After hearing what Tian Thirteen said, Shen Lang laughed. “Brother Thirteen, do you want to sleep with me?”

Tian Thirteen said, “Two more days! If we don’t get 1000 gold coins, your whole family will be killed.”

Then, he walked out straightaway.

Shen Lang laid comfortably on his bed. His house was extremely rundown, and some areas of the roof were leaking. But, his parents and his brother still lived in a room while Shen Lang had a place to himself.

Moreover, his bed was huge and soft. The thin blanket was new, too.

His family was destitute, but he had the best things for himself.

The families in the countryside were poor, and many children did not have new clothes to wear for the new year. Shen Lang’s family was even more miserable. However, he had three new sets of clothes every year. No matter how bad their family condition was, his parents would give him everything to the best of their abilities. 1

One new set for summer, one for autumn, and one for the new year.

Meanwhile, Shen Jian did not have any new clothes. He wore Shen Lang’s old clothes.

He could not figure out why his parents treated him like this. Why were they so biased toward him? It didn’t make sense at all.

His brother, Shen Jian, was a good-for-nothing brat who stirred troubles outside every day. However, compared to Shen Lang, he was already outstanding. Apart from his good looks, Shen Lang was utterly useless. If Shen Lang did not transmigrate from Earth, the moron Shen Lang would not have been able to fend for himself. He would have needed his parents to take care of him until they passed away before his brother took over.

“Useless Shen Lang, I shall repay your favor to your parents and your brother. I will use the rest of my life to repay this favor.”

Shen Lang vowed. He would definitely make sure his parents would lead a good life. He would help his brother get a good wife and start a family.

However, the most urgent thing now was to get through the crisis!

Tian Heng gave him three days to get 1000 gold coins. Now, he only had two days left.

Once the time was up, if Shen Lang could produce 1000 gold coins, what would happen? 1

Tian Heng would kill his family. Tian Heng meant it too.

Was it possible for him to earn 1000 gold coins in two days?

The next morning, Shen Lang brewed medicine for his father and brother when he woke up. Then, he washed up and ate breakfast.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

Someone knocked on their door. Shen Lang’s mother looked uneasy and wanted to open the door.

“I will go,” said Shen Lang.

He opened the door. It was indeed Thirteen and Fourteen, the followers of Tian Heng.

“Time is tight, go and earn money now,” said Tian Thirteen in a straightforward manner. His tone was still very calm.

“Shen Lang, what’s wrong?” asked Shen Lang’s mother.

“Mother, nothing much, they’re my friends,” said Shen Lang.

His mother said warmly, “If they’re your friends, then they should come in and drink some porridge.”

Tian Thirteen smiled. “It’s alright, we have already eaten. Thank you, auntie.”

His smile was very warm, and nobody could tell that he was a criminal. He looked like a good chap.

Shen Lang finished his porridge calmly, and his mother gave him an egg and said, “Eat this too.”

He automatically wanted to pass the egg to his father.

“Eat it now.” His mother said before peeling another egg and gave his father and brother half each.

“Alright, I will eat it,” said Shen Lang.

After seeing Shen Lang finished his egg, his mother smiled.

“Mother, I will be going to the city with my friends. A very impressive mister came to school today,” said Shen Lang.

His mother immediately panicked and asked, “Shen Lang, will you be eating lunch at home?”

Shen Lang said, “I will not be able to rush home in time for lunch. I will try my best to come home for dinner.”

Tian Thirteen said warmly, “Auntie, my house is in the city. I will make sure Shen Lang eats his lunch.”

Shen Lang’s mother said, “Then I shall trouble you! In the future, I will cook eggs for you if you drop by.”

“Sure.” Tian Thirteen smiled even more earnestly.

Then, Shen Lang left home to earn money. Tian Thirteen and Tian Fourteen followed closely behind him.

1000 gold coins was an astronomical amount to his family.

…

Four hours later, Shen Lang had walked more than 30 miles and was about to Xuanwu City.

At this moment, there were two men in front of them, walking while quarreling angrily. They should be a pair of father and son. The father was over 40 years old, while the son was about 20 years old.

Tian Thirteen stepped forward and greeted warmly, “Uncle Li, Brother Dalu, long time no see!”

Both of them stood quietly and became awkward when they saw Tian Thirteen. However, they immediately smiled and said, “Oh, it’s you, Thirteen. It has been so long.”

