Chapter 189: Chapter 189: Fight Me_1

Lord Long isn’t dead!

It had been mere speculation, but now it had become a reality.

Lord Long had posted a video on the dark web forum.

In the video were Wang Han’s corpse and Lord Long’s declaration of return.

Aside from a somewhat darker complexion, Lord Long seemed to have no other abnormalities.

It was Wang Han who had been wiped out.

The Wang Family of Jiangbei had been completely obliterated.

It was truly a thought-provoking turn of events.

The dark forces within the provincial city began to feel restless and uneasy.

Those who had once sided with Wang Han were living in constant dread.

They took up Wang Han’s cause, murdered their own boss, and then took over his position.

Now, they faced the possibility of Lord Long settling scores after the autumn harvest.

How could they not be nervous?

These people gathered to discuss how to survive this ordeal, yet they couldn’t come to any conclusion.

Ghost Blade was still strong.

It was useless even if Wang Han had killed Tyrant Fist, Xue Ying, and Du She.

A single Ghost Blade could sweep through the entire dark forces of the provincial city.

Lin Chaonan was also somewhat anxious. He and Jiang Hai were currently in control of the Lin Group, and behind them was Xiao Chen.

They were very afraid of Lord Long causing trouble.

After all, Lord Long wasn’t weak either.

And Ghost Blade was even more terrifying.

However, what was strange was that after Lord Long announced his return to the provincial city, he didn’t make any retaliatory moves.

It was as if he was unaware of everything that had happened before.

Only the Long Residence had been swept clean, claiming it was to dispel the bad luck.

Apart from that, nothing noteworthy had happened.

But even so, people were still unable to feel at ease.

With Lord Long’s return, what action would the one from Linhai take?

This was unknown.

Therefore, the people of the provincial city didn’t dare to rush into taking sides. Having learned from their previous mistakes, they were all very cautious now.

Ghost Blade had wiped out Wang Han, and Lord Long had the shadow of an Aristocratic Clan from Capital City behind him.

The one from Linhai had directly slain three of the Jiangbei’s seven eccentrics.

Equally terrifying.

One a new king, the other an old king!

It was truly uncertain who would become the supreme ruler.

Waiting and seeing had become the main theme for the dark forces of both the provincial city and the entire Jiangnan Prefecture.

People waited in trepidation for the start of another fierce battle.

Yet, curiously, the figure from Linhai seemed utterly indifferent to Lord Long’s return.

He spent his days accompanied by nothing but his wife.

As if she was the only person in his world.

But it was at this time that Lord Long did something that astonished numerous people.

He actually called together the major forces of the provincial city, expressing his intention to present himself at Linhai to offer apologies.

This baffled everyone.

No fight, Lord Long was directly conceding.

Wasn’t this too bizarre?

The time was set for three days later.

He let everyone think it over properly, stating each person could bring only one subordinate.

No pressure, those who wanted to go could go, those who didn’t want to could forget it.

"The old man has really aged, gotten scared, can’t cut it anymore, there’s no good days ahead following him!"

Many bosses within Jiangnan Prefecture viewed Lord Long with disdain.

Even with the backing from Capital City, he still needed to apologize to Xiao Chen, which was truly embarrassing.

But Lord Long didn’t care about what these people said.

He had made up his mind.

Once people pass fifty years old, they become more timid, not wanting to die, nor daring to die.

Lord Long was well aware that if he died, his family members probably wouldn’t survive for long either.

While he still had some value to utilize, it would be best to get in touch with Xiao Chen.

It was a gamble.

A gamble on destiny.

He couldn’t afford to lose.

But he had to take the risk.

Of course, before going to Linhai, he sent Ghost Blade there first.

To show his stance.

To barge into that beautiful and peaceful Taoyuan would be to defile the place.

On top of the Xinmeng Group building.

Xiao Chen smoked while he looked at Ghost Blade who had just slain Wang Han without a scratch.

There was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"How about working with me?"

Xiao Chen smiled.

"I appreciate your high regard, but I won’t betray Lord Long."

Ghost Blade shook his head, cold and resolute.

Even though Xiao Chen was strong, it couldn’t sway his will.

"Is that so? But I’m afraid Lord Long doesn’t have much longer to live, yet you are still young."

Xiao Chen said indifferently.

Being smart, Ghost Blade knew what Xiao Chen was alluding to.

Even if Xiao Chen gave the antidote to Lord Long, it wasn’t guaranteed that he could survive this ordeal.

Wang Han’s death.

It was a declaration of war!

Jiangnan Prefecture, especially the provincial city, had become a battlefield.

The forces behind Wang Han would inevitably take action.

It truly wasn’t certain whether Lord Long could make it out alive.

Even if he was cunning, the people from Capital City were no fools.

"As long as he lives, I live!"

Ghost Blade declared.

"What a loyal and devoted man!

Take this then!"

Xiao Chen threw a medicine bottle and said, "Inject it into the muscle, and you’ll recover in a day!"

Ghost Blade held the medicine bottle, somewhat surprised, "Aren’t you afraid that Lord Long will change his mind after he’s detoxified?"

"He won’t."

Xiao Chen shook his head, smiling, "You may go now. In three days, I will host a banquet at Tianbin Hotel in Lord Long’s honor.

I’ll also let you see what a city without the dark world looks like.

How radiant the smiles on people’s faces here can be."

Ghost Blade didn’t leave, still standing there, radiating a strong fighting spirit.

"Fight me!"

Ghost Blade said.

"Do you think that’s necessary?"

Xiao Chen suddenly looked at Ghost Blade.

In that instant, Ghost Blade thought he saw a Demon Shadow emerge behind Xiao Chen.

Fierce and terrifying, with an overwhelming aura.

He stepped back three steps, his legs going weak.

The fighting spirit quickly faded away.

He knew it was murderous intent; there was no Demon Shadow, only Xiao Chen’s murderous aura, which had made him retreat.

A duel?

He suddenly felt ridiculous.

"It was presumptuous of me!"

Ghost Blade wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He had never seen anyone like Xiao Chen before.

Merely with the pressure of his killing intent, Xiao Chen could intimidate him to the point of not daring to strike.

He suddenly thought of Wang Han’s strange behavior.

After his son and brother were killed, Wang Han didn’t even consider revenge.

That must be because Wang Han too had witnessed such terrifying visions.

In front of others, he was the fearsome Ghost Blade, but in front of Xiao Chen, he was nothing more than a little puppy groveling on the ground.

The gap was too vast!

"Farewell!"

Ghost Blade took a deep breath and turned to leave.

Earlier, he had been concerned about whether Lord Long’s decision was right.

But now, he was clear of how perfect a decision Lord Long had made.

One may make enemies with anyone, just not with Xiao Chen.

If Xiao Chen wanted to kill them, it would be as easy as turning his hand, without needing any other tricks.

As Ghost Blade descended the stairs, his legs were still shaking.

A growing fear coursed through him.

If possible, he never wanted to face Xiao Chen in battle for the rest of his life.

That feeling was too terrifying!

Watching Ghost Blade leave, Xiao Chen exhaled a ring of smoke and looked towards the direction of the provincial city, "The shores of Bajiang are gradually heating up."

He smiled, extinguished the cigarette butt,

and placed it in the small pouch he carried with him.

Xiao Chen too left the rooftop.

He liked it here, for he enjoyed the feeling of looking down on everything.

But he also liked Jiang Meng’s office because it was where his most beloved woman was.
