Chapter Twelve: Settling Scores

  Su Dong slightly furrowed his brow and walked over to Su Qi Nian's side, asking: "Father, what's going on?"

  Su Qiannian said with a dark face: "These people say that our family's courtyard has been sold, I asked them to bring Du Jian over, they refused, and I was arguing with them."

  It's no wonder that Su Qi Nian, a cultured person, has gone mad at this moment. He still speaks slowly and elegantly, but in fact, he is quarreling, yet he uses the word "theory".

  Su Dong was very clear about the house. At that time, the yard was extremely cold and couldn't be sold at all. Su Qi didn't care about this set, thinking the yard was quite big and cheap, so he bought it from butcher Du Jian.

  Du Jianzheng was worried that the house wouldn't sell, and when he met Su Qiyuan, a big spender, he was naturally delighted. At that time, Su Qiyuan had just arrived in Hansheng City and didn't have much money, so Du Jian proposed installment payments.

  Su Qianni spent money generously and didn't have the habit of saving. Every year, she would give Du Jian some money, but not a lot. By now, she had already paid 170 taels, still short of 130 taels. Du Jian wasn't too concerned either; originally, he couldn't sell the house, but someone was willing to buy it, so he was already content.

  All these years have been peaceful, but the house deed has always been in Du Jian's hands and can only be obtained after paying off all the remaining payments.

  "Ask clearly about the situation, Su Dong smiled slightly and said: 'Everyone, our Su family is not that unreasonable, as long as this yard is really yours, we will naturally let it go. It's simple, just find the original owner Du Jian and ask him, things will be clear.'"

  Su Dongnian was not very old, but he spoke in a dignified manner, with a certain air about him. The several public security officers did not respond, they just looked at a stout middle-aged man, who was He Yongsong.

  Learning that the Su family's courtyard has spiritual energy, He Yan Song found Du Jian and forced him to sign a contract. Later, he came to the Su family to drive people away, trying to occupy this courtyard.

  "No need to look for Du Jian, the house deed is all here, what else can you say!?" He Yansong said, waving the house deed in his hand.

  Su Dong said calmly, "You have the deed, we have Du Jian's receipt, which clearly states that the house payment is to be made in installments. How can this be? Is it possible that Du Jian sold one courtyard to two households?"

  Su Qi Nian was taken aback, looking at Su Dong with a surprised gaze. His son is really eloquent, not many words, but every sentence hits the nail on the head.

  He deliberately avoided the house contract and said that Du Jianyi had sold the house twice. In this case, we still need to find Du Jian to ask questions. As long as Du Jian comes, with his wooden melon head, how can he withstand interrogation? The truth will inevitably come to light.

  "That's right! Du Jian must be behind this! We have to call him in for questioning! Fortunately, the Public Security Bureau is also here. If Du Jian is guilty of selling out his own house, we'll punish him on the spot!" Su Qiannian asked sternly.

  With Su Dong by his side, Su Qi Nian seemed to have gained more confidence and his voice grew louder. It was as if the young Su Dong possessed some kind of magical power, with a calm and adaptable demeanor that greatly boosted Su Qi Nian's confidence.

  "Cut the nonsense, we're here to inform you that you need to move out! You have until tomorrow noon to get out of this courtyard!" He Yansong's butler, He Jiu, said with a raised head and an air of mystery.

  "Your family has lived here for over ten years and only gave 170 taels of silver, how dare you say that? In fact, our He family had long bought this house, it's just that our master is kind-hearted, seeing your son lying ill in bed, pitied you. Now that your son has recovered, do you still want to rely on not leaving?"

  After hearing this, Su Dong's face suddenly darkened and he muttered to himself: "Surnamed He? His surname is He? That makes it the second time..."

  Fei Liu and Jia San, the two bailiffs, were actually helpers invited by the He family. Seeing that the situation was at a stalemate, Jia San impatiently stepped forward and pushed Su Qiannian's chest, saying unreasonably: "The house deed is in whose hands, the house belongs to whom! Don't waste words! You have to move today, whether you want to or not!"

  Su Qi Nian was pushed and stumbled, falling onto the ground with a thud.

  Just then, a black shadow suddenly shot out from beside Su Qiannian!

  It's Su Dong!

  As the old saying goes, things don't happen three times, but the strange door has its own rules. Don't mention the third time, twice is already the limit!

  This is already the second conflict between He's family and Su's family, also the maximum limit that Su Dong can tolerate!

  "Dry thunder!"

  Su Dong just learned this battle skill today, and it's perfect for use now!

  With a single hand, Su Dong raised his spiritual energy and slapped Jia San's arm with a swift palm before he could even retract it!

  Bang!

  Only a deafening thunder-like sound erupted, and Jia San's arm was completely blown to smithereens! Even the bones were shattered! Accompanied by blood spraying everywhere like a fountain!

  Everyone around was stunned, He Yansong, He Yansong's steward He Jiu, and Fei Liu from the Security Bureau, all had a face full of blood.

  No one expected Su Dong to make a move, and even less expected him to be so ruthless when he did!

  One hit, Su Dong had no intention of showing mercy, his body lowered, one arm withdrawn to the back, and another palm was slapped out, this time aiming at He Yansong's heart!

  He's dead meat! Su Dong intends to take his life directly!

