How could such a fine person just die for no reason? The martial world is abuzz with rumors, each different from the other. But according to the 'Tianlong Gang,' there is only one phrase: 'The heavens are unpredictable, and human fortune and misfortune can change overnight.' Simple yet apt, it is enough to settle everyone's疑虑. Yet behind the scenes, some say that Master Ke's death might be related to Xiao Ke leaving the Tianlong Gang. Even if this is speculation by the troublemakers of the martial world, some things never arise from nowhere; they come about peculiarly and abruptly, but enough to shock. The afterglow of the setting sun shattered upon the water, startling a pair of birds in flight. Sitting by the creek, staring blankly at the sparkling water, his sad face was pale, and moments later, beads of cold sweat appeared. Suddenly, he remembered a line from Sir Yi: 'Power, money, beauty, everyone desires them. If you give them up, don't you regret it?' Drawing in a cold breath, his entire body was drenched in cold sweat, a chill that startled Xiao Ke with a sharp pain in his heart. He was framed, forced to leave the Tianlong Gang, and now there's Ke Longfei's sudden death—could there be some sinister plot behind it? Is it really someone trying to seize the Tianlong Gang's enviable vast enterprise? Xiao Ke's breathing grew rapid, and he coughed heavily, thinking, 'That night, the person who knocked me out placed me on Liu Jinfeng's bed. Liu Jinfeng's scream summoned Dragon Elder, who woke me with a single staff strike. Everyone then witnessed a forbidden truth. Originally, this should have been a flawless plan. But at the time, I was unconscious—couldn't Liu Jinfeng see it? With a struggle, just one push could have sent me off the bed, yet Liu Jinfeng didn't...' A boundless fear spread in the darkness. Xiao Ke dared not think further, suffering through a sleepless night. The next day, several incense hall masters who were close to Ke Longfei and had conspired to 'rebel' were killed. For a time, the Tianlong Gang was in turmoil, the winds and clouds in upheaval. Xiao Ke could no longer sit idly by; morally and rationally, he could not remain indifferent. Besides, Ke Longfei's death must be fully investigated. So he decided to visit the Tianlong Gang overnight. Ke Longfei's funeral hall was set up at the 'Assembly Hall' of the Tianlong Gang.The hall was filled with swirling smoke, and wreaths of pale flowers with condolence banners were placed all around. A slight breeze made them rustle, and in the deep of the night, it sounded like the wailing of wronged spirits, extremely horrifying.\ A few dim candles flickered with a faint green light, struggling and swaying, casting a mournful, piercing gaze in the dark and cold atmosphere.\ It was at the darkest and most oppressive time of night that Xiao Ke drifted in.\ Raising his eyes, he was met with the portrait of his brother, Ke Longfei, with benevolent and gentle eyes. A faint smile, like a knife, cut Xiao Ke's heart, leaving it bleeding.\ His chest tightened with sorrow, wishing he could just let out a loud cry.\ Lifting the coffin lid, a lifelike face was revealed. If not for knowing he was dead, Xiao Ke would never have believed that the person lying in the coffin was a corpse.\ Overcome with grief, Xiao Ke touched his brother's cold body, his hands trembling uncontrollably.\ But unexpectedly, Ke Longfei's body showed not a single wound, not even a sign of poison.\ “Could it be that my brother really died a natural death?”\ Or perhaps he had been poisoned with a toxin that left no trace?\ Suddenly, Xiao Ke, by the light, noticed that the tips of his brother's toes were blackened. If he hadn't taken off his shoes, he probably never would have seen it. A shiver ran through him as he silently thought, “It really is poisoning, but how could the signs show up on the toes?”\ Xiao Ke didn't dwell on it and had no time to think it through.\ The moment he closed the coffin, tears finally fell from his eyes. Stroking the deep red coffin, his heart filled with grief and anger. He whispered softly, "Big brother, no matter what, I will make sure to avenge you!"\ A gust of wind extinguished all the flames, leaving the hall in boundless darkness and sorrow.\ In the darkness, someone let out a heavy sigh.\ Xiao Ke didn't hear it; he had already gone far away…\ Along the way, the wind whistled past his ears. Only when he had run far from the city did he stop, looking up at the sky and shouting, as if trying to release all the resentment in his heart at once.\ Then he collapsed to the ground, crying out loud.\ Only when he was exhausted from crying did he calm down and ponder a question.\ Since his brother died from poison, who could have poisoned him?\ Considering Ke Longfei's experience in the martial world, and his usually sharp and cautious nature, there were many in the jianghu who might have wanted to harm him, but there was absolutely no one who could have successfully poisoned him.Xiao Ke gritted his teeth and thought, "If someone can get what they want without anyone knowing, then only one person could do it!"

