My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 276: The Li Family’s Secret Business

A fist, seemingly wreathed in flames, slammed into the main gate.

BOOM! CRACK!

The gate shattered instantly, sending a shower of fragments flying inward. The blast injured the Martial Artists inside, neutralizing their ability to fight in a single moment.

Yang Qi paid no attention to them, instead heading straight for the inner hall.

"Who goes there!" Suddenly, two experts spotted Yang Qi and charged straight at him.

A First Rank Great Grandmaster? Good grief, to have a First Rank Great Grandmaster acting as a guard… The Li Family is certainly full of hidden masters!

Yang Qi didn't respond and continued walking forward. Enraged, the two men lunged at him.

Yang Qi flicked his fingers, sending two beams of Golden Light shooting out. His Alchemy Blade could not only transform into a sword but also into Flying Knives.

PFFT! PFFT!

Two golden Flying Knives pierced their acupoints. They collapsed to the ground, unconscious. Yang Qi hadn't dealt a killing blow. Every debt has its debtor. As long as these people didn't interfere, he would only target Li Chong, not them.

Just as he was about to continue forward, Yang Qi noticed strange tattoos on the arms of the two fallen men.

The Kangshan Sect!

So these two experts were from the Kangshan Sect. The tattoo of a mountain, combined with a stylized character for 'Kang,' was quite conspicuous. Yang Qi scoffed and continued on his way. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Along the way, he encountered several more experts, some from the Kangshan Sect and others from the Li Family, but he dealt with them all. Since these people bore him no personal grudge, he chose not to kill them, instead merely putting them to sleep so they wouldn't get in his way.

Finally, he reached the vicinity of the inner hall, where a large number of guards appeared. Among them were Martial Artists as well as ordinary men armed with Strong Bows and Crossbows, all of them well-trained. It was clear from their palpable Killing Aura that they had killed before—and not just one person each.

In that case, Yang Qi felt no need to hold back. He would show mercy if he could, but he wouldn't hesitate if he couldn't. After all, his own life was the most important thing.

All the Strong Bows and Crossbows were aimed at Yang Qi. In the hands of these specially trained individuals, such cold weapons were more terrifying than firearms.

"I'd advise you not to make a move," Yang Qi said, casually chewing a piece of gum. "The moment you attack is the moment you accept the price of death."

The crowd was stunned. This ordinary-looking young man, dressed in plain cloth, was facing hundreds of Strong Bows and Crossbows and dozens of experts, yet he remained utterly calm. He was either crazy or a true master.

BOOM!

Yang Qi suddenly punched a massive boulder beside him. The rock shattered on impact, exploding into countless pieces.

Everyone's eyes widened in utter shock. That boulder was used for martial arts training; not even a Martial Arts Grandmaster could shatter it. Only a Great Grandmaster was capable of such a feat. Yet this ordinary-looking young man had just done it. This was terrifying.

"A Great Grandmaster!" the crowd exclaimed in unison.

"Now that you know, get out of my way. Don't make pointless sacrifices," Yang Qi said indifferently. He truly disliked killing. After all, he hadn't been practicing Immortal Cultivation for very long, and the sentiments of the mortal world still held a strong grip on him.

"Kill him!" someone suddenly yelled.

Yang Qi shook his head gently. As he watched the hundreds of Crossbow Arrows flying toward him, he sighed helplessly.

I don't want to kill. Why must they force my hand?

"Stone Armor Technique!"

Yang Qi's entire body was instantly enveloped in a layer of hard stone just as the Crossbow Arrows arrived.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

Something dumbfounding occurred. Every single Crossbow Arrow that struck Yang Qi was blocked, as if hitting solid rock, leaving not even a scratch behind. In the moment of their astonishment, a terrifying Killing Aura erupted from Yang Qi's eyes. He scooped up the fallen Crossbow Arrows and hurled them back, faster than they had arrived.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

One after another, men were struck down, dying on the spot. Those who survived were left howling in agony.

Yang Qi didn't want to kill, but that didn't mean he was afraid to. They were trying to kill him, so naturally, he would fight back. He wasn't about to sit back and wait for death. The only survivors were a few Martial Artists, but they were only at the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm. They had just realized how terrifying this young man truly was. They turned to flee, hoping to warn the others.

Unfortunately, Yang Qi was faster. His Wind Control Talisman allowed him to move at ten times the speed of a Martial Artist in the same realm. In an instant, he was behind them.

"Kill!" The men attacked him like madmen, desperately hoping one of them could get away. But they were to be disappointed. The blades they swung at Yang Qi were crushed in his grip as if they were made of clay.

With a series of thuds, they all collapsed to their knees, utterly terrified.

"Don't, don't kill us! We're not from the Li Family! We're from the Kangshan Sect, just visiting as guests!" they stammered, trying to use the name of their sect to intimidate him.

Yang Qi gave them a cold glance. "Where is Li Chong? And where are they holding Cao Zhendong?"

The men hastily told him.

Yang Qi glanced at a room in the distance. I'd better rescue Cao Zhendong first. If they use him as a hostage, things will get troublesome.

He turned and walked toward the room. The martial artists from the Kangshan Sect suddenly radiated an intense killing intent. For Yang Qi to dare turn his back on them was practically suicidal. They simultaneously drew hidden crossbows, preparing to shoot him in the back. A crossbow in the hands of a Martial Artist was far more powerful than one wielded by an ordinary person.

However, just as they produced their weapons, Yang Qi gently snapped his fingers.

BOOM!

A toxic mist enveloped them completely. With agonizing screams, the men dissolved into pools of pus. He didn't like to kill, but if someone was courting death, he didn't mind lending a hand.

Cao Zhendong was being held in a room by himself, with only two guards at the door. Neither of them was particularly strong. Yang Qi knocked them out and easily rescued him. The Li Family was far too arrogant. They seemed to believe no one would dare to break into their compound, much less rescue a prisoner from under their noses. But Yang Qi had done just that.

Yang Qi led Cao Zhendong back the way he came. Outside, Iron Heart was waiting.

"Take him back to the company," Yang Qi said with a smile. "Don't worry, I'll be back as soon as I've handled things here."

Inside the inner hall, Li Chong was conducting business. By his side stood his son, Li Ligang, and two experts from the Kangshan Sect. Kneeling opposite them were several people from Kappa Country. They were short in stature and had a preference for kneeling. They were here to do business with Li Chong. Kappa Country had always been interested in intelligence from Dragon Country—be it commercial secrets or any other kind. They wanted it all. As a port city, Kang City was the easiest place for infiltration. Thus, they had sought out Li Chong.

Li Chong was not only powerful but also incredibly well-connected. Collaborating with him was an ideal choice. Li Chong's other identity was, in fact, the Vice Sect Master of the Kangshan Sect. The Kangshan Sect was also involved in this affair.
