I will settle scores and use violence to shatter the chaos of this world.

Chapter 14: Another advancement! Second level of Inner Strength!

Inside the spacious room.

With a loud crash, a beautiful tea set was smashed to pieces.

"This little brat is out of control! I can't control him anymore!"

Zuo Qiuyun flew into a rage.

When asked to apologize, he not only refused, but also beat up Liu Zifeng, Zhou Yang, and the other two!

Does this guy even respect me?

"Alright, Left Protector, you no longer need to put on an act under my nose. Who are you putting on this for?"

Beside him stood Xiang Tao, the Right Protector, dressed in black robes, his tone indifferent and unconcerned.

Behind him.

It was Elder Fang Tingyun with a gloomy face, and Liu Zifeng, Zhou Yang, and Zhao Hai, who had just been seriously injured.

The three were barely breathing and looked terrible. If they hadn't been discovered in time, they would still be unconscious on the ground.

Even if they are rescued, their severe injuries will take at least three to five months to heal.

"Left Protector, your disciple is ruthless, sinister, and vicious. He shows no regard for fraternity when he strikes, which makes me highly suspicious. Is he acting under the influence of someone?"

Right Protector Xiang Tao's eyes were indifferent as he swept his gaze toward Zuo Qiuyun, and he said coldly, "I heard that someone openly declared in the courtyard that they would support Chen Xuan and let him do as he pleases!"

"you!"

Zuo Qiuyun's expression changed drastically.

He didn't expect that Xiang Tao would also hear about these words.

"That's right. If you don't give us an explanation for this, don't blame us for taking it to the gang leader and letting him judge the matter for us!"

Fang Tingyun also looked at Zuo Qiuyun with a cold expression.

"Enough, Xiang Tao, don't think I don't know what you're up to!"

Zuo Qiuyun spoke coldly, "Speak, what do you want?"

"Great! I've heard you obtained three Creation Pills; I want one."

Xiang Tao said calmly.

"Creation Pill?"

Zuo Qiuyun's expression changed drastically, and she decisively waved her hand, saying, "That's impossible!"

"impossible?"

Xiang Tao's expression darkened slightly. He said, "Then don't blame me for reporting this to the gang leader. If the gang leader gets angry, you'll be in deep trouble!"

"Threatening me?"

Zuo Qiuyun sneered, saying, "Chen Xuan is nothing to me. He's just someone I casually summoned. Who does he think he is? Go ahead and sue me if you want!"

With a wave of his sleeve, he decided to completely abandon Chen Xuan.

"We'll see!"

Xiang Tao gave a cold snort, then turned and left.

Fang Tingyun and the others followed behind with cold smiles on their faces.

"Left Protector, are you really going to abandon Chen Xuan?"

Ge Xuan's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but ask.

"At this point, do you think I can still protect him? This little beast completely ignored my words. Since he refuses to bow his head, then let him bear the Right Protector's wrath alone. He'll regret it then!"

Zuo Qiuyun's tone was icy.

He turned and left.

...

Outside the main hall.

The Right Protector and his entourage left in a hurry.

Fang Tingyun frowned, glanced back again, and said, "Right Protector, that old man is as decisive as ever, abandoning Chen Xuan immediately. It seems we'll need to wait and see before we bring him down!"

"This is nothing. Zuo Qiuyun is cunning and ruthless. I expected him to be like this."

Xiang Tao spoke indifferently, waving his hand lightly, and said, "The reason I'm forcing him is simply to make him voluntarily abandon his subordinates. The more subordinates he abandons, the more disheartened his followers will become. Sooner or later, we won't even need to lift a finger; he'll fall on his own!"

Fang Tingyun nodded slightly and asked, "What about Chen Xuan?"

Xiang Tao paused, looked at Fang Tingyun, then at Liu Zifeng, Zhou Yang, and the other two who were seriously injured and looked humiliated, and said, "Isn't he going to the Qingshui branch? Find someone to tell Su Qingliu over there that, given Su Qingliu's personality, he won't let him get away with it. Once Su Qingliu leaves, anyone can kill him without a sound."

"Su Qingliu?"

"This genius girl?"

