Chapter 100: Mastering Words Before Martial Arts
Everyone in the Green Sand Gang knew that when the imperial grain was hijacked, the officials at the Heyang County Magistrate’s Office and the Anqing Prefecture Office were undoubtedly the most anxious. Although the Green Sand Gang was currently in the eye of the storm, that would only be the case once the culprit was identified—or failed to be identified. For now, as long as they remained compliant, neither the county magistrate nor the prefectural officials would waste their limited energy on them. There was still time! The members of the Green Sand Gang deliberated in the council hall until the first light of dawn began to paint the horizon before they finally dispersed.
After hanging up the phone, the white man shook his head. If it weren't for his father, that fellow named Soka would have been killed by him long ago. But looking at it now, not finishing him off was his greatest mistake.

The urgent sound of the doorbell jolted Li Zhen awake. His first instinct was to grab the pistol he had placed on the table, and he stood up, frowning. The TOY Hotel did not disturb its guests; no housekeeping staff would come to clean until the guest checked out, ensuring maximum privacy.
The base shook as if struck by an earthquake. Of course, because it was connected to the Earth's core magnetic field, the foundation of the undersea base was severely affected. In short, at that moment, the entire undersea facility shuddered violently.
The experts from the Upper Four Sects arrived in the dozens. Once this group surged in, it was like hungry tigers pouncing on sheep. The situation for the Broken Palm Gang instantly shifted from an easy advantage to a desperate struggle.
As soon as the referee on the scene saw that Iron Blossom had collapsed and could not rise, he immediately announced the result of the match in a loud voice.
Flames surged into the sky all around, converging into a purple-red dragon shape that dove toward Gu Tianyi below.
Guan Yu turned to look at Zhang Fei, then walked silently to Liu Tianhao’s side. Zhang Fei, still feeling indignant, shot a glare at Guan Yu, but seeing that Guan Yu made no further move, he remained where he was and turned his gaze toward Liu Tianhao.
Seeing Zhang Huaiyang’s elaborate display, Dao Yunchu was secretly startled. This was his first time witnessing such an alchemy technique, and he began calculating the potential outcome of the alchemy by counting on his fingers.

One had to understand that thirty million immortal spirit stones could only be produced by major factions of the nineteenth or twentieth star level. Five hundred immortal herbs were also treasures of immense value, not to mention the Imperial Weapon, which was the dream of every elder expert!
Xu Kai checked back and forth repeatedly to ensure there were no more traps. He let out a long breath and signed his name on the Sacred Covenant.
The two fell silent for a moment, clearly considering how to respond. They understood that they were no match for the Gu Sheng before them; rather than struggle, it might be better to cooperate, as that might offer a slim chance of survival.