That person could only be Liu Jinfeng.

Because no matter how cautious a person is in their actions and dealings, they would only let their guard down around their own spouse. Only in this way could Liu Jinfeng have the opportunity to secretly poison someone without Ke Longfei noticing.

But why would Liu Jinfeng want to harm her own husband?

Even if she was willing to do whatever it takes to drive Xiao Ke away from the Tianlong Gang, she had no reason to kill Ke Longfei!

Xiao Ke felt a deep pain in his heart, unable to believe such a cruel truth, even hoping that he was mistaken. His mind was in turmoil, unwilling to think further, but the more he tried not to think, the clearer it became, the pain so intense that even the drink in his stomach seemed ready to come back up.

The restaurant was really crowded, every table full of people, all happily drinking and eating.

Xiao Ke felt his stomach pain unbearably, he bent down under the table to vomit, but nothing came out, only a dry heave.

At that moment, through the gaps between many people's legs, Xiao Ke suddenly saw a very familiar figure slip out the door, followed by another person.

Xiao Ke was startled—weren't they Gongzi Yi and Chen Chong? Why was he with Gongzi Yi?

It wasn't until the two spoke a few words at the door and left that Xiao Ke straightened up and murmured, "Last time when I left the Tianlong Gang, Gongzi Yi inexplicably came looking for me, and then there was that scar-faced person. How could it be such a coincidence? Very few people knew the real circumstances when I left the Tianlong Gang, yet Gongzi Yi found out so quickly. How did he get the news? And Chen Chong was with him today. Could Chen Chong have told him? But why would Chen Chong tell him?"

He could not figure it out. After finishing a glass of wine, Xiao Ke shot out like an arrow.

Chen Chong was walking to the left, and Xiao Ke followed all the way. Sure enough, at the next street corner, he saw Chen Chong.

Chen Chong seemed unaware that someone was following him and turned into a secluded courtyard.

Although Xiao Ke thought it strange, he pushed open the door and went in.

Upon seeing Xiao Ke, Chen Chong was obviously surprised, then his face lit up with excitement.Meeting friends is always a happy thing.

This place was not only the residence rented by Chen Chong, but also stocked with plenty of good liquor, as if it had been specially prepared knowing that Xiao Ke was coming.

The wine disappeared cup by cup, and Chen Chong's enthusiasm left Xiao Ke unable to refuse, so he could only keep drinking.

Thus, amid the passing of cups, Xiao Ke got drunk again.

Watching Xiao Ke sleep with his head on the table, Chen Chong's eyes flickered with a strange light, and he sighed, “Xiao Ke, I'm sorry. I didn't want it to be like this either, but there's really no way. If I don't do it, they will kill my sister…”

With a helpless sigh, a prepared rope was looped over Xiao Ke's shoulders.

A trace of guilt flashed in Chen Chong's eyes as he said, “Xiao Ke, she's my only sister, I can't just watch her die…”

But Xiao Ke suddenly lifted his head and said, “So you betrayed me, didn't you?”

Chen Chong was shocked, stepped back a few steps, and exclaimed in alarm, “You… you…”

Xiao Ke's gaze was sharp, directly pressing on him, and said, “Tell me, what exactly is going on?”

Chen Chong's expression fell as he said, “Even if you knew, it wouldn't help, because you simply can't fight them.”

Xiao Ke clenched his fists tightly and said coldly, “You were the one who knocked me out in front of my brother's door, weren't you?”

Chen Chong's expression changed again, looking somewhat embarrassed, and said, “How did you know?”

Xiao Ke sneered, “We're like brothers, I know you best. A person who rarely drinks suddenly becoming fond of alcohol in front of me—that's clearly a deliberate attempt to get me drunk. Of course, that alone can't prove it, but you repeated the same trick this time, so I can be certain it was you who knocked me out.”

The muscles on Chen Chong's face twitched, guilt and pain filling his eyes, as he said, “Since you already know, I have nothing more to say.”

Xiao Ke felt a pang in his chest and a growing desolation, saying, “Then who was that man in black?”

