Chapter 568: Chapter 270: Ideals and Steps_2
Without reaching that level, one is not qualified to leave the Li Family.
But now this person named Li Xunxue, with only 500 health points in combat strength, has appeared here.
Could it be that Yu Wenwuji’s reliance is on this person??
Fang Yu found something strange.
Scanning over the others from the Black Tiger Gang, their health points varied, the highest around seven to eight hundred, and the lowest around one to two hundred, which was indeed an improvement in overall strength.
But compared to Lin Kuanglong with two thousand health points, Fang Yu felt they were not enough.
The only variable, perhaps, was Li Xunxue.
Of course, it might also be that he was overthinking things. Perhaps this was some foreign martial artist who joined the Black Tiger Gang and just happened to have the surname Li, not actually from the Li Family.
"The people from the Black Tiger Gang are getting audacious! That’s the Lin Family! What is the Black Tiger Gang thinking, in the past even if you lent them courage, they wouldn’t dare touch anyone from the Lin Family! But today..."
"Didn’t you hear them say? They are now following the Li Family, backing against a big tree, they’ve got a big background, naturally, they have become arrogant."
"Hmph! What if they have a background, in the world outside, it’s all about strength! What strength does the Black Tiger Gang have, to go head-to-head with the Monster of the Lin Family!"
"A moment of success, lost in their minds, the Black Tiger Gang is just looking for their own death."
Although the Black Tiger Gang and Lin Kuanglong were poised, fully surrounded, and had an absolutely superior number of people.
Yet no one believed that the Black Tiger Gang would return victorious.
The reason was simple, the Monster of the Lin Family, or rather, the Monster of the Five Great Families, has always been unbeatable despite the numbers.
These harsh words, when heard by Yu Wenwuji, only brought a slight smile to his face.
"Lin Kuanglong, today is the day you die, and the beginning of the Lin Family’s decline! This moment significant enough to be recorded in Tianyuan Town’s history, will be personally initiated by me, Yu Wenwuji, the Gang Leader of the Black Tiger Gang!"
"A new era is about to arrive!"
The power landscape is going to reshuffle!
The chaotic ladder has already appeared!
And I, leading the Black Tiger Gang, will climb up the ladder!
"New era? You, a mere commoner, also delusively thinking of changing the heavens? All your flowery speech cannot change your despicable fate!"
Lin Kuanglong sneered.
Without waiting for Yu Wenwuji to speak again, he suddenly charged toward the three people!
To capture the bandits, capture the leader first, kill Yu Wenwuji, and the rest will scatter like birds and beasts!
Lin Kuanglong had a clear mindset, but he didn’t expect that Yu Wenwuji was on a different level.
Almost at the instant Lin Kuanglong charged, Yu Wenwuji had already retreated back with Wu Xinbang and Li Baizhen, increasing their distance.
The skilled maneuver as if rehearsed in anticipation, the timing impeccably precise, the movements extremely adept, and accompanying it were two words that slipped out.
"Take action!"
Swish swish swish——
As soon as Yu Wenwuji spoke, three figures shot out as if they had been waiting a long time, executing the command in that split second.
Suddenly closing in for a pincer attack, charging towards... the back of Lin Kuanglong! Where the eight-bearer palanquin was located!
That was, where Lin Kuanglong’s wife was!
In the midst of the sprint, Lin Kuanglong, startled, immediately reacted.
"How audacious!"
He abruptly stopped his steps, furiously glaring at Yu Wenwuji and his two men, then turned and retreated!
His speed so rapid, like low altitude gliding, swiftly retreating, nearly catching up to the three attackers from behind!
[Chen Feishuang: 294/294.]
[Wu Shubai: 500/500.]
[Zhuang Jiaxi: 416/416.]
Fang Yu saw these three, their strength was only average. But their willpower was unexpectedly resolute, facing the swiftly approaching Lin Kuanglong, these three actually showed a readiness to die! Unwilling to stop until the mission was complete!
Where did these Death Soldiers come from?
Fang Yu was stunned.
He had risen in both legitimate and underhanded circles of Tianyuan Town, yet no one or spirit dared claim to disregard their own life for him.
Of course, Brother Qing was an exception.
The Second Sister was also...
