The room was filled with smoke. A large group of people were gambling around a big table and smoking a very strange kind of cigarette. It must be a kind of drug in this world.
"Lord Dog, she's here," the wolf head said respectfully.
At the table, a bald strong man looked up. There were two scars on his face. One of them was from top to bottom, so he was blind in one eye. There was a white iron egg in his eye socket, which looked very scary. But his other eye was staring at Tang Xiaoxi. When he saw the girl's face and figure, his eyes lit up. He laughed and said, "Hou San 'er, you're really lucky. Such a good girl has fallen into your hands!"
Hou San 'er smiled and said, "Lord Dog, I hope you can put in a good word for me in front of the Supreme Dragon Chief."
"Haha!"
Master Hou laughed and said, "Don't talk nonsense. After you give this girl to me, I'll recommend you to the Supreme Dragon Chief. You'll be promoted three times. It's not a problem for you to be a bear head."
"Thank you, Lord Dog!"
"Hmm? Who is this person? He's a new face. "
"Reporting to Lord Dog, this little brother is a friend I recently recruited."
"Oh, oh, I see. Promote him to be a snake head."
"Yes, thank you, Lord Dog."
As he spoke, Lord Dog walked over with a greedy look in his eyes. He reached out to touch Tang Xiaoxi's beautiful face and said, "It seems that Lord Dog is going to be a groom tonight."
Lin Muyu's gaze swept across the room. There were a total of 12 people in the room. Other than Elder Dog, who had a tiger's head, there was also a whale's head and two shark's heads. The rest of them were all small fry. All of them had arrogant expressions on their faces. To be able to rise to his current position, he must have defiled many young ladies. Hence, Lin Muyu's killing intent was instantly ignited.
"Wow …"
Suddenly, a chill spread out with Lin Muyu at the center. The Saint Realm quickly enveloped the surroundings, causing everyone to be speechless. He smiled at Lord Dog and raised his hand to push away the hand that was touching Tang Xiaoxi. "Lord Dog, do you know who the girl you're about to take advantage of is?"
Under the pressure, Lord Dog's bald head was covered in sweat. He could barely speak, and his voice was very hoarse. "I … I don't know. You … Who are you?"
Lin Muyu gently lifted the grey robe in front of her chest, revealing a glittering golden Purple Yin Flower. She smiled and asked, "Do you recognize this?"
The Purple Yin Flower was the emblem of the Qin Family that only members of the royal family and the military could wear. The golden Purple Yin Flower was the emblem of the Qin Family that could only be worn by Deputy Generals and Chiliarchs. Behind the Purple Yin Flower, there was a golden six-pointed star for Chiliarchs, two stars for Captaincy, and three stars for Generals and Generals. Although Lin Muyu didn't have any stars, having a golden Purple Yin Flower was enough to prove her identity.
Lord Dog's body trembled. "You … You …"
"We don't have any other intentions."
Lin Muyu's eyes turned cold. She smiled and said, "Bring me to see the Dragon Head."
"Don't even think about it!" Lord Dog growled.
"Really?"
Lin Muyu suddenly raised her hand and pulled out the Stars Sword from her robe. The bright light illuminated the whole room. Her figure flashed and disappeared. In the blink of an eye, there was only a pile of corpses left in the room. Only Lord Dog and Hou San 'er were left from the Bronze Dagger Gang. They didn't even let out a scream during the process of killing.
"You … Who exactly are you?" Lord Dog asked, his heart filled with despair.
Tang Xiaoxi laughed. "He's a soldier of the Empire, and he's also someone who can wield the aura of a Saint-level expert. How many high-ranking military officers in the Empire have reached the Saint-level, and how many of them are so young? Can't you guess?"
Lord Dog's face turned even uglier. "Could it be … Could it be Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning?"
Lin Muyu smiled. "I'm Lin Muyu, ranked second in Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning. Lord Dog, as long as you bring me to see the Dragon Head, I'll spare your life. Otherwise, I'll kill you and find other people from the Bronze Dagger Gang to see Liu Jun."
"You … You …"
Lord Dog's breathing was very rapid. The people outside didn't notice the change in the room. Even if they did, they would still die under Lin Muyu's sword if they rushed in. How could a motley crew be a match for a Holy King? Moreover, the identity of the girl who came with Lin Muyu was even more suspicious. Looking at her incomparably calm appearance, her strength was probably not inferior to Lin Muyu's.
For a moment, countless thoughts flew through Lord Dog's mind. In the end, he could only choose despair. The weak couldn't beat the strong. If he still wanted to cause trouble at this time, he would simply be seeking his own death.
"Sigh …"
After a sigh, Lord Dog said, "Could it be that Ze Tian Palace has already set their eyes on the Bronze Dagger Gang?"
"It's not Ze Tian Palace. It's me who has set my eyes on the Bronze Dagger Gang." Lin Muyu said indifferently, "You guys go around robbing women. Your sins are so heavy. It's time for you to receive your retribution. Besides the Dragon Head Liu Jun, who else can do it?"
"Other than me, there are two tiger heads, nine whale heads. You just killed one. There are seventeen lizard heads and even more leopard heads."
"How many people does the Bronze Dagger Gang have?"
"I've already recorded them. There are nearly seven thousand of them."
