"I stayed."
Lu Huizhong raised her hand and stroked her chin. "The Liu family hot pot restaurant has pretty good service, the hot pot tastes very good, and the identity of that Miss Liu... she is the eldest daughter of the Liu family who ran away from her arranged marriage."
"The Liu family of Xiangxi? They do look somewhat similar."
Lu Huizhong's reminder brought to Gao Yingcai's memory that the young lady, Liu, came from the Liu family in western Hunan. She had awakened an innate ability during her cultivation, leading her to abandon her family's ancestral corpse-driving technique, causing conflict with her family. Later, unwilling to marry the eldest son of a landlord she had never met, she ran away…
Gao Yingcai and Lu Huizhong knew this because the Liu family had asked the Tang Clan to help them find out about Miss Liu. However, Tang Clan disciples rarely cared about missions that only involved gathering intelligence and did not involve killing people.
As an assassin sect, the Tang Clan also has strong intelligence gathering capabilities and is responsible for helping those in need to gather intelligence, and their prices are cheaper than those of Jianghu Xiaozhan.
of course.
In terms of intelligence gathering, the Tang Clan is no match for Jianghu Xiaozhan.
"Alright, Xiao Lu, you can stay."
Seeing that Lu Huizhong had volunteered, and considering that she worked at the Liu's Hot Pot restaurant and could keep an eye on Miss Liu... as for whether or not to pass on Miss Liu's information to the Liu family—
It seems that none of them accepted the task from the Liu family to investigate Miss Liu.
"Sect Leader, what should Tang Clan do in the future?" Lu Huizhong nodded, but also asked about the future of Tang Clan.
The Dan Shi technique could be broken by Jiang Liu.
This was evident to everyone present.
More importantly, Tang Bingwen personally confirmed that the method to crack the code could also be passed on to others!
This means that Tang Clan disciples risk their lives to cultivate the Pill Devouring Technique, but it won't be of much use to Jiang Liu or his future disciples!
The inheritance of Dan Shi...
Is there any point in it?
"I intend to make the process of inheriting the Dan Shi technique public."
After a long silence, Tang Bingwen finally spoke his mind: "The world is changing, and so is spiritual practice. Since we can't change others, we can only change ourselves."
"Sect Leader, this!?"
Tang Houren exclaimed in alarm, "The cultivation of the Pill Devouring Technique is fraught with peril, with nine out of ten chances of death. If it becomes public, what if our disciples try it in secret? Besides, the Pill Devouring Technique is only for inner disciples..."
“My mind is made up, there’s no need to persuade me further. But you don’t need to worry either, I won’t go public right now, I’ll find a good time.”
Tang Bingwen thought of the person Jiang Liu had recommended.
Zhao Yingkong.
Although he had never seen this person in person, based on his understanding of Jiang Liu over the past two days, the other party would not make baseless accusations. He figured that Zhao Yingkong must be exceptionally talented.
Seeing their sect leader's stance, the others could only agree...
···
With the departure of the Tang Clan, more than half a month has quietly passed.
The Northern Expeditionary Army marched north.
In Yuhang City, the Smiling Tiger had already fled for his life, but unfortunately, before reaching Tianjin, his vehicle overturned and hit a sharp rock.
He died!
Those who have lost their "past" are not tolerated by heaven and earth, and will die by accident if they are not careful.
Meanwhile, Chameleon remained in the city, leading hundreds of soldiers to Cultural Street, demanding that Jiang Liu, Ru Hui, and all the other extraordinary individuals on the street join the army to fight against the rebels heading north.
"You really don't want to fight?"
The chameleon's tone turned somber.
Why should I help you?
Jiang Liu yawned. "We're just ordinary people, not suited to be soldiers, and we don't know how to fight."
"Don't you understand the principle that everyone has a responsibility in times of crisis?" The chameleon made a "disappointed and aggrieved" face.
"You didn't think of us when you were enjoying your life with that smiling tiger, but now you want us to take bullets for you? Aren't you dreaming? During the time you were in charge of Yuhang, it was our Confucian Society's All-Knowing Security Team and the chivalrous Qingbai Shuangjiao who were working together to crack down on the criminal gangs in the city."
Jiang Liu yawned -(__)(-.-)(~O~)……(-.-), revealing a lazy air, and called to Lu Jin, Hong Guniang, and Gao Huan, who were already used to calling her "Bai Jiao", "Let's go, don't bother with this annoying thing!"
"Do you think those rebels who marched north will let you go? Or let the people of the city go?"
The chameleon menacingly blocked their path, shouting, "Throughout history, which of those who rebelled in the name of uprisings didn't speak sweetly on the surface but were ruthless and vicious in private? And which one didn't massacre the entire city? Do you really think you can stay out of it?"
