Finished speaking, Shi Hanshan lunged out, heading straight for Bai Shao. “Presumptuous! Let this old man take you on!”
A furious rebuke sounded from Bai Shao’s left side, where a blue-clothed elder, his hair half white, stepped forward to meet the astonishing momentum of Shi Hanshan.
“Boom!”
The blue-clothed elder struck with his right palm, delivering a blow that seemed slow yet fast, embodying a combination of motion and stillness.
In just a few steps, Shi Hanshan’s towering figure surged forward, his gigantic fist smashing out like a heavy meteorite!
“Bang!”
Fist met palm, setting off a crackling explosion like firecrackers, and from where they stood, a ring of air waves spread out, causing the dust on the ground to roll back in all directions.
The bodies of Shi Hanshan and the blue-clothed elder both trembled simultaneously.
“Take a few more of my punches!”
But soon, Shi Hanshan grinned and unleashed a series of heavy punches, each one as terrifyingly forceful as a meteor flying across the sky.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The blue-clothed elder’s forehead bulged with veins as he pushed his palm technique, honed over decades, to its limits, withstanding Shi Hanshan’s heavy punches. But it was evident to anyone that he was straining to cope with the ferocious Shi Hanshan!
“Damn it… Did Shi Hanshan get the message, knowing that the Gang Leader and the Deputy Gang Leader were away, and seize the opportunity to attack? With Elder Gongsun’s strength, he’s no match for Shi Hanshan!”
Watching this scene, Cai Tong’s heart grew heavy.
As a long-established major faction within the Martial World of Clearwater City, the White Jade Gang had numerous experts, with the most powerful being Gang Leader Bai Tianhao and the Deputy Gang Leader. However, both of them were currently not within the White Jade Gang.
That’s why Shi Hanshan dared to come knocking.
Elder Gongsun, the blue-clothed elder, was one of the few experts of the White Jade Gang and had reached the Divine Strength Realm. But as age took its toll and his physical state declined, he was indeed somewhat overmatched by the youthful and robust Shi Hanshan.
“Should I deploy the Iron Armored Soldiers?”
And in Bai Shao’s mind, thoughts flashed rapidly as he hesitated whether to deploy the Iron Armored Soldiers.
The fifty sets of armor forged by Black Iron Manor were intended to confront the Black Cavalry Gang, Bai Shao’s ace in the hole!
Using these armors now would surely make it easy to repel the invading Black Cavalry Gang, but Bai Shao was more inclined to use them against the leaders of the Black Cavalry Gang. Revealing his trump card at this moment would undoubtedly make them cautious!
Moreover, martial artists wearing the heavy iron armor would not be able to pursue the horse-mounted knights of the Black Cavalry Gang.
“Just hold on a little longer…” Bai Shao ultimately decided to wait.
“The Black Cavalry Gang dares to attack us? They must be out of their minds!”
“Hurry, hurry, hurry! I, Long Ao, will definitely claim their heads!”
The White Jade Gang’s compound was in chaos at that moment.
The Black Cavalry Gang had launched their attack at dawn, just as the sky was beginning to lighten, catching most White Jade Gang disciples still asleep or resting, utterly unprepared. Now, these disciples were gathering to head outside the compound, ready to face off against the invading Black Cavalry Gang.
“Are we… going to kill people?”
A White Jade Gang disciple, around eighteen or nineteen years of age, with a sword at his waist, was slightly pale and trembling.
This youth had joined the White Jade Gang for several years but had never been in a fight. The sound of combat outside provoked an uncontrollable fear within him; the thought of killing or being killed was something most people never wanted to experience!
“Bang!”
As the youth hesitated whether to head to the battlefield, he suddenly felt a gust of wind from behind, followed by a severe pain in the back of his head, and stars burst before his eyes as the world spun around him.
“Who… who?” The youth was bewildered, not knowing who had suddenly attacked him. After all, he had reached the Strength Refinement Realm not long ago and had no inkling of someone sneaking up behind him, collapsing to the ground with a thud.
