Crazed Servant Who Went Berserk Pays with His Life
Loong Er’s face had visibly paled. Picking up the rabbit skin from off the ground, he bit his fingertip, drew blood, and started writing. After that, a 150,000 taels of silver promissory note was freshly drawn up.
Ning Qi grabbed the contract and looked it over, then stuffed it back into his pocket now greatly satisfied.
“You guys can go now. I will head next to the Loong family to ask for money. You head back first and ask your master to prepare the cash.”
Ning Qi said all this with a smile on his face.
“You are such a scoundrel!” the little girl suddenly scolded out loud.
Ning Qi proceeded to glare daggers at the little girl. “So what if uncle is a bad guy? Be careful, or else uncle will catch you and raise you as my wife! You wouldn’t want that would you?”
The little girl was so frightened by his words that she outwardly trembled from head to toe and quickly hid behind Loong Er.
“Young Master Ning, please forgive my insensitivity. We’ll head back to the Loong family now. The money will be prepared for you and Young Master Ning can come and get it at any time.” Loong Er gave a slight smile, then pulled the little girl and the little boy and left without saying anything further.
They were currently at the outer region of the Heavenly Wind Forest. Loong Er was also a three-star Dou Shi, which was more than enough to protect the two little ones from danger.
After watching their backs fade further and further away, Ning Qi said in a low voice, “After I take my reward of 150,000 taels of silver, I can buy myself a courtyard. I will no longer need to face the foolish expression on those people from the Marquis Estate. However, it is imminent that I retrieve my mother’s ashes first.”
With this in mind, Ning Qi made his way towards the exit of Heavenly Wind Forest.
***
Qintang Empire, Capital City.
Champion Marquis Mansion.
Ning Qi stood before the familiar door, a completely different person. The last time he was here, he had fled from these very doors in panic. Currently, he had achieved a four-star Dou Shi status and on top of that, possessed a very unique skill. He was no longer just a bastard of the Champion Marquis Mansion people can look down on.
Ning Qi took a step forward and raised a hand to knock on the door.
Ning Qi did not have to wait long when the door slowly opened to reveal a middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. He peered out from where he stood and when he saw that it was Ning Qi, his face immediately turned cold. Swiveling his head back, he ordered something. Then he opened the door wider and stood in front of Ning Qi in full stature. He said, “Bastard, you dare to come back! What did you do? Come, tell me the truth!”
Ning Qi only continued to look at him with a cold expression on his face. “Lee Si, you are merely a Third Grade Deacon of Hou Mansion. Your status is just of that of a lowly servant. Yet I am your Young Lord. What kind of attitude is this to receive me in such a way? Do you not believe that I will break your legs?”
Lee Si could not help but burst out laughing. “How dare such a trash like you who’s not even a Fighter, dare threaten to break my legs? No matter what you say, I, Lee Si, am still a three-star Dou Zhe. And what are you, but a mere bastard? It’s no wonder that your mother died after giving birth to you!”
Like a blistering welt, Lee Si’s insulting words entered Ning Qi’s ears. The people passing by were drawn to the commotion, so they stopped what they were doing to watch the ensuing drama. Lee Si felt buoyed by the attention, continuing to scold even more cheerfully.
“Enough with your scolding! You’ve offended your superior and insulted the mistress with your words. In our Qintang Empire, killing you wouldn’t be breaking the law.”
Ning Qi said all this coldly.
“What of it? You still want to fight me?”
A faint red combat power could be seen emerging from Lee Si’s body. Taking a step forward, he tried grabbing ahold of Ning Qi’s neck with his outstretched hands.
“That person fighting Lee Si is Champion Marquis’ 13th son. Although he was born in the Marquis’ manor, he doesn’t even compare to that of a lowly servant. Even a three-star Dou Zhe would not hesitate to attack him.”
“This bastard didn’t ask to come into this world. It’s hard enough dealing with an ordinary family. The dignified Champion Marquis gave birth to a son with a low-born servant. If it wasn’t for his grandfather, this bastard would have drowned right after being born. Maybe it would’ve been best if he had ended up with the same fate as his mother.”
“Shh, lower your voice. After all, he’s right there in front of the entrance of the manor.”
“Why are you afraid?!”
A few Fighters exchanged words in a low voice not far away from the manor.
At this very instant, Lee Si’s hand was reaching for Ning Qi’s neck. A touch of killer intent flashed momentarily in Ning Qi’s eyes. Silver combat power was suddenly unleashed from his body! He tossed a powerful punch at Lee Si’s stomach.
