Boom!

Almost no time was left for a reaction, and the elder of the Green Dragon Gang was killed by a giant palm.

This sudden scene shocked everyone. Qingyan's eyes widened; the Second Elder was a genuine king. To kill a king with one palm... Could it be an emperor? Or a venerable?

Looking at the elder's corpse, Chuyan showed no pity. All of this was the Green Dragon Gang's own doing. He had given the Second Elder a chance just now, but the other party did not cherish it, so he no longer wasted words, his gaze shifting to Qingyan.

"Next, it's your turn." Chuyan said coldly. Qingyan fell to his knees with a thud, completely panicked. He never expected that Chuyan would have such a powerful protector behind him. He hurriedly said, "Don't kill me, please, let me live, and I will give you whatever you want."

"I don't dare to take your things; I just want what is mine." Chuyan sneered, and he struck out, slicing Qingyan's throat with a sword. Qingyan's eyes widened, seemingly unable to believe he would die like this. He was still so young, with a bright future ahead of him.

Qingyan was dead, and Muye and the others were also shaken. The Second Elder's attack was truly terrifying, but the person behind Chuyan was even stronger. This made Muye look at Chuyan with deeper meaning, his resolve to follow him even more firm.

"Search their bodies and take everything useful." Chuyan instructed, then turned his gaze to the Fengyuan Fruit.

"This Fengyuan Fruit has excellent effects on cultivation. Taking it directly can increase a cultivator's essence. If a pill master can refine it into Fengyuan Pills, it would be a treasure that Transcendent Realm cultivators dream of." Muye said.

Chuyan nodded. As a pill master, he naturally recognized the Fengyuan Fruit. He calculated the quantity: seventeen in total. They were seven people, so each could get two, with three left over.

"Three left over, how do you think we should divide them?" Chuyan gave each person two and held the remaining three in his hand.

"Xiaolang helped a lot this time. He should get two, and the last one goes to Brother Chu." Qian Dong said.

"Right, if it weren't for Xiaolang's bloodline intimidation, we wouldn't have killed that mammoth so easily." Everyone agreed.

"Since that's the case, let's divide it this way. I'll take one extra. I found twenty-five spirit stones on Qingyan. Each of you gets three, and I'll keep one. That's fair." Chuyan said.

"Brother Chu, you don't need to, you did the most work." Qian Dong said.

Chuyan smiled and shook his head. He didn't care about the credit; this trip was to help everyone find resources. This was a good start, even though they didn't reach Tongtian City, the harvest was still considerable.

In the end, it was all because of Qingyan's greed. If he hadn't wanted to keep everything for himself and had divided it fairly with Chuyan, everyone would have had a good harvest.

After putting away the Fengyuan Fruit, the group prepared to set off. At this moment, Chuyan frowned slightly, then his gaze shifted toward a dense forest. "Who!"

"Come out!" Muye also shouted, his wrist flicking, sending a gust of wind.

"Don't attack, don't attack, let's talk, ha ha." But the next moment, the gust of wind was shattered by a sword beam, and a young man walked out of the forest, smiling. Despite raising his hands, there was no fear in his eyes.

"Fourth layer of the Transcendent Realm!" Ye Xun said solemnly.

"It's a member of the White Tiger Gang." Muye glanced at the young man's clothing, a white robe with a pattern of a white tiger descending a mountain.

Chuyan nodded, showing no fear. The reason was simple: the old demon had already acted once. If this person were to attack, he wouldn't mind letting the old demon kill another person.

"Really didn't expect Qingyan to die so stupidly." The young man looked at Qingyan's body after coming out.

"Do you want to avenge him?" Chuyan asked solemnly.

"Of course not, what do I have to do with him? It's better that he's dead. I wouldn't even urinate on his grave to show respect." The young man waved his hands, looking unruffled, even seeing the Second Elder's corpse didn't make him too nervous, as if he had some backing.

Chuyan narrowed his eyes, suddenly noticing a faint shadow floating behind the young man. Although very weak, it was real, and its power was far stronger than the Second Elder of the Green Dragon Gang.

But Chuyan wasn't afraid, having confidence in the old demon's strength.

"Are you here to抢Fengyuan Fruit?" Chuyan asked again.

"Of course not. The Fengyuan Fruit is good, but what interests me more... is you." The young man pointed at Chuyan, leaving him puzzled.

"If I'm not mistaken, with a protector of Venerable level or higher, you must be Chuyan, the one Hua Tian Sect recruited after the wilderness, right?" The young man revealed Chuyan's identity in one sentence.

