The muscur man, upon hearing the words, was her hurried nry. His dark face, with a pair of distinct eyes, looked down at Jiang g from a high position.
Given Jiang g's height, he was seldom treated like this.
"Go open the door," Xiaomeng noticed something was wrong and threatened, pressing a wooden hairpin to the temple of the helpless bearded man, saying, "Hurry!"
The vilge chief and the others iionally or uionally moved closer, bringing the two groups to only a few meters apart.
"You try taking one more step forward," Jiang g tilted his head and warhe vilge chief's group, who were eager to act.
Unlike Xiaomeng's threat, Jiang g's warning had an immediate effect. The vilge chief and his panions immediately stopped moving.
Everyone's gaze subtly focused on the muscur man.
Jiang g lit half a dle on the dlestick with a match, holding it up, his meaning clear without needing words.
The man's height almost reached the ceiling. His dark face was shiny, but in the end, he did not act. Instead, he stepped fain, pg one hand on the gap and slowly pulling open the hidden door.
Just this a showed that the man had more strength than Jiang g.
"Step back!" Xiaomeng shouted.
The man looked at her and silently stepped back two paces.
Jiang g pulled the limp bearded man off the ground, using him as a shield and allowing Xiaomeng to go in and check first.
Once she entered, Jiang g dragged the bearded man and slowly moved towards the door.
At this point, the vilge chief and his group were no longer calm and slowly pressed forward.
Jiang g's situation was noard. To pull the bearded man through the hidden door, the door had to be opened wider, or the bearded man wouldn't fit.
But if he did that, he wouldn't be able to guarahat he could ehe door and close it before the muscur man acted.
That strange sense ency grew stronger. It felt like the iron door was about to colpse.
Li Lu had already returo the real world through the iron door.
And they had already guessed the fate of Yu Man.
"Quick, close the door!" Xiaomeng's voice came.
Jiang g stopped hesitating. He pushed the bearded man, who was ag as a hostage, toward the muscur man, then quickly dodged backward into the door, preparing to close it.
The e of as was pleted in an instant, but just as the door was about to close, a figure crashed in like a tank.
Although Jiang g repared, he was still knocked back two meters.
The force was enormous.
"Thud!"
A figure fell to the ground in the darkness with a pig-like scream.
It was the bearded man.
The t figure, nearly two meters tall, stood at the hidden door, seemingly uned with the bearded man. Instead, he used the bearded man's body to forcefully crash through.
The most aart was the position of the iron door.
It was right o the wall beside the hidden door.
The figure of the muscur man stood like an iron tower, his face obscured in the shadows.
This was bad.
Xiaomeng no longer hesitated and rushed toward the muscur man. She could already see the vilge chief and others, filled with murderous i, charging toward them. If they got i would be too te.
If that happened, Xiaomeng would resolve it first.
Taking advantage of the muscur mary into the dark enviro, and while his vision hadn't yet adjusted, she leapt high, intending to blind him with the wooden hairpin.
But she uimated the muscur man.
A gust of wind rushed at her. The muscur man raised his powerful arm while she was still in mid-air, his speed so fast it was a blur. In that instant, Xiaome her heart sink.
Jiang g couldn't save her in time and could only watch as she crashed into the muscur man's fist.
The se redictable: the fragile Xiaomeng would have at least ten bones broken with a single punch, before being thrown to the ground, her life unknown.
The bearded man, who had feigned death for a while, suddenly looked bright-eyed.
The sed...
"Shh!"
It was the sound of a sharp object pierg flesh.
Xiaomeng's attack hadn't missed. She stabbed the muscur man's palm hard with the wooden hairpin.
But the other side's fierce fist did not hit Xiaomeng's fragile body. At the st moment, it transformed into an open hand aly caught her mid-air.
Then, in her incredulous gaze, he slowly pced her down.
Hearing the rapid footsteps from outside the door, the muscur man forcefully smmed his back against the door. The hidden door made a "cck" sound and closed.
Xiaomeng stared at him like she was in a dream, seemingly trying to uand why he did that.
The man pulled the wooden hairpin from his hand, wiped it on his clothes, and ha back to Xiaomeng. He hadn't said a word since he was injured.
"Asumu!" The bearded man, witnessing all of this, was furious, cursing loudly, "You traitorous bastard, when you and your mother were down and out, who took pity on you and saved you! Who gave you food to eat!"
"It was my father! It was the vilge chief of Xiao Shijian Vilge!" He was furious, his face red, blood occasionally leaking from his previous wounds. "Is this how you repay him?! You—"
He stopped speaking there because Jiang g stepped forward and kicked his , sending it askew.
"You..." Xiaomeng raised her head and looked at the muscur man's face, as if trying to capture the answer she wanted.
"The vilge chief and his people... did not do well," the muscur man shook his head. His voice was hoarse, but his eyes were exceptionally clear.
He lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong.
"They shouldn’t have killed people," he paused, then added, "I’ve told him many times, but he didn’t listen. He ’t be wrong again."
"My mother said before she went to gsheng Tian that no matter what you do, it's a debt owed, and gsheng Tian remembers every debt. They will e to collect it."
TL/N: In ese culture and mythology, gsheng Tian refers to a divine or celestial realm, often associated with immortality, loy, or eternal life.
The iron door made its st buzzing sound, nearly dissipating.
Jiang g thought for a moment, pulled out an iron piece, and walked toward the trembling bearded man on the ground. The bearded man seemed to uand what Jiang g was about to do and desperately crawled toward the er.
But he was no match for Jiang g’s speed.
However, the muscur man stepped forward to stop him. He shook his head and said, "Please don't kill him. The vilge chief only has him as a so!"
Jiang g looked at him and asked, "Then what about you?"
The muscur man forted him with a shake of his head, raised a finger, poi the ceiling, and said, "gsheng Tian said everything is a debt, and it ’t be avoided."
The bearded man, whose jaw had been broken, suddenly made a muffled sound, seemingly agreeing with the muscur man's decision to spare his life.
Jiang g thought for a moment and said, "How about this, you turn around, and I'll stab him to death. You pretend you didn’t see anything. That way, the debt will be mine, and it won’t be your problem."
The bearded man froze for a few seds, the out a louder "woo woo" sound, struggling on the ground like a fish out of water, spping the floor.
