water surface.

As Fang Yanping fell, he struck downwards with his palm, using the force to rise. He heard someone calling "Master," but it turned out to be a "peace basket" being thrown at him.

This is a life-saving device on the boat, made of bamboo tubes, which won't sink if it falls into the water.

With a light touch of his toes, Fang Yanping stood on the basket, took a breath, coughed twice, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Qian Chengxun was about to give chase when he heard a whoosh of wind behind him. It was Ren Qingshan slashing down with his sword!

This strike was incredibly fast, its blade flashing coldly, as chilling as a prison.

Even more powerful energy roared forth, unleashing a blade of light!

Qian Chengxun felt a chill run down his spine. He hadn't expected Ren Qingshan's combat prowess to be so astonishing. He slipped and fell, collapsing the deck and avoiding the fatal blow.

"bow!"

Ren Qingshan tossed his bow and arrows to Fang Yanping, then grabbed his knife and charged into the hold.

The hull has a compartmentalized design, so even if one compartment floods, there are other sealed compartments. However, even so, the ship won't last long.

Seeing that Ren Qingshan's sword was sharp, Qian Chengxun picked up the huge stone lock used as ballast and swung it down, his movements precise and disciplined, treating the meteorite stone lock as a weapon.

"Ren Qingshan, you have helped me today, and my Qian family will reward you with 100,000 taels of silver!"

In a moment of crisis, he offered a tempting deal, setting an extremely high price.

Ren Qingshan continued to slash with his sword, his movements as unsteady as a raging wind, without offering a word.

Let's fight! Stop talking nonsense!

Even if I kill you and confiscate the Qian family's property, I'll still get a lot of money.

Qian Chengxun blocked dozens of blows in succession, only to feel a numbness and tingling in his arm, and his internal energy circulation was also disrupted. It seemed that Ren Qingshan's martial arts realm had already opened all four meridians!

He slammed the stone wolf in his hand down and fled upwards again. Knowing that Ren Qingshan was powerful, he did not want to fight him anymore. Killing Fang Yanping was the top priority!

boom!

With his head smashed through the deck, Qian Chengxun climbed back onto the deck, only to see an arrow hurtling towards him like lightning!

This arrow came from Fang Yanping on the water!

In mid-air, he twisted his waist sharply, his body almost like a nimble ape, narrowly avoiding the arrow, while the blade light below came again!

brush!

The sharp blade, like a horizontal bolt of lightning, struck him squarely.

The protective aura was pierced by the blade's edge, and Qian Chengxun's legs suddenly hit the ground, only to be severed at the waist. He tried to exert force with his upper body, but could only let out a scream.

His eyes flashed with a ferocious madness as he stared intently at Ren Qingshan, unleashing a powerful palm strike with all his might.

A surge of powerful true energy roared in.

Ren Qingshan returned the favor with a slap.

On the deck, the constables and yamen runners saw half of Qian Chengxun fly high into the air, spitting blood, and fall heavily to the ground, his intestines spilling out.

Upon seeing this, Fang Yanping's pupils constricted, but he was secretly delighted: "Excellent swordsmanship!"

Ren Qingshan beheaded Qian Chengxun!

He praised the arrow, then continued to draw his bow and shoot at the black crocodile and the giant snake underwater, nimbly navigating the boat on his sling.

Guan Shanyue seized the opportunity and shot an arrow, which struck Qian Chengxun squarely in the throat.

With this final blow, Qian Chengxun's neck bones shattered, and he died instantly.

Ren Qingshan jumped onto the deck, and amidst a chorus of surprised and awe-inspiring gazes, he stood with his knife in hand, blood dripping from the tip.

"Keep a close watch on Qian Yuyan's body and head!"

With a roar, Ren Qingshan looked at the long snake not far away, kicked away a piece of the boat plank, and then flew away. He lightly touched the boat plank in the water with his toes, then leaped high into the air, poured his true energy into the blade, and slashed down fiercely!

boom!

Amidst the towering waves, a green snake as thick as a thigh was struck by a single blade. The clash between its scales and the blade's edge produced a resounding clang that sent Ren Qingshan flying high into the air.

This is also a jade snake with amazing defense!

Even though the scales were damaged and several pieces were knocked off, and the blade's edge penetrated three-tenths of an inch into the flesh, it still failed to sever them.

The jade snake went berserk, its long tail whipping towards Ren Qingshan like a giant whip, producing a piercing sonic boom.

Ren Qingshan's feet seemed to sway in the wind, like a gentle breeze brushing against willows, thus avoiding the attack.

call out!

Fang Yanping fired a series of arrows, aiming at the snake's head from a position that was barely visible.

Then they saw an arrow pierce the snake's head, striking its eye and going straight in!

A dark shadow rushed towards Ren Qingshan's feet; it was the black crocodile that had seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, baring its sharp teeth and snapping at him.

Holding the precious sword, Ren Qingshan infused it with his true energy, and used the sword as a hidden weapon to pierce its throat.

At the same time, all ten fingers fired in rapid succession, and streams of true energy exploded on its body, splattering blood and flesh.

The black crocodile, in pain, immediately swooped down.

However, with the knife stuck in its throat, after struggling for a while, a black crocodile carcass about two meters long floated on the surface of the water, with a head like a crocodile and a body like a shark.

The jade snake with an arrow in its eye was surprisingly intelligent; it left a trail of blood in the water before disappearing into the distance.

The people on deck cheered loudly at the sight.

Won!

We won!

What a thrilling and brutal battle!

Lord Fang is so brave!

Officer Ren is a valiant warrior!

First, they beheaded Qian Chengxun, then they killed Black Crocodile!

