Chapter 232.2
Afterward, Sword Elder continued his assault, killing all the Money Gang disciples who were present.
Then, he executed several strikes of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, destroying some traces while also leaving new ones.
Satisfied, he then left.
Sword Elder Elder, how did it go? the elders of the Beggar Sect gathered around to ask.
Sword Elder showed off his spoils of war and smiled, Shangguan Hongs head is here; the matter has been successfully concluded!
Thats great, with the Money Gang leader dead, our Beggar Sect is worry-free! Everyone was very excited.
Sword Elder smiled and said, There are many valuable things worth about five to six million taels of silver in the valley! Have someone move these items back for the development funds of the Beggar Sect! I shall return to report my success!
Farewell, Sword Elder Elder! the elders of the Beggar Sect said in unison.
After Sword Elder returned to Great Xia, he displayed the head to Lin Beifan and then continued to learn martial arts by Lin Beifans side, keeping a low profile.
However, the outside world was thrown into great turmoil!
Have you heard? Its said that on a certain evening, a fierce battle took place in the valley where Money Gang was based! The noise was so loud that people within a hundred li could hear it!
I heard too, they say it sounded like thunder, booming nonstop!
Later, many masters rushed over and found the valley completely destroyed! Only a grandmaster-level battle could devastate a valley like that! Who do you think did it?
One of them is definitely the Money Gang leader, Shangguan Hong! The other is uncertain, but some say they found traces of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms at the scene!
Its said that many elders and disciples of the Beggar Sect were seen, as well as the figure of the Beggar Sect leader!
Do you think it was the Beggar Sect who attacked Money Gang?
Very likely! After all, Money Gang had gone too far recently!
Matters involving grandmasters and two major factions were never trivial.
The rivers and lakes were abuzz with various accounts of the incident.
At this time, the Beggar Sect stepped forward, explained, and took responsibility for the matter.
Because Money Gang had gone too far, their leader, Hong Qihai, finally could no longer bear it and led the disciples of the Beggar Sect to attack the headquarters of Money Gang.
As for the Money Gang leader Shangguan Hong, naturally, he was slain by their leader!
The rivers and lakes were once again set ablaze with excitement!
You should know that defeating a Grandmaster is easy, but killing a Grandmaster is extremely difficult!
Its the same even among all other Grandmasters!
To kill a Grandmaster, one must possess far greater strength than the opponent!
A Grandmaster who can kill another Grandmaster quickly is a rare and powerful entity among them, definitely strong enough to be ranked in the top 10!
So, does that mean that the Beggar Sect leader Hong Qihai has already attained the strength of a top 10 Grandmaster?
He wasnt like this the last time he showed up!
Goodness, to have improved so much in just one year!
He wasnt recuperating from injuries; he clearly went into seclusion to cultivate. Maybe he even encountered some rare opportunity!
Everyone started to inquire with the Money Gang to see if the situation was true.
However, the Money Gang fell silent.
Because their leader had indeed died, his head had been taken by someone else, leaving his body incomplete.
Silence is the best response, and gradually everyone began to believe what the Beggar Sect said and couldnt help but sigh.
Shangguan Hong had just become a Grandmaster and then he fell, what a pity!
One must not be too crazy and arrogant, or disaster will follow!
Why would their leader seek revenge if he hadnt completely offended the Beggar Sect to death?
With Shangguan Hong dead, the Money Gang is finished!
Just as everyone expected.
Following that, the Beggar Sect took the initiative to strike, seizing the Money Gangs territory.
The Money Gang kept retreating, not daring to confront them.
As the Beggar Sect advanced, the Money Gang retreated further.
Until at last, the Beggar Sect quickly grew stronger, even more so than at their previous peak. Upon encountering disciples of the Beggar Sect, other factions would greet them with a smile and yield with great respect.
The Money Gang, however, gradually became a third-rate force and fell apart.
Inside the Great Xia imperial palace.
While eating fruit, Yaoyao discussed the matter, sighing and saying, Who would have thought that the Money Gang leader Shangguan Hong had just become a Grandmaster, at the height of his life, and then he suddenly fell! Such a pity!
Lin Beifan also sighed, Indeed! If he hadnt provoked the Beggar Sect, he could have lived a carefree life for a hundred years and been revered by all. But he was too arrogant, he provoked an enemy he shouldnt have. Its both regrettable and despicable! Thats why one must never be arrogant, or there will surely be someone to take you down!
Lin Beifan have you noticed that the world is becoming more and more turbulent and unpredictable?
How so? Lin Beifan blinked.
Yaoyao whispered, Look at these past two years, two Grandmasters have already died! The Emperor of the Great Xue Kingdom and the leader of the Money Gang both had just become Grandmasters when they died!
Only two have died. Is that a lot? Lin Beifan blinked again.
Including the leader of the Beggar Sect, thats only three!
Its a lot!
Yaoyao said excitedly, moving her hands and feet while talking, People cant fathom because they rarely meet one, but Grandmasters are very strong! It used to be that one might or might not be killed in several decades! Now, in just two years to be precise, in just a little over one year, two have died. Dont you find that strange?
Maybe it is a little strange! Lin Beifan agreed.
And in these past few years, many bizarre things have happened in the rivers and lakes! For example, the Beggar Sects actions have become more inscrutable, baffling everyone! And then theres the sudden appearance of the Heavenly Khans tomb, which has fooled everyone
Yaoyao leaned in closer, looked around, and whispered, I feel like theres a powerful dark force stirring the winds and clouds of the world!
Lin Beifan immediately perked up, leaning in and whispering, I feel the same way! Who do you think this dark force is, and what do they want to do?
Yaoyao shook her head: I dont know about that. The other party is hidden too deeply, and no matter how much I search, I cant find anything. There must be some grand scheme behind it, maybe even an intention to overthrow the world order!
How terrifying! Lin Beifan shivered with fear.
Yaoyao glanced over and said irritably, Dont worry, the mastermind behind the scenes has their own ambitions. They definitely wont bother with a small fry like you!
What if they have a lapse in judgment and covet my handsome appearance? Lin Beifan wiped away a bead of sweat.
Narcissist! Shameless! Yaoyao laughed heartily while holding her stomach.
After the laughter subsided, Yaoyao went to the Demon Sect and ordered her subordinates to investigate the mastermind behind the scenes.
Lin Beifan watched her departing figure and narrowed his eyes.
This Yaoyao is getting smarter and smarter!
She has even discovered there is a mastermind and wants to investigate. I cant let her stay!
I cant be merciful anymore!
I must strike first!
Ill find an opportunity to win her over and make her one of us!
Well, thats a happy decision!
