The leader of the Money Gang also felt that Great Xia and that dog of an Emperor could not be let off easily.
Thus, with a grim expression, he said: The elders and hall master make a good point! Great Xia was rude to us first, disrupting our business and completely disregarding us. Therefore, we must teach them a profound lesson! Let them know that although the Money Gang is a small faction, we are not to be trifled with!
The leader is wise! everyone said in unison.
However, as a great kingdom, Great Xia has 800,000 troops and 5 Innate masters, with strong soldiers and horses and substantial strength. A head-on clash is not feasible; we must plan for the long term!
What the leader said is very true! everyone nodded in agreement.
Elder Baihu, heed my command! the leader of the Money Gang called out.
Leader, your subordinate is here! Elder Baihu stood up and bowed in respect.
The leader of the Money Gang spoke loudly, I order you to lead 100 of our Baihu Hall brothers to cause a great disturbance in the capital city of Great Xia!
Your subordinate obeys! Elder Baihu responded promptly.
At this moment, two elders stepped forward with beaming smiles.
Leader, Great Xia has several Innates, and just Elder Baihu alone might not be enough! I happen to be free recently, so Ill accompany him for a bit of fun and to avenge our fallen brothers!
Ill go too! Ive been here too long, and my bones have gotten loose. Its the perfect time to go out and clear my mind!
The leader of the Money Gang laughed heartily: Very well, very well, since both elders are so inclined, then go together! In this retaliation, we must display the might of our Money Gang! Haha!
Yes, leader! everyone chorused in unison.
So, the three elders gathered their troops and led the charge towards Great Xia.
At this very moment, Lin Beifan was in the imperial palace, savoring the delicacies and watching the court orchestra perform.
A playful and pleasant voice came through: Little foolish emperor, long time no see. You still know how to enjoy yourself!
As soon as the voice faded, a girl dressed in black appeared in front of Lin Beifan, reaching for the banana in his hand.
Then, a woman in white also appeared, wielding a sharp sword and thrusting fiercely at the girl in black.
The girl in black, with a light and agile twist, dodged the sword.
She extended two fingers, pinched the tip of the sword, and said with a laugh.
Not bad! You must be the new Innate assassin that this little foolish emperor has just recruited. Too bad youre still a bit behind me!
The girl in white faced the situation as if confronting a formidable enemy: Your Majesty, retreat quickly, this woman is extremely dangerous!
Lin Beifan waved his hand and chuckled, Bai Zhu, no need to be nervous, shes one of us. Her name is Yaoyao!
Is that so? Bai Zhu did not lower her guard.
Of course, if I wanted to kill that foolish emperor, I would have done it long ago! Yaoyao peeled a banana and began to eat it with a smile.
Lin Beifan stepped forward, opening his arms: Yaoyao, its been so long, Ive missed you!
Yaoyao was somewhat bewildered: What are you doing?
Lin Beifan blinked his eyes: Long time no see, how about a warm hug?
Bah! You never change, you foolish emperor, I wont let you take advantage of me!
Yaoyao cursed loudly, dodging Lin Beifans embrace and grabbing some fruit from the table, happily munching away.
Lin Beifan said speechlessly: Yaoyao, stop pretending, I know youve had me in your heart for a long time, okay?
As if her secret thoughts had been exposed, Yaoyao nervously blushed and retorted: Who says? Dont flatter yourself and spouting nonsense!
Still not admitting it, huh? With just one question, I can reveal your true feelings! Lin Beifan said proudly.
What question could possibly be so powerful? I dont believe it! Yaoyao shook her head.
Alright, then I shall ask, and you must answer honestly, dont lie! Lin Beifan perked up energetically.
Alright, I got it, just ask already! Yaoyao said impatiently.
Lin Beifan asked earnestly, Yaoyao, if you had to choose between two options, would you choose to eat shit or to love me?
Yaoyao:
Come on, speak up, and dont go against your conscience! Lin Beifan urged.
Yaoyao:
A moment passed.
Lin Beifan winced in pain, Ow, ow, ow
I choose to beat you to death! Yaoyao said irritably.
Bai Zhu watched the two teasing and bickering, feeling relieved, then her figure vanished.
Moments later, the two sat face to face. Yaoyao was eating fruit and spoke, Actually, I came here specifically to remind you that youve gotten yourself into trouble!
