Chapter 919: No Pushover Indeed!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

One could tell by the name Boat Gang that it was a gang full of the common people.

The Boat Gang was founded more than 100 years ago. At that time, the captain of a boat met a severely injured warrior of the society and obtained a few rare martial arts manuals from him.

The captain possessed pretty good talent. Through practicing by himself and interacting with others, he actually attained the Earth Wheel level, which was a pretty impressive result.

At that time, he remembered how difficult life was when his brothers worked aboard boats. With his strength, he established the Boat Gang so that all sailors could unite and avoid being bullied.

The current chief of the Boat Gang was a descendant of the captain from back then.

In this middle section of the Mian River, they were already considered to have quite a bit of influence.

Of course, in the eyes of Ren Baqian, this influence was basically no different from that of ordinary people.

Three Earth Wheel experts… This wasn’t even enough for Lin Qiaole to sharpen her nails…

Instead of the riverbank of the Mian River, the Boat Gang resided at the base of a nearby mountain. A large estate was located here.

At night, Ren Baqian and the other left their mounts in She City and headed for the Boat Gang.

After embarking on the journey for some time, Lin Yue suddenly wondered out loud, “What are we doing so late at night?”

She didn’t know anything and simply followed everyone when she saw them going out.

Of course, if she were to give it some thought, it would probably take her until the next morning.

“To meet someone!” Ren Baqian replied.

“Oh,” Lin Yue responded simply.

If she had other questions to ask, they would probably only pop up tomorrow morning.

The headquarters of the Boat Gang was pretty big, and it was fully lit inside.

They had several thousand disciples and most of their members were ordinary people. There would usually be a few hundred of them inside.

There were four guards outside the main gate. Ren Baqian moved slightly to the side, jumped up on the wall, and was able to see people walking around in the distance.

On the whole, the situation was calm with the Boat Gang not noticing that there were people who were already on them.

He squatted atop the wall with Lin Qiaole beside him and Lin Yue beside her. They were like a row of onlookers watching a show…

Ren Baqian turned his head when he heard cracking noises and saw Lin Yue chewing on melon seeds.

There was no telling how many melon seeds she had brought from Lan City. It had been so many days, yet she still hadn’t finished eating them.

“Be serious. We are doing business,” he said sternly.

“Do you want some?” Lin Yue stretched out her hand and offered him some melon seeds…

Ren Baqian was speechless.

He grabbed the melon seeds and chewed as he observed the situation.

Just as he finished eating them, he saw someone walking in from a door in the distance and became overjoyed.

“Get him! Keep him alive!” he ordered.

With a swoosh, Xin Zhe was already standing beside that man. Before he could even react, she grabbed him by the neck and returned to the wall.

After they took him further away, Ren Baqian gestured for her to release her grip.

“Who are you people?” The young man in his twenties looked at them in horror.

“Be aware of your situation. I’m interrogating you, not the other way around!” A silver glint flashed in Ren Baqian’s hand as a gold and silver spear appeared and pressed against the young man’s throat.

“Huh?” Li Yuanzhu looked at Ren Baqian in astonishment. This was clearly a Heaven-grade weapon that only Spirit Wheel experts could condense. How did he have this? Did he conceal his true strength? It was impossible! He couldn’t have hidden it from her!

Could he have attained the Spirit Wheel level and regressed after sustaining heavy injuries?

No matter how much a Spirit Wheel expert regressed, it was impossible for them to fall to the level of an ordinary person!

Li Yuanzhu remembered the first time she met Ren Baqian. He was a completely ordinary person back then!

The length, color, and feel of this spear… There seemed to be an inexplicable sense of familiarity. Could this be Teng Yue’s Spirit Spear?

What exactly happened?

Almost immediately after the spear appeared in Ren Baqian’s hand, Li Yuanzhu shifted all of her attention to it.

The young man couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw this. Then, he seemed to have thought of something, and his face suddenly changed.

Although few people had seen Spirit Wheel experts who condensed their Heaven-grade weapons, almost all of these experts were renowned.

Why would such an individual appear here?

Not to mention such a top expert, the Boat Gang wouldn’t even be able to withstand an ordinary Spirit Wheel expert.

“Senior, what do you want to ask? I don’t know much. Even if you were to head right to the helm, even the left guardian might not be able to answer your questions!”

After achieving his goal, Ren Baqian flipped his palm and retracted the spear.

Of course, he could directly take his companions, barge into the helm, and threaten the people there to take him to their chief’s hideout.

However, this would inadvertently alert their enemies too easily.

Currently, Ren Baqian wasn’t even sure that any of the members of the Boat Gang were among the culprits.

He might as well kidnap someone to find out more information.

“I’ll ask and you’ll answer. If you are honest, I’ll spare your life. I simply want to understand some things, and I have no evil intentions for your Boat Gang. Now for the questions. Is your chief cultivating in seclusion? Where is he? How does he communicate with the outside world? How do you know that he’s cultivating in seclusion? What happened before he started doing this? Who is calling the shots now?” Ren Baqian fired a series of questions.

“The chief is practicing a technique in a mountain cave back behind the helm. He went there himself, and nothing happened before he went there. He would call out to get people to send things in at times, and the left guardian would always be the one to do it. Currently, Guardian Zuo is also the one calling the shots!” The young man didn’t dare to hide anything and quickly spit out everything that he knew.

“I believe you have two guardians in your gang? What are their names? What is the other guardian doing?”

“The left guardian’s name is Zuo Lengtang, and the right guardian’s name is Bai Zhe. It’s said that the chief dispatched him to do something.”

“Is the left guardian here?”

“Yes! Now that the chief is in seclusion and the right guardian has gone out to run errands, the left guardian has been overseeing the entire helm!”

“Can you knock him out? I’m afraid that I won’t be able to control my strength if I do it. You should have more experience with this!” Ren Baqian got the information that he wanted and nodded at Li Yuanzhu.

He really didn’t know how much strength it would take to knock a person out. Things would turn nasty if he accidentally killed this man.

He just wanted to avoid getting detected before meeting the chief of the Boat Gang.

Li Yuanzhu felt a little speechless after hearing this. What did he mean by her being more experienced?

Regardless, she raised her hand. With the flick of her finger, the young man immediately fainted.

“Let’s go to the mountain in the back.”

Along the way, Li Yuanzhu constantly wanted to ask Ren Baqian about the Heaven-grade weapon, but didn’t get a chance to because they arrived at the mountain shortly. She had no choice but to suppress her doubt.

Not long after, they found a platform along the mountainside with two Man Wheel practitioners guarding the place.

Without him even asking, she raised her finger and knocked both of them out.

The group landed on the platform without even checking out their surroundings. They saw two huge wooden doors embedded at the entrance of the cave.

If they weren’t mistaken, this should be where the chief of the Boat Gang was staying in seclusion.

Without hesitation, Ren Baqian stepped forward and kicked the door.

Boom!

The entire door shuddered.

Ren Baqian was immediately full of emotion!

This wooden door… was actually reinforced with metal…

Damn it! I kicked a metal plate… These thoughts arose in his head as he winced from the immense pain in his toes.

“Haaa…” Ren Baqian took deep breaths as if this could alleviate the pain in his foot.

Without knowing why, Li Yuanzhu felt like laughing when she saw what happened…

This scene was truly… too awesome…
