Unfettered Retribution: Slaughtering My Way through the World Chapter 71: Assembly at Black Dragon Mountain

"Elder Qin?"

Chen Xuan thought of that middle-aged man.

"Yes, the Grand Elder of the Left Vein, Qin Wushuang!"

Li Changsheng’s voice was grave as he whispered:

"The Twelve Alliances is divided internally into the Left and Right Veins. The Grand Elder of the Right Vein is Ye Yunya, who has always been detached and inactive, with no desire to manage affairs. Because of this, most of the gang’s matters are handled by the Grand Elder of the Left Vein, Qin Wushuang.

And this Qin Wushuang is a narrow-minded man who rarely shows his emotions, making him very difficult to get along with. This ti, you beat Li Canghai to death and humiliated Su Muyun—both of them are from the Left Vein.

Also, I heard from Wentong that you also beat up Qin Xiong. That Qin Xiong is also one of Qin Wushuang’s nominal disciples. Over the years, who knows how many benefits he has given Qin Wushuang. I’m afraid you’ve long since earned his displeasure."

"Is that so?"

Chen Xuan’s eyes turned cold. "How strong is he?"

"Unfathomable."

Li Changsheng shook his head gently and sighed. "He’s the youngest elder in the history of our Twelve Alliances. At only fifty-one years old, he’s already at the peak of the Gang Energy Realm, just one step away from the mysterious and unpredictable realm of True Qi."

"Is that all?"

Chen Xuan sneered inwardly.

’And here I thought he was supposed to be so strong.’

’Turns out he hasn’t even cultivated True Qi!’

’As long as he doesn’t have True Qi, killing won’t be so easy.’

He had mastered Three Thousand Thunders, allowing him to move at incredible speeds within a small area.

’As long as I really want to leave, he might not be able to catch .’

"Don’t be careless. Although he hasn’t cultivated True Qi, he’s still extrely terrifying. He has mastered various Absolute Top Grade Martial Arts. As far as I know, he has never lost a battle."

Li Changsheng’s voice was grave. "Furthermore, this man is ticulous. He rarely makes a move, but when he does, it’s always a killing blow. Even I sotis break out in a cold sweat when I face him."

"Understood."

Chen Xuan nodded.

’A hidden, venomous snake.’

’With my current strength, I’m truly no match for him.’

’But there’s still plenty of ti.’

’Let’s let ti be the judge of that.’

"As long as you keep it in mind."

Li Changsheng responded, waving his hand gently to dismiss Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan said no more and turned to leave.

...

As soon as he returned to his residence, Chen Xuan sat cross-legged on his bed and opened his panel again.

...

’The Cultivation Technique from my teacher is too slow. The trip to Black Dragon Mountain is imminent. Are my current retribution points enough to fuse a Cultivation Technique for the Gang Energy Realm?’

Chen Xuan pondered.

’I’ve already had experience with Cultivation Technique fusion last ti, so I don’t need to worry about the panel’s function.’

’The only worry is not having enough retribution points.’

’After all, I only have 8,800 retribution points right now.’

’To fuse a Cultivation Technique that leads directly to the Gang Energy realm, I wouldn’t feel confident with anything less than 10,000.’

’What if I get halfway through the fusion and suddenly run out of retribution points?’

’Wouldn’t all my previous effort be wasted?’

So, after considering everything, Chen Xuan forced himself to endure, sighing softly. "Forget it. I’ll wait a bit longer. I’ll fuse them after I’ve saved up so more."

’The Gang Energy Realm is different from the others.’

’If I got halfway through the fusion and ran out of retribution points, I wouldn’t even have tears to cry.’

’Besides, I accumulate retribution points quickly anyway.’

’If I run into a few fools who don’t know their place, I might just get another few thousand points in a flash.’

’Qin Wushuang...’

Chen Xuan murmured inwardly, making a deep ntal note of this person.

...

Ti passed.

Early the next morning.

Chen Xuan finally received a notice from Li Changsheng to gather at the Alliance Plaza. They were to set out early this morning.

By the ti Chen Xuan heard the news and rushed over, the plaza was already packed with dozens of figures standing in groups of three to five, discussing in low voices. All of them were elites.

Many of them were the prodigies of the gang.

Barely in their early thirties, they had already reached the Transforming Force Realm.

Normally, these people were arrogant and wouldn’t submit to anyone, but when they heard that Chen Xuan was leading the team today, none of them dared to act out.

After all, Chen Xuan had just beaten a Gang Energy Realm elder to death with his bare hands.

His battle record was both real and terrifying.

No one dared to be a troublemaker at a ti like this.

Everyone wore sycophantic smiles as they bowed to Chen Xuan, each trying to be more polite than the last.

"Senior Brother Chen, I’m Shen Yunfei. You haven’t forgotten , have you?"

A young man of about thirty forced a smile and bowed to Chen Xuan, saying, "I’m the one from Langhuan Paradise. Back when you beat up Murong Xue, I even greeted you..."

"It’s you."

