I Can See Through Everything

"Jiao Auntie, will they starve to death if we leave them hungry like this? We spent a lot of silver to buy these little girls. If even one dies, the heads of the house won't let us off."

In a somewhat dim room, a thug from the Happy Fort asked.

"Don't worry, I have experience. These girls are very stubborn. If we don't starve them until they're obedient, and grind away their rebelliousness, it will be troublesome when they start receiving guests and get temperamental, upsetting the customers."

The heavily made-up middle-aged woman screeched, "You guys are just inexperienced. Don't worry, they won't starve to death. These girls are just cheap bones. As long as they have some water to drink, they won't die even after a few days."

"Of course, who can compare to your extensive experience, Jiao Auntie? Everyone knows you were once the top courtesan of the Spring Moon Pavilion, naturally much more knowledgeable than us," the thug flattered.

"Yes, look at the girls in our fort. After your training, which one doesn't obey and listen? It's all thanks to you, Jiao Auntie," another thug chimed in with a fawning tone.

"Hehehe... you little ones sure know how to talk."

Jiao Auntie let out a piercing laugh, her whole body shaking, causing the makeup on her face to nearly fall off.

However, the next moment, the laugh came to an abrupt halt.

"Jiao Auntie, what's wrong?"

In the dimness, the two thugs hadn't realized what happened. Seeing her suddenly go silent, they asked in confusion.

Then, to their horror, they saw Jiao Auntie's body fly backward, crashing against the stone wall, blood splattering, rolling to the ground, life or death unknown.

Simultaneously, a figure emerged from behind Jiao Auntie.

"Who is it!"

The two thugs instantly knew that an enemy had infiltrated.

However, before they could react, the next moment, the blade flashed, slashing across their throats.

The two thugs who wanted to call for help could no longer make any sound, clutching their throats in terror as they fell to the ground.

Mouths gaping, trying to speak, but nothing came out. Blood flowed through their fingers, eyes gradually dimming.

The sudden change took everyone by surprise.

Except for the newly arrived girl who let out a scream, the others huddled in the corners, trembling and watching the scene in terror.

It seemed the recent harsh lessons had made them afraid to shout no matter what happened.

The girl quickly realized something, covering her mouth and not daring to make another sound.

After killing the three scoundrels, Lu Qing showed no sign of joy on his face.

With a near-night vision ability, he could clearly see the situation in the dim corner separated by the thick fence.

There were seven or eight girls chained with iron. Judging by their appearance, the oldest was no more than sixteen or seventeen, and the youngest was probably only eight or nine.

These girls, except for the newly captured one, were all disheveled, emaciated, looking neither human nor ghost.

Looking at these frightened girls, Lu Qing didn't know how to comfort them.

He could only say, "Stay here and don't move. I'll come back to rescue you in a while."

After saying this, Lu Qing walked out of the room and closed the door.

Standing outside, looking at the bright lights, Lu Qing's gaze was full of coldness.

Just killing three scoundrels hadn't eased his heart in the slightest. On the contrary, the killing intent in his heart was boiling even more.

The plight of the girls in the room made him think of how Han Lao Wu and his gang came to Jiuli Village today intending to capture Xiao Yan.

He couldn't imagine what would have happened if he didn't have some strength and Xiao Yan was captured and brought here.

"Xiao Li, can you sense where the strongest person in this fort is?"

After a long silence, Lu Qing asked calmly.

Xiao Li tilted its head and thought for a moment, then pointed in a direction.

Lu Qing looked and saw it was indeed the tallest and most prominent wooden building in the center of the fort.

"So it's there, huh?"

Lu Qing, holding his knife, slowly walked towards the tall wooden building.

This time, he no longer hid his figure. The burning killing intent in his chest made him no longer want to do any lurking.

What he needed now was to vent this boiling killing intent.

Activating his ability, Lu Qing walked straight towards the wooden building.

Suddenly, two men carrying lanterns and holding wooden sticks turned a corner and came into view, patrolling the area.

Seeing Lu Qing with a knife and a strange little beast on his shoulder, they were startled.

Immediately, one shouted, "Stop, who are you?"

Before the words finished, Lu Qing stepped forward, his figure flashing, and passed between the two men.

The next moment, two heads flew from behind him, and the two patrolling thugs from the Happy Fort fell to the ground, hands flailing.

Cutting down the two thugs with one blow, Lu Qing didn't look back and continued walking forward.

After several more steps, he saw a man walking from the direction of the wooden building, cursing under his breath about things like "bastard," "impossible," and "turn the tables."

When the man saw someone blocking his way, he looked up and cursed, "What the hell, get out of the way, can't you see I'm walking..."

Halfway through his curse, seeing the knife in Lu Qing's hand, he suddenly fell silent, like a duck with its neck grabbed.

Lu Qing looked at the man with the scarred head and remembered the conversation he overheard outside the fort earlier.

Without hesitation, he lightly swung his hand, and another head flew up.

The man with the scarred head was beheaded without even a chance to beg for mercy.

Avoiding the splattering blood, Lu Qing continued towards the wooden building.

By this time, he was already very close to the wooden building.

Two men holding knives and sticks guarded the large door at the base of the building.

Seeing this scene, they were shocked and ran towards him immediately.

"What are you doing!"

Seeing the two men running over, Lu Qing did not draw his knife this time.

Instead, he crouched slightly, and the next moment, his powerful blood qi erupted. His feet left two footprints on the hard ground as his body vanished from the spot, rushing towards the two men at high speed.

Then, when they were close, with two loud bangs, accompanied by a series of bone-cracking sounds, the two guards flew back even faster.

They crashed through the wooden building's door, causing a series of screams.

Amid the screams, Lu Qing walked into the wooden building. The little beast on his shoulder had already disappeared.

Inside, Lu Qing glanced around and quickly took in the scene.

The ground floor of the wooden building was very spacious.

It looked like a gambling hall, but the large table in the middle, covered with various gambling tools, was smashed to pieces by the bodies of the two guards he had kicked in. Coins and broken silver were scattered all over.

The various gamblers and scantily clad girls were panicking and hiding on both sides.

Seeing Lu Qing walk in, everyone couldn't help but look at him.

At this moment, a voice filled with anger came from above.

"Who dares cause trouble in my Happy Fort?!"

Lu Qing looked up, seeing several people walking out from the second floor, especially focusing on the tall figure leading them.

He suddenly grinned, "Naturally, it's someone here to kill you all!"
