My Father in Law is Lu Bu - Chapter 148

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 nobody 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 hell. 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 assigned 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 clashing, 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 slashing his arm.

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

“WHAT THE HELL?!” Jiang Qin exclaimed while their warhorses passed 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 bastard 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-class 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 Taishi 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.

Jiang Qin shook his head then thought “Hmm, maybe I have not yet recovered from Su Fei’s attack yesterday and that maybe my reason for being so weak today!”  But regardless, his lord already ordered, so he must end this battle quickly!!! Jiang Qin then exclaimed while showing killing intent “OLD FART, THIS JIANG QIN WILL SPARE YOU FROM A SLOW DEATH!!! I WILL TAKE YOUR HEAD NOW!!!!”

But Huang Zhong did not pay any attention to Jiang Qin’s words and exclaimed “SECOND SKILL!!!!”

“What? Second skill?!” Jiang Qin was stunned after hearing Huang Zhong’s words but quickly dismissed it. He said toward Huang Zhong “Hahaha, second skill? Is the second skill jerking yourself, old fart? Wahahahahahaha, give me your head, old fart. This grandpa Jiang Qin is in a good mood, so I will not cut you into a “human swine”!!!”

“SHAAAA!!!!”  Jiang Qin squeezed his horse again. This time Jiang Qin must quickly destroy him. Although Jiang Qin is a naval general, he is also not bad in ground warfare. Jiang Qin then raised his broadsword, his broadsword shining under sunlight sent out a cold aura.

Huang Zhong just kept silent and saw Jiang rushing towards him and just sneered.  Strangely, he just kept motionless as if waiting for Jiang Qin’s arrival, even his warhorse was just calmly eating grass.

“Hooo, old fart. So you know, you are dying, so you just stay silent there. 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!” Jiang Qin laughed loudly as if he already saw this old fart as a dead man. He quickly brandished his broadsword and aimed it toward Huang Zhong’s neck. “This old fart is going to die with this slash and these 2,000 troops will die by my divisions. Accompany my brother in hell, he is very lonely there!!!” thought Jiang Qin.

Jiang Qin getting near and nearer brandishing his broadsword, made a lot people scared of the outcome.

The most scared one is Liu Kai and quickly said to Liu Mang “This General Huang, why does he not move?!” He had not seen Huang Zhong’s prowess. When they were clearing the North and South gate, he had not seen this Old General Huang in action at all, only ordering the Urban Army and Liu Neng with his private soldiers to clean up those two places. “Why send such a feeble old man to battle?! Even if no general in Lu Bu’s army is available, no one will send a bearded old man to battle!!!”  Liu Kai lamented in his heart.

“This His Highness Prince of Shu is truly insane, sending a feeble old man to battle. These 2,000 troops and this city will accompany him to hell together!!!” Liu Kai lamented even. If he had joined with the Zhou clan, he will be beside Jiangdong’s army now fighting Lu Bu army. Now, the Liu clan is in cahoots for killing Zhou Cheng and Zhou Tai, when Sun Ce reclaims Wancheng city, it will be Liu clan’s turn to be exterminated.

Liu Mang just kept silent hearing Liu Kai inquiry. Huang Xu also remained silent. How can a pinnacle super-general fear a regular general? Even if Huang Zhong was faced with entire army by himself, he would not feel fear.

“Father, please calm yourself. There will be no harm to that Old General Huang!!!” Liu Neng comforted Liu Kai. Liu Kai kept thinking about the prosperity and how to prevent his Liu clan’s decadence but Liu Neng just kept thinking on how to follow Liu Mang and on how to become a trusted man in Liu Mang’s division. Liu Neng has placed his whole being in Liu Mang’s body and Lu Bu’s army. So with that, he can commit slaughter of other nobles easily because he had confided in them.

And plus, when Liu Neng observed Liu Mang and Huang Xu, they only displayed absolute confidence. But back again, if they did not display confidence in their expressions, the last thing that will await them is defeat and death, as all of the soldiers will be panic stricken.

