Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Destroying Qu Xia of the Nine Bends

When Song Changming was about to climb over the wall, Liang Chuan Mountain had already led his men through the courtyard gates in person. Crossbow arrows cleared the way, and the first wave of the assault caused significant casualties among the Nine Bends Association members, killing off the key gang leaders who emerged first.

”What’s happening?” Zhu Changyi and others, who were drinking in the inner courtyard, heard the commotion outside and realized something was wrong.

”Brother, it’s the Patrol Armor Bureau, they’ve broken in!” A panicked gang leader rushed in to report.

”What!” Several gang leaders’ faces changed, wine spilling everywhere.

Their somewhat drunken minds felt as if they’d been struck on the head with a stick, immediately sobering up.

”How could this happen!”

”Could it be that Liu Zi wasn’t tight-lipped and said something in jail?” One of the leaders thought of something and immediately spoke up.

”I remember he knows about the Anye Pavilion affair from a year ago.”

Now seeing the Patrol Armor Bureau’s stance of settling accounts, it’s very likely that the secret is out, and the bureau can no longer tolerate their Nine Bends Association.

”Brother, what are we afraid of? Fight them, and at worst, we’ll take the brothers and fight our way out of the city, and join that Tengya Mountain!” One of the leaders, the brawny Fululai, said with a rough voice.

”But, sigh, going to Tengya Mountain is a hard life, unlike staying comfortably in this County City...” Another leader mumbled, reluctant to leave the now flourishing Nine Bends Association.

”Hmph, you might want to stay, but the Patrol Armor Bureau won’t let us!”

”Enough talk, brother, give us a word!” Wu Fei shouted lowly, looking at Zhu Changyi.

”I’ll go see the boss, you all take up arms and face the enemy!” Zhu Changyi rubbed his forehead and spoke in a muffled voice.

”No need, I heard it all.” The inner door pushed open, and a man walked out.

This man had a shiny head wrapped in an old bandage, with a long knife scar on his face running from his forehead to his chin, looking both gruesome and hideous.

A sinister smile appeared on his face.

”Let’s go, everyone. We can’t stay in the city, come with me back to Tengya Mountain. Don’t worry, life over there isn’t hard.”

Saying this, the nine gang leaders had nothing more to say.

In the courtyard, Liang Chuan Mountain was holding the rear. Seeing the team advancing like a hot knife through butter, he felt slightly assured.

Especially with Zhou Sixin who he had invited. It’s undeniable, those coming from the General Department are indeed skilled.

His sword skill might have reached perfection long ago!

Facing enemies, almost none could withstand a single move against him!

This kind of person is like a Stabilizing Needle, and the thirty Golden Patrol Guards he brought were all exceptionally strong, without any weak parts, stronger than their district patrol guards.

In just a moment of their action, there was a scene of blood and gore.

”Lv Gang, you take your men and block the main gate, don’t let the gang members outside rush in, use fire oil if necessary!” Seeing the situation in the courtyard being controlled, Liang Chuan Mountain made an adjustment.

Outside the mansion, ordinary gang members heard the commotion and were clustering more densely on the street, which also needed to be guarded against.

Just then, the inner courtyard gates opened, and a group of fierce men entered the battle, changing the situation once again.

Liang Chuan Mountain’s eyes narrowed.

This group was all nimble and strong, undoubtedly the elite of the Nine Bends Association, including the Nine Bends Star he recognized, led by Zhu Changyi and the other nine leaders.

The appearance of these nine also put considerable pressure on Liang Chuan Mountain.

What surprised him even more was the unfamiliar scar-faced man who confronted Zhou Sixin, the strongest on their side, single-handedly.

Despite Zhou Sixin having just slaughtered dozens of gang leaders, he was held back by this scar-faced man, their fight evenly matched!

In this way, without the strongest combat force, the situation turned unfavorable for the Patrol Armor Bureau.

”This damned Nine Bends Association, truly a tough nut to crack!” Liang Chuan Mountain clenched his fist, eager to fight in person.

But now, being a Director, his status was different. If he died in battle tonight, it would be a matter of great disgrace!

While the Nine Bends Association poured everything into the fierce battle, a series of piercing sounds came from both sides of the rear.

Arrows from crossbows whistled, taking out unguarded gang members from behind.

”There’s an enemy flanking us!”

After several had fallen, the Nine Bends Association members finally reacted, splitting up to their rear.

Seeing Song Changming’s three teams responsible for the flanking attack arriving in time, Liang Chuan Mountain breathed a sigh of relief.

After firing two rounds of arrows, Song Changming quickly scanned the courtyard situation, got a sense of it, then drew his sword and boldly charged the incoming enemies.

”As discussed before, work in pairs, don’t split up, follow Song’s lead and fight!” Jiang Chunzi sternly reminded again.

”Die!” A leader-level gang member, with blood pearls still dripping from his face, his knife-wielding hand crimson, evidently having already slain foes, charged at Song Changming with a strike.

Song Changming remained calm, took a swift step forward, slightly bent, and swept his blade out in a quick, clean movement, like a silver snake darting out to bite its prey.

Though a martial artist too, the gang member didn’t have time to even strike before Song Changming’s blade pierced his throat.

Withdrawing his blade, a spray of blood ensued. Song Changming swiftly pivoted, swung his arm, and landed another mighty strike, cutting down a second gang member with weapon and all, onto the ground.

His movements were fluid, his sword skill flawless as flowing water.

Seeing their Guard Captain being so fierce, it invigorated the accompanying patrol guards, boosting their morale, and with vigorous shouts, they charged at the enemy.

In the chaotic skirmish, with close-range combat, it was not just individual prowess but also the morale and spirit of both sides that mattered.

While a single person’s high spirits might not have a big impact, when many are the same, that collective momentum can overwhelm any enemy before them!

Under Song Changming’s leadership, this suddenly appearing attack squad seemed like a sharp blade, fiercely stabbing into the enemy’s flank.

In no time, over a dozen gang members had fallen at the hands of their patrol guard squad.

The continuous screams from behind further confused and disoriented the front-line gang members, fearing a backstab at any moment that would end them.

”Who’ll take down that young hothead!” Finally unable to stand Song Changming’s rampage behind him, Zhu Changyi shouted.

”I will!” Wu Fei was the first to respond, leading his brothers like wolves and tigers, they turned and charged towards Song Changming’s position.

The prior rejection by Song Changming had already irked him, not to mention Song Changming also held his close associate Wang Liuzi.

No matter the outcome now, the Nine Bends Association would surely no longer be able to stand in Donglai County City.

Before leaving, he swore to take down this presumptuous kid, to satisfy himself!

Patrol Captain? I’m aiming for the Patrol Captain!
