Chapter 148 - An Eye for an Eye, a Tooth for a Tooth (2)

Translated by Bloodfalcon, Edited by Krayto

“Gongyi, be careful!!!” Sun Ce is not a person who always underestimates an opponent like Jiang Qin. This is a veteran that challenged Jiang Qin. Sun Ce had enough veterans in his Jiangdong army to recognize one.

Even though they are all old like this general, their prowess and skills in the battlefield never diminished even a bit, so underestimating them will be a fatal mistake.

TL Note: Sorry, for being too late giving notes. Jiang Qin’s courtesy name is Gongyi

“Oh, Milord. Do not worry about me. I will kill this old fart, along with those 2,000 disgusting troops of that brat Liu Mang!!!” Jiang Qin replied toward Sun Ce and grabbed his broadsword. What he wanted the most was to enter Wancheng city and kill that Prince of Shu immediately.

“.....” Sun Ce just kept silent and thought “Maybe this veteran is a n.o.body in Lu Bu’s army, after all Lu Bu’s main force in Shucheng County, and not here.”

Huang Zhong also hits his horse to approach Jiang Qin. His attire right now is truly awe-inspiring. He is wearing dark-yellow armor and on his horseback, there is a longbow and on his back there is a gold curved dao. When he got closer, he asked “Are you Jiang Qin?”

“Correct, that is this grandpa's name!!! Old fart, remember this grandpa's face as I send you to h.e.l.l. Remember this grandpa's name Jiang Qin, Jiang Gongyi!!!” Jiang Qin said while sneering toward Huang Zhong. He thought “Heh, two generals in Lu Bu’s army. Easy win!!!”

“Oh, it is you!!!” Huang Zhong's face became colder and colder. Indeed he is old, but his actual age is only 38 years old. His old appearance is because he was always worried with Huang Xu, and this whippersnapper insulted him as an “old fart” making Huang Zhong angry. Adding the fact about the death of Su Fei, Huang Zhong's heart started emitting killing intent towards him.

“I have been a.s.signed by little lord to kill you!!! GIVE ME YOUR LIFE!!!” Huang Zhong squeezed his warhorse and started to charge toward Jiang Qin like an arrow.

“OH, OLD FART!!! YOU WANT TO DIE, I WILL BE HAPPY TO ACCOMODATE YOU!!!!” Exclaimed Jiang Qin while squeezing his warhorse to charge toward Huang Zhong.

“Clang!!!” A golden curved dao and a broadsword clashed in the air. But after clas.h.i.+ng, experts know that one needed to quickly pull out the weapon in order to make another swing, but this time Jiang Qin felt something after he did that first clash, there was another golden shadow slas.h.i.+ng his arm.

“Slas.h.!.+” Jiang Qin's left arm start oozing red blood. He was slashed quickly after that first clash.

“WHAT THE h.e.l.l?!” Jiang Qin exclaimed while their warhorses pa.s.sed through each other. He thought “How was I injured by this old fart?!” With the pain from his arm, Jiang Qin got angrier and exclaimed toward Huang Zhong “OLD FART, I WILL KILL YOU SLOWLY!!! I WILL MAKE YOU IN TO A “HUMAN SWINE” JUST LIKE SU FEI!!!” After exclaiming that, Jiang Qin quickly turned his warhorse and charged again toward Huang Zhong.

“TURN ME INTO A “HUMAN SWINE”?!” Huang Zhong's eyes narrowed burning with killing intent. Su Fei's final appearance is a memory that Huang Zhong wanted to disappear forever from his mind but he still remembered that this b.a.s.t.a.r.d is the one who turn him into “human swine”.

“Let's begin then, FIRST SKILL!!!!” Huang Zhong exclaimed toward Jiang Qin while preparing to clash again.

Two warhorses began approaching. Jiang Qin thought at that time, he had been careless and this time he will tell this old fart that he is not worthy to be in the battlefield. He is only fit to be in a nursery home, therefore proving this grandpa Jiang Qin is the most superior.

“Clang!!!” the golden curved dao and broadsword are clashed once more creating sparks. This time Jiang Qin must pressure Huang Zhong in order not to create any more gaps like earlier and also making this old fart tire with his strikes.

“GO DIE, DIE QUICKLY!!!!” Jiang Qin exclaimed loudly while adding more strength to his strikes.

”HUMPH!!!!” Huang Zhong humphed coldly. When Huang Zhong saw that Jiang Qin has increased his strength, he just deflected it easily to the side. Huang Zhong is using the principles of aikido, to use one’s strength against him.

“Beng!!!” Jiang Qin’s broadsword was thrown down by Huang Zhong’s deflection and lost his grip. Due to Jiang Qin’s strength being used against him, his broadsword continued its momentum stabbing the ground until its hilt was no longer seen.

“AAAHHHH!!!!” Jiang Qin screamed because after his broadsword had gone from his hand, that golden shadow appeared again and cutting Jiang Qin’s meat. That cut was so deep right that a lump of his arms flesh was sliced off.

“Hm?!” Sun Ce’s brow wrinkled. Deflecting such a strong attack by using curved dao? This kind of skill is actually very simple and was usually used by generals who are using spears and two-edged swords. But using a curved dao to counter like that? This veteran general is truly frightening.

A curved dao is a weapon that specializes in drawing the strength of its wielder. The wielder of this particular weapon usually relies on brute strength rather than technique. But that veteran just now, used a technique skill with a curved dao. If that is not frightening, then I do not know what is.

It’s like sniping with an automatic.

So, the conclusion is either this veteran only recently used a curved dao, or this veteran’s strength has received a certain level.

“How can this be?! This is impossible!!!” Sun Ce voiced his thought while shaking his head. He really thought that earlier Jiang Qin had been careless. Jiang Qin has the strength that almost broke through to super-cla.s.s generals, but that general can use a technique skill and even lift his golden curved dao with ease!!! Even Sun Ce himself is unable to do it. This degree, in Sun Ce’s eyes, only Lu Bu is able to achieve this veteran’s strength.

Sun Ce is a prideful guy because his strength is really strong. In Jiangdong’s army, only Tais.h.i.+ Ci is his match. Even Zhou Tai must go into a berserk state in order to fight Sun Ce at the same level. Now in front of him, that white-haired nameless veteran is stronger than him, will Sun Ce be able to accept that?

“Gongyi cannot drag this battle any longer, he needs to do a decisive bout” Sun Ce thought. Sun Ce has become a little anxious. He also had the idea to kill the enemy’s general in order to hit their morale, but because Jiang Qin is “toying” with this general, Jiang Qin received injury from two attacks.

Sun Ce then screamed his order “GONGYI, TAKE UP YOUR WEAPON AND KILL HIM NOW, FINISH THIS BATTLE IMMEDIATELY!!!”

“Yes, Milord!!!” Jiang Qin said that while pulling out his broadsword from ground. He is also very confused, this old fart, at a glance he is only a weak and feeble old man but Jiang Qin never expected that this veteran will be very strong.
