Chapter 277: The Same Breed of Dog Eyes
Unexpectedly, Jintian admitted it so brazenly, completely fearless. Their dispute quickly drew the attention of many bystanders…
"Isn't that Jintian? Who's he bullying this time?"
"Looks like Jintian held back that kid's order."
"Seems like this kid is about to get crushed."
"…"
After a long silence, Li Jiexuan drew the Kusanagi Sword and said coldly, "I'll give you one last chance to speak. I hope you treasure it."
"Go to hell! Still putting on an act?" Jintian had clearly decided to go all out. In front of everyone, he sneered, "Let me make it clear today so long as I, Jintian, am still around, don't even think about buying a single ninja tool in the Land of Artisans!"
"Even if I'm not some big figure here, Master Qingzheng "
"Buzz!!!"
A strange humming sound rang out. Jintian stopped mid-sentence, confusion flashing across his face as he reached up to touch his neck.
"Drip… drip…"
Bright red blood slowly trickled from his neck, then began to flow together into a stream. Then… Jintian felt the world spin violently before he collapsed to the ground, losing all consciousness.
With a single strike, his head was severed from his body…
Moments ago, his confident declaration still seemed to echo in the air: as long as he, Jintian, lived, Li Jiexuan wouldn't be able to buy a single ninja tool.
"And now?"
Li Jiexuan sneered. There were always useless people like this in the world those who blamed others for their own mistakes. It was truly disgusting.
But no matter what, Li Jiexuan had just killed someone…
"Murder!"
"Someone killed Jintian!"
"A ninja attacked a craftsman!"
In an instant, the entire Qingzheng workshop descended into chaos.
Very soon, the commotion drew Qingzheng out from the VIP room…
This man had dazzling silver hair under normal circumstances, he would have been quite handsome. Unfortunately, his face was sharp and narrow, with a rather unpleasant, triangular shape.
"Who killed Jintian?"
The moment he saw Jintian's corpse, Qingzheng roared in fury. Jintian had been his most capable subordinate and had even secured a major deal for him today.
And now he was dead just like that?
"It was me."
Li Jiexuan didn't retreat in the slightest. He stepped forward with a cold smile. "You must be this so-called Master Qingzheng?"
Seeing Li Jiexuan's expensive clothing and extraordinary bearing, Qingzheng frowned, his tone still relatively restrained. "Who are you?"
"Li Jiexuan, from XuanLord Town of the Land of Water." Li Jiexuan sneered. "Master Qingzheng really is forgetful, isn't he…"
"XuanLord Town?" Suddenly recalling something, Qingzheng's expression changed. A vicious grin spread across his face. "So it's you, you damned little swindler?"
"Men, seize this brat!"
After confirming Li Jiexuan's background, Qingzheng barked the order with a sinister smile. "I'll make sure to give him a proper 'welcome' to avenge Jintian!"
Sure enough, Jintian's snobbish, status-based arrogance was inherited from the same source…
At Qingzheng's command, more than a dozen craftsman-ninjas rushed out of the workshop, surrounding Li Jiexuan completely…
"Looks like things have come to this after all."
Li Jiexuan sneered as he drew the Kusanagi Sword. He hadn't wanted to kill too much in the main world and damage his reputation but killing dogs didn't count as a stain…
It seemed he was about to bathe the Land of Artisans in blood!
"Lord Jiexuan?" Aomochen widened his eyes in surprise and stepped forward. "Lord Jiexuan, why are you here?"
"And you are?"
"My name is Aomochen. I had the honor of seeing you once at a meeting in Kumogakure."
Only then did Li Jiexuan understand. That prestigious family from Kumogakure must have been Omoi's clan this Aomochen was very likely Omoi's grandfather.
Just as Aomochen was about to continue the conversation, Qingzheng grabbed him with a strange expression. "Lord Aomochen, what did you just call that little swindler?"
