Night fell.

Anyuan Town.

The noisy footsteps outside had disappeared, but Shi Yi had not left.

Because there was another person in his room.

The person moved very quietly, but he still heard it, and saw it!

That red Bloodline Power was very conspicuous.

Although the Blood Essence fluctuated, it was definitely a Flesh and Blood Realm Martial Student.

"My home does not welcome outsiders. If you leave now, I can pretend nothing happened."

Shi Yi said slowly.

He could guess that the other party was from one of the three major gangs in Anyuan Town. No matter who it was, he didn't want to get involved.

The person hiding in the dark became nervous upon hearing this, then emerged from the shadows.

"Brother Shi Yi, I was forced to hide here. I mean no harm."

A figure appeared. It was Jiao Darong, the Hall Master of the Five Tigers Gang, whom Shi Yi had seen before.

At this moment, he was covering a stomach wound with one hand and holding a long saber with the other, slowly approaching Shi Yi.

His pale face wore a fake smile, making him look harmless.

"Pew pew pew~"

When the other party approached within five meters, Shi Yi suddenly drew a silenced pistol from his怀.

He instantly emptied the magazine.

Jiao Darong felt something was wrong and instinctively tried to dodge, but he couldn't move.

Because he had completely lost consciousness.

Bullet after bullet pierced his head in the blink of an eye.

Within seven steps, the gun was fast and accurate.

"I know you mean no harm now!"

Shi Yi reloaded the magazine, put two more shots into Jiao Darong's chest, and then said slowly.

If Jiao Darong had meant no harm from the beginning, he should have voluntarily retreated after Shi Yi spoke, instead of approaching him while talking!

The gang members outside had not gone far. Jiao Darong was clearly concerned about this and feared Shi Yi would shout and attract attention, so he wanted to control Shi Yi first.

As for what the other party would do after controlling him, Shi Yi couldn't guess, nor did he want to.

He disliked trouble, but if trouble came to his door, he would deal with it all!

"It's delaying my return."

Shi Yi waited for a while. After the Bloodline Power on Jiao Darong completely dissipated, he took out a corpse bag from the room, put Jiao Darong's body into it, and cleaned up the traces left by Jiao Darong.

Including the bloodstains he dropped along the way when he approached.

Using the Double Pupils to handle these traces was very clean, and besides, it wasn't the first time he had done this!

Before long, all traces were cleaned up.

"Big brother, that guy named Jiao should be hiding around here. Should we search house by house?"

There was noisy sound outside again. It was obvious that the people who were tracking had returned after failing to find Jiao Darong's trace.

"Slap!"

"Be clear-headed. This area is near the Anyang Martial Arts School, and the nearby residences are more or less related to the Anyang Martial Arts School."

"If we openly intrude into so many residences, do you think the government doesn't care?"

"Or do you not take the Anyang Martial Arts School seriously?"

"If you want to die, don't drag me down with you."

"Let's go catch the other members of the Five Tigers Gang. That's also a considerable merit."

A slap sound was heard, and then the footsteps outside retreated again.

The street outside returned to peace.

At this moment, Shi Yi, carrying the corpse bag and tools, walked into a separate room, and then his figure disappeared within the house!

Under a big tree outside Anyuan Town.

Shi Yi placed the corpse bag under the tree.

This big tree had grown quite well recently, with lush branches and leaves. It seemed to have absorbed a lot of nutrients.

"Come, let me give you some more nutrients so you can grow even better."

Shi Yi dug a hole under the big tree.

He was already somewhat accustomed to this kind of thing!

He had originally planned to focus purely on his cultivation and ignore everything else, but trouble still found him.

"Grow a pair next time. Don't choose my place to run to."

"The feng shui there isn't suitable for you."

Shi Yi placed Jiao Darong's corpse into the pit and then filled it in.

He leveled the ground, leaving no trace.

Beside him lay the silver, banknotes, and long saber he had plundered from Jiao Darong.

These were all external items he intended to take with him.

"Looks like the Five Tigers Gang isn't having an easy time!"

"But what does that have to do with me?"

Shi Yi pouted, completely unconcerned.

Night was the best time to bury bodies, as it concealed everything in darkness.

"It's getting late, time to head back and rest!"

After the teleportation function cooled down, Shi Yi's figure vanished once more!

A gentle breeze blew, causing the leaves of the large tree to gently flutter down, returning to the embrace of Mother Earth and bringing everything back to peace.

The residence of Anyuan Town's Town Magistrate, Zhu Zhuoyu.

"Sir, the leader of the Five Tigers Gang, Shangguan Hu, is dead. The remaining members of the Five Tigers Gang are being dealt with by the Jinyang Gang and Blood Sword Hall."

"Do we need to intervene?"

Captain Xu Tianlei appeared at Zhu Zhuoyu's residence and asked respectfully.

He wasn't the only one present; constables from the yamen were also in the vicinity.

The Town Magistrate Zhu Zhuoyu and his subordinates were already aware of tonight's events.

"No need. Those people have all joined gangs. If they survive, they'll only cause trouble. It's better to clear them out."

"Shangguan Hu colluded with outsiders, intending to challenge us. He truly had no idea of his own limitations."

"This time, it's fortunate that people from the Divine Constable Bureau came and delayed them for three days. Otherwise, it would have been quite troublesome to handle."

"Keep a closer eye on the Jinyang Gang and Blood Sword Hall from now on. If they have any other ambitions, find replacements for them!"

Zhu Zhuoyu shook his head slightly.

The current chaos in Anyuan Town was also a result of his deliberate inaction.

Initially, Zhu Zhuoyu hadn't paid much attention to the struggle for control of the official roads among the three major gangs in Anyuan Town.

This was because the control of the official roads they were fighting over was only within the gangs' domain; ultimately, it was still subject to government regulation.

However, his informants within the gangs later discovered something new.

The Five Tigers Gang was contacting a faction in Ninghe County, intending to use them to completely annihilate the Jinyang Gang and Blood Sword Hall. Afterward, they planned to allow that faction to enter Anyuan Town and challenge the government.

Anyuan Town, being at a crossroads of the official routes, held considerable value.

Upon learning this, Zhu Zhuoyu arranged a counterattack. The arrival of the Divine Constable Bureau's people, who were searching for a Buddhist Treasure, coincidentally bought him more time.

With this interval, he also arranged for someone to intercept the faction from Ninghe County and then instructed the Jinyang Gang and Blood Sword Hall to deal with the Five Tigers Gang together.

During this process, he also utilized his hidden agents within the Five Tigers Gang, causing them to be defeated even faster.

Hearing about this outcome now was within Zhu Zhuoyu's expectations.

"Tomorrow, Anyuan Town will return to its former peace!"

Zhu Zhuoyu said slowly, gazing at the dark night sky.

"Yes, Sir."

Captain Xu Tianlei replied respectfully.

He naturally understood Zhu Zhuoyu's intention.

This was a directive for the Jinyang Gang and Blood Sword Hall to behave themselves from now on and not continue the fighting.

"It's getting late, you should all go back and rest!"

Zhu Zhuoyu waved his hand.

With everything settled, there was no longer a need for Xu Tianlei to stand guard.

Xu Tianlei and the others had appeared here to prevent any issues with the plan, such as Shangguan Hu escaping and threatening him. Now, there was no longer any need to worry.
