"Burn it..." The big man was startled.
"Hurry." Yang Gang said decisively.
"Father..." Yang Jun asked anxiously.
"Follow me." Yang Gang finished, leading Yang Jun, Wang Yi, and others to a dilapidated house. They crouched under the table, and with a gentle press on a stone slab, a cracking sound echoed, revealing a dark hole in front of Wang Yi and the others.
"Go down." Yang Gang instructed.
In the next moment, the three found themselves in a small secret chamber that was less than ten feet wide. The surroundings were airtight and the air was thin; fortunately, all three were martial artists; otherwise, they would have died in no time.
Without hesitation, Yang Gang sealed the entrance.
"Father, the Brothers haven't come in yet." Yang Jun said urgently.
"I know, but this only fits three people." Yang Gang sighed, his gaze intense with a hint of madness as he stared at Wang Yi and said, "Wang Yi, what you just obtained is real?"
"Wang Yi? Brother Wang, didn't you say your name was Wang Meng?" Yang Jun paused for a moment, looking at Wang Yi in confusion and surprise.
"That's right." Wang Yi replied calmly.
"I hope you can do it; otherwise, even if I, Yang Gang, die, I will make sure that you, the former top talent of Kaiyang Sect, accompany my son and me to the grave." Yang Gang stared at Wang Yi, speaking each word clearly.
"Wang Yi! You are the first disciple of Kaiyang Sect's Inner Sect?" Yang Jun suddenly realized, looking at Wang Yi with disbelief.
"When did you find out my true identity?" Wang Yi's expression darkened as he fixed his gaze on Yang Gang and asked word by word.
"You'll understand once you see this." Yang Gang smiled slightly, waved his large hand, and a portrait appeared in his palm. He handed it to Wang Yi and said, "This was obtained yesterday, co-written by the Zhou family and the Zhao family, sent from various states across the country. I have been added as one of the two major forces in Yuncheng by the Golden Blade Merchant Association, so naturally, I received this document from the Zhou family."
"A million Yuan Stones, ten million gold. Aren't you tempted?" Wang Yi looked at Yang Gang with a smile that was not quite a smile.
"I only know that if I inform the Zhou family of your whereabouts, then the Golden Blade Merchant Association will disappear from Yuncheng," Yang Gang said with a bitter smile. "The power of the Zhou family is something we cannot provoke."
"Moreover, someone who can survive under the encirclement of the Three Great Families will not have a poor future, right? I will just consider it as forming a good relationship," Yang Gang said directly to Wang Yi.
"Brother Wang, as the top talent of Kaiyang Sect's Inner Sect, why were you expelled from Kaiyang Sect?" Yang Jun asked in confusion.
"Let it be," Wang Yi replied with a calm smile.
Seeing that Wang Yi did not want to discuss the matter further, Yang Jun stopped asking questions.
At that moment, a thick, acrid smoke began to rise from above, and the air was intermittently filled with a sound resembling frying beans.
"The fire has started; Gun Invincible won't discover this place for a while," Yang Gang said.
The pungent smell of smoke quickly spread throughout the secret chamber, causing Yang Jun to cough incessantly and tears to stream down his face.
"Holding your breath," Yang Gang commanded sternly.
Immediately, the three of them fell silent, regulating their breathing and entering a state of stillness as everything returned to calm.
Time slowly passed.
Before this, Wang Yi's strength had already recovered; it was just limited by the constraints of his blood energy technique. Otherwise, he would not allow Gun Invincible and his son to act so arrogantly.
Time slowly passed, and the sound of waves outside the Stone Chamber echoed endlessly, with flickers of firelight casting shadows inside.
It was unclear how long had gone by, only that shouts were heard from outside the Stone Chamber.
"Have you found them?"
"No."
"Hmph, our people have surrounded this place tightly; not even an ant can escape, let alone a few living people. Besides, with such a large fire, they definitely can't get out."
"Father, there must be a hidden room or something; they must be hiding inside. Otherwise, they wouldn't have disappeared."
"Hmph, listen up! Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we must find them."
"Understood."
On the ground, what was once the magnificent Golden Blade Merchant Association had turned into ruins, with thick white smoke filling the air, stinging the eyes and nose.
As the sun set, only a faint glow remained.
Gun Invincible looked at the ruins before him with a grim expression, his eyes revealing a predatory gaze that made the disciples of the God Gun Sect tremble in fear. Even Gun Wushuang dared not utter a word and stood quietly to the side.
"Hmph, Yang Gang, I know you are still here. I will find you," Gun Invincible said coldly in an icy voice.
"No need to search; I'm right here."
At that moment, a loud voice came from somewhere nearby, and soon Yang Gang and his son calmly walked out from amidst the ruins.
"Hey, Yang Gang, you finally showed up. But it's not too late; today is still the day of doom for you and your son." Gun Invincible coldly looked at Yang Gang and his son.
"Is that so? That may not be the case." A cold smile crept onto Yang Gang's lips as he said, "Perhaps today is actually the day of doom for you and your son."
