Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

The sun rises slowly, and even in this midwinter season, it still makes people who get up in the morning feel a rare warmth.

Ever since the day when the ghost painter Su Wang and the Lin family, who had not appeared for countless years, had a great battle, Kuocheng has spent a rare five days of peace.

Just like the situation in Kuocheng, the temperature has risen slightly every day in the past five days, and even the heavy snow that fell on the day of the battle has melted and dissipated in the past few days.

But although the temperature is slowly rising, the air is getting drier and drier, as if some old people noticed that the weather was so abnormal and might be brewing a bigger blizzard. The leaders of those big forces also seemed to have a premonition of a more tragic fight.

In the past five days, the warriors of the Su Wang and the two families in the entire Kuocheng have been sending people almost day and night to investigate any suspicious places in the city.

Some small and medium-sized forces, especially the families and forces that were very close to the ghost painter in the past, have been in a state of panic in the past few days, as if they were ready to face the disaster at any time and anywhere.

These families and forces knew that the reason why their families and forces survived until now was not because they chose to join the Su Wang family immediately after the war, but because the Su Wang family had no time to care about other things now.

The fight between warriors was a life-and-death struggle, and the fight between families and forces formed by warriors was the most bloody and cruel.

For these families and forces that had joined the ghost painter, it was only a matter of time before they were suppressed, excluded, or even directly wiped out.

Precisely because of this bad premonition, the three well-known medium-sized forces in Kuocheng, Kowloon Gang, Shenghe Chamber of Commerce, and Xuanjiang Gang, have been carefully cooperating with the actions of the Su Wang family in recent days, while not daring to make any unnecessary moves.

The Kowloon Gang is mainly engaged in casino business, because there are Kowloon Gang gambling houses in many cities of the Xuanwu Empire, and a large amount of money is flowing in and out every day. Gradually, the Kowloon Gang has also become an indispensable existence for depositing and withdrawing gold coins using savings cards.

Shenghe Chamber of Commerce mainly transports materials for resale, but what makes it different from other chambers of commerce is that Shenghe Chamber of Commerce secretly trades women and children. This kind of business is naturally dirty and despised by most people, but Shenghe Chamber of Commerce has always made a living and grown from it.

The last Xuanjiang Gang mainly relied on Ye Xuanjiang and several major rivers in the Xuanwu Empire to dominate the waterway.

These three forces are not very popular, but they have been developing to this day, and their own strength is even comparable to that of the Kang family at the beginning. The most important reason is that the supporters behind these three families are the two families of Guihua.

After years of development, these three forces have continued to grow, and even in this Kuo City, they have certain strength and energy. In the previous battle between Guihua and Su Wang, the three forces were not just clowns waving flags and shouting, they were real participants.

But after Guihua was defeated in one battle, the three forces immediately surrendered, not only contributing manpower and effort, but even taking out extremely considerable money and materials. It is said that the three forces have exhausted all their capital in Kuo City.

Faced with the huge amount of money and materials, Su Jian and Wang Xiao could no longer refuse, but then they found that the three gangs could not move for the time being. If these three groups of forces are eliminated, not only will the other families who have joined the army be in danger, but it may even cause people to become disunited, turning the original help into resistance.

Faced with this situation, the Su Wang family had to retain these three forces, and at the same time they were also careful to guard against these three groups.

Fortunately, these three groups of people have shown their due loyalty. Whether it is to attack the ghost painter's mansion or even to encircle and suppress the ghost painter's other vassal families, the three groups of forces have charged forward, and they are determined to follow the Su Wang family.

The search and elimination of the ghost painter has not stopped for five days. The main forces of the ghost painter and the two families have not been found, but some vassal families and forces have been found.

Such families and forces are originally separated from the ghost painter, just like the Mu family in the Lin family. Such forces and families, of course, the Su Wang family will not allow them to surrender, and they will only be killed with a steel knife.

It seems that only this constant killing and elimination can make Su Jian, Wang Xiao, Guo Xiao and others feel at ease, but there is still a shadow in their hearts, that shadow comes from the ghost painter, from the reminder and warning of Ikari five days ago.

There is a person who has been busy for the past five days. This person is Zuo Feng, who is aliased as Shu Tianle. Since that day, after resolving the suspicion of Shu Suo and Shu Liao and completely gaining the trust of the chief shopkeeper, Zuo Feng got what he had always dreamed of since he entered the Shu family, freedom.

Since entering the Shu family, Zuo Feng must be very careful in every word and every action, because there are too many eyes watching his every move, openly and secretly.

This forced Zuo Feng to act carefully, and some things could not be done even if he thought of them. But since he gained the trust of the chief shopkeeper, everything is different again, especially since the chief shopkeeper accepted him as his last disciple. Although Zuo Feng did not publicize this matter, the news still spread like wildfire.

