Chapter 469 The Big Picture

Chapter 469 The Big Picture
Eagle Strike Technique!
Eagles are incredibly fast; one moment they're on the horizon, the next they're right in front of you.

Sometimes the prey is caught in the eagle's talons before it even realizes what's happening.

The reason it is so fast is due to the eagle's special body structure, which allows it to increase its inertia by diving without being hindered by resistance, especially its explosive power over short distances, which is astonishing.

Eagle Strike Technique is a unique move in Eagle Claw Kung Fu, which was developed by ancient masters by extracting the essence of the art.

Hongying Tongchixiang's blood and qi suddenly surged, and she fell straight backward at an incredible speed.

Physical laws

It was as if she didn't exist.

At the same time, he spread his arms wide, like a hawk soaring close to the ground, and in an instant, he circled behind Zhu Ju.

The suddenness and speed of her movements made it arguably the most brilliant moment of her life.

Even so, the incoming force still left a bloody gash on his throat; had he been a fraction of a second slower...

His throat likely broke on the spot, killing him instantly, which shows how dangerous it was just now.

"what?"

Zhu Jukou expressed surprise and doubt.

He was clearly slightly surprised by the opponent's quick thinking, and then turned and threw a punch.

Giant Spirit Fist!
An invisible fist intent condensed at the tip of the fist, and the Bright Armor within the body trembled slightly, completely enveloping the body.

in a blink.

He transformed into a cold, steel giant.

"Crack!"

Although Hongying Tong Chixiang was a seventh-rank expert, he was still a mortal and could not withstand the weight of the Minghuang Armor.

As their fists and claws collided, her five fingers broke instantly, and the remaining force surged forward, blasting into her arm.

"Peng!"

The child screamed in agony and collapsed heavily to the ground.

"Seventh rank?"

"who are you?"

There were quite a few seventh-rank experts in Taiyuan Prefecture, but not many either, and she had heard of most of them.

But there seemed to be no one in front of him, and a dignified seventh-rank expert actually launched a sneak attack to assassinate him.

How shameless!
Faced with the questioning, Zhu Ju remained silent, stepped forward, his body moving like a mountain, his fists pressing down like Mount Tai.

He could only maintain the seventh rank for a limited time, and this time his opponent was far stronger than before.

Red Eagle was once a Rank 7 expert who had attempted to reach Rank 6, although he had declined from the peak of Rank 7 to the middle of Rank 7.

However, their methods and strength far surpass those of ordinary seventh-rank officials.

"what!"

Covered by the fist, with nowhere to dodge or avoid it, Tong Chixiang roared angrily:

"I'll fight you!"

Sky Eagle Claw!
A sharp aura suddenly arose, and the violent blood and qi seemed to converge into a soaring eagle in the sky.

A fierce claw strike enveloped the entire area.

"Humph!"

Zhu Ju snorted coldly.

He wasn't afraid of a head-on confrontation, but he was afraid of wasting time and attracting others.

Dragon and Elephant Strength!
Giant Spirit Fist Technique!

Ordinary techniques are transformed into magic in his hands; every move carries immense power, and every punch gives the illusion that it is impossible to dodge.

"Peng!"

"..."

Three simple punches.

One punch shattered the incoming claw technique, the second punch shattered Red Eagle Tong Chixiang's hope of turning the tide, and the third punch brought despair.

Equal level.

A seventh-rank official is no match for Zhu Ju.

not to mention.

He launched a surprise attack first, severely damaging the target ahead of time.

Ok?
Just as Zhu Ju was pressing his advantage and preparing to finish off his opponent in one fell swoop, a sense of alarm suddenly rose in his heart.

Danger!

"Shh!"

He touched the ground with his toes, and the ground suddenly sank down, which he used to retreat rapidly.

at the same time.

Red Eagle Tong Chixiang's eyes gleamed with malice, and he roared as a stream of blood mist suddenly gushed from his chest.

"Zi..."

The blood mist spread over an area of several feet, and everything within its reach dissolved.

Zhu Ju had already left the area shrouded in blood mist, but he still felt dizzy and his heart was racing.

"You've been poisoned by my blood..."

Staring at Zhu Ju, Hongying Tong Chixiang gritted his teeth and growled:

"They must die too!"

"Pfft!"

She swayed and collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

The so-called blood poison was actually hidden in her heart, a desperate, life-or-death gamble.

"Blood poison?"

Zhu Ju put away the Bright Armor, touched his heart which was beating much faster than usual, and frowned slightly:

"This poison can even travel along the blood and qi to the heart..."

