Chapter 339 - Gang Xiong’s Death Is So Tragic
Chapter 339: Gang Xiong’s Death Is So Tragic
“Young Master, you…”
Old Wu didn’t know what to say to that. They all saw how furious Gang Xiong was and even they were shocked by Gang Xiong’s gaze.
Maybe one could say that those eyes weren’t that of a human, instead, it was a furious beast.
Lin Fan smiled really calmly and didn’t care about this matter at all. Maybe to him even if Gang Xiong was so furious that he caused the world around him to collapse, it didn’t have anything to do to him.
Only two things would happen.
He either had the balls to attack him.
Or, he pent up all the anger and left.
“Lin Wanyi, your son is just too much.” Zhu Daoshen grumbled, he couldn’t take it anymore. Zhu Daoshen grumbled. He originally thought that Gang Xiong was someone who couldn’t suppress the rage in his heart, but now he knew that no one would even be able to suppress it unless they had problems in their head.
“Hahaha, too much? The Alliance is as stupid as pigs, so who can you blame? Don’t even think about breaking through You City. As for you all remaining here, I can ensure that you all will be wiped out.” Lin Wanyi hollered in rage.
He shouted in his heart.
Good son, well done.
But his gaze towards Lin Fan spread a message like he was saying, “You unfilial kid, you are finished when you go back.”
As expected, like what Lin Fan imagined, Father was not someone who was good at expressing his feelings. Was it so hard to admit that his son was strong?
“The chance is here.”
Zhu Shen saw that Gang Xiong was stunned and knew that his chance to attack had came. He waved his arms and a mystical power wrapped around Zhu Shen’s machete.
This power was really foreign to Lin Fan.
If he had to describe it, maybe it was the power of the Dao.
At that moment, Zhu Shen hacked down and the area around turned grey. It was like a light had turned the originally clear sky murky.
Shocking, it was really shocking.
“This power is so terrifying.” Lin Fan looked on expressionlessly and he had already sensed how strong that power was.
No wonder he couldn’t beat Alliance generals as there was a gap in their powers.
Gang Xiong who was stunned and furious was shocked when he felt that power. He raised his head and saw that blade slashing around him, it had already sealed off all paths that he could take.
“Damn.”
Gang Xiong roared and took it head-on.
Honglong!
His roar echoed throughout the land.
“Ah!” An eye-catching glow wrapped around Zhu Shen’s blade and Gang Xiong blocked it bareheaded. He held on, “You dog, take your sh*t hands away and let me slice you up.”
He even dared to say such shameless words. If he took his hands away, then he would die.
Anyone with a brain knew what he should have done.
Terrifying shockwaves spread out with the two of them at the center. The surrounding space started to twist.
“Is the combat strength of someone who cultivated the body so terrifying?” Old Wu muttered to himself. He knew that Gang Xiong trained the physical body but this was just too terrifying.
Zhu Shen’s strongest attack caught him off guard, but he could still block it. Although he was losing out, there wasn’t any danger at all.
Lin Fan frowned. The storm that formed from the attacks was one that no one could interfere in.
He paid close attention as though any slight error could result in him losing his life.
Suddenly!
A sense of danger struck him.
He looked forwards and saw a devilish-looking, giant thing appear. It gave off a feeling of high-tech.
A cannon?
Although he didn’t know exactly what it was, the Alliance members were injecting something in.
“Take a look, what is that?” Lin Fan reminded everyone.
The You City experts who were fighting saw the item and were shocked, “You City Lin that is Alliance’s weapon. It can shoot out a light pillar that is really strong, it can even kill Domain realm experts.”
“Eh?” Lin Fan knew that Alliance’s technology standards were high, but he didn’t expect it to be so high.
However, if they had such weapons, then they didn’t need to use people to attack. They just needed a few hundred or thousand and they could fire at the same time, destroying everything.
Based on the current situation, maybe it required so much energy, such that they couldn’t fire so many times.
It wasn’t the time to think about all of this.
He sensed danger.
The cannon was aimed at him.
Damn!
Who did he even offend? Why were they aiming at him?
What about the others?
Old Wu blocked in front of him, “Young Master, leave. You can’t stay here.”
“What do you mean?” Lin Fan didn’t understand.
Old Wu said solemnly, “I experienced the weapon before. Its range is huge and although I don’t know whether or not I can block it, it is best you leave this place.”
In the distance, the tech members injected more energy and their faces looked really vicious.
“That damn fellow! Who asked you to shower us in sh*t? We will kill you with the cannon.” They didn’t choose any other target but aimed right for Lin Fan.
