Chapter 331: Chapter 64 The New King_2
He wasn’t just boasting; the various businesses and connections of “Beast King” needed someone like him to manage and make sense of it all.
Even if Li Fei decided to replace him to manage these businesses in the future, someone like Yang Zhe would be necessary for a smooth transition.
This was the ruthlessness of Yang Zhe; he had killed the other two strategists, making himself the only choice.
Only this way, could he ensure he had the best chance to survive!
Li Fei looked at Yang Zhe intently and said,
“Take me to see this Human Face Villa.”
It wasn’t until this moment that Yang Zhe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had survived!
After that, Yang Zhe took Li Fei on a tour of the entire Human Face Villa, showing him the resources written down in the ledger one by one.
Yang Zhe had already organized the various resources into categories in advance, so that Li Fei could see everything at a glance.
Li Fei noticed that many of the items were still stained with blood.
After roughly inspecting the whole villa, Li Fei came to the front of a house.
This house was the residence of Yu Longqing, and armed guards were stationed around it, although they were watching inside, not the outside.
“Ghost King, the people living inside are Yu Longqing’s family.”
Yang Zhe came up to Li Fei and whispered.
Yu Longqing had not officially married, but naturally, there were many women around him.
The house was occupied by Yu Longqing’s women and a group of servants.
After taking control of this house, Yang Zhe had not allowed the women inside to be harmed.
It wasn’t that he was tender-hearted, but rather he knew that the world wasn’t short of beautiful women, but it was short of beautiful women with status.
The women of “Beast King” held a status that was very attractive to many!
Maybe the Green-faced Ghost King would enjoy it too?
Therefore, this was a flattery that Yang Zhe had deliberately prepared.
Unfortunately, Li Fei completely ignored it.
He showed no interest in entering the house and turned to look at Yang Zhe:
“Does Yu Longqing have no children?”
“No.”
Yang Zhe looked into Li Fei’s eyes and shook his head firmly.
“Dismiss the women here quietly and send them out of Datong Prefecture, leave them some money.”
That was the first order Li Fei gave after entering the villa.
He wasn’t uninterested in beauty; he just wasn’t interested in things others had used.
Yang Zhe nodded and complied, “Understood, but among these women, there is one who, if just sent away, may cause trouble in the future.”
“Oh?”
Li Fei looked at him.
Yang Zhe gestured to a subordinate behind him.
Immediately, the subordinate ran into the house.
Soon after, the person came running out, carrying a woman in one hand.
The woman’s figure and appearance were first-class, and she was tied up with specially made chains.
These chains were designed specifically for containing martial artists.
The person lay the woman at Li Fei’s feet without a word and retreated promptly.
Yang Zhe pointed to the woman at Li Fei’s feet and said,
“This woman is named Liu Wenjun, twenty-nine years old, a Qi Change Late Stage Refining Strength Martial Master. She is one of Yu Longqing’s women and also a disciple personally trained by him. Yu Longqing had high hopes that she would be able to make a breakthrough to the Tao Foundation Stage.”
Li Fei glanced at the woman at his feet. A twenty-nine-year-old Qi Change Late Stage Refining Strength Martial Master indeed had talent, with the potential to become a Tao Foundation Stage powerhouse.
And a Tao Foundation Stage enemy lurking in the shadows would be a hassle for any power.
That’s why Yang Zhe said she shouldn’t be let go.
At this moment, Liu Wenjun also looked up at Li Fei, her eyes full of hatred: “Did you kill him?”
Li Fei locked eyes with her, his right hand touching the hilt of the Ghost Slash Blade.
Seeing this, Liu Wenjun revealed an unafraid smile and closed her eyes, ready to face death.
“You’re using the ‘Steel Armor’ Implant?”
Li Fei suddenly asked.
Liu Wenjun didn’t answer, but Yang Zhe immediately responded for her:
“She’s using a Gold Attribute Second Grade lower-tier ‘Steel Armor’ Implant.”
Li Fei’s “Steel Armor” was a rare Second Grade top-tier, whereas normal “Steel Armor” was only a Second Grade lower-tier.
“You’ve recently started attempting ‘Unity.'”
Li Fei continued speaking to Liu Wenjun at his feet.
Liu Wenjun showed a look of surprise.
“Unity” is the process of slowly gathering the ‘branches’ spread throughout the body from the Implant into one mass, without impacting the usage of Innate Qi and Extraordinary Abilities, and without causing harm to the body.
This is the most crucial step for advancing from the Qi Change Stage to the Tao Foundation Stage, and also the most difficult hurdle.
Since it involves many details and internal changes, the process is quite hidden. If one does not use Innate Qi to probe carefully, it’s difficult for others to notice the changes.