“What?!”
Lee Si’s eyes popped from out of their socket and there were evident traces of blood in them. His back was slumped forward like that of a cooked prawn. Bloody foam was pouring out from the corner of his mouth. Then, he collapsed to the ground, folding under from his heavy injuries. He stared up at the face looking down at him in utter disbelief.
How could this even be possible?!
Lee Si was dumbfounded. How could a bastard like him, who came from trash, possess such inhuman-like strength? This must be… A different kind of combat power?
“Anyone who insults me dies.”
Ning Qi stared down at him coldly while raising a leg about to stomp him to death.
“Spare me my life! I am a Third Grade Deacon, a trusted aide of the Seventh Master. If you decide to do away with me today, the Seventh Master will never let you get away with this!”
On Lee Si's face was a look of fear.
He could feel the thick killer intent emitting off of Ning Qi’s body. It appeared Ning Qi had the full intention of killing him, so he could only beg for his life, throwing out his backer as some sort of excuse, hoping that Ning Qi would have the instincts to not do him harm.
After that, he would slowly look into what was going on with this bastard. How was he able to refine a xenogeneic battle energy after a long absence?
“Do you mean Ning Hongdou? He won’t be able to protect you.”
As Ning Qi smiled, a layer of silver glow lit up his feet. He suddenly stomped on Lee Si’s head and Lee Si let out a terrified shriek. With a squishing sound, his head was smashed like a rotten piece of fruit. Ning Qi’s foot entirely crushed it, causing all sorts of brain matter and blood to come flying everywhere. Everyone present bore witness to this horrendous scene. They could only stand there in shock. Was this really the legendary trash they had looked down on before? How was he even capable of instantly killing a three-star Dou Zhe? Furthermore, his combat power was silver!
“Mutated Dou Qi!” someone cried out right then.
“Congratulations, host, you have killed a three-star Dou Zhe. Two hundred experience points are now yours. Because your level is higher than your opponent’s, your experience points have been reduced by half. You now have 100 experience points.”
At this rate, he would need 80,000 experience points to get to a five-star Fighter. These 100 experience points were next to nothing.
“Ding! Host’s aggro with Ning Hongdou is at max level. You are given a timeline of up to two months to kill him. If the mission fails, 1000 Dragon Slaying Coins will be deducted from your system. Completion of the assignment will reward you 200 Dragon Slaying Coins.”
Ning Qi saw a group of people staring hatefully at him not far away. The leader happened to be Ning Loong’s father, Lee Si’s master. He was the Seventh Master of Champion Marquis Mansion, a one-star Great Battle Master Ning Hongdou!
After seeing Ning Qi kill Lee Si with his very own eyes, Ning Hongdou was certain Ning Qi was his son’s, Ning Loong’s, murderer. His eyes staring at Ning Qi held killer intent.
“You have the audacity to kill the Deacon in my mansion? Tell me right at this instant, were you the one who killed Ning Loong?”
Ning Hongdou said this coldly.
Ning Qi’s expression was filled with proper shock upon hearing the news. He said, “What do you mean? Ning Loong is really dead? Oh. It doesn’t matter since he will die sooner or later. But who killed him? I have to thank the guilty party properly. I don’t want to waste my time, but Seventh Uncle… Don’t frame me. Killing your own kind is a serious crime to accuse. I just killed Lee Si because I couldn’t bear to see him offend his superiors. For this reason alone, shouldn’t he be killed? Do you really want to punish me with so many outsiders watching? Seventh Uncle, don’t tell me you are taking advantage of this public example to help yourself.”
Ning Qi glanced over at the group of people who were watching the spectacle at the entrance of the manor. He especially took note of the Fighter who had been talking loudly about his mother for the majority of the time. Recognizing that Ning Qi was watching him struck fear in the Fighter’s heart. He hurried to turn around and leave, but his sudden departure had not gone unnoticed by Ning Qi.
“Okay then! Very good!”
Ning Hongdou continued to stare coldly at Ning Qi. He clenched and unclenched his fists in turn, flexing all ten of his fingers, and said through tightly gritted teeth, “If that’s the case, then please follow me to see Great Grandfather. Loong’er’s death will not be in vain. Once I find the person responsible for his death, I, Ning Hongdou, will not rest until I have made him pay with his very own life!”
