Chapter 148 Tang Clan’s Decision
Listening to his argument, Will turned a deaf ear to it, raised a teasing smile at the corner of his mouth, and humiliated him:
"Isn't it better for the bug to just wait for death? After all this trouble, all you have to say are useless last words."
As soon as he finished speaking, dark purple mist spread behind him. Will reached in, pulled out a dark golden dagger, and walked slowly forward.
Seeing that he was determined to kill them all, the two elders, Haizhu and Shenhou, were scared to death, fearing that they would not be able to wait for reinforcements. They gritted their teeth and led the remaining thirteen assassins to a decisive battle with Will.
"Sand Flow - Bite!"
Red and purple Qi ignited from Elder Shenhou's body. Despite his serious injuries, he launched a killing move with one hand.
"Boom!"
Dense poisonous sand poured out of his body like a torrent, covering the ground of the dock and forming a vortex. Countless sharp sand thorns appeared, blocking Will's path.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!"
More than a dozen hidden weapons exploded with speeds comparable to bullets, striking the target's vital points.
"How long will this farce drag on?"
In Will's dynamic vision, the flying trajectory of the hidden weapons appeared particularly slow. He waved his hand and a cold light flashed across the sky, cutting off all the silver needles and darts.
Due to the poisonous sand whirlpool, which was like a swamp, Will locked his eyes on the fifteen people, slowly mobilizing the bacteria in his body, and then he exhaled gently.
"call--!"
A wisp of gray mist that was so thin that it was difficult to detect overflowed from his mouth and spread forward.
"Oh no! It's poison again."
Elder Shenhou, who noticed this slight movement, was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he shouted to remind the people around him to resist.
"receive!"
An old man carrying a green gourd on his back hurriedly pulled out the blood-red gourd from his waist and urged it to move. A terrible suction force suddenly formed from the mouth of the gourd, sucking in the dust carrying the germs and the hidden weapons on the ground.
"."
When the plan failed, Weir used his force to destroy it. His afterimage disappeared and he jumped over the poisonous sand vortex in an instant. Holding a dagger, he landed on the ground. The moment he passed by an assassin, blood burst out from his throat and his head flew off. He died with his eyes open.
"clang!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Will was like a tiger among a flock of sheep. He raised his sword and swung it down. The blade with a gray aura shone on it and, as he swung it willfully, he once again cut an assassin in half.
"Stop him!"
Elder Shen Hou was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of dirty blood. He was already at the end of his strength and could not face the enemy head-on, so he was protected by several subordinates.
"kill!"
The pig let out a loud roar, and the fat all over its body trembled as if kerosene was burning. It withered and shrank in an instant, and rich blood spurted out from its limbs and bones.
After performing the forbidden technique, Haizhu transformed from being clumsy and fat to being burly and rugged, with bulging muscles all over his body like they were cast in marble. He had a thick beard and was nearly two meters tall. Just standing there, he exuded a strong sense of oppression.
Tan Lang's Blood Body, one of the unique skills of Sin Sand throughout history.
By overeating, he swallowed a large amount of medicinal materials, flesh and blood into his body, which accumulated to nourish his body and cleanse his meridians. Although he was ugly and fat, when the time was right, he could burst out all the medicinal power and vitality stored in the past at once, pouring them into his body and greatly improving his "life" cultivation.
“Nice prey.”
Will stared at Elder Haizhu, gave him a fair evaluation, and fought with him with a dagger in hand.
"Boom!"
The two afterimages fought back and forth madly, emitting a dull roar. It was so fast that the bystanders were extremely anxious, but they were unable to intervene for fear of accidentally hurting their own elders.
The traces of blood splashing in the air were chaotically crisscrossed, making Elder Shenhou feel hopeless. A freak like Haizhu who was good at horizontal training was least afraid of being hit by blunt instruments and was instead restrained by sharp instruments.
An ordinary sharp blade could not cut through the toughened skin, but the dagger used by the foreigner ignored the strength of the flesh and continued to leave hideous scars on Haizhu.
"boom!!!"
Amid everyone's anxious anticipation, with a loud bang, the battle seemed to come to a temporary end. Only a black afterimage was seen flying backwards like a kite with a broken string, plowing a white mark on the ground.
"Elder, you actually defeated that man?!"
Some people felt relieved, but the next moment, they saw the most cruel scene in their lives.
"wrong!"
The Monkey looked horrified, his eyes fixed on the bloody back of the Pig. He should have taken advantage of the victory to chase after the Pig, but now he was frozen in place.
Weir, who was not far away, stood up slowly. His eyes were blazing with sinister light. He wiped the dark green blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at his prey with a lingering feeling, and murmured:
"Is that all? That's interesting."
