Chapter 690 - 688: Who Is It?

Kangbadu was surprised to learn Feng Hu’s identity.

But he was also filled with confusion.

"Your father is dead?"

After all, the men he’d sent, Tian Feng and Zui Jiuzhou, had both been killed by an expert during their mission to assassinate Feng Qi.

He still didn’t know that Feng Qi was actually dead.

"Yes. My father was killed by a member of your Blood Hand Gang."

"Do you still think there’s no grudge between us?"

"If your Blood Hand Gang is not annihilated, I, Feng Hu, will end my own life."

Feng Hu hated the members of the Blood Hand Gang to the bone.

Kangbadu fell silent.

He glanced at Feng Hu, then his gaze swept over to Jiang Chen.

He could vaguely tell that Jiang Chen was the one in charge; Feng Hu was just a companion.

After a moment’s thought, he said in a deep voice, "Young Master, even if someone from our Blood Hand Gang killed Feng Qi, it has nothing to do with you."

"Why are you making a move against our Blood Hand Gang?"

He wanted to persuade Jiang Chen to back down. If a real fight broke out, he wasn’t confident in his side’s chances.

If he could get Jiang Chen to leave, that would be the best possible outcome.

As for Feng Hu, he could be disregarded.

"Me?"

"I am the one who killed Tian Feng and Zui Jiuzhou."

Jiang Chen stood with his hands behind his back, a placid expression on his face.

Even deep inside the Blood Hand Gang’s lair, he was completely unafraid.

He was confident he could annihilate the Blood Hand Gang.

"It was you?"

At that moment, Kangbadu let out a low gasp, seemingly in disbelief that his men had been killed by Jiang Chen.

Then, Kangbadu spoke again, "Since you already killed my men, why have you still come to our doorstep to kill?"

Jiang Chen said flatly, "I don’t wish to face the endless pursuit of your Blood Hand Gang."

"So, I came to you."

"To eliminate any future trouble, my only choice is to erase your Blood Hand Gang from this world."

Hearing Jiang Chen’s words, Kangbadu’s heart grew heavy.

’So that’s Jiang Chen’s goal. He wants to tear our Blood Hand Gang out by the roots.’

In fact, if they hadn’t known the extent of Jiang Chen’s power, the Blood Hand Gang would indeed have hunted him relentlessly until he was dead.

But now, Jiang Chen had taken the initiative and brought the fight to their doorstep.

He was even more ruthless than the Blood Hand Gang itself.

Taking a few deep breaths, Kangbadu suddenly said, "Young Master, since my men have already been killed by you..."

"...I will not hold you responsible. The Blood Hand Gang will no longer pursue you. Do you think we can resolve this misunderstanding?"

He had run rampant in the Tang Kingdom for many years, yet now he was being forced by Jiang Chen to grovel and beg.

If word of this got out, the Blood Hand Gang would surely become a laughingstock.

But Kangbadu was helpless. This Jiang Chen, who had appeared out of nowhere, was surrounded by so many Martial Emperor Experts.

Jiang Chen slowly shook his head.

"Even if you wanted to kill me, you couldn’t."

"But since I’ve come here today, I have no intention of letting any of you go."

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Chen signaled Xiaotian, the Flame Dragon, and the Black Fire Crow, who all slowly stepped forward.

Their powerful auras made the members of the Blood Hand Gang terrified and uneasy.

"Must you slaughter every last one of us?"

Kangbadu once again voiced his unease.

This might be the Blood Hand Gang’s last night on earth.

He began racking his brain for a way to escape.

"For scum like you who stop at no evil, the only thing that will set my mind at ease is your death."

"That will keep you from harming anyone else ever again."

An assassin organization like the Blood Hand Gang only recognized money, not people. They hunted good and evil alike, which made them utterly detestable.

"You..."

Kangbadu was utterly choked by Jiang Chen’s words.

Gritting his teeth, he finally roared, "If that’s how it is, then I’ll let you witness the might of our Blood Hand Gang!"

"Get them! It’s either them or us today! Brothers, give it everything you’ve got!"

A massacre unfolded in the dark of night.

Within Ghost Spirit Castle, battle cries rang out one after another.

Xiaotian, the Flame Dragon, and the Black Fire Crow were all transformed Demon Beasts. Their own Cultivation could be said to far surpass that of experts at the same level.

"ROAR..."

Suddenly, the Flame Dragon could hold back no longer. With a great bellow, it let out a long, resonant dragon’s roar.

In an instant, it transformed into a Fire Dragon wreathed in burning flames.

It charged into the crowd of Blood Hand Gang members.

"BOOM!"

With a single swipe of its claw, it smashed a Golden Saber Expert to death.

