As the sun rises, the golden sands of the sand city reflect a scorching light under the sunlight.
Although it is not yet noon and the scorching sun has just set, the stuffiness in the air is already noticeable.
North of the city.
In the spacious courtyard.
"Huh..."
"Drink... Ha..."
A handsome man in red tights, with his hair casually tied up with a wooden hairpin, moved around with fist shadows flying everywhere. A strong wind blew past, and red leaves fell from the maple tree in the yard.
call…
Close your fist and exhale.
A faint chill rose from the fist.
"Congratulations, my lord, on your great progress in divine power. I wish you to unify Sand City as soon as possible and dominate the northern desert."
On the side, a servant holding a basin of water came up to him, flattering him.
Yan Xiong put his hand into the basin of water, and a cool feeling immediately came over him.
"Is Wang San here?"
He closed his eyes, feeling the coolness, and asked calmly.
"Your Majesty, Hall Master Wang is waiting outside the courtyard! Because you instructed that outsiders are not allowed to approach during the practice, I arranged for him to stay outside."
The servant was called Asan. He used to be a beggar. On a bitterly cold night, he collapsed in front of Yan Xiong's door and was rescued by Yan Xiong. Since then, he became Yan Xiong's closest and most trusted servant.
"Let him in, and then go and invite Hall Master Niu to come as well, and tell him that I have something to discuss with you."
Yan Xiong withdrew his hands, wiped them with a cloth, and explained.
"Yes, I'll go right away."
Ah San slowly retreated with the basin of water.
Under the maple tree, Yan Xiong directed his thoughts in front of his eyes, and an illusory panel that only he could see emerged.
Role Playing System
Host: Yan Xiong
The only character played: Xiong Ba
Role Playing Progress: 10%
Realm: Ninth Grade
Heart Method: Three-point Return to Yuan Qi (Ninth Level)
Martial arts: Heavenly Frost Fist (9th rank), Paiyun Palm (9th rank), Wind God Leg (9th rank), Three-point Divine Finger (9th rank)
"It seems like I have to start that plan. After all this time, my role-playing progress hasn't improved at all."
Yan Xiong narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.
Yan Xiong is not from this world, he is a time traveler with a golden finger.
His golden finger is this role-playing system.
The character he played was the villain Xiong Ba in the famous comic book Feng Yun in his previous life.
After two years of traveling, he was playing the role of Xiongba all the time. Finally, two months ago, his performance progress reached 10%.
After the role-playing progress reached 10%, he directly broke through to the realm of a ninth-grade warrior and became one of the masters of Sand City.
This is a martial arts world where warriors can destroy the world.
Warriors in the world are divided into nine ranks, with the lowest rank among the nine and the strongest rank.
A first-class warrior can fly into the sky and hide underground, and his existence can be compared to that of an immortal.
The ninth-grade warrior is also the entry-grade warrior.
Once a martial artist has reached a certain level and mastered the true energy, he or she can deliver a force of over a thousand pounds with each punch or move.
Therefore, in this world, warriors control everything. Power, money, and beauty are all in the hands of warriors.
Because martial arts are popular, as far as Yan Xiong knows, there seems to be no such thing as a dynasty in this world, only gangs, sects, and aristocratic families.
Powerful sects and families control many cities, and the controllers of the cities must pay a certain amount of tribute to these gangs and families every year.
The Sand City is located in the north of the Western Desert, close to the endless sea of sand. It is a city that cannot be any smaller and is affiliated with the Sand Sea Sect.
Here, let alone warriors of the sixth or seventh rank, even those of the ninth rank can be considered masters in this city.
Just like the Chihuo Gang where Yan Xiong is, only the gang leader Huang Song and the deputy gang leader Shen Xu are ninth-rank warriors in the entire gang, but they also occupy a large area in the north city.
It can be said that in Sand City, as long as you break into the ninth level, you will become a well-known big shot.
However, after Yan Xiong broke into the ninth rank, he did not make it public but stayed in his own yard.
It’s not that he doesn’t care about fame and fortune. On the contrary, because he plays a role in the system, he values power, fame and fortune more than ordinary people.
The reason why he has not announced it to the outside world until now is that he is preparing a plan.
…
Into the courtyard, a thin man with crooked eyes walked in.
This is Wang San, the leader of the Qingmu Hall of the Red Fire Gang.
"Greetings, my Lord!"
As soon as he entered the door, Wang San bowed.
After Yan Xiong came to this world, he had an adventure and obtained a recipe for a heart-eating poison.
Wang San was one of the people who was forced by him to take the heart-eating poison.
Heart-eating poison can be called a poison or a Gu. It is made by mixing dozens of poisons. The stronger the poison, the more toxic it is.
The person who takes it must take the antidote prepared by Yan Xiong every 49 days, otherwise the poison will take effect and the whole body will fester from the inside out, causing death.
However, due to his limited strength, Yan Xiong has only been able to refine a heart-eating poison that can kill those below the ninth level.
Moreover, because there are very few poisonous substances in Sand City, he has only refined three Heart-Eating Poison Pills so far. One was used on Wang San, and the other two were used on two hall masters of other gangs.
"How's the investigation going on?"
Yan Xiong looked up at the sky, and Wang San could only see his back.
"My Lord, I have already found out that Huang Song will go to Cuiyun Tower to listen to music tonight. As for Shen Xu, a batch of goods in the gang was stolen by the Black Sand Bandits, and he is rushing to the Black Sand Village!"
Wang San responded in a low voice.
