As everyone knew, Juzhang was ruled by three sects, namely the Upper Wilderness Temple of Gods, the Five Elements Sect, and the Muyun Clan. Although the Upper Wilderness Temple of Gods occupied many cities, they also had to look after more hunting grounds. Although the Five Elements Sect was orthodox, the inheritance of Confucian orthodoxy had been destroyed. Now, it was only a second-rate sect. Compared to the sects in the human world, it was only in the Divine Domain.
The Muyun Clan was promoted by the Dao Court. Its original name was Dusk Cloud Tower. They were experts at seducing women to obtain money or techniques. They were known as the ticks of the cultivation world and the cattle lice that attached themselves to women. But as the saying goes, 'You reap what you sow'. Perhaps it was because of their hard work that the head of the Muyun Sect finally broke through to the Divine Domain several years ago, and several Immortal realm experts appeared in the sect. In an instant, they swept through all the major sects of the human world and directly threatened the Dragon Emperor Sacred Court.
The two banks of the Juzhang River were the territories given to the Muyun Clan by the Dao Court. This place was located at the edge of Juzhang, close to the Asura World. It was mostly barren mountains, with one large hunting ground and seven small hunting grounds. In total, there were four cities and twelve towns, and the population was about ten million. Ever since the Five Elements Court was destroyed, bandits rose in Juzhang. There were more than twenty groups of roaming bandits from other places. The two banks of the river were their lairs. They burned, killed, and looted everywhere. The Dao Court tried many times to stop them. Due to the invasion of the demon race, they had no choice but to hand over the security to the local forces.
A Void Breaking Shuttle was flying on the river, closely followed by a tracking talisman. The owner of the tracking talisman was in a dense forest a hundred li away. As early as yesterday, this dense forest was occupied by their group. The leader of this group was a fierce man with a face full of scars. He didn't need to report his name. Anyone who made a living in Juzhang would immediately kneel down and offer up their belongings as soon as they saw the wooden prosthesis on his feet. This was because he had two evil brothers. One was Zhang Erhe, who ate people without spitting out their bones, and the other was Li Shaoqi, who killed people in less than three moves. Furthermore, he had a notorious name, Ni Dalong, the Sky Swallowing Whale.
It was unknown whether Zhang Erhe ate humans or not, but he had a mouth of shark-like steel teeth. No matter what entered his mouth, he only needed to chew it a few times to turn it into crumbs. Moreover, he was born in the year of the Zodiac, so he liked to chew on bones. The sturdiest bone of a cow was like cotton to him.
Li Shaoqi used to be an executioner and was an expert in podao. He had once beheaded five hundred criminals in one night, so he knew the weak points of the human body like the back of his hand.
The reason why Ni Dalong was called the Sky-Swallowing Whale was because his stomach could never be filled. Furthermore, he was greedy and merciless.
If I meet you, I won't stop until I've robbed you clean. If you thought that you could live just by handing over money, then you were gravely mistaken. Every time he robbed someone, he would also rob them of their lives. Furthermore, he ate both the black and white worlds. Even if there was a whale in the sky, it would be swallowed by him in one gulp. That was why he was called the Heaven Swallowing Whale.
"How is it, Big Brother? Has the fat sheep arrived yet?"
A group of dozens of fierce bandits was hiding in the dense forest. Zhang Erhe's face was blue and purple, and he was as thin as a match. Sure enough, his mouth of steel teeth was very conspicuous.
Ni Dalong caressed the scar on his face and glanced at him. "Are you in a hurry?"
Zhang Erhe said, "How can I not be in a hurry! That person said that this person's background is not small, so the things he carries with him must be very valuable. Furthermore, that person also promised that there will be other rewards after the deed is done! "
"Hmph, that's strange!" Li Shaoqi was white and fat. When he squinted his eyes, only a thin line could be seen. He looked quite sinister and crafty.
Zhang Erhe said, "Third Brother, what do you mean by that?"
