Chapter 982: Chapter 982: A Matter of Life and Death

Just as Xu Nian left Slaughter Star and was rushing towards Silver Wolf Star where the Heavenly Court Gang was located.

Inside the grand hall on Silver Wolf Star, there was quite a gathering of people at this moment.

The atmosphere was exceptionally heavy.

"Vice Gang Leader, when will the Gang Leader return? If he doesn’t come back soon, our Heavenly Court Gang is really doomed." Lin Qiang said solemnly, looking at Xuanyuan Qingling who was seated in the vice leader’s seat.

During this period, under Xuanyuan Qingling’s leadership, the Heavenly Court Gang had undergone rapid expansion.

They had annexed three medium-sized gangs in succession.

They had gathered a total of eighteen metal veins in their hands.

Among them, eight were Xuan Gold Energy Metals, and there was even a vein of Red Gold Energy Metal.

They even obtained a mining Token of Red Gold Energy Metal from the hand of one of the gang leaders.

The entire Heavenly Court Gang had reached a terrifying scale of a hundred thousand members.

However, good times didn’t last long, as the Heavenly Court Gang was soon targeted by a large force.

The leader of the Giant Crocodile Gang was an Early Stage Earth Immortal powerhouse.

This fellow not only robbed their Red Gold Energy Metal Vein but also killed two of their Heavenly Phenomenon Peak level members in the Heavenly Court Gang.

Lan Qi and Tie Chui were both seriously injured.

If not for Xuanyuan Qingling desperately battling the leader of the Giant Crocodile Gang with a secret technique, the Heavenly Court Gang might have fallen.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Qingling sat on the high platform, her face pale.

Due to using the secret technique, she seemed to be in a state of fluctuating breath, and her injuries were not healed.

In the past month or so, she had made some breakthroughs.

Her cultivation had once again broken through from Early-stage Tribulation Crossing to Middle Stage Tribulation Crossing.

Her combat power was comparable to a Late Stage Tribulation Crossing expert.

This was also why she could sweep through the three gangs.

But despite this, she was still vastly outmatched against the Earth Immortal Realm.

In her current state, she was absolutely unable to cast the second secret technique.

The opponent wasn’t seriously injured and would sooner or later come knocking again.

By that time, the entire Heavenly Court Gang would completely fall.

If she died, it didn’t matter, but Xu Nian entrusted the Heavenly Court Gang to her before he left.

If she really lost it in her hands, she wouldn’t be able to face Xu Nian.

Besides, that Giant Crocodile Gang Leader even put out word that she must marry him, otherwise, he’d slaughter the entire Heavenly Court Gang.

If she were to die, a hundred thousand people would accompany her in death.

This was something Xuanyuan Qingling didn’t want to see.

But to have her marry that Giant Crocodile Gang Leader was worse than death.

"Vice Gang Leader, let’s fight him, our Heavenly Court Gang people have only the fate to die in battle and never to surrender." Tie Chui snorted coldly.

After speaking, he gave Lin Qiang a sidelong glance.

"Did I say surrender? I just hope that the Gang Leader could return, with the Heavenly Court Gang’s life and death at stake, how can the Gang Leader remain uninvolved?" Lin Qiang said angrily, seeing Tie Chui’s glance.

"I think you’re just scared. What does it matter if the Gang Leader is here or not? If you ask me, we should all go at once. Even if we die, we won’t let him get his way." Zhao An also said angrily.

"You’re unreasonable." Lin Qiang snorted coldly.

Zhao An and Tie Chui looked at him with disdain.

They actually knew in their hearts that it was hard for the Heavenly Court Gang to survive this calamity.

The opponent was, after all, an Earth Immortal level powerhouse, even if Xu Nian was strong, it’s impossible for him to have Earth Immortal level strength.

So deep down, they didn’t really want Xu Nian to come back.

After all, if Xu Nian returned, it was very likely another life would be lost.

