Ten Thousand Sword Masters

Black Horse Town.

After Qi Tian conquered the Fish Dragon Gang and unified the Jianghu world of Black Horse Town, it took him several days to reintegrate the two gangs.

Today, he led his newly integrated two million members of the Beast Gang to Cangxi Town, ready to conquer the White Tiger Gang.

Cangxi Town, the White Tiger Gang's headquarters, council hall.

The hall was filled with people, a large number, yet extremely quiet—so quiet that even the slightest heavy breathing could be heard.

After a long while, Vice Leader Wang Chaoyang spoke up: "Leader, Qi Tian possesses the Wind God Sword and has unified the martial arts world of Black Horse Town. He is unstoppable. We can temporarily withdraw from Cangxi Town, avoid his sharp edge, and wait for Lord Zhang to return."

After Wang Chaoyang finished speaking, everyone looked at Tang Guanshan, waiting for his decision.

Half a day later, Tang Guanshan slowly spoke: "I do know that Qi Tian has the Wind God Sword, which we cannot withstand. But if we withdraw from Cangxi Town like this, how will Lord Zhang view us? There is one thing everyone should understand: Lord Zhang is a member of the Nine Star Guard, not the leader of my White Tiger Gang."

"These past few days, thanks to Lord Zhang's high regard, he has used our White Tiger Gang as his henchmen to unify the martial world of Cangxi Town. If we flee at the first sign of trouble, showing no backbone, will Lord Zhang still value us in the future?"

"Chief Tang, tell us what we should do," a steward said gruffly.

"Chief, since you've put it that way, then I'll have a good fight with Qi Tian, ​​so that Lord Zhang won't look down on us."

"We outnumber the Ten Thousand Beasts Gang, we're not afraid of them!"

In an instant, the White Tiger Gang deacons in the council hall became excited.

"Everyone, listen to me."

At this moment, Xie Xiancheng spoke up.

The members of the Fish Dragon Gang that Xie Xiancheng brought have been incorporated into the White Tiger Gang. Some have become stewards, and some have become elders, but he does not have any position yet. In Tang Guanshan's words, he will be given a position after Zhang Jianyun returns.

"None of you have seen the Wind God Sword, so you don't know its power. As for the people using it, we only have a little over a hundred more than the Ten Thousand Beasts Gang, which is no advantage. Besides, they are all ordinary martial artists. With so few ordinary martial artists, we're just feeding Qi Tian."

Upon hearing Xie Xiancheng's words, everyone present fell silent as if they had been doused with cold water.

"A person should know their own limitations, especially a gang. We are responsible for the lives and fortunes of our men. Besides, given Lord Zhang's magnanimity, he wouldn't look down on us because of this. Aren't I a prime example?"

"I came here from Black Horse Town on the run, and Lord Zhang accepted me and even took my advice to quickly go and find the Thunder God Sword to fight against Qi Tian."

"Don't worry about being looked down upon by Lord Zhang if you can't win and have to run away. Instead, you should worry about your strength not keeping up with the changing situation and not meeting Lord Zhang's minimum requirements."

"I think if you're not strong enough, you'll be abandoned sooner or later."

Xie Xiancheng's words made the council chamber even quieter.

"Brother Xie, I wish to follow your example and leave a portion of our gang to resist Qi Tian, ​​while leading the rest to retreat to Nanfeng City, the county seat where Luozhuang Town is located, to wait for Lord Zhang's return. What do you think?" Tang Guanshan said.

"There was no need to leave the gang members to resist; that would be making them sacrifice themselves in vain. I left some members to resist Qi Tian because there wasn't enough time for everyone to escape," Xie Xiancheng said.

Upon hearing this, Tang Guanshan pondered for a moment and then gritted his teeth and said, "Then that's settled. Issue my order: all members of the White Tiger Gang must assemble immediately and retreat to Nanfeng City."

"Yes."

All the deacons accepted the order.

Once the order was given, the entire White Tiger Gang sprang into action, bringing everything they could carry.

drive!