Chen Chong looked away, did not answer, hesitated for a long while, and finally lifted his head, his expression grim, and said to Xiao Ke, “Xiao Ke, since you insist on knowing, I won't hide it from you anymore, but…” Suddenly he let out a muffled groan, his face twisted in terror in an instant, eyes bulging, hands clutching his throat, opening his mouth but unable to speak.
Blood flowed between his fingers. Peeling open his hand, a coin dart was stuck in his throat.
Xiao Ke darted out the door like lightning, and a figure flashed by—it was a young master's robe.
Xiao Ke took a sharp breath, feeling a murderous aura rush toward him, pressing down so hard he could barely breathe.
Turning back inside, Chen Chong was already dead.
Xiao Ke shook his head and sighed sadly, feeling even more desolate inside. This was a friend of many years, but was a friend really worth trusting?
Just as Xiao Ke was filled with emotion, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, and someone suddenly burst in—it was Chen Juan.
Xiao Ke's heart turned cold to the extreme because he found out that drinking in the tavern, Gongzi Yi and Chen Chong had deliberately lured him here, until Chen Juan appeared. It was clearly all Gongzi Yi's scheme. But Gongzi Yi was from Wuyou Villa, with no connection to the Tianlong Gang, so why would he want to harm Xiao Ke?
As soon as Chen Juan entered, she shouted, "Xiao Ke..." Her gaze landed on Chen Chong, and she screamed and rushed forward.
The cold corpse clearly triggered the deepest pain in her heart. With a loud scream, she actually fainted. Xiao Ke quickly supported her back to keep her from falling, calling out, "Xiao Juan, Xiao Juan..." When Chen Juan first saw her brother dead, she was overwhelmed with grief and immediately fainted. When Xiao Ke called out and she slowly woke up, tears poured down as she cried out loudly. Xiao Ke didn't know how to comfort her, and could only secretly grieve. But after crying for a while, Chen Juan suddenly flipped over, drew her sword she always carried, pointed at Xiao Ke's tearful tears, and said, "It's... You killed... Did you kill my brother?" Xiao Ke hurriedly said, "No, it's not me, Xiao Juan..." In her panic, she even started stammering as she spoke. Suddenly, someone outside the door sneered, "You killed Chen Chong, and you don't dare admit it yet?" "This person was none other than Young Master Yi, his face full of malice." Xiao Ke said, "Xiao Juan, don't... Don't listen to his nonsense. I didn't kill your brother..." "" Master Yi said, "I saw it with my own eyes. How could that be nonsense? If I hadn't escaped quickly, I might have been harmed by you too. Chen Juan, he killed your brother, and you still won't avenge him?" "
Suddenly, many people flashed out from behind Gongzi Yi, surrounding the entrance, each holding a gleaming blade, cool and dazzling.At this moment, Chen Juan was overwhelmed by immense pain, trembling all over as she screamed, "Xiao Ke, all my feelings for you, you... You actually killed my brother, you... So heartless..." Before she could finish, she stabbed her sword at Xiao Ke, full of resentment, but her emotions ran high, the tip of the sword trembled and she lost her aim. Caught off guard, Xiao Ke was so close that the sword pierced his left shoulder, piercing deep into the flesh, causing blood to gush out.
Chen Juan struck with her sword, but seeing that he didn't dodge, she was stunned for a moment, tears streaming down her face in panic. She was stunned for a moment before her voice trembled: "You... Why didn't you dodge? "
Xiao Ke shook his head and sighed, saying nothing.
Chen Juan's anxious fingers loosened, the sword already fallen, and she rushed forward to hug Xiao Ke, heartbroken and crying in regret: "Xiao Ke, I... I didn't mean to..."
Xiao Ke gave a bitter smile and said, "Xiao Juan, it's nothing. It's just that your brother really wasn't killed by me." "
Chen Juan tilted her head back, her face streaked with tears, and said, "No... It wasn't you, then it was... Who was it?" "