As he finished speaking, the remaining blood lines on the pig's body expanded uncontrollably.
The assassin present realized something was wrong and shouted hurriedly: "Elder! What's wrong with you?!"
"Elder!!"
However, in response to them, the body of the Pig gradually fell apart.
"Pfft."
"Wow"
The sea breeze from the dock broke the balance of force, and dozens of irregular body parts slowly scattered all over the ground.
Sin Sand, the strongest elder of Henglian, the Pig, died.
The assassins, who were still in shock, felt a chill running down their spines and were almost forced into the sea by Will who was approaching them step by step.
At this moment, the sea breeze blew by, and a slender figure actually stood in front of the remnants of Sin Sand.
Elder Shenhou was nervous and his clothes were soaked with cold sweat. The support they had spent a lot of money and waited for finally arrived at the last moment.
The intruder that caught Will's eye was a gray-haired old man with a strong physique, wearing a black suit and holding a lit cigar in his hand.
The familiar yet unfamiliar face made Will's expression a little heavy. Dark clouds gathered on the dome, lightning and thunder flashed, and heavy rain followed.
"These people are my employers. How about we just call it a day?"
The old man tried to test Will's thoughts, and from his tone, it seemed that the two knew each other.
"Step aside."
Hearing the concise answer, the old man suddenly attacked Weir.
Even though they were both members of the 'Deep Sea', they had only met a few times in the past decade or so, and were like strangers, with no reservations.
"boom!"
The terrifying speed almost made Will lose his mind. He waved his dagger to block, but was still knocked back several feet by a punch, his palms trembling.
"Oh? Are you injured?"
The old man noticed something was wrong and his attacks became more fierce. His fists were surrounded by boiling white steam, and every time he struck out, the air exploded like a thunder explosion.
"Are you sure you want to stop me? Stef, you can't afford the price."
Will released the gray fog, starting from himself, covering the surroundings and forcing the old man to stop.
"After all, I received benefits from them. I will protect these people."
The old man named Stef, with a pair of piercing eyes, showed disappointment. He said, "How could you, arrogant you, submit to being a dog raised by others? You really have not yet shed your animal nature." "If you want to leave, I won't stop you. But you can't touch any of them."
The two sides were evenly matched, but Will's strength did not lie in his physique or fighting skills, but in his hundreds of troublesome germs.
If the conflict continued, Stef was not so arrogant that he would not be left with any scars. Any scratch would be equivalent to death.
"So you think you're giving me charity?"
Will sneered and scolded, and the gray fog rolled, gradually engulfing his figure.
However, before he completely disappeared, he raised his right hand, locked his eyes on Elder Shenhou in the crowd, and cast a witchcraft curse.
"You can't save the person I want to kill."
"Boom!"
The ground behind collapsed, and a rotten monkey paw, which was between real and unreal, suddenly grabbed Shen Hou. His skin festered instantly, and he let out a struggling wail, but his eyeballs bulged and fell out strangely, and his body became limp and dead, like a machine with various parts disassembled.
“Vill!!”
The lion-like roar shook the dock. Stef's fists were clenched so hard that they made a crackling sound. He had not expected the beast to act so rampantly. He even wanted to humiliate him before leaving, and directly killed his employer.
In a narrow alley hundreds of meters away, Will was walking with his hands on the wall. His chest was heaving and he was gasping for breath. The attacks from Haizhu and Stef made him feel a little tired.
"It's almost done. Just kill a few more and then go back."
Soon, the gray fog covered him and his figure disappeared again. According to the map provided by the captives, he went to another city and killed the vice president of the Shadow Bamboo Society.
The next day, he achieved his wish and killed all of his targets and the guards who surrounded them at the harbor where the ferry was about to depart.
night.
In the Tang Clan in Shu, Tang Bingwen, who received the report from the informant, slowly opened the letter, and several rows of neat handwriting appeared.
"All the twelve zodiac elders of Sin Sand were killed, their stronghold was destroyed, and their disciples were scattered;"
"The Shadow Bamboo Society's president, vice president, and five top assassins, none of them survived;"
"The new leader of Wan Nian Shou took his men and sailed out to sea, temporarily fleeing to the mainland, and his whereabouts are unknown."
Tang Jian and Yang Lie, who were accompanying him, saw the gatekeeper smiling with satisfaction and could not suppress their curiosity, so they asked what was going on.
"See for yourself."
Tang Bingwen handed the letter to them for review, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip of tea, and felt happy.