"Okay, these two guys are finally separated. Notify everyone and take action tonight!"
Yan Xiong waved his sleeves, turned to Wang San and gave instructions.
"yes… "
Wang San responded.
"It's finally time to start. I wonder how much my role-playing progress will increase after this incident!"
Looking at Wang San's departing back, Yan Xiong's mouth curled up, and he was full of expectations for the increased performance progress after this plan.
Not long after Wang San left, Niu Kui, another leader of the Chihuo Gang, arrived.
The Chihuo Gang has three halls, and Wang San, Yan Xiong and Niu Kui are the masters of these three halls.
It can be said that except for the Law Enforcement Hall under the gang leader and the caravan under the deputy gang leader, the entire Chihuo Gang has been hollowed out by Yan Xiong.
"Brother Yan, did you ask me to come here to discuss something?"
Niu Kui is the only senior executive in Yan Xiong's privately managed force who has not taken poison.
The two were good brothers when they were not yet hall masters. Before Yan Xiong traveled through time, his predecessor even blocked a knife for Niu Kui.
The relationship between the two is the kind of life-and-death relationship.
Therefore, even without the heart-eating poison, Niu Kui would listen to Yan Xiong.
In the room
Niu Kui was an impatient man and he started asking questions as soon as he sat down.
Niu Kui is a burly man, about two meters tall, with a pair of meteor hammers wrapped around his waist.
He was born with great strength, and the martial arts he practiced increased his strength. Although he was not yet a ninth-rank warrior, he was able to fight against a ninth-rank warrior with his strength.
In Yan Xiong's plan, he can play a big role.
"Aniu, I want to get rid of Huang Song tonight. If we take action, the Three Wolf Gang will definitely get the news. If they just sit back and watch the fight, that's fine. But if they want to intervene, it will depend on you and your brothers in the Thunder Hall."
Sitting opposite Niu Kui, Yan Xiong poured him a cup of tea and explained in a soft voice.
The Three Wolf Gang is one of the four major gangs in Sand City. Its territory is adjacent to that of the Red Fire Gang. The two gangs often clash over territory and are sworn enemies of the Red Fire Gang.
"Are you going to do it?"
"That's great, Brother Yan, don't worry, I will definitely help you stop the Three Wolf Gang."
"But if we kill Huang Song, what about the Li family? Huang Song is Li Shenzhou's son-in-law, he will definitely not ignore it!"
Niu Kui agreed to Yan Xiong's arrangement without any hesitation, but he also expressed his concerns.
Although Niu Kui looked tall and strong and a rough man, he was very thoughtful and hit the key point immediately.
Although there are many gangs in Sand City, the real ruler is the Li family.
Li Shenzhou, the head of the Li family, is a disciple of the Shahai Sect, one of the eight major sects in the northern part of the Western Desert. He is invincible in Sand City with his Yellow Sand Sword Skills and is the true ruler of Sand City.
The gangs in Sand City must pay tribute every year, otherwise the Li family will purge the gangs that do not pay.
Huang Song is the husband of Li Shenzhou's youngest daughter.
If the son-in-law is killed, the father-in-law will definitely be angry. This is common sense.
"You don't have to worry about this. Since I dare to take action, I am naturally prepared. You don't have to worry about Li Shenzhou."
As he spoke, Yan Xiong unconsciously reached into his arms.
In his arms was a token, a token that would make people surprised and happy when they saw it.
The Seven Killings Tower is a killer organization that everyone in the underworld talks about with fear.
This building has a rule that three immortal war orders will be released into the martial arts world every year.
With this token, Qishalou can make one attack for free, and will not stop until the target is killed.
The token in Yan Xiong's arms is the legendary immortal token.
This was something he obtained along with the heart-eating poison.
Originally, he didn't know that this token was the Immortal Perseverance Token, until he saw the information about the Seven Killings Tower in a miscellaneous book in the gang, and then he knew that this was the precious Immortal Perseverance Token.
The value of the Immortal Fighting Order is self-evident. It is said that with this order, even a third-rank master can be summoned.
To be honest, it is such a waste to use it against Li Shenzhou, an eighth-rank warrior.
However, Yan Xiong still decided to use it.
Li Shenzhou is an eighth-rank warrior. With his current 10% performance progress, he will definitely not be a match for the opponent.
The saying that one cannot exceed one's grade is definitely not just talk.
Of course, poisoning and sneak attacks are another matter.
But, if we want to poison someone, where can we find the poison that can kill an eighth-grade warrior
As for a sneak attack, the risk is too great.
As I said, the level cannot be crossed. It is too difficult for a ninth-grade person to sneak attack an eighth-grade person successfully.
Unless they are killers who specialize in assassinations.
But Yan Xiong is not an assassin, and his martial arts are not suitable for this job, so this method is not advisable.
Yan Xiong has studied it and realized that if he wants to improve his performance as Xiongba, it would be impossible to do so by learning how to behave like Xiongba.
As we all know, Xiongba's lifelong pursuit is to dominate the world and unify the martial arts world.
Therefore, if you want to improve your acting skills.
The only way is to create a gang and follow the old path of dominating the world.
And Shacheng is Li Shenzhou's territory. If he wants to unify Shacheng, he has to get rid of this old guy.
Since there is no way around it, then we have no choice but to face it.
But I can't defeat him.
what to do
Naturally, I can only use this token.
"Okay, since you have considered this, Brother Yan, I feel relieved. I will go back and prepare now."
Niu Kui grinned, drank the tea on the table in one gulp, then stood up and left.
