Chapter 83 (1/2)

Late at night, in the darksome alley that twists and turns are like a cobweb, a young man was running with a girl in his arms.

The whistling wind was like a knife, stinging Lin Xun’s wounds, but it was nothing compared with the anxiety in his heart.

Lin Xun found for the first time that, Shia Zhi had occupied an irreplaceable position in his heart for some time.

The moment he saw her hit to fly away, Lin Xun felt the whole world collapsed. All thoughts and all aspirations just disappeared, only leaving uncontrollable anger and madness.

It made Lin Xun shudder, for he knew for the first time that he could still be reasonless.

Shia Zhi in his arms opened her eyes and looked at Lin Xun quietly. She did not speak, but on her little pale face seemed to appear a faintly discernible smile.

Courtyard 49 was not far away, Lin Xun suddenly saw a figure standing in front of his house before feeling a little relief.

At the same time, that figure turned around, and he saw Lin Xun too. It was the boss of Golden Hall, Gu Yanping!

With a glance at Lin Xun, he seemed to understand something. He looked serious and said, “If Childe Lin believes in me, please let me guard here.”

Lin Xun’s voice was hoarse, “Thanks a lot.”

Saying that, he rushed into the house with Shia Zhi in his arms, and he had no time to think about why Gu Yanping was here late at night.

Seeing Lin Xun rush into the house, Gu Yanping turned around and stood silently at the door, just like a Door God.

In spite of mediocre appearance, when he stood there at the moment, he had the awe-inspiring and unshakable authority.

“Father, I have already learned that Black-tiger Gang’s headquarters caught on fire suddenly, and it was said that there was an invasion from strong opponents, but the specific situation cannot be known now.”

Soon, from the distant alley, a teenager hurriedly ran over. It was Gu Liang, the son of Gu Yanping.

“Mmm.”

“Lin Xun has been back. We should be ready. It may not be peaceful tonight.” Gu Yanping said, nodding his head.

A faint murderous intent flew across his face.

“Father, I’ve heard that the boss of Black-tiger Gang is a strong practitioner in Gang Spirit Realm. We…”

Before Gu Liang finished the sentence, he was interrupted by Gu Yanping, “No one can step into this door tonight.” The voice was resolute.

Gu Liang was in a trance for a moment, and then he nodded silently.

“Son, remember, a true merchant practitioner is not a falsehearted person, nor a vile character who shifts his ground according to circumstances!”

After a moment of silence, Gu Yanping said calmly, “Lin Xun helped us before. We should repay him with kindness. And it has nothing to do with whether he will cooperate with us in the future.”

Gu Liang had a shock in his mind, nodding solemnly, “I understand it.”

Gu Yanping nodded and looked far into the deep night. This night…might be long.

……

In the room, Lin Xun carefully put Shia Zhi on the bed. When he was anxious to find some spiritual medicine for Shia Zhi to heal the wound, suddenly he heard Shia Zhi say, “I only need to conduct cultivation for a period of time before recovery, so you needn’t worry anymore.”

Lin Xun sighed with relief, asking, “Don’t you really need take some spiritual medicine?”

Shia Zhi shook her head, “Since we have killed Tiger Lyu, it will definitely cause the Black-tiger Gang to be in a mess, and this will certainly attract the attention of other gangs. We Shuangmu Gang will also be hard to avoid the effect, so you should be more careful.”

Lin Xun immediately got the meaning of the words.

Once Tiger Lyu died, the Black-tiger Gang was leaderless, and turmoil was unavoidable, which was a great opportunity to merge it, and other gangs in the Civilian Area certainly would not miss such an opportunity.

This was nothing for Lin, but he had to be on his guard to see if the other gangs would take advantage of this opportunity to pick on Shia Zhi and him.

For it was now well known in the Civilian Area that he was the head of Shuangmu Gang, whose influence was expanding, and had seriously threatened the survival of other gangs.

Under such circumstances, if other gangs knew that Shia Zhi and he were both seriously wounded, they would be willing to seize the opportunity to kill him and Shia Zhi and him!

As it is said, when the snipe and the clam grapple, it’s the fisherman who profits.

As long as the other gangs were clear about tonight’s situation, they would not be indifferent!

On the bed, Shia Zhi had begun cultivation, and her cultivation method was quite distinctive. She seated with folded legs, her spine going perfectly straight and her shoulder relaxing, and interlocking ten fingers pinched into a strange gesture, putting in front of her body.

At the same time, an invisible power pervaded her, and she floated in the air.

Since sometime, that white bone spear also appeared, horizontal on Shia Zhi’s both knees. Wisps of cold silvery light, glowing on the surface of the spear, went into the body of Shia Zhi. It could be clearly perceived that the breath of Shia Zhi was quiet and long, as if she had entered a mysterious deep level of cultivation.

In previous days, except for eating, Shia Zhi just slept as if she had never conducted cultivation at all, and this was also the first time that Lin Xun had seen Shia Zhi’s cultivation.

Very mysterious!

This was the strongest feeling of Lin Xun. Quietly staring at her for a long time, Lin Xun found Shia Zhi’s breath became stable, and then felt relieved completely before quietly turning to walk out of the room.