“DIE!!!!” Jiang Qin finally arrived in front of Huang Zhong. Jiang Qin then exclaimed “Oh, old fart. I see you have feared this grandpa Jiang Qin. If you begged for mercy earlier, maybe this grandpa will spare your life. However now it is too late!”

“THIRD SKILL!!!” Huang Zhong exclaimed in deep voice again.

“THE HELL?!” Jiang Qin was stunned because that golden shadow was aiming towards him again. Jiang Qin who is late in responding to it suddenly felt his chest hurts and found out that his armor was rend into two and he even he fall down from his warhorse.

“I'LL KILL YOU, I'LL KILL YOU!!!!” Jiang Qin cursed Huang Zhong and continued to slash his broadsword. Jiang Qin truly felt a strange feeling from this old general who is able to quickly slash him so fast that his slash's movement only showed a golden shadow.

“FOURTH SKILL, FIFTH SKILL!!!!” With Huang Zhong exclamation, two golden shadow sliced Jiang Qin's body, dropping lumps of flesh each time a cut was made.

“AAHHHHHH!!!” Jiang Qin also tried to counter that skill, but during each countering, never in his imagination did he think that his body will be damaged. His warhorse also feared Huang Zhong, but was able to be controlled Jiang Qin by pressing the warhorse into a half-knelt state. With that, Jiang Qin's slash was also dampened by a lot.

“SIXTH SKILL, SEVENTH SKILL!!!!” 2 golden shadows came again from Huang Zhong

“It hurts, my body hurts so bad!!!” whimpered Jiang Qin. Jiang Qin was already unable to fight back anymore. His thigh, chest, arm were sliced was off one by one just like a chef cutting meat masterfully. There were many chances for this general to cut off his head, but he did not take it as if to say he was toying with him. Jiang Qin's heart was painted with fear from this veteran.

“DIE, DIE, DIE!!!!” Jiang Qin started swinging his broadsword in all directions, but none of those slashes came even an inch of Huang Zhong.

“Jiang Qin, RETURN!!!!” Sun Ce also saw the yellow-armored general skills. This Jiang Qin has been swinging his broadsword like madman due to fear and desperation, but every time he swung his broadsword, his blood splashed through the sky. Sun Ce's bad feeling finally came true, this general is even mightier than Sun Ce.

“WHO THE HELL IS HE, WHO?!” Sun Ce shook his head in disbelief. Sun Ce had seen Lu Bu’s subordinates, but only one person and that is Zang Ba. Sun Ce deduced that this Zang Ba has reached the super-class general but at the most, he is at Zhou Tai’s level. Even if he is the one who challenged Jiang Qin, it would be impossible for Jiang Qin to lose like this.

But now, Jiang Qin was toyed with by this general. Played like a prey before it is eaten.

This veteran is out of Jiang Qin's league.

Jiang Qin heard Sun Ce's shout, he also wanted to escape but was unable to leave. Every time he wanted to escape, that golden shadow always stopped him and sliced off a part of him.

“AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!” Jiang Qin's insanity and fear reach its maxed. He cannot hit this old fart, but this old fart can sliced off his body parts. Jiang Qin's arm, thigh, chest was sliced off. When Huang Zhong screamed “SEVENTH SKILL!!!” Jiang Qin's face was slashed along with his nose and lips, revealing a fallen nose and his tooth and gum.

Sun Ce and Liu Mang’s army finally realized Huang Zhong's intention. It is to cut Jiang Qin to pieces just like Su Fei.

Su Fei's death made Huang Zhong extremely angry. If he was killed in battle honorably, he will not act like this. But Su Fei was made into “human swine”, suffered so much that only death can free him. With that Huang Zhong's rage reached the high heavens and with Jiang Qin finally as his opponent, Huang Zhong will definitely make this Jiang Qin into a “human swine” and make him beg for death in front of him.
