A bloody light appeared on the top of Spring Rain restaurant, causing chaos to erupt within An Lin Prefecture.

Due to the limited height, Magistrate Lin did not die from the fall. He only had a broken leg and was lying on the street, barely breathing.

Compared to the damage from the fall, the injury of losing his arm was more serious.

The surrounding people might not recognize the appearance of the magistrate, but they definitely recognized the official uniform on him.

Seeing that the magistrate had been forced to jump off the building, many people were horrified. In an instant, they panicked and fled.

Upstairs, Zhou Jing stuck his head out to confirm the life and death of the magistrate. Coincidentally, he saw Commander Deng fleeing, but he did not intend to chase after this officer.

He retracted his gaze, turning towards Instructor Hu.

Instructor Hu shuddered and immediately said, “Sir, you asked me to cooperate, and I didn’t cause any trouble. After suffering such injuries like this, even if the magistrate doesn’t die, he will be crippled. The government will definitely punish me. How would I dare to surrender to them? This time, I can only leave the city to escape if I want my life. I definitely won’t betray you!”

“I said I won’t kill you, so I won’t kill you.”

Zhou Jing waved his hand and did not say anything more to the trembling Instructor Hu. He picked up his spear and walked towards the stairs.

Under the pincer attack of Gao Yun and Fang Zhen, there were few guards left in the building. The tables and chairs of the restaurant had been shattered in the intense battle, and there was blood everywhere.

Zhou Jing and Fang Zhen went downstairs and met up with Gao Yun, where they quickly finished off the remaining enemies.

The bodies of the magistrate’s guards and the He and Huang families’ relatives who were attending the banquet were lying on the ground. Almost no one in the entire Spring Rain Restaurant survived. The waiter, kitchen helper, and manager had long fled in panic when they saw that the situation was bad, luckily no one stopped them.

“Brother, did you really kill the magistrate?”

Gao Yun’s face was stained with blood. He could not be bothered to regulate his breathing and quickly came over to ask in surprise.

“I didn’t kill him. I only cut off an arm of his and made him jump off the building,” Zhou Jing replied honestly.

“Brother, this is no different from killing him.” Fang Zhen could not help but interrupt.

Gao Yun was stunned, shocked by Zhou Jing’s audacity.

To him, killing a bully was fine, but killing a magistrate was too “exciting”.

However, since he was willing to travel together, he was already mentally prepared. At this moment, he did not blame Zhou Jing. He only said anxiously,

“This is bad. We’ve injured an official of the Imperial Court. What should we do…”

“What’s there to be afraid of? We’ll deal with whatever comes our way.” Fang Zhen patted his chest nonchalantly.

Although he was also shocked at first, he had already accepted the truth.

As an experienced outlaw from the Green Forest, Fang Zhen did not like the high and mighty officials of the Imperial Court who could decide the life and death of commoners with a word. It was just that he had never attacked them. At this moment, he could not help but admire Zhou Jing’s courage to treat officials like grass, and the respect in his heart rose to a higher level.

However, Zhou Jing did not have any other reaction after pulling off such an audacious stunt. He only frowned and analyzed,

“With the magistrate in trouble, the officials will definitely come to this Spring Rain Restaurant. It’s not good to stay here for long.”

Hearing this, Gao Yun composed himself. At this critical juncture, he could only suppress the fear and conflict in his heart and listen to his instructions.

The three of them stepped out of the Spring Rain Restaurant and left quickly.

Which of the onlookers on the street dared to stop such a crazy murderer? They all fled in panic.

After the three of them left, some bold people approached Spring Rain Restaurant to check on the residence. When they realized that the person lying in his own pool of blood was not dead, they hurriedly shouted for help to inform the officials.

The scene slowly turned chaotic.

In the crowd, Shi Qing had unknowingly mixed in and seen most of the process.

“This Brother Chen Feng is too lawless…”

Shi Qing’s face was filled with shock, and he could not help but gulp in shock.

He was following Xiang Tianjie’s orders and came to report the news of the successful prison break, wanting to ask Chen Feng to quickly evacuate. Halfway through, he heard the news and rushed to Spring Rain Restaurant. When he saw the magistrate being forced to jump off the building, he was already frightened out of his wits.

In everyone’s plan, there was no such thing as dealing with the magistrate!

He could not let Brother Chen continue to cause trouble. If he dared to kill the magistrate now, wouldn’t he set fire and burn down the entire city in the future?

Shi Qing’s head was covered in cold sweat as he quietly left the crowd and hurriedly chased after Zhou Jing and the others.

At the same time, Instructor Hu also left Spring Rain Restaurant and rushed home.

He did not have time to deal with the broken bones in detail. He only did some emergency treatment to himself before he quickly packed his belongings, running towards the city gate.

Instructor Hu knew very well that since the magistrate had been seriously injured by an outlaw, this matter would definitely shock the state capital, and the government would definitely not let the matter rest.

At this moment, the magistrate could not give orders, thus things would remain chaotic for the time being. During this period, it was the best opportunity to slip away. The chaos in the city did not affect the city gates, because without an emergency order, even if something happened in the city, the city gates would not close easily.

However, if they waited too long, allowing the officials below to understand the situation and take over the command, order would be quickly restored. The city gates would then most likely be strictly checked, and no one would be allowed to enter or leave.

“Fortunately, I haven’t married nor have had any kids yet…”

At this moment, Instructor Hu felt extremely lucky.

He did not know where to run to this time. It was far more convenient to run alone than to drag his family along.

…

In the alley.

Zhou Jing and the other two were still dressed like soldiers. They crossed the streets and alleys and ran quickly.

At this moment, the tragedy of the He and Huang families had already taken effect. The officials were only focused on chasing the criminals and did not have the mood to suppress the ordinary citizens for the time being. Therefore, many riots occurred in the state capital, mainly in the south of the city.

“Brother, do you still want to break into the remaining two wealthy families?”

Fang Zhen asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, Gao Yun hurriedly dissuaded, “The magistrate is seriously injured. This matter is too serious. Let’s retreat.”
