This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!

Chapter 125: Chapter 105 Clash of Fire

Outside Qingyuan Fist Village, Cheng Bi from the Inspection Bureau was waiting with his people at the main gate.

The Inspection Bureau dealt with intelligence work and didn’t require exceptional martial skills. Cheng Bi was one of the few martial master-level experts in the Inspection Bureau, which is why he was highly valued by Gu Zhenhui.

He was waiting outside Qingyuan Fist Village per Gu Zhenhui’s instructions, hoping to meet the Big Leader and connect with her on Gu Zhenhui’s behalf.

A moment later, a man approached Cheng Bi.

Cheng Bi recognized him. He was a martial master from Qingyuan Fist Village, the “Golden-breaking Hand” Xiang Du.

“Go back. The Big Leader doesn’t want to see you.”

Xiang Du’s words to Cheng Bi were straightforward.

Cheng Bi’s expression grew cold as he stared at Xiang Du, “You might be mistaken. It’s not ME wanting to see the Big Leader, it’s the Chief who wants to meet her!”

“It’s all the same. Go back.”

Xiang Du was unapologetically blunt.

Fury burned in Cheng Bi’s eyes. He lifted his head, took a deep look at the Qingyuan Fist Village’s signboard, and swiftly turned to leave.

“My lord, I heard that this Big Leader recently injured Yan Shouzun from the Zhi Ge Court. Is it because of this that she dares to be so arrogant?”

An accompanying subordinate caught up to Cheng Bi and spoke in a low voice.

Cheng Bi’s face was somber:

“These lawless thugs will all be caught in one fell swoop someday!”

He quickly reported the incident to Gu Zhenhui.

In the Chief’s office, upon receiving Cheng Bi’s report, Gu Zhenhui sighed with regret:

“What a pity, such a useful weapon cannot be wielded by me.”

If Qingyuan Fist Village was willing to join forces, he was ready to battle the Tiger Saber Gang today!

With the Master being publicly killed, the Tiger Saber Gang’s morale would surely plummet.

With many of their elite dead or injured, the Tiger Saber Gang’s strength had also been damaged.

Moreover, with Yan Yichen from the Zhi Ge Court injured, the Tiger Saber Gang’s reinforcements faced difficulties too.

Thus, Gu Zhenhui believed this was an excellent opportunity. He decisively deployed the City Guard Army to seize this chance.

This battle would not completely annihilate the Tiger Saber Gang but would at least further weaken their powers and dampen their arrogance!

“My Lord, the City Guard Army has already exchanged fire with the Tiger Saber Gang’s men.”

Right then, a secretary entered the office to report to Gu Zhenhui:

“Deputy Chief Tan, several directors from the Internal Affairs Office are calling to ask why the City Guard Army has been suddenly deployed. There are many civilian casualties in Wuguang District; they’re demanding an immediate ceasefire from the City Guard Army.”

“Heh.”

Gu Zhenhui chuckled coldly, “Has the Inspection Bureau reacted yet?”

The secretary shook his head: “Not yet.”

“Reply to everyone who comes questioning—someone in the city is using hand grenades and rifles; such dangerous elements must be eliminated immediately. If something happens to Xing City, who will take responsibility?”

“Yes!”

“Have the Inspection Bureau’s people support the City Guard Army, tell them to strike hard without holding back!”

Even without Qingyuan Fist Village’s help, Gu Zhenhui was determined to fight today.

As for the civilian casualties in Wuguang District, he didn’t care at all.

Some sacrifice was inevitable for ultimate victory.

“Yes!”

The secretary turned and left.

Gu Zhenhui stood up, walked to the window, and looked down on the streets below with an intense gaze.

…

In Wuguang District, near the north of the main street.

The reserve forces dispatched earlier by Zhang Mingze had now all arrived.

But these men, who failed to encircle the Green-faced Ghost, had received news of Zhang Mingze’s death.

Left with no choice, the people began to tidy up the battleground and prepare to withdraw, only to encounter the arriving City Guard Army.

The City Guard Army demanded, with strict authority, that the Tiger Saber Gang members lay down their weapons and intended to arrest everyone.

The Tiger Saber Gang refused, and the City Guard Army members promptly took action!

Both parties initiated a massive skirmish on the streets and alleys!

In total, the Tiger Saber Gang had deployed over four hundred elite members as a reserve force at Zhang Mingze’s disposal.

These four hundred individuals were all equipped with anti-stabbing clothes and blades, half had rifles, and the other half had powerful crossbows!

Two martial masters led this team with over forty martial artists in the Body Breaking Stage as their core. Moreover, they were all clad in heavy armor with at least First Level protective clothing underneath.

This was the strength of the Tiger Saber Gang!

If this external reserve force had not been withdrawn, and Zhang Mingze had called them all to defend the convoy’s vicinity, then Li Fei, even with his “Blood Demon State,” would not have been able to breach their defenses.

Now, this force had clashed with more than two hundred members of the City Guard Army!

