"It's just a few characters, no need to make a big fuss. The most urgent matter right now is the situation with the Eastern Sun Gang," Qin Ying waved his hand, then his expression became serious.
"Helmsman is absolutely right. According to recent observations, there are already over a hundred members of the Eastern Sun Gang in the city, and the lowest among them have reached the Human Soul Realm," another Vice Leader said with a worried look.
"Although my Cloud Division's strength is not as good as that of the Eastern Sun Gang, I believe they wouldn't dare to act against us easily. Huang Duzhu, isn't that right?" Qin Ying turned his gaze to Huang Duzhu.
"That's right. Helmsman doesn't need to worry at all. Even if you lent them some courage, the Eastern Sun Gang would definitely not dare to make a move," Huang Duzhu nodded.
"However, what I'm worried about now is how we should respond if the Eastern Sun Gang really does take action. What do you two Helmsmen think we should do if they actually attack?" Qin Ying lightly tapped his fingers on the table, speaking casually. What he needed to do now was to buy time, ensuring that during this moment, the traitor wouldn't send a signal for the Eastern Sun Gang to act. Therefore, he had to drag things out as much as possible.
"Helmsman, I think we should first send someone to control the city gates so that reinforcements from the Eastern Sun Gang cannot enter the city. Then, we can use our numerical advantage to slowly wear down the members of the Eastern Sun Gang inside," before Huang Duzhu could speak, another Helmsman interjected.
"Helmsman, this method is not feasible. If we do that, my Cloud Division's disciples will definitely suffer heavy casualties. Even if we manage to eliminate all members of the Eastern Sun Gang in the end, my Cloud Division will still be severely weakened," Huang Duzhu said, his eyes darting around. After pondering for a while, he continued, "I believe the most important thing now is to seek assistance from Setting Sun Hall nearby and have Lin Luori, the Master of Sunset Hall, send reinforcements as soon as possible."
Qin Ying listened silently to both of their suggestions. Initially, he wasn't sure who among these two Helmsmen was the traitor, but now he was certain. Although Huang Duzhu's words seemed to be for the benefit of their branch, in reality, it was otherwise; if they followed his plan, they might not even wait for help from their hall before being wiped out.
On the other hand, while the Vice Leader's method would greatly weaken their branch and sacrifice most of their disciples, it was currently the most effective approach and aligned with Qin Ying's thoughts.
"Both Helmsmen have valid points; however, Huang Duzhu's method seems more prudent," Qin Ying lightly tapped on the table. For now, he could only proceed this way. After all, if his opinion diverged from that of the traitor, it was likely that action would be taken immediately against him. Thus, Qin Ying had to stabilize him first.
"Zhang Master, you handle this matter. Go personally to Setting Sun Hall for assistance," Qin Ying said before shifting his gaze to another Vice Leader. Based on Xing Chen's words, it was very likely that this table of food had been poisoned. If Zhang Master unknowingly ate it later on, it would be troublesome; therefore, the best course of action was to send him away.
"Yes, Helmsman. I will go right away," Zhang Master nodded and then left the room.
"Hmph, seeking assistance is simply impossible. The city's Teleportation Array has long been controlled by members of the Eastern Sun Gang. Even if the Teleportation Array were intact, it wouldn't be able to transport large groups of people at once. You can just wait for death quietly, Qin Ying!" Watching Zhang Master leave, Huang Duzhu couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
“Helmsman, you should eat something first. You've worked hard, and it's time to relax a bit,” Huang Duzhu said with a smile as he looked at Qin Ying.
“Hmm.” Qin Ying glanced at him and nodded.
...
“Prepare yourselves; the other side may take action soon.” In the private room of Xing Chen and the others, Xing Chen suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the others.
“Rest assured, Young Master Chen, we can strike at any moment,” Xu Song and the others replied in unison. After a period of rest, everyone was in peak physical and mental condition.
A chilling light flickered in Xing Chen's eyes. This time, they had to eliminate the Eastern Sun Gang members; otherwise, not only would their branch be finished, but they themselves would also be unable to escape.
About an incense stick's worth of time later, Xing Chen's expression shifted as he suddenly stood up. The others also rose, their expressions serious. After all, the opposing side had a Soul Realm Expert stationed there; their situation was definitely perilous.
“Let's go. I’ll go in first to deal with that traitor. You all head to the private room on the left; the strongest there is only at the Earth Soul Realm. With your strength, you can definitely give them a heavy blow,” Xing Chen instructed, pointing to the private room on the left of Qin Ying's.
