Condemning the Heavens Chapter 324

Chapter 324: 324
During this time, Xue Wei was cultivating casually without fearing about Old Man Bai appearing and causing problems for him .
At the same time, Murong Jing did not go home . Instead, he went towards another mansion in Treasure City, the family mansion of the Tang family .
The Tang family were not as highly ranked as the Murong family . However, they were not to be belittled as they also had an Earth Saint amongst their ranks .
Two Earth Saints against one single Ordinary Saint, this should be a line up which could not be defeated .
When Murong Jing made it to the Tang Mansion, the guards respectfully saluted him, before one of them led him towards the central hall of the family .
At this central hall, the entire family's higher-ups had gathered, all of them discussing something rather important .
As a family leader himself, Murong Jing was capable of guessing that the subject they were talking about was Xue Wei and the two-colored rainbow pills .
When they announced his arrival, Murong Jing was quite shrewd . He had told the guard to announce that his arrival had something to do with the two-colored rainbow pills, and thus they instantly invited him into the hall .
When he entered, he saw that the entire older generation had gathered together, most of them frowning and unhappy .
The leader of the Tang family, Tang Julong, was seated in the center of the hall, and a slight bit of hope had appeared in his eyes when he looked at Murong Jing .
"I am here on behalf of the alchemist master Xue Wei," Murong Jing introduced . "I need Master Tang to do something together with me for him . When it has been done, master Xue will refine a two-colored rainbow pill for us both, provided we have the materials . "
Tang Julong's eyes widened in disbelief and then narrowed dangerously . "He needs us to do something for him?" he asked hesitatingly, and Murong Jing nodded his head . "As to what it is, I would need to discuss it with you in private," he said . He knew that the murder of Old Man Bai was somewhat controversial, but he could not do anything about it . This was the price to pay for a two-colored Rainbow Pill .
Muring Jing did not fear that Tang Julong would not agree to his offer . Tang Julong had a good relationship with him, and he knew which people he had connections to and not .
As to the fact that they would murder someone, that was no worry for either of them . They were pirates, and pirates were not pacifists .
"Everyone leave us . " Tang Julong understood the matter was sensitive, and thus they hesitatingly left . Many looked back with uncertainty and curiosity .
When the hall was emptied, Tang Julong slumped back into the seat and looked at Murong Jing .
"So old friend, tell me what is going on . "
Murong Jing quickly explained the situation that happened earlier that day at the square, followed by the deal he made with Xue Wei .
"I am aware that I can kill Old Man Bai on my own," Murong Jing sighed . "but that requires for him not to have any life-saving treasures, nor speed-enhancing techniques . If he has either of those, it could become troublesome to kill him . "
Tang Julong had not spoken while Murong Jing was talking . Instead, he was listening intently .
Closing his eyes for a moment, he was not too sure if he was doing the right thing . Xue Wei was an outsider while Old Man Bai was a resident of Treasure Island, but the allure of the two-colored Rainbow Pill was simply immense .
Sighing, he nodded his head . "Let us set out," he said resigned . He had made his decision . Old Man Bai was notorious for his temper; he had killed multiple experts on Treasure Island before just because they did not see eye to eye with him, so he could consider it doing a good deed .
When they exited the hall, they were found by a group of Tang family members . Looking at their faces filled with expectations, Tang Julong knew he had made the right decision .
Although one two-colored Rainbow Pill sounded like very little as only one person could consume it, it was maybe their only chance for Tang Julong to break into a higher layer of his rank, which would result in a higher position on Treasure Island .
Refining more than one pill was not something they would expect . They simply did not have the resources to provide more than two sets of ingredients, and although there was a small chance of them getting two pills, there was also a chance of getting zero .
This was a gamble, but they felt it worth it . "Find two sets of ingredients," Tang Julong said to the supreme elder of the family . "When I return home, we will send them to great master Xue, and he will refine pills for us . "
The eyes of everyone were filled with excitement . To think that Murong Jing had appeared with a chance for them to get their hands on a two-colored Rainbow Pill was completely unexpected, but it was making them very excited .
Tang Julong and Murong Jing left the mansion and started scanning the entire island for any lead for where Old Man Bai might be .
They quickly located him in a small village at the outskirts of Treasure Island .
This village was filled with fishermen and farmers . They were not pirates . Instead, their jobs were to provide for the rest of the Treasure Island, so even though they were weak and looked down upon, people rarely touched them .
Old Man Bai, however, was in a foul mood, and he had gone to the island's villages where he had found a few people and killed them without a care .
His restaurant depended on these villagers, but he killed them within moments . He did not even care about which effect it might have on his own livelihood; all he wanted was to vent his frustrations .
