With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

A tall, burly man carrying a large knife walked up to them, pointing to the large bags on their backs. "What are you carrying on your backs?"

Seeing his large size, Wei Yang took two steps back in fear. "This is the luggage we brought, some changes of clothes... and a fox fur cloak..."

"A baggage? A fox fur cloak?" The burly man clearly didn't believe him. "Open the bundle and let us check it."

"Let you inspect? On what grounds?" Wei Yang immediately clutched a small bundle in his hand.

"Why should I? Because I'm Master Zeng's man. If you want to leave, put down your bags and let me check them." The big man grinned maliciously as he approached step by step.

"Just because you're Master Zeng's men, does that give you the right to inspect other people's things at will?"

Wei Yang and the other seven men retreated in fear.

"That's not up to you." The big man reached out and snatched the bundle from Wei Yang's arms.

"What are you going to do? This is my stuff." Wei Yang held the small bundle tightly in his hands.

"Give it to me!" The big guy raised his foot to kick him.

Wei Yang was startled and quickly dodged. Because of the tug-of-war between the two, the small bundle in his hand was torn open, and the contents inside all fell out with a clatter.

When the big guy saw what had fallen, his eyes widened immediately.

"They're gold ingots!"

The dozens of people behind them all crowded around, their eyes filled with greed as they looked at the gold ingots on the ground.

"If there's so much gold in just one bundle, then the large bundles you're carrying must be filled with gold and silver treasures."

"Could these guys have found treasure?"

"Quick, snatch all the bundles from their bodies."

"We've struck it rich!"

"Put down your bags and get out of here! Otherwise, you'll lose your lives!" The burly man pointed his broadsword at the seven of them.

"Okay, you can have everything, just don't hurt us." Wei Yang looked terrified, first putting down the backpack on his back, then unzipping it to reveal the contents inside, which were golden.

"They're gold ingots too. These people have so much gold; they really have found a treasure."

Suddenly, "whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

A flash of dazzling cold light appeared, followed by screams of agony. A dozen or so people fell to the ground, each with a bloody gash on their neck.

At the same time, Wei Yang also made his move, drawing his sword and slicing off the big guy's head as he bent down to snatch the bag.

Bei Chenyan reached out, caught the returning boomerang blade, and flung it out again.

"Ahhh..."

Several more people fell.

Those behind were shocked and raised their swords to defend themselves.

"court death."

Nangong Wu and Sun Xunzhen also drew their swords and attacked the Zeng family's henchmen.

These people were mediocre in martial arts, and usually relied on the Zeng family's power to bully others. Now that they had encountered such top-notch masters, they didn't even have a chance to fight back.

In a short while, more than thirty corpses lay on the ground, each with its throat slit open, blood spurting out. The remaining few people were so frightened that they turned and ran away.

Pei Xing wanted to give chase, but Bei Chenyan stopped him, saying, "No need to chase, let them go back and report."

If we kill all these people, how can we let Zeng Guanhai and Ling Yangzi know that they have a lot of treasures on them?

"Your Highness, Princess, where are we going now?" Wei Yang asked.

"Just wander around this valley. People from Changyang Temple could appear at any time, so you must protect yourselves," Nangong Wu said.

The people of Changyang Temple are all skilled in martial arts, and they also have muskets and gunpowder, making them difficult to defend against.

"Yes."

Wei Yang and Cao Li responded.

Every time they go out, if Princess Runing is with them, they always tell them to protect themselves instead of protecting His Highness the Crown Prince. Whenever their master does something dangerous, they never let them follow. It feels like these guards are superfluous.

Bei Chenyan took out a handkerchief, carefully wiped the boomerang blade, and put it away.

Nangong Wu took all the gold and her own bag.

The play is over; there's no need to carry a heavy bag anymore.

Besides Sun Xunzhen and Pei Xing carrying their own bundles, Bei Chenyan and several guards were carrying ammunition pouches.

The group packed their things and walked along the mountain stream.

About 15 minutes later, a group of about a hundred people arrived and blocked them in the ravine from both sides of the mountain.

"Sect Leader, they are the ones who killed more than thirty of our brothers." Someone pointed.

Bei Chenyan and Nangong Wu scanned the group of people but did not see any familiar faces.

"Judging from the fact that they don't have muskets, they probably aren't from Changyang Temple or Beichen Zhan."

"If Ling Yangzi and Bei Chenzhan don't show up, then continue killing."

"Your Highness, may we use guns?" Wei Yang asked in a low voice.

Nangong Wuwei shook her head slightly, "We can use a pistol with a silencer in critical situations to avoid scaring away Ling Yangzi and Beichen Zhan."

Ling Yangzi and Bei Chenzhan are probably watching from this area. If they were using automatic rifles and grenades, they wouldn't dare to show themselves.

"Understood, sir." Wei Yang nodded.

A pistol with a silencer makes less noise and looks like it's firing a concealed weapon.

The seven continued walking forward.

"Sect Leader?" Nangong Wu looked at the leader who was called Sect Leader and sneered, "No need to say, you are Tian Gui, the infamous leader of the Snake Spirit Society."

"Damn it!" Tian Gui, the leader of the Serpent Spirit Society, hadn't realized the disaster that was about to befall them. He pointed his broadsword and shouted, "Those who dare to kill our men, chop them up and take everything they have..."

Bei Chenyan suddenly flashed, turning into a blur as he pounced on Tian Gui.

Tian Gui was shocked. He raised his arm, and several small black venomous snakes shot towards him.

"Hmph!" Bei Chenyan was prepared. He spun around and soared into the sky, throwing out his boomerang blade.

Tian Gui hurriedly raised his knife to block.

"Clang!" He felt a jolt of numbness in his arm and was immediately shocked by the strength.

Seeing that Bei Chenyan had made a move, the six people behind him also moved, drawing their swords and charging forward.

The Serpent Spirits are skilled in Gu poison and other poisons; martial arts are no match for them, and a group of people are killed in the first encounter.

Seeing how powerful they were, the people behind them scattered poison powder and Gu worms.

However, they had already sprinkled anti-Gu insect powder on their bodies, and when they charged into the crowd, the Gu insects that had attacked them fell off one by one.

Within a minute or two, there were already thirty or forty corpses lying on the snow.

Seeing that they were not easy to deal with, the people on the mountain ordered their arrows to be fired.

"Shoot arrows! Shoot them dead quickly!"

Countless crossbows were aimed at the people in the mountain stream.

Nangong Wu grabbed a living person, held them in front of her, and shouted, "Shoot!"

Wei Yang and his men did the same, each grabbing a survivor to block their way.

"Bang!" A person crashed down heavily; it was Tian Gui.

Bei Chenyan also leaped down, his foot landing on Tian Gui's chest. "Useless trash, you dare to rob my things?"
