He was not some reckless person. He knew very well that if he reminded Jiang Pengji to be careful, it would remind the bandits as well and boost their confidence. The crazy nuts with big swords in their hands and a young boy with bare hands couldnt intimidate a person the same way.
However, even without Cheng Chengs reminder, after a bit of pause, the bandits came to the same realization. They were furious, but they suddenly began to feel some ecstasy.
Lets go all out! He is without a weapon! one of the bandits shouted and there was a flash of delight that appeared on their faces. It was the perfect chance! Their swords were craving blood!
There was no direct connection between someone who was a power level five and someone with or without a weapon. Jiang Pengji could kill them easier if she had the sword. At least they didnt have to suffer from pain and torture when they were killed. But since she didnt have a sword with her, it would turn into a cruel torture for them.
There were clean and the deep sounds of bones cracking; even Cheng Cheng and his wife could hear it clear out of range of the battle field. The viewers in the streaming room even heard the sound effects. The cutting-edge streaming equipment made them feel like they were present.
When each one of the bandits had his hand broken, his fingers snapped, his legs cracked, or his neck snapped, the viewers in the streaming room couldnt help but shiver. It seemed like they could feel the pain the bandits felt and they were startled.
Just because Jiang Pengji wasnt armed didnt mean she had lost her combat capabilities. On the contrary, unarmed combat was her strength. As a gene warrior, it was inevitable for her to train for unarmed combat.
What made her upset was that she had edited the script of her combat motions hundreds of times in her mind, but her body was too weak to catch up with her mind. Her body condition was way too weak for her to be satisfied.
Even though she wasnt pleased with her body, her combat motions were beyond incredible in the eyes of the viewers in the streaming room and the people watching.
She was truly a warrior that no one could withstand.
I wonder who this Langjun is He is such a valiant young man. Cheng Cheng twisted and felt his wound sting. The pain stung his nerves and he felt like there was a flame burning in his chest.
Cheng Chengs wife sighed. They were in a situation that they could barely keep their lives and they were still puzzled by the young mans identity. Could he be a friend or a foe?
Cheng Cheng saw his wife and noticed her worry. He closed his eyes slightly and shook his head at her, asking her not to worry.
Jiang Pengji hadnt spoken nicely to them earlier, but if she held malice towards them, then she wouldnt have to taken the risk of death and still cast her weapon to rescue them. She could absolutely let them be killed by the bandits, for it would have been more convenient.
Since she did rescue them, it proved that she had no intention of taking their lives.
At the same time, there was a noise like the sound coming from the bottom of the waterfall. Cheng Cheng and his wife looked at each other, but they only found the anxiety on each others face.
They looked over to where the noise came from and they saw several hands clinging onto the edge, and then some heads popped up.
Cheng Cheng gripped his sword in his hands and hesitated about whether he should approach and stab them before they came up entirely.
But what if the people were the young mans people instead of the members of the bandits?
Cheng Cheng was still debating, but it nearly scared the guards, who took a painstaking effort to climb up, into letting go.
Langjun! The guards who were struggling to climb earlier had gained a sudden burst of strengththey were like Popeye when he ate spinach. They climbed up in a short time and drew out the swords that were hidden at their waist. They had attempted to save Jiang Pengji from the dirt hole, but they barely had a chance to perform considering how fierce and powerful their Langjun was.
Ditching the last dead body on the ground, Jiang Pengji stood in the middle of the dead bodies with a cold face and looked at her guards quietly. Her guards, who were striving to climb up to this place, had nothing to say to her. There was somehow a sense of guilt visible on their faces. Their Langjun was at the frontline of the battle and his guards didnt assist him at all. It was absolutely humiliating.
Take more training once we get back. Jiang Pengji stared at her guards for so long that they felt small. All the guards refused to make eye contact with her because of the guilt.
How could they not feel guilty? It was not a lofty waterfall for them to climb over but it took them forever to arrive. Their speed was definitely unacceptable for Jiang Pengji. If she truly needed assistance from them, it would be very likely that she would have been a cold dead body right now. Therefore, all of them would need double or triple the amount of the training they had now.
Her guards all expressed a bitter smile but no one dared to say no to her order.
The guards clasped one hand in the other one in front of their chests and bowed at Jiang Pengji. Yes, Langjun.
Jiang Pengji was happy with their reaction and she gave them an order with a milder tone. Clean up the scene and pack up the dead bodies. Make sure you dig a pit and burn them fully.
The guards ground their teeth as they recognized how heartless their Langjun was.
Why was she so heartless? There was a saying that fallen leaves returned to the roots. Ground burial was the proper and trendy way in the current era. If the dead body had a missing limb, he would be physically disabled when he went to his afterlife. They would feel shame upon seeing their ancestors with a missing body part. Therefore, they took a great value in the ground burial of a complete body.
But Jiang Pengji decided their ending in their afterlife world with one simple order. These people wouldnt deserve to go to their afterlife world.
But there was one problem Which was worse? Having their bodies exposed in the wild and devoured by the wild animals, or being dead without a single whole piece so they wouldnt be able to go to the afterlife world?
Her guards were not going to argue with Jiang Pengji, so they followed her orders.
After giving all the orders, Jiang Pengji finally had time to pay attention to Cheng Cheng and his wife.
The guy was slim and tall. He had a mild and wise disposition. The first impression he gave to the other was that he was an approachable and amiable person. Jiang Pengji analyzed him from his hair to his toes and her eyes darkened.
Cheng Cheng had an odd feeling; he felt like something was eating him.
Jiang Pengji took a glance at the lady standing next to Cheng Cheng and asked one of the guards, Do you have meds on you? We should do something with this gentlemans wounds. They are not fatal, but they might cause trouble if we let him bleed out like this.
Yes, I do. The guards naturally carried medicine with him.
Thanks! Cheng Chengs wife took the medicine and bowed to Jiang Pengji to show appreciation.
Jiang Pengji sat beside them, a cold look on her face.
The others believed she was just pondering with a blank mind, but the truth was that she was checking the rewards she had received from the system.
System: Congratulations to our host for accomplishing the offhand triggered task: rescuing Cheng Cheng. You will receive a reward from the SystemPretty boobs and an hourglass figure that makes your clothes better. Please claim your reward from the inbox.
Arent you happy? she asked System silently.
The System sent her some ellipsis dots.
I behaved well this time and completed the mission you assigned to me. Jiang Pengji smiled but it wasnt genuine.
The System responded to her, I really appreciate that you finally understand my good intentions. But the System went silent right after instead of being wordy and noisy as usual.
Clearly, it was not happy. Jiang Pengji could picture the furious look of it.
You want to trick me? It will be a long journey before you can do that!
