing's eyes lifted slightly, exuding an icy chill.

At this moment, in his eyes, Chen Yuan was hardly different from the prey he hunted.

He suddenly thrust his foot forward.

With a dull thud, he kicked Chen Yuan in the abdomen.

All of his Qi-Blood surged in that instant, flooding into his right leg, causing the muscles on each side of the thigh to tighten like iron, releasing a terrifying force.

Chen Yuan was lifted off the ground by the kick, his whole body airborne.

Just as Shen Qing hooked into Chen Yuan's hand, pulling forward with the momentum.

Thud.

The towering Chen Yuan was thrown down by Shen Qing, hitting the ground heavily.

Shen Qing twisted his wrist.

Crack, crack, crack...

Chen Yuan's wrist bones were completely crushed by Shen Qing, emitting a piercing scream.

Yet Shen Qing ignored this, expressionless as he sat astride Chen Yuan's back, grabbed his hair, and lifted his face.

He had sharp eyes and saw a broken arrow with an arrowhead among the pile of stuff the Chen family had thrown while raiding.

Grabbing it without hesitation, like slaughtering prey, he drove the arrow into Chen Yuan's throat.

The rusty arrowhead emerged from the other side of Chen Yuan's neck, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

"Gurgle... gurgle..."

Chen Yuan wanted to speak but couldn't utter a word as blood foam seeped from his mouth and nose.

Shen Qing wiped the blood off his face and thought of Chen Yuan as merely so much.

He couldn't understand why everyone feared someone like him.

"Ah, murder, you've killed Chen Yuan!"

Chen Dajiang shouted flustered nearby, waking everyone present as if from a dream, causing chaos.

The Chen family members escorting the Tian Family looked at each other and stepped back two paces instinctively, releasing the Tian Family member under Shen Qing's imposing aura.

They hadn't expected Shen Qing would truly go for the kill and murder the eldest son of the mountain drivers' family right in front of everyone.

Clean and neat!

Hardly any hesitation.

Suddenly, they felt their scalps tingle with fear.

Some of the more cowardly trembled, barely able to stand.

"He actually did it!"

"The eldest of the Shen Family didn't seem like this before but turned out so ruthless."

"Didn't Chen Yuan practice martial arts? How could he not defeat Shen Qing? If I'd known he was so weak, I wouldn't have held back that day and would've fought back directly."

Everyone who came to watch was shocked.

Uncle Shen Er, standing to the side, was so stunned he could hardly speak.

In his impression, Shen Qing had always been an honest and obedient child.

His skills were unrefined, timid, not smart enough.

For this reason, he was always subservient and submissive to everyone he met.

But now the Shen Qing before him emanated a malevolent energy, brimming with murderous intent.

That fierce aura surpassed even the old hunters in the village, making one shiver.

Shen Qing ignored everyone, turning his gaze to Chen Dajiang.

Chen Dajiang felt his scalp tingle, cold from head to toe.

Shen Qing took a deep breath, his entire body flushed as Qi-Blood surged, turning his complexion red.

The muscles in his thighs swelled as a power far beyond usual surged forth under the influence of Qi-Blood.

He looked directly at Chen Dajiang and said, "I never thought, as a neighbor, you could be so shameless? But you know what? Those who stick their necks out first usually die fastest."

"I didn't do anything, just talking nonsense. Let me..."

Just as Chen Dajiang was defending himself, Shen Qing swung a leg sideways.

Thud!

Chen Dajiang, who had been standing, screamed as his legs were completely broken and he fell to the ground.

Clearly, Shen Qing intended no mercy.

He was known for his small-minded and vengeful nature.

Anything he could settle today, he definitely wouldn't delay until tomorrow.
