Chapter 32. The cold moon is dim
Chapter: 4716 Words
"Bang!" A shiny sword knocked away the machete in Zheng Long's hand, forcing him to retreat. Four figures gradually walked out of the darkness: Yi Yun, Ichigo, Frank, and Ming Dianfei. Each of them held a weapon in their hands and calmly walked towards the chaotic crowd.
Zheng Long knew that the other party was not an ordinary person, but he had no choice but to attack. Frank stood where he was, waiting for Zheng Long's attack. Just as Zheng Long's sword was about to reach him, Frank turned his hand and pushed the machete away. It looked like a light block, but the force made Zheng Long lose his balance. Frank didn't think much about it and stabbed at Zheng Long. This was not a martial arts competition or a lesson, but a real underworld massacre.
Zheng Long impeached him. Even with his martial arts skills, he had never seen such an opponent in his years of fighting in the underworld. Frank's sword was like a silver-white flood dragon as it wrapped around Zheng Long. Zheng Long was unable to resist and his chest was pierced.
This was their strength. If one wanted to reach their realm or even surpass them, they had to go through painstaking training and continuous comprehension to break through their limits. Only then could they become true experts.
I retreated into the darkness and watched the battle in front of me.
Yi Yun and the other three quickly killed Han Bingtao, Sun Ya, and more than sixty members of the Cold Moon Hall. Yue Qiu was left to Jin. He had to break through and use this method to improve himself.
Yue Qiu's strength could be said to be on par with Guan Aoxiang's, but he had always been overshadowed by Guan Aoxiang's sharpness. He had already completely fallen into a berserk state. He would not stop until he tore Ash apart. Even if he ended up beheaded, he would not wake up from his confusion until he took his life.
The saber in Jin's hand slashed out waves of blades, and Yue Qiu also slashed crazily. Both of them were covered in wounds. My heart ached when I saw this. I really wanted to help him, but I knew that if any of us attacked, even if we won, Ke Jin would never be able to get over this hurdle. Only by relying on his own strength to improve could he become stronger.
"You're not my match." Yue Qiu roared," It's not the last moment yet. Who knows?" I only know that you will lose today." Jin threw down this sentence and picked up the machete that was missing a mouth. He turned sideways and flipped three times. The blade turned around at his waist. Even I couldn't see his knife clearly.
Yue Qiu was shocked and hurriedly swung his saber at Jin, who was still in midair. At this moment, Jin was completely weightless and could not change his direction at all. "Jin, be careful!"
However, Jin was not afraid at all. He saw that the knife in Yue Qiu's hand was about to slash at him, but he threw the knife. Yue Qiu's center of gravity and strength were completely placed on his right hand that was wielding the knife. It was already too late to retract the knife and dodge. The knife sank into his shoulder. Jin was also injured by Yue Qiu's knife, and there was a long wound on his chest.
Jin fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. He didn't stop but took a step forward. He grabbed the knife that was stuck in Yue Qiu's shoulder and slashed with all his strength, cutting off his entire left arm along with the bones and flesh.
"Ah!" Yue Qiu was in so much pain that he almost fainted. Jin pulled out his knife and chopped off his head. He stood in the dark with a machete in his hand, covered in blood, like a demon god in the dark night. This was the first time I felt that Ember's figure was so aloof…
The members of the Sky Shaking Triad had already killed the Cold Moon Hall members until they could not fight back. A large number of corpses lay on the ground, and blood flowed slowly on the ground...
Almost half of the people who had fallen had lost their vitality, while the other half were struggling in pain. The members of the Cold Moon Hall who were standing had no strength to resist. They saw that their leaders had all died, and their brothers around them had fallen one after another. Their bodies were broken and they fell into a pool of blood.
"We surrender!" A person from the Cold Moon Hall shouted, and most of the others followed suit. If they did not choose to surrender, what awaited them was absolute death.
The people of the Cold Moon Hall dropped their broken sabers and held their heads with their hands, signaling them to stop resisting.
"Take them back. The rest of you clean up the scene.”Mo Fei ordered.
Ember and I stood side by side. We were both extremely exhausted, but we had both broken through from the battle. Our battle prowess had at least doubled, but we knew that it was far from enough.
"The battle on Murong Nuo's side is almost over. Let's retreat quickly. Otherwise, if they discover our whereabouts, we might be exposed to Gui Fu.”said Jin.
The people of the Zhentian Gang quickly cleaned up the battlefield. Jin and I followed Yi Yun and Ming Dianfei to the back door of the park.
A cold wind blew past, and the leaves rustled. The faint sound of insects echoed in the surroundings.
We walked to the back door of the park. There was a van parked at the door. Yi Yun pulled the door open and we got in. The car started and drove us to an unknown place.
Uncle Tai who was sitting in the driver's seat said," Murong Nuo has already subdued all the members of Cold Moon Hall who were left behind to guard South Cloud Street. She is now arranging for her own people to be inserted." I think we can take full control of the Cold Moon Hall tomorrow.”I heaved a sigh of relief.