Xiao Ke endured the pain and didn't say a word yet. Outside, Young Master Yi suddenly sneered, "Maybe it doesn't matter who it is anymore. Xiao Ke, you really have some ability. Even the scar-faced man couldn't kill you, so maybe your right hand has recovered? But today, I will never let you leave here alive!" He laughed terrifyingly, his handsome face twisting like a venomous snake. Xiao Ke said coldly, "I never expected Young Master Yi from Wuyou Villa to kill for Liu Jinfeng!" "Actually, Xiao Ke had no clear idea about this question; he said it just to get confirmation from him. Because a person who is arrogant often carelessly says things they shouldn't at times like this." Sure enough, Young Master Yi was a bit surprised: "Looks like you know quite a lot. If that's the case, you'll have to die!" "Xiao Ke was filled with sorrow and nearly spat out a mouthful of blood, thinking, "No wonder she keeps slandering and making things difficult for me over and over, trying to drive me out of the Tianlong Gang and then poison my brother. So her goal is to seize the Tianlong Gang. But the whole gang originally belongs to you, and she's his wife, so of course you could say she's hers." So why would she have to scheme for it? No, it can't be like that..." His heart was thrown into chaos, his head splitting, and he said, "Isn't it possible that your Young Master Yi is also interested in the Tianlong Gang?""
Gongzi Yi said, "But I'm more interested in you, Xiao Ke?" "
Xiao Ke responded with an "Oh", "Why?" "
Gongzi Yi said, "I'm especially happy to have killed a famous swordsman in the martial world, but the only regret is that you can't use your peerless Jiuyue Yingfei blade technique; otherwise, it would be even more interesting." "
Xiao Ke immediately felt relieved and thought to himself, "So he wanted to test whether I had restored my right-hand blade." Fortunately, when killing the scar-faced man, he left a hand and drew a circle at his throat; otherwise, he would have known. "
Young Master Yi gave a sinister smile and waved his hand lightly, and the more than twenty men behind him pounced in like wolves.
Chen Juan cried out in alarm, "You guys..." Before she could finish, a miserable "Ah!"
Xiao Ke was shocked, not expecting these people to be so swift and agile, arriving right in a flash.
With a moment of hesitation, the room was filled with flashes of blade light, covering the sky. Each of these people wielded blades with speed and ruthlessness, clearly no ordinary swordsman. But killing to silence them was best decided quickly. Xiao Ke dodged the flash of blades and saw Chen Juan collapse. Her beautiful eyes were filled with endless sorrow, and she was overwhelmed with grief and anger. There was no time to think—even if Chen Juan lay beside her, it was too late to support her. A dozen or so knives came at her like a madman. In just a moment, she was struck multiple times. Though not fatal, the pain was unbearable.
Young Master Yi sighed softly.
As Xiao Ke dodged left and right, he felt the blade blades scraping past his face, extremely dangerous. The room was always too cramped. No matter how skilled Xiao Ke was, facing these top martial arts masters, he was helpless. In no time, after taking a few more blows, he was terrified as if bleeding.
At this moment, Xiao Ke kicked down someone, grabbed a steel knife, and wielded it with Wind Force, averting several close dangers. Suddenly catching sight of Gongzi Yi's darting eyes, he abandoned the idea of killing mercilessly, deliberately swinging the blade until it lost momentum, staggering and uncontrollable, utterly disheveled and embarrassed.
As a result, several more slashes struck the back, penetrating deep into flesh, and Chen Juan's sword wound was quite severe, with every movement tearing the wounds with piercing pain that pierced the heart.
If this entanglement continued, even if he wasn't killed, he would die from bleeding completely.At this moment, Xiao Ke felt as if he had jumped out of a pool of blood, his whole body drenched in blood, unsure if it was his own or the enemy's.

