In an instant, as the night deepened, Lu Jin and Lin Tianzheng jumped down from the hotel window. The height of a few meters posed no challenge for martial artists of their caliber.

I've heard that martial artists above the Transformation Realm can travel a thousand miles a day and remain unharmed even when encountering a deity.

The two men stared at each other with their fierce, fanged eyes, said nothing, and headed straight for their respective goals. However, the difference was that Lu Jin didn't take any weapons, while Lin Tian was carrying the long spear he had casually bought.

After all, Li Tianlei was also a master of internal strength. If he were armed and fought Lin Tianzheng bare-handed, he would inevitably suffer a loss. At this moment, the Ren family mansion was still brightly lit.

Inside the mourning hall, Madam Ren and her family were waiting for Lu Jin to arrive. As agreed, now that Anyang City had been unsealed, Lu Jin should take their Master Ren's remains on his way.

Today is already the seventh day after death. If we delay the appointed time, it will be too late.

"Ah Yang, what's going on? Why hasn't Master Lu arrived yet?" Xu Wenjing frowned, a bad feeling creeping into her heart. She immediately looked at Ren Yang, who was dressed in mourning clothes, and said, "Go and send someone to find your elder brother and have him call Master Lu over."

"Mother, there's no need for that. I don't think Brother Lu Jin is the kind of person who would act without thinking. We can just wait a little longer. My eldest brother is currently helping Commander Hu with his business."

Hearing this, Xu Wenjing's face turned even colder. "Our Ren family has never mingled with warlords for generations, but he broke the rules. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing."

Their conversation was overheard by Lu Jin, who had rushed over to kill Ren Zhenxing under the cover of night. At first, Lu Jin thought that Ren Zhenxing should be at home in bed at this time.

"Not in office? Running errands for Hu Qiang?"

Lu Jin raised an eyebrow, pondering where to find Ren Zhenxing, but before he could make a move, he heard a sudden burst of gunfire from within the city, like firecrackers going off.

Suddenly, everyone in the Ren family was quite frightened.

"What happened!" Xu Wenjing's face turned pale. "Uncle Fu, go and call Zhenxing back right away."

"Yes, madam."

The steward of the Ren family, Wang Fu, nodded respectfully and said something. The gunshot, which sounded like firecrackers, suddenly woke up countless people in the city. Everyone immediately closed their doors and windows tightly, for fear of accidentally hurting innocent people.

In Anyang County, and even in other places, such things often happen at night. In the past, people would watch the spectacle, but ever since someone was arrested and their body was never recovered after seeing something they shouldn't have, no one dares to look around anymore.

Upon hearing the gunshot, Lu Jin immediately rushed in the direction of the sound, as it came from Hu Qiang's residence. He had just overheard Ren Zhenxing carrying out an order for Hu Qiang.

Lu Jin vaguely felt that the gunshot was related to him.

Sure enough, in the dim city, under the faint light, Lu Jin spotted Ren Zhenxing leading a large number of thugs chasing after a bearded man.

Upon first glance, Lu Jin immediately recognized the man. It was this man who had dissuaded him when he first paid the registration fee for the martial arts competition and revealed his murderous intent.

"Bang bang bang!"

Ren Zhenxing held a Mauser pistol, his eyes filled with determination and madness. He moved quickly, creating a long distance between himself and the main force behind him. At the same time, he kept pulling the trigger. Fortunately, the man was skilled, and with the distance and the darkness, Ren Zhenxing's marksmanship was all just out of bounds, with bullets scattering everywhere!

Lu Jin withdrew his gaze and saw the two of them run into a dead end, so he immediately followed them.

In the dead-end alley, a wall more than ten meters high blocked the man's way. This made him grit his teeth. He immediately turned around, clutching his arm that had been grazed by a bullet, his eyes filled with madness. He was ready to fight to the death.

His strength was far inferior to Ren Zhenxing's; otherwise, he wouldn't have had to flee in such a sorry state.

"Zhang San, take off your disguise."

