Translator: 549690339
At this moment, a strange scene occurred at the Zhenyuan Escort Agency.
Everyone could see Jiang Yuan constantly conversing with County Honour Li
Hong, but they could not hear a single sound from their conversation.
A look of bewilderment appeared in their eyes.
At this distance, it should have been impossible not to hear their conversation.
The higher a martial artist’s level in the Body Forging Realm, the more sensitive their senses become.
Even if a needle were to fall to the ground, within a few dozen meters, thev should be able to hear it clearly.
Let alone the conversations of two people.
But the scene before them completely shattered their understanding.
It seemed incredibly strange.
After a moment, they saw the conversation between the two came to an end.
A satisfied smile appeared on Li Hong’s face.
Then he took a bunch of white flowers and walked over to the memorial hall, standing next to Jiang Zhenyuan’s coffin.
He looked down at Jiang Zhenyuan with a pallid face.
There was indeed no breath left, and it was clear that he had been dead for several days.
In particular, the saturating red handprint on his chest was particularly eye-catching.
Even if he changed his clothes, the general contour and half of the palm print could still be seen at the collar.
Tablet Palm!
It must be him, the unique skill of the Grand Master of the Black Wind Tribe, no wonder Jiang Zhenyuan was defeated!
Individuals born from a sect, whether in basics or martial arts techniques, far surpassed ordinary martial artists.
He bowed his head and whispered softly, “Rest in peace, Brother Zhenyuan!
You have a good son!”
Then he placed the bouquet of flowers on Jiang Zhenyuan’s body.
Suddenly.
A clamorous noise came from outside.
The next moment, a loud shout rang out, “Jiang Yuan, get out here for me! Your Grandpa Lei is here! Hurry up and hand over three thousand taels of silver! ”
Was that… Lei Zhan’s voice?
A sense of astonishment filled Li Hong’s heart. How dare he come here again?
Is he not afraid of death?
Could he still be unaware of the recent information from Lin’an County?
Right!
That’s probably the case!
Mountain bandits and local ruffians, how could they have such timely information.
With this thought, a playful smile appeared on his face. “Interesting! Really interesting!”
He then left the memorial hall, ready to watch a grand show.
The man in black waiting at the door, immediately followed Li Hong’s steps.
Meanwhile.
Outside the Zhenyuan Escort Agency.
Lei Zhan saw the people at the entrance of the escort agency, among them were some familiar faces.
People who had had dealings with the Black Wind Tribe.
He couldn’t help but feel a bit baffled.
Were these people also here to divide the assets of Zhenyuan Escort Agency?
That being the case, did I arrive too late?
That’s bad, I shouldn’t have agreed to extend this kid’s deadline.
Now grabbing food from a tiger’s mouth would not be easy.
With these thoughts, he could not help but furrow his brow and squint his eyes.
The three subordinates by his side were so scared by the sight that they were trembling.
The feeling that these people gave them, each was extremely terrifying.
Especially when they gathered together, with their energy connected into one, it was even more horrifying.
They were so scared they dared not even breathe out loud.
Just at this moment.
A chubby man with squinting eyes walked up to the entrance of the agency.
This man was indeed the owner of the Civilian Trading, Jia Wandao.
“Brother Lei, your shouting for Jiang Yuan to come out, what important business brings you here?”
Lei Zhan looked at him disdainfully.
“What, the Civilian Trading also wants to taste a piece of the pie? Be careful, you may not get a share, but instead become food for others!”
Jia Wandao was not angry at all, still chuckled and said, “How dare I covet the assets of Zhenyuan Escort Agency, Brother Lei, you hold me in high regard! Brother Lei, did you come today to take three thousand taels of silver?”
“Naturally!” Lei Zhan said, “How you all divide the Zhenyuan Escort Agency is none of my business, but I can’t lack my three thousand taels from the Black Wind Tribe, or else don’t blame my big brother for being ruthless.”
Just as Lei Zhan spoke.
The people at the door of the Zhenyuan Escort Agency quickly moved to the sides.
The next moment, the figure of Jiang Yuan stepped out from among the divided crowd.
Seeing Jiang Yuan step forward, Lei Zhan’s face first showed a moment of joy.
Then his eyebrows furrowed instantly, and the scar on his face looked more ferocious.
“Kid, where’s the money? What, you want to play me?”
Jiang Yuan smiled, “Money? It’s naturally in the courtyard, you can come and get it! ”
Lei Zhan frowned, looked at the people ahead, and his heart filled with some apprehension.
So, he said, “Don’t bother me, just dutifully bring it out.”
Jiang Yuan laughed, “Is the second in command afraid to enter my courtyard with so many important people here?”
“Ridiculous!” Lei Zhan suddenly shouted loudly, “Important people? Am I not an important person? The second master of the mighty Black Wind Tribe, with my big brother returning to his peak, now at the ninth level of the Body Forging Realm, what should I fear?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately strode towards the gate of the Zhenyuan Escort Agency.
Like a dragon walks like a tiger, extremely intimidating.
However, he was in high alert at the moment, with muscles tightly strung, ready to launch a thunderbolt at any time.
The three subordinates behind him saw the second master going forward, so they hurried to follow.
Meanwhile.
Hearing Lei Zhan’s words, everyone’s expression changed dramatically.
The ninth level of Body Forging Realm?
The Grand Master of the Black Wind Tribe actually had the strength of the ninth level of the Body Forging Realm?
According to Lei Zhan, the former chief seemed to have fallen from the ninth level of the Body Forging Realm for some reason, and now has returned to his peak.
The next moment, they quickly made way for Lei Zhan.
Firstly, because the Black Wind Tribe now shouldn’t be taken lightly, the strength of the ninth level of Body Forging Realm was too terrifying. That chief was not an old and frail person, but at his peak, which was extremely fearful!
Secondly, it was because Lei Zhan had a very strong strength, considered to be one of the top in the seventh level of Body Forging Realm.
His natural strength was widely known. Even strong ones from the eighth Body Forging Realm level, the level of nourishing qi, had some difficulty defeating him easily.
Now, could Jiang Yuan have agreed to give him three thousand taels of silver as promised? A conflict must arise between the two later.
With Lei Zhan’s strength, it was enough to give them a clear idea of Jiang Yuan’s capabilities.
Thinking this, how could then anyone dare to take action against Lei Zhan!
Thus they all gave him a wide path to pass.
Seeing this scene before him, Lei Zhan couldn’t help but show a triumphant expression.
As soon as my big brother’s breakthrough news came out, it was different. These so-called rich gentries and high officials are now obediently making way for me.
His heart immediately relaxed.
As he passed by Jiang Yuan.
He glared fiercely at Jiang Yuan and said in a low voice, “Kid, don’t play any tricks!”
After he finished saying that, he strode past the main entrance and walked straight into the courtyard.
The next moment.
The sound of Lei Zhan’s angry shout rang out. “Kid, are you playing with me? Where is the silver!”
“So what if I trick you!”
Jiang Yuan said, then he placed both hands on the gate.
His arms instantly exerted force.
Bang –
With a loud noise, the thousand-pound iron gate shut instantly.
Outside the Escort Agency.
Somebody’s eyes lit up, “Closing the gate! It seems that Jiang Yuan intends to keep Lei Zhan in. Quick, climb up the wall to check his strength.”
The several people next to him left, leaping into the air and landing on top of the wall of Zhenyuan Escort Agency..
