LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 52 Apologize
Wen Hua showed a look of regret on his face, but Chen Yuan did not comment and asked again:
"Why did you join the Sanjiang Gang?"
"After arriving in Yuzhou, Master Duanfang asked me to collect mortal souls. It happened that there was a fierce battle between the Sanjiang Gang and the Fuhu Gang, so I found Huang Xiuzhi, showed some low-level magic, subdued him, and called Duanfang The Master can help him destroy the Fuhu Gang."
"Huang Xiuzhi was overjoyed. In order to deceive others, he asked me to join the Sanjiang Gang, pretending to be his think tank, but actually doing nothing. He originally wanted Master Duanfang to intercept the Fuhu Gang's convoy and was willing to provide information, but I inquired and found out , Gang Leader Luo has quite a relationship with Yan Zhizhou. If the Fuhu Gang’s convoys suffer frequent disasters, it is very likely to alarm the government, so he rejected the proposal. Now it seems that there is God’s will in the dark to prevent me from offending my senior... "
Wen Huasheng quietly observed Chen Yuan's face again, and Chen Yuan said calmly:
"Then what?"
Wen Huasheng was quite disappointed, but still cheered up and replied:
"After that, the Sanjiang Gang provided information about the caravan at Yuanpingxing. Master Duanfang took action and intercepted several caravans. But he only did it at Yuanpingxing, which was too conspicuous. Later, he went to Yongpingjiang to intercept and kill several caravans. Killing the fleet, this is the territory of the Sanjiang Gang, is more convenient. A total of eight fleets were killed before and after, plus the caravan in Yuan Pingxing, allowing Master Duanfang to collect thousands of souls. "
"It is precisely because it is too easy to collect living souls on the Yongping River that Master Duanfang couldn't stop. He originally promised to attack the Fuhu Gang half a year ago, but it has been postponed until today. Fortunately, the senior has invincible power and got rid of this beast. Peace in Yuzhou!”
Facing the softening flattery, Chen Yuan remained expressionless and said:
"Since this night attack was a ploy by the Sanjiang Gang to get you into trouble, why was there no preparation at the Shuqingguanwai camp and the losses were so heavy?"
A trace of panic flashed in Wen Hua's eyes, and he hesitated:
"Master Duanfang has a huge appetite. In addition to the souls of mortals, he also wants to collect a thousand souls of warriors. Huang Xiuzhi came up with this idea and asked me to deliberately leak the information about the Sanjiang Gang's fleet, which led to an ambush by the Fuhu Gang and took Sanjiang with him. The gang members pretended to be defeated and retreated to Xiong'er Island, and then lured the elite Fuhu Gang to the island and gathered a thousand warriors. Master Duanfang would then take action to harvest the living souls. After that, Master Duanfang would help Huang Xiuzhi. He unified the world of Yuzhou and recruited his followers again. Thanks to the appearance of his seniors, this evil plot was thwarted..."
Chen Yuan nodded slightly and said:
"Are there any other monks around Master Duanfang?"
Wenhua said without thinking:
"No! From the beginning to the end, I have only seen him as an immortal cultivator, and the senior is the second one."
A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Yuan's mouth and said:
"In that case, you can get on your way!"
After saying that, he swayed and came to Wen Huasheng, grabbed Wen Huasheng's neck and lifted him up.
Wen Huazhong grabbed Chen Yuan's left hand and pulled it hard, but the difference in strength between the two was so great that it had no effect.
He looked horrified and said:
"Everything this junior said is true. Senior has promised to spare my life. Why, ahem, why did he go back on his promise?"
Chen Yuan said calmly:
"You came up with this plan to put you in a trap, right? You are such a vicious and ruthless person. After thinking about it, I decided to send you to the underworld to be with the thousands of mortals who were harmed by you! "
Click!
He gave Wen Huazhong a heavy grip and broke Wen Huazhong's neck.
Wen Huazhong stared at Chen Yuan with hatred in his eyes and refused to close his eyes.
Chen Yuan took off the black brocade bag from Wen Huasheng's waist, threw the body on the ground, smiled contemptuously, and said:
"Is this a cultivator? A person who clearly has the power to fight back but dare not take action is far inferior to my cheap master. A person who has great magic power but is greedy for life and fear of death has no backbone and is worse than a fallen soldier. …”
He raised his hand and waved, and the gray brocade pouch around Master Duanfang's waist and the small black flag shrunk to three inches slowly flew over and landed in his palm.
Chen Yuan put the two objects and the black brocade bag into his arms, turned around, looked at Luo Zhenwu, and said coldly:
"Gang leader, I have fulfilled my promise. The Sanjiang Gang has been destroyed. It is time to settle the score between us."
Luo Zhenwu held the Huanshou knife tightly, his expression changing.
Just now, he broke up the relationship between Chen Yuan and the Fuhu Gang and let Chen Yuan have a fierce fight with Master Duanfang. He saved his life, but this also angered Chen Yuan.
Master Duan Fang, Huang Xiuzhi, and Wen Huazhong died one after another, and now it was finally his turn.