Seeing that Zhang San had no way out, Ren Zhenxing's lips curled up, and he lowered the arm holding the pistol, looking like he had the victory in the bag. Hearing this, Lu Jin, who was not far from him, raised an eyebrow.

Zhang San?

Isn't he the chivalrous thief who stole Hu Qiang's slush fund, as mentioned in the wanted poster?

At the end of the competition today, didn't Hu Qiang announce that Zhang San had been executed on the spot?

But soon, Lu Jin understood everything; someone had become a scapegoat.

"How did you know me? And how did you know I would come today?"

Seeing that he had been exposed, Zhang San tore off his beard and rubbed his face, kneading out many mud balls. Immediately, the man's true appearance was revealed: an ordinary face, but full of vigor.

"Commander Hu is indeed wise."

Ren Zhenxing said with emotion, "I knew you hadn't left Anyang. Commander Hu made a lot of money by holding the martial arts competition. Since you haven't left Anyang, you certainly won't give up. So Commander Hu ordered us to guard you, and sure enough, we found you."

"Tell me where you hid the money you stole from Commander Hu last time. You only gave a small portion to those troublemakers. Tell me and I'll give you a quick death."

"Bah, you warlord lackeys, you've fallen right into your trap."

Zhang San spat out, "If you want to know, go ask the King of Hell."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang San moved swiftly and threw a punch at Ren Zhenxing. This made Ren Zhenxing's expression darken, and he immediately put away his gun, demonstrating his strength.

A terrifying fist intent and force erupted in the alley. With a loud bang, Zhang San's punching arm made a crisp sound, went limp, and he flew backward, spitting blood, before crashing heavily to the ground.

"A trivial skill!"

"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences. If you're not willing to talk, then there's no point in talking!"

At this moment, although Zhang San was filled with resentment, he could only curse Ren Zhenxing, "You warlord lackeys, one day you will all be brought to justice."

"Hmph, what do you know? I've already married Commander Hu's daughter. When the time comes, our Ren family will fully support Commander Hu. With guns and money, a mere Anyang County won't be enough."

"And when the time comes, I will be the King of all of western Hunan... no... the King of Xiangzhou!"

"What a grand ambition to be both a lackey and an ingrate!" Zhang San sneered, just about to close his eyes in despair.

But the next second, he saw Lu Jin's figure suddenly appear in the night. His tall figure, coupled with his blue face and fangs, made Zhang San's pupils widen.

Standing behind Ren Zhenxing, two heads taller than him, he looked like a demon, giving Zhang San a great shock and causing him to involuntarily shift his body.

Compared to Ren Zhenxing, he felt that the creature behind him was more terrifying, resembling a ruthless ghost.

"What are you looking at!"

Ren Zhenxing frowned, noticing Zhang San's unusual behavior. Zhang San struggled to raise his arm, pointed at Lu Jin, swallowed hard, and said tremblingly, "Look behind you."

"Trying to teach a fish to swim? You think you can fool me?! Go to hell!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ren Zhenxing pointed the gun at Zhang San's head, ready to pull the trigger. Unexpectedly, at that moment, he felt a chill run down his spine, and the hairs on his body stood on end. A chill ran from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.

When he suddenly turned around, he saw Lu Jin's blue-faced, fanged face, and his heart pounded with fear. Before he could react, Lu Jin's fists had already been thrown out.

Carrying the violent power to move mountains and suppress seas, and with the roar of dragons and elephants, its overwhelming momentum left Ren Zhenxing stunned on the spot.

Bajiquan! Liditongtian Cannon!

boom!

In the blink of an eye, Ren Zhenxing's chest visibly caved in, and a mouthful of blood gushed from his mouth. He flew several meters away like a wild goose falling from the sky, crashing heavily into the wall. Suddenly, a deep pit appeared in the wall, leaving Zhang San, who was lying on the ground, dumbfounded.

At this moment, Lu Jin lowered his voice, and his indifferent tone quietly resounded.

"You just said... what kind of king do you want to be?"
