All Heavenly destiny reduced to ashes
Chapter 74 - 74 74 I Am an Accountant

74: Chapter 74 I Am an Accountant 74: Chapter 74 I Am an Accountant Thud!

A dull sound of bone breaking echoed.

With just this punch, An Jing directly shattered the sturdy plastic face armor, twisting half of his face out of shape.

Four or five teeth, along with blood, sprayed out, and the whole person spun around like a top before collapsing to the ground with a smack.

“Old Knife?!”

Seeing An Jing knock down Old Knife with a single punch, the gang members were stunned momentarily.

From the beginning, they had noticed An Jing, the young man seated at the same table as Huo Qing, but even when An Jing disarmed Old Knife, they didn’t take him too seriously.

After all, he was just a teenager.

Skillful technique didn’t mean much.

Could he really be more powerful than them, the battle-hardened cultivators who had just survived a bloody battle?

Now, the answer was clear: indeed, he was powerful.

However, those who snapped back to reality immediately entered into battle mode, silently surrounding him.

Big Spear and his guard squad totaled six people.

Just now, one had been punched down by An Jing, so now five of them approached in a formation of two, one, two, with Big Spear himself drawing a stick from his waist.

With a flick, it extended into a long spear, his movements extremely smooth.

Such a response speed could not be described as anything but sharpness, and Big Spear himself was brimming with Essence Qi.

He should be a cultivator without a Spirit Root, able to cultivate only to the point where Essence Qi surged.

However, years of refinement had honed his Essence Qi to an exceedingly concentrated state.

But An Jing was faster and more refined than them.

The moment Big Spear and the others made a move, An Jing had already rehearsed the entire sequence in his mind—whatever the reason, they would definitely kill Huo Qing and, being someone who sat at the same table as Huo Qing, he would surely be targeted by them.

The goal would either be to humiliate or to silence him forever.

An Jing absolutely could not accept seeing Huo Qing, whom he’d just saved and regarded as a friend, killed for no clear reason.

Nor could he accept his life and death being manipulated by those damned scoundrels.

So he simply skipped all the processes and took the initiative to make a move, aiming to blow up these stupid motherfucking heads!

Thud!

As the enemies were forming their battle formation, An Jing exerted force with his foot, stepping forward to face Big Spear, and delivered a straight right punch to the chest.

Piercing Armor True Strength erupted, bringing a vicious wind straight to Big Spear’s eyes.

Big Spear had just gripped his spear, but now he had to abandon it and raise his arms to block.

Thud!

A dull sound of a body impact resounded, and Big Spear’s facial muscles twitched.

He felt a force that could pierce armor explode forth, nearly breaking apart his arm position.

Had his opponent’s cultivation not been slightly inferior to his own, that punch would have knocked him to the ground!

Such martial skills, such exerting force, can it really be from someone in their teens?!

But An Jing’s martial skills were stronger than he imagined.

The instant his fist was caught, he continued to move closer, his right arm naturally pressing forward to become an elbow strike.

With two consecutive exertions of force, he brutally disrupted Big Spear’s defense.

—This is bad!

The moment his arms were shaken open, Big Spear knew something was wrong.

He prepared to lean back and use a front kick to force An Jing to retreat, but before he could act, he felt a shake at his jaw, and his face sharply tilted to the right.

An Jing’s left stabbing fist had struck his chin.

A severe concussion instantly destroyed his consciousness.

Having smoothly dealt with the strongest enemy, An Jing stepped forward, standing on the head of the already unconscious Big Spear kneeling on the ground, ready to use his head as a pivot to leap up and avoid any possible gunfire.

In fact, he had several other options.

For example, if the guards were concerned about Big Spear’s life and dared not shoot, he would kick Big Spear’s body toward the fat guy on the right, using the other man’s body as a shield to deal with the third opponent, and then draw a gun to take down the fourth.

But as it happened, the guard squad paused sharply after seeing their leader dealt with, and two instinctively reached for their firearms at their waists, only to forcefully stop themselves.

—Guns are forbidden in this place?

An Jing thought that even with a Big Spear as his first move instead of drawing a Firearm, the situation suddenly became clear to him.

Without any hesitation, he accelerated his steps and charged toward the others.

“I surrender!”

It was at this moment that the tall, skinny man on the left raised his hand and simply knelt on the ground: “Boss, we didn’t recognize Mount Tai before us, please just let us off as a fart!”

Immediately, the other three also knelt quickly and adeptly, with such speed and skill that it even surpassed their leader’s drawing of his weapon: “Esteemed sir, we have knelt down, please have a big heart and spare our lives, sir!”

Clearly, under the circumstances where they couldn’t use firearms and even the strongest with the Big Spear had been subdued with a single move, the four men realized that they had kicked an iron plate and it was still timely to surrender now.

But An Jing wouldn’t believe the others’ surrender, what a joke, the old ‘chat-and-fight’ tactic, huh?

He landed a punch on each person in quick succession, knocking out the four who had stopped resisting.

After knocking them all out, he then reacted: “Did they actually surrender?

And…”

——The likelihood was that killing wasn’t permitted within the town, otherwise, there was no reason for them to surrender so quickly and cleanly.

And the reason they dared to assault, or rather ‘subdue’ Huo Qing…

could it be due to the ‘incident’ they mentioned?

But it didn’t matter, he had been cautious and didn’t kill them straight away.

If the Day Tiger Gang’s guards had known that An Jing didn’t understand the rules at all, they would probably be sweating bullets by now: if they had known this fellow was so powerful yet unaware of the rules, they would have cowered much sooner.

An Jing’s fight with the members of the Day Tiger Gang did not last long; it was over in a few moves.

However, the many ordinary people who saw the fight starting had already run far and hidden, and the crowd around the soup cake stall suddenly dwindled to nothing.

The proficiency of their escape even surpassed the gang members’ kneeling pleas by a notch.

Meanwhile, Huo Qing, who had just drawn a Meat-cutting Knife from Master Liu’s counter, preparing to join An Jing in the fight, was also stunned.

“Is that?!”

He couldn’t help exclaiming: “Is it over already?!”

Indeed, it was over.

An Jing picked up the extendable spear he had dropped, shook it to contract, and turned it into a short stick to strap to his side.

The materal of this extendable spear was excellent, flexible yet robust, finely made, and containing sharp and penetrating Spiritual Power; it must be a good Magic Artifact.

Even if used as a stick, it was handy.

“Who are these guys anyway?

They seem pretty wealthy.”

He gathered quite a few elixirs as spoils from their bodies, looked up at Huo Qing with an intense gaze, as if looking at a lucky cat: “Huo Qing, what did you do, why are these people so determined to kill you?”

Hearing this question, Huo Qing opened his mouth, seeming to want to say something, to explain something.

But in the end, he felt there was nothing to say, so he helplessly stated a fact.

“I’m an accountant.”