Chuyan wasn't surprised; his joining Hua Tian Sect was no secret. He looked at the young man with interest.

"What do you want to say?"

"Hehe, actually nothing much, just want to be friends." The young man paused: "Let me introduce myself. I'm the second young master of the White Tiger Gang, Shao Baiyu. I don't have many hobbies, just like drinking and making friends. I saw you guys and thought I'd make friends with you."

"Of course, as a gesture of goodwill, I can take you to Tongtian City and let you stay at my place. You can walk around freely, with nothing to fear. If the Green Dragon Gang dares to seek revenge, I'll take care of it." Shao Baiyu laughed, making Chuyan and the others frown. Just to make friends? And become enemies with the Green Dragon Gang?

No one believed it, after all, no one was a fool. Many looked at Chuyan. Shao Baiyu's actions were likely due to Chuyan's identity.

"What do you think?" Ye Xun glanced at Chuyan.

Chuyan thought for a moment. He indeed didn't know much about Tongtian City and wasn't sure if the White Tiger Gang was good or bad. However, he liked Shao Baiyu's straightforwardness and, with the old demon's protection, wasn't worried about safety. So he nodded.

"Alright, if that's the case, we'll be a bother." Chuyan smiled and agreed. Shao Baiyu was delighted, rushing forward to put his arm around Chuyan's shoulder. Seeing the odd looks around, he laughed awkwardly: "Uh, ha ha, I got carried away, but don't worry, I only like women, not men."

Chuyan smiled without speaking. The journey ahead would be much easier. The dense forest they were in was not far from Tongtian City, but there was a confusing array outside the city. Without knowing how to break it, they would just keep circling in the same spot.

Of course, no one knew that as soon as they left the forest, several figures rushed over. Seeing the Second Elder and Qingyan's bodies, a middle-aged man was furious.

"Damn it! Who! Who! Find out! I will tear the murderer to pieces!" The man was the leader of the Green Dragon Gang, Qing Yuntian. He never expected his second son to die like this.

"Lord Yuntian, if you want revenge, I can give you a lead." A moment later, a graceful woman walked out.

"Zhu Luan?" Qing Yuntian's eyes turned cold. The woman was the daughter of the Vermilion Bird Gang: "Do you know who killed my son?"

"Lord Yuntian can visit the White Tiger Gang, you might find something useful." Zhu Luan smiled coyly. Qing Yuntian's face darkened, his eyes full of killing intent. He coldly snorted and vanished without another word.

Watching Qing Yuntian's back, a man walked out beside Zhu Luan. The man's strength was also above the king level. He said calmly, "Miss, why didn't you directly tell Qing Yuntian that it was a Hua Tian Sect disciple who killed Qingyan?"

"Would that have any meaning? The four gangs have guarded Tongtian City for a thousand years; it's time for a change. Ha ha, this young man is a good opportunity."

"Miss, are you trying to provoke a war between the Green Dragon Gang and the White Tiger Gang?"

"No, I just want to use his hands to destroy the Green Dragon Gang." Zhu Luan turned and smiled mysteriously into the forest: "Black Tortoise Gang, you really live up to your name, hiding like a turtle."

In the forest, another cold snort was heard, and several figures flashed out. Chuyan and the others never expected that the four gangs had been here all along.

Shao Baiyu didn't lie. After arriving at the White Tiger Gang, they were treated well, given the highest privileges.

Learning that Chuyan and his group were seeking cultivation resources, Shao Baiyu applied to the gang for a thousand first-grade spirit stones and the right to freely enter the martial arts hall, providing Chuyan and the others with resources for cultivation, making their journey much easier.

However, Chuyan knew there was no free lunch. The White Tiger Gang's hospitality wasn't because of Hua Tian Sect, but because of the wilderness. The White Tiger Gang wanted to use his name to establish a deterrent within the gang.

During this time, Qing Yuntian visited the White Tiger Gang several times, but the two gangs didn't directly engage in battle. Shao Baiyu publicly declared that Chuyan was his life-and-death brother, and anyone who dared to touch him would face his wrath.

For a time, the balance of power in Tongtian City was broken. Strangely, as the four gangs engaged in fierce battles, one place remained untouched, extremely safe, with no one daring to cause trouble there.

That was the mysterious force called 'Heaven's Wrath' in the center of Tongtian City. This force seemed to be a taboo in Tongtian City, with no one daring to touch it, not even the four gangs.
