The moon hung high in the sky, and a cool atmosphere enveloped the entire town of Jiuquan.
The deserted streets were just like last night, devoid of any human presence.
Upon arriving at the agreed-upon location, two carriages were already parked by the gate. Su Feng recognized one of them; it belonged to Shang Chuan…
The other car must belong to that Johnny.
"..."
Su Feng looked up at the second floor of the inn, where a light was on in the window, indicating that everyone had arrived.
He had a premonition that the place he was about to go was a den of dragons and tigers, a venomous pool and a snake's lair...
But there was no turning back now... We couldn't just turn a blind eye to those foreigners causing trouble in our eastern territory!
Taking a deep breath, Su Feng calmly stepped into the inn.
"Good evening, sir. Are you looking for an overnight stay or...?"
The innkeeper's staff greeted them warmly.
"No need to greet them, go ahead and get busy." Su Feng waved his hand, dismissing the other person.
The inn was still rather deserted, perhaps because it was so late. The surroundings were quiet, with only occasional sounds of conversation coming from other private rooms.
However, the atmosphere was somewhat eerie...
It's strangely unsettling.
【Drip】
[Yin energy detected. Shall we purify and absorb it?]
Tianyan's voice entered Su Feng's brain at an inopportune time, giving him the most direct warning.
Yin energy...
Yes, Su Feng had already noticed it before even entering the inn.
Tonight, the inn is filled with a sinister aura that permeates the entire place.
He glanced at the innkeeper leaning against the counter; the man still wore a smile.
Some of the murderous aura also emanated from this person...
"Heh—" Su Feng smiled, unconvinced, and continued walking towards the second floor.
It seems... this really is a den of dragons and tigers.
The Japanese have already occupied this place.
I reckon behind that counter lies the body of the real innkeeper's employee...
How could such a disguise escape his sharp eyes?
……
Upon reaching the second floor, Su Feng casually pushed open the door and entered the private room.
Just like last night, the table in the private room was laden with delicious food.
The only difference was that the room was completely empty.
The candlelight flickered slightly in the breeze blowing in from the window, casting Su Feng's shadow on the wall.
"No need to hide anything anymore." Su Feng calmly sat down, picked up the wine beside him, uncorked it, smelled it, and after confirming that it was not poisoned, drank it directly from the bottle.
The warm liquor went down my throat and into my body, a feeling of indescribable pleasure.
Swish, swish, swish——
Suddenly, several dark figures fell from the ceiling, and several people jumped in through the open window.
They were all dressed the same, and their status was only distinguished by the color of the headscarves covering their faces.
One of the men, whose foreheads were tied with purple cloth, removed his mask, revealing a familiar face.
"You are indeed not simple." Kamikawa smiled coldly and gave a wink to the dozen or so ninjas around him. They scattered and surrounded Su Feng.
Gollum-
Su Feng tilted his head back and downed the bottle of baijiu in one gulp, letting out a satisfied sigh. He wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said, "You guys never thought of introducing me to anyone, did you?"
It seems he was right; tonight's scene is clearly a trap.
The whole "Quanxing" thing is complete nonsense; it's just bait to lure him in.
"Hahaha—" Shangchuan suddenly threw his head back and laughed loudly, "Young Master Su, you are really humorous... I did want to do business with you at first, but only with people I could control."
Kamikawa stepped forward, his face contorted with rage, radiating murderous intent. "Why would I introduce someone like you, with such an unclear background, to that lord..."
"But don't worry, you won't be leaving tonight, and that general... Heh, once you're all dead, Jiuquan Town will be under the control of us Japanese!"
"All plans will proceed as scheduled!"
After listening to Kamikawa's self-righteous remarks, Su Feng raised an eyebrow.
It seems that this so-called plan and scheme never intended for them to be involved...
They were positioned as sacrificial lambs from the very beginning...
Yeah.
Now that the truth has been revealed, there's no need for him to hold back anymore.
Although making a big commotion might affect the surrounding residents, it doesn't matter anymore.
Nothing is more important than killing these Japanese.
"Is that so..." Su Feng put down the bottle and revealed a meaningful smile, "You can give it a try."
Swish!
A burst of spiritual energy erupted from Su Feng's body in an instant. Shang Chuan immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly took a few steps back.
"Everyone, form ranks! Kill them!"
After confirming that Su Feng had nowhere to escape, Kamikawa drew his sword and gave an order to the surrounding ninjas.
Miso miso miso!
In an instant, more than a dozen katana gleaming with cold light pointed directly at Su Feng's direction.
The sharp blade seemed capable of cutting through the hardest objects in the world.
With a roar from the lead ninja, everyone charged forward, brandishing their katanas.
……
Meanwhile, several figures slowly approached the residence where Jiang Dalong lived.
They quietly climbed over the walls, scaled the rooftops, and took over the entire mansion.
The soldier, smoking a cigarette by the door and still feeling the stuffiness of the night, was unaware of the looming danger behind him...
Swish!
In the blink of an eye, all the sentry soldiers had their throats slit and collapsed to the ground, convulsing.
The soldiers who remained in the courtyard were also eliminated at the same time.
These ghouls lurking in the darkness are gradually purging the living from the mansion.
At this moment, Jiang Dalong sat in his study, looking distressed and drinking alone.
He was preoccupied with finding a solution to the problem with the Japanese and was completely unaware that his men outside had been killed.
"Horse riding!"
Jiang Dalong cursed and smashed the wine glass on the ground.
He was feeling depressed and irritable.
Now he is being labeled a "traitor" for actively bringing Japanese people into his country. What a heavy burden this must be for him!
shhhhh--
However, at that moment, the door was blown open by a gust of wind, startling Jiang Dalong, who looked up sharply.
But there was no one outside the door.
"Who? Who is where?"
He picked up the pistol on the table, stood up shakily, and said, "Speak up, stop playing tricks!"
His entire body was on edge, extremely tense.
Just then, a hand slowly emerged from under his armpit and gently covered the back of his hand!
Jiang Dalong shuddered violently, his body frozen as if by ice, standing stiffly in place, afraid to move!
Someone is behind him!
"Hehehe—Why is the commander so nervous?"
A woman's voice came from behind.
The slender fingers covering the back of Jiang Dalong's hand were slowly removing his pistol.
Soon, the people behind him circled around to stand in front of Jiang Dalong.
The room was dimly lit, with only a single, faint candle burning, its light illuminating only half of the woman's face...
Her lips were crimson, her skin was as white as snow, and she was dressed in red... In the darkness, her eyes were glowing red.
"You...who are you?!"
Jiang Dalong felt a chill run down his spine and asked in a trembling voice.
"Hehehe—" the woman chuckled sinisterly, speaking in a soft, seductive tone, "My name is Yin Hong, and I am the leader of the Flower Sect."
The Flower School?
Jiang Dalong was completely baffled; he had never even heard of this name before.
“Oh dear—let me put it simply... I am also a disciple of Quanxing.”
Jiang Dalong immediately understood.
