The situation left the surrounding Officers stunned.
The people around them were all wearing various kinds of clothes.
And the killing intent in their eyes and the smell of blood emanating from them lingered.
Chen Guan immediately recognized these people as the real bandits.
And the most famous in this area was White Tiger Mountain.
"Bandits from White Tiger Mountain?"
Chen Guan's words fell into the ears of the other party.
The leader immediately laughed, "That's right, your grandpa here is the leader of White Tiger Stockade, Zhang Hai! Today, you dare to trespass on my White Tiger Mountain, and it's your death day!"
These words caused the surrounding Officers to panic.
They never expected that the bandits nowadays were so arrogant that they dared to attack Officers directly.
"Listen up, you scoundrels from White Tiger Stockade, we are Officers from Qingshi County. If you kill us, not a single one of you bandits from White Tiger Mountain will escape! Think carefully!"
One of the Officers bravely threatened them.
However, his words made Chen Guan scoff.
If these bandits were afraid of the soldiers, why would they be here now?
Qingshi County was already struggling to deal with the threat of Tushan Demons and couldn't spare any attention.
How could they manage these scoundrels from White Tiger Mountain?
"Hahaha, what is there to fear from the Qingshi County soldiers! We, White Tiger Stockade, are not afraid. Kill them!"
Zhang Hai shook his head and gave the order.
The surrounding bandits swarmed forward, surrounded the Officers, and began a brutal slaughter.
Chen Guan stood in place without moving, watching the situation coldly.
The bandits from White Tiger Stockade did not attack him, but instead pursued and killed the Officers.
This made him very confused.
The number of Officers was vastly outnumbered by these bandits.
In just one hour, all the bandits were completely dealt with.
"What? Aren't you going to make a move?"
Seeing them stop, Chen Guan asked curiously.
Zhang Hai came before him and cupped his fists, saying, "I saw what happened earlier. These Officers were attacking you, young master, and you faced so many of them without changing your expression. I am truly impressed!"
These words made Chen Guan frown.
He didn't have a good impression of these bandits.
They looted villages and killed people mercilessly.
If it weren't for the rampant demons nowadays, he wouldn't have let these bandits go.
And from Zhang Hai's respectful words, he could tell.
White Tiger Stockade had something to ask of him.
"Just say what you want!"
Chen Guan's words made Zhang Hai scratch his head sheepishly, "Young master, our chieftain saw that your strength is extraordinary, so we have a request. We ask that you come up the mountain!"
Actually, Chen Guan could have ignored them and used Exquisite Leg to leave this place right now!
But the bandits' words made him curious.
"Then I'll go up the mountain with you!"
After his words fell, he followed Zhang Hai and the others directly up White Tiger Mountain.
White Tiger Stockade had been operating on White Tiger Mountain for many years.
The number of bandits had already exceeded three thousand, making them a very powerful force in the area.
And they were already able to threaten the surrounding cities.
The stockade was also very well-built, and there was no shortage of food here.
"Please follow me, young master. The village chief has been waiting for a long time!"
Zhang Hai respectfully led him into the stockade.
The bandits drinking and eating meat around saw a new face enter.
They all gave him unfriendly glances.
But Chen Guan entered the hall neither servile nor overbearing, and was met by a burly man with a thick beard.
"Chieftain, your subordinate has brought the young master back!"
Zhang Hai cupped his fists and then turned to leave.
The White Tiger Stockade leader rose and walked over to him, a cold sneer on his face as he looked at Chen Guan's attire.
"Someone from the Demon Suppressing Division? To be ambushed by Qingshi County officers, I never saw that coming!"
The stockade leader spoke coldly, his tone extremely unfriendly.
However, Chen Guan was unfazed. "There are many things you haven't seen! Speak, why did you summon me here?"
"You're quite arrogant. Don't think your status in the Demon Suppressing Division will make me yield obediently!"
With that, the stockade leader threw a punch.
The moment he moved, Chen Guan saw that his realm was the sixth layer of the Blood Forging Realm.
Although it was one layer higher than his own, Chen Guan wasn't afraid of a real fight.
He stomped his feet, using the Exquisite Leg to dodge the punch.
His body suddenly appeared behind the stockade leader.
"Wild Goose Fist!"
His fist, enveloped in the inner force of the air, struck towards the stockade leader's back.
The stockade leader's pupils dilated.
Chen Guan's speed exceeded his imagination.
With no other choice, he could only bend over and roll away to dodge the attack.
But this left his clothes covered in dust, making him look disheveled.
"You're only at the fifth layer of the Blood Forging Realm, why is your speed so incredible!"
The stockade leader could hardly believe his eyes as he looked at Chen Guan.
Chen Guan, however, shook his head. "Let's continue!"
After these words were spoken.
The bandits of the White Tiger Stockade rushed in like a swarm.
They surrounded him, each wielding various weapons.
But Chen Guan was not afraid at all.
If the White Tiger Stockade had intended to kill him, they would have done so at the foot of the mountain.
Why wait until now?
Therefore, he knew that the stockade leader merely wanted to test his strength!
"All of you, stand down! This matter has nothing to do with you!"
As expected, a red light flashed across the stockade leader's face, and he waved his hand excitedly.
The surrounding bandits were confused but could only retreat.
"Brother, I am the leader of this White Tiger Stockade, Liu Tai. May I know your honorable name? I was merely testing your strength just now, please don't take it to heart!"
The stockade leader quickly stepped forward, looking at him with a fawning expression.
Chen Guan frowned and shook his head. "I am Chen Guan. May I ask if you have any important matters for summoning me, Stockade Leader?"
His words made Liu Tai sigh deeply!
"Stockade Leader, it's not good! Demons are attacking! Our men have suffered heavy losses!"
Just as Liu Tai was about to explain, a bandit's report came from outside, making Liu Tai agitated as he rushed out.
Chen Guan watched his retreating back, quite curious, and followed.
He saw that the bandits of the White Tiger Stockade were now armed and ready, standing in formation.
Outside, roars could be heard, making one's scalp tingle.
Chen Guan, who had fought with Tushan demons before, could recognize them.
These were the cries of demons.
"Damn it, they're here so fast! Brothers, listen up! Today, even if we have to fight to the last man, we must defend the stockade!"
Liu Tai shouted loudly, holding a battle-axe.
The bandits behind him raised their arms in response.
Chen Guan stood behind them, watching the scene, and couldn't help but nod.
Setting aside Liu Tai's character for a moment.
His ability to rally people was indeed much stronger than that of ordinary men.
