Gou Zai Wu Dao Chao Shi Xing Nian Da Gong

A gaunt, masked man entered the ship's deck, which was empty except for occasional short gasps from some of the rooms.

The man walked at a leisurely pace, and as he passed a cabin, the door creaked open.

"blacksnake!"

A deep voice rang out.

"Second Master's men?"

"Come in and talk."

The man then entered the cabin.

A middle-aged man dressed as a servant, with a shrewd appearance, was standing inside the room.

"Where are the things?" The gaunt man pulled off his mask and asked coldly. It was none other than Tian Wenchang, the vice leader of the Black Snake Gang.

"Don't be hasty, Chief Tian, ​​the item is here. However, you must finish what Second Master asked you to do first," the middle-aged man said expressionlessly.

A flash of anger crossed Tian Wenchang's eyes as he said, "Give me the item, and I will naturally kill Wang Jin."

The middle-aged man shook his head. "What if you take the things and run away?"

"You," Tian Wenchang was about to get angry when suddenly there was a noise from next door.

It seemed as if some bandits outside the window had spotted someone in the room, rushed in through the window, and then suddenly went silent for some unknown reason.

"Is someone next door?"

Tian Wenchang asked with a grim expression. He hadn't expected the other party to be so careless; if their words were overheard, they would be doomed.

"He was just an old man. I took care of him easily."

The middle-aged man said nonchalantly.

With that, he threw a punch, and the hardwood cabin wall shattered, creating a huge hole. The splinters of wood swept across the adjacent cabin like arrows, pinning a pirate to the opposite wall as if pierced by a thousand arrows.

Tian Wenchang's eyes narrowed, and a hint of apprehension flashed across his face.

The person before him dared to bargain, clearly possessing considerable confidence. That one punch alone revealed him to be a seasoned expert in the Bone and Tendon realm. No wonder he's the Second Master of the Wang family; he actually keeps such a master under his command. No wonder he dares to risk everything in the power struggle among the inner city's bigwigs!

"Huh? Where's the old man?"

The middle-aged man glanced around the room and exclaimed in surprise.

Tian Wenchang quickly peeked through the hole and saw the door of the next room shaking. It was clear that the old man had been frightened by the bandits and had opened the door to escape.

"I'll get rid of him."

He left a message, then opened the door and was about to chase after her.

sizzle~~

A faint light seemed to flash in the air, and a slight whistling sound of wind breaking could be heard.

Tian Wenchang froze, instantly stunned, staring blankly at an ordinary old man standing at the door.

Images flashed through his mind, all of them beautiful moments he had experienced, but these images drifted away from him like fallen leaves.

"What a sharp knife!"

His lips moved slightly, then he fell to the ground, his head rolling like a ball at the feet of the middle-aged man in the room.

"What?"

The middle-aged man was terrified. He reached out, and a pair of Emei daggers appeared in his palm! Then, he stared intently at the door and cautiously moved towards the window. Since his opponent could kill Tian Wenchang with a single strike, he could certainly kill him too. Therefore, he instantly decided to flee.

A few breaths felt like half a day. The middle-aged man finally came to the window. His face lit up with joy. He reached out and opened the window to find a box under the window, and suddenly grabbed the bundle inside.

Just then, the hatch exploded with a loud bang!

A blade of light, as swift as lightning, slashed towards the middle-aged man, arriving in front of him in the blink of an eye.

"Wow~~"

The middle-aged man let out a strange cry, twisted his body, and crossed his Emei Daggers to block the blade's light.

Only then did he realize that the person wielding the knife opposite him was none other than the old man from the next room. He was utterly shocked. Wasn't that old man just an ordinary tailor? How had he become such a master? Could it be that the old man had foreseen and arranged for this expert?

The middle-aged man's mind raced with doubts. Before he could figure things out, the old man opposite him unleashed a flurry of attacks, his blade flashing. The middle-aged man dared not be distracted, focusing all his attention on using his Emei daggers to desperately defend himself.

After exchanging blows for a while, the middle-aged man realized that the old man wasn't as powerful as he had imagined; his cultivation level might even be lower than his own, and he was only skilled in swordsmanship. This enraged him, and he immediately mustered all his strength, attempting to use his cultivation level to break through the opponent's exquisite and swift swordsmanship.

His method worked; the Emei dagger forcefully knocked the long sword away, and the old man seemed unable to withstand the force, his feet slipping.

"Now is the time!"

A cold glint flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, and the Emei dagger in his hand pierced straight into the old man's throat like a sharp arrow.

Clang~~

At that moment, the old man suddenly steadied himself, slashed out with his sword, and the blade disappeared from sight, leaving only a barely perceptible glint of cold light.

"Exquisite swordsmanship!"

The middle-aged man was terrified. He leaned back with all his might, and as the blade flashed past, his hands, which were holding the Emei daggers, flew into the air.

"Ah~~"

He screamed and retreated rapidly, trying to escape through the window.

However, the old man followed closely, and then swung his knife again, a cold glint flashing across the blade.

The middle-aged man froze, his eyes widening in disbelief, but the blood from his neck was already gushing out uncontrollably, as if being squeezed.

"Second Master? The Black Snake Gang?"

Zhou Fugan's expression was solemn. There seemed to be a lot more to this ambush than met the eye. After killing these two people, they had to be dealt with thoroughly.

He then quickly searched the two men, finding only a package on Tian Wenchang. He then went to the large wooden chest by the window, where he saw layers of weapons inside, with a bundle on top. The middle-aged man had been detained because he wanted this bundle.

Zhou Fugan grabbed the bundle, didn't even look at it closely, stuffed the two packages together, tied them to his stomach, and covered them with his clothes.

Then, he looked outside, thought for a moment, and put the two bodies into a wooden box.

...

Kill, kill!

At this moment, the deck was filled with the sounds of fighting. The pirates and the guards were hacking at each other, and people were falling or falling into the water from time to time.

Zhou Sheng killed a river bandit with a single slash, then leaned against the wall, panting heavily. He was surrounded by a squad of five or six bodyguards who looked after each other and attacked any river bandits that approached.

Suddenly, the wall of the cabin not far away exploded with a loud bang, startling everyone.

Then a thin man dressed in black and masked rushed out of the hole, dragging a large wooden box in his hand.

Zhou Sheng's heart skipped a beat when he saw this, and he immediately knew that this was a powerful opponent he couldn't handle. Just as he was about to quietly retreat, he saw the man turn his head and his eyes meet Zhou Sheng's.

Zhou Sheng's expression froze for a moment, then he regained his composure, stopping his retreating steps.

Boom~~

The man suddenly threw the wooden crate onto a nearby pirate boat. He then jumped aboard as well.

"Set sail! Let's go!"

The man gave the order in a deep voice.

The three bandits left on the boat hesitated slightly upon seeing this. They recognized the man as a distinguished guest of the chieftain, but that didn't mean they could order him around.

However, before they could speak, there was a thud, and the leader of the bandits had already been beheaded.

"Go, or die!"

The man said coldly.

"Yes, sir!"

The remaining pirates quickly set sail and disappeared into the thick fog.