Lin Fan didn’t leave.
Refresh.
Bug Controlling Technique’s True Essence spread out.
He crazily accumulated, gathering all the bugs together.
With his True Essence buffing them, they started to mutate and were several times stronger than before.
“Charge.”
Numerous bugs dug about at the depths of the ground and the dirt wasn’t even like tofu to them.
The tech members controlling the weapons were really young, around 30-40 years old. They cursed out while managing the weapon.
Damn!
Die!
Damn, I want you to to be obliterated without even a corpse remaining.
On the control platform, the energy indicator started to beep.
“It is full, charging is complete.”
“Okay, just aim at that fellow.”
The tech members were really excited. This was the weapon they developed. At the same time, they wanted to prove to those cultivators that technology could destroy them.
“Fire.” The tech members hollered and pressed down the weapon.
A buzzing sound spread out.
A bright light ball floated at the mouth of the cannon like it was attracting many particles over.
Honglong!
A light pillar shot out. It was really quick like it had exceeded the speed of sound, no… it was even faster than that such that people couldn’t even react at all.
Suddenly, the ground collapsed.
“Aiyo, damn it!”
Someone exclaimed.
The foot of the cannon wasn’t stable and sunk down. The mouth of the cannon slanted and the trajectory changed, missing its mark.
Some Alliance members were behind and looked around. Their battle with the natives was too intense, so they retreated and didn’t continue.
They were just waiting for the result of the generals’ battles.
Instantly, they sensed that something was wrong in the space behind his body.
He turned around and was shocked.
“Damn!”
The light pillar covered them, but there was no reaction.
The tech members who sunk to the ground climbed up and looked into the distance. Their eyes opened wide and faces were ashen white, “No…”
“Lin Wanyi, we won’t lose this battle. You will pay the bill for not accepting our offer.” Zhu Daoshen said.
Lin Wanyi didn’t know paying the bill meant. Maybe these were words that the Alliance dogs always used. “Scoff, you won’t lose? Look at your current situation; you lost far more than we did.”
They suffered heavy losses in this battle.
But the losses on the Alliance’s side were the most terrifying. You City sacrificed many experts, but they were people who were prepared to die.
This wasn’t their fate but it was their choice.
Since they chose to remain in You City, they were prepared for this to happen.
“There is no point in talking more. Lin Wanyi, today I will fight you to the death and see how long you will be able to last.” Zhu Daoshen hollered in rage.
He was much older than Lin Wanyi and he knew that Lin Wanyi was the top expert among the natives and one of those with the most talent. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to fight him to a standstill even though their ages were so far apart.
If he gave him time…
Zhu Daoshen didn’t think that he could restrict him.
An overpowered person didn’t need to reason.
Lin Wanyi was one of those unreasonable people.
Suddenly, Zhu Daoshen frowned and felt that something was off. He noticed that Lin Wanyi was smiling evilly. No, something must have been wrong.
Behind!
Zhu Daoshen turned around and slapped, but when he saw the light pillar, he was shocked and dodged it right away.
Honglong!
The light pillar shot into the air, drawing out a long tail.
Zi Zi!
The sound of barbecue!
He lowered his head and his entire right arm was covered in black smoking dots. He dodged quickly, but he was still a little slower.
He clenched his fingers and his arm was wrapped in light, instantly recovering.
Not good!
He realized that Lin Wanyi had disappeared and when he appeared once more, his halberd pierced someone.
That person was General Gang Xiong.
Gululu!
Gang Xiong wasn’t dead, but he was spitting blood from his mouth. His eyes were opened wide like he didn’t expect this to happen.
For people like Lin Wanyi and Zhu Daoshen, any mistake would cause an unsalvageable outcome.
Gang Xiong was really unlucky.
He fought against Zhu Shen and was about to have a chance to counter, but suddenly a light pillar swept him. When he reacted, he realized that his chest was pierced.
He looked at the person and noticed that it was Lin Wanyi.
He knew that he was finished.
If it was another general, he might have been able to live. But he had no chance at all if it was Lin Wanyi.
“Hahaha, General Zhu, you were careless. Your Alliance really doesn’t want you to win.” Lin Wanyi smiled. Who knew that the Alliance would actually help them? That was really unexpected.
Zhu Daoshen’s face was extremely ugly. It was so dark.
“Lin Wanyi, release Gang Xiong.” Zhu Daoshen hollered.
Lin Wanyi smiled and then he retracted his smile. His arm shook and the halberd instantly ripped Gang Xiong apart. He was totally dead.
“No…” Zhu Daoshen cried his heart and lungs out.
