Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 1173: The Weak
Gong Wan’er hesitated and then asked, “Are you going to pick up people from the Buddha Sect?”
“Betul.” Tang Xiu nodded.
“I choose to follow you, so I believe you will not harm me,” said Gong Wan’er. “But some people will recognize me if I go with you like this. We can expect a lot of trouble if that happens. ”
Tang Xiu smiled and manipulated the changes to his facial muscles. Soon after, his appearance was different from his previous appearance. Unless those who saw him were his close ones, it was impossible to recognize him. Afterwards, Tang Xiu taught this facial morphing technique to Gong Wan’er.
A few minutes later, the two people left the courtyard with completely changed looks. However, the two wore masks and hats in order not to remind the Kuwako people in the courtyard.
“Where is Tang An?” Tang Xiu asked as he looked at Tang Guang who was approaching him.
“She was afraid that Xue Sha and Hei Xiong would have some accidents, so she came along,” Tang Guang replied.

In a nearby alley, 7 tattooed youths with baseball bats surrounded and beat up a man and a woman, while a red-skinned man in a black leather coat and wearing earrings stood still, while a man in red stood still, looking up at the sky, not realizing that a cigarette was burning between his fingers.
“Don't beat us, I beg you. I will pay back the money, please give me 3 more days. I'll give you cash and interest. Please.” The beaten man desperately hugged the woman, using his body to block the beating of the baseball bat for her.
“Very good.”
The red-haired young man flicked the cigarette butts. When the other seven youths gave way to him, he slowly walked over to the beaten couple. He kicked the woman aside and then spoke with apathy, “Paying debt is just a natural principle, but this is the fourth time you have asked for a three-day extension. Do you think I still have to believe in you or what? ”
The man with the bruised face struggled to stand up. He knelt down in front of the red-haired youth and hurriedly begged. “It just need. I gotta. I've paid a portion of the loan before, but the interest you charge is too high. I ... I can't .. buy that much at once! ”
“That's your business, not mine.” The red-haired young man sneered.
The man knelt on the ground with a struggling expression on his face. After seeing the young man pull out a sharp dagger from his waist, he ended up crying, “Hidari Zujun, please give me three more days and I will make sure to get your money. Me .. I .. I will give you my wife as collateral. He can serve you for three days and I'll have money in three days to give you even if I have to rob and steal. A-what ... do you think? ”
Desperation was evident on the face of the woman who was down. The beating was severe and caused her serious injuries, and her husband's own words made her worse, causing her to spurt blood.
The red-haired youth looked at her and apathetically said, “Given how strong you are, you have three more days, but I will not touch your woman even if I want this celebrity to serve me. But if you don't return my money three days later, I'll call your wife and then sell her to the red light district. He can make money by serving the guests to me. Of course, I can still allow her to continue her filming career. Either way, I get my own way to a profitable business that can make money for me. ”
“Oke okay okay. I'll do as you say. ”
The man stopped crying and desperately nodded a few times.
Tens of meters away from the alley, Tang Xiu and Gong Wan’er quietly stood there. They had seen everything from the moment the couple was beaten to the conclusion of the negotiation between the red-haired young man and the man. Although an experienced man, killing intent was born in Tang Xiu's heart, yet it was not aimed at the red-haired youth, but the man.
He only used his wife to pay his own debt ?! This creature does not deserve to call itself human. He does not deserve to be one and cannot even live in this world.
There was no need to guess further for Tang Xiu as he could tell that this man would never take care of his wife's well-being, whether she was still alive or dead later. He would never return with the money he had three days later.
“What do you think?”
Tang Xiu glanced at Gong Wan’er and nonchalantly probed him.
Looking unperturbed, Gong Wan’er shook his head and said, “I just think that a rather miserable woman has such a bad life and married such a man. The end of the story will surely happen. Of course, those who live in this world must constantly remind themselves that they must adapt to a society where the weak will be easy prey for the strong. It was just a rule, whether in crowded cities or in the wilderness. ”
“….”
Somehow, a hint of regret struck Tang Xiu for asking Gong Waner's question. The answer is like asking an inhumane pig. But then again, he also let out a deep sigh after recalling the living environment he had been through. He now realized that he could not regard this woman as a confidence trust in the future even if she followed and worked for him.
“Come go only.” Tang Xiu paced forward.
Gong Wan’er followed him back and whispered, “You want to help them?”