Zuo Feng analyzed that the news might have been released by the chief manager himself, with the purpose of keeping Zuo Feng on his side. It can be seen that the chief manager still thinks highly of Zuo Feng.

Such a result is naturally very beneficial to Zuo Feng, and he certainly cannot deny it. In addition, the chief manager thinks highly of him, so the new task was quickly assigned to him.

Except for the first day of these five days, Zuo Feng stayed in the Shu family and did not go out. The next four days were busy leaving early and returning late.

Because he gained the trust of the big shopkeeper, no one else gave Zuo Feng any trouble. Even Rouge looked at Zuo Feng very differently from before.

Early in the morning, Zuo Feng led six people away from the family. The six people behind him were all ordinary in cultivation, and the highest ones were only in the early stages of receiving Qi.

These people followed Zuo Feng. Regardless of whether their cultivation level was lower than Zuo Feng's or those whose cultivation level was higher than Zuo Feng's, no one complained at all, because everyone knew that the young man in front of them had a special identity, the big shopkeeper. The newly recruited disciple.

Although we all belong to the same family and all have the surname "Shu" on their heads, there are also close and distant relatives in the same family.

Everyone knows that the great shopkeeper has the opportunity to join the elders' body. After joining the elders' body, the great shopkeeper will naturally have greater rights, and at the same time, he will need to have his own direct lineage.

The young man in front of him named Shu Tianle is obviously the most important person among the people the big shopkeeper focuses on cultivating. In this way, not only would no one cause trouble for Zuo Feng, there were even some young warriors secretly showing their willingness to attach themselves to Zuo Feng.

These people cannot climb up to a figure like the Big Shopkeeper, so they can only settle for the next best thing and choose to join the Big Shopkeeper's lineage by moving closer to Zuo Feng.

It was in this atmosphere that Zuo Feng's outings went very smoothly in the past few days, and these were also the busiest days since he came to Kuocheng.

Early this morning, Zuo Feng led people to leave the old district in the north of the city in a hurry, avoiding the main road in a roundabout way, and went straight to Anpingju Restaurant, which echoes Zuixiang Tower. There were already martial artists watching from a distance here. He left the three of them behind and left quietly with the other three.

Immediately afterwards, Zuo Feng led people to the vicinity of the Su family's mansion. There was no good surveillance location here, so Zuo Feng arranged people at the front door, back door, and side door areas on both sides to monitor all entry and exit of the Su family's mansion.

After arranging these, Zuo Feng left alone without anyone else asking a question. In the past, Zuo Feng would never have dared to leave so boldly without making any explanation.

Now that Zuo Feng has made it clear that he is "lazy" alone, those who know about it are not only not dissatisfied at all, but are actually very happy. Because this shows Zuo Feng's trust in him, they are not happy to cover up Zuo Feng's family.

Just like the previous few days, Zuo Feng quietly came to a courtyard wall northwest of Su's house. He knocked lightly on the wall three times. After there was a response from the wall, he turned over and crossed the wall. .

Ikari had been waiting inside the wall for a long time. When she saw Zuo Feng appear, she couldn't wait to step forward and said, "Your Majesty, City Lord, Tang Bin is still in a coma."

In the past few days, Ikari would wait here early every day, and the first words she said almost never changed. Zuo Feng also knew that she was concerned about Tang Bin's safety, so he could only say a few words of comfort.

Just like what Zuo Feng said after the treatment that day, Zuo Feng has done everything he can do. The next step depends on Tang Bin's luck and willpower. Outsiders can no longer help him.

Ikari also knows this in her heart. Only by asking here every day can she feel a little more at ease.

The two of them didn't say much after meeting, and walked directly towards a garden inside the Su family. All the warriors I saw along the way seemed to be missing the two of them.

This is the inner residence of the Su family. Not to mention the Wang family and the Guo family, the city lord's palace, only a small number of people from the Su family are qualified to appear here.

Soon Zuo Feng and the two arrived at a group of rockeries, and they could hear crisp collisions and low knocking sounds from a distance. Because there is a rockery blocking it, it is really difficult to hear clearly unless you are close.

Seeing the fine holes naturally formed on the rockery, Zuo Feng couldn't help but smile and thought to himself, 'This is indeed a good place to build in secret, but we need to hurry up. ’

There was originally a pool inside the rockery, which should have been completely frozen in the middle of winter. However, if you look closely, you will find that both the water and the ice have long since disappeared, leaving only the deep pit that was originally used to store water.

At this moment, more than a dozen people were busy in the pit. Some were pounding a piece of metal next to a fire, and some were carefully placing large pieces of ore in specific positions at the bottom of the pit.

Seeing this busy scene, a rare smile appeared on Zuo Feng's face.
