Chapter 33: A Warning to Others

re.Li Kaiyang, who was stationed on the Yutianzhou, also had a solemn expression at this moment.However.He wasn't too nervous inside.The reason is very simple.On the Imperial Sky Vessel, there was mor...“We are only servants of the Zhao family and have nothing to do with them. Why wouldn't you let us leave if Zhao Fang colluded with demons!”

“Why are we not allowed to leave!”

Over a dozen people stared at the government officer drawing his weapon. Fear was etched on their faces, but more prominently displayed was a look of wild frenzy.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

They aren't fools. Zhao Fang colluded with demons, so the Zhao family is doomed.

If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave later.

If you are not from the Zhao family, why should you die with them

Hong Cheng, who was talking to Shen Changqing not far away, saw this scene and his face changed.

“Lord Shen, excuse me!”

He dashed off with a quick word and strode towards that direction.

"Quiet!"

A roar of anger silenced the scene.

Several yamen servants bowed their heads: "Head Hong!"

Hong Cheng nodded slightly, then his gaze fell on the dozen or so people. His expression was cold and stern: "The adults of Zhen Mosī have ordered that no one from the Zhao family compound can leave. I don't care whether you are direct descendants of the Zhao family or not, before the Zhao family makes a judgment, all of you must stay put."

Whoever dares to charge recklessly will only meet a dead end!"

And with that,

Of the dozen or so people, the most robust middle-aged man at the front spoke up: “Hong Capturing Head, let’s be clear. We all know what the crime of colluding with demons is.”

We have nothing to do with the Zhao family. If you want to kill members of the Zhao family, that's your business, but we must leave today."

"Alright, we definitely have to go today!"

"Staying here is just waiting for death, leaving is also dying, not leaving is also dying, it's better to fight with him!"

"Yep, yep—"

While others were shouting loudly, as if they intended to attack directly.

Hong Cheng's face immediately turned grim.

The Lin'an City government office wasn't very powerful, so all the yamen officers added up probably numbered only a dozen or so.

Apart from the guards stationed at the front gate of Zhao's residence, other parts of the courtyard wall also need to be guarded to prevent anyone from scaling the walls and escaping.

These ten or so people.

If we were to launch a full-scale assault, with our current forces, it's not guaranteed that we could hold them back.

Just when Hong became helpless, Shen Changqing walked over.

"Lord Shen!"

"Greetings, Master Shen!"

As for Shen Changqing, how could those yamen servants not be familiar with him They hastily bowed and paid their respects.

Sheng Changqing waved his hand slightly: "You all step back."

Well, yes!

Several government officials were taken aback, but they still stepped aside obediently.

Once the guards had left.

Shen Changqing's waist-length sword unsheathed, the blade pointed at the ground. Pure Yang zhenqi clung to it, and instantly, a surge of sword qi erupted.

> With a swift stroke.

A single slash mark appeared before everyone's eyes.

With everything done, the longsword was returned to its sheath.

"The order to seal off the Zhao residence was given by me. Until the verdict is delivered, no one is allowed to leave the Zhao residence. It doesn't matter if you are a servant of the Zhao family or have nothing to do with them."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Whoever enters the Zhao family's gate, cannot leave now. Anyone who dares to step out of this line by half a step will be killed without mercy!

Shen Changqing's voice was icy.

Those words sent a chill down my spine.

“This sir speaks rather domineeringly, doesn't he” After a moment of silence, the leader’s face darkened.

Shen Changqing remained silent.

The scene suddenly froze.

That simple cut, in the eyes of a dozen people, seemed like the difference between life and death.

For a long time.

Finally, someone couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Don't listen to his nonsense, I don't believe he would actually dare to lay a hand on us. If we don't leave now, we're all going to die!" someone shouted loudly from the crowd.

As soon as the words were spoken.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing took a step forward, his waist knife unsheathed.

Whoosh—

The huge head flew up, with a large amount of blood spraying out, everyone's face changed drastically.

Isn't it agreed that only those who cross the knife wound's range will be killed

People didn't even move, they just casually chatted a few words and were beheaded on the street.

Such a ruthless approach.

Let the rest of them be terrified out of their wits.

Shen Changqing gripped the long knife, blood still dripping from its blade. His gaze swept coldly over them: "Whoever dares to say another word, this is your fate. I've changed my mind, all of you get back to the Zhao family."

Whoever dares to leave the Zhao family's gate, will have to die.

Upon hearing this.

The rest of the people were pale, and under Shen Changqing's gaze, they retreated in embarrassment.

Unlike Hong Cheng and the other constables who only threatened verbally, this man was truly capable of killing.

Although he seemed very imposing just now, when it truly comes to a life-or-death decision, anyone would feel fear.

Stepping back might just lead to death.

If you don't retreat now, you will truly die.

Very soon.

Several people walked away honestly, leaving only a headless body lying on the ground, blood flowing everywhere.

Shen Changqing sheathed his sword and looked at the stunned Hong Cheng: "Head Hunter Hong, clean up the corpses. From now on, if anyone opens Zhao's door and comes out, don't waste any words, just kill them."

If anything goes wrong, I, Shen Changqing, will take full responsibility.

But there is one thing you must remember, if the Zhao family hasn't run away on their own, you are not to barge in without permission. You mustn't break the rules!

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Zhao Fang colluded with demons, this is undeniable.

If the judgement hasn't come down completely, then the Zhao family is still under the protection of the Qin laws.

This is the time.

If anyone trespasses into the Zhao family, they will have violated the laws of the Qin dynasty.

The Qin dynasty's legal code wasn't extensive.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

But each one is a serious crime.

Upon hearing Shen Changqing's words, everyone present, including Hong Cheng, turned solemn.

“Rest assured, Lord Shen. We know what to do!”

Then that's best.

Shen Changqing turned his head and looked at Hong Cheng: "If something happens to the Zhao family, you can come to me at any time. Also, if anyone makes trouble in Lin'an City and the government can't handle it, you can also come to me."

I'm staying at the inn for now, I won't go anywhere else.

“Yes!”

Hong Cheng felt a wave of relief.

Shen Changqing's words were undoubtedly a shot in the arm for him.

Seeing the other party leave, he again bowed: "Sir Shen, walk slowly!"

Once Shen Changqing disappeared, Hong Cheng told the remaining people: “You all heard what Mr. Shen said. Clean up the bodies immediately. And if anyone else from the Zhao family comes out, have them go back at once.”

"If anyone refuses to listen, then kill them!"

When it came to the two words "kill," a murderous glint appeared in Hong Cheng's eyes.

Although he couldn't be as decisive and ruthless as Shen Changqing in killing, he was certainly not a cowardly man.

Especially after Zhao Fang's death, there were some undercurrents in Lin'an City.

Although the signs weren't very obvious, Hong Cheng had lived in Lin'an City for so many years, how could he not notice the changes

At present, it's about the Zhao family's affairs.

There can't be any more accidents now.

Upon hearing this, several people respectfully accepted the order and then began cleaning up the corpses on the ground.