“Not them, just the woman,” said Tang Xiu faintly.
“This is just your daily occurrence, remember. You can meet poor women literally everywhere. You can't just help everyone. ”
“As in the limited truth of a man, yes?” ask Gong Waner.
Tang Xiu turned around and stepped forward again. “That's an address that's too narrow. I only had good intentions and used them to save the poor souls I met. Gong Wan’er, I don't care about your previous living environment, nor do I care about your feelings right now. But I'll make you remember one thing today. You need a very strong state of mind and heart if you want to reach further in cultivation. But conscience and some virtuous thoughts are the bottom line for those under my leadership. ”
A kind mind?
Tang Xiu's words continued to echo in his heart.
Before this, he had only understood the principle that cultivation was like sailing a ship against a torrent and someone would definitely be left behind if they did not advance. It was all the reason why he spent so much time in cultivation. Even when she met with injustice, she used a set of criteria to address environmental impacts. He had always considered that the world was a place where humans devoured their own kind and thus, he might die at the hands of others in the future if his cultivation was too low.
Tang Xiu then came to the front of this group of street gangsters. Eyes swept over the teary-eyed lady's face that was now currently wiping the bloodstains from her mouth, she then looked at the red-haired youth and lightly said, “Can you let her go because of me?”
The woman looked up. Tears covered her eyes, but she could still see the masked Tang Xiu through faint tears.
The red-haired youth narrowed and took out a cigarette and lit it. He inhaled a deep smoke and exhaled it as he asked with an ugly expression, “Those who prick their noses and meddle in the affairs of others usually end up tragically, Sir. You should know that. You want to stick your nose here, are you sure you can cope with the consequences? ”
“I'm a busy person, but I happened to bump into you, so I'll take it,” Tang Xiu said. “I don't care if the man owes you money or anything else, but it has nothing to do with the woman. I don't care if you take this guy off or kill him. ”
The man was immediately furious after hearing his words and shouted loudly, “Who f ** k you and where did you come from, asshole? Get lost! This is my business and my responsibility! ”
The killing intent in Tang Xiu's heart grew stronger, but he still ignored it. He kept looking at the red-haired young man and said, “The street words say someone is responsible for every complaint and every debt has its own debtor. There is no need to involve a third party in this business. That guy owes you money, but he paid it off with a woman? Don't you think that's too much? Even if you are a gangster and even a member of the underground forces, you should also know the customs of our world. ”
The red-haired youth took more puffs and replied in fluent English as well, “Only from what you said and the fact you made me stand here, I want you to leave. And lastly, let me tell you something: your words would have made me let it go had it been a few years ago. But now, only money matters to me, nothing else. Justjust go. ”
“How much is it?” ask Tang Xiu.
The red-haired youth gave him a shocked look and slowly sized up Tang Xiu from head to toe, asking, “Are you willing to pay it for them, by chance?”
“How much?” ask Tang Xiu again.
“10 million,” replied the young man.
“In Japanese Yen?” Tang Xiu lightly asked.
“You understand.” The young man nodded.
Mocking the suspicious man, Tang Xiu sneered. “Heh, you are a loser once. Only 10 million yen or 100 thousand US dollars, yet you can even sell your wife for it? You really trash — a kind of trash that wastes the Earth's resources. You can hurry up and find a place to do hara-kiri. ”
After saying that, he looked back at the red-haired youth and nonchalantly said, “I will give you 200 thousand if you dare to kill this trash for me.”
“Good!”
A cold light flashed in the young man's eyes. As his voice faded, he flicked the cigarette butt into the man's face and his sharp dagger flashed and pierced the man's chest. Everything was done very quickly and he instantly took out a dagger from the man's heart and directly cut his neck.
The murder was carried out in a neat and clean manner.
Tang Xiu narrowed his eyes and even released his spiritual senses. Through deep observation, he realized how indifferent the young man was. There was not even the slightest bit of emotional fluctuation coming from him when he committed such a cruel murder.
A good seed for a killer!
Tang Xiu exclaimed inwardly and asked, “Do you have a Master or an employer?”
An expert?
The red-haired youth was shaken inwardly. As if realizing something, he turned to look at the other seven young men and said, “Bring the corpse and pay attention not to be found by anyone! Quickly throw it overboard and release me from trouble later. ”
“Understanding!”
The seven young men clearly had the same descendants. They quickly carried the corpse and entered the van in the alley as they quickly left.
