The 67th: There is something to be done and something not to be done.

  Ximen Qing had always been hostile to evil, and in the face of such behavior that treated people like dogs, he would have liked to kill Hao Jian and others on the spot. However, Ximen Qing was not a hot-blooded person who would act blindly. Since someone was protecting Hao Jian, then so be it, Ximen Qing would spare him for now and wait for another day to take action.

  Ximen Qing thought it would be easy to kill someone.

  However, not killing him doesn't mean Ximen Qing won't take action to teach him a lesson. Since he's so inhumane, then Ximen Qing won't mind beating him into a pig head, letting him know what real suffering is!

  Ximen Qing took a step forward and grasped Hao Jian's neck with a cold smile. With his innate divine strength, which could knock down a mad horse with one arm, Ximen Qing easily lifted Hao Jian up with one hand, as if he were lifting a struggling wolf. Hao Jian's face turned red, and he grabbed Ximen Qing's left hand with both hands, pulling and tugging in an attempt to pry open Ximen Qing's grip. At the same time, his legs kicked wildly, and his whole body convulsed.

  As Hao Jian's breathing difficulties worsened, his eyes turned bright red, and the veins on his face bulged like worms, quivering with the flow of blood. At the same time, the movements of his hands and feet slowed down significantly. The feeling of suffocation filled his brain, causing him to feel terrified, and a sense of death arose in his mind. At this moment, in Hao Jian's eyes, Ximen Qing had transformed into an evil demon ghost, grasping his neck and summoning his soul.

  Death was approaching step by step, Hao Jian was so scared that his lips were trembling, and he begged in a shaky voice: "Good man, good man... spare my life, spare my life! I dare not do anything anymore, please spare me, spare me..."

  Ximen Qing sneered and said: "How does it feel? Is it cool? Did you enjoy bullying the common people when walking your dog? Do you want to continue trying?"

  Hao Jian croaked with a hoarse voice: "I dare not, I'd rather die than dare!"

  "Is it?" Ximen Qing said: "Do you think I would believe you?"

  Ximen Qing immediately threw out his left hand and sent Hao Jian flying several meters away, again covering himself in dust. However, at this moment, Hao Jian could no longer care about sweeping; he sat panting heavily, clutching his neck and coughing repeatedly.

  It took a while for her to react and regain her composure. But when she looked at Ximen Qing, her eyes showed even more fear and apprehension.

  "Get out!" Ximen Qing shouted sternly, glaring at him.

  "Ah, oh!"

  Those rich young masters were frightened and immediately ran away. Zheng Da and the others also hurriedly helped Hao Jian up and fled in a hurry.

  "Hmph, just you wait! I'll go back and find you!" Ximen Qing thought to himself as he watched those people desperately running away.

  At this time, Song Jiang, Song Qing and Zi Xuan also walked over.

  Song Jiang burst out laughing, feeling extremely relieved and said: "Haha, Emperor Yi, you're really great! Refreshing, refreshing! These dogs are truly despicable!" After finishing speaking, Song Jiang sighed and said: "Alas, compared to Emperor Yi, I'm so weak. When my own people were being bullied, I could remain unmoved? I'm really despicable!"

  After finishing speaking, Song Jiang was so angry that he wanted to slap his own face, but was held back by Ximen Qing.

  "Good heavens, is this still a man's hand?" Holding the jade-like hand that was even softer than a woman's, Ximen Qing cursed inwardly, his body breaking out in goosebumps. Then an evil idea occurred to him: "Heh heh, I'll have to introduce Wu Song to Song Jiang later, no matter what!"

  Ximen Qing secretly smiled to himself for a while, then hurriedly suppressed this evil thought.

  "Brother Gongming, we all know what kind of person you are. Your good deeds in Yuncheng are plain to see. Who dares to slander you? I, Ximen Qing, won't let them off the hook! In fact, your heart is eager to help them, but reality forces you to hesitate. If my family were here, I'd probably be just like you. Now, I can scold Hao Jian without fear of him causing trouble for my family. But if my family were also in Yuncheng, today wouldn't have ended in such humiliation! Alright, Brother Gongming, don't blame yourself. Let's think about how to help these people instead. They can't return to Yuncheng and will have to wander elsewhere."

  You can punish the strong and eliminate evil, but you cannot harm your own family because of eliminating evil. Helping others in this way while harming your own family is not considered a good deed, but rather foolishness. Because you cannot even protect your own family, what face do you have to help them? Hao Jian, such a wealthy and noble young master, has powerful forces backing him up. If you randomly harm them, it's possible that your own family will be harmed at any time. Therefore, Song Jiang cannot take action, not one bit wrong. The mistake lies with Hao Jian having a formidable grandfather!

  Upon hearing Ximen Qing's words, Song Jiang nodded his head and smiled, saying: "It's good that you can understand my difficulties. However, seeing your actions today, I've come to a realization. From now on, if I encounter such situations again, I will definitely take the risk of destroying my family and killing Hao Jian, even if it means exterminating nine generations of his clan. As a person, there are things one must do and things one must not do. Can one just ignore their conscience and watch others get hurt because they're worried about their family? In the past, I've been too cautious and worried too much, causing many things to become regrets due to hesitation. This time when I return home, I'll invite the village head and several scribes to testify for me, then beg my father to write a certificate, removing me from the Song family and expelling me from our ancestral home, so that I'm no longer a member of the Song family! That way, if I do something wrong in the future, it won't implicate my family members. This way, I can also act with peace of mind and do what I want without worries. Hehe..."

  Song Qing suddenly became anxious and hastily said, "Big brother, this matter absolutely cannot happen. If you go to your ancestral home, after a hundred years, you won't even be able to enter the Song family's ancestral hall! Moreover, Father wouldn't agree either!"

  Song Jiang glared and said, "Shut up! I've made up my mind, I'll take care of things at our father's place myself!"

  He thought that Song Jiang was originally a sentimental person, and every time he saw Hao Jian oppressing the common people, he hated to kill him. But he could easily kill someone, but his own father, younger brother, and relatives would be implicated and killed. Although he didn't care about his own life, he couldn't not care about the lives of hundreds of people in the Song family! So all along, Song Jiang had only been helping people, rescuing them, and assisting them, but could not cut off the root of evil from the source. But today, Xi Menqing knew that Hao Jian's grandfather was Yang Jie, and still took the risk of being framed and punished to teach Hao Jian a lesson, which deeply moved Song Jiang, making his heart suddenly clear and transparent.

  Leaving the Song family and becoming a castaway of the family was not what he wanted. But this was the only way to protect the safety of the Song family.

  Seeing Song Jiang so determined, Song Qing suddenly became anxious and then said to Ximen Qing: "Brother, you quickly persuade Big Brother!"

  Ximen Qing laughed and said to Song Jiang: "Good, Brother Gongming, I support you, absolutely support you! Haha..."

  Song Qing was taken aback, angrily fell silent and stopped talking. He had thought that Ximen Qing could help persuade him, but who would have thought that not only did he not persuade, but also agreed, adding fuel to the fire!

  Song Jiang burst out laughing and slapped Ximen Qing's shoulder, saying: "Haha, great! Indeed my sworn brother! Refreshing, exhilarating!"

  Ximen Qing said: "Good, good, Brother Gongming, let's help them solve their troubles. After solving them, we'll go drinking together and not return until we're drunk. What do you think?"

  Ximen Qing pointed at the beggars sitting on the ground and asked.