"…" Lin Muyu's heart turned cold. She couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. There were so many people. How could she catch them all in one net? This group of people from the Bronze Dagger Gang wasn't as easy to deal with as Situ Sen's Heaven Execution Society. Most of the people from the Bronze Dagger Gang had killed people before. Moreover, each of them had a lot of sins. Lin Muyu didn't plan to let any of them go. If she didn't catch them all in one net, this operation would be considered a failure.
"How can I see the Dragon Head?" Lin Muyu continued to ask.
Lord Dog was a little dispirited and said, "Milord, we … we're just trading people to make a living. Please don't kill us all …"
"Stop talking nonsense. I'm asking you how can I see Liu Jun. Where is he?"
"The Dragon Head … he …"
"Stop hemming and hawing." Lin Muyu spread her hand, and the King's Battle Flame danced fiercely. She said, "Lord Dog, do you think I can't bear to kill you?"
Lord Dog's whole body trembled, and his face became even paler. "The Dragon Head lives in a manor in the south of the city. He … he spent seven hundred thousand gold coins to buy a manor from a high official half a year ago. He also bought many female slaves to keep in the manor for fun. In addition, the Dragon Head spent money to build a private army. It's also in the manor. There are about three thousand soldiers with excellent equipment. You … you should give up …"
"Three thousand soldiers?" Lin Muyu smiled. "My Brave Dragon Legion has seventy thousand soldiers. Is it enough to encircle and annihilate him?"
"You!"
At this moment, Lord Dog understood that Lin Muyu was determined to uproot the Copper Dagger Gang. He sighed and said, "Milord, if you can promise me one thing, I can help you."
"Speak."
"I have an old mother, four sons, and three concubines … If I help you, you can't hurt them no matter what. Also, you must spare my life. Otherwise, I won't cooperate even if I have to fight to the death."
"I won't hurt the sinners. Don't worry. Can you tell me now?"
"En, if Milord wants to uproot the Copper Dagger Gang, you have to do it at noon the day after tomorrow. Because the day after tomorrow is the Dragon Head's birthday, he has invited many nobles of Lanyan City to his manor. More than eighty percent of the Copper Dagger Gang's members will attend. As long as Milord surround the manor, you can capture them in one fell swoop."
After saying this, Lord Dog softly slumped on the chair. It was as if these words had exhausted all his strength. He stared at Lin Muyu and said, "Milord, you can either not do it, or you have to destroy the entire Copper Dagger Gang. I, Lord Dog, have done this kind of thing that will let the gang down. I don't want to be chased by the remaining people of the Copper Dagger Gang."
"En, I understand. Don't worry."
Lin Muyu took a deep breath. It seemed that she didn't need to meet the Dragon Head anymore. If she wanted to meet him, she could directly use force.
…
In the wee hours of the morning, after dealing with Lord Dog's "evidence," she summoned Wei Chou, Situ Sen, and the rest and issued a secret order. The Longdan Army Camp quietly left the city during the night. Nearly seventy thousand soldiers of the Longdan Army Camp were already outside the city. Bai Yin brought a group of people to control Lord Dog and waited for the Dragon Head Liu Jun's banquet the next day.
When night fell, Lin Muyu also left the city and brought Tang Xiaoxi to set up camp in the Longdan Army Camp outside the city.
Wei Chou, Situ Sen, and the other Captaincy of the Dragon's Courage Legion were all there. Each of them was filled with excitement. This time, the encirclement of the Copper Dagger Gang's manor could be said to be carrying out justice on behalf of the heavens. This group of righteous generals were filled with anticipation.
Suddenly, the voice of a messenger came from outside the tent. "Commander, someone requests to see you."
"Who is it?"
"I don't know. It's a woman. She won't say, but she has the Empress's Golden Token."
"Oh?"
Tang Xiaoxi said, "Maybe it's Shangguan Jingyue?"
"I don't know. Let her in!"
After the tent's door was opened, a graceful beauty wearing a long robe walked in. After lifting the cloak, a beautiful face was revealed. She inhaled the aroma of the food in the tent and smiled. "It smells so good. Is there a share for me?"
In an instant, Wei Chou, Situ Sen, Fengxi, and the rest were scared out of their wits. They rolled away from the table, knelt on one knee on the carpet, and said respectfully, "Greetings, Your Highness!"
The person who came was none other than Qin Yin.
"Xiao Yin, why are you here?" Lin Muyu smiled in surprise.
"Hmph!" Qin Yin pouted and said with some annoyance, "You're still talking about it? How could you not tell me about such a big commotion? Fortunately, Little Xi told me … I've already received some information. Many of the people attending Liu Jun's banquet tomorrow are very difficult to deal with. Perhaps if I go with you, I'll be able to resolve a lot of unnecessary trouble."
"Hmm, that's good too. Come, have supper with us?"
"Okay. If Brother Yu didn't mention it, I would be embarrassed to take the initiative to eat …"
"Aiyo, why are you so shy?" Lin Muyu looked at her teasingly.
Qin Yin's pretty face turned even redder. She said to Qin Yan, who was behind her, "Ah Yan, bring people back to Ze Tian Palace Hall. Don't let anyone know that I'm not in Ze Tian Palace Hall. Do you understand?"
Qin Yan placed his hand on the hilt of his sword and said hesitantly, "Cousin, you don't want me to follow the Longdan Army Camp to annihilate the Bronze Dagger Gang?"
"No way. Quickly return to Ze Tian Palace Hall. Just treat it as helping cousin!"
"Alright then. Men, leave a hundred Imperial Guards to protect His Highness. The rest follow me back to Ze Tian Palace Hall!"
