Chapter 477: Chapter 441: Join Forces

Li San hung up the phone, frowning slightly.

Although Lin Yun hadn’t explicitly mentioned it during the call, Li San understood that Lin Yun was subtly hinting for him to have a chat with Wu Li.

Because Wu Li’s methods tonight were too domineering; to assassinate a member of the Longhua Association, he even took out the leader of another faction! Once this news gets out, the other powers might think that Zhiqing Hall is too aggressive. If Wu Li continues to handle things this way, it might unnecessarily create many enemies for Zhiqing Hall.

Lin Yun was worried, but since he wasn’t close to Wu Li, he feared that approaching him directly might irritate Wu. Therefore, he took a detour and contacted Li San.

Li San still had to respect Lin Yun’s request, and he was also curious why Wu Li had resorted to such a massacre tonight, so he called Wu Li.

The phone was quickly answered:

"Hello?"

"Driving?"

"Yeah, you’re not asleep this late?"

"I heard about your heroic deeds. I’m too excited to sleep."

"Cut the crap, what do you want?"

"Were you provoked tonight?"

"...Not exactly a provocation."

"So, you were indeed provoked?"

"Heh, actually, there’s a lot of messy stuff in this world. I’ve heard of many and experienced some myself."

"Hmm."

Li San held his phone, quietly listening to Wu Li speak.

"You know I’ve meddled in many things, right?" Wu Li asked.

Li San chuckled, "I’ve seen your variety show, passionate youth."

Wu Li also laughed: "Haha! I do feel quite passionate at times, but my strength is limited, so I always tell myself that universal peace is too far off, just try to manage the peace around me."

Li San: "So, was tonight the same?"

"You’ve seen my variety show. Do you remember the part about the Southern Country?" Wu asked, not directly answering.

Li San: "I do."

Wu Li: "Master Zhang from Jiyun Hall’s granddaughter, Xiao Yun’er, a very cute little girl. Her dad died at the hands of Hu Shan, and she kept asking me to tell her stories back then."

"Having lost her parents at a young age, she’s clearly very tragic, yet she remains so optimistic that anyone who sees her smile can’t help but smile along."

"I felt then, for that feeling, I truly wouldn’t mind wiping out all those people like Hu Shan, if I had the power to."

Wu Li spoke of wiping people out, yet his tone remained calm, containing no trace of murderous intent.

Li San held the phone in silence for a moment, only the whistling wind and the roaring engine from the other end of the line could be heard.

"So, which is why Bolis’s men are all dead."

"Hmm."

"Understood."

A smile emerged on Li San’s face, "Next time something like this happens..."

"Remember to call me."

Laughter from Wu Li echoed:

"Definitely."

...

The next day, Meng City.

"Commander, it looks like you have a mole from the opposing side in your gang."

In the room, a white man with arms covered in tattoos toyed with a butterfly knife while speaking.

Whether standing or sitting, there were five people in the room, including Long Yu. Apart from a newly promoted Elder of the Longhua Association, the remaining three were squadron commanders of the White Reaper.

A squadron in the White Reaper consisted of more than one hundred people, and Long Yu had brought three squadrons with him this time.

The personnel in this room also showed that, compared to the people of Longhua Association, Long Yu still trusted the foundation he had built in the White Reaper more.

"Lin Yun is an old fox. It’s quite normal for him to have planted a mole in the Longhua Association," Long Yu scoffed coldly.

The real key to the two assassinations last night wasn’t the strength of the executioner, but the accurate intelligence arranged by Lin Yun’s undercover agent.

Of course, the assassination in River County was somewhat unexpected for Long Yu.

"Commander."

A burly man sitting beside the table, quickly disassembling a gun, spoke up, "Last night in River County, 47 people, I heard they were all killed by one person?"

Long Yu narrowed his eyes, "Zhiqing Hall doesn’t have such a skilled person. Li San from Zhiyuan Hall has been injured by me. It’s unlikely that other branches of Hongmen would interfere. It would only be Wu Li who took action."

"Seems like he is as formidable a warrior as you are," said a woman, her short hair dyed purple. She was also a squadron leader of the White Reaper.

"Dragon King," the newly promoted elder of the Longhua Association spoke cautiously, "If Wu Li continues to kill like this, I’m afraid there will be problems."

Long Yu looked at him, "Are you scared?"

The man immediately fell silent, not daring to speak.

Long Yu snorted coldly. He knew that when the news got back, Wu Li’s actions last night must have frightened a bunch of people. After all, if Chang Hao could be killed despite so many protectors, wouldn’t the rest of the Longhua members be vulnerable once their locations were exposed? Could Wu Li not just kill whomever he wanted?

Though Wu Li hadn’t thought that much before acting last night, the effect generated by this incident was indeed more intimidating than if he had simply assassinated Chang Hao alone.

