When I first entered high school, the system insisted that I was destined to be an emperor in my lat

"The Azure Dragon Society?"

The river breeze remained calm and still.

"Young man, you don't know this."

The burly man looked around and lowered his voice, "This black market was originally a no-man's-land, and even the authorities only symbolically regulated it."

"The Black Tiger Gang used to come and collect protection money, but they had rules. They only collected from shops, and it had nothing to do with us ordinary martial artists who set up stalls. Everyone lived in peace."

"But ever since the Black Tiger Gang was wiped out, the Green Dragon Society has expanded rapidly, swallowing up the black market in one gulp!"

"Now look what's happened!"

The burly man gritted his teeth, "Setting up a stall requires paying exorbitant fees, and they take away most of our daily revenue!"

"I work so hard selling meat all day, and most of it ends up in those bastards' pockets! Isn't that killing people?!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng frowned and asked, "Isn't anyone going to do anything about it?"

"Tube?"

The burly man gave a bitter laugh and shook his head helplessly.

"The Azure Dragon Society is the largest gang in Linchuan City; their power is terrifying!"

"I heard that their leader is almost at the peak of the fourth rank, and is about to break through to the fifth rank."

"Fifth rank! That's the threshold for a Grandmaster. Who dares to provoke them?"

"The other mercenaries who set up stalls can deliver their goods to medicine merchants or weapons merchants. They have connections and can buy the goods directly at low prices, so they don't have to suffer this kind of treatment by setting up stalls."

"It's just us meat sellers left. Nobody buys from us, so we can only keep hanging around here."

"We lose money every day we set up shop, but if we don't set up shop, what will our family eat?"

"That damned Azure Dragon Society, they'll be struck by lightning sooner or later!"

The burly man cursed and swore, chopping the cutting board with his knife with loud thuds.

Jiang Feng lowered his eyes, his gaze growing increasingly somber.

The Azure Dragon Society...

He had just reprimanded the other party a while ago.

Instead of backing down, those guys became even more arrogant.

And that old geezer Long Teng, he's already trying to break through to the fifth rank?

Jiang Feng knew very well that there was a formidable chasm between the fourth and fifth ranks.

That is the dividing line between a Grandmaster and a Great Grandmaster; the quality and quantity of their true energy are completely incomparable.

He is not afraid of any fourth-rank martial artist now, but if he were to face a fifth-rank martial artist, there is only one word for him—run.

"Uncle, I'll take all the meat."

Jiang Feng suddenly spoke, pointing to the remaining half of the pork on the cutting board.

The burly man was stunned: "All...all of it? That's over two hundred pounds!"

"I want them all."

Jiang Feng scanned the QR code to pay, giving a little more than the market price. "The extra amount is on me, treating Uncle to drinks."

"Oh dear! I can't accept this!"

The burly man was both surprised and delighted. He rubbed his hands together and thanked him repeatedly, his rough face beaming with joy. "Young man, you're so generous! So incredibly generous!"

After putting the money away, he glanced around, then suddenly leaned closer and lowered his voice even further:

"Brother, seeing that you're an honest person, I'll offer you a word of advice."

"If you're free lately, avoid going to places like Linchuan City where things are tense."

"Oh? Is something going to happen?"

Jiang Feng asked.

"I heard that old bastard Long Teng officially went into seclusion a couple of days ago, focusing all his efforts on becoming a fifth-grade Grandmaster!"

"The one currently in charge of the Azure Dragon Society is his son, Long Feiyang."

"Long Feiyang?"

"Yeah! That kid's incredibly arrogant!"

The burly man shook his head, still shaken, and said, "I don't know what triggered him recently. He's been in seclusion, but lately he's been breaking through like a bolt of lightning. I heard his martial arts realm is almost at the fourth rank, eighth star!"

"and!"

The burly man paused, a chill creeping into his voice, "He announced that he's going to kill someone."

Jiang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Kill someone?"

"That's right!"

The burly man pondered for a moment, then slapped his thigh and said, "It seems to be... what was his name again... right, Jiang Feng! That's Jiang Feng!"

"That kid said he'd not only kill Jiang Feng, but also his whole family!"

"Tsk tsk, so young, yet so ruthless, even more vicious than his father!"

The air seemed to chill in that instant.

Jiang Feng stood still, his face expressionless, but deep within his eyes, a strong killing intent had already gathered!

Kill him.

They also want to kill his whole family.

This is Long Feiyang.

There is already a way to die!

The burly man, completely unaware that the person in front of him was "Jiang Feng," continued to ramble on and on, lamenting, "Of the four major gangs in Linchuan City, the Black Tiger Gang has been wiped out, and many people say it was Long Feiyang who did it!"

"The Azure Dragon Society is still relentlessly suppressing the Qiangsheng Group. I reckon that once Long Teng emerges from seclusion, the first group he'll target will be the Qiangsheng Group!"

"I just don't know who Jiang Feng is, that Long Feiyang is so interested in him."

"If I were that kid, I would have fled Linchuan City overnight in terror!"

Jiang Feng did not respond.

He simply nodded, picked up the packaged beast meat, and walked into the depths of the black market with a gloomy expression.

Long Feiyang.

Fourth rank, eight stars.

We must kill his entire family.

well.

It seems the last time I gave them a stern warning, so mild that they thought they were easy prey.

As for Long Teng's seclusion to strive for the fifth rank.

A cold glint flashed in Jiang Feng's eyes.

This is indeed bad news, but on the other hand, a fifth-rank cultivator's seclusion can last anywhere from ten days to several months.

During this period, the Azure Dragon Society was leaderless, with only Long Feiyang, a fourth-rank, seventh-star official, in charge.

That would actually be his opportunity.

About ten minutes later, Jiang Feng stopped in front of the Jishetang shop.

He frowned.

It was deserted.

It's too deserted.

Last time I came, there was a long queue in front of Jishetang. Customers buying pills lined up from the store entrance all the way to the alley entrance. It was a very popular scene.

But today, there wasn't a soul in sight at the door; it was so deserted it was as if the door was closed.

Has even Jishetang been affected?

Jiang Feng stepped into the shop.

Behind the counter, a woman in a white apothecary robe was lying there listlessly, her hands supporting her chin, her fingers tapping the countertop idly, clearly bored.

Hearing footsteps at the door, the woman jumped up, instinctively flashing a professional smile:

"Welcome! Are you here to buy pills? We have Golden Foundation Establishment Pills and..."

She was halfway through her sentence when she recognized who it was.

Lin Youwei's eyes lit up instantly, her previous drowsiness vanished, and she exclaimed with delight, "Jiang Feng!"

"What are you doing here?!"
