Chapter 89: Walking Around

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After shaking off the blood on his fist, Lin Yan turned around and said, “All of you, get up. We’re Ji Quan’s friends.”

The villagers knelt in front of him and kowtowed non-stop.

A few of them were dyed red, and their eyes were bloodshot. Just now, when Lin Yan lulled the members of the Nine Ghosts Gang who were holding torches, these people seemed to have gone crazy. They rushed forward and kicked, bit, and wanted to eat the members of the Gang who had been knocked down by Lin Yan.

After comforting the villagers, Lin Yan called the village chief and asked Xie Lingyan to coordinate with the village chief to help the people at the foot of the mountain carry the supplies up.

He was afraid that if he didn’t send Xie Lingyan away, she would accidentally kill the few survivors he had painstakingly left alive.

By the time everyone and supplies at the foot of the mountain were brought up the mountain, Lin Yan was already done.

After getting a bucket of water and carefully cleaning the blood on his hands, he turned to the dozen or so villagers who had been waiting for a long time and nodded. “They’re yours.”

…..

There were hoes, sickles, and even people who directly carried rocks. More than ten villagers rushed into the room behind them, and terrifying screams immediately rose and fell.

Lin Yan cleaned the gaps between his fingers and went to meet Xiaozhi and the others.

“I’ve already asked. The people controlling this village are a group of forces called the Nine Ghosts Gang. There are three leaders, and the person guarding here is the Third Elder of the Nine Ghosts Gang.

“The Nine Ghosts Gang not only controls the Ji Village, but they also use the Black Water Village a few miles to the south and Stone Village to the west as their base.

“However, this Nine Ghosts Gang isn’t very strong. 1 heard that the most powerful leader is only at the upper echelons of the Strength Realm.”

This kind of strength was probably just a small gang in Ding’an City. It was far inferior to the Black Tiger Gang.

“They heard about the phenomenon in the Guangchuan Mountains and came here to try their luck.

“However, because they were too weak, they did not dare to explore deeper. Therefore, they used the nearby villages as a stronghold and tyrannized the villagers here. In fact, they were trying their luck.”

Pei Qing and Fan Yunyun were even more furious. “The Nine Ghosts Gang is actually so weak?”

Ji Quan was actually not weak, but he was too young and had been in Qinghong Martial Arts School for a long time. He had never experienced the dangers of the world. That was why he was tripped and tied up by a rope when he was splashed with lime by the third master of the Nine Ghosts Gang and fell here.

Zang Wei sighed. “A small Nine Slaughter Gang can cause trouble for three villages. I wonder how many people in the entire Guangchuan Mountains are suffering…”

“Eldest Senior Brother is wise. In fact, dozens of small villages within a radius of twenty to thirty miles are occupied by such gangs.”

“What?!”

“Ghost Head Gang, Flying Sand Gang, Black Dog Gang… They’re all small gangs. They purely used the opportunity to try their luck here and plunder and invade the villages.

“Do you remember that on the way here, we encountered three waves of robbers?

“They’re from the small gangs in the area.”

Pei Qing was furious. “There’s no tiger in the mountains. A monkey pretending to be a king!”

Zang Wei said in a low voice, “We still have to be careful. Although these gangs are weak, they are proficient in sinister and deceitful methods. If we’re not careful, we’ll fall into their trap.”

Lin Yan agreed. “Eldest Senior Brother is right. We can’t guard against thieves for a thousand days… Miss Xie, I want to ask you for a favor.”

“What?”

Lin Yan rubbed her head apologetically. “Xiaozhi is still young. I want her and Xiao Lu to sleep with you tonight.”

“Sleep with me?” Xie Lingyan was slightly stunned. “What are you going to do?”

“Nothing much. 1 just plan to… go out for a walk.”

Everyone was slightly stunned before they looked at Lin Yan in shock.

Go out for a walk. Where to?

The surrounding villages?!

Along the way, Lin Yan had been silent.

Therefore, it was very difficult for everyone to associate this ordinary young man in front of them with the fierce and mysterious masked man who killed in all directions.

It was only at this moment that everyone finally realized what kind of blood storm was hidden under this calm and ordinary face.

After handing Xiaozhi to Xiao Lu and greeting Xie Lingyan, Lin Yan found the village chief and wanted to find someone to lead the way for him.

“You?”

The village chief brought a boy around ten years old. His name was Hu Wa. He was dark and not tall, but he was very lean and strong.

“Benefactor, don’t think that I’m young. I’ve been to all the nearby villages!”

“But you’re too young.”