The reason he unleashed his fury on the villagers was because of the rules of Treasure Island .
No one would participate in a dispute amongst people who lived on Treasure Island, so even if he killed them, no one would be able to stop him .
In the middle of Treasure City, it was impossible to tell if someone had connections with Earth Saints, which would cause him problems, so for self preservation, he killed the weakest .
Blood was flowing in rivers when his hatred finally seemed to be under control .
The entire village's walls were painted red and corpses were littered all over the street .
This was the sight that greeted Murong Jing and Tang Julong when they came looking for Old Man Bai .
Tang Julong, who had been hesitating whether or not to kill Old Man Bai, suddenly felt that it was for the better for him to die as soon as possible .
Murong Jing's eyes, which had been tranquil for a long time, were also filled with undisguised disdain and fury .
"Old Man Bai!" Murong Jing called out loud, and the man who had been drenched in blood, startled before he turned and looked at the two incoming experts .
His eyes flashed with surprise and confusion .
He instantly recognized Murong Jing and Tang Julong, but as to what their purpose was, he had no idea .
"Master Murong, Master Tang, what brings the two of you here?" he asked tentatively, and Murong Jing flew down and landed right next to him .
His face was no longer displaying any emotions, he seemed tranquil like a still lake, and his lips even carried a slight smile, so Old Man Bai could not feel even the slightest feeling of threat coming from him .
Tang Julong was not as capable of hiding his true emotions, but he stayed behind them, so Old Man Bai did not notice his expressions nor his killing intent .
"Old Man Bai, I need to speak with you," Murong Jing said smilingly as he stepped closer and closer to the older man, and when he was within range, his palm suddenly shot out .
Rock Shattering Palm Strike!
The technique that he was using was not the highest ranked technique he controlled, but it was the one with the most direct power .
A cracking noise resounded in the surroundings as the palm strike made contact with Old Man Bai's chest, breaking his ribcage with a single attack .
When Tang Julong saw that Murong Jing was attacking, he rushed forward with his movement technique, and he brandished his sword before he unleashed an attack .
Sky Shattering Clouds!
This attack was the strongest that Tang Julong could unleash, and the sword light shot in front of Tang Julong and landed on Old Man Bai's shoulder, cutting a deep gash into his flesh .
Old Man Bai's eyes were widened in horror when he saw how the two Earth Saints were attacking him, his hands were trembling in terror and he was backing away as fast as he could, however with the injuries he had sustained, his speed was heavily impacted .
Neither Murong Jing nor Tang Julong was willing to let go just like that, and they pressed forward, cornering Old Man Bai in a pincer attack .
One was wielding a sword, while the other was raining fist and palm attacks down on him .
He could only defend himself from the most deadly of the attacks, but the remaining ones were drawing blood, breaking bones and making him spit out blood which mixed with the blood from the farmers and fishers he had killed previously .
"Why are you doing this?!" he roared filled with indignation and hatred, but he got no answer . Neither Tang Julong nor Murong Bai was willing to tell him the truth . They had the mindset of killers right now, and they would end their jobs as fast as possible .
While they were able to dominate Old Man Bai and push him further and further back, the old man started using life-saving treasures one after another .
Never would anyone have expected that he was that rich, he had a whole bunch of protective talismans, inscriptions, and formations .
If they had not been two, then it was likely that he would have succeeded in his escape, but since they were two who constantly attacked him, he could only passively defend .
The loud sounds of battling reverberated through the village and the survivors had hidden far away .
Some experts within Treasure City could feel the fluctuations of energy and came to see what was going on; others were blissfully unaware .
Sensing that others were on their way, the face of Murong Jing and Tang Julong turned solemn . They knew that they had to hurry up, and both of them used their most prized attacks .
Thunderous Mentality Sword!
Fist of the Ancient Demon!
Both of them did not hold anything back, and finally, they managed to break through all the defenses shrouding Old Man Bai, their attacks cutting the remainder of his life short .
His final breath was filled with bitterness and unwillingness . His eyes did not close but stayed staring at Murong Jing with disbelief and venomous hatred .
"Let's get going," Murong Jing said, and Tang Julong nodded his head . The two of them turned into flashes of bright light and vanished into the distance before another person made it to the village .
Seeing the murder that had happened, he was stunned at first, but after questioning the survivors, he understood that it was Old Man Bai who had murdered wantonly and that two experts had arrived and killed him later .
As to what their reason was, no one knew, and who they were was also a mystery .
These villagers would never see the leaders of the major families within Treasure City, so it was impossible to guess their identity . Thus rumors said that it was two experts that came by and felt pity for the villagers, hence became the heroes saving the innocent .
