He reached out his hand and grabbed one of them.

And the man trembled in fright at his sudden other move.

"What...are you doing?"

Qi Pingan held the man's arm tightly and said in a deep voice: "You just said...what did you see?"

The man's feet were shaking with fear, and he fell to his knees with a plop?

"Youngster, I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything... Please forgive me, hero, please let me go."

Qi Pingan stared into the man's eyes and remained silent.

The man was about to burst into tears.

He only felt that the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped a few points, and it was so cold that his teeth chattered.

"Tell me everything you see."

Qi Pingan ordered coldly, his voice was eerie and terrifying, as if it came from hell.

The man was so oppressed by Qi Ping'an's momentum that he could hardly breathe. He swallowed hard and stuttered: "I, I was passing by last night and saw... I saw a group of bandits killing people. ..."

"Where, the specific situation!"

"On the southern outskirts of the city, more than thirty miles away from here, there is a small mountain village. There are hundreds of people in the village. They were bloodbathed by bandits. Some were killed, some were burned alive, and no bones were left... .”

The man narrated tremblingly.

Qi Ping'an narrowed his eyes slightly and said word by word: "You said you heard an old man say, Qijia Village?"

"Yes...yes!"

"Qijia Village...Village Chief..."

Qi Ping'an murmured in his mouth, his face became increasingly ugly, and his hands suddenly loosened.

"Da, Da Xia, if nothing happens, I... I'll leave first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man stood up neatly, turned around and ran away.

A trace of panic arose in Qi Ping'an's heart, and the panic grew bigger and bigger, and soon enveloped him.

"I want to go back!"

He slammed the table, stood up, and looked directly at the golden-scaled lion opposite who was enjoying the food.

The golden-scaled lion glanced sideways at him, then lowered his head and continued eating.

"I said, I want to go back!"

Seeing that he didn't care, Qi Pingan repeated it again.

The golden-scaled lion finally stopped eating this time, raised his head and looked directly at Qi Ping'an, and said calmly.

"Wait until I finish eating."

Qi Ping'an's eyebrows were twisted into knots, and his face was extremely dark. He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then sat down.

"Master Jin, does our deal still count?" he said abruptly.

The golden-scaled lion raised his eyebrows, "Of course."

A smile appeared on Qi Ping'an's face, "Thank you, Mr. Jin."

The golden-scaled lion ignored him and continued eating.

After half an hour.

Finally stopped.

Jin Linshi threw a piece of silver on the table, stood up and left the table.

"Master Jin!"

On the second floor, a clear and sweet voice suddenly came from the seating area.

The golden-scaled lion turned to look.

Ye Qing'er held her chin in one hand and stared at Jin Linshi with soft eyes, a faint smile on her lips.

"Little lady, can you invite Master Jin to have a drink with me?" she asked.

Before the golden-scaled lion could reply, Qi Pingan became anxious.

He must quickly return to the village to check the situation! ! !

So, he looked at the woman in green clothes on the second floor, and then at the golden-scaled lion.

His eyes flicked back and forth between the two of them.

"Master Jin..."

He called the golden-scaled lion.

The golden-scaled lion was unmoved and still looked at Ye Qing'er intently.

After a long time, the golden-scaled lion said: "No."

Before he finished speaking, he turned and left the tavern.

Ye Qing'er's expression was frozen there, her whole figure as motionless as a sculpture.

Looking at the other party's appearance, I thought he would agree! ! !

......

At this moment, it was completely dark and there were far fewer people on the streets.

Qi Pingan was walking through the silent streets, but his heart was on fire and his head was buzzing.

An hour later.

The two rushed to the village.

At a glance, he could see the village that had been burned to nothing but charred ruins, and the blackened bodies.

Qi Ping'an's chest rose and fell violently, and his breathing became extremely heavy.

He walked slowly into the village, one step at a time.

Every step he took was like stepping on the apex of his heart, as if his heart had been stabbed hard.

"How... is this possible? How could it become like this... Village chief, everyone..."

Qi Ping'an clenched his fists tightly, his eyes gradually became moist, and a ball of flame seemed to be choking in his throat, which made him feel dizzy in front of his eyes. He almost wanted to vomit, but he held it back.

Qi Pingan slowly knelt down and touched the dilapidated village inch by inch.

This is where he grew up.

But now, there is only a piece of scorched earth, desolate and without any human habitation.

The village chief and villagers were all buried in the flames, with no bones left.

Qi Ping'an clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turned white, his nails pierced into his flesh, and bright red blood oozed out. He seemed unaware.

A pair of eyes stared at the village, eager to see a living person emerge from the scorched coals.

"How could it be...so sudden that everyone died?"

He murmured to himself, his voice was a little hoarse, and there was a mist in his eyes.

Qijia Village is very poor. People are reluctant to buy anything to eat on weekdays. They all rely on farming to survive. Life is very hard.

But although the people in Qijia Village have no money, they are all simple and kind-hearted. They have never done any bad things in their lives, and they have never offended anyone, let alone hurt anyone. But why...why did they suffer this misfortune? !

Qi Pingan was heartbroken.

He stood there without speaking for a long time, his eyes were red and tears could not stop flowing down.

But he secretly vowed in his heart that he must find the real culprit and kill those who harmed Qijia Village with a thousand knives! ! !

He slowly closed his eyes, trying to calm down the grief and anger in his heart.

After a long time, he opened his eyes.

"Master Jin, with your ability, can you help me find the murderer of my relatives?"

Hearing this, the golden-scaled lion glanced at Qi Ping'an, with a sarcastic curve at the corner of his mouth.

"Do you really not know or are you unwilling to admit it in your heart?"

At that moment, Qi Ping'an felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

He fell to the ground dully, his eyes vacant and lifeless.

"So, is it really the Seven Star Sect that did it..."

The golden-scaled lion patted the dust on the ground, then sat down and looked up at the sky.

The bright moon hung high, and its light illuminated the night sky.

Just like yesterday.

"Qi Pingan, I reminded you."

"Seven Star Gate, these damn beasts!!!"

Qi Pingan's eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes, flashing with deep hatred, and his handsome face was extremely distorted.

"I'm going to make them pay a heavy price!!!"

"If you want to do it, do it to the end and eradicate it completely. Qi Ping'an, have you really thought about it this time?"

The golden-scaled lion stood up and looked down at Qi Ping'an who fell to the ground.

Qi Ping'an clenched his fists tightly, veins popped out on his forehead, and his whole body exuded a strong evil spirit.
