Chapter 455: I Feel Like Dying Today

We belong to Brigade Four of the Wolf Battalion, my lord. Our orders are to search north for Ye Qing, Ye Qing bowed his head and replied calmly.

So, you havent found Ye Qing yet? Hah trash. The garrison commandant snorted.

Ye Qing kept his head low and didnt respond.

When the garrison commandanthis name was Wu Jianheard no response from Ye Qing, he slowly added, Oh, dont misunderstand. Im not calling you trash. Im saying that everyone in the Wolf Battalion is trash.

His men burst out laughing as well. With that, Wu Jian waved his hand and declared, Lets go.

The guard of Black Water Cavalry trotted past Ye Qings company, some of them still laughing and muttering insults under their breaths.

However, the cavalry had just traveled a short distance when suddenly, Wu Jian looked back at Ye Qing and said, Oh right, I almost forgot. Tell your commandant, Wang Xiu, that Im inviting him for a drink at Apricot Inn tomorrow night. If he doesnt show up, then I wont be paying him back the one hundred tael I owe him.

Im sorry, my lord, but our commandant isnt called Wang Xiu! Ye Qing replied while scoffing mentally. He was certain that the commandant of Brigade Four wasnt named Wang Xiu. If he answered affirmatively, then Wu Jian would know that he was, in fact, a fake. He had witnessed this trick way too many times both in real life and TV to fall for it.

Besides, Wang Xiu was obviously a girls name. What kind of parents would name their son Wang Xiu? The guy thought he could trick him when he couldnt even be bothered to come up with a better name? What a lazy piece of shit! Hmph!

What? But to Ye Qings surprise, Wu Jian suddenly turned around with a look of confusion on his face. You dont know your own commandants name? Are you a new guy, or are you not one of us?

Realization struck him as he blurted, Youre!

Before Wu Jian could say anything else, his eyes suddenly grew unfocused, and whatever he was going to say was forgotten. At the same time, he fell right off his horse.

Commandant!

Commandant, whats wrong?!

Things had happened so quickly that most of the cavalrymen didnt notice anything amiss until their garrison commandant fell over. Panic and confusion gripped them for a moment.

Then, Wu Jian abruptly snapped out of his daze, pushed himself back to his feet, and roared on top of his lungs, Kill him! Hes Ye Qing!

Wu Jians heart thudded inside his chest like a drum. If he didnt have a Mind Shielding Jade, he would be dead already. But after he regained his calm, a hint of excitement began budding inside his heart. If he could kill Ye Qing here, he would gain a three-rank promotion and ten thousand silver. It was the opportunity of a lifetime!

Kill him now!

His vision grew blurry, and blood slowly trickled down his lips. Wu Jian could feel his life slowly draining away from his body. He regretted his decision. He shouldnt have allowed his greed to get the better of him. As soon as he discovered Ye Qing, he shouldve shot a flare and stalled the battle out until reinforcements showed up. Had he done that, he might still live to see tomorrows sun. Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret.

No! Theres still one thing I can do. I will take you to the grave with me if its the last thing I do!

Eyes bloodshot, Wu Jian gritted his teeth and slapped his fingers on the flare token inside his sleeves. A red flare immediately shot up to the sky and exploded.

Hahaha! Youre dead, Ye Qing! Dead!

Wu Jian laughed like a madman when his last ditch effort succeeded.

Ye Qing didnt seem to notice his action, however. Red Sleeve resting snugly in his palm, he continued to cut down the Black Water Cavalry like a gust of spring wind that bloomed countless red flowers.

Words couldnt describe how angry Wu Jian felt when he saw his men falling one after another. He roared, Youre a monster, Ye Qing! A monster!

You done yelling? A few breaths later, Ye Qing appeared in front of Wu Jian with a grin on his face. Relax, I didnt kill all of your men. I kept some of them alive since living people are more useful than dead people.

What What does that mean? Wu Jian suddenly had a bad feeling about this.

Ye Qing chuckled. Nothing. Im just recycling the trash, thats all.

You wont escape, Ye Qing! Ive already shot a flare! When the rest of the Hengshan Army shows up, not even the heavens could save you from death!

Wu Jian didnt know what Ye Qing was planning, but he was certain that there was nothing the young man could do to avert his demise. You will not escape, Ye Qing!

Thats for me to worry about, not you. Goodbye. Ye Qing tapped Wu Jian on the throat, and every bone in his neck shattered into smithereens. The garrison commandant was dead in the blink of an eye.

After Wu Jian was dead, Ye Qings smile was replaced by grim determination.

Why didnt you stop him, boy? The Fog Demon appeared beside Ye Qing and asked.

He was too fast, Ye Qing replied indifferently.

Do you think Im stupid? The Fog Demon sneered. I know you sensed his actions earlier. You absolutely couldve stopped him if you wanted to. What on earth are you planning? Youre not actually planning to commit suicide, are you?

In fact, I am. Im tired of living like this, so

Ye Qings facial muscles relaxed as an enigmatic smile bloomed across his face. I think Im gonna die now!