On the streets, Wei Ge of the City Guard Army, clad in heavy armor, wielding a massive Straight Slash Blade, charged ahead, braving the dense hail of bullets.

Separated by less than one hundred meters, his heavy armor couldn’t stop bullets, but beneath the heavy armor, he wore Third Level Protective Clothing, which combined, was enough to stop rifle bullets.

Wei Ge’s speed was fast. When he was less than thirty meters from those Tiger Saber Gang members shooting at him, the Straight Slash Blade in his hand suddenly lit up with a dark gleam.

The next second, a tremendous suction force was released from his blade, and the guns and weapons in the Tiger Saber Gang members’ hands were pulled out of their grasp, flying towards Wei Ge!

Wei Ge’s Implant was a “Magnetic Corner” of the Second Grade lower tier, which is an Earth Attribute Implant, and one of its extraordinary abilities was to generate a powerful magnetic attraction to metals.

After entering the Qi Change Middle Stage, Wei Ge mastered the Earth Magnetic Force, allowing him to precisely control any metal object within a thirty-meter radius that he wished to attract!

After disarming the Tiger Saber Gang members with one move, Wei Ge activated the Earth Magnetic Force again. A dozen members of the Tiger Saber Gang were forcibly pulled towards him, helplessly flying at him.

These men were all wearing Anti-stabbing Clothes, which were also metallic objects.

Watching the Tiger Saber Gang members flying towards him, a bloodthirsty glint appeared in Wei Ge’s eyes.

He held the blade with both hands, stepping and turning his body, and unleashed a horizontal slash.

The next second, a black crescent appeared.

When the crescent vanished, the heads of a dozen Tiger Saber Gang members had hit the ground!

The morale of the remaining Tiger Saber Gang members was instantly shattered, and they turned to run away.

“Hahahaha—”

Wei Ge laughed wildly as he chased after them, using the Earth Magnetic Force to forcibly pull these individuals back to decapitate them with the blade in his hands.

He turned to look at the left, where several members of the Tiger Saber Gang had hidden inside a grocery store.

Inside the shop, there were not only Tiger Saber Gang members but also the shop owner, the clerks, and seven or eight tourists who were shopping in the area.

“Sir!”

The City Guard Army officers, guns in hand, had caught up from behind.

Wei Ge pointed at the grocery store, without any hesitation he ordered, “Fire!”

So over twenty members of the City Guard Army aimed their Tiger Rifles at that grocery store, and in the desperate eyes of those inside, they pulled the trigger.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!—

After a burst of gunfire, everyone inside was dead.

“Kill—”

Without looking back, Wei Ge led his team onwards to attack the next target.

The Tiger Saber Gang had twice the number of people compared to the City Guard Army, but Zhang Mingze’s death had greatly reduced their morale and caused discord. Coupled with a smaller number of experts and the Inspection Bureau’s undercover agents taking cold shots from the shadows, the Tiger Saber Gang was actually at a disadvantage.

By this time, Wei Ge bravely led from the front, unstoppable wherever he went, breaking through the Tiger Saber Gang’s defenses at an extremely fast pace!

If Zhang Mingze were still alive to coordinate and tighten the Tiger Saber Gang’s forces, they could still have fought the City Guard Army. But now, without Zhang Mingze, the few hundred members of the Tiger Saber Gang were scattered and soon beaten back step by step.

Inside a tea house, Yan Yichen led the masters of the Zhi Ge Court back to this place.

“Sir, the City Guard Army is launching an attack on the Tiger Saber Gang. Should we step in and help?”

The pale-faced Hong Jing approached Yan Yichen and asked.

He was badly injured in the previous assassination attempt on Shangguan Xiao, covered in burns all over his body, appearing very ragged.

“No need, everyone stand by here.”

Yan Yichen replied without turning his head as he looked out the window.

Hong Jing was anxious upon hearing this, “But sir, there’s Wei Ge on the City Guard Army’s side. If no one restrains him, the Tiger Saber Gang might not stand a chance!”

Yan Yichen put down his tea cup, turned around, and stared at this man who had been nurtured by the Tiger Saber Gang to become a formal martial master.

His gaze carried immense pressure, making Hong Jing’s face paler.

After a moment, Yan Yichen slowly asked,

“I’ve been wondering, are you my subordinate, or Yu Hu’s?”

This question was asked in a calm and ordinary tone, seemingly just a routine inquiry.

However, Hong Jing’s heart was racing, sensing great danger!

He quickly bowed to Yan Yichen,

“I naturally belong to Chief Sir!”

“Then did you not hear the order I just gave?”

“Yes! Your subordinate will take leave!”

Hong Jing dared not say more and hastily retreated.

This scene caused alarm among the surrounding Zhi Ge Court masters as they exchanged glances.

Today, Yan Yichen rarely took action personally, sending a signal that many interpreted as him perhaps truly answering to Yu Hu; at the very least, Yu Hu could give him commands.

However, Yan Yichen’s current behavior caused people to feel confused anew.

What exactly was his relationship with the Tiger Saber Gang?