They believed that with the Gang Leader’s talent, he would surely avenge them in the future.

So they were so unkind to Lin Qiang.

"Vice Gang Leader, at this life and death moment, do you think we should inform the Gang Leader to come back?" Lin Qiang ignored Zhao An and Tie Chui and turned to Xuanyuan Qingling.

"Guardian Lin, the Gang Leader is in secluded cultivation; it’s best not to disturb him." Xuanyuan Qingling shook her head.

"But..." Lin Qiang was stunned, about to speak again, but was interrupted by Xuanyuan Qingling.

"Don’t mention this again, even if the Gang Leader comes back now, it’s too late. What we need to do now is to deal with the Giant Crocodile Gang’s attack." Xuanyuan Qingling said firmly.

"Resist the attack? How do we resist?" Everyone around sighed.

Considering their side, with Lan Qi and Lin Qiang who had just broken through to the Tribulation Crossing stage, they had at most only three Tribulation Crossing stage.

The opponent had as many as seven Tribulation Crossing stage experts, and their Gang Leader was an Earth Immortal Realm.

With such a disparity in strength, how could they fight?

Most importantly, Xuanyuan Qingling was still injured.

"This is bad, this is bad, Vice Gang Leader, the Giant Crocodile Gang is here again." At this moment, a guard rushed in from outside the hall, shouting anxiously.

Everyone in the hall wore solemn expressions.

Came so quickly?

It had scarcely been three days; how could the Giant Crocodile Gang be here so soon?

"How many people came?" Xuanyuan Qingling asked hurriedly.

"Many, they’ve come with three medium-sized warships and a hundred small ones," the guard quickly replied.

Everyone around heard this, and their pupils shrank.

A medium-sized warship could hold up to three thousand people; three medium warships meant nearly ten thousand.

A hundred small ships, each accommodating nearly a hundred people, was also ten thousand.

Altogether, a full twenty thousand people.

"With so many coming, it seems the Giant Crocodile Gang is determined to swallow our Heavenly Court Gang completely!" Wu Gang said with a gloomy face.

Everyone in the hall looked serious.

This was not good news for them.

If they came with fewer people, they could still use a manpower strategy to drive them away.

But now, with so many coming.

Their numerical advantage was not so obvious.

"No matter how many came, damn it, if you want to destroy my Heavenly Court Gang, first ask me, Tie Chui," Tie Chui roared furiously.

Everyone around looked at Xuanyuan Qingling.

"Go, gather all the brothers, prepare to face the enemy. Even if our entire Heavenly Court Gang dies in battle, we will never surrender." Xuanyuan Qingling’s eyes were fierce, her fists clenched.

"Yes!"

The guard immediately took the order and walked out of the hall.

Everyone else was full of fighting spirit.

To swallow the Heavenly Court Gang wasn’t going to be as easy.

"Let’s go!" A flash of pain crossed Xuanyuan Qingling’s pale face, and then she walked out of the hall.

Wu Gang and others immediately followed, with the conviction of facing death.

They all knew that after this battle, they might very well turn into dry bones.

But even so, they did not regret.

...

At this moment above Silver Wolf Star.

Three massive metal structures were suspended.

And around them were a hundred small metal objects, encircling the entire Heavenly Court Gang’s grand hall.

On these metal objects was a fierce crocodile insignia.

Yes, these were indeed the Giant Crocodile Gang’s warships.

And at this moment, on the central warship, stood three men.

Two of them were wearing fluttering clothes and had an extraordinary aura.

At a glance, one could tell they were Tribulation Crossing Peak level masters.

At the moment, their expressions as they looked at the grand hall below were full of disdain.

As for the leading man, he had an enormous physique, a hulking muscular frame, and a ferocious face.

He looked particularly menacing.

But his presence was the strongest among the group.

He was the Giant Crocodile Gang Leader — Lin E!

He was also the only Earth Immortal Realm expert in the Giant Crocodile Gang.