Upon seeing the White Tiger Gang's movements, the scouts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Gang in Cangxi Town immediately rode off to report to Qi Tian.

Giddy up! Giddy up!

After a frantic run, the scout encountered Qi Tian and his men on the road.

"Reporting to the gang leader, the White Tiger Gang is about to withdraw from Cangxi Town."

Upon hearing the scout's report, Qi Tian paused for a moment before speaking: "Li Yong, you lead the gang to Cangxi Town as planned. I will go alone to hunt down the White Tiger Gang members."

"Understood."

drive!

After Qi Tian finished speaking, he spurred his horse and galloped towards Cangxi Town.

Cangxi Town.

All members of the White Tiger Gang have assembled.

"Quickly, let's go, quick!" Wang Chaoyang shouted, and the hundreds of members of the White Tiger Gang set off with a roar.

"Jog forward, jog forward."

Boom boom boom!

The White Tiger Gang members suddenly started running, kicking up endless dust.

"What happened? Why did the White Tiger Gang withdraw from Cangxi Town so early?"

"Is the White Tiger Gang going to war? Their formation is so intimidating!"

"The world is about to change in Cangxi Town."

Upon hearing the constables' report of the White Tiger Gang's activities, Cao Jin, the official of Cangxi Town, was greatly alarmed and hurriedly rode off to find Tang Guanshan.

"Chief Tang, what happened?"

After catching up with the White Tiger Gang, Cao Jin questioned Tang Guanshan.

"Lord Cao, to be honest, the Beast Gang of Black Horse Town is on its way to Cangxi Town. Our gang is no match for them, so we have to withdraw from Cangxi Town," Tang Guanshan said.

"The Beast Gang of Black Horse Town?" Cao Jin had heard of the Beast Gang, but he didn't think that the Beast Gang had an absolute advantage over the White Tiger Gang, enough to make the White Tiger Gang flee without a fight.

Seeing Cao Jin's puzzled look, Tang Guanshan said, "The leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Gang has acquired the Divine Sword Wind God Sword, which possesses immense power. We cannot contend with it and have no choice but to retreat."

"I see," Cao Jin said, suddenly understanding. "Where are you headed?"

"We plan to go to Nanfeng City and wait for Lord Zhang to return," Tang Guanshan said.

"Then I wish you a safe journey," Cao Jin said.

Watching the White Tiger Gang members depart, Cao Jin frowned. He knew he had to speak with Zhang Jianyun once he returned, ensuring he kept the White Tiger Gang under control and prevent a conflict from erupting between them and the Ten Thousand Beasts Gang. After all, the Third Princess of the Dynasty had already begun her travels and could arrive in Lingzhou at any moment.

During such a special period, any slight movement will attract the attention of superiors.

Subsequently, Cao Jin prepared to impeach the mayor of Black Horse Town, arguing that during this period, gangs within his jurisdiction were actually attacking gangs in other towns, which was truly irresponsible.

Tang Guanshan led his group forward at a jog. After half a day, many of them were almost too tired to run anymore, but he still did not order them to rest.

"Hurry up, those who don't want to die, keep running. We'll only make arrangements once we reach Nanfeng City. Qi Tian wouldn't dare kill anyone in the county town." Tang Guanshan roared, urging everyone to move forward.

Giddy up! Giddy up!

After a long gallop, Qi Tian rode his horse to Cangxi Town. He learned from the scouts left there that the White Tiger Gang had fled south, so he rode south in pursuit.

The residents of Cangxi Town on both sides of the street, upon seeing Qi Tian carrying the Wind God Sword, with blood-red eyes and half of his hair turned white, all lowered their heads in fear and dared not speak.

Only after Qi Tian rode away from the town streets did the crowd erupt in uproar.

"Who was that person just now? They were terrifying."

"Could it be that the White Tiger Gang is only here because that's the town they've evacuated? It looks like the White Tiger Gang has encountered a formidable enemy."

For a time, people were talking about it.

I like the Ten Thousand Swords Master.
