Chapter 16: Eliminating the Roots

"Not convinced?"

Cheng Jie said with a joking smile. He had average talent in Qi Refining, so he usually relied on pills to build up his Qi. He was weaker than the cultivators of the same level in terms of perception. In addition, Qin Jun and others were at a higher level than him, so he didn't know how terrifying Qin Jun and others were.

"Master... they don't seem easy to mess with..." A servant reminded cautiously in a low voice, but unfortunately he couldn't see through Qin Jun and others' cultivation, and only felt that they were very oppressive.

"Easy to mess with? Is there anyone in Qingtan City that I can't mess with?" Cheng Jie sneered. He was not brainless, and what he said was indeed the truth!

Today's Qingtan City can be said to be dominated by the Cheng family. Even the Chen family represented by the city lord has to swallow their anger, not to mention other small families.

Moreover, his every move now represents the attitude of the Cheng family. Cheng Zhan hopes to use his son's arrogance to promote the status of the Cheng family in Qingtan City.

In the Qianyue Kingdom, democracy is not as important as on Earth, and those in power rarely consider the ideas of the people.

"What a big tone!"

Chang Hao laughed. Qingtan City was like an ant in front of Xuanling Sect. The small Cheng family dared to be so rampant. Although Chang Hao was down and out now, he was incomparably glorious in Xuanling Sect.

He immediately walked towards Cheng Jie, intending to vent the oppression Qin Jun had put on him these days.

"Looking for death!"

When Cheng Jie saw Chang Hao dare to make a move, murderous intent immediately shot out of his eyes, and his right fist directly attacked Chang Hao's face.

It was an ordinary punch, but the speed was so fast that ordinary people had no time to dodge.

Chang Hao smiled disdainfully, raised his fist and hit Cheng Jie.

Crack——

The two fists hit each other, and the sound of broken bones followed, making people's scalps numb.

"Ah——"

Cheng Jie screamed, and retreated under the unbelievable expressions of all the customers and clerks in the inn, while Chang Hao stood there with a face full of disdain.

"You are so weak, yet you dare to act so arrogant!"

Chang Hao pouted, causing the other customers to applaud.

"Well done!"

"Haha, I've been upset with the Cheng family for a long time!"

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't let the Cheng family hold a grudge against you!"

"Yes, the Cheng family can do anything!"

The customers' words were like knives stabbing into Cheng Jie's heart, causing him to spit blood directly.

The young man in white sitting in the corner looked at Chang Hao in amazement, and murmured softly: "Ninth level of Qi Refining Realm, interesting."

Qin Jun started eating by himself, not bothering to pay attention to the fight between Chang Hao and Cheng Jie.

"Big Brother, good job!"

Chang Qianqian cheered, and at this moment, the image of Big Brother became taller in her heart again.

Daji supported her cheek with her bare hands and smiled sweetly, "Brother Chang Hao also has such a mighty side."

Qin Jun couldn't help but glance at her. This woman always spoke with a charming tone involuntarily, which tempted people to commit crimes!

"Come on! Kill him!"

Cheng Jie roared angrily. Because of the fracture of his right arm, he was sweating all over his face. The hatred in his eyes was chilling.

With an order, his servants rushed towards Chang Hao.

These servants generally had the cultivation of the third level of Qi Refining Realm, a total of twelve people. Because of his injury, Chang Hao could only exert the combat power of the sixth level of Qi Refining Realm at most, but he was still not embarrassed to deal with them.

"Hurry up and eat, we still have to hurry later!"

Qin Jun glared at Chang Qianqian and said in a low voice. In response, Chang Qianqian just rolled her eyes and didn't talk back.

In less than a minute, Chang Hao easily knocked down all of Cheng Jie's servants, and the strength he showed made the guests of the inn admire him.

"This young hero is so powerful, there must be a sect behind him!"

"Now, they are completely opposed to the Cheng family."

"They don't seem to be from Qingtan City?"

"Awesome, Cheng Jie's subordinates are all Qi-refining cultivators, but they are no match for this young hero!"

Hearing people around him calling him a young hero, Chang Hao laughed in high spirits, and his calm and confident temperament made many female customers flirt with him.

"Come and eat!" Qin Jun's voice suddenly reached Chang Hao's ears, and Chang Hao's face suddenly became unnatural, but he still honestly returned to the table and sat down.

"You wait for me!"

Cheng Jie gritted his teeth and cursed, and then turned around and left without caring about his servants lying on the ground.

"Ding! Trigger the side quest - Root out the Weeds!"

"Mission details: Kill Cheng Jie, reward 500 experience points; kill Cheng Zhan, reward 800 experience points; destroy the Cheng family, reward 2000 experience points, and get a chance to inherit skills!"

The system's prompt sound suddenly sounded, and Qin Jun was stunned. Can this trigger a side quest?

In his opinion, although Cheng Jie is arrogant and suicidal, he doesn't deserve the death penalty, right?

He even implicated the entire Cheng family!

Thinking of this, Qin Jun suddenly felt uncomfortable. He didn't want to be trained into a murderous demon by the myth system.

"All the tasks of the system are based on the growth of the host. The first main task is to make the host the emperor of Qianyue Kingdom, so Qingtan City has been defaulted by the system as the host's sphere of influence. According to the detection, the Cheng family has committed all kinds of evil in Qingtan City, and the people hate and fear them."

"Cheng Jie has already hated the host. When he returns, he will definitely bring stronger men to hunt down the host, and may even force out the head of the Cheng family."

"Whether for the people or for himself, the host must eradicate them!"

The voice of the system was extremely cold, but it made Qin Jun feel better. Then he raised the corners of his mouth and showed a mocking smile: "Cheng family, Cheng family, people do what the sky sees, don't think that you are the local tyrant of Qingtan City, you can do whatever you want..."

After the system's explanation, Qin Jun no longer had any grudges in his heart. From the discussions of the surrounding customers when Chang Hao and Cheng Jie were fighting just now, it can be known how bad the Cheng family's reputation in Qingtan City is.

In this case, let's cut the grass and root it out!

Seeing Qin Jun suddenly laugh, Chang Qianqian couldn't help but curl her lips and said, "How did you offend him?"

Daji and Chang Hao were also a little curious, of course they didn't care about Cheng Jie's harsh words.

Qin Jun simply told what happened last night, which made Chang Qianqian angry and said, "The guy who bullies the good and fears the evil deserves to be beaten!"

"I should have crippled his arms earlier!" Chang Hao sneered.

Is he addicted to pretending to be cool?

Qin Jun complained in his heart, but didn't say it out loud.

Soon, they finished breakfast, and Chang Hao paid the bill and walked out of the inn.

What made Qin Jun frown was that the young man in white also followed him out of the inn. Although he left in a different direction, Qin Jun always felt that he was targeting him and his group.

"The direction of the city gate is over there!"

Chang Qianqian pulled Qin Jun's sleeve to remind him, and Qin Jun shook his head and smiled: "Don't rush out of the city, I still have things to do."

"What's it?"

Daji and Chang Hao also looked at Qin Jun in confusion.

"Kill Cheng Jie and eradicate the Cheng family!" Qin Jun sneered, while he was also thinking about a battle plan. With Daji and Roaring Sky Dog, he could do whatever he wanted, but his goal was the throne, so he could use the Cheng family to increase his reputation!
