Chapter 39: Destruction
Hearing this, Luo Zhenwu's expression eased slightly, he sighed softly, and said:
"Master Chen, my trust in you has never diminished. You are not a selfish person because you can offer me a first-class technique. But the people in the gang have complicated minds and it is difficult to satisfy everyone. I can only go with the flow and cannot make decisions on my own."

"Today, Hall Master Qi came to my house and said that you had used up three bottles of Essence Pills in a month, and that the business of Shennong Hall had been affected. He was quite complaining, and it took me a while to calm him down..."

As Luo Zhenwu spoke, he paid attention to Chen Yuan's expression. Seeing his expression change slightly, he was certain in his heart and smiled:

“But I told him that Hall Master Chen has extraordinary powers, which is different from ordinary people. It is normal for the elixir to be consumed faster. Moreover, Hall Master Chen is wholeheartedly considering the gang and practicing martial arts so that he can better serve the gang.”

"The Sanjiang Gang has been making provocative moves recently, and this time they even massacred a workshop. The gang members are panicking. If you can avenge your brothers who died, not only will Master Qi no longer have any complaints, but it will also be a natural progression for you to take over the position of Master of the Law Enforcement Hall in the future."

Chen Yuan was surprised:
"Master of the Law Enforcement Hall?"

Luo Zhenwu smiled and said:
"That's right. Master Chen is so young. Will you stay in your house to practice martial arts all your life without going out? There is no one better than you among the younger generation of Fu Hu Gang. Not to mention the master of the Law Enforcement Hall, if you can break through the transformation stage, the position of the gang leader will definitely belong to you!"

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed, and then he smiled:

"Thank you for your appreciation, but I don't have such big ambitions. As long as I can practice martial arts well, I will be satisfied."

Luo Zhenwu was stunned, then said:

"Master Chen is indifferent to fame and fortune and is devoted to martial arts. No wonder he has made such rapid progress. Since you are not interested in the position of the Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, I promise you that as long as you take action this time, you won't have to worry about these mundane affairs in the future. How do you think?"

Chen Yuan smiled and said:

"Thank you for your understanding, Gang Master. Which branch of the Sanjiang Gang should we target this time? Please give me your instructions, Gang Master."

Luo Zhenwu frowned and said:

"I haven't thought about it yet. Does Master Chen have any ideas?"

Chen Yuan said calmly:
"Master Qi said that the business of Shennong Hall has been affected. I have received so many bottles of Essence Pills from him, so I have to show my appreciation. I will destroy Jishidi Hall. This will be my way of apologizing to Master Qi."

His tone was light, but the content of his words was shocking, as if he had forgotten that he had just refused to go on the grounds of his low strength.

Luo Zhenwu had also seen the world, but when he heard this, his pupils shrank and he said:
"Master Chen, you are too serious. I once said that Shennong Hall would provide you with the elixirs you need to practice martial arts. As long as I am the leader of the gang, this promise will not be invalidated. How can you say I am sorry?"

Chen Yuan said:

"That being said, my monthly medicine expenses are indeed a bit higher, which has caused a lot of trouble for Master Qi. By destroying Jishitang, we can not only avenge the brothers in Workshop No. 3, but also eliminate the biggest competitor for Shennongtang. Why not do it?"

Luo Zhenwu frowned and said:

"Jishi Hall Master Yang Huaizhan is a veteran Gangjin warrior who has been at the peak of Gangjin for more than ten years. He is highly skilled in martial arts. Hall Master Chen, are you sure?"

Chen Yuan smiled slightly and said:
"The leader has already said that I have supernatural powers and can fight against the demon tiger. If I can't even take down Yang Huaizhan, then wouldn't all the essence pills I took be wasted?"

Luo Zhenwu smiled and said:
"I'm overthinking. I'll wait for good news from Hall Master Chen. If we can destroy Jishitang, Hall Master Qi will offer you four, five, or six bottles of Essence Pills, not to mention three, without any complaints!"

After saying that, he said goodbye and left, and Chen Yuan stood up to see him off.

Luo Zhenwu said as he walked:

"I'll arrange some personnel right away. When does Master Chen plan to take action?"

"The sooner the better. Let's do it tonight."

"Good! The Sanjiang Gang would never have thought that we would launch a counterattack just after receiving the news from Workshop A-3. The target is still within the county city, and they must be unprepared."

"The government..."

"Don't worry, I've already arranged everything. There will be no officials to interfere."

"The boss has thought it through carefully. The timing and people are all right. Yang Huaizhan is nothing to worry about!"

……

Chen Yuan accompanied Luo Zhenwu out of the house. As he watched him and his entourage leave, the smile on his face gradually faded.

He didn't want to get involved in the fight between the Fuhu Gang and the Sanjiang Gang, but Luo Zhenwu had already said so much, so he had no choice but to agree.

Moreover, Master Qi was quite resentful of him for using three bottles of Essence Pills every month. In order to have more pills available in the future, he had to take action once.

Logically speaking, the Liuyang Gong is enough to be the unique martial art of a gang. It is priceless and it is not difficult to sell it for tens of thousands of taels of silver. Chen Yuan only takes three bottles of Essence Pills every month, which is not much.

However, Liuyang Gong is the unique martial art of the Fuhu Gang, and the elixir comes from Shennong Hall, so it is natural that Hall Master Qi would not be willing to do so.

