Chapter 345: Who Am I? I'll Take Your Dog's Life!
2024-11-02
Perhaps when he becomes a Grandmaster, even if he couldn't destroy the Dawn Society, getting them to hand over the assassins who killed his disciple wouldn't be a difficult task.
With this thought, Xie Tian's inner torment lessened significantly.
He looked at the ledger in front of him and the last row of numbers.
Even this money wasn't all his.
He had to hand over at least half of it to the people above; if he didn't, the consequences had already occurred once before.
"Understood. I hope you can keep your word."
His gaze swept over the group once more.
He spoke again to reassure them.
"If you truly achieve this, I, as your master, won't mistreat you. From now on, your cultivation resources will at least double."
Hearing this, the group exchanged glances, their faces filled with joy.
"Thank you, Master!"
"It's too early to thank me now. Let's see what happens after you achieve it."
Xie Tian threw out a sentence, stood up, and headed upstairs.
However, just at that moment, footsteps could be heard from the staircase.
These footsteps sounded unfamiliar, and not only did Xie Tian notice this strangeness, but the others did too, and they immediately sensed the anomaly.
Following this, a middle-aged man they didn't recognize walked up.
"What are you doing? This isn't where you should be. Get out of here!"
A man stood up and shouted loudly.
Apparently, they mistook this suddenly appearing man for a member of the martial arts academy.
The unfamiliar man merely glanced at him indifferently, and his gaze fell on Xie Tian.
"Are you Xie Tian?"
Xie Tian's expression turned serious. From this man, he sensed a dangerous aura.
"Who are you?"
"I'll take your dog's life!"
As his words fell, Jiang Cheng stomped on the ground, causing the ground beneath him to shatter instantly, and large chunks of steel bars smashed into the third-floor ground.
At the same time, he had already reached Xie Tian and, without any fancy moves, delivered a full-force punch directly towards his opponent's chest.
The surrounding airflow was torn apart by this punch, emitting a roar like that of a giant elephant.
"!"
Caught off guard, Xie Tian was hit by this punch in the chest, and his entire body flew backward, smashing through the wall behind him, sending dust flying.
"Master!"
The others exclaimed in surprise.
In truth, they hadn't even seen Jiang Cheng's movements; they only saw him charge forward, and their master was sent flying.
Jiang Cheng stomped on the ground again, instantly passing through the hole in the wall.
His punch seemed to have landed on his opponent, but at the last moment, a white light appeared on Xie Tian's body, blocking this fatal strike.
As expected, when Jiang Cheng appeared, he saw Xie Tian, covered in dust and looking disheveled, getting up from the ground, about to flee.
Upon seeing Jiang Cheng, fear flashed in Xie Tian's eyes.
With just one punch, Jiang Cheng had shattered the only advanced talisman Xie Tian had on his body! Although Xie Tian was an Eighth Rank, he wasn't a newcomer to the rank, and his maximum punch force was around forty tons. However, when facing an opponent who was at least a Ninth Rank Primal Energy Warrior, the gap in strength was still significant.
U
But right now, his opponent was relentless in pursuit, giving him no chance to escape.
"Hold on!"
Jiang Cheng took a quick step forward and threw another punch towards Xie Tian's chest.
"You're going too far!"
Xie Tian's rage was provoked, and he roared, meeting Jiang Cheng's fist with his own.
"Boom!"
Their fists collided, creating a terrifying wave of energy that swept in all directions, flipping over tables, chairs, and benches nearby.
Jiang Cheng stood firm and unmoving.
On the other hand, Xie Tian stumbled back several steps, his entire right arm almost unable to lift, and his five fingers ached unbearably.
"Who are you? I don't recall having any deep grudge with you that would make you want to take my life."
He gritted his teeth and asked through the pain.
Jiang Cheng did not answer, instead, he used his fists to convey the answer.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Their fists collided repeatedly.
After a few loud crashes.
"Crack!"
A sharp sound echoed.
Xie Tian's right arm finally gave way, his forearm broken, and his entire hand hung limply. The intense pain caused him to let out a piercing scream.
Jiang Cheng seized the opportunity and punched him in the chest.
In a panic, Xie Tian could only use his intact left arm to protect his vital areas.
"Boom!"
This time, he was sent flying several dozen meters, crashing through several walls before finally slamming into one, spitting out a large mouthful of blood.
His left arm was broken.
Two ribs were also broken.
Fortunately, it wasn't a fatal injury, but his situation was worsening.
"Who are you, who are you!"
His eyes were bloodshot, and his voice carried a hint of rage of helplessness.
Who would have thought that while just staying on his own turf, someone would suddenly attack him, each move aimed at taking his life?
"Guess?"
Jiang Cheng approached slowly.
Several thoughts flashed through Xie Tian's mind, and he blurted out.
"Was it the Dawn Society that sent you? You're from the Dawn Society!"
After much consideration, this was the only possibility he could think of.
But if that was the case, didn't the Dawn Society go too far?
He had already given up on pursuing that person, treating the incident as if it never happened, yet the other side still wouldn't let him off?
"Used to be."
Jiang Cheng shrugged.
"Not anymore."
"What do you mean?"
Xie Tian was taken aback.
"Do you remember Cang Hai?"
Jiang Cheng asked.
"Cang Hai?"
Xie Tian's face changed drastically.
He remembered the intelligence provided by the Blood Hand Society, which stated that this person named Cang Hai had killed two of his disciples.
Unfortunately, under the pressure of the Dawn Society, he had no choice but to remain silent.
"Wait, you're Cang Hai?"
He suddenly thought of something and widened his eyes.
Jiang Cheng nodded.
"You're Cang Hai? No! Impossible!"
Xie Tian, agitated, stood up from the ground, firing off a series of questions: "You're not him! You can't be him! How could you possibly be him? Tell me, who are you really!"
That Cang Hai, according to reports, was only a Second Rank Force Warrior, skilled with a gun.
But the person in front of him was a Ninth Rank Force Warrior, dominating him from start to finish.
Even if the Blood Hand Society's intelligence was flawed, it wouldn't be off by such a huge margin, would it?
Jiang Cheng sneered.
Did he have to prove his identity to this guy?
Of course, he came here today not only to take the other person's life but also to find out who was behind this.
If he didn't eliminate that person, what good would it do to just take out Xie Tian? Soon enough, another Zhang Tian or Li Tian would pop up.
"Tell me, who is the one backing you with loans? Where do they live? What is their strength?"
Upon hearing these words, Xie Tian was stunned, then felt a wave of confusion.
So, this person was after the one behind him?
Was he just an innocent victim?
