The Bad Guys: I Paint Jianghu in Troubled Times

Chapter 22: Redemption

Chapter 123 From now on, I am your God!October 15th, Luoyang camp. The armor and equipment that Zhong Xiaokui had transferred from the Liang State Treasury finally arrived. "Everyone, line up for me! Lead them one by one!" Quinn stood in front of the camp with a whip in his hand to maintain order among the new recruits. Although these guys have not been trained yet, they are all adult men and can be a formidable force when they make trouble. Most of these new recruits are refugees, and many of them are ruthless and brave. After all, in this era, those who are not ruthless enough simply cannot survive! Quinn glanced at the entire army. Among the black mass of new recruits, there were some martial artists with fierce eyes. Not long after, Quinn saw a man who was six feet tall, with thick arms, broad shoulders, a full chest, and a look in his eyes that was different from those of the refugees. "wait." Quinn stretched out his hand to stop the man, and then shouted calmly: "You are not an ordinary citizen. Who are you? What's your name? Where do you live?" The man's expression froze, and then he fluently answered with his hands clasped, "Zhou Wei, a native of Luoyang, has a family of boxing and kicking skills inherited from ancestors, which are not worthy of your Excellency's attention." "Really?" Quinn narrowed his eyes. The look in this man's eyes just now was not like that of an ordinary martial artist. Although it was only for a moment, Quinn still captured it keenly. After all, to be a bad guy, eyesight is very important. Quinn has practiced for decades and is not comparable to the young man in front of him. "If you have nothing else to do, I will leave."

Zhou Wei gave Quinn a flattering smile, then prepared to retreat holding his armor, but at this moment, Quinn suddenly reached out to grab Zhou Wei. Almost instantly, Zhou Wei dodged sideways, and his subconscious instinctive reaction allowed him to avoid Quinn's grab. "You are indeed a soldier. You are dodging my claws by relying on your body's subconscious reaction. Tell me, who are you? If you tell me, I might consider sparing your life." Quinn crossed his arms and looked at Zhou Wei. Zhou Wei frowned for a while and then suddenly looked at Quinn and smiled: "Why are you like this, sir? Could it be that you think I have some strength and are afraid that I will take your position after joining the army, so you deliberately make things difficult for me?" As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding recruits started to make a fuss. They had disliked Quinn for a long time. Quinn had been training them like a dog since the first day. Now they finally had a chance to humiliate Quinn, and they couldn't wait for it. Quinn's expression changed. This Zhou Wei was indeed not a simple character. Even in the dangerous situation where he was exposed by him, he actually reacted quickly and came up with a countermeasure. "Good boy, you are so eloquent, I don't want to kill you anymore." Quinn sneered and took a step forward. Suddenly, the sand on the spot flew up, leaving a deep pit the size of a bowl. When the people around him could see clearly again, Quinn had already appeared in front of Zhou Wei. Quinn threw a punch, but saw Zhou Wei drop the armor in his hand and crossed his arms to block. With a bang, Zhou Wei took a step back and quickly raised his leg to kick. Quinn's face changed. This person's skill is actually at the middle star level? boom! Quinn raised his arm to block and threw another punch. Zhou Wei also punched back. Their fists collided, BOOM! "Haha, sir, your strength is really just this level!" Zhou Wei sneered, then used his inner strength to say: "Why don't you let me take over your position as deputy lieutenant!" At this time, several more voices appeared in the army, "Yes, military positions should be held by those with ability. Our brother Zhou Wei is stronger than you!" Quinn glanced around coldly and found that all the people who were talking were strong and sturdy. It seemed that Zhou Wei came prepared! While Quinn and Zhou Wei were fighting, Li Xingyun, Qin Yong and Qin Meng stood together on a high ground not far away. Li Xingyun crossed his arms and smiled, "There have been a lot of people being found recently. The whole Liang Kingdom has been making quite a stir. Have you found out the origins of this group of people?" Qin Yong bowed and said, "Your Highness, judging from their accents, these people are probably from Yanyun. Recently, King Liu Shouguang of Yan fled south, and the Yan army was also dispersed. Some Liang troops are trying to gather up the Yan army. I guess these people are probably the Yan army that could not escape, and now they heard that Luoyang is recruiting soldiers, so they plan to sneak in and make a comeback in Liang." "Make a comeback? Haha, hahahaha, what a bunch of rogue soldiers, they stick together wherever they go. If the person who recruited the soldiers was an incompetent, they would have succeeded." Li Xingyun put on the mask representing the Dark Star, pressed down the bamboo hat on his head, shrugged and said, "It's been a while since I last took part in any activities." At this time, in the circle formed, Zhou Wei and his group had already surrounded Quinn in the middle. As long as they made sure that Zhou Wei could defeat Quinn and gain reputation in the army, then they would naturally have a place here where fists speak. These guards were used to living on the edge of a knife, so they were very familiar with this kind of operation. Anyway, the military governors and even the princes of various places wanted people who could fight. As long as they were good enough, they would definitely have a meal. When Zhou Wei thought of this, a hint of ruthlessness suddenly flashed in his eyes. Liu Shouguang, whom they followed, had been completely defeated by Li Cunxu, and the Jin army was chasing them. Instead of being a prisoner, it would be better for him to come to Liang State and rejoin the army. With his strength, he could soon build a career here again! When Zhou Wei was imagining the future, he heard a burst of exclamations from all around, and the Yan deserters who had surrounded Quinn also retreated in panic. Zhou Wei seemed to have noticed something and slowly turned around, only to see a strange figure wearing leather armor, a mask on his face, and a hat behind him. Zhou Wei reacted quickly and immediately bowed and said, "Sir, I just wanted to have a sparring match with Lieutenant Quinn. I don't have any other intentions." "Hehehe, sir? Did I ask you to call me that?"

Li Xingyun put one hand on the Tang sword at his waist and patted Zhou Wei's shoulder with the other hand. He laughed and said, "Who gave you the courage to cause trouble in my military camp?" As the person in front of him locked his gaze, Zhou Wei felt a strong murderous intent! Zhou Wei suddenly felt as if he was falling into an icy cave. A deep sense of fear weighed heavily on his heart. It seemed that the man in front of him could easily kill him at any time. The intuition honed from experience in battlefields of all sizes allowed Zhou Wei to make the final decision of his life. "I don't want to die!" Zhou Wei shouted loudly and kicked Li Xingyun in the crotch. At the same time, he pulled out a flying knife from his waist and threw it at Li Xingyun. boom! A Qi shield with golden thunder appeared in front of everyone. Zhou Wei's leg kicked Li Xingyun's Qi shield, causing a bang. Zhou Wei's face turned pale instantly. This was a Heavenly Master! It's sizzling! The golden thunder immediately pierced Zhou Wei's heart and also entangled the group of Yan State deserters. The miserable screams and the stinky smell of barbecue immediately filled the entire recruit camp. In just a few breaths, several charred bodies lay in front of the camp. Li Xingyun clapped his hands calmly and said slowly and solemnly to the frightened recruits: "Listen to me, everyone. From now on, you don't need to submit to anyone other than me. Even if the Emperor of Liang, Zhu Youzhen, appears before you, you don't have to pay attention without my order. All you need to do is obey my orders! Remember my name, Tian Anxing. From now on, I am your sky!" (End of this chapter)
