75 Total Annihilation
On the side of the mountain, a group of Shi family members were huddled together, paralyzed on the ground, waiting for Shi Jintai to return.
âThis damned Zhang Shan, what did he use? The effects are so strong.â Shi Quantang leaned against a rock with an unsightly expression.
Once he tried to use his blood Qi to dissolve the knockout powder, his blood Qi would be consumed rapidly, and he would not be able to last even a quarter of an hour.
However, the moment he stopped, the drugâs effect came back again, making him unable to move.
These two kinds of medicinal effects were not fatal individually, but when combined, they would completely cripple a martial artist.
âCan the family head defeat Zhang Shan? a noble lady wearing a full set of jewelry looked uneasy and asked in a trembling voice.
The other family members were also trembling with fear. They had lived a comfortable life and had never encountered such a situation before.
âWho does that Zhang Shan think he is? Heâs just a second-class martial artist. He only knows how to use underhanded methods and rely on forbidden techniques to force his way up.â
Shi Quantangâs face darkened. âIf not for the fact that the family head is injured, I could have dealt with him in one move. Even now, killing Zhang Shan would not be a problem!â
Shi Junwei and the other martial artists were also calm. Perhaps the family head would die after this battle, but he would definitely not lose!
A moment later, rustling footsteps could be heard from the forest.
Everyoneâs spirits were roused, and they hurriedly looked over.
âIt seems that Master has already dealt with him,â Shi Quantang said with confidence.
Shi Junwei stared in the direction of the footsteps, his face filled with worry. âI wonder if Father is seriously injured.â
As they spoke, a figure covered in blood slowly walked out of the forest.
He stood in front of the Shi family and looked down at them, like a tiger looking down at a group of sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
The confidence on Shi Quantangâs face was completely destroyed in an instant.
âThatâs impossible,â he said subconsciously.
Everyone from the Shi family was also shocked, looking at the man in disbelief.
âWhy is Zhang Shan the one who came back alive?!â
âThe family head is so powerful. How could he be defeated by a second-class martial artist?â someone mumbled in a daze.
âDid you trap Master somewhere?â One of the martial artists lost his mind and roared.
Jiang Ming grinned. âYou can go and accompany him soon!â
He strode forward, his eyes full of murderous intent.
Shi Jintai was already dead. Jiang Ming was too lazy to say anything to these idiots. He just had to kill them all.
âHe killed the family head. He must be at the end of his life. Donât just sit there and wait for death, fight him!â Shi Quantang came back to his senses and roared. He stood up without any hesitation and his blood Qi exploded as he slapped Jiang Mingâs chest.
Shi Junwei and the other Shi family martial artists also activated their blood Qi and charged toward Jiang Ming with grief and indignation. The head of the family was dead, but Zhang Shan was still alive. No matter what, they would not let them off.
âUnfortunately, Iâm not completely exhausted.â Jiang Mingâs eyes were indifferent. The power of the Blood-Burning Saber Technique wrapped around his fist and collided with Shi Quantangâs palm.
With just one strike, Shi Quantangâs arm exploded. Blood, flesh, and broken bones flew everywhere. However, Jiang Mingâs fist did not stop and directly hit Shi Quantangâs shoulder.
Half of Shi Quantangâs body instantly exploded into a mist of blood. His head flew high into the air, fell into the grass in the distance, and rolled down the mountain.
âHow are you still able to use the forbidden technique?â Shi Junwei asked in shock.
This was simply beyond common sense. The Shi familyâs understanding of the forbidden technique was much more than that of an ordinary martial artist. Shi Junwei simply could not understand how someone could use a forbidden technique in such a carefree manner.
Jiang Mingâs face became more and more ferocious, and he said, âEven if I have to risk my life, I will destroy the Shi family!â
âWhat enmity do you have with the Shi family?â Shi Junwei could not help but ask.
Jiang Ming was too lazy to speak. He sneered and rushed forward.
It had to be said that the youngest genius of the Shi family, Shi Junwei, was quite competent. He was even stronger than Shi Quantang. He had already refined the blood Qi in his veins. He dodged a few of Jiang Mingâs moves.
âUnfortunately, youâre still not strong enough. Come back into a good family in your next life!â
Jiang Ming forced Shi Junwei into a corner where he could not escape. He seized the opportunity and punched him in the chest!
With a bang, his flesh exploded. Nothing was left.
Jiang Ming glanced at the body on the ground and pouted.
âWhat?â He suddenly noticed that there were a few crystal-like objects in the flesh of Shi Junweiâs corpse. They did not look like bones.
However, this was not the time to study these things. Jiang Ming kept it in mind and quickly went to the remaining martial artists.
Jiang Ming turned into a ruthless killer and killed one martial artist after another. There were more and more corpses on the ground.
A few martial artists seized the opportunity and wanted to escape. Alas, how could they escape from Jiang Mingâs pursuit? Moreover, this mountain forest was Jiang Mingâs territory.
Jiang Ming killed all the martial artists in less than a quarter of an hour.
âThere were 26 martial artists. There are still 49 family members left.â Jiang Ming counted the number of people he had killed.
His body was dripping with blood, both his enemyâs and his own. He held his blade and slowly walked towards the family members who were paralyzed on the ground.
âDonât kill usâ¦â
âIâve never done anything evil. Iâm just a member of the Shi family. Iâve never been involved in the outside world,â the noble lady with all kinds of gorgeous jewelry plead tearfully.
âEvery time they go out to do evil, I burn incense at home and pray, hoping that God can pardon their crimes.â
âPardon them? Can you be at ease by praying to atone for your sins?â Jiang Ming chuckled.
The lady still wanted to explain, but metal suddenly flashed.
Her head fell to the ground, and her necklace made of pearls and gems also broke and fell into a pool of blood.
Screams echoed in the night sky. After a while, Jiang Ming was the only person alive left in the mountains.
...
All the direct descendants of the Shi family had been killed.
