Mao Lin's question instantly made the three martial spirit masters' faces flush red with anger, their facial muscles twitching uncontrollably.
In their hearts, they even had the urge to kill Mao Lin.
That damn blind bastard!
How could he not see the lineup across from them? The combined effect of that lineup, even if it was the three of them as martial spirits, or even three martial kings, they would still fall here.
For a long while, the three of them were so angry they couldn't get a word out.
There was only one thought in their minds - hurry up and make it clear they're not associated with the Pingjiang Commercial Firm, then get the hell out of here!
This matter, this lineup, they couldn't afford to provoke!
"Hmm? Esteemed sirs?" However, Mao Lin, seemingly oblivious, spoke up again, blinking his eyes and casting an inquiring look their way.
"Damn you and your mother."
The leading martial spirit master slapped Mao Lin across the face, hitting him so hard that stars appeared before his eyes, and said at the same time: "Chairman Mao, we've bought what we need, so we'll be on our way first."Clearly, by saying this, they wanted Qingshan Sect to think that the three of them had only come here to buy things.
After speaking, the three martial spirit masters exchanged glances, then hurried to leave from the side, soon arriving at the entrance without anyone blocking them.
This made them secretly heave a sigh of relief, with slight smug smiles appearing on their faces.
But just as they thought they were in the clear, right after being slapped and coming to their senses, Mao Lin suddenly cried out,
"Esteemed sirs, what is the meaning of this? Weren't you just adamantly saying you would help us take care of these people? How can you suddenly abandon us like this?"
Dammit!
Mao Lin's words instantly caused the three martial spirits' faces to change dramatically.
Not daring to linger for a second, the martial spirit aura around the three people violently erupted. With a stomp of their feet the ground cracked, and they tried to fly away.
But just as they had taken off, an extremely dangerous aura enveloped them.
Looking back, they saw Lu Qingshan floating in midair. With a wave of his hand, the kitchen knife in his hand radiated a dazzling brilliance before leaving his hand.
In the air, the light transformed by the kitchen knife grew larger and larger, until it reached a hundred yards wide, then hacked down vertically.
"Boom!"
"Boom boom boom..."
Along with a series of sonic booms, countless buildings collapsed with a rumble. The knife aura left a gorge several hundred meters long in front of the three martial spirits, spewing clouds of dust into the sky.
The three martial spirits were drenched in cold sweat. Facing such might from a single kitchen knife, they froze in place.
Clearly this gorge was nothing to them, and they could easily fly over it. But now it had become an insurmountable ravine, one they didn't dare cross.
Because they knew in their hearts that if they moved another step, that kitchen knife would likely fall on their heads.
This single knife strike was truly too terrifying!
"It seems like you three are also involved in this matter?"
High above, Lu Qingshan's sharp gaze suddenly turned to them, his dignified voice ringing out.
At the same time he spoke, the gazes of the other Qingshan Sect members also shifted to look at them as one.
These gazes made the three martial spirits' hair stand on end. Under the combined pressure of so many people's gazes, even these three martial spirit masters could not withstand it, nearly suffering a mental collapse.
"Damn you and your mother, Mao Lin!"
Finally, in anxious rage, one of the martial spirits turned and cursed Mao Lin. If not for this blind bastard's untimely words at the critical moment, they could have fled long ago.
"I ask you again, are you also involved in this matter?" Lu Qingshan's imposing voice rang out again, refusing to bother with their in-fighting.
Knowing they couldn't escape this matter, the three martial spirits could only face it head on, and simply hardened their attitudes, saying: "That's right, we're involved."
"So what of it?"
"Even if the three of us together are not your match, if you really want to make a move against us, you still have to consider our identities."
"Oh?"
Lu Qingshan's gaze narrowed slightly.
"We're from the South Sha Gang, you need to understand, when my Gang was flourishing, we were beyond compare to your Qingshan Sect." That martial spirit arrogantly said: "Although we have declined quite a bit now and can't compare to your Qingshan Sect, a camel that starved to death is still bigger than a horse. If you really want to move against us, you still have to consider carefully."
As he spoke, the three martial spirits revealed an arrogance stemming from having a powerful background.
While they were indeed deterred by Qingshan Sect's lineup at first, remembering they had the Gang as backing, Qingshan Sect wouldn't dare make a move against them.
Mao Lin finally understood that these three martial spirits were not a match for Qingshan Sect. Hearing their words, the lifeless look on his face revived once more.
After all, they were grasshoppers on the same rope now!
"What if I insist on acting against you?"
Lu Qingshan's pupils contracted as he spoke coldly.
"Then my Gang will definitely not let this rest. After all, we are elders of the Gang." That martial spirit unabashedly threatened: "Unless you take the risk of triggering an all-out war between your Qingshan Sect and my Gang by moving against us."
"Very well."
Lu Qingshan's expression fluctuated, betraying neither joy nor anger.
But in the next moment, with a wave of his hand, his rolling voice spread throughout the horizon.
"Listen to my command. Leave eighteen guardians here to defend this place. The rest will be led by Zhu Yun to quickly move out and annihilate the Gang within a day!"
"What?"
The previously arrogant martial spirits' faces dramatically changed at his words, their gazes fixed tightly on Lu Qingshan.
"You, you, you..."
"Over a trivial matter involving a mortal, you would actually destroy my entire Gang, how could you, how dare you?!"
