Upon hearing this.

The group of people opposite immediately became furious.

"What did you say?!!!"

"This is simply lawless!"

"Isn't this telling us to kill each other?!"

"Canoe Gang's Li Xian, do you know who we are? Do you know the consequences of doing this?!"

They questioned Li Xian indignantly.

However, no matter how angry they were, they didn't dare to attack Li Xian. After all, the difference in strength was obvious; attacking would be seeking their own demise.

It would be best if they could force the other party to retreat through words.

Li Xian sneered, "What are your identities? Do they matter to me?"

"You..."

The group wanted to say more, but Li Xian rudely interrupted them.

"My patience is limited. I'm only giving you one chance. If you don't want it, then all of you die!"

His words were decisive.

It seemed there was no room for negotiation!

In the crowd, some people's eyes began to waver, and a strange atmosphere and panic began to spread.

"Canoe Gang's Li Xian, don't push your luck too far. It won't do you any good to truly offend my lord!"

From the crowd, the middle-aged man leading them made a final struggle.

However...

Squelch!

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh rang out.

He lowered his head in disbelief, looking at the bloody tip of a knife protruding from his chest.

"Xiao Wu, it was you..."

He turned his head to look at the face that was once young and innocent, now filled with ferocious cruelty.

This Xiao Wu was someone he had personally brought up.

And now, he was the first to attack him!

"Leader Cheng, your death is better than my death!"

Xiao Wu said, then forcefully pulled his sword tip back.

Those who refused to accept reality died the fastest!

With Leader Cheng's death, this slaughter officially began.

For a time, sounds of fighting and screams echoed one after another.

Li Xian stood not far away with a smile, quietly watching this scene of colleagues turning on each other.

After the dust settled, the young man named Xiao Wu became the last lucky survivor.

"I... won!"

Covered in blood, he held his knees and said shakily.

Li Xian turned around, looking at his blood-stained face, and said with a smile.

"Li will keep his word. Since you managed to survive, I will naturally let you go!"

"Th... Thank you..." Xiao Wu said weakly.

"It's just..."

Li Xian paused, not continuing.

Xiao Wu's heart tightened, "Just what...?"

What trick are you planning now?

Li Xian smiled and said, "It's just that if you go back alone now, will the lord behind you let you off?"

Xiao Wu froze for a moment.

Then he understood what he meant.

Yes, Governor Zheng would not allow any loose ends, nor could he tolerate his subordinates killing each other!

His return would also mean death!

Thinking of this outcome, he trembled like a sieve.

This Canoe Gang's Li Xian!

He didn't just want to kill people!

To strike at the heart!

This person is so vicious!

"Hahaha... Let's go, I'll spare your life!"

Li Xian laughed, his figure flickered, and he disappeared from his original spot.

"It's just that whether you can walk out of Yangzhou City alive depends on whether Governor Zheng is willing to let you go!"

His voice echoed from afar!

Xiao Wu knelt on the ground, his face full of pain.

To survive, he had no choice!

Meanwhile, in Yangzhou City, at the Governor's Mansion.

The atmosphere here was still joyous for the moment.

Governor Zheng sat in the main seat, accepting all the flattery and toasts from the guests below.

"Congratulations, Governor, after today, your great achievement will be complete!"

Unable to find the book by its title, you can try searching for the author, perhaps the name has changed!

"Yes, yes, it's truly a great deed for the people of Yangzhou City that Governor Zheng can now subdue the Canoe Gang!"

"This accomplishment is unprecedented and will surely be recorded in the annals of Yangzhou City!"

"Indeed, indeed, may the generations of Yangzhou City remember the Governor's unparalleled feat today!"

"Congratulations, Governor, congratulations!"

"Hahahaha..."

Zheng Ningji accepted all the flattery from below.

As long as the Buddha Son killed Li Xian of the Canoe Gang, the remaining disciples of the Canoe Gang would be like chickens and dogs, unable to withstand a single blow.

In other words, controlling the Canoe Gang was only a matter of time for him.

Therefore, what these people said was all correct.

Everything was just waiting for good news from the Buddha Son at West Lake.

Being able to subdue the Canoe Gang was a crucial step for both his career and his future plans.

How could he not be proud?

Thinking of this, Zheng Ningji's face flushed with pride. He raised his wine cup and stood up.

"Come, I thank you all for your kind words, officials!"

"I toast you all!"

The people below feigned fear and echoed.

"Absolutely not!"

"It should be us toasting you, sir!"

Zheng Ningji listened and laughed heartily, then tilted his head and drank it all in one gulp.

As soon as he put down his cup.

A close attendant ran in with a panicked expression, walked up to Zheng Ningji, bowed, and whispered in his ear.

"What!!!"

No one knew what was said, but Zheng Ningji's face changed drastically, and he stood up abruptly.

Seeing his reaction, the guests below were startled and dared not make a sound, not knowing what had happened.

Zheng Ningji's expression shifted constantly.

Shock, anger, disbelief...

It made everyone below feel uneasy.

Finally, Zheng Ningji calmed down.

His expression was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Today's banquet ends here, everyone disperse!"

With that, he left the guests and went straight back to the inner courtyard.

The guests were full of doubt and began to whisper amongst themselves.

"Why is Lord Zheng suddenly so angry? What could it be?"

"Could it be...?"

"The situation at West Lake has changed?"

Some people had already begun to guess what was happening.

"Everyone, I'll take my leave first."

Someone hastily bid farewell, planning to gather information as soon as he returned.

If the situation at West Lake had changed, and a Buddha Son from White Dragon Temple was the one who died, the Canoe Gang would be unstoppable from now on.

The others understood and also began to leave one after another.

"Let's go, let's go, I'm leaving too!"

"Hey, Lord Liang, I'll ride in your carriage!"

"My horse is giving birth today, so it's inconvenient. Ride with someone else!"

"Lord Liang, isn't your horse male?!"

"His wife gave birth, he's busy today!"

"..."

This is just ridiculous!

The news of Li Xian of the Canoe Gang defeating the Buddha Son of White Dragon Temple.

Like the wind, with wings, it spread throughout Yangzhou City in just half an hour.

"My heavens, the Buddha Son of White Dragon Temple is actually dead???"

"Real or fake, I don't believe it!"

"His body has already been carried back by the Canoe Gang. You can go and see if you don't believe it!"

"Don't disbelieve, I saw it with my own eyes. The Buddha Son of White Dragon Temple is indeed dead, Li Xian of the Canoe Gang is truly strong!"

"That's right, the scene of the battle was terrifying. Li Xian of the Canoe Gang is too powerful!"

"We can only say that the Buddha Son of White Dragon Temple did not die unjustly!"

"Yeah, I still feel my blood boiling when I think about it now!"

"It's truly wonderful that our Yangzhou City has produced such a master!"

"Ahem, I heard that Li Xian is not from Yangzhou City."

"That's right, I know. Li Xian is from our Bailiu City. I'm his neighbor."

"You're talking nonsense, I'm his cousin!"

"I can vouch for it, Li Xian is from our Nanfeng City, it's absolutely true!"

"Get lost!"