Lin Wanyi stabbed the halberd to the ground, his voice was like thunder, “Alliance listen up. Your 6th general has died today and if anyone is bold enough, you will be killed too.”
The aura that the word ‘killed’ formed was really terrifying.
The Alliance members’ minds went blank. It was so terrifying, it was really too terrifying.
These were the natives that the Alliance Headquarters wanted to kill?
Gang Xiong, the strongest land general in Alliance died here.
Who would believe that?
If one hadn’t personally witnessed it, one wouldn’t have dared to believe it.
Lin Wanyi was like a war god standing high above. His hair fluttered in the wind and only one word could describe him: handsome.
The only thing was that he was uncultured and he lacked basic education.
But this didn’t affect his aura; as long as one was strong, the aura one gave out would naturally be strong.
Lin Fan thought back to what Lu Xun said.
When one had money, one would have 90% less problems. One’s intelligence and ability to get girls would also greatly increase.
But the key was that Lu Xun didn’t say where the money was.
His father was just like that now.
The battlefield was silent and a little suppressed. The morale of the Alliance members were low. They didn’t imagine that they would lose 2 generals in one battle. Especially with General Zhu restricting Lin Wanyi, who would believe that this could happen?
No one dared to believe it.
Shua!
Zhu Daoshen’s looked behind coldly in the direction of the tech members.
They were all really stunned and till now they didn’t understand what had happened.
Why had such a thing occurred?
They sensed the furious gazes and looked up. As expected, it was General Zhu.
They wanted to argue for themselves that they were innocent and hadn’t done it on purpose. The ground wasn’t hard enough and collapsed, so how could they be blamed?
General Zhu’s lips moved.
Others couldn’t hear it.
But it was like thunder in their minds.
“Wait to be executed by the Alliance.”
Honglong!
The tech members fell to the ground and bean-sized sweat beads rolled down. Since even General Zhu said that, then they were pretty much dead.
At that moment, Lin Fan controlled the bugs that slowly merged together and became stronger and stronger. It then pounced at the cannon and covered it, forming a ball which rolled over towards them.
“What?” The research members panicked. Someone was boldly stealing from right in front of them.
Suddenly, someone shouted.
“General, he did it. It was him. It had nothing to do with us.”
The Alliance members saw the rolling black ball and shouted, “Stop it.”
Lin Fan obviously wouldn’t let them. He had unlimited amounts of True Essence.
Numerous bugs broke off from the black ball. These bugs flew into the air without any fear of death at all and formed into many different things.
Scythe, fist, etc.
But in the eyes of the experts, bugs were weak and could be crushed to death without much difficulty.
When Zhu Daoshen saw these scenes, he didn’t block at all. He looked at Lin Wanyi in rage.
To him, those stupid weapons would only kill their own people.
If he didn’t dodge, Lin Wanyi wouldn’t have a chance to kill General Gang Xiong.
“Lin Wanyi listen up, I will never let you off in my entire life.” Zhu Daoshen said coldly.
Lin Wanyi gave out a smile of disdain, “You can try, I will wait for you.”
Six generals.
They were six nine-star generals.
That was because they didn’t expect Lin Wanyi to be so bold to counter-attack. The last two shouldn’t have died, especially General Gang Xiong.
His sacrifice was a huge blow for the Alliance.
It was just too difficult for there to be another general like him.
“It’s here.” Lin Fan smiled. He was really curious about their weapon and it was worth studying. Although people tried to stop him, luckily they didn’t succeed.
If Zhu Daoshen or the other generals tried to block, then he might not have gotten the item so easily. It might have even been destroyed.
He didn’t expect that Zhu Daoshen and the others didn’t stop him.
Was it because they were furious about what had happened?
That was possible.
“Retreat.” Zhu Daoshen raised his hand and told the Alliance members to retreat.
They came aggressively but left like dogs without a home.
Old Wu exclaimed, “This battle was much more dangerous, luckily it was a big win.”
It was indeed really dangerous.
There were many times that his life was in danger, but they were resolved one by one. This might have been because their luck was really good.
“My machete.” Zhu Shen wanted to cry, but no tears came out. His machete was so broken and it shouldn’t have been like this. However, there was nothing he could do as the enemy he fought was really strong.
“Old Zhang, this is your fault. If you weren’t careless, then my machete wouldn’t have become like this.”
Zhang Sheng’s eyes opened wide and his mouth was agape as he looked at Zhu Shen, “Scram.”
Damn!
Did they really think he was easy to bully?
What did this have to do with him?