Tian Thirteen said warmly, “Uncle, why aren’t you visiting us anymore? My father misses you and was asking about why you haven’t been visiting him anymore. Although you owe us some money, don’t let this affect our relationship. You and my father are like brothers.”

The middle-aged man said, “I will go tomorrow, tomorrow.”

Tian Thirteen went forward and walked toward the end of the farmland at the side of the road before entering the forest.

“Uncle, you haven’t been to my house for a long time. The wine my father made had already spoiled. He instructed me to send some meat to your house, and I bumped into you on the way!”

Tian Thirteen’s tone was even friendlier when he entered the forest with the pair. He acted as though they were his relatives.

“Oh, by the way, uncle!” Tian Thirteen said to the middle-aged man, “My dad said that you don’t have to return the money you owe us.”

The middle-aged man said, “That would be so nice of you…”

Tian Thirteen said, “You have been my dad’s friend for more than ten years and are like brothers, the money is nothing compared to your friendship. When I was young, I went to your house for meals often too.”

The middle-aged man said, “Then I shall sever a pig’s head and send it to your house. We can drink together.”

“Sure…” said Tian Thirteen.

Then, he whipped out his knife.

Stab…

Like a bolt of lightning, he stabbed the hearts of the father and son. It was so quick that Shen Lang did not even catch it. 1

They died without any groans. After a long while, blood started to spurt out from the wound.

“Fourteen, tell our brothers to deal with these bodies,” said Tian Thirteen.

Tian Fourteen replied, “Yes, brother!”

Tian Thirteen cleaned the knife with his silk cloth and placed it back into his pocket. He looked carefully at his body and sleeves to make sure that there was no bloodstain before saying to Shen Lang, “Sorry, I met someone I knew and got delayed. Let’s continue walking.”

“Sure,” said Shen Lang.

From the start to the end, Tian Thirteen’s expression did not change. He smiled all along, even when he killed.

Both of them continued rushing toward Xuanwu city.

Shen Lang suddenly asked, “Tian Thirteen, was the middle-aged man your uncle?”

Tian Thirteen nodded and said, “Yes, he escaped from a crisis with my dad. We knew each other for more than ten years. He carried me very often when I was young.”

Shen Lang asked, “How much money did he owe you?”

“Three gold coins. Because we are close, I charged him with a lower interest. After the interest, he owes me 25 gold coins,” said Tian Thirteen, “he is unable to repay us. Both of them went to the gambling den yesterday and owed a few more coins.”

Tian Thirteen killed the father and son without hesitation because of 25 gold coins. Moreover, they knew each other for more than ten years.

… And Shen Lang owed 1000 gold coins.

Tian Thirteen said, “Shen Lang, I know you are just trying to delay time. You can’t earn 1000 gold coins within two days. So, if you tell me now that you can’t do it, I will kill you immediately. Don’t waste two days of my time, how about that?”

Then, he took out his sharp knife and wiped it over and over. If Shen Lang nodded, he would kill him with the fastest speed possible.

1000 gold coins could be the lifetime savings of hundreds of families. It was a considerable amount. It was an impossible task for a poor brat like Shen Lang to earn 1000 gold coins within two days.

Shen Lang looked at Tian Thirteen and said earnestly, “I don’t need two days. I can do it today!”

Tian Thirteen was astonished. “Are you serious?”

Shen Lang said, “Within three hours, I can earn 1000 gold coins.”

Tian Thirteen widened his eyes and exclaimed, “Three hours?”

He could not believe it.

Shen Lang said, “Yes, three hours.”

…

Shen Lang and Tian Thirteen entered Xuanwu City.

Xuanwu City was one of the eight cities in Nujiang County. There were 25 towns, and the population was over 250,000. There were more than 30,000 residents in the city itself.

Shen Lang realized that the gates of Xuanwu City were over 12 meters in height, and its circumference was almost 5000 meters.

In ancient China, most leading cities did not even have a city gate that was 12 meters in height. This showed that the standard of martial arts in this world surpassed that of ancient China. Therefore, they needed a taller city gate to defend themselves.

Most of the soldiers at the gates were wearing leather armor. The commanders were wearing steel armor. There were several hundred of them.

When they entered the city, the streets became crowded, and there were many stalls. It was busier than what Shen Lang had imagined it to be.

Shen Lang stopped in front of a three-story building. The banner of the building wrote “Silk Pavilion.”

Not only did he want to earn a considerable sum of money here, but he also wanted to take revenge against the Xu family.

He took a deep breath and walked into the Silk Pavilion.