"Hahaha, Yang Gang, I didn't expect that even at the brink of death, you would still be so arrogant. Well, today I will see whose doom it really is." Gun Invincible's gaze turned sinister, his voice as cold as the winter wind in December, chilling to the bone.
"Father, let me handle this old man Yang Gang. As for Yang Jun, I'll take care of him." Gun Wushuang fixed his eyes on Yang Jun, speaking coldly.
"Good, well said. My son is indeed capable. Today, we will send you two to the afterlife together so you won't feel lonely on the way." Gun Invincible sneered.
"Unfortunately, the one who will kill you today is not me," Yang Gang replied with a smile.
"Oh? Then who is it?" Gun Invincible asked coldly without thinking further.
"It’s me."
The voice was light and airy, yet it resonated clearly in the ears of everyone present.
"Who... who is it? Show yourself immediately!" Gun Invincible's expression changed slightly as he spoke harshly, scanning the surroundings with a dark gaze but seeing no one. A drop of cold sweat slid down from his forehead, causing him to shiver involuntarily.
"Who... who is it? Get out here right now!" Gun Wushuang shouted coldly.
Before his words could fade, a cold and merciless voice arose endlessly, as if it came from the depths of an abyss: "I'll give you one chance—get out now, or you'll remain here forever."
Gun Invincible and his son were momentarily stunned, then they saw a figure emerge from the smoldering ruins, enveloped in green smoke. It was none other than Wang Yi.
"It’s you..."
"Is it you?"
Gun Invincible and his son almost simultaneously called out.
"Hahaha, I thought it was someone else? Turns out it's you, Waste?" Gun Wushuang looked at Wang Yi, paused for a moment, then pointed at Wang Yi and laughed heartily, saying, "Hmph, who do you think you are? A Transcendent Realm Expert? Hmph, you overestimate yourself. I now command you to kneel before me immediately, or I will have you torn apart and your body displayed in pieces."
In contrast to Gun Wushuang's mocking demeanor, his father Gun Invincible was filled with shock, actually stepping back two paces. He then slapped Gun Wushuang across the face and looked at Wang Yi in panic, saying, "Young Master Wang, my son is being rude; please forgive him."
"Father, he's just a Waste. Why should I be hit? And why should we apologize to him?" Gun Wushuang exclaimed in confusion, his gaze toward Wang Yi filled with anger and disbelief. He never expected his father would strike him for a mere Waste.
"Shut up! When you see Young Master Wang, shouldn't you apologize?" Gun Invincible glared at the clueless Gun Wushuang, then turned to Wang Yi with a smile, saying, "I didn't know Young Master Wang was here. We will take our leave now."
"What? The Gun Sect Leader is in such a hurry to leave?" Wang Yi said with a faint cold smile.
"Hmph, who are you to dare mock my father like this?" Gun Wushuang retorted coldly. He then said to Gun Invincible, "Father, don't be intimidated by him. He's just bluffing. This person isn't even a martial artist; otherwise, he wouldn't have been defeated by me last time." His face was full of pride.
"This..." Gun Invincible hesitated for a moment, looking up and down at Wang Yi, and asked, "Are you really Wang Yi?"
"Is there another person named Wang Yi here?" Wang Yi replied with a cold laugh.
"Since there's Young Master Wang protecting the Golden Blade Merchant Association, then we of the God Gun Sect will take our leave." Remembering the events regarding Wang Yi in the Xiangzhou Prefecture, Gun Invincible felt a chill run down his spine. Seeing how calm Wang Yi was made him believe it somewhat and he dared not act recklessly.
"I won't let you leave," Wang Yi said calmly.
"Seeking death." Unable to endure any longer, Gun Wushuang roared and swung his blade down towards Wang Yi.
Clang!
In the next moment, Wang Yi extended two fingers and gently pinched the sharp blade in front of him.
"Impossible?" At that moment, Gun Wushuang no longer had his previous arrogance; instead, his face was filled with shock and disbelief.
Wang Yi smiled lightly at the astonished Gun Wushuang. With a flick of his fingers, a ringing sound echoed as he directly shattered the blade into fragments that fell to the ground.
"You... you..." Gun Wushuang looked at Wang Yi in panic, continuously retreating.
Wang Yi smiled slightly and waved his hand. With a thud, Gun Wushuang was sent flying backward, spitting out blood.
"Wushuang..." Gun Invincible was taken aback, hurriedly helping Gun Wushuang up. A glint of killing intent flashed in his eyes but was quickly suppressed as he looked at Wang Yi and said, "Young Master Wang, what do you mean by this?"
"Nothing much, just want you to stay here," Wang Yi replied calmly.
"Don't even think about it." Gun Invincible roared angrily. With a flick of his hand, a spear appeared in his grasp. He thrust it forward fiercely, and with a whoosh, a beam of spear light shot straight at Wang Yi's chest.
Clang! In the astonished gaze of Gun Invincible, Wang Yi spread his hand and directly caught the spear tip. With a crunch, the next moment revealed that a spear tip had already pierced through Gun Invincible's chest, staining his clothes with blood.
"Gugugu..." Gun Invincible's eyes were filled with disbelief as blood gushed from his throat. Soon after, filled with unwillingness, he collapsed to the ground, breathless.