  Seeing this palm coming in a flash, it was already upside down on He Yansong's chest, and he was about to hit him while speaking!

  Su Dong is not an ordinary warrior, his attack is not sharp at all, but very violent!

  Suppose this slap really hits him, it can open a hole bigger than a bucket on He Yan's chest and shatter him directly!

  Just as he was about to speak, a tall figure swiftly leaped onto the battlefield and with one swift motion, grabbed Su Dong's arm and pulled him back!

  "What are you doing? Why such a heavy hand?"

  This man was Zhou Xing, the head of the Tianxing Martial Arts Hall. He had received an order from the hall's master, Yang Taishi, to come and take a look at the situation at the Su family home. As it happened, he arrived just in time to see Su Dong hurt someone, so he quickly stepped forward to stop him.

  He Yansong was so scared that he wet his pants, his face turned pale and bloodless.

  Zhang San, the head of the public security bureau, rolled on the ground, howling: "My arm! My arm is gone! What are you still stunned for? Cut him off for me!"

  Can't help but say that Su Dong's martial skills are astonishing! Jia San's arms were gone all day, all of them were blown up by Su Dong's explosive spiritual power, and they were all turned into powder.

  Several constables immediately drew their knives and with a fierce attitude wanted to seize Su Dong.

  Another small leader of the Security Department, Fei Liu, had practiced martial arts for a few days and discovered that Su Dong was using a kind of spiritual power! A very violent kind of spiritual power! And there was Zhou Xing, whom Fei Liu recognized as the head coach of the Tianxing Martial Arts Academy!

  He felt something was off, so Fei Liu hastily stopped his men and shouted: "Put down your knives! This young master is a Ling warrior! Do you dare to attack him with swords? Don't you want to live?!?"

  Spirit War!?

  Those few captains of the security guards were stunned on the spot!

  The two words "Spirit Warrior" are really too loud! In this era, who dares to provoke a Spirit Warrior is simply seeking death!

  On the side, Su Ning and Su Qi Nian also looked very surprised. Su Ning's eyes were wide with incredulity as he stared at Su Dong, while Su Qi Nian let out a light sigh, seemingly unhappy that Su Dong had become a Ling Warrior.

  Bang! Bang!

  Fei Liu directly used his big mouth to slap himself in the face.

  Plop!

  After finishing off his subordinates, Fei Liu directly knelt down in front of Su Dong, kowtowing and begging for mercy: "We didn't know your identity! Please spare our lives!"

  Having said that, he hastily waved his hand at his subordinates and shouted: "You few still don't hurry to help the old man get up! Then kneel down and apologize!"

  The several captains of the constabulary came to their senses, lifted Su Qiannian from the ground, and then like a chick pecking at grain, they repeatedly knocked their heads against the ground, begging Su Qiannian for mercy.

  Su Qiannian was indeed a bookworm, and his face was thin. He actually reached out to help these guys, and said something like "it's okay" as he did so. Su Dong naturally felt very annoyed, but there was nothing he could do about it.

  Zhou Xing's face turned cold and stern, and he sneered: "You're quite perceptive, Su Dong is indeed a warrior of my Tianxing Martial Arts Academy, ranked at the beginning of the Spiritual Warrior stage! Dare to draw your sword against a powerful Spiritual Warrior? How many heads do you have?"

  As soon as the Tianxing Wuguan was mentioned, those few Public Security Bureau guys' heads were knocked even harder, they cracked open and blood spurted out. Whether it's the Ling Warriors or the Tianxing Wuguan, they are all existences that these small fries can't afford to provoke.

  How old is Su Dong? He's already a strong warrior at the initial stage of Spiritual Fighting! It's simply unimaginable!

  Although his palm strike was different from other spiritual warriors, that violent spiritual power was absolutely genuine!

  Even Jia San, who had his arm broken by Su Dong, struggled to get up and wailed loudly.

  Naja San's arm was gone, blood gushing out like a spring, his face pale, and he looked like he was about to collapse.

  Su Dong remained unmoved, not even raising an eyebrow. This fierce aura was so astonishing that Zhou Xing, who had killed several people before, felt surprised and pushed Su Dong from behind.

  "Get out!" Su Dong said simply.

  The people from the Department of Public Security came crawling and rolling in, carrying Jia Sanqian away with gratitude.

  Zhou Xing said lightly, "Let them off and it's best. Even if the Ling War strongman kills these people without having to pay with their lives, it's still better not to abuse one's own power. After all, the Security Department is a matter of the imperial family."

  Su Dong said calmly and lightly: "I didn't know that killing people as a warrior doesn't require retribution, so it's not considered abuse of power."

  *sigh*

  Su Qi Nian, Su Ning, and also He Yan Song who was frightened silly, along with his butler, were all stunned. A chill ran down their spines, a cold feeling that went straight to the bone!

  Su Dong didn't know whether he should pay with his life for killing someone or if he had just made a fatal move!

  Su Dong stands calmly, with a refined and elegant demeanor, who would have thought of his previous tactics!?

  Zhou Xing is a straightforward person. He doesn't like Su Dong's ruthless and poisonous methods, but he dislikes even more the trampling of a strong spirit warrior's dignity by others.

  His old face turned black, Zhou Xing coldly said to He Yansong and his steward He Jiu who were already frightened out of their wits: "You dare to rob the property of a Lingzhan strongman? You're going to die this time!"
