NOVEL NEXT Chapter 19
Attacking Eagle Claw Hall!
The Eagle Claw Hall was located on “Dragon Cave Street” in City East. It was really close to the city center of Yongan City. Compared to Honghua Street and Scorpion Street, it was much bigger and was the place where the rich people lived. There were restaurants, hotels, entertainment venues and so on. Everything here was extremely luxurious.
In the afternoon, Jiang Li came with the twenty four meches behind him. They were marching in an orderly four-six formation. The four hundred members of the four gangs followed them at the back.
People watched them walk on the street, but nobody dared to stop them. Many of them even shut their doors. They only peaked through their windows or hid on the sides of the street. They all looked terrified.
The troop kept marching ahead. They were going straight towards Eagle Claw Hall.
“Where are these people from?”
“I think the Sirius Gang. No, there are also people from the Scorpion Gang, Red Flame Gang and Axe Gang!”
“Have the four gangs become allies?”
“Something big is going to happen. Look where they’re going. Are they going to ‘Eagle Claw Hall?'”
“Shit!”
“They must be mad. They’re going to attack Eagle Claw Hall.”
“They want to die.”
Everywhere around people were discussing.
“Quick, tell Master about it.”
“Find our brothers and gather at Eagle Claw Hall.”
“These people are going to attack Eagle Claw Hall. I think they have a death wish.”
Many members of Eagle Claw Hall in Dragon Cave Street immediately took action and rushed back to the hall after seeing Jiang Li and the others.
At the same time, the informants of the other gangs also sent a message to their gangs.
City East was stirred.
The leaders of the other second-rate gangs also received the news.
“I heard a few days ago that Jiang Huahong’s son, Jiang Li, killed the senior members of the Sirius Gang and completely took control of the Red Flame Gang, Axe Gang and Scorpion Gang in several days. I guess it’s true.”
“This is interesting. Jiang Li is going to attack Eagle Claw Hall. Does he want to die?”
“This is perfectly normal. The Quicksand Gang won’t let the Sirius Gang run wild. They will definitely restrict the development of the Sirius Gang, so I guess they must be having some disputes.”
“Even if Jiang Li has all the members of the four gangs, he won’t be able to take down Eagle Claw Hall. The Hall Master of Eagle Claw Hall, Lin Tianying, is a Martial Artist of peak-stage level one and he even has a few men at the mid-stage of level one.”
“Besides, Eagle Claw Hall is supported by the Quicksand Gang, the real boss of Yongan City and City East. Nobody dares to disobey them.”
After getting the news, the leaders of many second-rate gangs thought that Jiang Li was basically sending himself to die.
…
At the government office.
“The Sirius Gang.”
The State Lord took the letter from Sergeant Jin. There was information about the Sirius Gang, including what happened in the last few days. It was very detailed.
“Jiang Li is pretty impressive. He took control of four gangs in just several days. He must be truly capable.”
The State Lord nodded. “We don’t have to get involved in the disputes of the gangs as long as they don’t hurt ordinary people. No matter who wins, there won’t be any huge influences.”
“Ask Officer Li to drop by with a couple patrols. We must send someone there.”
“Yes, my Lord.” Jin Heling nodded and left.
…
In Dragon Cave Street, at the entrance of the Eagle Claw Hall.
The courtyard of the hall was huge. The door was open and members of the Eagle Claw Hall entered one after another. After a while, all the members of the Eagle Claw Hall gathered. There were a few hundred of them.
In the courtyard.
Creak! The door of the main building opened. The Hall Master of Eagle Claw Hall, Lin Tianying, stood there with his hands behind him. He was in a long, black robe. He was tall and his eyes were fierce. His fingers were long and his nails had an abnormal cyan color.
There were also two people next to Lin Tianying. One of them was the Chief Elder of Eagle Claw Hall, Long Keqi. His hair was grey and he was wearing an extremely loose blue robe. The other one was the officer of Eagle Claw Hall, Qing Peilin, who was responsible for the rules and punishment of the gang. He wasn’t tall, but he was skinny. And there was a cool smile on his face.
Long Keqi and Qing Peilin were both Lin Tianying’s most adored subordinates and were Martial Artists of mid-stage level one. If He Fenglin survived, there would have been three of these Martial Artists in Eagle Claw Hall.
“Master, all the members of the Eagle Claw Hall are here. We have a total of 453 people,” a young man came up to bow to Lin Tianying and said.
“Hm.” Lin Tianying looked around and said slowly, “I already know what started this. The leader of the Sirius Gang, Jiang Li, killed the Deputy Hall Master of Eagle Claw Hall, He Fenglin. He didn’t only provoke Eagle Claw Hall, but also disrespected the Quicksand Gang. I was planning to go to the Sirius Gang in person and behead Jiang Li, but he came to Eagle Claw Hall with the members of four second-rate gangs, claiming that they’re going to attack us.”
“He’s shameless.”
“Hahaha…”
“Master, how would the small Sirius Gang know how powerful Eagle Claw Hall is?”
“You’re right. We must finish them all this time, so we can frighten the other gangs and show them what we’ve got. Then, they won’t go against us anymore.”
“That’s right.”
The members of Eagle Claw Hall laughed confidently.
“Good.” Lin Tianying nodded. “That’s the spirit. I now announce that whoever kills one person will be given ten taels of silver and the one who kills Jiang Li will be given an internal force art.”
“All hail Hall Master.”
“Brilliant.”
“…”
The members of Eagle Claw Hall cheered.
Then.
“Master, the Sirius Gang is here,” the members that guarded the entrance rushed in and shouted.
“Be prepared to fight.” Lin Tianying narrowed his eyes. “Go!”
Clomp, clomp, clomp. Four hundred people immediately surged out of the courtyard.
…
Outside Eagle Claw Hall.
Jiang Li and his men were here. The entire street was flooded with four hundred people. Residents around shut their doors and hid in their homes.
Boom! The door of Eagle Claw Hall opened, and the four hundred members of Eagle Claw Hall came out viciously with machetes in their hands.
“Kill them!” Jiang Li took a deep breath and yelled as he waved, “Those who kill one person will be given ten taels of silver, while those who kill ten will be given an internal force art.”
“…”
“Internal force art.”
“This…”
“Go!”
“Kill them!”
In a blink, the hesitated members were tempted after hearing what Jiang Li offered. The internal force art was something that truly caught their attention.
The Martial Artists had internal force arts and they wouldn’t pass them down easily. Besides, in this world, only those who practiced Martial Arts could become superior. Otherwise, they would be ordinary people at the bottom for their entire life.
Right now there was such a great opportunity before them. They would get an internal force art once they killed ten people of the other party.
Everyone from the Sirius Gang went crazy.
“Kill them!”
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Members of both parties clashed and started killing with their machetes. There weren’t any rules for the fight. After all, most of them were ordinary people and it was only about who were stronger and more vicious.
Blood splashed everywhere, and there were screams and the sound of stabbing. After a while a dozen dead bodies lay on the ground of the street.
Jiang Li stood at the back of the battlefield with Wang Gang by his side. The twenty four meches still hadn’t attacked yet, but Pang Kui, Xu Ya and Wu Zong had already joined the fight.