In the past five years, there have been many frictions between those three forces and the Tang Sect, and both sides have suffered casualties among their disciples. If it were not for the urgency of dealing with Bi He Ren, a bloody battle would have inevitably broken out.
To this day, even Tang Bingwen was somewhat surprised that their leader would make such a wrong move in the crucial game of the sect's development and lose everything.
The pupils of Yang Lie and Tang Jian suddenly shrank. These few short messages shocked them greatly.
"Trinity has pushed them to such an extent. Even if they haven't wiped them out, their foundation has been shaken. They won't be able to recover in a few decades, and there's a high probability that they will never recover."
Tang Jian couldn't calm down for a long time. He had seen many powerful and extraordinary people in his life, but the only one who was beyond his cognition and could be called a land immortal was the head of the Sanyi Sect, Jiang.
Until now, he could not imagine how the other party could come to visit him several hours before he delivered the message and returned to Tang Sect.
"That's good. They are seeking their own destruction, so we don't have to take action." A smile appeared on Yang Lie's lips.
"Pass the order down. From now on, all orders related to Trinity will be rejected."
Faced with a sect that is almost the most powerful in the world, Tang Bingwen feels it is necessary to prepare for certain aspects and eliminate hidden dangers.
If a disciple really took an order from the Trinity Sect accidentally, during a time of war, a bloody battle between the two sides would be a small matter, but tearing the alliance apart or even causing internal strife would undoubtedly be a big deal, and he might even become a sinner for all eternity.
When Tang Bingwen thought of this, he felt the situation was difficult and decided to take precautions in advance.
"Yes, Chief." Yang Lie and Tang Jian responded in unison.
Lu family.
In the study, Lu Jin was pouring tea and water for the old man and discussing with him the matter of collecting materials.
"Let me take a look?"
Mr. Lu took the list, glanced at the minerals and medicinal materials, and nodded in agreement:
"Just go back to our business and ask your uncle Wang to make the arrangements. Since this is what Patriarch Jiang wants, we'll just deliver it."
"Grandpa, this is absolutely not allowed. My uncle has promised not to accept rewards without merit. He gave Jin'er a large sum of money and said that after deducting expenses, the rest would be given to me."
Even though it was his own business, Lu Jin insisted on paying. He couldn't mess up the accounts because of his own selfish desires.
"Wow? Chief Jiang loves you so much?"
Mr. Lu drank the tea poured by his good grandson, smiled, and teased intentionally or unintentionally:
"I see you're not young anymore. Do you want your father to arrange a marriage for you? Is there a girl you like?"
"Master, that's not necessary."
Lu Jin's cheeks turned slightly red and she quickly declined.
"Okay, as you wish."
Mr. Lu asked him about the recent situation of the Trinity Sect: "Have you dealt with those guys who caused trouble for you?"
"Yes, it went smoothly. Our uncle didn't let them leave." Lu Jin told the truth.
Immediately, he took out the sword-raising gourd and the transparent cube to share his joy with the old man.
"Here, Grandpa, look, this is the magic weapon given to me by my senior brothers and uncles."
"Hmm? Good stuff."
Mr. Lu looked at the two completely different magical instruments and after learning their uses, he couldn't help but sigh:
"My dear grandson, he has really become the darling of the sect, and is loved by the senior brothers and Sect Master Jiang."
"You should stop being impatient and crazy, practice diligently, and don't disappoint their expectations of you. Do you understand?"
The old man smiled with satisfaction, returned the magic weapon, and rubbed Lu Jin's head. He felt proud to see that Lu Jin had made great progress.
"Yes, Master, please have some tea."
Lu Jin massaged the old man's bones and chatted with him about trivial matters until an hour later, when there was a gentle knock on the study door.
"Mr. Lu, Qiao Yue wants to see you."
"Oh? Come in quickly."
The door was opened, and Guard Qiao was about to report the news when he saw Lu Jin was there. He couldn't help but smile: "Master is here too?"
"Mr. Lu, the batch of goods that the Sanyi Sect commissioned to purchase has arrived at the dock. When do you think we should deliver it?"
"Let's do it today. After unloading the goods, we can hire some more people to deliver it to Chief Jiang."
Mr. Lu never drags his feet when doing things.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll do it right away." Guard Qiao followed the instructions and turned to leave.
Mr. Lu looked sideways at Lu Jin, asked the child to come closer, dusted off his clothes, straightened his sleeves, and said earnestly:
"It's time for you to go back and practice well, understand?"
"I know, Master. Jin'er won't dare to forget."
"My dear grandson, you have grown up. Okay, pack up and go back with Guard Qiao before it gets dark."
Mr. Lu rubbed Lu Jin's head, his kind face full of doting.