"The gang leader's only female disciple?"

The person next to him had a flash of insight.

it is good!

Su Qingliu was always arrogant and aloof, and he specialized in dealing with all troublemakers.

Su Qingliu was in charge of the early stages of the development of the Qingshui Rudder.

Now that Chen Xuan has passed away, given Su Qingliu's personality, once she learns of Chen Xuan's deeds, she will definitely not give him a kind look.

The two sides are very likely to fight at that time.

...

Inside the carriage heading to Shimizu-go.

Chen Xuan sat quietly and looked at the panel in front of him again.

I never expected that just going out for a short while would result in another 1200 points of happiness.

What are you waiting for?

Of course, it's all in.

"Excitement level, increases Thunder Step!"

Chen Xuan silently recited in his heart.

[Ding! You have consumed 900 points of Joy to begin refining the Thunder Step. Your Thunder Step is starting to improve again...]

[Congratulations, host! You have achieved the perfected Thunder Step! Your cultivation level has increased to: Second Level of Dark Force!]

A series of sounds rang out.

boom!

His entire body trembled and crackled, as powerful internal energy surged within him, like galloping horses and surging waves, endlessly circulating through his limbs and bones.

Its strength has increased significantly compared to before.

"This is already the second level of internal strength? It's a pity, all my martial arts skills are already perfected. I should have learned more martial arts techniques back in the Scripture Pavilion!"

Chen Xuan frowned.

Although the martial arts on the first three floors of the Sutra Repository are of a lower level, they are still better than nothing.

I don't know if they sell them at the dock.

Squeak! Squeak...

His carriage moved step by step toward the Qingshui branch.

From a distance, one could smell a strong fishy odor coming from ahead, accompanied by shouts from fishermen, the cracking of whips, and curses.

"Chief Chen, we've arrived."

The coachman stopped the carriage.

Chen Xuan immediately rolled down the car window and peered outside.

Countless workers were busy at work in front of the muddy road.

Further ahead lies an endless river, its surface dotted with sails, laden with cargo, and countless large ships docked here.

Several members of the Red Sand Gang stood respectfully in front of the carriage, their faces beaming with smiles.

"This humble servant, Jia Gui, greets Chief Chen!"

The leader of the gang was a skinny, bony figure with a wide smile on his face. He looked like a daisy, his body so thin that a gust of wind could blow him away.

"Jia Gui?"

Chen Xuan looked surprised as he stepped down from the carriage.

You know what?

They really do look alike!

"Where is our branch headquarters? Take me there!"

Chen Xuan said.

"Yes, please come this way!"

Jia Gui immediately smiled and bent down to lead the way.

"By the way, Captain Chen, your name has already spread throughout the docks these past two days."

Jia Gui suddenly whispered, "Everyone knows your profound strength, but if you meet Chief Su later, it's best not to confront her directly. Just be patient, and once she's transferred back to headquarters, everything will be fine."

"Oh?"

Chen Xuan raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is she fierce?"

When he arrived, he already knew that the Clear Water Sheriff was headed by a woman named Su Qingliu.

I came here today precisely to take over her job.

"No, that's not it."

Jia Gui hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "This Chief Su is aloof and takes the gang rules very seriously. She can't tolerate any wrongdoing and will take action against anyone who violates them... Moreover, Chief Su is incredibly powerful and is the gang leader's personal disciple. If you back down, nothing will happen."

Based on what Chen Xuan had done within the gang, he was 100% certain that Su Qingliu would definitely give Chen Xuan a warning.

If Chen Xuan were to back down, Su Qingliu would at most reprimand him a couple of times before the matter was over.

But if Chen Xuan doesn't back down, given Su Qingliu's personality, he will definitely take action on the spot.

He dared not even imagine what would happen then.

"understood."

Chen Xuan nodded and smiled, "Thank you for relaying the message! May I ask about her strength?"

"Fourth level of hidden strength."

Jia Gui whispered.

"I see."

Chen Xuan spoke in a flat tone.

As the leader's disciple, I have to give him some face.

But if the other party insists on taking advantage of your kindness...

He would also tell the other party.

The world is cruel!