The pleasure boat was already on the verge of sinking, with water submerging more than half of the cabin and suffering from multiple breaches. It was clearly beyond repair. Ren Qingshan frowned slightly and looked between the two banks.

Both sides of this side are cliffs, but not sheer cliffs; there are gentle slopes.

Taking a deep breath, Ren Qingshan plunged into the water, pulled out the anchor from the damaged section, held the huge iron anchor, pulled the rope, and headed towards the shore.

Fang Yanping was about to ask him what he was doing when he saw this scene and his eyes lit up!

Make a bridge with anchor ropes!

Although you can't walk on it, you can still grab the rope and swim to shore.

Holding the anchor, Ren Qingshan quickly reached the shore, firmly anchored it into the rock, and then shouted to the crowd, urging them to come ashore.

Fang Yanping still held his bow, wary that the jade snake might return.

The constable and his yamen runners were all strong and healthy. They carried the heads and corpses of important figures, grabbed the anchor ropes, and crossed the river to reach the shore.

"They're only thinking about crossing the river themselves!"

"Carry the woman on your back! Whoever carries her on their back gets to keep her!"

"The female captives on the ship were all trained by Qingyulou from a young age; their skill in sitting on vats is unparalleled!"

As the battle came to an end, Ren Qingshan, filled with boundless pride, laughed and shouted at his brothers.

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, especially the young constables.

Such a good thing!

Your Excellency is generous and generous!

Upon hearing this, Fang Yanping's eyes flickered slightly. Although he felt it resembled the habits of a bandit, he didn't say anything more at this moment.

After all, everyone had gone through a life-or-death ordeal and almost all of them died.

The painted boat slowly sank to the bottom of the water.

Ren Qingshan stepped on the Taiping basket, picked up the gold and silver from the bag and the black crocodile carcass, and took back his knife in the process.

ashore.

A group of wet yamen runners and women, and rows of waterlogged corpses and heads.

Fang Yanping was deathly pale and coughed up blood repeatedly. He had actually been seriously injured by that palm strike, and he had been suppressing it all along. Now that he felt relieved, he could no longer hold back.

Although he was well-versed in traditional Chinese medicine, this kind of internal injury could not be healed in a short time.

"Sir, it should be 150 li from here to the county seat, and at most 50 li to Tongbao Town where the Qian family lives."

"Do you think the Qian family will continue to try and kill you along the way?"

Ren Qingshan suddenly said.

Fang Yanping's eyes suddenly narrowed, and a bitter smile appeared on his lips—it definitely will!

Now that things have come to this, the Qian family will definitely fight to the death.

If they can be intercepted and killed outside the city, the Qian family will still have a glimmer of hope!

However, the truth is only written by the victors.

Ren Qingshan gave him a deep look and ordered, "Guan Shanyue, Ren Yaokang, you two will travel by water and swim across secretly. If you encounter a merchant ship, board it when the opportunity arises and head to Piaoshui County. If you hear news of the lord's death, I don't need to tell you what to do. If we return to the city safely, I will send someone to inform you."

This path, going against the grain, may allow us to preserve the spark of truth even if we cannot escape death today.

The two were slightly taken aback, then suddenly realized.

Fang Yanping instantly understood Ren Qingshan's meaning, and he immediately decided, "Let's go!"

Guan Shanyue and Ren Yaohui looked stern, cupped their hands and said goodbye, took off their constable and yamen runner clothes, put on ordinary short shirts, and quickly left along the river.

"Pang Ziyan, take two men and don't take the main road. Find a secluded village nearby and hide there. If the villagers resist, I'll allow you to kill them. Wait until nightfall, then choose an opportunity to return to the city!"

Ren Qingshan then said, "Let's scatter another spark."

Pang Ziyan knew that this matter was of great importance, so he immediately accepted the order, selected two capable men, and left quickly.

After both constables left.

The atmosphere on the field was solemn.

I was genuinely anxious about the journey back to the city, wondering what might happen.

Ren Qingshan remained calm. He first led his men to quickly dig several large pits, bury the unimportant corpses, and cover them with soil and stones so that no trace could be seen. Only the heads of the two bandit leaders and Qian Chengxun, as well as Qian Yuyan's head and body, were left—to reduce the burden but preserve the key evidence.

"Brothers, let's go! I'll live and die with you! My son was just born last night, and this is what happens to him today! Damn it! The Qian family!"

"We'll take the official road. Once we're on it, if we encounter any pedestrians or caravans, we'll requisition them, pay them, and have them come back to the city with us!"

The group of constables, who were filled with fear and worry, exchanged glances upon hearing this and a hint of joy appeared on their faces.

Many hands make light work. Although the group gathered together was a mob, how could the Qian family possibly kill them all?

Fang Yanping's internal energy was still not flowing smoothly, but upon hearing this arrangement, he couldn't help but feel a little more confident.

Qingshan—truly a man of both wisdom and courage!

If it weren't for him today, I would surely have died on the pleasure boat, at the hands of the Qian family!

After walking for several miles, the group reached the main road.

Implement the plan accordingly.

Upon encountering pedestrians and caravans along the way, he invoked the name of the county magistrate to conscript them, employing both soft and hard tactics. After more than an hour, he managed to gather over a hundred people, two horse-drawn carriages, and more than a dozen oxcarts.

It has a rather grand and majestic feel to it.

Smiles gradually appeared on everyone's faces, and they were full of admiration for Chief Constable Ren's method.

God man!

A true genius!

Following Lord Ren for a living, it seems there's no hurdle you can't overcome.

His martial prowess and strategic brilliance surpass even those of Lord Fang.
