After vomiting for a while, Long Changsheng forced himself to look at the bloody scene again.
“Patriarch!
It’s the Four Seas Gang!”
Jiang Chengwu bent down and picked up a token.
The two traditional characters for ‘Four Seas’ were carved on it.
“This is bad!
The Four Seas Gang must have taken advantage of Master Jiang’s absence to kidnap his only living relative!”
The realization struck Long Changsheng.
“What?
How dare the Four Seas Gang!
I’ll send my men to wipe them out right now!”
Chu Tianba was furious.
Only something like this could have provoked such immense killing intent from Jiang Ning.
Otherwise, with Jiang Ning’s benevolent nature, he would never have committed such a heinous act!
“Boss!
We should help Master Jiang clean up the scene now.
Otherwise, if the authorities investigate, even if they determine it was self-defense, he’ll still be labeled a violent thug!”
Ancient Wolf analyzed gravely.
“I’d like to see them try!”
Chu Tianba roared, then said pensively, “But you’re right.
To keep Master Jiang out of trouble, Long and I will go straight to the Four Seas Gang.
You stay here and clean up this scene!”
“Chengwu, you stay here too.
If anyone from the authorities comes asking, just say the Long family did this!”
Long Changsheng also gave his order, then sped off with Chu Tianba toward the Four Seas Gang’s location.
「On the outskirts of Yicheng.」
There were dozens of small fishing villages here.
All of them nestled against the East Sea.
In the largest village, right in the center.
Was the base of the Four Seas Gang!
Here, the Four Seas Gang were like local tyrants, enjoying the highest status.
Those who obeyed them prospered!
Those who defied them perished!
Here, the Four Seas Gang called the shots!
At the center of the largest village stood a three-story villa.
It was brightly lit and filled with thugs.
And on the top floor was an old man in a black robe, wearing an eagle-eye mask, his entire body emanating a savage aura.
Beside him were Jiang Sihai and Mei Changyan.
As for Xu Mingsheng.
He would never show his face unless he was absolutely certain of victory.
“Elder Ghost!
I must ask for your help tonight to destroy that brat named Jiang Ning!”
Jiang Sihai’s fists were clenched, but his face wore a fawning expression.
After hearing this, Elder Ghost did not respond immediately.
Instead, he was playing with the walnuts in his hand, as if lost in thought.
“Elder Ghost, Ruyu called you Grandpa her whole life!
You must avenge your granddaughter with your own hands!”
Mei Changyan wailed.
“Enough!
I will avenge Ruyu myself!
I’ve already sent someone to grab that little bastard’s mother.
They should be arriving any minute now!”
Elder Ghost snapped impatiently, and Jiang Sihai’s and Mei Changyan’s faces immediately lit up with excitement.
“Elder Ghost!
As long as you kill that little bastard, I’ll find you eighteen sixteen-year-old girls for your pleasure!”
Jiang Sihai said with immense glee.
Upon hearing this, a look of intoxicated pleasure spread across Elder Ghost’s face…
The technique he cultivated was the Blood Refining Art.
Draining the yin to supplement the yang!
Only by preying on more young women could he advance his power to the next level.
“Since you’re so sensible, I’ll let you deliver the final blow!”
Elder Ghost patted Jiang Sihai’s shoulder and closed his eyes to rest.
But in the next second, a figure came crashing in.
Judging by the uniform, it was a member of the Four Seas Gang!
The target was none other than Elder Ghost, who was sitting in the main seat!
“What scoundrel dares ambush Elder Ghost!”
Elder Ghost’s eyes flew open.
With a tyrannical aura surging from his body, he threw a punch.
BOOM!
The moment the figure landed in front of Elder Ghost, the punch pierced straight through its chest.
With a casual flick, Elder Ghost stood up.
His gaze swept around, finally settling on a young man a hundred meters away.
The young man, dressed in white, was strolling toward them as if taking a walk in a park.
“Elder Ghost!
That’s him!
That’s Jiang Ning!”
“He’s the one who killed my Ruyu!”
The couple, Jiang Sihai and his wife, roared madly as they pointed at Jiang Ning.
“Boy!
You alone?
You dare kill someone under my protection!”
Elder Ghost sneered, looking at Jiang Ning with utter contempt.
“So you’re the boss of this Four Seas Gang?
Just this sort of trash, I see.”
Jiang Ning said faintly as he approached.
His voice was like a sudden clap of thunder.
Though quiet, it was filled with shocking power.
“Kid, you’ve got some nerve coming here to cause trouble for my Four Seas Gang.
But this is where it ends.”
Elder Ghost said coldly, then waved his hand.
Countless figures rushed forward.
Every one of them was holding a weapon.
From melee weapons to firearms, all were aimed at Jiang Ning.
Just waiting for the command!
“The Four Seas Gang…
so you were the one secretly backing them!”
Jiang Ning turned to look at Jiang Sihai, a mocking sneer on his lips.
Publicly, this Jiang Sihai was a philanthropic entrepreneur.
But secretly, he was nothing more than a common crook.
‘How shameful!’
“That’s right!
I, Jiang Sihai, am the true leader of the Four Seas Gang!
Jiang Ning, Elder Ghost was going to bring your mother here, but since you’ve come yourself, it’s all the same!”
Jiang Sihai bellowed arrogantly, continuing to sneer at Jiang Ning.
“After Elder Ghost tears you limb from limb, I’ll personally skin that blind old mother of yours and break her bones, piece by piece!”
A corner of Jiang Ning’s mouth lifted, but he said nothing.
He had no desire to waste words on a dead man.
“Sihai, that’s not enough to quench my hatred!
After this boy is dead, we’ll drain his blood, harvest his organs, turn him into a specimen, freeze him forever, and slice him with a knife every single day!”
Mei Changyan said, her face twisted with savagery as she stared at Jiang Ning.
“A fine suggestion, but it’s too much trouble.
In a moment, I’ll just send you all to your graves!”
Jiang Ning said lightly, not a trace of fear on his face.
“Boy, you are indeed outstanding.
It’s not easy to become a Profound Level Martial Artist at such a young age.” Elder Ghost sneered and took a step forward.
“But of all the mistakes you could have made, you should not have offended me, Elder Ghost!
Offend me, and even if you were an Earth Level expert, I’d still beat you to death!”
“You’re asking to die.”
A corner of Jiang Ning’s mouth lifted, his face filled with endless killing intent.
“You’re the one courting death!”
Seeing Jiang Ning’s arrogance, Elder Ghost flew into a rage and let out a cold laugh.
In the next second, Elder Ghost stomped his foot hard and lunged madly toward Jiang Ning like a bat.
He spread his hands, his five fingers forming claws, and swiped viciously forward.
A fierce astral wind whipped from his claws.
“There it is!
It’s Elder Ghost’s Eagle Claw Technique!
This kid is dead for sure!”
Seeing Elder Ghost make his move, Jiang Sihai’s face lit up with excitement.
“This is the martial arts of the secular world?”
Jiang Ning frowned, suddenly finding it all uninteresting, and simply slapped out with his palm.
BAM—
Just as Elder Ghost’s claws were about to reach Jiang Ning, his arrogant body was suddenly slammed hard onto the ground.
PTHOO—
Elder Ghost spat out a mouthful of blood.
His face was a mask of fury and disbelief.
“Boy!
Who the hell are you?
How could you possibly injure me!”
