Zhang San, please behave yourself!
Chapter 201 - 195: We Represent Justice!

Chapter 201: Chapter 195: We Represent Justice!

"Breaking the law? We are martial artists, what do we have to fear from the law?"

"Kid, do you really think the Kaihuang Law will protect you in this desolate wilderness?"

"Dare to obstruct the Dragon Slaying Alliance, and no matter who it is, they will be crushed into dust."

Zhang San furrowed his brow, listening to these villainous yet lackluster lines devoid of any substance.

After several people flaunted their arrogance, Zhang San finally spoke slowly.

"Let’s not go too far."

Upon hearing this, several members of the Dragon Slaying Alliance burst into loud laughter.

This was their first time encountering such a plea for mercy.

Little did they know, Zhang San’s words were not meant for them but for those beside him.

Upon hearing Zhang San’s words, Big Head Wang and Ximen Jinxing immediately took action.

Meanwhile, Wen Ruchu’s gaze turned icy, filled with a murderous intent.

So Zhang San wants to take prisoners alive, right?

Then I will simply kill all those people.

The next moment, Wen Ruchu fiercely attacked; her Fire Movement power operated at its utmost, condensing a long sword of Fire Movement force in her palm.

With a thrust of the sword, she pierced through a martial artist’s throat with a "pu" sound.

Then, with a backhand strike, she perfectly split another martial artist from head to the third limb.

Finally, with a swift turn, she swept her sword horizontally.

The scorching Sword Qi was like the deadliest heat wave from the hottest southern island, instantly devouring the lives of three who were just arrogantly triumphant.

The remaining three members of the Dragon Slaying Alliance, witnessing this scene, lost all courage to retaliate and thudded to their knees, immediately surrendering.

Wen Ruchu wanted to continue her assault but did not expect the opponents’ kneeling motion to be so swift and skilled.

Attacking further at this point would only make it easy for others to criticize her actions.

Seeing Zhang San’s cold gaze toward her, she could only give an awkward smile and explain, "I didn’t expect them to be so weak that a random stroke of my sword would kill three of them."

The lead martial artist among them, already trembling with fear from seeing the three who had just been slain by a single sword strike, upon hearing this statement, felt as if a sharp blade was hanging over his own neck, ready to fall at any moment.

"You all... want to... ask something... just say... I... guarantee..."

Zhang San sneered inwardly, this was exactly the effect he had desired.

Wen Ruchu came to kill, then he would step forward and play the good guy.

Perfect!

"Speak clearly now, what exactly is this Dragon Slaying Alliance about? All three of you can talk, whoever provides the most complete and valuable information will get to live."

Upon hearing this, the team leader became even more nervous.

He was already stammering after kneeling down, and now hearing that he could save his life by telling the truth, but seeming like only one among them could survive, he became even more nervous.

"I... I... I... I know..."

"I know I’ll speak; the Dragon Slaying Alliance has my elder brother! Originally, the Dragon Serpent Gang organized an auction, made it mysterious and not open to outsiders. It’s said there must be treasures involved, so they were invited and had their money prepared..."

Just then, a henchman wearing a hat and keeping his head down unexpectedly started to speak, and surprisingly his words even rhymed a bit.

"A total of twenty-eight forces attended, all very powerful, could kill with their glance, unfortunately, don’t know what happened, but in the end, only four remained."

"The remaining twenty-four families refused to participate, after all, their families also need to eat, and dying for no reason at all would be a terrible account, what would happen if it’s not counted against Dragon Serpent Gang?"

Zhang San looked at the man wearing a hat, somewhat dumbstruck.

"So, is the Dragon Slaying Alliance made up of these twenty-four families who want revenge against the Dragon Serpent Gang?"

"No... no... no..." The leader still wanted to say something more.

But the man wearing the hat now also wanted a chance to live, and unfortunately, the other side was quite articulate.