"Let's wait until they show any intention of massacring the city. I will kill their leader and elect one, and I will kill them one by one."
Jiang Liu remained resolute, staring intently at the chameleon, and declared emphatically, "If I were you, I wouldn't think of fighting a losing battle. Instead, I would leave Yuhang, preserve our strength, and temporarily lead our troops northward in retreat."
"Let's see who dares to leave!"
Seeing Jiang Liu slap away a soldier blocking his way, Chameleon felt as if he were being slapped in the face. With a command, the hundreds of soldiers raised their guns and aimed at Jiang Liu and his men.
Upon seeing this, the supernatural beings on the street channeled their Qi to empower themselves, and as soon as these soldiers showed any inclination to pull the trigger, they immediately slaughtered them.
Jiang Liu raised his hand, signaling them to calm down, then turned to look at the chameleon and said quietly, "How about we make a bet?"
"What are you gambling?"
Chameleon's eyes narrowed, wondering what Jiang Liu was up to.
"I'll bet on whether your men can shoot me dead."
Jiang Liu smiled coldly, "I don't let the Confucian Society members on the street take action either. I never bother others with problems that I can solve myself."
If you can kill me, everything will be as you wish.
"But if your men can't kill me, then I'll kill you in front of your men, and order the other officers in the city to be arrested and killed one by one."
"Want to bet or not?"
# Chapter 440 Banajim
bet?
Or not to gamble?
The chameleon's expression shifted between light and shadow.
If possible.
He wanted to order his men to fire directly.
But whenever he recalls the battle between Jiang Liu and Zhang Zhiwei at the martial arts tournament, he feels uncertain.
The soldiers on the scene, holding guns and aiming at the river, were all trembling.
Because they all know it!
gun!
Jiang Liu is invincible!
"Chameleon, give me a straight answer, don't waste my time."
Jiang Liu twisted his neck and moved his wrists, making crackling sounds. He then took the iron rod that was bound to his back with magnetic force and swung it gently. Invisible waves of wind spread outwards, causing the chameleon's face to tremble and making the soldiers holding guns tense.
boom!
Gunshots rang out!
Stimulated by the breeze stirred up by Jiang Liu's baton, someone, in a moment of tension, actually pulled the trigger.
A bullet hovered silently at the back of Jiang Liu's head.
"It seems you've chosen to 'gamble'."
Jiang Liu grinned, revealing a playful smile.
Seeing this, the chameleon's expression changed, and he yelled at them, "Who fired the shot? Step forward!"
however.
As soon as Chameleon finished speaking, Jiang Liu swung his stick.
Snapped!
In an instant!
The head was shattered by a single blow, scattered into pieces, the brain matter disintegrating into a mass of tofu-like fluid, dotted with a touch of pink, teeth flying everywhere, sparks flying, revealing a few golden glints.
Poor, confused chameleon, how can it change color without a face?
This sudden scene frightened all the soldiers so much that they dared not move. When Jiang Liu turned around, they all swallowed hard and retreated.
But the path of retreat had already been blocked by the strange people on Cultural Street.
Boom!
One soldier dropped his gun, knelt down, and kowtowed to Jiang Liu, crying out, "Chairman Jiang! Master Jiang! Spare me! I have an eighty-year-old mother and a newborn son; I cannot die!"
One has two.
Before long, the hundreds of soldiers dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy.
Jiang Liu could catch bullets even with his back to them, so if he dared to fire a shot while facing them, that mourning stick would smash their heads!
Not to mention, there are so many strange people on the street, each with magic and unique methods. In addition, the chameleon can no longer change color... Oh, no, the chameleon is dead. They are not the chameleon's hired killers. Why do they still insist on fighting against Jiang Liu?
They don't want to die.
Lu Jin and Hong Guniang exchanged a glance, then with a wave of their hands, they activated their magnetic field, pulling all the guns on the ground, as well as the pistols and grenades hidden on the soldiers' bodies, toward their side.
"You don't need to kneel before me. It's just that the chameleon gambled with me and lost. That's all."
Jiang Liu had no intention of taking action against these opportunistic soldiers.
After the soldiers fled from the Cultural Street area, Jiang Liu immediately used the sincere spiritual light of his ancestral aperture to contact Zhuge Yu and asked him to summon the Na Du Tong security team to arrest all the other warlords, generals, and officials in the city.
Zhuge Yu, who was attending a class at Mingxin Academy, was startled and hurriedly asked, "President, has the operation been brought forward?"
"Plans can't keep up with changes. Chameleon Shangru Society is coming to cause trouble, but it's not a big problem. I've already dealt with it... Most of Chameleon's forces are fighting against the Northern Expeditionary Army in the Fuyang County area. We've captured the warlord generals in Yuhang City to undermine their morale."
Jiang Liu succinctly explained the reason.