In this case, he destroyed Jishidiang and gave an explanation to Master Qi.

Moreover, the fight between the Fuhu Gang and the Sanjiang Gang was getting more and more intense. If he destroyed a branch of the Sanjiang Gang and made a great contribution, Luo Zhenwu would definitely not let him take action again.

By then, he can concentrate on practicing martial arts without having to worry about getting involved in the dispute between the two gangs.

When he reaches the peak of Huajin and transforms the Qi in his body into mana, the Fuhu Gang will no longer be of much concern to Chen Yuan. …

It's late at night and everything is silent.

There is a curfew in Chongxinfang tonight. Members of the Fuhu Gang are not allowed to move around freely. There are guards patrolling the neighborhood.

The entrance of Baibing Hall was brightly lit, and hundreds of warriors dressed in black and holding weapons gathered in the school grounds behind the hall.

The leader was Chen Yuan. In front of him, Wei Wuding and two other internal force deacons stood with their hands behind their backs.

Chen Yuan glanced casually and saw familiar faces such as Luo Hai, Yu Zhenchuan, Lai Zhong, etc. in the crowd.

For this operation, Luo Zhenwu prepared three internal strength deacons, eight marrow refining commanders, thirty bone refining warriors, and sixty skin refining warriors for him.

The number of people seems to be large, but their target is a branch of the Sanjiang Gang, which seems a bit stretched.

However, considering that this was a sneak attack and it happened on the busy East Street, where there were rarely any troublemakers on weekdays, Jishidiang’s defenses should not be strong, so Chen Yuan did not ask for more manpower.

He looked up and saw a thick dark cloud passing by, blocking the already dim moonlight, and the sky was as dark as ink.

"leave!"

Chen Yuan put on a black scarf to mask his face, and everyone followed him and walked out of the parade ground. Several other people pulled two large carts and slipped out of Chongxinfang through a small door and went to East Street.

They had no intention of hiding their identities. In the Yuzhou underworld, the only ones who dared to attack the Sanjiang Gang were the Fuhu Gang, so they could not hide their identities.

The black scarf and mask were only used to cover up the truth and give the government room to conceal their crimes.

Everyone knows what is hidden under this skin, but without this skin, they will completely break off relations with the Sanjiang Gang and force them to have a decisive battle with the Fuhu Gang.

The group walked along the remote streets and alleys and came to East Street.

Even late at night, there were still pedestrians walking on East Street, and those brothels were brightly lit and bustling with people.

Fortunately, Jishidiang was far away from the brothel, and the Fuhu Gang did not alarm those people who were seeking pleasure.

Chen Yuan glanced at Wei Wuding, who understood and turned around and waved his hand. A dozen warriors dispersed and knocked out all the passers-by they met along the way.

These people were the elite members of Baibingtang. Their movements were quick and decisive, without making any noise.

Jishidiang covers a vast area and is connected together. It is divided into seven or eight courtyards, with dozens of houses, three back doors for entry and exit, and a huge medicine warehouse.

Wei Wuding looked at Chen Yuan, and Chen Yuan nodded.

Wei Wuding immediately turned around and made a few gestures. The crowd was divided into three groups. Ten leather refining warriors stayed outside the main gate, twenty leather refining warriors patrolled around, and the others climbed over the wall one after another and entered the backyard of Jishidi.

First, eight marrow refining warriors went in to explore the way, followed by Chen Yuan and three internal strength deacons, and finally the gang members in the bone and skin refining realms.

Perhaps because East Street was prosperous and police patrolled frequently, the Sanjiang Gang did not arrange guards to patrol outside Jishiditang.

The guards in the courtyard were also quite lax, and were silently taken care of by the marrow-refining warrior who broke in first.

But the Sanjiang Gang had been around for more than a decade, and they had sentries in the courtyard. As soon as the Fuhu Gang warriors opened the back door from the inside, a shrill cry pierced the night sky:

"There's a thief! Kill him!"

His tracks were exposed, so Chen Yuan simply stopped trying to hide them. He drew out his long sword and shouted:
"Kill them all, leaving no one alive!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd rushed into the houses and hacked anyone they saw. The sounds of shouting and screaming were endless.

Chen Yuan did not take any action. He used the Shadow Step and flew to the roof. He narrowed his eyes and looked around.

"Who dares to come to Jishidi Hall and cause trouble?"

Suddenly, a loud shout was heard, and a figure rushed out from a quiet courtyard, holding a long sword, dancing with sword shadows, stabbing three people to death in succession, causing the Fu Hu Gang warriors who were in the mood to kill to scatter and retreat.

Chen Yuan's eyes lit up, and he tiptoed and landed in front of the figure.

The figure stopped and Chen Yuan looked at him carefully. It was a fifty-year-old man with five long strands of beard floating in front of his chest, a gaunt face, a plain white short coat, a three-foot long sword in his hand, and a pair of white socks on his feet. He was not wearing shoes.

"Are you the 'Deadly Scholar' Yang Huaizhan?"

The fifty-year-old man looked at the masked Chen Yuan with a vigilant look on his face. He took two steps back, made a sword gesture, and shouted:

"Who are you?"

Chen Yuan swung his long sword, and a three-inch sword aura slowly emerged on the blade. He said:
"Kill your man!"