Xiao Ke swung his knife to dodge the two in front of him, then, taking advantage of their evasive gap, leaped and kicked through the window. In the next instant, he had already jumped outside the window, but before his feet could touch the ground, three more blades rained down on him like Mount Tai. Startled, Xiao Ke forcefully leapt to the side to evade.

Due to his severe injuries, his body was shaky, causing him to fall, and the knife in his hand dropped to the side. He scrambled to his feet and ran wildly for his life.

After a few jumps and leaps, he escaped outside the city and fled into the forest, not caring about the pain of branches and thorns scratching him.

He lost track of how far he had run. Initially, he could still hear the shouts of the enemies behind him, which gradually turned into hurried rushing wind sounds. Realizing he had shaken off his pursuers, he felt some relief and slowed his pace. After taking just a few steps, his whole body ached and became weak, as if coming apart, unable to move. His head spun, his vision darkened, and he fainted.

After an unknown amount of time, he regained some consciousness but felt hazy and weak, unable to even open his eyelids.

A day later, Xiao Ke's mind cleared slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes to see a smiling face looking at him attentively.

Xiao Ke didn't know where he was. Glancing around, it seemed to be inside a bamboo hut. He tried to roll over, but waves of pain surged through his entire body.

The person smiled and said, “Xiao Ke, you've finally woken up. Don't move around recklessly.”

Xiao Ke looked at him and, hearing him call his name, studied him closely. A warm feeling spread through him, and he couldn't help but smile, “Xu Feng, is that you?”

This man was one of Xiao Ke's friends from the martial world, named Xu Feng, a wandering doctor, nicknamed Xu the Mad.

Xu Feng smiled with squinted eyes and said, “If it's not me, who else would it be? Don't keep thinking it's Miss Xinyue, haha…”

Xiao Ke was stunned, then burst into laughter. But once he moved, the pain from his wounds made him cry out, stopping his laughter.

The Miss Xinyue Xu Feng mentioned was someone Xiao Ke had met in the capital. Through Miss Xinyue, Xiao Ke met Xu Feng and became close friends. Xu Feng often teased Xiao Ke about Xinyue afterwards. Hearing Xu Feng mention her, Xiao Ke secretly sighed, thinking, “It's been a long time since I've seen Miss Xinyue; I wonder how she's doing?”At this moment, a woman's voice was heard saying, 'Xiao Ke, don't move rashly. Feng Ge, really, when he wakes up, you just chat with him like that. Let him rest properly!'

Xiao Ke saw that this woman was elegant and graceful—it was none other than Xu Feng's wife, Thirteenth Lady—then smiled and said, 'Sister-in-law, it's nothing. Long time no see, you've become even more beautiful and charming!'

Thirteenth Lady felt happy in her heart and scolded him playfully, 'Hah! Only you, Xiao Ke, know how to flatter like this. Since when did you learn to be so slick with words?'

After she went to the outer room, Xiao Ke turned to Xu Feng and said, 'Brother Xu, how come you are here, and how did you save me?'

Xu Feng glanced at Thirteenth Lady's figure in the distance and said, 'I simply make my home wherever I go. But you know how things work out so strangely. The other day, I had an argument with Thirteenth Lady for no reason, then went angrily up the mountain to gather herbs. In the forest, I saw a person lying there. I walked over and my goodness, it was you! You looked like a bloody mess—it scared me out of my wits.'

Xiao Ke sighed quietly.

Xu Feng said, 'Do you know? You were unconscious for four days until today!'

Xiao Ke watched him speak, noting the lively expression on his face, and couldn't help but laugh: 'So under your miraculous medicine, why did I have to lie there for four days? I say, you madman, did you spend every day staring at a beauty, itching with impatience, and using all your thoughts in that way?'

Xu Feng's eyes widened: 'Go! What kind of thoughts are you having? Don't you see how badly you were injured, almost not surviving? You should count yourself lucky to wake up after four days!'

Xiao Ke chuckled: 'Then I guess I really have to thank you properly!'

Xu Feng snorted: 'Don't tell me it's going to be about borrowing money and inviting me for drinks again, right?'

Xiao Ke laughed: 'Don't be so stingy, borrowing doesn't mean not paying back!'

Xu Feng said, 'Do you think I run a bank? When have you ever paid back any money you borrowed from me? No! I really can't understand why Miss Xinyue introduced you to me. What bad luck!'

He spoke with deep disdain, but his face was full of smiles. Xiao Ke also smiled. Even though his wounds hurt to the core, he still felt very happy.

When the wine was served on the table, these two drank as if they hadn't had a drink for eight lifetimes.

Thirteenth Lady kept nagging, saying nothing more than that Xiao Ke hadn't fully healed, and how could he drink? Then she scolded Xu Feng once again.The two of them remained silent, exchanged a smile, and continued to drink and laugh with the east wind. After three cups, Xu finally restrained his laughter and said, 'Xiao Ke, based on what you told me, your situation seems extremely dangerous. These past few days, I've also seen people from the Tianlong Gang searching for you all over the martial world. So you must not act recklessly.'

Xiao Ke felt sorrowful and said, 'But my eldest brother really died unjustly. I must avenge this. The Tianlong Gang can never be destroyed by Liu Jinfeng.'

Xu Feng said, 'But you're not up against just one person; it's the entire Tianlong Gang. So we have to carefully consider this and come up with a plan to capture them in one move.'

