Chapter 12: Solving the Dihu Club Branch
The closer you get to the Dihu Society, the fewer people there are. When you arrive at the Dihu Society branch, you find that the surrounding houses have been uninhabited for a long time, and there is no one guarding the branch gate.
The architectural arrangement of this branch is similar to that of a courtyard house, but the houses are much more spacious. Lin Mo was about to implement his extermination plan from the first house on the right. When he reached the door, he heard the sound of a woman crying and shouting. His face changed and he kicked the door open, discovering that several members of the Dihu Society were abusing a woman.
After Lin Mo entered the room, the first thing he saw was the eyes of the abused woman, numbness, pain, and fear. When Lin Mo pulled out the bloody knife, the woman looked at Lin Mo with a hint of joy and relief.
Before everyone could react, Lin Mo performed the Nine Revolutions Technique at the fastest speed, passing these gang members one by one, waving the blood knife in his hand continuously. When he walked in front of the woman, the heads of several people behind him flew up one by one, and blood stained the ground. Because of the special effects of the blood knife's moves, the blood began to evaporate. The last gang member who was abusing the woman turned his head in astonishment, and he saw a pair of eyes.
Endless indifference and boundless murderous intent, in this rising blood, are like a pair of evil ghost's eyes, these are the evil ghost that took his life.
Then, the gang member was stabbed to death by a blood-red blade in the heart in fear.
Lin Mo picked up the body, threw it aside, and took a piece of clothing from the side and covered the woman with it.
The woman looked at the knife in Lin Mo's hand without any fear. Instead, she felt a sense of pleasure when looking at the many corpses in front of her.
He stood up, not caring about the spring light on his body, knelt down and kowtowed, saying:
"Thank you so much, benefactor!"
Lin Mo wrapped the woman in clothes and asked, "Besides you, are there other women?"
The woman replied, "They are all in a cellar under the headquarters of the Earth Tiger Society. Every time, the people from the headquarters would clean us up and give us to the members of the branch. After the people from the branch had humiliated us, they would lock us in the cellar again. Please save them, benefactor!"
After saying this, without waiting for Lin Mo to answer, he picked up a sword next to the corpse and stabbed it into the chest.
Lin Mo looked at this scene with complicated eyes. Should he ask her why she committed suicide? For a woman who had experienced all these tragedies, would it be better for her to continue living in such a social environment? Moreover, she couldn't even remember her hometown. It might take great courage to survive, but what she would suffer after the courage might be even more cruel.
He was a man who had no control over the world, and he was about to leave Jinyang City. He had no way to make any promises, not even to protect himself.
The woman said with her last breath: "At the beginning, I just wanted to live, but now I find that living is more difficult. I am tired, very tired." After that, the woman closed her eyes.
Lin Mo turned around expressionlessly, tightly grasped the bloody knife in his hand, and killed all the remaining personnel in this branch. Then a prompt appeared in the system.
"The main mission has been completed. Do you want to add more people to increase the settlement reward?"
Lin Mo replied: "Yes, I want to add up the number of people."
"Ding, the main storyline is being extended. The mission rewards will be finally calculated after a time limit of six hours."
Lin Mo ignored the system's voice and walked directly to another branch. At this time, there were two guards at the entrance of the other branch. When Lin Mo lowered his head and approached, the guard said, "Don't be blind. Don't barge in everywhere. This is a branch of the Earth Tiger Society. Boy, it's not too late to get out now."
Lin Mo raised his head and drew out his bloody knife. The guard immediately felt something was wrong and shouted, "Someone is here to cause trouble! Come quickly! Come quickly~!"
Before he could finish his words, Lin Mo slashed his throat twice. Before another guard could even start to shout, Lin Mo stabbed him in the heart. Lin Mo didn't even look at the corpses in front of him, but just stood quietly at the entrance of the Earth Tiger Club.
After a while, because of the guard's shouting, more than 20 people rushed out of the room. The highest level of cultivation was the second level of marrow refining, and the lowest was the seventh level of body refining. Each of them had a weapon in their hands. The leader who was at the second level of marrow refining said:
"Boy, you are courting death. You dare to come to the Dihu Club to mess things up. Come on, guys, chop him up together!"
Immediately, four or five people picked up their weapons and walked towards Lin Mo. Lin Mo took a few steps forward, still with a cold expression on his face, without saying a word. When he passed by a person, he blocked the attack with his hand, and with a swipe of his bloody knife, he took the person's life.
At the same time, he stepped over the corpses, slashed a few times, and continued to walk towards the leader who was speaking. The few people behind him still maintained the posture of rushing towards Lin Mo with weapons raised high. In an instant, one by one, they covered their throats and fell to the ground and died.
