Chapter 4

Outside the Drunken Moon Tower, Su Xin looked at the intricately carved and gilded building, marveling at its opulence.

Compared to the slums of Changyue Fang, this place seemed like another world entirely.

"Stop right there! This place has been reserved by our Flying Eagle Gang, go play somewhere else." Seeing Su Xin about to enter the Drunken Moon Tower, a young gang member quickly stepped in front of him.

Su Xin said, "I'm here to see Liu Sandao."

"Bold! Do you think you can just call Third Brother's name casually?"

The gang member scolded, but then his cold sweat started to flow.

Su Xin's ridiculous iron strip sword had somehow already reached his neck!

"Can I go in now?"

The gang member quickly nodded, afraid that Su Xin might accidentally slit his throat.

Slowly retracting his sword, Su Xin said calmly, "Be a bit more low-key. You're just a small leader, why do you have so many bad habits, putting on such a grand show to scare who?"

Entering the Drunken Moon Tower, the grandeur Liu Sandao had arranged was even greater than expected.

After becoming a small leader, Liu Sandao had gathered sixty to seventy gang members, all of whom were now gathered in the Drunken Moon Tower, eyeing Su Xin with hostility.

"Tsk tsk, Liu Sandao, it seems you're doing quite well in this position, very impressive."

The Flying Eagle Gang members involuntarily looked at Liu Sandao.

Everyone had heard about how he betrayed his brothers to become a small leader. Now that the aggrieved party had come to confront him, they wanted to see what Liu Sandao would say.

After all, in the world of gangs, the most important thing was righteousness.

Liu Sandao's actions were highly despised by everyone.

However, the crowd clearly underestimated Liu Sandao's shamelessness.

Facing Su Xin's questioning, he said matter-of-factly, "Su Xin, don't blame me. This position is more suitable for me than you. You are young and cannot command respect, while I have been in the Flying Eagle Gang for over ten years and have countless brothers under me.

Moreover, I have been planning for this position for a long time. You want to take it away just like that? Don't blame me for being ruthless! Gang rules? Just a way to fool children!"

Chen Dao, who was standing behind Liu Sandao, said lazily, "Just kill him, why waste words?"

"Brother Chen, should I let my men test him first before you step in?" Liu Sandao asked in a low voice.

"Test him? If it weren't for the thousand taels of silver, I would already be ashamed to deal with a young man. If I use a tag team, where would I put my face? Do you think I'm like you, Liu Sandao, who can even lose my face?"

Chen Dao's words made Liu Sandao's face turn red and white, but he didn't dare to say more.

"Boy, don't blame me for your death. I'm just doing what I'm paid to do. Blame your bad luck for meeting me."

Chen Dao stood up, stretched his hands, and his iron palms gleamed black in the lamplight.

"Is that so? But I feel that the one with bad luck is you."

A smile appeared on Su Xin's lips, but in the next moment, his sword had already been thrust out!

The rusty iron strip sword was thrust out at an incredibly fast speed and at a deceptively tricky angle, making Chen Dao shudder.

Having seen the injuries of the fifth brother, he thought he understood Su Xin's strength. But as Su Xin's sword was thrust out, Chen Dao realized he had severely underestimated him!

At the critical moment, Chen Dao's years of martial arts training and combat instincts played a crucial role.

Just as Su Xin's sword was about to pierce his neck, Chen Dao's right foot suddenly sank into the ground, cracking the stone floor, causing his body to tilt to the right, and the sword blade passed by his neck.

With a "clang," Su Xin's sword was firmly grasped in Chen Dao's hands.

His hands instantly turned black, emitting a metallic sheen.

The Iron Sand Palm, when practiced to its peak, could shatter gold and stone. An iron strip sword couldn't hurt him.

Chen Dao took a deep breath and a smile appeared on his lips, "What a fast and venomous sword! But your strength is still too... uh!"

He didn't finish his sentence, as his throat had already been pierced by Su Xin!

A bamboo chopstick was stuck in Chen Dao's throat, a common bamboo chopstick that Su Xin had taken while eating a small steamed bun.

Jing Wuming's left-handed sword technique was devious and venomous.

But in fact, he was most skilled with his right hand!

Just now, Su Xin used his right hand to insert the chopstick into Chen Dao's throat, and no one in the room even reacted.

In everyone's common sense, a swordsman who practiced left-handed sword techniques would not practice right-handed ones, but Jing Wuming was an exception, and so was Su Xin, who had learned his sword techniques.

Liu Sandao looked at Su Xin in disbelief.

Chen Dao was actually dead? Chen Dao, whose strength far exceeded that of a typical small leader, was killed by Su Xin in just two moves?

Seeing Su Xin walking towards him, Liu Sandao immediately threw a gang member at Su Xin and turned to run.

The gang member was startled, and by the time he reacted, he had already been pushed in front of Su Xin!

Liu Sandao's actions made the gang member curse in his heart, but he could only watch as he collided with Su Xin, the killer.

