Chapter 62: Thunder Token
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Herlyee Translations
It was late at night.
Heavy rain poured down, and lightning flashed.
At this mont, the Black Tiger Gang’s encampnt was brightly lit and there were many people coming and going.
In the middle of the room, a thin old man stood quietly.
Lei Hu, the leader of the Black Tiger Gang, sat at the head of the table confidently. He held a slightly tattered letter in his left hand and rubbed a square white rice paper with gold on the square table with his right hand.
There were only two big words written on it: Thunder Token.
The rice paper was as delicate as snow and had exquisite golden patterns. It was so exquisite that one could see it with the naked eye. It was simply incompatible with the rough tables, chairs, doors, and fras around it, as if it was a product of two worlds.
Lei Hu rubbed it slowly. Calculating his age, he was already 30 years old. This should be his most ambitious age.
It had been three years since he founded the Black Tiger Gang and used extrely brilliant thods to carve out a bloody path in the cruel environnt of the gangs in Ding’an City.
These three years were the three years when he was ambitious. However, it was also the three years when he recognized reality and was depressed day by day.
The Black Tiger Gang had strict hierarchical rules, cohesiveness, and a group of ten Black Tigers who could kill high-level Strength Realm cultivators and were invincible in gang battles…
However, the Black Tiger Gang could not avoid encountering that unbreakable bottleneck—the Tough Realm martial artist.
There were no Tough Realm martial artists in the Black Tiger Gang.
Lei Hu was a Strength Realm martial artist himself, and he had already reached an extrely profound level in the Strength Realm.
However, due to his talent and the internal injuries from the gang fights in his early years, he had no hope of reaching the Tough Realm in his life.
He originally naively thought that the Tough Realm was just an enhanced version of the Strength Realm.
No matter how strong a Tough Realm cultivator was, could they be stronger than the ten Black Tigers that he had carefully trained?
Until he had seen the true strength of a Tough Realm martial artist. He had seen how destructive it was and how inhuman their strength was. Even a high-level martial artist of the Strength Realm could not withstand a single blow from it.
Only then did he realize that there was a huge chasm between the Tough Realm and the Strength Realm. The chasm was deeper than the Tongji Canal and wider than the Guangchuan Mountains.
Therefore, no matter how brilliant his thods were or how scheming he was, the Black Tiger Gang would never beco one of those big gangs that occupied the middle circle openly. It could only be a rat in the gutter.
This was the Tough Realm, a gap that he could not cross in the past.
But now, a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity was placed in front of him.
Lei Hu looked at the rice paper on the table. His eyes were burning with deep reverence.
The words ‘Thunder Token” on it flew freely under the candlelight, as if just the words alone could show so extraordinary nobility.
At this mont, there was a series of curses and beatings outside, as well as the cries of children.
‘What’s going on outside?” Lei Hu frowned.
“It should be a two-legged sheep that was just brought over. It has a very strong temper and they’re teaching it a lesson.’
Lei Hu said impatiently, “Didn’t I say no beating? If she’s broken, she won’t be able to sell for good money. Put her in a dog cage. She’ll be obedient after starving for a few days.”
“Gang Master is wise.”
Lei Hu took a deep breath. His tiger eyes were like lightning as he asked the old man coldly, “Let’s not talk about this. Old Wolf, is he not back yet?’
The old man said, ‘Gang Master, those two low-level gang mbers haven’t returned yet. I’m afraid they’re dood.”
Lei Hu was expressionless, but there was a hint of disappointnt in his eyes. “One wrong step and every step is wrong. We’ve already missed the best opportunity. I hope we haven’t alerted the enemy.”
The old man said, ‘We can only bla the Du family for provoking Lin Yan at this ti. Otherwise, we would have been able to find Muqing Book House in at most three days and secretly trick Lin Xiaozhi away.
Lei Hu waved the letter in his hand, and a few lines of words vaguely appeared on it: Lin Yan, my son, when you read the words, it’s like we’ve t…
He supported himself on the edge of the chair and stood up. He was nearly two ters tall and had the back of a tiger and the waist of a bear. Just by standing, he gave off a ferocious pressure.