The leader discovered that Lin Mo had great martial arts skills, but his cultivation was only one or two levels stronger than his, so he called on the remaining twenty people to rush forward. Swords, knives, sticks , guns, hammers, axes, and all kinds of weapons attacked Lin Mo's body. Lin Mo performed the Nine Revolutions to dodge while using the Bodhi Sword Technique in his hand to block one by one, creating a stalemate.
After a few moves, Lin Mo pushed aside the spear in front of him and used his most skilled Blood Killing Knife. The scarlet blade chopped off the gangster's head. Lin Mo whispered, "This is the first one."
Although the sound was small, the gang members around could hear it very clearly. For a moment, everyone started to fight desperately and their moves became more fierce. Lin Mo kept dodging under the siege of the crowd and became more and more proficient in the use of the Nine Revolutions Movement.
The blood knife in his hand no longer blocked, but chopped directly at the opponent's vitals. With two clicks, two more heads flew up. Lin Mo turned around and slashed the throat of a gang member, and continued:
"The second one, the third one, the fourth one." The voice was filled with a strong suppressed murderous intent. The gang members around him began to feel cold in their hearts.
Gradually, everyone's attack on Lin Mo became weaker and weaker, and all that could be heard was Lin Mo's low moan: "Five, six, seven... fifteen."
The remaining five people then realized that there were only five of them left out of the original twenty gang members, and there were also some scars on the bodies of these five people. Lin Mo was unscathed, and they could only see the blood blade, which was getting redder and redder, quietly dripping blood. The five people wanted to retreat, but Lin Mo blocked the door, and they were helpless.
Lin Mo saw that everyone was about to retreat, so he used the killing move of the Blood Killing Knife Technique, and a sea of blood appeared. A large area of blood-colored steam began to spread, gradually covering the vision of the five people. While everyone's vision was damaged, Lin Mo quickly used the Blood Killing Knife Technique and cut the throats of three people one after another.
At this time, the two strongest men on the other side had discovered that they had no way to retreat, so they raised their weapons and launched a suicidal attack, each of which was ferocious and deadly. Lin Mo then switched back to using the Bodhi sword technique, either blocking or parrying, and looking for opportunities to counterattack.
Due to the evaporation of the blood-colored steam, the bleeding speed of the two men's wounds increased. After more than ten moves, the faces of the two men became paler and paler. The moves in their hands became fierce but also gradually weaker. Lin Mo found the flaw in an instant, and the bright crimson sword light brought out two blood-colored streaks again. The two men died with their eyes glaring in anger in unwillingness.
Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but secretly hate himself for being too careless just now. He was blinded by the momentary murderous intent and insisted on solving the problem head-on. His strength was far higher than his realm, but his internal energy was not easy to sustain a long battle.
So he went into the hall of the branch and started to use the Yi Jin Jinguan Chapter to regulate his breathing. Fortunately, the Yi Jin Jinguan Chapter had a fast recovery speed and after running it for a few small cycles, he was almost healed.
Lin Mo then searched the branch to see if there was anything of high value. After finding a secret door, he only discovered most of the silver and some medicinal pills.
Most of the system tests showed a one-star score. I took a few pills and my condition improved a lot.
After regulating his breathing again, he closed his eyes and rested for a while. Seeing that the sky outside was gradually getting darker, he knew that he really didn't have much time left. After his physical strength was almost recovered, he walked towards the headquarters of the Earth Tiger Society.
The Hu family was quite lively at this time. In addition to the six swords and the four people from the seven families that Lin Mo had met, even the two people from the Nine Nether Evil Way that he had met in the restaurant before were at the Hu family. In addition, there was also Tang Yu, a master on the Tang Sect's human list.
Meng Ting looked outside the door and found that no one should come. When she told the housekeeper to close the door and start the banquet, an evil man wearing a blood-stained shirt and a pair of gloves emitting colorful light came to the door and said:
"I am Xu Tianfu from the Blood Demon Sect. I heard that some friends are here, so I came uninvited. I wonder if the Hu family welcomes you."
Meng Ting was suddenly shocked. This should be the bloodthirsty Xu Tianfu who was ranked 98th on the Human List. There was a bloody aura about him. Although Xu Tianfu's questions seemed polite, there was a suppressed madness in his eyes from time to time, which made Meng Ting feel a little afraid.
Meng Ting calmed down and said, "The Hu family will of course warmly welcome a master from the Human Ranking. Please come in, Mr. Xu."
Xu Tianfu bowed with a wicked smile and stepped into the Hu family step by step.