"At critical moments, betraying your own brothers, Liu Sandao, you are indeed good at this."

Su Xin took a step forward, moving incredibly fast, and instantly dodged the gang member, thrusting his sword and pinning Liu Sandao to the ground.

Although he had only a trace of internal energy, his strength and speed had increased by more than ten percent. For Liu Sandao to try to escape in front of him was simply courting death.

Slowly walking up to Liu Sandao, Su Xin pulled out his sword and turned to the crowd, "Liu Sandao is dead. This place is now under my control. Who agrees, who disagrees?"

Seeing Su Xin's gaze, the many Flying Eagle Gang members present felt a chill run down their spines.

"Su Xin! How dare you! Chen Dao is the adopted son of Tiger San, and Third Brother is the leader appointed by the boss. You dare to kill them in public, completely disregarding the gang rules! Just wait for your punishment!" A muscular man stepped out and scolded Su Xin.

Although he spoke with a sense of righteousness, his legs were still trembling, trying to scare Su Xin with the gang rules.

"That's right! Even if Third Brother really did something wrong, it should be handled according to the gang rules. When did it become your right to take action, Su Xin?"

"You even killed Tiger San's adopted son, Chen Dao. You'll be dead by tomorrow!"

Two more people stepped out, and for a moment, they actually had a somewhat righteous air.

"It's you, Sun Lao Da. It seems you five brothers are really close to Liu Sandao. Fine, today you will join him in the afterlife!"

Su Xin's sword thrust out again, the sword's edge slicing through Sun Lao Da's throat, splattering a trail of blood.

The other two screamed and immediately ran towards the door.

Su Xin moved lightly but with great strides, catching up to them in just two or three steps, and killed them both with a single sword thrust each.

They had originally sworn allegiance to Liu Sandao, and now four of them had been killed by Su Xin, leaving only the fourth brother, who had brought the body of the fifth brother to report.

Just now, he was the only one who didn't dare to contradict Su Xin, as he had already been terrified by the sword that killed the fifth brother!

Seeing Su Xin's gaze, the fourth brother fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face, wailing, "Lord Su Xin, I know I was wrong! I really know I was wrong! Betraying you was decided by Sun Lao Da and Liu Sandao, I was forced to do it! They are all dead now, please spare me!"

"Ah, one must be righteous. If you say this, your four sworn brothers will be very sad. You should go down and join them."

The iron strip sword thrust out, and the fourth brother couldn't even cover his throat, his eyes filled with terror as he slowly fell to the ground.

"Now, is there anyone who opposes?" Su Xin withdrew his sword, a faint smile on his lips.

The sixty or so gang members shuddered and quickly said in unison, "Greetings, Lord Su!"

Killing wasn't scary; they had all shed blood before. What they feared was Su Xin's madness!

He dared to kill Liu Sandao and Chen Dao, the adopted son of Tiger San.

He even killed the five brothers, and even the fourth brother who begged for mercy, killing them as easily as chickens!

In the eyes of these gang members, this man was a madman! A madman with no scruples!

"Ding! Host successfully killed Liu Sandao, task completion 50%, please continue to work hard." The system's voice echoed in Su Xin's mind.

Su Xin was taken aback, "I've already killed Liu Sandao. Even if the gang members here don't respect me, they now obey me. Why isn't the task considered complete?"

The system replied, "The task details are to kill Liu Sandao and become a small leader of the Flying Eagle Gang. Your current position is obtained through killing and has not been recognized by the higher-ups of the Flying Eagle Gang, so it is not legal and does not count as completing the task."

Su Xin suddenly felt a toothache. This task sounded simple, but the difficulty was here.

"Get a few people to clean up the bodies here." Su Xin sat down in the position previously occupied by Liu Sandao.

A gang member quickly stepped forward and scolded, "What are you all looking at? Didn't you hear Lord Su's order? Clean up the bodies and wipe the blood off the floor!"

This gang member looked to be around thirty, with a cunning face, and was the one Liu Sandao had thrown out to block Qin Yu earlier.

Su Xin looked at him with interest.

He had just killed several people, and now these Flying Eagle Gang members were all afraid of him, yet this man dared to come forward to curry favor.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Huang Bingcheng. To be honest, I've long been dissatisfied with Liu Sandao's behavior. He betrayed his brothers to get his position and even turned on his own men at critical moments. What a scoundrel!" Huang Bingcheng spat at Liu Sandao's corpse, looking bitter and resentful.

Su Xin waved his hand casually, "Alright, when I'm not around, these gang members will be under your control."

Hearing Su Xin's words, Huang Bingcheng was overjoyed, knowing he had made the right bet!

In the past, when Liu Sandao was in charge, he only trusted the five brothers, and no one else had any power.

Now that Su Xin was in charge, he had no one to help manage his subordinates, and Huang Bingcheng, being the first to come forward, was naturally accepted.

After cleaning up the bodies, Huang Bingcheng eagerly approached Su Xin, a fawning smile on his face, "Lord, do you have any other orders?"

"How much silver