Luo Zhenwu took a deep breath, cupped his fists and bowed deeply, saying:
"At the critical moment of life and death, Luo was forced to have no choice but to survive. Please forgive me once, for the sake of the Fuhu Gang providing elixirs to you, Hall Master Chen. Luo also offered me a treasure as an apology. "
Chen Yuan frowned and said:
"Mortal treasures are of no use to me."
Luo Zhenwu hurriedly explained:
"It's not a common treasure, it's a treasure for immortal cultivators. Hall Master Chen will definitely use it!"
Chen Yuan became interested and asked:
"What kind of treasure is it?"
Luo Zhenwu replied:
"That treasure is an immortal cultivation technique. It was given to me personally by an immortal cultivator. It should be useful to Hall Master Chen."
Chen Yuan's expression changed slightly and he said:
"Have you met other immortal cultivators?"
Luo Zhenwu observed the words and expressions, was startled, and said:
"Don't worry, Hall Master Chen. I met that immortal cultivator by chance seventeen years ago. I haven't seen him since. I will never be in trouble with Hall Master Chen."
Chen Yuan's expression softened slightly and he said:
"Why did he give you a technique for cultivating immortality?"
Luo Zhenwu's eyes flashed with a trace of reminiscence, and he said:
"It's a long story. Seventeen years ago, I was just a marrow refining warrior. I served as the leader of the Shennongtang guard team and escorted the herb collectors into the Chimang Mountains to collect herbs."
"Once when I went into the mountains to collect medicine, I found a comatose middle-aged man by a small river with large burns on his body. I felt pity for him and took him back to the camp. I took good care of him and fed him a lot of precious food. Herbal medicine.”
"Seven days later, the man woke up and learned that I had saved him. He was extremely grateful and said that he was a cultivator of immortality and cast two spells. I was young at the time and devoted myself to cultivating immortality. I begged him to accept me as his disciple, but he said I have no spiritual roots and cannot cultivate immortality..."
Speaking of this, a trace of loneliness flashed across Luo Zhenwu's face, he sighed softly, and then said:
"Although I can't cultivate immortality, in order to repay my life-saving grace, he still gave me a bottle of elixir and a skill, saying that if my descendants can cultivate magic power, they will be people with spiritual roots. After saying that, he flew away..."
Chen Yuan interrupted:
"Did he just fly away, or did he step on something and fly into the air?"
Luo Zhenwu lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said:
"He stepped on nothing. There was only a burst of gray light that enveloped his whole body and flew away into the sky so fast that he was out of sight in the blink of an eye."
Chen Yuan nodded and asked:
"Where is the bottle of elixir?"
Luo Zhenwu smiled bitterly and said:
"There are only four pills in that bottle. It is a holy medicine for healing. It has the effect of the flesh and bones of the living dead. It has helped me survive several life-and-death crises. It was used up six years ago. Without that bottle of pills, I would not be able to sit on the road. The position of gang leader.”
"But that skill is obscure and difficult to understand. I can only understand the most basic part. I let the family members try to practice it, but no one has the power. I am willing to give this skill to Hall Master Chen, and hope that Chen Hall Lord spare my life."
Chen Yuan pondered for a moment and said:
"Forget it, for the sake of past friendship, I will forget about it this time. Where is the skill?"
Luo Zhenwu was overjoyed, and his anxious heart was finally relieved, and he said repeatedly:
"That skill is in my house. Please, Hall Master Chen, follow me back to the county. I will give it to you immediately with both hands!"
…
That night, Luo Zhenwu gathered the remaining Fuhu Gang members and Sanjiang Gang prisoners on Xiong'er Island and returned to the shore.
The bodies of Master Duanfang and Wen Huasheng were all burned to ashes by Chen Yuan to avoid leaving traces.
Shi Rong knew part of the inside story. He originally thought that the Fuhu Gang would be ambushed by the Sanjiang Gang, but it turned out that the Fuhu Gang won and was greatly surprised.
However, he and Huang Xiuzhi had an interest-based relationship and had no friendship. They would not offend Yan Zhizhou for the sake of the Sanjiang Gang, and they did not embarrass the Hu Gang.
When the Fuhu Gang and his party returned to Chongxinfang, Hou Yan was horrified to learn that the senior officials of the Fuhu Gang and the Sanjiang Gang had all been wiped out.
However, Luo Zhenwu and Chen Yuan had already thought of their excuses along the way and covered up Master Duanfang's affairs.
After Luo Zhenwu appeased Hou Yan, he arranged manpower overnight to fully take over the Sanjiang Gang's property in Yuzhou.
Huang Xiuzhi brought all the Sanjiang Gang's account books, land deeds, house deeds, gold and silver to Xiong'er Island and fell into the hands of the Fuhu Gang.
Although the Fuhu Gang's masters suffered heavy casualties and heavy losses this time, they have no rivals in Yuzhou. After taking over the Sanjiang Gang's property, they will soon be able to grow again.
These trivial matters did not take long. Luo Zhenwu made some hasty arrangements, then returned home with Chen Yuan and handed him the book of immortality cultivation techniques.
