Chapter 58: Chapter 57: Bloody Battle!

Hearing Lu Qing’s firm words, Qin Tian’s heart inexplicably stirred.

Was this the lingering farewell of lovers facing death?

"Don’t worry, Sister Qing, I won’t let you die for love," Qin Tian said with a comforting smile as he looked at her.

"You, you’re still in the mood to joke at a time like this?"

Hearing Qin Tian’s joke, Lu Qing was a bit speechless, caught between laughing and crying.

But then she thought, hadn’t Qin Tian always acted with such unaffected ease in the face of danger before? And each time, it seemed to end perfectly in the end.

What about this time?

Even though the danger this time was far greater than all the previous times combined, seeing Qin Tian’s nonchalant expression somehow settled her down.

She believed in Qin Tian, believed in him wholeheartedly.

"Your first choice is a dead end," Qin Tian said with a light smile.

Qiao Zhicheng sneered, "You have a second choice."

Before Qin Tian could ask, he said, "Kneel down immediately and accept the punishment of my family’s rules. You’re a dead man, but I, Qiao Zhicheng, swear on my name that I will not harm a hair on your woman’s head and let her leave."

"This choice seems not too bad," Qin Tian remarked.

Hearing the second condition offered by Qiao Zhicheng, Qin Tian nodded, "It’s quite in line with the morality of Jiang Hu."

"Qin Tian..."

Lu Qing tugged at Qin Tian’s hand, "I don’t want you to die..."

Qin Tian turned around to find Lu Qing’s eyes somewhat wet, had she cried?

"They all say I’m your woman, where’s a case where the man dies and the woman lives on alone? If we’re to die, we die together."

She pursed her lips, a tear trickling down from the corner of her eye.

"Silly sister, who said I’m going to die?"

Qin Tian smiled gently, "I still have to help you fulfill your wish, and I still have to marry you. How can I die without fulfilling these desires?"

Hearing Qin Tian talk about helping her to fulfill her wishes, Lu Qing’s tears turned into laughter.

For some reason, in such a perilous environment, she could still smile, and it was a smile that came from the heart, which she herself found a bit odd.

"Qin Tian, you won’t choose the first path, will you?"

A dangerous anger instantly began to spread!

Qin Tian’s expression was solemn as he looked at Qiao Zhicheng and said, word by word, "Qiao Zhicheng, listen well, the path I, Qin Tian, take is never dictated by others. I walk wherever I want, and no one can stop me!"

"What an arrogant young man! Since that’s the case, you both have to die tonight. Do it."

Qiao Zhicheng’s expression was calm as he lit a cigar and stood back to watch the show.

To him, killing seemed to be a simple and easy task.

"Sister Qing, stay behind me!"

Seeing the likes of Wild Boar not approaching, Qin Tian knew that he couldn’t drag this on any longer; it was time for fists to do the talking!

Alright then, let’s fight!

The dagger "Dragon Blood" had somehow appeared in Qin Tian’s hand, a wholly blood-red dagger radiating a bloody light!

This was also his blood brother who had once traversed the Mercenary World with him—Dragon Blood!

Clang!

Whoosh!

When people from all around closed in, Qin Tian threw out his dagger, tracing a circular arc before fiercely circling back.

Where the arc passed, a bloody radiance flashed, followed by a chorus of screams. The thugs who rushed up first retreated in disarray.

The faces, arms, and foreheads of that crowd, wherever Dragon Blood touched, all split open, blood seeping out.

The scene was shockingly gruesome!

The thugs didn’t even understand how they had been injured.

Qiao Zhicheng, witnessing this, had a flash of surprise in his eyes, but quickly regained his composure.

"Continue the attack!" he commanded ruthlessly.

Injured and uninjured thugs alike surrounded them again.

In this back-to-back situation, Qin Tian, protecting Lu Qing, was finding it hard to cope.

Kicking away someone directly in front, Qin Tian suddenly heard Lu Qing’s cry of alarm and saw someone with a cleaver aiming at Lu Qing; he quickly pulled her back.

But as he turned, someone from behind had already slashed at his back—

Slash!

His clothes torn, Qin Tian felt a burning pain as a seven- to eight-centimeter-long wound opened on his back!

"Qin Tian, you, you’re injured!" Lu Qing cried out, with blood even splashing onto her face.

She cried.

If it weren’t for protecting her just now, Qin Tian wouldn’t have taken that cut.

"Stay behind me and don’t shout," he said sternly.

With a resolute countenance, Qin Tian’s dagger let out a cry like the roar of a dragon. The two thugs in front, upon touching Dragon Blood, had their arms sliced open to bloody wounds, screaming as they fell to the ground.

Thump, thump!

Qin Tian kicked away two people, pulling Lu Qing as they retreated while fighting.

Attacked from the front and rear, he felt it was too difficult to hold on!

"Kid, you’re not getting away!"

At that moment, Qiao Zhicheng actually joined the fray, coming at Qin Tian with bare hands.

Qin Tian flipped Dragon Blood and stabbed towards Qiao Zhicheng in a backhand thrust.

This is bad!

Suddenly, he saw Qiao Zhicheng’s figure come to an abrupt halt and then, the man quickly changed direction and dived towards Lu Qing!

Luring the tiger away from the mountain!

Qiao Zhicheng’s real target was Lu Qing!