“The strongest fortress has to be broken through from the inside. I rember that Lin Yan has a grudge with a disciple called Mi Tai from Dragon Gate Pavilion, right?”
“Yes. I’ve personally interacted with Mi Tai. This person has clearly just entered the Strength Realm, but he’s arrogant and doesn’t take our Black Tiger Gang seriously at all. He’s naive, arrogant, and stupid.”
Lei Hu sneered. “Aren’t all these young people who think they’re geniuses like this? If they don’t see the harshness of the Tough Realm barrier, they won’t understand their diocrity.
“However, it’s best to deal with such people.
“Resources, won, money… He can obtain very little, but there must be a lot of things he wants.
“It’s just spending so ti. As long as I can complete this Thunder Token, everything will be worth it…”
Suddenly, there was a slight commotion outside the door. Lei Hu frowned slightly. “Go and ask what happened. ‘
Before the old man left, a person walked in with majestic steps and said calmly, “Gang Master.”
“Shoot.”
“There’s soone outside who wants to sneak in. He was discovered by our brothers and is being dealt with.”
Lei Hu was stunned. “Sneak in? At this ti today?’
The Black Tiger Gang gathered every seven days. Today was the day of the Black Tiger Gang’s gathering. Not only were all the elites present, but 90% of the low-level gang mbers were also here.
The burly man’s expression relaxed as he chuckled softly. ‘This person is clearly a newbie. He was discovered imdiately. I reckon that so hothead didn’t know anything and accidentally barged into an empty door.”
Lei Hu waved his hand and said casually, “Don’t kill him. Bring him up for to see who’s stupid and bold.”
Lei Hu didn’t take it seriously. If it was a Tough Realm martial artist, there was no need to sneak in at all. If it wasn’t a Tough Realm… was there a need to take it seriously?
Regardless of the commotion outside, he discussed with Old Wolf again how to lure Mi Tai and bring Lin Xiaozhi out of Dragon Gate Pavilion.
The two of them were both experts in scheming. Soon, they ca up with an extrely feasible plan. The corners of Lei Hu’s mouth curled up.
However, the commotion outside the door beca more and more intense.
Then, it beca a sound that Lei Hu could not ignore. It cast a shadow of anger over Lei Hu’s originally good mood.
‘What are you doing?! You’ve been causing trouble for so long and it’s still not resolved!”
At this mont, the burly man pushed the door open again.
However, this ti, he was wearing a straw raincoat. It was wet and steaming. The expression on his face was no longer as calm as before. Sweat dripped from his forehead, and his face began to turn pale. “G-Gang Master.’
Lei Hu’s heart sank when he saw this. “Speak!’
“We’ve encountered a ruthless person! He’s a powerful martial artist. Please take care of the overall situation!”
Lei Hu’s expression imdiately turned cold. He suddenly stood up and strode out of the door. Old Wolf and the burly man followed behind him.
As he pushed open the door, the heavy rain was like an opening in the celestial river, and rain splashed.
One of the gang mbers handed Lei Hu a straw raincoat.
Water circles accumulated on the ground, and water splashed everywhere. Lei Hu and the others quickly walked past the courtyard. Soone had already opened the door for him.
Lei Hu crossed the threshold and stood at the door. With a cursory glance, his pupils instantly constricted into a needle.
Under the dark rainy night, a thick layer of rain accumulated. The torrential rain was like a thick curtain, making the figure hidden behind the rain blurry.
However, the dozen or so gang mbers lying on the ground around him were clearly visible.
None of them could still stand. Their muscles and bones were broken, and their chests had collapsed. They were either unconscious or wailing. Blood seeped out of their mouths, noses, and bones. More than ten blood-colored flowers spread out and surrounded the mysterious person.
It was like a funeral wreath.
As a result, the blurry figure in the middle instantly beca the focus of his vision.
At this mont, Lei Hu naturally understood two cruel facts.
Firstly, this man was indeed a ruthless and tough person.
Secondly, this person was not here to play house. He was here to fight to the death..