Behind the fallen White Jade Gang young disciple lay a youth with slightly indented cheekbones and narrow eyes at the corners. It was Su Changkong, who disguised himself by using the Turtle Breath Shrinkage to change his bone structure!
Su Changkong’s eyes were icy as he dragged the White Jade Gang disciple he had knocked out into a corner, stripped him of his clothing, and then put it on himself.
Before long, Su Changkong was dressed in the white robe of a White Jade Gang disciple, but the coldness in his eyes made him appear fiercely menacing!
“Black Cavalry Gang, huh? Then today… you’ll pay the price!”
Taking a deep breath, Su Changkong caught up with a group of White Jade Gang disciples hurrying towards the battlefield outside their base.
Familiar faces with whom he had worked closely for nearly half a year had, in the blink of an eye, perished at the hands of the Black Cavalry Gang. Although Su Changkong was unscathed, a mix of anger and killing intent stirred in his heart.
To leave now would certainly be the wisest choice. A gentleman doesn’t stand under a collapsing wall, but the indignation in his heart would be difficult to dissipate, making it hard to focus on his cultivation!
Su Changkong’s plan was simple: disguise himself as a White Jade Gang disciple, brutally kill a number of Black Cavalry Gang martial artists, and avenge those who died at their hands, like Zhang Qian and Liu Can.
“Hurry! Today is a good chance to kill enemies and perform meritorious deeds!”
Dressed in the White Jade Gang disciple uniform and blending in with a crowd of White Jade Gang disciples, Su Changkong heard a long-haired man exclaim excitedly.
For the ordinary gang members, indeed, performing meritorious deeds in a great battle was a fast track to rising through the ranks!
However, when they rushed out of their base and arrived at the battlefield where both sides were clashing, the group was somewhat stunned.
“Kill!”
In the distance, roars echoed in the air, the neighing of horses and the explosive yells of martial artists clashing in battle vibrated the soul with a pervading stench of blood – the raw carnage of killing!
“Puchi!”
Scores of yards away, a Black Cavalry Gang martial artist rode a tall, strong horse, galloping at high speed with a curved sabre that cleanly chopped off the head of a White Jade Gang martial artist. The severed head flew up high and fell heavily to the ground.
From the severed neck, blood spurted more than a yard high!
This bloody and stimulating scene directly stunned the long-haired man who had previously vowed to perform heroically by killing Black Cavalry Gang martial artists; he stood frozen on the spot, as if soulless!
This was no child’s game but a real struggle of life and death where everyone risked their heads tied to their waists, either you die or I perish!
“These White Jade Gang sissies are too weak, right? They probably have lived in comfort for too long!”
Over a hundred ferocious Black Cavalry Gang knights sneered softly, feeling that the White Jade Gang hadn’t encountered an enemy in a long while and had not experienced life-and-death struggles, and thus couldn’t become strong.
“Kill!”
At that moment, a Black Cavalry Gang knight noticed the dazed long-haired man and charged towards him at full gallop.
“Watch out!” nearby White Jade Gang disciples shouted loudly in warning. But by the time the long-haired man snapped back to reality, the Black Cavalry Gang knight was already upon him, crashing his horse into the man.
“Neigh!”
The warhorse let out a shrill neigh as its front hooves reared up, trampling down.
Just then, a dark figure charged out fiercely—it was Su Changkong!
Su Changkong bent slightly at the waist as he rushed under the belly of the horse with its front hooves raised. He embraced the horse’s belly and, with a strong tug of his arms, brought the animal down!
“Neigh!”
The horse let out a pitiful wail as it flipped backward, crashing heavily to the ground, taking the Black Cavalry Gang knight on its back down with it. The man broke bone upon bone and lay pinned beneath the horse, screaming continuously, unable to move!
Watching the knight struggle desperately trying to crawl out, looking utterly miserable, Su Changkong remembered Zhang Qjan, Liu Can, and others who had been killed senselessly before. His eyes were cold and without mercy as he stomped down on the knight’s throat.
“Crack!”
Amidst the sound of fracturing bones, the knight’s eyes bulged, and his struggles came to an abrupt halt!