Gang Xiong wasn’t his opponent, he was theirs.
“Father, I did well, right?” Lin Fan smiled and asked to be praised.
Lin Wanyi’s face was cold, “Go back and I will talk to you.”
His tone was not friendly.
Aiyo, what did he do? He didn’t make him angry, right?
Forget it, this battle was such a huge win and he would continue to increase his stats when he went back.
Lin Fan didn’t leave and listened as Old Wu and the others reported the situation.
He listened on sneakily. Based on the situation, the losses would be little, there shouldn’t have been many who died.
“Old Master, we lost 8 Domain Realm experts, 48 Yin Yang Realm, 31 Five Element Realm, 53 Void Realm, and we haven’t gotten the tally for God Essence Realm people yet. The number may have surpassed 100.” Old Wu said solemnly.
Although this was not as bad as previous battles, no matter what, he was familiar with the people who died.
They were old friends from You City who he had known for 20 odd years.
“Note down their names and bury them.” Lin Wanyi said solemnly.
“Yes.” Old Wu replied, bringing people to clean up the battlefield.
Lin Fan watched as his father left and realized that his aura was a little off. It was like it was giving off a dangerous signal like someone was about to experience some bad luck.
Lin Wanyi stood there and sent off the dead. Their deaths weren’t worth it, but they were meaningful. More familiar faces disappeared from their lives.
….
Alliance.
It was totally silent. No one spoke and no one dared to speak.
The tech research members lowered their heads and didn’t dare to look at one another.
They had caused a huge error.
Hurting General Zhu was a small matter but they did kill many Alliance experts.
Many of them looked at the tech members in rage. If it wasn’t for them, that wouldn’t have happened. Their error had resulted in huge losses.
Even such a strong expert like General Gang Xiong fell to them.
Apart from Zhu Daoshen, the other 11 generals didn’t say anything. The rage in their hearts wasn’t any less than anyone else’s.
“Damn, it is glorious to be killed by natives, but it is so frustrating to die to one of your own.”
A general hollered in rage.
He spoke aloud everyone else’s thoughts.
This was indeed the case.
If they died to the natives they might not have been so angry. That rage would have instead turned into power.
At that moment, these tech members were dragged out.
“General, let us leave. It really doesn’t concern us. That native was the one who did it.” The research member who controlled the particle cannon was already crying.
They originally thought that they were at fault.
But then they realized that that wasn’t the case.
That native did it and it had nothing to do with them.
“Shut up.”
Zhu Daoshen hollered, his gaze was dark and sunken, “Your actions have brought us huge losses. You all have to be punished, otherwise, the masses won’t accept it.”
“Ah!”
The tech research members were filled in terror. It was over. They were finished. He was obviously using them to vent his anger.
“General Zhu, we are members of the Alliance Tech Division. You have no right to decide our life and death.” A research member said fiercely. His position there was slightly higher and he was a research genius.
He knew that Zhu Daoshen wanted them to die, so there wasn’t much he could say. Why not just try it out?
Puchi!
Suddenly, the research member covered his neck and a river of blood flowed down his fingers.
These scenes shocked everyone.
The research members who were kneeling on the ground looked at Zhu Daoshen in fear. Someone raised their trembling fingers like they wanted to question how he dared to do that. But when they were about to say those words, they swallowed them down their throats.
Zhu Daoshen said, “I don’t have to explain how he died.”
Everyone understood.
Anyone dying now would just be dying for nothing.
When the situation was reported to the headquarters, it caused a huge uproar.
Two nine-star generals died in that battle?
What did he say?
They didn’t understand.
The strongest land general Gang Xiong had died.
After learning of the situation, no one dared to believe it. No one chose to believe it.
The Alliance Tech Division people felt slightly awkward as it was their fault.
However, they couldn’t take the blame at all.
This would be suspecting and looking down on what they researched. The particle cannon was also snatched by the native and that infuriated the headquarters.
The Alliance Headquarters had to get rid of Lin Wanyi’s name.
But something more terrifying happened.
What happened at You City spread to the commoners and it had a big impact.
Even if the Alliance Headquarters wanted to control the spread, it was too late.
Commoners started to suspect and fear the war matters in all the streets of Alliance.
At the same time, there were some in Alliance who wanted peace.
They hoped that they could coexist peacefully with those of the Rich Land.
But at that time, there were many who wanted to fight, so their voices were suppressed.
Especially when they took down Maigu City, they excited everyone who wanted war and they felt like victory was theirs.
But now.
The loss at You City was a breakthrough.
There were many calls for peace and no more increases in the number of casualties.