"I've found a new place for you guys to live. The old place might have been found out. I've asked Cao Jie and Rayen to find a place for you guys. Zhu Xiao and Yuan E have transferred the weapons there.”Uncle Tai continued.
"The next step is to use the Cold Moon Hall's power and today's incident to intensify the conflict between the three halls. We'll try to take down the Evil Punishment Hall and Scarlet Flame Hall within five days.”Jin said," Then how much value do you think the Zhentian Gang still has?”"At least until South Side is completely taken over, they're of great value. We won't frame them anyway. We'll just use each other to achieve our goals."”
The car drove to an elevator apartment. When we got out of the car, Jin Yuan was already waiting downstairs. We followed him up the elevator to the thirty-ninth floor. The room was at the end of the corridor.
Uncle Tai took out two keys and handed them to Ash and me. Rayen heard us coming back and opened the door.
The room was clean and tidy. It was an elevator apartment for middle-to-high-end white-collar workers. All the electrical appliances and furniture were complete. Cao Jie was placing firearms and other items. We sat on the sofa. Zhu Xiao and Jin Yuan brought the first aid kit and disinfected and bandaged Jin and my wounds.
Although there were more than a dozen wounds of various sizes on his body, they were not serious. They were just superficial injuries. He had only been punched by Guan Feixiang a few times, so his body was in some pain. In addition, he had been confronting spirit essence for so long, so his body was even more tired.
There were also a few wounds on Jin's body, but they weren't serious and would heal very quickly. Only then did I relax. I closed my eyes to rest and asked Jin Yuan to apply disinfectant on me before wrapping it with bandages.
"Scarlet Flame Hall's Hall Master Feng Jiayi isn't that simple. He's not like Cold Moon Hall's Hall Master Shang, who's an emotional person. Moreover, his combat strength was the strongest among the Three Great Halls of the South District, much higher than Shang. There was another tough battle coming up.”Uncle Tai said.
"How is the strength of the Hall Master Peng Yu?”I asked," Compared to Shang, it should be 50 - 50.”Jin said," When I observed him yesterday, I also felt that his strength should be about the same as Shang.”
" Since they're both too powerful, let them fight each other…" Ichigo said.
"What do you have in mind?" Uncle Tai asked me, and I rubbed my wrist." Today, the head of the Malevolent Punishment Hall, Deng Xianwei, and the head of the Scarlet Flame Hall, Jia Ting, Shen Gu, and Tan Lu, all died in the Cold Moon Hall's territory. Moreover, they were invited to Nanyun Street. I'm sure Peng Yu and Feng Jiayi will be furious.”
"Do you mean they will think that Cold Moon Hall is trying to show their strength and intensify the conflict between the three halls?”Yi Yun asked.
"Yes, and with Peng Yu's personality, he'll definitely go straight to the Cold Moon Hall. Feng Jiayi would either attack together with Peng Yu, or wait until both the Evil Punishment Hall and the Cold Moon Hall were heavily injured before attacking. His goal was nothing more than to seize the Cold Moon Hall's territory and prestige.”I took the water from Rayen and drank a mouthful.
"If things develop like this, it will be very smooth. If Feng Jiayi doesn't move, what should we do?”Zhu Xiao asked. I held the cup and shook it gently."He probably won't, but if he really wants to use silence to control silence, we'll fight back with action. He definitely won't be able to hold back. So we…"
The next day, we lay in bed the whole morning. We were too tired these days, so we slept a little more to relax our tired bodies and recover our best energy.
I lay on the bed and stretched my shin. The sunlight outside the window seeped into the room through the curtains.
"Jin, do you think the people Murong Nuo arranged to enter the Cold Moon Hall will be able to suppress South Cloud Street?”I turned my head and asked. Ember closed his eyes and said sleepily,"It should be possible. He might also be an outer member of Gui Fu.”
I turned on the TV and scrolled through the boring TV programs. There wasn't any important news, so I turned off the TV and went to the kitchen to get something to eat.
Half an hour later, I came out with two dishes. Cao Jie and the others had prepared enough vegetables, meat, eggs, and other food for us in advance. There were also a lot of processed food. It was obvious that they were very thoughtful.
"Jin, get up and eat." I shouted. Jin slowly got up from the bed, washed his face, brushed his teeth, and sat at the dining table.
"Kaede, I had a very strange dream last night.”Jin said as he picked up some food. "What strange dream?" I asked.
"I dreamed of a mountain. There was a temple on the mountain, and in the temple was an old monk and a young disciple.”As Jin spoke, he kept stuffing food into his mouth. The way he ate made me want to laugh, but I held it in.
"And then?" " I asked." Jin continued," That little disciple suddenly fell ill. She had a terrible fever and was lying on the bed, trembling all over. The old monk walked to his little disciple's sickbed and said to him,"" Master went down the mountain to the market to sell medicine for you. He'll be back soon. I have to lie down and rest obediently and wait for Master to return.'Then, the old monk went down the mountain alone.”
