Chapter 87 Life Should Not Be Cut Short

All for this day. An innocent child was driven into ruin all because his ambitious mother wanted to be empress.”"“Master, then you are…”, Jian Yun was a bit confused.""This king has no interest in t..."Cough cough cough······"

After the woman collapsed, the old man coughed incessantly until his breath was evened. He then looked again at the woman lying in a pool of blood, barely clinging to life, with a look of pity on his face.

"You ask a good question, and for the sake of clarity I'll tell you."

The Dragon King's Palace has returned from overseas, they want to rule all the forces above and below in China. The southwest region has a fierce people and is undoubtedly the first in the country in terms of combat strength. Once the underground forces in the southwest are controlled, it will be equivalent to controlling one-third of the underground forces in China. And the underground forces in the southwest are controlled by three Demon Kings. The Dragon King's Palace has studied Chen Changsheng and Wu Shengjie, knowing that they would not submit, so they could only kill them. Then, they would support those who were willing to listen. As for you, young master, the leader looks at your pretty face and wants you to be his woman!

"It's a pity you're such a scoundrel, drugged and still wanting to fight me for my life Then I can only say sorry."

“To be honest with you, that Chen Pingan is not a martial artist at all. He's just a kept man raised by Gao Weiwei. The puppetry in the video was done by Shadow. The reason I told you it was Chen Pingan who killed Chen Changsheng and Wu Shengjie was to make you and Shadow fight each other until both of you are destroyed. Now, someone has gone after Shadow. As long as Shadow dies, no one in the southwest can stop the young master of the Dragon Palace from becoming the King of the Southwest and unifying all the underground forces in the southwest. With the southwest as a base, he will then unify all the underground forces across the empire. At that time, I will be one of the greatest contributors to the return of the Dragon Palace. In the future, I will enjoy endless wealth and glory. That's all I have to say. Now can you rest in peace”

The elder's words left the woman utterly despairing.

"No, the Uncle Zhong I know wouldn't do that. You're lying to me, aren't you"

"You······"

The woman still wanted to say something, but the old man wouldn't give her a chance. He struck her again with his sword, and the woman's eyes widened in horror as her legs kicked out and she died with a look of utter disbelief!

"Bah!"

"I've spent so many years in your Li family, getting nothing in return. All my life I've been treated like a servant, called upon at your whim. I'm done with it! I want to live for myself this once. If you have any blame to cast, blame your own bad luck!"

The old man finished wiping the blood from the blade onto the woman's body, then stood up and left the alley.

Only after the old man had walked away did Chen Pingan come to the woman's face.

Through their recent conversation, Chen Ping knew that the woman before him was Li Qiushui, one of the three major demon kings of the southwest.

She was just used by someone to try and kill herself.

Chen Ping'an crouched before the woman, reaching out to feel her breath and neck.

Although there is no breathing, the pulse is still faintly beating.

"Consider yourself lucky to have met me, your life isn't meant to end!"

Chen Pingan muttered to himself, his index and middle fingers pressed a few times on the woman's body, using the acupuncture technique from the Nine Dragons Medical Tome to seal her meridians and stop the bleeding.

Then, he took out a golden needle from the Dragon Ring and inserted it into the opponent's Shen Ting acupoint to seal their life force from flowing away. Only then did he carry the opponent out of the alley and hailed a taxi.

"Sir, which hotel are you going to"

The driver saw Chen Ping'an carrying a still woman. Because it was night and the streetlights were dim, the driver didn't notice the blood on the woman's body. He thought Chen Ping'an had met a drunk woman on the roadside and was taking her to a hotel for a good time.

"Within twenty minutes to Longquan Villa!" Chen Pingan said in a low voice.

He now lives in a shared apartment with Li Ruonan and Qin Shiyu. Taking an injured woman back would clearly be inappropriate. He remembered the Dragon Spring Villa that Zhao Shekai had given him; it was quiet, unoccupied, and perfect for recuperation!

The driver, upon hearing that they were going to Longquan Villa, seemed a little confused.

The villas in Longquan are the most expensive and luxurious in Longcheng.

The driver looked up and down at Chen Ping'an, noticing the security uniform he was wearing. He thought Chen Ping'an was a security guard from Longquan Villa!ess for her.It also made me even more certain that Jiang Chuyin was just angered by the bank staff and therefore withdrew all her money to intentionally make things difficult for them.But now he only...
