Chapter 1921 - 1894: Arriving Just in Time
"Hahaha, since we’re fearless, let’s go on a killing spree today and show them the power of our Netherworld Mercenary Corps."
Starving Ghost laughed heartily, without any hesitation, rushed out directly. The dagger in his hand carried a lethal aura, slashing across one person’s throat, and blood splattered out instantly, the thick scent of blood spreading in a flash.
The moment Starving Ghost struck, Tie Niu and the others also charged forward.
Compared to the people brought by Old Jack, Tie Niu and the others were clearly stronger, and their attacks were ruthless and gave the opponent no chance to breathe, always aiming to kill in one blow. In a short time, several corpses lay on the ground.
"Audacity, you’re courting death."
Among the crowd, one leading man saw this scene and immediately became enraged, because most of the people killed by Starving Ghost and others were his.
With a roar, the man took a fierce step forward, his superpower rolling fiercely, carrying a terrifying pressure as it rolled towards Starving Ghost: "Die for me."
In an instant, this superpower transformed into a mountain, its middle-stage mythical power fully displayed, encompassing the air, suffocating. The powerful force directly enveloped Starving Ghost, intending to crush him in an instant.
"Courting death."
At this moment, a long howl came from afar, the voice carrying True Qi like rolling thunder, making it feel like it exploded by the ear. Then a figure dashed over like lightning from a distance.
It was Lu Tianxing.
As he charged over, before even arriving, True Qi surged ahead, a gigantic True Qi handprint roared towards the superpowered mountain.
The originally menacing superpowered mountain was shattered like an egg hitting a rock under the True Qi Handprint.
"Trying to hurt my brothers, did you ask for my permission?"
Lu Tianxing rushed to the front, unleashing the Unbeatable Emperor Fist, blowing apart the superpower users surrounding Starving Ghost and others. Blood rain fell from the sky, terrifying to behold.
"Boss...!"
Seeing the figure appear beside them, Starving Ghost and the others couldn’t help but shout, their faces showing a trace of uncontrollable excitement. Why Lu Tianxing appeared here, they understood very well. Lu Tianxing came for them, risking his life to ensure their survival.
Because before the operation, Lu Tianxing had said that everyone fights on their own, no one was allowed to interfere in others’ battles. Now that Lu Tianxing was here, there was only one reason: he came to save them; otherwise, Lu Tianxing had no reason to return.
"Are you all alright?" Lu Tianxing asked in a deep voice, looking at Starving Ghost and the others.
"Boss, just a scratch, nothing worth mentioning," Starving Ghost grinned.
"Good, as long as you’re okay. I’ll carve a path, and you leave first." Lu Tianxing said.
Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Tie Niu urgently said, "But Boss, if we leave, what about you?"
"Don’t worry about me, they can’t do anything to me. Remember, once the fight starts, leave here, got it?"
Lu Tianxing glanced at Starving Ghost, didn’t say anything further, but instead set his gaze on the surrounding forces, a bloodthirsty smile appearing on his lips. Looks like there would be a massacre tonight.
"Judge, you finally appear. I thought you’d hide like a coward, not daring to show yourself."
Just as Lu Tianxing’s gaze swept over, the crowd suddenly parted, and a man looking around fifty slowly walked out. His hair was somewhat white, his face pale, giving off the feeling of being on the verge of death. A clearly visible scar on his eye and cheek made him look particularly fierce and evil.
"Hmph, so it’s you, Kun Tai. I didn’t expect you among those ambushing me this time."
Lu Tianxing glanced at this middle-aged man blandly: "Back in the Golden Triangle, I should have killed you."
Kun Tai—this name may seem ordinary to common people, nothing special, but to those who dwell long in the Underworld, the name Kun Tai is notorious.
Kun Tai, the most infamous criminal in the world, with great power in the Golden Triangle, influential as an emperor. Years ago, the Netherworld Mercenary Corps had once visited the Golden Triangle and had a small-scale conflict with Kun Tai’s forces. However, due to certain matters, the Corps chose not to openly confront Kun Tai but swiftly withdrew after completing their mission.
Moreover, according to Underworld rumors, although Kun Tai is still the boss in the Golden Triangle, he doesn’t have long to live, having contracted an incurable disease.
If Lu Tianxing guessed right, Kun Tai appearing in the Eagle Country was likely for the Four Symbols Ring, hoping to use its legend to extend his life. As for the authenticity of the legend, for someone with little time left, it hardly mattered.
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, a strange smile crossed Kun Tai’s pale face: "Judge, don’t you think it’s a bit late to say that? You’re destined to die today. If you wisely hand over the Four Symbols Ring, perhaps I might mercifully leave you with an intact corpse. Otherwise, today you will die a gruesome death."
"You want me to hand over the Four Symbols Ring?"
Lu Tianxing’s lips curled into an elegant arc, his gaze towards Kun Tai full of disdain: "Kun Tai, what are you, to make me hand over the Four Symbols Ring? Are you qualified? Do you believe I can kill you as easily as crushing an ant?"
I can kill you easier than squashing an ant!
Disdain, blatant disdain!
Listening to Lu Tianxing’s disdainful words, Kun Tai’s face turned extremely dark, his eyes revealing intense murderous intent, yet he dared not act rashly.
Though Lu Tianxing was alone, there were dozens of experts on their side, but as they say, a starved camel is still larger than a horse. If Kun Tai dared to confront Lu Tianxing directly now, he’d surely die; Kun Tai was well aware of this.
For those allied with him are all after the Four Symbols Ring in Lu Tianxing’s possession. If Kun Tai dared to openly clash with Lu Tianxing, those around wouldn’t mind standing aside, watching him get killed by Lu Tianxing, then reaping the benefits thereafter.
