I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"Who the hell are you calling an idiot?"

Hu Yihui broke down, erupting in fury, "Duan Tianxing, you bastard, you're all talk and no action, but you've got quite the ambition!"

"Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? King of the East Sea? You really dare to say that! Aren't you afraid people will laugh their heads off?"

Do you know who you're dealing with?

"I don't need to say more about my Uncle Qin; he could crush you with a single finger!"

"My brother Dong is ten times more capable than you. How dare you dream of becoming the King of the East China Sea? Are you a turtle?"

Instead of getting angry, Duan Tianxing laughed, "Hu Yihui, are you so agitated because I touched a sore spot?"

"Your father, Hu Qingshan, has spent most of his life in Donghai, but he hesitated at crucial moments, leaving the Qingshan Chamber of Commerce in a mediocre state. You must regret that it didn't continue to grow and expand, right?"

"I admit I admire Hu Qingshan a little, but only a little. He had the chance to become the underground emperor of Donghai, but he gave it up. In the end, it was because he lacked the courage!"

"It's too late to regret it now. I'll finish what he didn't!"

He became increasingly smug as he spoke, "Do you know who these people are?"

"They are all martial artists I hired at great expense, all of them Earth Realm experts!"

"I've been keeping them hidden all along, preventing them from making a move. Even the Shadow Martial Hall doesn't know they exist. As long as the Shadow Martial Hall doesn't notice, who in the East China Sea can stop me?"

Duan Tianxing's smile vanished as he looked at Hong Zhendong with utmost seriousness. "Chairman Hong, don't blame me for being ruthless. Blame yourself for standing in a position you shouldn't be in!"

"However, I still want to give you a chance to cooperate with me. Let's take down Hu Qingshan together, firmly grasp the Qingshan Chamber of Commerce in our own hands, and create a great enterprise together. What do you say?"

Hong Zhendong chuckled. "Duan Tianxing, didn't you hear what Young Master Hui just said?"

"Take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror before you speak. I'm genuinely worried you'll laugh yourself to death!"

He turned to Qin Ge, "Brother Qin, I'm sorry, it's all because my men are useless that someone like Duan Tianxing barged in here and offended your eyes."

"He seems to be just overly ambitious. He hired a few experts at the Earth Realm and thinks he can run rampant in the East Sea. He probably has no other value!"

To put it simply, I think this guy is useless, but I can't do anything about him right now. I'd appreciate it if you could take action or have Su Wenxi take action and just kill them!

Qin Ge smiled as well, "It certainly doesn't seem to have much value!"

"Li Yan, is your eldest son on a drug overdose, or did he eat some poisonous mushrooms? Has he always been like this, acting like he's sick?"

"It's quite an achievement that you were able to build such a business under his guidance!"

He gestured with his chin towards Su Wenxi. "Duan Tianxing, do you know who she is?"

"Didn't you say that the expert you hired was unknown even to the people of the Shadow Martial Hall?"

"Seriously speaking, she's also a member of the Shadow Martial Hall, and so am I. How come you didn't even know that?"

"You're from the Shadow Martial Hall?!" Duan Tianxing was startled and looked Qin Ge and Su Wenxi over carefully again, his expression full of doubt and surprise.

"Mr. Duan, don't be intimidated by this kid." The man at the front spoke up, his gaze fixed on Qin Ge. "This kid doesn't have a trace of true qi. He's not a martial artist at all, and he can't possibly be from the Shadow Martial Hall!"

Then his gaze shifted to Su Wenxi. "This girl is a bit strange. She's clearly a martial artist, but I can't discern the depth of her cultivation. Could it be that her strength far surpasses mine?"

"So young, even a martial artist couldn't be that strong!" Duan Tianxing's eyes lit up as he looked at Su Wenxi. "This girl is truly a beauty beyond compare. How come I didn't notice her before?"

"Gentlemen, please hurry and make your move. The Qingshan Chamber of Commerce has a deep foundation, and Hong Zhendong and his men may be deliberately stalling for time. If we continue to drag this out, things might change!"

"Since Hong Zhendong is so unreasonable and unwilling to cooperate with me, then let's kill him!"

"Leave no one alive except this girl. If possible, try not to hurt her; I need someone to warm my bed tonight!"

Li Yan's gaze kept shifting between Qin Ge and Su Wenxi, his heart in turmoil.

Should I say something first to lay the groundwork so I can beg for mercy later? But who should I bet on to win?

Duan Tianxing's side consisted of four Earth Realm experts, whose strength was considerable.

On Hong Zhendong's side, Hong Zhendong and Hu Yihui are not reliable. It's just that this Qin Ge and that stunningly beautiful girl, I wonder what their background is and how strong they are.

Hong Zhendong's respect for Qin Ge must mean that Qin Ge is no ordinary person; he must either have a powerful background or possess extraordinary abilities!

Perhaps it wasn't just a bluff to scare people, and they really were from the Shadow Martial Hall!

"Duan Tianxing!"

"Don't be so arrogant!"

Li Yan made up his mind and decided to take a gamble. If he won, his life in Dongyang might be better in the future.

"You really don't know your place anymore. You even dare to covet Young Master Qin's woman. Do you have a death wish?"

"I, Li Yan, was truly blind to have associated with someone like you. It's an utter disgrace!"

Duan Tianxing's head was buzzing. Had Li Yan suddenly gone mad?

I have an absolute advantage, yet he still chooses to stand on the opposite side. He's usually quite shrewd, so why is he being so stubborn right now?

Even Qin Ge and Hong Zhendong were surprised that Li Yan was so brave. This kid is really talented. Maybe he can make a name for himself in Dongyang in the future!

"Speak!" Su Wenxi stared straight at Qin Ge, who had been rambling on for so long, she had long lost her patience.

Qin Ge gestured, "Kill them!"

"Still pretending?" The middle-aged man at the front threw a punch at Su Wenxi. "Let me see what you're really made of!"

Seeing this, Duan Tianxing cried out urgently, "Don't hurt her..."

"Click—"

"Click—"

Before he could finish speaking, two crisp sounds rang out, sending chills down his spine.

In a flash, Su Wenxi snapped the man's arm and then his neck, swiftly and decisively.

The man was already a corpse when he fell to the ground. Duan Tianxing and the other three stood frozen in place, their eyes wide open, unable to believe what they were seeing.

died? !

After being stunned for a long time, they all gasped in shock. How could this woman's strength be so terrifying?

Even experts at the Earth Realm were utterly helpless against her!

No, two hits.

That's terrifying!

What should I do? Should I kneel down, kowtow, and beg for forgiveness, saying that I was just joking?

Duan Tianxing's mind raced, but before he could make up his mind, Su Wenxi was already in front of him.

The three Earth Realm experts protecting him didn't even see what happened before he was sent flying.