Li Shaoqi said, "Who is that person? Why would he promise such a heavy reward? We do have some unique ways of doing business with Big Brother, but if we offend someone we shouldn't offend, we'll still die. Big Brother, in my opinion, it's better not to do this deal. "
Ni Dalong's face turned fierce. He suddenly raised his prosthetic arm and smashed it on Li Shaoqi's face, pressing him into the mud. "What kind of person do you think I, Ni Dalong, am? Since I've accepted the deal, I'll do it to the end. Otherwise, everyone in the pugilistic world will think that I'm susceptible to soft tactics and afraid of hard tactics. How will I survive then? "
"Big Brother has the final say …" Li Shaoqi said in a muffled voice. His face slowly relaxed. He rubbed his face and gritted his teeth as he sat up. Seeing Zhang Erhe laughing at his misfortune, he said coldly, "Second Brother, you just want to finish the deal as soon as possible so you can go back and have fun with your new concubine! Look at how skinny you are. Sooner or later, you'll die on a woman's belly! "
"Heh, at least I'm better than you. If you don't have fun with women, you're just wasting your life. If I don't have a woman, I might as well not live … "
"Shut up!" Ni Dalong suddenly raised his hand. The two brothers immediately shut their mouths, knowing that this was a sign of action. Sure enough, Ni Dalong then made a hand gesture. "Second Brother, go and pull the net as usual. We must intercept it in one go. If this fat sheep escapes, I'll chop you all into pieces!"
"Alright, it can't escape. Big Brother, just watch!" Zhang Erhe swung his thin and weak arms and led his men to pull the interception net to the other side of the river. This river was about 40 steps wide.
These bandits were used to intercepting merchant ships, so their movements were very skilled. Soon, they swam to the other side and set up the net.
The net was not an ordinary net. It was woven from a kind of Meteorite Beast's silk, which could block ships sailing in the Spiritual Realm. Because the process was complicated, it was expensive. The net wire was very thick, and each wire had a buckle on the outermost part, making it easy to grab. If there were ancient trees on both sides of the river, it naturally wouldn't take much effort. However, this river bank had been on fire two years ago, so the newly grown trees could only be regarded as saplings. They couldn't withstand it at all.
The bandits on both sides of the river grabbed the net buckle, all nervously waiting for Ni Dalong's orders. Because the tracking talisman was in his hands, they had to listen to his orders. If anyone reacted too slowly and didn't manage to stop it, he would really chop them all up.
"Ready, three, two, one, pull!"
The bandits shouted in unison, as if they had been injected with chicken blood. The net suddenly tightened, and there was a muffled hum, like the sound of a fish rapidly swinging its tail underwater. They were all delighted, knowing that they had hit the target. The Void Breaking Shuttle had been stopped. Next, it was time to wrestle, so they immediately used all their strength.
The Void Breaking Shuttle was caught in the net and returned from the Spiritual Realm to the real world. The remaining force still pushed the bandits forward by hundreds of steps, and the "saplings" on both sides of the river were seriously damaged.
"Kill them all, don't leave a single one alive!" Ni Dalong let out a furious roar, and with a jolt of his wooden prosthesis, he leaped into the air like a roc and landed on the deck with a loud bang. Both of his hands were in the shape of claws, and he waved them in the air, tearing several sailors into pieces with his terrifying bloody claws.
The smell of blood successfully aroused the murderous nature of the bandits. They screamed and rushed to the deck, pulling out their weapons, turning into bloodthirsty demons and killing without any explanation.
Everyone on the deck was quickly killed. Ni Dalong rushed up and kicked open the cabin door, shouting to the people inside, "All of you, come out and accept your death!"
"Noisy!" Suddenly, a cold voice came from inside, like a ruthless person who had broken through the eighteen levels of hell.
Ni Dalong was shocked and suddenly pulled over a subordinate beside him. He saw a sword light shoot out, and with a "chi" sound, the subordinate was cut in half in front of him. Before he had time to compose himself, the remaining power of the sword light didn't diminish, and it sent him flying.