As I listened, I couldn't help but stop eating. I listened carefully to Ash talk about his dream."The old monk had just walked down the mountain when he heard someone calling him from behind. He turned around and saw his little disciple standing in front of him in a healthy and lively manner. The little disciple said to him,'Master, I've already recovered from my illness. It's just that I've never gone to the market to play.'The old monk looked at his little disciple's watery eyes and carried her on his back, walking towards the market.”
At this moment, Jin also stopped eating. He tapped his chopsticks and continued to preach,"The master and disciple went to the market. The little disciple had never been to the market before. The old monk took him to eat candied haws, fried cakes, and candies, and bought him a small paper figurine. On this day, they had fun. The old monk brought his little disciple to see many things that he had never seen before. The master and disciple played until dusk before they walked up the mountain. When they reached the foot of the mountain, the old monk was about to turn around to carry his little disciple, but when he turned around, there was nothing.”
I couldn't help but feel nervous, as if I had expected the outcome.
" The old master quickly ran up the mountain," Jin continued." When he left, the gate of the temple was tightly closed, but now there is a gap. He rushed into the temple and ran to his little disciple's room. When he opened the door, he found his little disciple lying on his sickbed. The old monk touched it with his hand. Little disciple's body was still warm, but there was no breathing or heartbeat. It was obvious that she had just died. Little disciple's hand was still holding that slightly wrinkled little paper doll…"
I was deeply shocked. This was an extremely terrifying and strange story.
" I feel like this dream is hinting at something. It might have something to do with us," Ash muttered to himself and started eating again.
I also lowered my head and ate the rice in my bowl. I couldn't help but think of the scene in Ash's dream…
After dinner, we packed up and headed to Jade Tiger Street.
Jade Tiger Street originally belonged to the Cold Moon Hall's Xiao, but because Xiao died, the Cold Moon Hall did not send people to take over Jade Tiger Street in time, so there were constantly other sects who had ideas. And the Punishment Hall and Scarlet Flame Hall would definitely not let go of this piece of fat meat that was about to reach their mouths.
When they arrived at Jade Tiger Street, the security here was obviously much more chaotic. Many hooligans were swaggering through the streets, and the entire street was already in a foul atmosphere.
Most of the Cold Moon Hall members who stayed behind were Xiao's subordinates, and they had been killed long ago. The remaining dozens of people were also sent by the Cold Moon Hall, but how could they resist the harassment of other sects? Ever since the Sky Shaking Triad and the Skeleton Triad joined forces with the other sects in the South District, those small sects had forgotten about the prestige and power of the Black Sun. They kept invading the Cold Moon Hall's territory. It was unknown what method Big Dipper and the others had used to make them go against the black sun like moths darting into a flame.
On the streets, some hooligans were quarreling with the people of the Cold Moon Hall, and there were even conflicts between them. Compared to the previous public security situation, the current situation was not optimistic for the Cold Moon Hall.
Jin and I were walking on Jade Tiger Street, and we would occasionally hear people talking about the rumors of the South District's Third Hall falling out with each other. Some of the hooligans were even thinking about joining a certain sect now, even if it was just an outer member. They would not be suppressed like usual.
People had all kinds of thoughts and speculations.
I didn't pay too much attention to it and walked straight to a casino on Jade Tiger Street.
The casino was already overcrowded. All kinds of people were playing in the casino, throwing large amounts of money out. Those scantily dressed girls were smiling at the gambling table as they started the game for the gamblers.
This was a place of depravity, a place of madness.
Ember went to another bar. We had our own tasks.
I came to the third floor of the casino and walked to a private room. The voices of gamblers came from inside. "Additional Stakes!" "I bet twenty!" "The dealer deals!"
I smiled coldly and reached out my hand from my pocket to open the door of the private room. There were five middle-aged men sitting at the gambling table. Each of them had a seductive woman beside them and a waiter. At the four corners of the private room, there were six muscular men standing straight.
"Ah 'Chen!" A middle-aged man at the gambling table shouted to a bodyguard. The man closest to me walked straight towards me. His thick arm pulled towards me. I stood in place and didn't move. I grabbed the man's fist and his other hand was about to attack my waist. However, I used my knee to press against his abdomen. His body immediately bent in pain.
I grabbed his fist and pulled it forward with force. I heard a crisp "crack" sound. His wrist had been broken by me.
The man groaned and raised his broken wrist to dodge to the side.
The expressions of the middle-aged men present changed drastically. The girls froze on the spot, their faces turning green. The waiter was already hiding in the corner in fear.
"You're the contact for the drug trade in the Cold Moon Hall?”I pulled out a chair and sat down leisurely, looking at the men in front of me.
"Who exactly are you?" A man in his forties asked. "Who I am is not important. What is important is that I have an important message for you.”I said lightly.