Hu Wa’s eyes were red. “Please take me there!”

“Do you know that this trip is very dangerous?”

“I know.”

“Why must you go?”

“My mother and father are dead! They died in front of me!”

Hu Wa’s eyes were red as he kept kowtowing, making thumping sounds.

“Benefactor, 1 don’t want anything else. As long as 1 see those bad people die with my own eyes, I’ll do anything!”

Lin Yan was silent for a moment before reaching out to pull him up. “You don’t have to do anything. Come with me.”

It was better for children to lead the way than adults. They could be carried directly on his shoulders and move faster.

In this way, one night should be enough for him to walk around.

The night passed uneventfully.

The next day, Xie Lingyan woke up and brought Xiaozhi out. She saw Lin Yan practicing boxing in the square in the village.

“Brother!”

Xiaozhi ran quickly to Lin Yan’s side and stopped abruptly.

“Wash your face first.”

Lin Yan took a towel from the bucket at the side and wrung it dry.

Xiaozhi obediently stretched out her hands behind her, closed her eyes, raised her head, and made preparations.

Seeing Lin Yan carefully wipe Xiaozhi’s face bit by bit, and thinking of what he might have done last night, Xie Lingyan felt a strange sense of division.

“Shi Mu… Lin Yan, how was last night?”

Lin Yan wiped Xiaozhi’s right cheek clean and said casually, “All settled.”

Xie Lingyan heaved a sigh of relief. “The Nine Ghosts Gang has done many evil things and deserve to die. Sigh, there are too many such gangs. If we destroy the Nine Ghosts Gang, Seven Ghosts Gang and Six Ghosts Gang will come. We can’t kill them all.”

“Not that many.”

“What do you mean?”

Lin Yan wiped Xiaozhi’s face clean and patted her little head. He pointed at the house beside him. “Sister Xiao Lu has already made breakfast. Xiaozhi, go eat breakfast first.”

“Okay!”

After Xiaozhi jogged out, Lin Yan looked at Xie Lingyan. “Actually, it’s not impossible to kill all of them. It’s just a little more effort.”

Xie Lingyan was slightly stunned. These words actually revealed a murderous aura that was like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

“How many villages did you go to yesterday?”

“Not many. I don’t remember the number.”

“How many? Four? Five? Don’t tell me six!”

“I really can’t remember… I probably didn’t miss anything within a five-kilometer radius.”

This was because he was worried that if he killed too many, the impact would be too great and it would easily expose their location, so he did not go too far.

ii ii

Xie Lingyan’s beautiful eyes widened. What kind of freak was this guy?!

Even with his Tough Realm strength, he needed time to recover his blood energy. One night was enough for him to run to four to five villages.

However, there were at least ten villages within a five-kilometer radius, right?

There were so many of them. If she were to go, she wouldn’t be able to finish running in a circle, let alone killing people!

Was his blood energy inexhaustible?!

…..

At this moment, the sound of gongs and drums suddenly came from the door.

Immediately after, many villagers emerged from the surrounding dense forest. They were all holding various pheasants, berries, fungi, and other mountain goods in their hands. They carefully entered the Ji Village with reverence.

“Hey, aren’t you from Blackwater Village?!”

“Old Liu, why are you here? The Liu Village is more than ten miles away!”

“Old Bai, you’re already crippled, but you still came so far?!”

These were all people from the nearby villages. They were familiar with the villagers of the Ji Village and chatted with them.

“Shh, don’t disturb the Lord of the Justice Gang.”

At this moment, the village chief came out, and all the villagers from the other villages surrounded him.

“Old Village Chief, we’ll leave these things here.”

“Please send my regards to the Lord of the Justice Gang.”

“That’s right. The Lord of the Justice Gang has done us a great favor. This is all a small token of our gratitude. Please pass it to them!”

After putting down the items, all the villagers had looks of reverence and fear on their faces. They only stayed for a while before quickly retreating.

Xie Lingyan stood at a high place and watched as the people arrived and quickly retreated. She asked Lin Yan in shock, “The Justice Gang?”

Lin Yan nodded. “I made it up. I want to make a reputation to prevent ignorant people from provoking me.”

“In that case, those villagers thought that a new gang had come and beaten up the original old gang?”

“It’s not just them. The other mountain strongholds and gangs nearby will think the same. After a while, 1’11 make another trip and our days will really be peaceful.”

Xie Lingyan:”…”

Didn’t they say that Lin Yan was previously an accountant in the lower district?

Where did he learn such thunderous methods and boldness?
