Unfettered Retribution: Slaughtering My Way through the World Chapter 91 - 88: You Wanted Me to Come Out? So Here I Am!

He hadn’t expected them to help with this operation anyway.

’I could just go all out and charge in by myself, couldn’t I?’

Han Zhenshan nodded lightly and said no more. He imdiately looked at the group of gang mbers beside him and said in a low voice, "You all heard him. Gather all our mbers. Leave one-third to guard the headquarters. The rest will move out with Foreign Affairs Envoy Chen imdiately!"

"Yes, Elder Han."

A burly, stocky middle-aged man nodded, his face filled with shock.

He then took out a signal flare and lit it. SWOOSH! A streak of light shot into the sky.

Before long,

Figures began gathering from all directions. Countless gang mbers were rapidly converging.

In the blink of an eye, the entire stronghold was densely packed with gang mbers.

When they learned they were going to move against Shangguan Castle, everyone was astonished, breaking into disbelieving chatter.

"All of you, shut up! From now on, you will do whatever Foreign Affairs Envoy Chen tells you to do. Don’t ask questions, and don’t say a word."

Han Zhenshan barked the order, his gaze sweeping back over the crowd.

Although he was retired, the authority he had accumulated over more than ten years was still there.

With that one shout, the crowd instantly fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Chen Xuan gave a slight nod, glancing at Old Deng again with an approving look.

Old Deng was getting on in years.

But he hadn’t lost a step when it ca to worldly wisdom.

His one sentence saved Chen Xuan the trouble of wasting his breath.

"Zhou Jian, Zhao Fang, step forward!"

Han Zhenshan said again.

At once, two burly, middle-aged n stepped out, their faces full of respect.

"Foreign Affairs Envoy Chen, these two are trusted confidants I’ve painstakingly trained. If you need anything along the way, you can ask them."

Han Zhenshan said, a complex look on his face.

"Understood."

Chen Xuan nodded faintly and shouted, "We move out now! Surround Shangguan Castle for , and don’t let a single fly escape!"

When it ca to collecting retribution points, he didn’t want to waste a single mont.

Everyone moved out at once, a dense mass of people rushing toward Shangguan Castle.

For a ti, the entire southern district of the city was thrown into chaos.

Countless factions were stunned when they heard the news.

"What did you say? The Twelve Alliances has gathered its experts?"

"The Twelve Alliances is moving toward Shangguan Castle?"

"Are you kidding ? They’re going to make a move on Shangguan Castle?"

"That old Han has been lying low for so many years. Why the sudden move?"

...

「At Shangguan Castle.」

In a spacious back courtyard,

The Shangguan Castle Master’s movents were slow, like an old tortoise. He stood in the courtyard, practicing a set of soft, flowing boxing forms. Every move was in harmony with nature, exuding an indescribable rhythm.

Just then,

Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps ca from outside.

Shangguan Jie rushed in from outside, his expression anxious. "Father, sothing’s happened."

Shangguan Ao acted as if he hadn’t heard, continuing his slow, deliberate movents.

"Father, sothing really has happened!"

Shangguan Jie cried out anxiously again.

Shangguan Ao’s tone was faint, his movents never pausing. "You’re good at everything, except you panic when things go wrong. Your mind is not stable. You must understand that the ultimate secret of Martial Arts lies in stillness. Only when you are as still as placid water can you perceive your true inner self and understand where you are truly stuck..."

"No, it’s not that! The Twelve Alliances is making a move against us!"

Shangguan Jie had no ti for lectures, shouting in anxious fury.

"What?"

Shangguan Ao’s expression changed in alarm. He stopped abruptly and stared at Shangguan Jie. "What nonsense are you spouting?"

"It’s true! Their experts have already charged over. They’ve completely surrounded our castle."

Shangguan Jie said through clenched teeth.

The Twelve Alliances had moved too quickly.

They hadn’t even had ti to react before experts had surrounded them from all sides.

’Could Mr. Cat and his people have failed?’

Shangguan Ao wondered, alard and suspicious.

’But that’s impossible.’

’How could they fail when they were just cleaning up a few small fry?’

’Even if they did fail, Han Zhenshan wouldn’t dare to tear off all pretenses, would he?’

’If he really dared to make a move, he would have done so long ago. Why wait until now?’

"Shangguan Ao!"

Suddenly, a sinister, icy voice called from outside.

Two figures clad in black robes and black hoods, their bodies completely wrapped in black cloth, walked in from the courtyard entrance. Their faces under the hoods were dark and shadowy, impossible to see clearly.

One could only feel a sharp gaze, almost tangible, sweeping over them.

"Mr. Cat..."

Shangguan Ao said imdiately, "What is going on?"

"My daughter is missing!"

The black-robed figure on the left said in a low voice.

"What?"

Shangguan Ao’s expression changed slightly. "How did she go missing?"

"The person my daughter was tasked to hunt down has also disappeared. Only a bloody arm was left at the scene. If I’m not mistaken, he must have been rescued... and my daughter was most likely captured by that sa person!"

The black-robed figure continued in a low voice.

"Shangguan Ao, no matter what, you must rescue my daughter!"

The black-robed figure on the right shrieked.

It was a woman’s voice, filled with resentnt and coldness.

"Rest assured, I will investigate this thoroughly. But right now, I have to deal with the trouble from the Twelve Alliances first!"

Shangguan Ao said at once.

"The Twelve Alliances? I can charge out right now and slaughter every last one of them!"

The female Cat Demon on the right shrieked resentfully.

"Don’t!"

His expression changing slightly, Shangguan Ao imdiately stopped her. "Besides the Twelve Alliances, no one knows you are hiding here. If you reveal yourselves, my Shangguan Castle will imdiately beco a public enemy. None of the major powers will let off the hook. You must remain hidden. You absolutely cannot be exposed. As for the Twelve Alliances, I will deal with them myself."