"Don’t worry about Wu Li, I have my plans," Long Yu said.

"Yes," the elder quickly bowed his head.

...

At night, atop the rooftop of a tall building, Long Yu stood at the edge, his coat flapping in the night breeze.

The building was twenty-six stories high, anyone falling from this height, even a grandmaster like Long Yu, would be smashed to pulp, yet there he stood at the edge without a hint of worry or fear.

After a while, Long Yu’s ears twitched, hearing footsteps coming from behind.

A figure appeared on the rooftop, slowly approaching Long Yu, who stood with his back to the newcomer, not minding exposing his back to the other.

The visitor was none other than Victor, who had once organized a capture squad for Wu Li.

Victor stopped ten steps behind Long Yu, standing silently, and did not speak.

While Long Yu looked at the distant buildings lit by lights, he also seemed to have no intention of speaking.

The two remained silent for minutes, until Long Yu suddenly spoke in a cold voice, "Are you seeking death?"

It turned out that just moments ago, Victor behind him had suddenly looked at Long Yu’s back with a murderous gaze, attempting to provoke some reaction.

Victor’s sudden murderous intent was extremely intense, enough that a slightly sensitive boxer would have instinctively reacted, their hair standing on end, muscles tensed, body on full alert.

However, Long Yu just slightly furrowed his brow, his heartbeat didn’t change at all, still steady. Considering he was standing at the edge of the rooftop, back to Victor, it showed his incredible control over his emotions to an unshakeable degree.

Victor, unfazed by Long Yu’s threat, spoke calmly, "Did you want something?"

Long Yu turned around, facing Victor, "You are very interested in Wu Li?"

Victor’s tone remained the same, "Actually, we’re quite interested in you as well."

Boom!

The air suddenly exploded with noise as Long Yu stepped forward, rushing toward Victor like a Dragon King marching with the storm, carrying an immense momentum.

Facing the sudden outburst from Long Yu, Victor’s originally pale face instantly flushed, his body reverberating with the sound of flowing blood!

At the same moment, his eyes turned blood-red, his demeanor transforming drastically—the calm human from a second ago now looked like a blood-thirsty beast.

Unsurprised, Long Yu extended his right hand, his fingers unusually thick, palm protruding, and struck with the Killing Move of Five Mountains Suppressing Sea!

Victor’s fists moved upward, his stance precisely that of the standard Xingyi Cannon Fist.

Sky-reaching Cannon!

As his fists shot out, his blood roiled, muscles exploded, as if thousands of cannons were firing at the sky simultaneously, numerous heavy cannonballs blasting forth to shatter the heavens!

With just this Cannon Fist Power, Victor qualified to be called a master of Xingyi Fist.

However, he faced Long Yu—whose Five Mountains Suppressing Sea’s Killing Move did not relent for an instant.

Boom!

A huge collision sound erupted, Victor’s body shook, influenced by Long Yu’s Innate Gang Qi, his movements slowed.

Swoosh!

Long Yu’s own Qi and blood surged inside him; his left hand shot out swiftly as lightning, exploiting Victor’s slightly delayed power exertion. He blasted open the other’s arms and then grasped Victor’s neck.

The next second, Victor’s neck was tightly seized, needing only a light movement from Long Yu to be snapped.

Victor’s ruddy complexion quickly faded, his eyes regaining clarity, and he stared at Long Yu, unafraid.

"You think a few explosive moves qualify you to pose in front of me? You’re far behind the still unbroken-through Wu Li!"

Long Yu held Victor’s neck, spoke coldly.

"However, you couldn’t kill Wu Li before, and you certainly can’t now, otherwise, you wouldn’t have called me here," Victor said calmly, unconcerned about being potentially killed by Long Yu at any moment.

Long Yu didn’t rebut Victor’s statement; he himself believed that he could, even now, manage to kill Wu Li in a one-on-one fight, but it might come at a great cost, and he wasn’t willing to take that risk.

And yet, now Wu Li had gotten involved in the struggle between Zhiqing Hall and Longhua Association, his way of intimidating his own people bothered Long Yu.

Lin Yun was very wary that Long Yu might consider assassinating Zhiqing Hall’s people recklessly, and by the same token, Long Yu was wary of Wu Li recklessly killing Longhua members, like last night. If both sides continued this tit-for-tat, it would lead to mutual destruction.

Now with Wu Li backed by Zhiqing Hall, with better information and more resources at his disposal, and careful to hide his movements, it was impossible for Long Yu to simply locate and surround him for assassination like before. That’s why he specifically sought out Victor tonight, hoping to collaborate to take down Wu Li!

"We will provide people, collaborate and take down Wu Li together, and after that, he’s all yours."

At that moment, Long Yu let go of Victor and stated decisively.
