Chapter 20: Kill, None Left
eading martial arts novels and the Four Great Classical Novels since he was a child; otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to Shaolin Temple to study.Although he came from humble beginnings, he has a grand...As night fell, on the outskirts of Yanggu County.
A man with a full yellow beard led over thirty brothers out stealthily from a grove of trees.
The one leading the way is Qingfeng Mountain's head honcho, Jin Mao Hu, Yan Shun!
Yan Shun's head was very tall, and he held a menacingly large sword in his hand.
He gazed intently at the towering city walls of Yanggu County, his eyes flashing with a fierce and predatory light.
At this time, a handsome man beside them whispered, “Big Boss, Yanggu County is right in front of us. The Second Boss has already been tricked by them once. Do you think this time will be another trap”
Yan Shun let out a cold smile. "This time, I've brought all the best fighters from the mountain stronghold. Don't even think about it, not even if those officials in Yanggu County or the nearby garrison troops came, I'd still slaughter them to pieces, robbing them of their gold, silver, treasures and women!"
Yanshun led his men to the city gate. The two soldiers on duty tonight had long since been bribed by the shrewd Wang Po.
They quietly opened a crack in the door and let Yan Shun's group in.
To prevent a similar incident from happening again, Wang Po herself came to greet Yan Shun this time.
After some casual chatter, Wang Po brought Lü Shun to a narrow alley.
"To Yan Shun, he said: 'Tonight, you're dealing with two people. These brothers killed two large monsters on Jingyang Hill the day before yesterday! Tonight, be careful, don't take it lightly!"
Although Yan Shun didn't look down on the so-called brotherhood of martial artists in his heart, he still agreed to a few words out loud.
"Rest assured, Mother. Tonight, I will definitely chop off the heads of those two Wu brothers!"
"But before I do that, let me just take a look at the commission first."
Wang Po smiled and said, "I knew you would say that."
He clapped his hands, and from the gloom of the alley four servants emerged carrying two heavy wooden chests.
I opened it and inside was gleaming silver!
"Here are five thousand taels. After you kill the two Wu Chao brothers, there will be another five thousand taels."
A flicker of displeasure crossed Yan Shun's eyes, but he still nodded with a smile.
"Auntie is truly amazing, she handles everything perfectly!"
Brothers, now come with me to kill the two Wu brothers! After it's done, we'll split the money, drink big bowls of alcohol, and eat large pieces of meat!
The bandits were riled up and excited!
Wang Po led a group of people with Yan Shun, sticking to the wall and quietly coming to the foot of Wu Chao's wall.
The Wang Po pointed at the back door of Wu Chao's house: "Go in through this door, and you'll reach Wu Dalang's house. You have to be quick and must kill them before the soldiers arrive!"
Yan Shun nodded and, carrying his knife, dashed toward the back door.
Only to see Yan Shun raise his right foot, aiming to kick the back door!
Suddenly, the back door creaked open.
Yan Shun's foot suddenly hit empty space, and his body leaned forward, losing its balance.
A hand shot out swiftly, seizing Yan Shun's right foot with a vicious tug!
Yan Shun, a sturdy old man, spread his legs wide apart like a dancer in a performance, striking a one-legged horse stance on the steps behind Wu Chao's house.
"Haha!"
The sickening crunch of bone being forcibly ripped apart.
And the sound of Yan Shunzi's grandson's bag being heavily slammed onto the raised threshold was like a knife, piercing through the silent night!
"Oh! My eggs, my eggs!!"
Yan Shun covered his pouch of descendants and rolled on the ground continuously. Wu Chao walked out of the backyard alone.
The White Faced Gentleman saw this and immediately waved his hand: "Brothers, at me!"
Dozens of people immediately surrounded him.
Wu Chao wore a sneer on his face: "What, are you going to outnumber me"
Wu Chao clapped his hands, and suddenly one after another torches were lit, springing to life from the darkness!
In the blink of an eye, over 200 fully armed soldiers swarmed from all directions!
In the distance, there's a line of archers with drawn bows and arrows strung taut!
The golden-furred Tiger Swallowtail quickly scrambled to his feet, retreating to his own ranks. He glared at Wu Chao with fury, roaring, "You treacherous scoundrel, you set an ambush beforehand! If you have the guts, fight me one-on-one and let's see who lives!"
Wu Chao had his hands in his pockets and called out cheerfully to the courtyard, "Little brother, someone wants to have a one-on-one duel with your older brother. What do you think"
"You blind dog, you dare to challenge my brother First taste the fist of Wu Shuo!"
A brawny man jumped high from the front yard. His tall and strong body easily scaled the wall that was over two meters high, "Bang!" He landed heavily on the ground!
Wushuo was unlike Wuchang, not so easy to talk to. The moment he appeared, he brandished his heavy fists and charged at Yanshun. In an instant, Wushuo became like a tiger descending the mountain, charging into the enemy ranks!
Suddenly, people were thrown about like dominoes, as if entering an uninhabited realm!
When Wushuo displayed his formidable power, the white-faced young master brandished a simple sword and charged at Wuchao from the side!
He saw that while Wu Chao was tall, he was also thin, and must be a scholar-type who couldn't even hold a chicken, let alone fight. He just needed to subdue Wu Chao and everything would be fine!
The young master Bai's sword was fast, gleaming with a terrifying light in the fire.
Seeing the simple blade slash down from above, Wu Chao did not retreat but advanced. He slightly shifted his body, dodging the blade while his right hand, like a venomous snake, shot out and bit onto Bai Mian Langjun's wrist, twisting it with all his might!
"Click!"
Bai Mian Langjun's wrist was twisted and broken! With his scream, the simple knife in his hand immediately fell to the ground.
Wu Chao kicked lightly on the blade with his foot, causing the descending sword to bounce back up. Wu Chao grasped the hilt, and his body whirled like a spinning top, flying in circles!
"Whoosh!"
A flash of cold light glinted against the firelight, carving viciously across the white-faced gentleman's neck!
Fresh blood splattered, staining half of Wu Chao's face!
In the flickering firelight, Wu Chao resembled a grim reaper from hell, cold and emotionless!
Wuchou clutched the bloodstained weapon in his hand and roared, "Kill! Leave none alive!"
Arrows fly like shuttles, blades flash!
That Yan Shun was such a remarkable figure in Wang Po's mouth, but in Wu Shu's hands, he couldn't even last ten moves. With a single punch, his skull was shattered, and he died instantly!
Two hundred soldiers, led by the Wu Chao brothers, completely wiped out dozens of bandits from Qingfeng Mountain!
A man rushed over and bowed to Wu Chao: "Report to Commander Wu, all the bandits who caused trouble tonight have been exterminated!"
Wu Chao shook his head: "One more was missed."
No sooner had his words left his lips than a wail from Wang Po echoed from the depths of the alley.nder, rippling through my heart like waves...Shortly after, Bai Sheng arrived at Wu Chao's backyard with several of his men, carrying things and looking very hurried.Soon, Wu Chao set up equipment for...