What trouble? Lin Beifan asked.
Didnt you smash up the Sifang Gambling House before? The Sifang Gambling House is backed by the Money Gang. They were very angry when they heard about it and sent three elders along with a hundred experts from the Baihu Hall to cause you trouble!
Those three elders are all Innate-level figures with extremely powerful strength! The hundred experts from the Baihu Hall, even the weakest among them, are Second-rate! They will arrive in the Great Xia Kingdom in about two days!
Do you realize youve gotten yourself into big trouble?
Lin Beifan was quite surprised: I merely smashed up a casino, and he sends so many people after me? Hes giving me too much credit.
Its just your bad luck. Initially, they planned to send an Innate and 100 experts, but two of the elders were bored and decided to join in for fun! Yaoyao said with a bit of schadenfreude.
Lin Beifan sighed: So thats how it is! Being alive is so good, why would they not think it through and come here seeking death?
Huh? What did you just say?
I was saying, youre really well-informed, even knowing so much about the Money Gangs affairs!
Of course!
Yaoyao said with pride: We have people in various sects, noble families, and nations; were the most well-informed! By the way, we also have our people in your Great Xia Kingdom. Do you want to know?
Lin Beifan shook his head: I dont want to know.
Why not?
Lin Beifan calmly replied: Because such things are very normal. Isnt it common for different powers to have insiders within each other? If the water is too clear, there are no fish. As long as it doesnt affect the rule, let them be!
It was Yaoyaos turn to be surprised: You really see things from a broad perspective!
Of course, almost all the officials under me are corrupt and greedy, busy flattering their superiors and bullying their subordinates every day. If I couldnt see the bigger picture, I would have been angered to death by now! Lin Beifan said very calmly.
Alright then, I was originally going to warn you to be careful of the officials below you, but it seems unnecessary now!
Yaoyao clapped her hands: Ive eaten my fill, time to go! Otherwise, Ill be discovered by that detestable woman!
Lin Beifan called out, Yaoyao, wait!
Yaoyao turned her head, meeting Lin Beifans affectionate eyes, her heartbeat suddenly quickening, Is there something else you need?
Lin Beifan said reluctantly, Yaoyao, are you really going to leave just like that?
What else? Yaoyao shyly lowered her head, gazing at her toes.
Could you answer one more question for me before you go?
What question?
Lin Beifan asked tenderly, Would you choose to eat shit, or choose to love me?
Yaoyao:
After a moment.
Lin Beifan: Ow, ow, ow
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The people of Money Gang, after several days of travel, finally arrived at the Great Xia Kingdom.
Were approaching Great Xia! Although Great Xia has only recently been promoted to a great kingdom, its strength is not to be underestimated! Therefore, everyone must be careful and cautious. Before any action is taken, we must keep a low profile and follow commands!
Elder Baihu pointed to the land ahead and spoke.
Yes, Elder! the crowd responded in unison.
Old Bai, youre being too cautious! With our power, we could even overthrow a small kingdom! Even Great Xia has only recently advanced to a great kingdom, their strength is limited, what is there to fear? another elder said dismissively.
Thats right, with our force, we could easily wreak havoc in all directions, why be so cautious? Youre being overly careful! the second elder agreed, also unconvinced.
We still cant be careless!
Elder Baihu warned: As far as I know, in the past half a year, Great Xia has won many battles. Their military strength is formidable and should not be underestimated!
Moreover, they have five Innates, one of whom is the Wine Sword Immortal, a presence that even noble families dread! Theres also an Innate-level assassin, extremely fierce in killing!
If were not careful, all our brothers will be left behind here!
Fine, fine, well do it your way. After all, Im only responsible for killing! The two Innates compromised.
Thus, after making the necessary arrangements, they finally stepped into Great Xia.
Within the imperial palace, Lin Beifan narrowed his eyes: Theyre here!
He pulled up the Empire Sandbox, ready to unleash the Return of Ten Thousand Swords and annihilate them all in an instant, but he hesitated.
Its too wasteful to kill them outright; they might still be of some use!
So, he held back some of his power.
Return of Ten Thousand Swords!
Clang clang clang
Sword Qi pierced through time and space, its destination is precise.
