My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 171: Are You Threatening Me?

"Stop them!"

Meng Hongsheng was on the verge of going mad.

Turns out Yang Qi’s visit today was just to trick me into talking—how could I have been so stupid!

He absolutely could not let Yang Qi succeed. Otherwise, he was finished. In that video, he had said far too many things he shouldn’t have. Even if it couldn’t be used as evidence, his reputation would be ruined if it got out to the media. The Martial Artists Association would definitely not let him off.

The thought of the severe consequences made me want to die. I really underestimated Yang Qi. I thought a jobless vagrant like him, stripped of Lin Qingxuan’s help, would be completely powerless against me. But now it seems I was completely wrong. Utterly and completely wrong.

The bodyguards quickly stood at the door, blocking the path of Yang Qi and Wolf King.

Meng Hongsheng tried his best to calm himself, but his heart was still pounding wildly. He was at the Peak of his career. He couldn’t bear it if everything was ruined just like that.

"Kid, hand over the phone and delete the video. I can let you leave! Otherwise, I guarantee you’ll die here today!" Meng Hongsheng said coldly. "You probably don’t know how formidable my bodyguard is! He’s a true Martial Arts Master, far more formidable than Chen Tiequan. You won’t escape."

"Heh, you can try," Yang Qi said, shaking his phone. "However, I must state that I recorded that last scene as well."

"Kill him for me!"

Seeing that threats weren’t working, Meng Hongsheng issued the order.

The bodyguard lunged at Yang Qi in an instant. His punches were as swift as the wind, their sound like a crack of thunder.

This guy really is an expert. But to say he’s stronger than Chen Tiequan is a huge exaggeration. Meng Hongsheng probably thinks Chen Tiequan is weak just because I killed him.

"Wolf King!"

Yang Qi had no interest in dealing with this kind of trash himself. Wolf King immediately leaped forward to engage the opponent.

This is a good chance to train Wolf King.

The opponent’s Realm was higher, but Wolf King had more practical combat experience. The two were evenly matched at first, but as time went on, Wolf King’s advantage grew.

BANG!

With a loud crash, the bodyguard was sent flying, shattering the door. Wolf King pounced, continuing his assault without giving his opponent any chance to recover.

Seeing this, Meng Hongsheng’s heart sank to rock bottom. He realized force wasn’t going to solve the problem.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Yang Qi, just promise you won’t release that video! Name your conditions, whatever they are. I guarantee I’ll agree!"

"I’m afraid you can’t agree to my condition," Yang Qi chuckled.

"Just say it! I’ll definitely agree!" Meng Hongsheng pleaded. "As long as you delete the video, I guarantee you’ll win your trial at the Martial Artists Association and the Heavenly Supervision Hall!"

Yang Qi must be desperate to clear his name right now. And I’m exactly the person he needs most.

Yang Qi smiled. "Forget it, I don’t need your help. See you tomorrow. Oh, I almost forgot, you’ll probably be arrested tomorrow, so I guess we won’t be seeing each other after all!"

Just then, a scream echoed from outside. Wolf King walked back in. Though he was covered in injuries, his face bore a victor’s smile.

"Boss, I won!" Wolf King said excitedly.

I won my first battle against someone of a higher Realm. That feeling... it’s just too exhilarating.

"Good. Let’s go. We got what we came for. There’s no need to stay here any longer," Yang Qi nodded and turned to leave.

THUD!

Meng Hongsheng dropped to his knees before Yang Qi. "Yang Qi, I’m kneeling to you! I’m begging you! I can give you money. No, I’ll give you half of my entire fortune! Just please, spare me!"

"You should have thought about this day before you acted," Yang Qi said with a cold scoff before leaving with Wolf King.

Meng Hongsheng screamed in agony. His cries to the heavens went unanswered.

It’s over! It’s all really over!

Once outside, Yang Qi handed the evidence to Wolf King. "Give all this to Zhao Xiong. Both the Heavenly Supervision Hall and the city garrison are under his command. I think he’s the most suitable person to handle this." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Yes!" Wolf King nodded and disappeared into the night.

That night, Ye Qianqian couldn’t sleep at all. She was too worried about Yang Qi. But there were others suffering even more—namely Zhang Na and the hotel waiters who had committed perjury.

「At six in the morning.」

Vehicles from the Heavenly Supervision Hall arrived and took away all the waiters who had given false testimony. At this point, they actually felt a sense of relief, because they finally knew what their fate would be.

Zhang Na had spent the entire night shivering in a corner of her villa.

"No! Nothing will go wrong!" she mumbled to herself, as if trying to convince herself not to worry. "I still have Meng Hongsheng and Second Master Liang. With them protecting me, how could anything happen to me? It definitely won’t! So what if there’s video evidence? That Yang Qi has probably already been killed by now!"

What’s a mere Yang Qi? My backers are incredibly powerful.

However, the arrival of the Heavenly Supervision Hall shattered her beautiful daydream. She was taken away, screaming that she had been framed. She was filled with regret, but it was too late. One must always pay the price for wicked deeds.

That evening, Meng Hongsheng went to Liang Ergeng’s private residence to plead for help.

"Second Master, you can’t abandon me! I was completely tricked by that kid Yang Qi! I fell right into his trap!" he said in a panic. "And he has a terrifying bodyguard with him. If I’m not mistaken, it must be the leader of the Seventy-Two Wolves!"

"So what?" Liang Ergeng said with disdain. "This is the Liang Family’s residence. Even the Heavenly Supervision Hall and the Martial Artists Association have to consider the implications of acting here. Just hide, and you’ll be fine. A counsel for the Martial Artists Association, scared like this? How disgraceful."

"No, Second Master Liang! I just heard that the waiters we bribed and Ye Qianqian’s friend Zhang Na have all been arrested! I’m definitely next! You have to save me. Otherwise, I might say anything!" Meng Hongsheng said coldly.

"Are you threatening me?" A murderous glint appeared in Liang Ergeng’s eyes. "You’d better think carefully before you speak! Otherwise, I can’t guarantee what will become of you!"

"I... I was wrong! Second Master Liang, I was wrong!" Meng Hongsheng stammered, startled.

This isn’t the first day I’ve known Liang Ergeng. I know this guy is a madman who kills without batting an eye.

"Heh, you were wrong? Actually, you’ve just given me an idea! If you die, there’ll be no one left to testify. No transaction records or anything else could be traced back to me," Liang Ergeng sneered.

He suddenly charged at Meng Hongsheng, a dagger appearing in his hand as he viciously stabbed at the man’s abdomen. Meng Hongsheng was just an ordinary man. Even with only one arm, Liang Ergeng was still a Martial Artist, and a formidable one at that. The blade penetrated with ease.

One stab!

Two stabs...