Its dragon body, dozens of meters long, was an utterly shocking sight.

"A Demon Beast?"

"It’s actually the Flame Dragon Demon Beast?"

Cries of alarm and screams erupted from the members of the Blood Hand Gang.

The Black Fire Crow, of course, was not to be outdone. After a sharp cry, it transformed into a Fire Crow as black as ink, its divine might vast and its killing intent peerless.

It dove directly toward the Blood Saber expert.

That was the Blood Hand Gang’s second Martial Emperor Expert.

But how could he be a match for the Black Fire Crow?

In a short time, as the Black Fire Crow’s Black Fire swept over him, the expert was burned to ash.

The others fared even worse.

Xiaotian didn’t even transform. But when he attacked, his hands shimmered with golden light, transforming into dragon claws that were even more terrifying than a Treasure Artifact.

Anyone struck by his palms was instantly pulverized.

The three great experts swept through the area, their power boundless.

Kangbadu was scared out of his wits.

He ordered the others to charge forward while he himself quickly retreated, preparing to flee.

He knew that in the face of such terrifying opponents, the Blood Hand Gang was doomed to perish today.

"Hmph."

"Where do you think you’re going?"

In a flash, Xiaotian blurred and appeared in front of Kangbadu, moving even faster.

He blocked Kangbadu’s path.

Kangbadu’s whole body trembled violently. He almost started crying.

He said hastily, "Sir, please spare my life."

But Xiaotian remained silent.

Staring at Kangbadu, in the next moment, his palm flipped and descended in a strike.

"BOOM!"

Kangbadu was also a Martial Emperor Expert, yet he was sent flying by Xiaotian’s single palm strike. He crashed to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

At the same time, that palm strike from Xiaotian had also completely sealed Kangbadu’s Cultivation Power.

Lying helplessly on the ground, Kangbadu felt like dying.

’Why did I ever take on such a mission? Now the entire Blood Hand Gang has been dragged down with me.’

"SMACK!"

Feng Hu lunged forward, swung his fist, and smashed it viciously into Kangbadu’s face.

"All of you from the Blood Hand Gang deserve to die!"

"SMACK!"

With his Cultivation sealed, Kangbadu was completely defenseless.

He was beaten repeatedly by Feng Hu.

When had Kangbadu ever fallen so low as to be beaten by someone with such weak Cultivation?

But he had no chance to resist and was soon beaten until he was coughing up blood by the enraged Feng Hu.

Meanwhile, the sounds of battle throughout Ghost Spirit Castle died down in a short amount of time.

The Blood Hand Gang was completely annihilated.

The Flame Dragon, the Black Fire Crow, and Xiaotian walked over, staring menacingly at Kangbadu.

After he was done beating him, Feng Hu demanded, "Who hired you to kill my father?"

"Tell me, who was it?"

Even after brutalizing Kangbadu, Feng Hu was still not satisfied.

He wanted to know the identity of the mastermind behind his father’s murder.

Kangbadu felt a wave of despair at having fallen to this state.

It was all because of Tang Yuan.

He hated Tang Yuan quite a bit himself.

Knowing his life was in danger, in a desperate bid to survive, he hurriedly looked at Jiang Chen and said, "Young Master, if I tell you who the mastermind is, will you spare my life?"

His desire to live was stronger than it had ever been.

He looked at Jiang Chen with pleading eyes.

Jiang Chen nodded. "You may."

"Go ahead and speak."

Kangbadu was overjoyed.

He said hastily, "It was Tang Yuan! Prince Tang Yuan of the Tang Kingdom! He paid me to kill Feng Qi."

"Our Blood Hand Gang was just following Tang Yuan’s orders! It has nothing to do with me!"

Jiang Chen was a little surprised.

And Feng Hu, standing beside him, was so shocked his jaw dropped.

He roared, "You’re spouting nonsense! Tang Yuan is my cousin! How could he possibly kill my father?"

Feng Hu couldn’t believe that Tang Yuan was responsible.

This was too terrifying.

But Kangbadu said with certainty, "How could I be lying to you? Tang Yuan had just left right before you arrived."

"If it weren’t for Tang Yuan, I had no quarrel or grudge with your father, Feng Qi. Why would I kill him?"

"This is all because of Tang Yuan."

Kangbadu told them everything, just for a chance to live.

He asked, "Now, can you let me go?"

Jiang Chen nodded.

This made Kangbadu ecstatic.

But then, Feng Hu suddenly said, "The Young Master has let you go, but I never said I would."

He picked up a Golden Saber from the ground.

He viciously hacked it into Kangbadu’s body.

Kangbadu’s eyes bulged wide as he fell to the ground.