"You are despicable!"

Qin Tian roared, not caring about anything else, and hurled himself sideways.

Thump!

Qiao Zhicheng’s punch, which he thought would solidly hit Lu Qing’s shoulder, didn’t anticipate that Qin Tian would block it with his body!

"Beauty is a disaster, heh heh, Qin Tian, I didn’t expect you to be such a sentimental fool!"

As Qiao Zhicheng landed, he let out a sinister laugh.

"Ugh!"

Qin Tian was struck in the chest and immediately bruised. Qiao Zhicheng’s strength was not weak; he stumbled backward two steps, almost unable to steady himself.

"Woo woo..."

Lu Qing cried. Just now, Qin Tian had used his body to block for her. Did he have no regard for his own life? Why would he do this?

"Qin Tian, do you have a death wish..."

Feeling helpless, Lu Qing sobbed softly...

"Attacking a woman, Qiao Zhicheng, you’re hardly a man!"

After blocking the thugs rushing from both sides, Qin Tian looked coldly at Qiao Zhicheng, who stood behind.

"This woman, your wife? Hmph, you’re all going to die anyway!" Qiao Zhicheng sneered and charged again.

Clang clang clang!

Dragon Blood blocked the attacks around him, and Qin Tian moved swiftly in front of Lu Qing. Seeing Qiao Zhicheng’s fist attacking Lu Qing fiercely, he didn’t think twice and countered with a punch directly!

Bang!

Thump thump thump!

With one punch, Qiao Zhicheng was forced back several steps!

The relaxed expression on his face disappeared in an instant!

"How is this possible?"

Clear about his own strength, Qiao Zhicheng knew that in Zhonghai City, he might not be an invincible fighter but his skills were at least top ten material.

But with just now’s punch, he clearly fell at a disadvantage, pushed back three steps by Qin Tian and nearly lost his balance!

"This kid..." he gritted his teeth, "is a bit strange!"

Whiz!

Whiz!

However, although Qin Tian had repelled Qiao Zhicheng with one punch, during this critical moment, he had completely exposed his back, and two gangsters’ cleavers gashed his back and shoulder!

Blood flowed freely!

"Qin Tian!" Lu Qing exclaimed in a hoarse voice.

"Sister Qing, get out of the way!"

From the side, another sinister thug swung at Lu Qing with his cleaver. Qin Tian leapt over, kicking the man away, but not before the cleaver landed on Qin Tian’s thigh...

"Ugh!"

The back and thigh, four wounds in total.

Added to the exhausting battle he had just fought, Qin Tian felt immensely drained, and continuing like this was extremely perilous!

"Why hasn’t Wild Boar come yet?" He bit his teeth, scanning the surroundings, but still saw no sign of anyone coming to the rescue.

"He’s out of strength. Kill him and throw him into the sea as a sacrifice to Brother Six!" Qiao Zhicheng lit a cigar, expressionless.

"Sister Qing, get out of the way!"

As the gangsters closed in again, Qin Tian quickly pulled Lu Qing back, dodged a slash, then immediately sidestepped and kicked two men off their feet.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, a scream from Lu Qing behind him!

Damn!

Qin Tian had no time to think, tossing his body across!

Splurch!

The thug in front stabbed Qin Tian in the ribcage!

And Qin Tian’s Dragon Blood, likewise, slashed the man’s throat!

"Qin, Qin Tian..."

Seeing the blood flowing from Qin Tian’s ribcage, Lu Qing was struck dumb, feeling powerless, her mind thundering as if the end of the world had arrived.

"Over there!"

From afar, suddenly the headlights of cars flashed, and four vans sped towards them, accompanied by the roaring voice of Wild Boar.

"Boss, people are here!" a gangster shouted.

Qiao Zhicheng frowned, "Never mind them, kill Qin Tian first!"

Danger approached once again!

In Qin Tian’s eyes, a fiery red glow burst forth, and he suddenly picked up a cleaver from the ground and stood up!

"Come, kill me! Kill me!"

He roared, his voice echoing through the forest!

The gangsters were startled, but only hesitated for two seconds as four of them rushed forward!

One slash per person!

Qin Tian, standing upright, took down those four men to the ground in an instant!

He was furious!

"Who else wants to kill me? Come!"

Qin Tian roared, his body eminating a cold aura, and wrathful killing intent!

"Surround them, surround them!"

"Qin Tian, you’re lucky. This isn’t over yet."

After extinguishing his cigar, Qiao Zhicheng took one last look at the wounded Qin Tian, "Let’s go."

"Qiao Zhicheng!"

Qin Tian suddenly howled, causing Qiao Zhicheng in the car to startle and roll down the window to look at Qin Tian.

Clenching his teeth, Qin Tian said each word deliberately,

"For today’s incident, I will make you pay back tenfold!"

In his eyes blazed a fire-like rage!

Qiao Zhicheng frowned but said nothing.

Soon after, the cars disappeared into the night from another direction in the woods.

"Brother Wild Boar, shall we chase them?" Cui Longcai caught up and asked Wild Boar.

Wild Boar shook his head: "The boss’s injuries are serious, let’s not chase. Even if we caught up, we... might not be able to win."

"Boss!"

As soon as Wild Boar finished speaking, Qin Tian, standing in the forest, suddenly lost consciousness and fell to the ground!
