Chapter 4178: Weak Meat Strong Food

w, while he wants to help Jiang Yun, he also doesn't want to implicate the Song family because of himself, so he has drawn a clear boundary between himself and the Song family.Within this boundary, an..."No good!"

As the man blurted out, he had already grabbed his younger sister's hand. His figure suddenly soared into the air and flew in one direction at high speed, without even bothering with Jiang Yun anymore.

Ginger Cloud had originally wanted to step in and stop him, but after some thought, she didn't make a move. Instead, she stood up as well, took a step forward, and followed close behind the two of them, flying out.

Although the man saw Jiang Yun following behind him, he apparently didn't have the extra energy to pay attention to anything else at this moment. He simply exerted his speed to the utmost.

Just a few breaths later, within Jiang Yun's line of sight, he saw a valley with some extremely rudimentary buildings.

At this moment, hundreds of people are gathered in an open space.

Among these hundreds, there were old and young, men and women. They were all poorly dressed, pale, and nervously looked up at the sky.

And above the sky, there stood twelve people.

These twelve men, although their clothes were somewhat tattered, all exuded a palpable aura of killing intent. Their faces contorted in grim smiles as they gazed down at the hundreds of people below.

At that moment, the appearance of the siblings naturally drew the attention of those present. One by one, they turned their gaze towards them.

Although the man's face also showed panic, he still pulled his sister and stood in front of that group of people.

After taking in everyone with a glance, the man turned to face the air where dozens of cultivators hovered. He glared at the bald leader among them and said angrily, "Luo Shiwu, we've already paid our tribute this year, why are you people still here harassing us!"

That man touched his bald head and smiled faintly. "Qi Yuncan, we don't want to come either."

"But there's no way around it, our boss recently reached a critical moment in his cultivation and is about to become the Emperor of Humans. He needs a large amount of offerings, so we can only make another trip."

"Considering that you all are usually obedient at home, we won't make things difficult for you. We only ask for one more offering, and we'll leave immediately."

A man named Qi Yuncan, his face contorted with grief and anger, said: "Don't you know our situation"

"This year's offering was gathered with much effort. Now, where could we possibly find another one"

Luo Shiwu shrugged and said, "That's your business, and it has nothing to do with us."

"Speaking of which, Luo Shiwu's gaze suddenly turned to the woman behind Qi Yuncan, a slight smile playing on his lips. "If there are no offerings, you could always use people to make up for it!"

"As long as you hand over your younger sister, Qi Xian'er, to us, not only will this year's tribute be waived, but I can also make arrangements to exempt your Qi family from next year's tribute as well."

"How do you like it, this deal is a great bargain, right!"

"You fart!" Qi Yuncan hurriedly hid his younger sister behind him, glaring fiercely at the other party and saying, "Tell you, want people, want tribute there is none, if you have the ability, then destroy our Qi family!"

Those hundreds of Qi family members who were shielded behind Qi Yuncan, were also filled with grief and indignation at this moment.

From within, over ten young men walked out. They stood shoulder to shoulder with Qi Yuncan, each clenching their fists tightly and saying: "That's right, if you have the guts, just destroy our Qi family!"

I've had enough of this kind of life. We fight them to the death! What's the worst that could happen

"

Be quiet!

"

Luo Shiwu suddenly let out a roar from his mouth, the sound transforming into a visible wave of air that surged towards Qi Yuncan and the dozen or so Qi family members who had stepped forward.

"Bang bang bang!"

Suddenly, a series of dull impacts sounded.

Besides Qi Yuncan not retreating when the gust of wind passed, more than ten other members of his family were unable to withstand the impact of the wind. One by one, they were knocked to the ground, tumbling and falling.

"Haha!" Lo Shih-wu burst into laughter. "Look at your cowardly faces, you can't even stand the sound of my roar! With this, do you still want to fight us to the death"

What are you going to fight with

"Brother!" Just then, that Qi Xian'er suddenly whispered, "Brother, let me go!"

"No way!" Qi Yuncan suddenly turned his head, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets as he stared at his younger sister. "What are you talking about!"

"Could I possibly offer you as a sacrifice to ensure our safety"

Qixian'er smiled faintly and said, "Big brother, I wasn't going to live long anyway. Before I die, if I can contribute something to the Qi family, at least my death would have some meaning!"

"Don't even say it!" Qi Yuncan waved his hand to cut off his sister's words. "Sister, you're being naive."

"You think that if you sacrifice yourself and walk away willingly, they'll actually let us go"

"No, they will still come looking for us to demand tribute and exploit us. They will keep squeezing us until there is nothing left, then they will kill us."

"Therefore, we can only fight them to the end!"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Qi Yuncan's figure suddenly rose into the air, appearing directly before Luo Shiwu and landing a heavy punch on his face.

Facing Qi Yuncan's surprise attack, Luo Shiwu remained unfazed. He raised his fist as well, colliding with Qi Yuncan's fist.

"Bang!"

In the midst of the crashing sound, Qiyun Chan's body, like a giant stone, was sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground.

It's obvious that his ability is far inferior to the other party's.

Luo Shiwu let out a cold snort and said, "Foolish things, since you want to die, I'll grant your wish."

Destroy the Qi family and take that Qi Xian'er away!

At Luo Shiwu's command, the ten-odd cultivators who followed him immediately responded with a grin and slowly walked towards the hundreds of Qi family members from the air.

Ginger Cloud did not reveal herself, but remained hidden in the shadows, observing from afar.

According to the conversation between Qi Yuncan and Nara Wushi, Ginger Cloud naturally wouldn't have difficulty figuring it out.

Because of the illusions, this Huajiang realm not only became increasingly desolate, but the lives of those who survived also became increasingly difficult.

Even so, within this Hua Jiang realm, a new group emerged. They banded together, relying on their formidable martial power to become the overlords of Hua Jiang. They sought out the surviving beings and extorted tributes from them.

Surrender your tribute, and they will be safe. Refuse to surrender it, and you will walk the path of death.

As for such things, Ginger Cloud had truly seen far too much.

Even then, before he left Mangshan, Jiang Cun had encountered a similar situation. Fengcun came to his door and wanted to take him away.

At that time, no one came to save Ginger Village. It was only when everyone in Ginger Village, including the grandfather, bravely stood up and saved themselves that they barely escaped disaster.

If it were him back then, seeing this before his eyes, he would have acted righteously and helped. But now, he wouldn't.

He had no relation to this Qi family, and in fact, that Qi Yuncan had just wanted to kill him.

Besides, for this Hua Jiang world, I am just an outsider, a passerby.

Even if I saved the Qi family today, killed all of these people, and even took out the big boss behind them, there would inevitably be new forces and a new leader in the future.

Even then, this clan will still face the same situation as now and there will still be a risk of extermination.

Although Ginger Cloud disregards rules and conventions, there is one rule, one convention, that he has to acknowledge and accept.

That's the law of the jungle.

The weak will always be food for the strong.

Therefore, Ginger Cloud glanced lightly at the two parties about to fight, shook her head, and prepared to leave.

But just then, a series of sharp coughs rang out.

Then, from an extremely dilapidated house, emerged an old man.

But seeing this old man, Jiang Yun's brows couldn't help but furrow slightly, temporarily dispelling the thought of leaving.ffer! The highest bidder gets it!""Furthermore, if any of you have something you wish to auction, please bring it out. My Wang family will not inquire about its origins and can handle the auction for...