But these two, came to his side through heartfelt interaction.
What about this Yu Wenwuji, what’s he got?
What kind of charisma did this guy have to nurture several Death Soldiers willing to die for him?
And from the mere Black Tiger Gang, raise Death Soldiers?
Fang Yu didn’t believe it at all.
Hisss!!!
At the moment Fang Yu thought of this, a sword light had already flashed in front.
-294!
Chen Feishuang from the ambush trio did not have the time to utter last words before being furiously split in half by Lin Kuanglong’s sword; his body separated into upper and lower parts and rolled with a thud next to the palanquin.
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
The servants and maid screamed in terror.
The guards had already drawn their swords to protect the palanquin.
But... the vast gap in strength made these guards incapable of protecting the palanquin.
With a swoosh, one of the ambush trio had already entered the palanquin!
As Lin Kuanglong stabbed his sword into Zhuang Jiaxi’s heart and lunged forward, trying to grab the palanquin’s curtain, a fierce shout suddenly came from inside.
"Lin Kuanglong, move again, and your wife’s head will fall to the ground!"
Lin Kuanglong’s reaching hand stiffened in mid-air, motionless.
His right hand, clenching the longsword, trembled slightly, veins bulging.
In just a moment,
just an instant, he could have slain the scum inside!
But he wasn’t sure if in that instant, the person inside would decapitate his wife, who possessed no martial arts skills.
Thus, that reaching hand slowly clenched into a fist, and taking a deep breath, Lin Kuanglong slowly turned around to face Yu Wenwuji, who was far away.
"You! What! Do! You! Want!"
Lin Kuanglong nearly bit out each word as he spoke.
Yu Wenwuji smiled.
"Kill all those people that Lin Kuanglong brought."
He was instructing not Lin Kuanglong, but his own men.
Some of his men still feared Lin Kuanglong’s earlier display and hesitated to act.
Some had mustered the courage to proceed.
"Master, save me! Master, save me!"
The servants knelt and pleaded for Lin Kuanglong to save them, but...
Hisss!
A slash of a sword, and the Black Tiger Gang had already decapitated the servants.
The others followed suit, quickly executing the group.
The servants collapsed into pools of blood, becoming corpses scattered on the ground.
Throughout it all, Lin Kuanglong did not even turn his head but stared coldly at Yu Wenwuji.
"Now, can you release her?"
Yu Wenwuji drew a paper fan from his waist, flicked it open with a snap, and leisurely fanned himself, smiling.
"Lin Kuanglong, the deputy captain of the Lin Family Martial Arts Hall, a respected martial artist! Even though you have not touched Qi, you have sensed it. It’s tragic and lamentable: a man like you, trapped and troubled by love!"
At first, he was smiling as he spoke, but by the end, his expression was fierce, gritting his teeth like an enraged lion.
"What I do is none of your business, release her! Or the Lin Family will not let you go!"
Lin Kuanglong said coldly.
Yu Wenwuji let out an angry cold laugh.
"Do you think I’m sighing for you, feeling sorrow for you? I’m feeling sorrow for the countless ordinary talents, for those common martial artists who diligently practice martial arts to enhance their skills!"
"This world should not be like this! It’s you, the Five Great Families, who control ninety percent of Tianyuan Town’s resources! Letting other martial artists spend their lives unable to catch up with you!"
"Do they lack talent? Do they not work hard? No! It’s that they lack resources! They lack the qualifications!"
"Why can’t a martial artist of common origin soar to the skies? Why can’t we stand above the Five Great Families!"
"The Five Great Families should not exist any longer."
"Old but not dead is but a thief."
"Just because of the existence of the Five Great Families, just because your surname is Lin, a waste like you, who can give up everything for a woman, can step over the heads of martial artists with exceptional talent."
"If you weren’t born a Lin, what would you be?"
Yu Wenwuji’s passionate words stirred some martial artists present.
But immediately, what welled up in their hearts was helplessness and sighs.
The Five Great Families, like five massive mountains, press down on all martial artists in Tianyuan Town, leaving them gasping for breath.
For so many years, no one has been able to overthrow the rule of the Five Great Families. What can you, a little gang leader of the Black Tiger Gang, do?
