The hero has already shed blood on the battlefield; his family cannot be bullied any longer. Even the slightest trouble must be avoided.

On this point, Yun Yang would not back down. He was also very cautious.

Just as he had said to Juan'er, from now on, no one would dare to bully the families of the fallen soldiers.

How many there are, I will kill that many!

...

Yun Yang raised his head and took a deep breath, muttering, "Big Brother, I finally understand the meaning of your words, and I also understand why you asked me to come back and be an extralegal enforcer... It turns out that this world is still full of so much filth and evil... And these... so-called government laws cannot eliminate them all..."

"The hero has shed blood, he cannot shed tears anymore. You are right," Yun Yang muttered. "Big Brother, rest assured, I will remember your words!"

Just as Yun Yang was about to turn around, he suddenly trembled all over and immediately stopped. Because... he clearly felt several faint mysterious auras emanating from Wang Bao and the other four people, being absorbed by him...

"Indeed, it is so." Yun Yang's divine consciousness sank into his sea of consciousness, watching the small lotus sprout gently swaying, and it seemed to... have grown a bit?

"Indeed, absorbing the unjust aura of the world can make the lotus leaves grow; my guess was not wrong," Yun Yang pondered. "So, the more evil people I kill, the faster the Everlasting Creation Lotus will grow? And the faster the Everlasting Creation Divine Skill will advance?"

"In this world, there is actually such a strange thing, a cultivation method that so perfectly aligns with my intentions!"

"Even without such a cultivation method, I would still kill these scoundrels! It's just putting them to good use..."

The night was deep.

Yun Yang tidied up and disappeared into the night.

That so-called Green Snake Gang actually has such a heartless scoundrel like Wang Bao. I'll go and see what kind of people this Green Snake Gang really is.

If they are all of the same ilk, then I will have to do a thorough job and cut off the roots. At the same time, provide some nourishment for the Everlasting Creation Lotus...

...

In the headquarters of the Green Snake Gang, there were still seven or eight people sitting, discussing something.

Under the dim yellow light, their faces all looked fierce and terrifying.

The so-called headquarters was just an abandoned courtyard, occupied by this gang of ruffians.

"Now that the war has just ended, the country will certainly take special care of the soldiers, distributing compensation silver. This is a huge amount of unexpected wealth," Green Snake's scar on his face twitched. "We can't rob those who are strong and skilled in martial arts, but just like before, we can rob those who are disabled on the battlefield... Can we not rob a few disabled people? This money is practically given to us by the empire!"

The eyes of the ruffians all lit up.

They had done this many times before; it was indeed simple and easy!

"These disabled soldiers have all received a large sum of silver to take home..." Green Snake's saliva was almost dripping. "According to my information, the compensation for this year is due to arrive in the next few days... Once they receive this money, it will be our time to act."

"Big Brother is truly far-sighted." The ruffians all showed a greedy look. Indeed, robbing a few disabled people, what's so difficult? Especially those who have lost their legs... they can't even chase us!

This plan is really too good...

"Li San, go and check how many there are in your area; Doutu, Sun Wu, you all go and check as well. When we start the operation, we will exchange territories, you do his, he does yours, so it won't easily arouse suspicion."

Green Snake commanded with confidence.

"Right, we brothers are about to become rich!" The ruffians all had a gleam in their eyes.

"Why hasn't that bastard Wang Bao come yet?" Green Snake said unhappily. "At such an important time, he's still out fooling around. That bastard will die on a woman's belly sooner or later."

Bang!

A loud noise.

The door suddenly shattered completely, and a black-clad figure appeared, like a ghost walking in the night, slowly walking in.

In his hand, a knife glinted coldly.

Green Snake and the others were greatly shocked and jumped up at the same time: "Who are you? You damn thing, to dare come and cause trouble for Grandpa, do you want to die?!"

Yun Yang had only been there for a short while, but after hearing Green Snake's final few words, he could no longer bear it.

Fighting for the country and becoming disabled, these scoundrels not only lack respect and gratitude, but they are even thinking of robbing the disabled soldiers! Such scum is truly intolerable by heaven and earth!

He directly rushed in.

"Capture him!"

Green Snake roared.

At the door, two ruffians shouted and pounced.

Yun Yang said nothing, taking steps forward, his gaze cold.