“Don’t worry, Young Master Chen. As long as there’s no Soul Realm Expert stationed there, we will make them suffer significant losses,” Xu Song and the others nodded in agreement.
“Keep your wits about you; remember to retreat if things get out of hand,” Xing Chen said before kicking open the door to Qin Ying's private room. Without any hesitation, he thrust his Lonely Star Sword forward, executing the second form of Lonely Star Sun Blade: Disaster Star Descends.
At that moment, Huang Duzhu was preparing to take action when unexpectedly, Xing Chen charged in. He didn’t even have time to react before a streak of Black Light suddenly sliced through the air toward him.
Whoosh!
The Black Light flashed by in an instant. Huang Duzhu was still in the posture of standing up and turning his head when the Black Light pierced through his forehead. He hadn’t even had time to react before he fell dead under Xing Chen's sword.
"Senior Brother, to the left, hurry up," Xing Chen quickly said after dispatching Huang Duzhu with a single sword strike.
Qin Ying understood immediately and punched the left wall. With a loud bang, the wall collapsed, revealing more than ten people from the Soul Refinement Realm exposed to Qin Ying's sight. Without any pause after breaking the wall, Qin Ying unleashed his strongest Martial Arts, Shifang Wujiquan.
In an instant, Qin Ying's figure flickered, and multiple images of him appeared from all directions, attacking those ambushed inside by the Eastern Sun Gang. At the same time, Xing Chen launched his attack as well; he discarded his Lonely Star Sword and used the infamous Seven Killing Blood Seal known for its murderous aura.
"Seven Killing Blood Seal—" A dense red light slowly emerged from his palm. Within the red glow, a Blood Seal radiated endless killing intent, shooting forward with a bloody tail.
Xu Song and others also unleashed their ultimate moves almost simultaneously. Countless powerful Martial Arts erupted within the room, catching the Eastern Sun Gang members off guard, leaving them no time to react.
Boom!
Accompanied by a loud noise, the entire inn shook violently at that moment, as if it could collapse at any time. Those who had been ambushed in the room were instantly severely injured by this sudden attack, with some even dying in this wave of assault.
"Retreat..." Seeing their strike succeed, Xing Chen shouted loudly and immediately activated Northern Dipper Star Steps, rushing out of the inn. The others also dashed toward the exit at that moment.
"Damn it! How dare you play dirty with me! I will make you regret this," a group of people who had been hiding in the right-side private room finally reacted when Xing Chen and others attacked. However, it was already too late; from the moment they struck to when they escaped the inn was merely an instant. They didn't even have time to help or intercept Xing Chen and his group.
"Senior Brother, quickly call for people to surround the inn; not a single one inside can escape," Xing Chen said upon reaching outside.
"Get everyone to surround this inn; not even a fly should be allowed to escape," Qin Ying nodded and instructed those from Cloud Division who had been waiting outside.
"Yes, Helmsman!" Everyone responded as thousands surrounded Cloud Inn in layers.
"What a clever tactic! No wonder you are the Closed-Door Disciple of Azure Cloud Gang's leader; under these circumstances, you've managed to make us lose so many elite disciples." At that moment, a dark-faced man walked out of the inn; he was a strong individual who had reached the Soul Realm.
"I thought who it could be, and it turns out to be the Hall Master of the Eastern Sun Gang, Xu Xing, gracing us with his presence!" Qin Ying sneered coldly upon recognizing the person before him.
"Hmph, there's no need for those insincere words. Although you have made ample preparations and unexpectedly dealt a heavy blow to my more than twenty disciples, rendering them unable to fight back, even so, your Cloud Division will still be occupied by me," Xu Xing said with a dark expression, snorting coldly.
"Then we'll see if you have that capability. My Cloud Division has thousands of disciples; even if we wear you down, we can still defeat you," Qin Ying replied, a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes, refusing to back down.
"If it weren't for you ruining my plans this time, I would have already taken down the Cloud Division. You’ve spoiled my good deed, and soon you'll know what it means to suffer a fate worse than death," Xu Xing said as he turned to Xing Chen with a sinister look.
"Enough of the useless chatter. If you have the ability, then make your move," Xing Chen scoffed, looking at Xu Xing with disdain.
"Very well, I will make you understand the price of provoking me," Xu Xing said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, filled with murderous intent. He then shouted loudly, "Attack! Let these Azure Cloud Gang members know the might of my Eastern Sun Gang."
"Yes, Hall Master!"
"Go! Even if we have to use sheer numbers, we must crush them!" Qin Ying's face also revealed a ruthless expression as he issued orders without hesitation.
"Kill..."
