The darkness of [Ink Dye] is so profound that no light can penetrate it.

Therefore, based on the principle of sensory compensation, Hei Jinbao was able to hear Lu Bai's words clearly.

Before Hei Jinbao could reply, Lou Yunyi, standing at Lu Bai's feet, couldn't help but speak up, "Lü... Brother Lu Bai, right? Hei Jinbao is a madman. If you intend to deal with him, my Arid Tiger Hall definitely give you our full support!"

Hearing this, Hei Jinbao was so angry he almost ground his teeth to powder. "Huang Hu Lou! Don't you have any shame?!"

Since he couldn't see anything in the dark, Lou Yunyi simply looked in any direction.

"Hei Jinbao, I hope you face reality. In Chikan Bay now, only Brother Lu Bai is qualified to be the Spokesperson."

Hei Jinbao really wanted to ask what kind of qualifications this was, but he opened his mouth and then gave up on asking, changing the subject instead.

"Fine, if that's how you want to think, there's nothing I can do..."

Hei Jinbao was speaking when he suddenly lunged forward.

He is indeed short-tempered and easily angered, but he can also calm down very quickly.

His earlier outburst of cursing was partly to vent his anger, and partly to determine the location of Lu Bai and Lou Yunyi by listening to their voices.

Unfortunately, what he did didn't really make much sense.

"Even when the two of you teamed up, you couldn't hit me. Now that we're in complete darkness, why do you think a sneak attack will work?"

Lu Bai's tone was exceptionally gentle, as if a tutor were pointing out mistakes in a student's assignment.

The sound reached Hei Jinbao's ears, making his heart sink.

But there was no turning back once the arrow was released; in anger, he held his breath and quickened the pace of his attack.

"You've entered your rebellious phase."

Lu Bai commented with a smile, his hands moving quite quickly.

[Flash Time] was activated silently. He sidestepped Hei Jinbao's attack and threw a straight punch at Hei Jinbao's temple with all his might.

The fist slammed into Hei Jinbao's temple without hesitation, the violent force instantly twisting Hei Jinbao's neck into an exaggerated arc.

Before the shockwave had subsided, Hei Jinbao spun horizontally through the air for dozens of meters before crashing heavily into the glass window of a Clothing Store.

However, it must be said that the vitality of Grandmaster martial artist who has tempered his entire body with Internal Energy is indeed formidable.

Even though he was caught off guard by the attack, Hei Jinbao didn't die completely, but his face was covered in blood and his head was throbbing with pain, clearly indicating that he was seriously injured.

He had just struggled to his feet when he stumbled and could barely stand.

Hei Jinbao pressed his hand to the side where he had been hit. Knowing something was wrong, he endured the headache and shouted, "Thirteen Yao! Noah Zorro! Crow Commander! Please come quickly to help! The Jin Family Gang will reward you handsomely!"

They shouted loudly, but unfortunately, none of the three leaders of the major powers moved an inch.

Not to mention that in this complete darkness, it's impossible to see anything clearly.

Even if we take a step back and consider Hei Jinbao's usual behavior, the other Grandmaster martial artists are unlikely to be willing to lend him a hand.

Seeing this, Lu Bai immediately walked towards Hei Jinbao.

He chuckled and said, "Everyone's having a party, guess who wasn't invited?"

Being in such pitch-black surroundings, and hearing Lu Bai's undisguised noise, Hei Jinbao immediately sobered up.

He quickly shouted, "Brother Lu Bai, I agree too! I agree to you becoming the Spokesperson Chikan Bay!"

Lu Bai did not give an immediate reply. Instead, he activated [Flash Time], instantly bridging the distance between them, and punched Hei Jinbao in the head.

Boom!

Click~

Amidst the dull, deafening roar, there was also a faint, cracking sound of skulls shattering.

Hei Jinbao's body suddenly leaned back and crashed to the ground, creating a spiderweb-like pattern of cracks.

Grandmaster martial artist's head is literally an iron head.

Even with two consecutive all-out attacks from Lu Bai, his head was not smashed open like a watermelon.

But if the goal is simply to kill it, then that's barely enough.

Looking at the now silent Hei Jinbao before him, Lu Bai quietly finished his reply.

"Too late."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Bai adjusted his breathing slightly and then dispelled the surrounding darkness.

The sudden light entered their pupils, and they could see again, causing many people around to instinctively close their eyes and cry out.

The commotion didn't last long, as more and more people noticed the familiar corpse at Lu Bai's feet.

Hei Jinbao is the head of the Jin Family Gang, one of the five major forces in Chikan Bay, and a powerful Grandmaster martial artist.

He was not exactly unruly and lawless in his daily life, and his status in the underworld was second only to that of the Dao Master.

Yet, this very being was beaten to death in a short period of time.

The person who did this was a young man who looked like a high school student.

His handsome face, always adorned with a smile, even revealed a hint of youthfulness, making it truly difficult to associate Lu Bai with the image of a powerful figure.

The battle came to an end as darkness faded, leaving those who witnessed it deeply shaken.

"Hurry up and leave, this place is no place to stay."

"It seems like things are about to change in Chikan Bay; in the end, a newcomer has risen to power."

"Shh~ Keep your voice down, or you'll be in big trouble."

"Brother Bai is awesome! All Villains are awesome!!!"

Those petty All Villains who hadn't yet managed to escape were overjoyed at the sight and couldn't help but raise their arms and shout.

Aside from the All Villains, many members of other major factions were terrified and fled the scene. Those who remained nearby whispered among themselves, etching Lu Bai's image into their memories, fearing they might inadvertently offend such a ruthless person.

But compared to these low-level thugs, the ones who truly understood what this meant were the big shots of Chikan Bay, like Thirteen Yao.

"Boss Lu Bai, the Arid Tiger Hall is willing to serve you faithfully!"

Since he was already kneeling, Lou Yunyi decided to slide down to his knees even more thoroughly.

He went directly to Lu Bai's side and knelt on one knee. "Please allow me to deal with these stubborn elements for you."

Upon hearing this, Noah Zorro's face turned green.

Now that things have come to this, he doesn't mind acknowledging Lu Bai as the Spokesperson, but he can't find a way to back down for the time being.

"Huang Hu Lou, your joke isn't funny at all."

Finally, it was Thirteen Yao Orphans, who knew Lu Bai before, who stepped forward and said, "Isn't Hei Jinbao the only stubborn one? I've had my eye on Brother Lü for a long time."

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased a little, Crow Commander cleared his throat.

"Cough, yeah, it's mainly Hei Jinbao who instigated us to take action. We Crows came to Zhonglouba only to deal with the Jin Family Gang..."