"It's quite interesting."

He pursed his lips, then leaped onto the courtyard wall, letting out a muffled groan, and stumbled into the darkness, disappearing from sight. His physical body, having merged with his seven souls and life essence, possessed astonishing regenerative abilities; the blood poison was not fatal.

However, it will inevitably be affected in the short term.

If they were surrounded by the other members of the Skyhawk Bandits at this moment, they might really be caught off guard and suffer a crushing defeat.

"It's careless!"

"After all, he was once a peak seventh-grade expert. This assassination attempt was too hasty. If the plan had been more thorough, he wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state. His former strength at the Nascent Soul stage made him too arrogant."

Zhu Ju's eyes flickered as he quickly scanned his surroundings.

"Let's find a place to hide first."

Zhou House.

Zhou Ruxuan carried the teapot into the main hall.

"Second brother."

"Ah."

Zhou Jingren stood up:
How is Father?

"It's the same old story; I feel unwell whenever I catch a cold, but I feel much better now that I'm asleep," Zhou Ruxuan said.
"It's alright, it's been like this for so many years."

“My father went astray in his cultivation practice back then, and the aftereffects have become intractable,” Zhou Jingren sighed.

"I'll try to find a renowned doctor to see if they can treat this."

"Hmm." Zhou Ruxuan was already used to her father's health condition; after all, it was just a minor ailment. She then asked:
"I heard someone else was robbed outside the city. Doesn't the Sanhe Gang care?"

“A demon…” Zhou Jingren shook his head:

"You do not understand."

"How could I not understand?" Zhou Ruxuan frowned.

"Isn't it just that Hai Yunzhou is greedy for money? Doesn't he know that the reputation of the Sanhe Gang is not as good as that of the Qingyi Gang now?"

"Your gang leader is truly useless!"

"Shut up!" Zhou Jingren's face darkened.
"Don't underestimate the gang leader. He's no ordinary person; he rose from the bottom to where he is today."

"only……"

"Hai Yunzhou just helped the Sanhe Gang take Taiyuan Prefecture, and now he's turning his back on them. That's too cold-hearted."

"hold on."

"Wait for what?" Zhou Ruxuan frowned.

"Let's wait for an opportunity," Zhou Jingren said.
"almost."

…………

Sanhe Gang's headquarters.

back door.

The vulture stood in the darkness, its face somber.

Behind him was a cart, on which lay the still-warm body of Hongying Tongchixiang.

"Let's go back."

One person spoke:
"Master Crocodile said that we must prioritize the overall situation and not let the death of one person ruin Young Master Hai's important plans."

"rest assured."

Seeing the vulture's cold gaze, he changed the subject and said:
“Once Young Master Hai becomes a great demon, Taiyuan Prefecture will be under our control, and finding the murderer will be a piece of cake.”

"Let's go back!"

under night.

The cold wind whipped up fallen leaves.

The vulture's body was like a wooden stick, firmly rooted to the spot.

"I just went out to order some food and drinks. If I hadn't gone, maybe my wife wouldn't have had this accident."

"Seventh Master," someone spoke from behind him.
"What should we do now?"

"The third leader is dead. He was murdered right here in this city. Are we just going to ignore it?"

Reporting it to the authorities is definitely out of the question.

Sky Eagle Thieves are notorious bandits, and anyone who kills Red Eagle Child Incense can receive a reward.

The demons of the Sanhe Gang clearly have no intention of paying attention to this now.

"Ah……"

The vulture raised its head, its face contorted in a ferocious expression:
"The big picture?"

"In order to raise enough silver to buy pills, Hai Yunzhou did not hesitate to let demons rob passing merchants and allowed his subordinates to plunder silver on a large scale, even though the wealthy households in the city were complaining."

He murmured:
"Now……"

"They're worried about affecting the overall situation just because I asked them to help investigate the murderer who killed my wife."

How ridiculous!

The vulture grinned, its face a mixture of crying and laughing, before gradually descending into madness.

"go with!"

"Burn those demon-attracting herbs!"

"Ah!" The subordinates behind him changed color drastically:
"head."

"The demon-attracting herb will unleash the beastly nature of demons. There are many demons in the city now. If they go berserk..."

"Go do it!" The vulture turned sharply, his face contorted with malice.

"Don't make me say it a second time!"

"Yes." The subordinate's heart pounded wildly.
"I'm going right now!"

He hurriedly ran towards the courtyard of his residence.
