Chapter 442: Planning and Punishment (1)

In the living room.

Zhou Jing sat at the head of the table, drinking tea and waiting.

Not long after, a noble came to visit. This person was wearing a plain white robe with exquisite embroidery on it, but the filigree was very faint. If one did not look carefully, they would not be able to see it clearly. It really matched the saying that there was luxury in keeping a low profile.

As soon as he entered, he bowed slightly to Zhou Jing.

“Greetings, Perfected Master Windwalker.”

“Same to you, Young Master Sun.”

Zhou Jing nodded as he thought about this person’s background.

This person’s name was Sun Maocai, and he was a member of the Jiangchun Sun family.

The Sun family of Jiangchun was not on the same level as the rich businessman, the Ye family. They were a true aristocratic family. As the saying went, farming and studying were professions passed down for hundreds of years. Even now, they had many people in the family who were high officials in the court. They were considered in the true upper echelons of the Ning Tian Prefecture.

However, it made no difference to Zhou Jing. They were just customers who bought pills.

For such an aristocratic family, their upbringing was naturally not bad. After Sun Maocai took a seat, he did not directly reveal his background. He politely chatted with Zhou Jing and bonded with him.

People visited him every day. Zhou Jing was already used to it. It was considered a daily socialization, so he casually chatted with them.

After talking for a while, Sun Maocai’s expression turned serious before he got down to business.

“I took the liberty to visit you this time because I have a request.”

“Go ahead.” Zhou Jing casually drank his tea and replied indifferently, acting like an expert.

Sun Maocai lowered his voice and said, “I wonder if you’ve heard of Chen Feng from Lu River?”

Zhou Jing did not even look up as he blew on his tea, “I’ve heard a little about him.”

“This person has committed a lot of evil. He has already entered the Jiangchun area and has been roaming around the various county cities at the moment. Many innocent people have already been killed by him. Many families who have been in trouble have begged the Ning Tian Prefecture for help, and our various families pity them and have decided to help. We want to ask various experts to kill him. Perfected One, you’re powerful, so I hope you can help.”

Sun Maocai bowed sincerely.

… You want me to kill Chen Feng?

Zhou Jing glanced at him and said without changing his expression, “Chen Feng is a martial artist and not a cultivator. It’s not good for me to attack him.”

Sun Maocai said solemnly, “That’s not the case. That Chen Feng’s martial arts is already shocking. He’s not like a martial artist. He might be a cultivator. Please subdue the demon on behalf of mankind.”

As he spoke, he bowed again.

Zhou Jing narrowed his eyes and snorted in his heart.

Chen Feng had eliminated evil everywhere and killed many nobles. He did not have any scruples in his actions. It seemed that these nobles were also frightened. When they realized that this person had entered Jiangchun, they were afraid that something would happen if they were delayed, so they secretly planned to kill such a threatening boor.

He was not surprised that the nobles had killing intent and took action so quickly.

As the bourgeoisie that had lasted for many years, these aristocratic families instinctively hated such murderers who destroyed the accumulated family assets of countless generations of others. The aristocratic families had used many years to shape the power structure and stabilize their high and mighty status.

They were separated from the commoners and could continuously obtain and enjoy benefits. Now that there was an unreasonable external force wanting to break the rules they had set, they naturally had to get rid of the threat.

Therefore, after a while, they came to beg him. In their opinion, with Perfected Master Windwalker’s huge reputation, he would definitely be able to deal with this Death Beckoning Yama King.

Unfortunately, these people did not know that he was precisely that main character…

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Zhou Jing’s mind, but he did not show it on his face.

“That makes sense. If this person comes to Ning Tian and shows signs of causing trouble, I don’t mind attacking. However, he hasn’t arrived yet, so I don’t want to waste my time and take the initiative to look for him. I’m sure Young Master Sun knows my style of doing things. Don’t speak about it again.”

“I was presumptuous.”

Sun Maocai’s heart skipped a beat. He repeatedly said that he did not dare, and as expected, he did not mention this request again.

He was only here to try his luck under the orders of his family. The nobles of Ning Tian did not think that Perfected Master Windwalker would agree to do such a thing. What they really relied on was a group of martial arts experts who had been invited to help. They were only here to ask Perfected Master Windwalker so they could have additional insurance.

Although Perfected Master Windwalker said that he would not take the initiative to chase after him, they now at least knew his attitude towards Chen Feng. If the enemy came to Ning Tian, he would suppress the person and protect the noble families in the city.

After receiving such a response, Sun Maocai was relieved.

Zhou Jing nodded and asked casually, “It’s rumored that this Chen Feng is extremely strong and has outstanding martial arts. Did you invite any experts to kill this person?”

Sun Maocai did not suspect anything and said, “They’re all famous martial artists from Jiangchun and the neighboring provinces. For example, the Sect Master of the Wu Mountain Sect, Shen Sanqiu, the Sect Master of the Green Lotus Sect, Yan Hanjun, and the Sect Master of the Three Rivers Sect…”

He mentioned the names of more than ten martial arts experts in a row that had agreed to the invitation of the nobles of Ning Tian.

Because Chen Feng’s group had very few people and was very agile, a large number of soldiers chased after them repeatedly, but they could not do anything to them. On the other hand, the people leading the troops suffered heavy casualties, causing the officers of the various county cities to tremble in fear. Their pursuit became more and more perfunctory.

Therefore, the reason why Ning Tianjue invited a group of martial artists was to use the same method of assassination to deal with Chen Feng.

Many martial arts sects wanted to develop and could not do without the connections of the nobles. Thus, they often wanted to curry favor with the nobles. Even if they did not curry favor, they did not dare to offend the nobles, so they did not mind being the dogs of the Imperial Court for once.

Zhou Jing noted down all the names. When he heard the name of the Wu Mountain Sect, he snorted to himself.

Wu Mountain Sect… Originally, I was in the wrong for looking for trouble with you. I didn’t expect you to accept a job to deal with me. Then I’ll have a clear conscience when I cause trouble in the future.

Zhou Jing pretended to be deep in thought. Suddenly, he took out a bottle of pills and placed it on the table.
