CHAPTER 54: CHAPTER 54: RANSACKING WEALTH!

Jiang Shi walked over and picked up the thick Wolf Fang Club from the ground again, heading towards the two middle-aged men in white robes.

But soon his brow furrowed, showing surprise and suspicion, as he focused intently on the two white-robed middle-aged men in front of him.

To be precise, he was staring at the wounds on their chests.

Originally, each had been hit by seven or eight stones, but at this moment, the wounds on their chests were slowly healing. It seemed as though a mysterious force was emanating, automatically expelling the stones, causing the injuries to close visibly towards the center.

"Are you Demon Beasts?"

Jiang Shi looked shocked.

The faces of the two middle-aged men were both deathly pale, their breath chaotic, panting heavily as if healing the injuries had consumed a great deal of their energy. Their eyes were tightly fixed on Jiang Shi.

"Young man, let’s talk it out, give us a chance. We are from the Zhang Clan, spare our lives, and we can offer you some compensation. It’s better to resolve than to create conflict."

The middle-aged man on the left panted.

"That’s right, give us a chance. We messed up this time."

The other middle-aged man quickly spoke up.

Jiang Shi noticed their chest wounds were healing faster.

A bizarre feeling surged into his heart.

Could this be Demon Beasts from a Noble Family?

"Better to resolve than to create conflict..."

Jiang Shi repeated.

"Yes, there’s no need for us to be enemies. Let’s pretend today never happened."

The middle-aged man on the left spoke again.

Jiang Shi nodded slowly, and said, "Makes a bit of sense!"

The two middle-aged men rejoiced inwardly.

However, in the next moment!

Thud!

Jiang Shi smashed down with the club, wielding great power, mercilessly landing on the head of the middle-aged man on the left, directly smashing his entire head into his abdominal cavity.

But unexpectedly, the middle-aged man did not immediately die. His hands were still twitching painfully, his palms trying to rise, reaching towards his neck as if attempting to pull his head out of his abdomen.

The face of the other middle-aged man turned pale, completely shocked that Jiang Shi would suddenly make a move.

Without thinking, he hurried to escape.

But Jiang Shi had already rushed out quickly and swung the club once more.

Bang!

Thud!

The second middle-aged man spewed blood wildly, his entire back shattered, his shoulder blade collapsing inward, and his body was violently flung out.

But, like the previous middle-aged man, he did not immediately die, instead twitching painfully in the distance, his back injury slowly healing again.

"Demon Beasts, they must be Demon Beasts!"

Jiang Shi’s eyes showed a solemn expression, staring intently at their bodies.

How could a normal person be like this?

Even with high power, suffering such wounds should lead to immediate disastrous death, right?

"Oh dear!"

"Run quickly!"

At this moment, the entire square was in chaos.

No one dared to stay and watch the commotion, all quickly scaling the walls to flee, fearing that Jiang Shi might get carried away with killing and do them in as well.

Jiang Shi glanced at the figure whose head he had smashed into the abdomen one more time, seeing that his body was still twitching painfully, hands grasping a tuft of hair desperately trying to pull it out, but after a while, the movements ceased completely.

Jiang Shi did not feel assured, so he stepped forward and stared at the headless body, wielding the Wolf Fang Club to smash down once more.

Bang!

This time it landed directly on the opponent’s chest, flattening and collapsing it, with crimson blood quickly flowing out from the neck, dyeing the ground red.

Even so, the body remained still.

Jiang Shi relaxed and smiled.

Seems like it’s completely dead.

Even if they’re Demon Beasts, having the head smashed into the abdomen surely means they can’t survive, right?

Moreover, he dealt an additional blow.

He stepped forward towards the location of the second middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man, his mouth full of blood, struggled painfully on the ground, showing fear, and pleaded for mercy, "Spare me, I am from the Zhang Clan, spare my life..."

"Sorry, even if I spare you, your family may not spare me!"

Jiang Shi replied.

Bang!

Another blow landed, and this middle-aged man’s body was flung out once more, striking hard in the distance, remaining motionless, his head completely deformed.

Jiang Shi quickly walked up and once again dealt two more blows, finally stopping only after confirming the opponent was thoroughly and miserably dead.

"Seems like this family isn’t anything to be afraid of. Apart from their Life Energy being greatly different from ordinary people, everything else seems roughly the same, and they haven’t mastered any Divine Techniques or similar."

Jiang Shi murmured to himself.

He almost got scared by them just now.

No, compared to normal people, there is still something unusual.

That is their ice-cold palm wind, carrying extremely strong cold energy that can invade the human body.

This counts as a little peculiarity.

To prevent these two from rising after death, Jiang Shi piled their bodies together, then took a large amount of wood from one side, grabbed a torch, and threw it directly on them.

"Burn you all up, I don’t believe you can survive this."

Jiang Shi thought to himself.

Watching as fierce flames burned out from the two corpses, growing more intense and gradually emitting a rich meaty aroma, with skin soon charred, the bodies remaining immobile, Jiang Shi then proceeded to step out and head towards the massive Luoxia Sword Sect.

At present, the entire Luoxia Sword Sect was completely deserted.

All Jianghu individuals had fled cleanly.

The disciples originally belonging to the Luoxia Sword Sect were also gone.

All rooms and halls had been turned upside down, looking like they had been looted.

Clearly, presumably when he had just made his move, the fleeing disciples had taken advantage of the situation to loot.

"Damn, this wave has cost heavily, why do I make a move and you reap all the benefits?"

Jiang Shi murmured, starting to search each hall and each room.

Whether it was beds, cabinets, or walls that might have hidden compartments, without exception, he smashed them with a club, breaking them open on the spot.

He was simply a demolishing beast now, and nothing could stop him as he passed by.

After searching for a long time, Jiang Shi finally found a few secret manuals.

Rolling Stone Fist!

Heaven-Reaching Palm!

The names were chosen boldly, but if left behind by those disciples, they probably weren’t anything decent.

Besides, under a bed, he found silver notes worth three thousand taels and, in a closed room, two roots of Blood Ginseng sealed in a box.

Each root was as thick as a baby’s forearm, evidently quite old, hidden very well.

This made Jiang Shi very happy.

"I wonder if this Blood Ginseng has the effect of enhancing power?"

He thought to himself, deciding to nibble one to give it a try.

With that thought, he opened his mouth and bit down hard, suddenly a rich medicinal taste spread out, invading all directions of his taste buds, bitter, astringent, and unpleasant, almost making him spit it out.

Remembering that this Blood Ginseng was worth a fortune, he forced himself to endure the bitterness and swallowed it.

"Having eaten it, it’s certainly unsellable now, in that case, might as well eat the whole root."

He endured the bitterness and stuffed the remaining root directly into his mouth, swallowing it completely in a few bites.

Jiang Shi packed his belongings, carried the Wolf Fang Club, and strode outside.

Passing the square, he glanced again at the two corpses being fiercely burned, pondering inwardly.

This middle-aged man’s origins were peculiar, being killed by him like this most likely brought trouble...

"Anyway, what’s done is done, regretting won’t help now, the only choice is to rapidly enhance my strength."

He strode through the gates, mounted a horse, and galloped towards the distance.

This time he traded for over fifty Entering Strength Pills, which should let his realm improve further.