Chen Xuan recalled him, his gaze indifferent as he looked toward the rest of the crowd.

One by one, the people in the plaza quickly forced smiles, trying to get on Chen Xuan’s good side.

Even a female prodigy, known for being cold and aloof, was now unstinting with her smiles, nodding repeatedly at Chen Xuan.

She had no choice but to smile.

Everyone knew this Chen Xuan was a madman.

If she dared to put on her cold and aloof airs in front of Chen Xuan, she might get killed with a single punch halfway through their journey.

By then, it would be too late for regrets.

"Is everyone here?"

Chen Xuan asked.

"Yes, everyone’s here."

Shen Yunfei replied quickly with a smile.

"No elders are coming with us?"

Chen Xuan asked.

"No, it’s just us."

Shen Yunfei continued with a smile, "However, at Black Dragon Mountain, we have a team waiting to rendezvous with us. I think the person leading them is Cao Yunlong..."

"Cao Yunlong?"

Chen Xuan was puzzled.

"Ahem, it’s normal that you haven’t heard of him. He’s always been out doing missions and hasn’t been back for months. But he’s ranked eleventh on the Wind and Cloud List. You’ve heard of the Wind and Cloud List, right?"

"I’ve heard of it."

"Those at the top of the Wind and Cloud List also have battle records of killing experts at the Transforming Force Ninth Layer."

Shen Yunfei said with awe.

"Have they killed anyone in the Gang Energy Realm?"

Chen Xuan asked.

"No, definitely not."

Shen Yunfei said quickly.

’Not everyone is a monster like you.’

’Forget number eleven on the Wind and Cloud List; even number one doesn’t have a record of killing a Gang Energy expert.’

’Chen Xuan’s strength is in a league of its own.’

"Well, there you have it."

Chen Xuan’s tone was calm, but he was slightly disappointed.

’I was hoping to run into a few troublemakers.’

’It seems I won’t be running into any for a while.’

’I can only pin my hopes on the other factions.’

’Didn’t they say other major factions would be participating in the Black Dragon Mountain expedition?’

’Surely there will be so troublemakers among those factions?’

"Everyone, introduce yourselves."

Chen Xuan said flatly.

"Yes, Senior Brother Chen."

The crowd imdiately began to introduce themselves one by one.

Everyone’s attitude was humble, as obedient as could be.

After the introductions, Chen Xuan waved his hand and said indifferently, "Let’s move out!"

...

Ti passed.

Suns rose and set, and rose and set again.

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

An endless, vast mountain range was covered year-round with dark, dense trees. Seen from high above, it looked like a great, twisted black dragon crawling on the ground.

This was how Black Dragon Mountain got its na.

「At this very mont.」

Deep within Black Dragon Mountain, surrounding one of the peaks, countless tents had already been set up.

Crowds of people gathered, packed together densely.

They surrounded the entire mountain peak so tightly that it was impassable, with another wave of people appearing almost every few miles.

So of the mountain passes were even more heavily guarded.

Within one of the spacious valleys.

A large number of figures were gathered here, all from the powerful factions of the various major commanderies in Canglan Province.

A man in a green robe, with a sowhat effeminate air, sat upright and said, "If no one has any objections, then among the people here at Celestial Wolf Valley, my Iron Stone Castle will take the lead. I, Xu Tong, will temporarily act as the leader for everyone and be responsible for all our actions!"

His gaze was sharp as he swept it across the crowd.

Anyone caught in his gaze subconsciously lowered their heads, their scalps tingling with fear.

Xu Tong of Iron Stone Castle, the ninth-ranked expert on the Wind and Cloud List!

Only thirty-three years old, and already at the Transforming Force Ninth Layer!

Indeed, no one present dared to contend with him.

For this gathering at Black Dragon Mountain, the various factions were split into eight directions, each one filled with experts. This Celestial Wolf Valley direction was dominated by four main factions: Iron Stone Castle, the Fulong Gang, the Twelve Alliances, and the Zhang family of Qinghe.

The ones sent by the various factions were mostly young prodigies, all hoping to catch the eye of the Wang family and be held in high regard.

Just being thought highly of for a mont would be enough to benefit them for a lifeti.

"We have no objections, but I wonder if the Twelve Alliances have any?"

A beautiful woman from the Fulong Gang forced a smile and looked toward the Twelve Alliances.

"I hear the Twelve Alliances recently produced another prodigy nad Chen Xuan, who has the strength to beat a Transforming Force Ninth Layer expert to death with his bare hands. I wonder if he’ll be coming?"

"Hm?"

Xu Tong’s eyes turned cold as he glared at the beautiful woman. He stood up abruptly, an invisible aura radiating from him.

"Are you implying that I can’t kill soone at the Transforming Force Ninth Layer?"

"Or are you saying that Cao Yunlong doesn’t have that kind of battle record?"

"You have a point. Heh heh."

The beautiful woman let out a light, bell-like laugh and looked at a person in charge from the Twelve Alliances. "Brother Cao, what do you think?"
