Chapter 243 Seven Kills Building’s Credibility (1)
Fei Xinlan was the most famous disciple of Lanyue City’s Flying Sword Gallery. Although she was still a little short of entering the Transcendent realm, her sword technique was already extraordinary.
Qiu Tong was her eldest senior sister.
“The Fang family is quite influential in Fengye City. They will soon know everything that has transpired here,” the Blood Rain Guard’s gray-robed guard said seriously. “We have to meet up with Master immediately.”
“Miss, let’s go-quickly,” Uncle Zhang urged.
At this moment, Fei Xinlan didn’t dare let her rashness get the better of her. She said to the woman holding her husband’s corpse, “You should leave quickly.” The woman kneeled and kowtowed. “Thank you, benefactor.”
Then, she held back her sorrow, silently carried her husband’s corpse on her back, and trudged away.
Fei Xinlan and the others quickly left, leaving Fang Chong and the other corpses behind.
Hundred Hollows Bridge was packed with people. Countless people looked at the corpses, and a group of people immediately appeared to cordon off the area and guard the corpses.
“The Nine Song Gang is handling some matters. Get lost.” Dozens of gang members protected the scene.
The Nine Song Gang was the largest gang in Fengye City, and they were stronger than any of the three gangs in Lanyue City. In such a bustling place, many gang members naturally maintained order in exchange for protection fees.
Xu Jingming and the others had attacked too ruthlessly. These ordinary gang members didn’t dare to join in the fray and throw their lives away; they only dared to step forward
now.
In the inn.
“Dad, I killed someone,” Fei Xinlan said with her head lowered when she saw her father.
“The son of Fengye City’s Fang Sanyou, Fang Chong, was killed,” Uncle Zhang immediately said. “This Fang Chong is the adopted son of Nine Song Gang’s leader, Dong Ke. It’s said that Fang Sanyou and the master of Nest Mountain Lake are best friends.”
Before his son rose to prominence, Old Master Fei naturally had extraordinary means to make a name for himself. He nodded calmly and ordered, “We can’t stay in the inn any longer. Quickly head to the camp of the Blood Rain Guard in Fengye City. Everyone, quickly bring your things and set off immediately!”
Soon, the Fei family convoy headed straight for Blood Rain Guard’s encampment.
******
The Fang family’s status in Fengye City was extraordinary. The local Blood Rain Guard commander and City Lord were good friends of Fang Sanyou. The Nine Song Gang’s boss, Dong Ke, had taken the initiative to adopt Fang Chong as his adopted son. From this, it could be seen how influential Fang Sanyou
was.
“What did you say?” Fang Sanyou—who had just climbed out of bed with his clothes draped over him-stared at the person in front of him.
“Young Master Fang Chong was killed on the spot after a conflict between foreigners broke out at Hundred Hollows Bridge. His subordinates were also wiped out in the blink of an eye,” a bald man said carefully. “I was at the entrance of Hundred Hollows Bridge, and I saw it clearly from the side. Those foreigners were too terrifying, so the gang members didn’t dare to attack. Now, the other gang members are protecting Young Master Fang Chong’s corpse.”
“All were killed in the blink of an eye?” Fang Sanyou narrowed his eyes like a venomous snake. “Are you sure? Even Tie Daoxiong by my son’s side was killed?”
“Yes, his saber technique was impressive, but he was stabbed in the throat by a foreign, spear-wielding youth upon clashing,” the bald man immediately replied.
Tie Daoxiong was the most famous among Fang Chong’s subordinates. He was a second-rate expert after all, and the members of Nine Song Gang knew him.
“Upon clashing?” Fang Sanyou’s pupils constricted, and he asked, “How many people did the other party have? How many people attacked?”
“There were a total of eight people, and the person in the lead was a girl. She was the one who killed Young Master Fang Chong. One of them used concealed weapons and instantly killed more than half of the men. Then, three people rushed out… In the blink of an eye, Lord Xiong and the others were all killed,” the bald man recounted. “Young Master Fang Chong also revealed his identity and his relationship with the one from Nest Mountain Lake, but he was still killed.”
Fang Sanyou waved his hand, and the bald man immediately left.
Fang Sanyou looked at the night sky outside the window and felt flustered.
A powerful foreigner whose background is unknown. Fang Sanyou hated unknown enemies the most. He could do whatever he wanted in Fengye City, but it was difficult to say for foreigners like this. They could vary in terms of importance—too big, and they would be existences he couldn’t resist.
“Old Fu,” Fang Sanyou immediately shouted.
An elder quickly arrived outside the study.
“Old Fu, quickly bring a team and protect my younger son. Follow the west city gate and head to Nest Mountain Lake as quickly as possible,” Fang Sanyou instructed.
Most of the members of his Fang family were at Nest Mountain Lake, and only his wife and children followed him to Fengye City.
“Yes, sir,” the elder replied. He then immediately led his men to protect the young scion.
I want to see what kind of background they have. Fang Sanyou had managed Fengye City for many years and was quite confident. It was just that he was used to considering the consequences of failure before victory by securing his bloodline via sending them off first.
The convoy headed straight for the Blood Rain Guard’s encampment.
The Blood Rain Guard encampment in every city was the most important place. It represented the empire’s strongest force in this city!
“Halt!” The guards at the encampment entrance immediately shouted angrily from afar as arrows pointed at the horse team.
Whoosh!
A black token flew over from afar and stabbed into the ground outside the encampment.
“Get your commander out.” A silver-haired elder in the Fei family team shouted angrily.
“It’s the Blood Rain Guard’s Black Blood Token?” The garrison guard was alarmed when he saw it and immediately returned to report.
Soon, Commander Chang of Fengye City’s Blood Rain Guard immediately led his subordinates to welcome them.
“Greetings, my lords.” Commander Chang was a bearded man with a valiant bearing. He knew very well that those who could produce the Blood Rain Guard’s Black Blood Token were all members of the empire’s eastern region headquarters.