Xiao Ke sighed, 'But what can I do alone? Still, I will never give up!'

Xu Feng smiled, 'No, brother, you're not alone. You still have us!'

Xiao Ke looked at him, his heart stirred.

Xu Feng said, 'Since you have matters to settle, how can I, as your brother, just sit by and do nothing? I know you need my help!'

Xiao Ke nodded, tears already warm in his eyes, speechless for a long time. Only after a while did he relax and say with a smile, 'Then does that mean I have to invite you for another drink?'

Xu Feng said, 'Alright, kid, still in the mood to joke?'

Xiao Ke laughed, 'With a friend like you, Xu the Mad, even the worst mood can turn into the best.'

Xu Feng snickered, 'Hehe, this time don't think I'm paying for your invite, listen, I don't do losing trades!'

After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and laughed heartily.

Meanwhile, thirteen girl who was tidying up something glanced at them, couldn't help but chuckle and scold, 'What kind of drunk mischief are you two up to again? Did a monkey just find a watermelon or something that's so funny?'

The two immediately stopped laughing but still had smiles lingering on their faces, mumbling something with bowed heads. Thirteen girl didn't bother to ask.

Xu Feng said, 'Xiao Ke, the enemy is too strong for us to fight head-on, but we can use our wits!'

Use our wits? Xiao Ke looked at him and smiled slightly, knowing that Xu Feng was always clever and resourceful, and remained silently attentive.

Xu Feng picked up the cup in front of him and drank it all at once, picked up a few peanuts, chewed them a few times. The two black tufts of hair under his nose twitched with each bite, looking extremely comical.

Xiao Ke said, 'You talk about using our wits, but how exactly do we use our wits?'Xu Feng slowly said, “There are many ways to achieve a clever victory, but the situation we face has only one solution.”

Xiao Ke smiled faintly. “What solution?”

Xu Feng said, “To capture the bandit, first capture the king!”

Xiao Ke did not ask further.

Xu Feng continued, “Although the current Tianlong Gang is under Liu Jinfeng's control, one thing is certain: not everyone obeys Liu Jinfeng. They merely act compliant because of her tyrannical power. So this actually works in our favor.”

Xiao Ke worried aloud, “But she still has many loyal followers around her, and there is also the current second-in-command, Xue Yintian. He is highly skilled in martial arts and a formidable opponent. Furthermore, Liu Jinfeng comes from a martial arts family, and her secret martial skills are unknown even to me. Capturing Liu Jinfeng in one fell swoop seems harder than climbing to the sky!”

Xu Feng smiled faintly, said nothing, lifted his wine cup to his nose, squinted, and took a few deep, reveling sniffs, his face full of delight.

Xiao Ke's mood darkened. “Moreover, Gongzi Yi from the Wuyou Manor is involved. I fear this matter is far too complicated to predict!”

Only then did Xu Feng open his eyes, drained his cup, and said calmly, “According to what you just described, Gongzi Yi must be colluding with the Tianlong Gang. As for the rest, let's not worry about that for now. But Gongzi Yi is naturally lustful and prides himself on being a ladies' man. Subduing him requires only a strategy of seduction. Therefore, as long as Ggongzi Yi is controlled, the plan to capture the bandit by first capturing the king can be considered underway.”

Xiao Ke asked, “But if we want to capture Liu Jinfeng, we can only act when we are around her. How can we get close to her?”

Xu Feng was silent for a moment, then said, “That shouldn't be a problem. The real issue is, after capturing Liu Jinfeng, what then? Suppose you have subdued Liu Jinfeng, but everyone around you is her ally. What do you do?”

Xiao Ke froze, a chill suddenly running through his heart.

He naturally understood Xu Feng's meaning: a successful plan must allow one to retreat safely, for only then does the action have its true significance.

If everyone around is an enemy, one might still kill Liu Jinfeng in one strike, or the enemy might hesitate, allowing the attack to succeed, or worse, the enemy might form another faction and attack regardless of Liu Jinfeng's fate. In that case, what would one do? How could one retreat safely?This is indeed a very serious problem. Xu Feng said, 'So in order to ensure that you can come out unscathed, I have to find a massive support force for you!' Xiao Ke felt a bit doubtful in his heart, not knowing who he meant by 'massive support force.' But given Xiao Ke's situation, just at a time of misfortune, who would risk the huge danger of offending the Tianlong Gang to help him?
