Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation

Silence. A deathly silence seemed to freeze the air, making everyone feel a bone-chilling shiver as their nervous gazes fell on Tang Zhiming's body floating on the water.

Someone finally reacted, "G-Go down and take a look."

A few people plunged into the water and dragged Tang Zhiming to the side of the swimming pool.

"Young Master Tang!"

"Young Master Tang!"

They shouted a few times, but he didn't respond at all.

The water surface returned to tranquilness under the gradually setting twilight, with the occasional ripples swaying on the surface.

Fallen tree leaves swirled gently at the poolside.

"H-He's dead…"

Although they had already realized it, everyone felt their heart thump faster after confirming it and felt stifled.

Tang Zhiming was dead!!!

Everyone gazed towards Jiang Xiu, feeling this person was too ruthless. He had drowned a person to death just because that person had pushed his woman into the water. They wondered whether he knew the identity of the person who died.

Cheng Lingsu was also left dazed. You are the one who humiliated me, and you're also the one who acted when I got humiliated. You are God, you are also the Devil. Just what do you want to do?

Jiang Xiu wore the same indifferent expression as always as if what happened was completely unrelated to him.

"Go change. We're leaving!"

Cheng Lingsu finally came back to her sense. She rushed towards the dressing room with a pale face and quickly changed again without taking a shower.

"You looked better in the swimsuit."

Jiang Xiu commented playfully.

"Are we going to let them leave like this?"

"Are you planning to stop him? Didn't you witness his ruthlessness? Young Master Tang had just teased his woman and got drowned to death in return. Let's report it to the police, okay?"

"This matter is too huge."

Ninghai City's No. 1 Young Master got killed. There was no doubt that Secretary Tang would go insane after learning about this. This was his only son!

Young Master Song said, "Xiaojun, who's that person? Let's report it to the police immediately."

"We can't let him escape."

Wu Xiaojun was utterly stupefied as he spoke while stuttering, "I-I'm not familiar with him and met him for the first time today like you. I only know he's called Jiang Xiu and that he came from Jiang City."

Cheng Lingsu's thoughts were a mess as she followed behind Jiang Xiu, "Why? You were the one who forced me to change into a swimsuit and let those people tease me, but why did you kill Young Master Tang when he humiliated me?"

"Tell me. Didn't you hate me? Weren't you hoping to ruin me?"

Jiang Xiu stopped walking and gazed at Cheng Lingsu. Her hair was still wet and face pale, but it couldn't hide her ethereal beauty. Her startled appearance like that of a little deer indeed provoked the tenderness of a man. "What do you think?"

Cheng Lingsu asked in return, "You are quite conflicted, right? You want to forgive me but aren't able to do it."

"That's why you torment me but don't allow others to persecute me."

Jiang Xiu didn't reply. He had to admit that Cheng Lingsu's words were partially correct, but that's just a part.

"You're too impulsive. It would've been fine if you just taught him a lesson."

"You shouldn't have killed him!"

"Hoh?"

Cheng Lingsu continued, "You're quite amazing now and powerful. Everyone calls you Mr. Jiang, but the Tang family isn't that easy to provoke. It's different from the Wang family. The Wang family is just an ancient family and has a base on martial arts, and you were able to triumph over them because you're good at it. In fact, the Wang family has neither background nor a patron, but the Tang family is different. They are a family with roots in officialdom. They will use the laws to handle you."

"So?" Jiang Xiu questioned.

"You are fearless, and they won't be able to do anything to you, but have you thought about Uncle and Aunt? They only have one son. If something happens to you, what will they do?"

Jiang Xiu laughed then continued to walk forwards, thinking that she would never understand what kind of existence he was.

Laws were created by the power holders to restrict those under them.

"Jiang Xiu…"

Cheng Lingsu chased after him with a scowl on her beautiful face. She wanted to say more but stopped as Jiang Xiu didn't seem like he was interested in listening to her.