"It’s not just the twenty-four vengeful families, but also various oddities from Chuan-Yu Road claiming to represent justice, when in fact they just want to loot the Dragon Serpent Gang! So, the more people gathered, the more it felt like family; don’t talk about anything else, the total number was unknown because it was too many, anyway, everything was blamed on Dragon Serpent Gang!"

Zhang San nodded slightly, since the Dragon Serpent Gang had had recent internal strife, it was impossible to completely block the news.

"Haven’t you ever thought that it might have been the four surviving families who killed the people from these twenty-four families?"

Zhang San continued to ask.

"The old Sect Master of Pure Stream Sword Sect is finished, but a new Sect Master has appeared, both strong in the Purple Mansion Realm, wanting revenge but finding it difficult."

"Mysterious Soldiers Sect is an easier target, but Town Martial Office intervened directly causing their downfall. Gluttonous Mountain, on the other hand, has few disciples and its location is unknown, so no search is possible."

"Corpse Nether Sect, being a Sect of the Demon Path, is neither ghost nor human and even cremates corpses, so although we wanted to ally with them, they wouldn’t agree, and in the end, we acted independently and parted ways."

Zhang San understood that the people in these twenty-four families likely knew who their real enemies were.

The enemies were either too formidable to provoke, or had already been destroyed by the Town Martial Office, or their whereabouts were unknown, or they felt too weak to fight and wanted to collaborate, but no one cared to cooperate with them.

And the reason they ultimately chose to take revenge on the Dragon Serpent Gang was simply because the Dragon Serpent Gang was currently leaderless and riddled with internal strife.

What revenge, in the end, it was all about bullying the weak.

But they still had to claim they were seeking revenge, and if they had no personal grudges but still wanted a share, they would claim to represent justice.

Damn, justice never seems to be late!

"Alright, I’ve understood, you three can go back now!"

The kneeling leader never expected that without saying anything, he could actually be released?

Zhang San said coldly, "Actually, we are from the Dragon Serpent Gang, and we already knew about your Dragon Slaying Alliance. We were just the vanguard unit, specially sent to scout and confirm your positions. Along the way, we prepared many surprises for your alliance. Take your time, the road ahead is long."

Having said that, Zhang San waved his hand, and the three men turned and ran.

Watching the backs of the three men, Wen Ruchu said coldly, "Just letting them go like that, aren’t you worried they’ll summon others to come against us?"

Zhang San smiled slightly and said, "Come against us? They will definitely proceed cautiously from now on, always wary of being ambushed by the Dragon Serpent Gang. Where would they find the time to focus on us, mere pawns?"

Having said that, Zhang San turned and did not pursue Lv Dagen further.

After all, he had already marked Lv Dagen, and with Wen Ruchu nearby, it wasn’t convenient to chase Lv Dagen, so this was a good opportunity to return to the Dragon Serpent Gang.

"Back to the Dragon Serpent Gang to report the incoming news from the Dragon Slaying Alliance. After all, the whole Dragon Serpent Gang is in the dark about it. If we don’t tell them, the Dragon Slaying Alliance might show up at their door without them knowing."

Wen Ruchu frowned slightly, puzzled, "If they fight and both suffer, isn’t that to the benefit of the Town Martial Office? Why still warn them?"

Zhang San glanced at Wen Ruchu.

"The purpose of the Town Martial Office’s existence is not to destroy other martial forces but to guide them towards the Righteous Path and prevent large-scale vendettas among the martial forces! Do you really think the Town Martial Office is a butcher?"

Zhang San’s words made Wen Ruchu blush.

Although Wen Ruchu didn’t think Zhang San was right, this paternal lecture clearly made her feel ignorant and embarrassed, especially when she couldn’t even argue, making it even more awkward.

Meanwhile, in the Ghost Domain, Jiang Ziwen looked at Little Fox returning, his eyes filled with fondness.

"Xiang, how did you fare this time?"