Yet, Li Fei had seen it at a glance!?
And he even knew she had only recently started attempting it.
Is this Green-faced Ghost really so unfathomable?
No wonder he lost to him…
Liu Wenjun’s eyes dimmed.
Yang Zhe observed Li Fei from the side. Although he couldn’t see his face, he discerned that Li Fei seemed suddenly interested in Liu Wenjun, so he immediately said,
“If the Ghost King wishes to keep her, I can arrange it for you.”
He had already consciously referred to himself as a subordinate.
“Good, keep a close watch on her, I want her alive.”
Li Fei issued his second order.
Ordinary people, after breaking through to the Qi Change Late Stage, still need to slowly refine their force, using the effort of water grinding to reach the pinnacle of the Qi Change Stage before they can start attempting a breakthrough.
Li Fei had already broken through to the Qi Change Late Stage, and because his Mind Power was strong enough, coupled with the fact that his Vajra Force had been tempered by Hao Yi with the Heaven and Earth Furnace Force, he was actually at the peak of the Qi Change Stage right after his breakthrough and didn’t need to slowly refine his force anymore.
This also meant that he could begin the process of ‘Unity.’
Liu Wenjun’s implant was also a steel armor and had just begun attempting ‘Unity’, which is why Li Fei could tell at a glance.
He specifically kept this person to ‘Observe Tao’ through Liu Wenjun!
Even though everyone’s physique is different, and the grades of their implants are also different, Liu Wenjun’s ‘Unity’ process would definitely differ a lot from Li Fei’s, but it was still of great reference value.
“As long as I am alive for a single day, I will forever want to kill you! You better kill me now, don’t ever think I will serve you!”
Liu Wenjun suddenly shouted after hearing Li Fei’s words.
She thought that Li Fei had thoughts of subjugating her after knowing she had started attempting ‘Unity.’
Li Fei looked into her eyes and said coldly,
“After you make a breakthrough, I will give you a chance to avenge Yu Longqing one-on-one.”
“What did you say?”
Liu Wenjun was taken aback.
“Scared?”
Li Fei countered.
“Good! I will surely kill you!”
Liu Wenjun said through gritted teeth.
Li Fei didn’t look at her anymore.
Yang Zhe waved his hand, and someone immediately took Liu Wenjun away.
Then he smiled and bowed to Li Fei,
“Ghost King, please wait a moment.”
Li Fei watched him, curious about what else he had planned.
Yang Zhe turned and looked at the hundred or so people who had followed, a smile still on his face, and lifted his hand in a throat-slitting gesture.
Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh-whoosh—
Suddenly, blades flashed within the crowd, followed by heads flying!
Blood poured like a waterfall, causing chaos among the people.
Li Fei watched this scene quietly, without moving.
The sudden massacre ended quickly, and over twenty bodies now lay on the ground, filling the air with the pungent stench of blood.
Yang Zhe turned and bowed to Li Fei,
“Subordinate knows the Ghost King’s rules, those just killed have all committed unforgivable crimes!”
He knew that after the Green-faced Ghost took over the Tiger Saber Gang’s power in Xing City, a slaughter had unfolded.
Now, without Li Fei saying anything, he took the initiative to lead a massacre!
“The rest, although they are not clean either, their crimes do not warrant death. If the Ghost King does not believe, you can investigate each one.”
Yang Zhe continued.
Li Fei looked at the naturally smiling strategist before him and nodded,
“Good, since you understand my rules, then you should also be aware of which businesses need to be discarded and which need to change.”
“Yes, subordinate understands, please be assured, Ghost King.”
Yang Zhe bowed again.
Li Fei turned to the remaining people and said word by word,
“From now on, there is no ‘Beast King’.”
A martial master who had just brought out his blade to kill knelt on one knee before Li Fei,
“We pledge our undying loyalty to the Ghost King!”
Following his lead, the remaining people knelt one by one, chanting together,
“We pledge our undying loyalty to the Ghost King—”
The voices of dozens of martial artists blended together, echoing through the night sky of Human Face Villa, and could be clearly heard by everyone outside.
The forty-sixth year of Hongguang, on the night of April 2nd.
Surrounded by the four major powers, the Green-faced Ghost entered Human Face Villa alone, taking over everything left by ‘Beast King’ Yu Longqing.
The entire Human Face Villa was an apology gift from the ‘Poison King’, ‘Gun King’, and ‘Shadow King’ to the Green-faced Ghost!
After tonight, one of the ‘Seven Kings’ of Datong Prefecture, the ‘Beast King’, no longer existed.
But the ‘Seven Kings’ still remained, for a new Green-faced Ghost King has emerged!