The two ruffians were already in front of him. Yun Yang's lips curled cruelly.

A flash of the knife.

Two heads suddenly flew up, two round blood columns spurted from their necks. Yun Yang kicked the two headless bodies aside with a thud, and continued walking silently.

With each step, Green Snake felt death drawing closer.

His face turned pale with fear, and the five or six people around him were all trembling, looking at the black-clad figure with fear.

Who is this person, so cruel?!

He came in and started killing, not even saying a word.

"Who are you? Who are you?" Green Snake was terrified, retreating in a panic: "Hero, let's talk it out... I... I don't know where I offended you..."

Yun Yang walked silently, his gaze cold. The murderous aura in the air grew thicker with each step he took, almost solidifying.

The two ruffians at the door were terrified, one of them turned to run.

A bright knife flashed in the air again, and the heads of the two ruffians who were running were flying, their bodies still running three steps before falling to the ground.

Green Snake was so scared that he lost control of his bowels and bladder, trembling like a sieve: "Hero... Hero... What... What is this all about... Who are you? This... This is all for what reason..."

Yun Yang remained silent, walking forward without a word, the short knife in his hand dripping with blood.

Thud, thud, thud...

This was the sound of the blood on the blade dripping down.

It was like the summons of the King of Hell, making it hard to breathe.

The three remaining ruffians in the room screamed in fear and suddenly knelt down: "Hero, spare my life... Hero, spare my life... I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child..."

Yun Yang's face was cold, unmoved, and the knife in his hand fell with a swish.

Three heads rolled out like overturned melons.

In the room, only Green Snake was left.

Yun Yang had been killing from the moment he entered, without a word, without a break, already killing seven people. The so-called Green Snake Gang, according to the information Yun Yang had extracted, had only twelve people in total.

Including the four people who had already died at his hands, now, the people were all accounted for. The only one left alive was the Green Snake Gang leader, Green Snake.

Thud, thud...

Yun Yang's steps approached Green Snake.

Green Snake collapsed on the ground, terrified. He couldn't imagine when or how he had offended such a killing god?

Killing without saying a word from start to finish.

He saw Yun Yang's shoes already in front of him, knowing he had no chance of survival. At this moment, Green Snake suddenly became hysterical.

Yun Yang's knife was already raised.

"Wait!" Green Snake shouted in anger: "This... This is the city of Tang, where there is law! Although we are not good people, our crimes do not warrant death according to the law! You, you draw your knife to kill, are you not afraid of the law?"

The law?

Yun Yang's eyes flickered, his face indifferent.

He raised the knife in his hand.

Green Snake's tears flowed: "You... You want to kill, you want to kill me, but... can't you give me a reason? This... This is why?!"

"Why?" Yun Yang paused, saying calmly: "Do you have a subordinate named Wang Bao?"

Green Snake's eyes widened, almost bulging out: "Yes... there is..."

"Right, Wang Bao bullied orphans and widows... So, I came to see if others were the same."

Green Snake's body stiffened, his eyes filled with rage, almost solidifying, and he screamed in extreme injustice: "This... This Wang Bao bullied orphans and widows... so you come to kill me..."

Suddenly, he screamed hysterically: "... Then... Then what does it have to do with me..."

"I am wronged..."

Before he could finish, a cold light flashed, and Green Snake's head fell to the ground, rolling twice, his eyes staring up, his face filled with rage and frustration.

He never understood until his death, why should he be killed because Wang Bao bullied orphans and widows? What does it have to do with him?

Yun Yang wiped his knife on the bodies, put it away, and looked at the corpses on the ground, his eyes flashing with a cold light.

"The law... these scoundrels actually talked to me about the law."

Yun Yang muttered: "In times of national crisis, such internal troublemakers, who have no conscience, may not deserve death according to the law, but bullying and harming disabled soldiers should be punished! Must be punished!"

"You are right, there is law in this city; according to the law, you do not deserve death! The law will not kill you, but I will!"

Yun Yang turned indifferently, about to leave.

But suddenly, he felt several strange forces in the world rush into his body.

His sea of consciousness trembled, and Yun Yang was surprised to find that the small sprout of the Everlasting Creation Lotus was growing rapidly in the swaying...

"Ten evils cannot be tolerated, one knife to eliminate them, absorbing the unjust aura of the world, one leaf of the Creation Golden Lotus is formed."
