Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Under the veil of night, the two most notorious gangs stood in front of the newly opened store, their faces filled with greed and anticipation.

From what they had gathered from the people, they realized the store had abundant food, enough to last them for a year.

In Dongping City, the most sought-after commodity was food.

Food was so scarce that even those with money could not purchase it, as no merchant was selling it.

Now, an unknown store dared to open and distribute food without any means to defend itself. If they were not calling to be looted, then what?

Holding their weapons, the two gang leaders looked at each other, ready to break into the Celestial Heavenly Store when they heard a slight groan from behind.

Hmm!

They froze for a moment and turned to look back, only to behold half of their men lying in pools of blood.

The gentle cold breeze felt like a sharp sword on their skin, and all the hair on their bodies stood straight.

Their breathing became uneven as they stared at the two strange men behind them.

Yao Meng and Gong Ping had been tasked with protecting the store from any intruders.

Thus, when they discovered the strange movement around the store, they waited patiently for their enemies to get comfortable before they started killing them.

"It seems they've discovered us," Gong Ping said casually.

"I guess so. Your last kill made a slight sound," Yao Meng responded, his eyes locked on the frozen gangs. "Now that they've discovered us, we should stop playing with them and end this charade."

"Agreed." An evil smile appeared on Gong Ping's face.

With that, the two approached the gangs slowly while the gangs took a step back.

"W-Who are you?" the Bull Gang leader asked with a trembling voice.

"Idiot! You came to rob our store, and you're asking who we are?" Yao Ping responded and disappeared from his spot.

When he appeared again, he was right before a frozen young man with a dagger.

The young man did not know what hit him, only for his head to fly off from his neck.

With Yao Ping killing his first target, Gong Ping did not want to be left out and joined the fun. Killing a martial artist was no different from killing an ordinary ant for them.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Gong Ping and Yao Meng moved through the gangs, swinging their swords. Every swing sent an unfortunate soul to the afterlife.

Watching their men fall like dry leaves, the two gang leaders felt their spines drenched in cold sweat.

They thought the owner of the store was going to be easy prey, but who would have expected they had two powerhouses protecting it?

The two gang leaders were merely third-rate martial artists with incomplete techniques.

As third-rate martial artists, they were strong against ordinary people, but against cultivators, they were no different from ordinary people.

Feeling the situation getting out of hand, the leaders looked at each other and shouted.

"Run!"

Without waiting for their men, they scrambled off, using all their strength to escape. Currently, they wish they had more than two legs.

Deep in their hearts, they were praying for those two demons not to come after them. However, from the corner of their eyes, they saw a blinding light approaching at breathtaking speed.

'What sort of attack is this?' they screamed in their hearts.

Realizing they couldn't escape from the blinding light, they stopped and unsheathed their weapons, ready to defend against the sword light.

Unfortunately, the sword's light was beyond their mortal comprehension as it cleaved through their weapons and hit their bodies.

Thud!

The two gang leaders fell to the cold, hard ground, splitting into two equal parts. Their innards gushed out like a broken dam covered in blood.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

From the distance, two light steps approached the two infamous gang leaders and stopped right in front of their corpses.

"I think our strength has increased again," Yao Meng said with a light smile.

"Yes," Gong Ping nodded. "When we return, those fools will be shocked by our strength."

"Haha, I can't wait to see their faces."

The two talked casually and disappeared into the cover of the night. As for the Bull Gang and Untamed Gang, they had long been sent to the afterlife.

Their incomplete bodies lay sprawled on the ground, covered in their own pools of blood.

Slowly, time passed by, and the night was washed away, replaced by the bright rays of the early sun.

The inhabitants of Dongping City welcomed a brand new day. However, today was not like any other day.

What greeted them were the corpses of the Untamed Gang and Bull Gang on the street.

Quickly, the city, just waking up, was thrown into upheaval. Many who did not believe it came to see for themselves.

From their eyes, they could tell the horror the gangs witnessed before their deaths. From their swift deaths, they could tell their enemies were stronger than them.

Inside the Wei Mansion, Wei De's jaw dropped when he heard about the miserable death of the two infamous gangs.

"Do you know who did it?" he asked, his voice raising an octave.

"Young Master, no one knows," his trusted aide said with a hint of fear in his voice. Such a massacre was something he had never witnessed before.

In the span of minutes, more than fifty people were killed without making a sound.

"Young Master, there is a rumor going around the city," he said after thinking for a moment.

"What rumor?"

"Many are saying their deaths are related to the new store."

"How can that be possible?" Wei De shook his head. "I've checked them, but none of them had the aura of a martial artist. Therefore, how could they kill two third-rate martial artists?"

Nodding his head, his aide agreed. He had also checked Su Yen and his men but did not detect the strong aura of an expert from them.

However, looking at the location of the two gangs' deaths, even a fool could guess it had something to do with the newly opened store.

Using the death of the gangs as a message, those in the dark realized the Celestial Heavenly Store was not easy prey; thus, they needed to tread carefully.
