A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 266 Mengting's Family Affairs

He asked himself this question, but the old man answered it for him.

"Because you are different from others."

He smiled wryly and said, "I am also a human being, a mortal with flesh and blood. It's just that my life experiences are a little different from others."

"Therefore, you were destined to be different."

He smiled and said, "Perhaps! Senior, can you answer a question for me?"

"Sure, go ahead and ask!"

He had wanted to ask this for a long time, but he didn't want to. Now, after thinking about it, he decided it was better to ask.

"Senior, all those so-called gods and immortals have kicked the bucket. Even if we become immortals, what's the point?"

"How is it meaningless? At the very least, once you become an immortal, you'll be an existence that lives as long as the heavens and is as renowned as the earth. Kid, don't you want that?"

"Of course I want to live as long as the heavens and be as famous as the earth."

"That's it."

"But... if such a day really comes, if you become an immortal, a god, won't you feel lonely? Facing a strange world all by yourself, a world without human habitation, a world in complete chaos."

"Kid, don't be so pessimistic. Once you truly become an immortal, you'll know the real benefits of it."

He smiled and said, "Maybe!"

Jinqiao Villa.

While Baihe and the others were meditating, Huang Mengting's phone suddenly vibrated in her pocket. She took it out, looked at it, quickly stood up, went to the balcony, and then slid the answer button, whispering to her ear, "Hello, Dad."

His father's anxious voice came through the phone: "Mengting! Your older brother..."

Huang Mengting frowned and asked, "Dad, did my eldest brother go out gambling again?"

"Yes, your older brother lost money gambling, and... he also borrowed money from loan sharks. Your older brother couldn't pay it back, so they... so..."

She was startled and moved: "What happened?"

"They cut off his hands and feet."

"What?" she exclaimed in horror.

The other person cried out, "Mengting, your older brother is probably not going to make it. Please come back and see him one last time!"

Huang Mengting was stunned for a moment, tears streaming down her face. It took her a while to react. She quickly wiped away her tears, but Baihe and the others were standing behind her. Baihe said, "Mengting, we'll go back with you."

Huang Mengting gave a shy smile and said, "No need, this is my family matter, I can handle it. Sister Baihe, please tell Bufan that I'm going home for a while."

Qianqian took her hand and said, "Mengting, since we are family, your business is our business. Come on, we'll go back with you."

"Qian, sob sob..."

She suddenly hugged Qianqian and burst into tears.

"Alright, let's go back quickly!"

"Then...if Bufan comes back and doesn't see us, he'll definitely be worried."

Li Wei said, "It's alright, we'll just leave a note for Bufan."

Huang Mengting's hometown is in City C of H Province, which is more than a thousand kilometers away from City S of G Province, but for cultivators, distance is not a problem.

In just the time it takes to eat a meal, Huang Mengting arrived at her doorstep.

At this moment, her family is immersed in endless grief, because her eldest brother, Huang Xuan, has just passed away.

Hearing the cries of her family, Huang Mengting's heart tightened; she knew almost immediately what had happened. She rushed into her eldest brother's room. When she saw him lying quietly on the bed, his face deathly pale, she couldn't help but burst into tears. Her father, mother, and second brother were also weeping bitterly.

She and her mother huddled together, sobbing uncontrollably.

Outside the door, Lily and the others saw this scene and burst into tears.

That's too tragic, too cruel.

The deceased's hands and feet were mercilessly severed, and his face was contorted in agony when he died.

"Mom, how could my brother... do this?"

Huang's mother was in tears, unable to accept the departure of her eldest son, and was sobbing uncontrollably.

Huang Mengting let go of her mother, turned around, grabbed her second brother's hand, and cried, "Second brother, who did this?"

Her second brother, Huang Xiongwu, wiped away his tears and said, "Third sister, eldest brother... eldest brother gambled away money and borrowed money from loan sharks..."

"I know, I'm asking you, who did this to my brother?"

"It's a person named Blackie."

"How much high-interest loan did my brother borrow?"

"My older brother borrowed 80,000 yuan at high interest last month, and they want him to pay back 200,000 yuan this month. My brother doesn't have the money, so they had someone kill him..."

Huang Mengting wiped away her tears, a fierce glint flashing in her eyes, and then said, "Second Brother, come out for a moment."

Upon entering the living room, Huang Mengting said, "Second Brother, do you know where this Blackie is now? I want to kill him as payment for Big Brother."

Although Huang Xiongwu looked dejected, he was startled when he heard Mengting's words and quickly said, "Third Sister, don't do anything rash. We can't beat Hei Pi. Hei Pi has dozens of men working for him."

Lily stepped forward and said, "Mengting, let us handle this matter!"

Huang Mengting grunted in agreement and said, "Second Brother, tell me Hei Pi's address."

"But……"

"It's alright, Second Brother. Just tell us the address of that black guy, and we'll know what to do," Qianqian said.

Huang Xiongwu glanced at his third sister Mengting and then said, "To be honest, I don't know where he lives. I only know that the 'Heaven on Earth' entertainment city belongs to him, and he often appears there."

Qianqian gently patted Mengting's shoulder and said, "Mengting, you stay at home to help with your brother's funeral arrangements. We'll handle Heipi. Don't worry, we'll bring Heipi's head to pay tribute to your brother's spirit in heaven."

Huang Mengting couldn't help but shed tears again, nodding and saying, "Yes, Sister Baihe, Qianqian, thank you!"

Lily smiled slightly and said, "We're family, it's alright."

It was exactly 9 p.m., and the "Heaven on Earth" entertainment center was located in a busy downtown area; you could easily find out where it was by asking around.

Heaven on Earth Entertainment City is a four-story entertainment venue. The first floor is an internet cafe, the second floor is a billiards and table tennis room, the third floor is an ice rink, and the fourth floor is filled with various game machines.

It also has a basement that looks like a karaoke bar, but that's just a front; it's actually a gambling den.

The exterior walls of this entertainment complex are covered with colorful LED lights, which are now flashing and dazzling, showcasing the complex's luxury and extravagance.

Lily and the others went directly to the underground level, which was more luxurious than the three levels above.

As soon as they appeared on the underground level, two brightly dressed, tattooed men approached them. One of them said, "Excuse me, gentlemen, this is a private area. You cannot come in."
