Chapter 105: Chapter 72: The Pit of the Dead! Ink Forest

Prefecture City!_2

“Is that Mr. Wen arriving? Please come in quickly!”

The voice of Wang Yun rang out at the door, and he had already been informed of Su Changkong’s arrival.

Su Changkong entered the room, saw Wang Yun, and sat down opposite him.

“Lord Wang, you’ve been looking quite well these past few days,” Su Changkong began. He noticed that even though Wang Yun’s face showed signs of weariness, there was a kind of revitalized spirit about him.

“Ha ha… After all, a man is always spirited when it comes to doing big things,” Wang Yun laughed.

In the past, faced with threats from the Black Lotus Sect, Wang Yun would worry every day. Now that he had decided to eradicate the influence of the Black Lotus Sect in Clearwater City, there was no need for such concern. After sending his family away, Wang Yun declared war on the Black Lotus Sect.

Many people and forces in Clearwater City had long been dissatisfied with the Black Lotus Sect’s capricious behavior. With Wang Yun leading the charge, he immediately gained a massive amount of support, something he had never experienced before.

“This is what I promised to Mr. Wen. Thank you for your help these past days!”

Wang Yun took out a cloth bundle and placed it on the table, his face full of sincere gratitude.

Without Su Changkong, Wang Yun would have faced the Black Lotus Sect’s intimidation by now, either killed or forced to join them, with no good end in sight.

Su Changkong opened the cloth bundle, and inside he saw a stack of silver notes, each with a denomination of at least one hundred taels, adding up to a total of thirty thousand taels!

This was all of Wang Yun’s savings over the years, and he had now compensated Su Changkong with it. Su Changkong unreservedly accepted it all; it was what he had traded his life for!

“Mr. Wen, I hope you can stay and help me. We can continue to pay you as before,” Wang Yun boldly requested. Su Changkong’s strength was unfathomable; facing the ambush of many experts from the Black Lotus Sect, he had killed every one of them. With his help, eliminating the Black Lotus Sect would be much smoother, easier.

“Forget it, now that Lord Wang is riding the momentum, and even experts like Xu Jin are willing to support you, one more or less won’t make a difference.”

Su Changkong shook his head, refusing the offer. The matter between Wang Yun and the Black Lotus Sect was no longer of any concern to him. Having gotten a large sum of money, he did not want to be further mired in this mess and invite trouble.

What Su Changkong needed to do now was to further enhance his strength. He had relied on his sleeve crossbow and Boiling Blood Scatter to turn defeat into victory when facing Liu Bairen. These were ultimately external aids, unsustainable in the long run; true strength came from within.

Hearing this, Wang Yun felt a bit regretful, but he didn’t persist.

“Well then, Lord Wang, you are very busy, so I shall take my leave first. I wish you all the best!”

Having received the money, Su Changkong didn’t stay long and got up to bid his farewell.

Wang Yun saw him to the door, watching Su Changkong’s departing figure.

“Perhaps… this is the last time we’ll meet? This Wen Tai is too mysterious; in the future, perhaps we will still hear tales about him!”

Wang Yun felt an inexplicable intuition that this could be their last meeting.

Wang Yun could not help but sigh: Wen Tai’s name was not well known in the Clearwater City area, but he had in fact stirred up the situation in the city.

Dressed as Ghost Face, he had slain more than a dozen experts from the Black Lotus Sect and was revered by the people! Later, under the name Iron Beast, he killed Shi Zijian right in his own territory, causing the once unstoppable Black Cavalry Gang to crumble and disband!

Wen Tai kept his identity and achievements well hidden, with only a select few aware of his deeds.

“Prepare a bit, then head to Ink Forest Prefecture City!”

Su Changkong couldn’t help but feel slightly excited.

He had been in this world for several years now, always living secluded, active only around Black Iron Manor and Clearwater City.

Clearwater City was just a tiny corner of the Great Flame Empire. Mention it, and most people across the empire would shake their heads, never having heard of such a place!

The Flame Empire had ten states, hundreds of prefectures; it was vast and rich. Many people would spend their entire lives in their county or town, never seeing the world outside.

And Ink Forest Prefecture City was the most prosperous city in Dafeng State’s Ink Forest Prefecture, the difference between the countryside and a big city was not just one of scale!

Although Su Changkong was eager to see more of this vast world, he was not in a rush. He packed his bag, re-forged his somewhat depleted gold-threaded ring armor.

After all this, Su Changkong made a trip back to Black Iron Manor.

Black Iron Manor: this was where Su Changkong had lived for many years, his starting point.

“Dang dang dang!”

In the morning, standing outside the courtyard walls of Black Iron Manor, he could hear the customary ringing of bells from within the manor.

Originally, when Black Iron Manor faced threats from the Black Cavalry Gang, Mo Tie had dismissed the manor’s members and was waiting alone for their arrival, ready to face a shared fate with Black Iron Manor.

But to Mo Tie’s astonishment, when the time of the agreed showdown came, the Black Cavalry Gang did not show up. Then, news that shook Clearwater City spread: the Black Cavalry Gang was destroyed!

A mysterious warrior in armor, wielding a huge Iron-Cutting Sword, appeared at the Black Cavalry Gang’s base. He killed Shi Zijian and Chen Zhuang on the spot, and afterwards, the Gang fell into chaos and disbanded!

With the threat gone, Mo Tie was overwhelmed with joy. He regathered the members, putting Black Iron Manor back on track, which undoubtedly rejuvenated him immensely!

“Could it have been Changkong… was it Changkong who did it?”

Inside Black Iron Manor, Mo Tie watched members assembling, his mind wandering..