…

Tang Zhengping was a 50-year-old man with a pudgy figure. He wore a smile across his face while having a meal at a hotel with others right now. All of them were singing praises for him, "Though it isn't decided whether you'll get a party position, it's set that you'll obtain the Deputy Governor seat."

"Getting a party position is just a matter of time with the Tang family as a patron."

"Let's congratulate Secretary Tang in advance for the promotion, we ought to call him Deputy Governor Tang now."

Tang Zhengping raised his wine glass, feeling pleased and was about to drink it when he received a call, "Hello!"

Secretary Tang, we have bad news. Young Master Tang was killed by someone in Song family's villa…" The one who spoke on the other end of the call was a 40-year-old man. He was the leader of Ninghai's police force, Ling Dongcheng, and had personally set out as this case involved Secretary Tang's only son. He was standing beside the dead body right now. Officers were going through the place and noting down observations.

"What?"

The wine glass in his cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces, wine spilling all over the floor. Tang Zhengping stood up, his face going pale.

"He was drowned to death."

Tang Zhengping felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground, feeling a heart-wrenching pain, "Zhiming, you fool. How can you act so foolish? You should've known what's your status. How could you argue with those common people?"

His son was gone now.

"Secretary Tang, take care of your body."

Tang Zhengping felt as if he had grown older. Fury overcame him, "Who was it? Which bastard dared to move against my son?"

"A person from Jiang City, it's a 20-year-old man called Jiang Xiu."

"Catch him!"

"Yes, we have already blocked all the major roads. We shall arrest the murdered as soon as we have him in sight." Ling Dongcheng paused for a moment, "We've already sent people to watch his parents in Jiang City."

They surmised that he would contact the people at home before fleeing.

…

"Excuse me, is this Jiang Xiu's home?"

Two police officers arrived at the fruit store. From their hurried expressions, it could be made out that they had rushed over here. Lin Yueling and Jiang Yi were both here and were discussing Jiang Xiu's future studies. They decided that they wouldn't allow Jiang Xiu to go to the Imperial Capital and would persist on it even if he disagreed.

"Yes, did something happen, Officer?" Lin Yueling asked, feeling astonished. Anyone would have a bad premonition of the police dropped in at their home.

Jiang Yi also feared the police as he had spent time in jail.

"Who are you to Jiang Xiu?"

"We are his parents." Lin Yueling replied.

The officer's expression changed after hearing this, "Your son has broken the law and committed a murder. You are to come to Ninghai with us and assist us in the investigation."

"WHAT?!" Lin Yueling and Jiang Yi both shouted in alarm.

"That's impossible. My son's quite well-behaved and is also the topper of the college entrance exam. How could he kill someone?" Lin Yueling rushed to explain with a pale face."

"We have facts and more than 20 witnesses who were on the scene. They all witnessed him commit the murder. I request you to come with us."

Jiang Yi, who was silent until now finally spoke, "Why would my son kill someone without any reason?"

"His female companion was pushed into the swimming pool by someone, so he drowned the perpetrator to death cruelly."

"Aaah?"

Lin Yueling's body froze, almost losing strength. She wasn't ready to believe this, but after the officer mentioned the female companion, she guessed that it must have been Susu. She felt that her son lost control due to Susu getting insulted.

Tears flowed down her cheeks. She had only one son.

She felt as if she was reliving the moment from a decade ago.

The police officer continued, "Your son is indeed too daring. Do you know who he killed? It's the only son of the Ninghai City's Secretary Tang, Young Master Tang Zhiming."

"What?! Tang Zhengping's son?"

The husband and wife asked simultaneously. They realized that this matter isn't so simple.

"Does our son… know about the matter?" Lin Yueling asked.

"Did he want to take revenge for me?" Jiang Yi pondered.

"Foolish son!"

Lin Yueling cried bitterly in Jiang Yi's embrace, "Jiang Yi, what should we do now? We have to think of some means to save Little Xiu. He's our only son."

Jiang Yi made a grace face. "We can't do anything like this. Otherwise, let me make a call."

Lin Yueling raised her head, "Are you going to make a call to Jiang family?"
