Han Jiuxiao was completely stunned. What was going on? What was going on? Why did these nobles before him look even more like bandits than they did?
Are all the nobles of Da Qi so bad? They even carry knives when gambling?
If you were really that bad-tempered, you wouldn't be beaten up on the border for years, right?
If each of you were so full of martial virtue, our Mudao Mountain would have been razed to the ground long ago!
Some chaotic thoughts instantly appeared in Han Jiuxiao's mind, but he quickly suppressed them.
It was obvious that the nobles in front of them really dared to fight them to the death, unlike those local rich people who had been kidnapped by them in the past.
Moreover, he found out at a glance that these nobles were quite cunning. If he was distracted at this moment, he might be in trouble today.
The moral character of the nobles of Da Qi had little to do with him. Han Jiuxiao felt that he should take control of the situation first.
With a roar, Han Jiuxiao rushed forward with a long sword.
The reason why he could sit firmly on the top spot in Mudao Mountain was that he was extremely brave in battle and always rushed to the front line.
With a flying knife, he split the enemy in front of him into two halves, and blood splattered everywhere.
War is fought with momentum. Han Jiuxiao felt that this preemptive strike was enough to intimidate the enemy.
But what he didn't expect was that this knife not only did not scare the people on the opposite side, but instead aroused their bloodiness.
One of the big men roared and rushed towards Han Jiuxiao.
The opponent also used a knife, and he wielded the machete in his hand in a way that made it impossible for water to penetrate it.
Soon the two men collided with each other, and the weapons in their hands kept colliding with each other.
Every fight is fought with all-out effort, and every fight is extremely dangerous.
In just a few seconds, the weapons of both sides collided no less than twenty times. After the two separated, there were gaps on the weapons of both sides.
Han Jiuxiao panted and stared at the other party warily. After a moment, he shouted, "Who on earth are you, sir? Why do you know the Peng family's Five Tigers Gate-Breaking Knife?!"
The other party grinned and said, "Not bad, not bad. You are quite knowledgeable. You can actually recognize my swordsmanship. My name is Peng Kuiju. Before I was arrested, people in the martial arts world called me Juemen Dao!"
Upon hearing the words "Juemen Knife", Han Jiuxiao's expression changed drastically. "It's you! You are the seventh son of the Peng family, Peng Kuiju, who killed all seventeen members of the Peng family!"
"Hehehe, I never thought that even after being locked up for so many years, someone would still remember me. You're a good person. I'll make sure you die painlessly in a moment!"
Han Jiuxiao felt his scalp tingling at this moment. He looked at the people fighting around him, and suddenly a very scary idea came to his mind.
"Could it be that these so-called nobles present here are all the same vicious and evil people from the past?"
Peng Kuiju is the seventh child in the Peng family. It is said that his mother was a maid who was not presentable. Because of his mother's identity, he was often bullied at home since he was a child. His brothers in the family even treated him like a dog.
If nothing unexpected happens, a bastard like Peng Kuiju will be sent by the family to certain industries to help the family make money after he comes of age. He will never be able to come into contact with the core members of the family in this life, let alone learn the family's advanced martial arts.
However, Peng Kuiju can be said to be a gifted man. He was able to master the swordsmanship by simply stealing knowledge.
On the day when he achieved the swordsmanship, he immediately rushed back to the Peng family, and fought his way in and out of the entire Peng family seven times, killing seventeen masters of the Peng family in one breath, and then rushed out of the Peng family with his courage.
From that day on, the entire Peng family fell into ruin and has not recovered to this day.
Peng Kuiju also began to become famous in the martial arts world with his fierce swordsmanship. He was extremely ruthless and almost all the people who offended him were wiped out by him, which is why he got the title of "Juemen Knife".
"Two years ago, I heard you were captured by the Six Gates. I never thought you would defect to the imperial court and become its lackey. You're truly bringing shame to us Jianghu people!"
"Hahaha, there is no difference between the martial arts world and the imperial court in my eyes. Stop talking nonsense and lend me your head, so that I can live happily again!" Peng Kuiju roared, and the two sides fought again.
Soon the people of Mudao Mountain discovered that people like Peng Kuiju were not isolated cases, and those who fought against them were all extremely vicious criminals.
Compared with these people, these bandits from Mudao Mountain are simply good citizens!
At most, they would kidnap someone and send them back as long as the ransom was paid. Unlike these thugs, killing an entire family was standard practice.
For a moment, the entire casino was filled with shouts of killing. The bandits from Mudao Mountain were shocked to find that the gang of thugs in front of them were even more powerful than them, and they were ready to die.
Lu Chen stood outside the casino, rubbing Li Xiang's head with a smile and said, "I promised those death row prisoners inside that as long as they can survive, I will set them free and even give them high positions and generous salaries."
"Compared to the two, the bandits from Mudao Mountain are not that good. They came in with the intention of kidnapping, but never thought of fighting to the death. So once the two sides clashed, they were definitely timid."
"So the death row prisoner will definitely win in the end?" Li Xiang looked at Lu Chen with admiration. This strategy of driving the tiger to devour the wolf was really brilliant.
Lu Chen shook his head and said, "The ones who will survive in the end will definitely be the people from Mudao Mountain. I deliberately controlled the number of death row prisoners. Two fists can't beat four hands!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the casino door was pushed open from the inside. Han Jiuxiao, covered in blood, put a knife to someone's neck and yelled hysterically, "Don't come over here! I have a hostage. If you make any rash moves, I'll kill you!"
"Prepare a fast horse for me, give me another ten thousand taels of silver, and let me go!"
Looking at Han Jiuxiao who was still shouting, Lu Chen shook his head and said to Li Xiang beside him with regret: "I still overestimated these bandits. I thought they could survive two more. My preparations were wasted in vain."
"Master, what should we do next? He has a hostage!" Li Xiang looked nervous. He had always lived a life of luxury in the palace and had never seen such a scene before.
Lu Chen also scratched his head and said, "Indeed, it is quite troublesome for the bandits to have hostages."
As Lu Chen said this, he waved towards Zhang Laoba. Zhang Laoba nodded, picked up a wooden hammer, and smashed it hard on the bed crossbow in front of him!
With a buzzing sound, the crossbow arrow instantly pierced the hostage's body and nailed him to the door of the casino, leaving only Han Jiuxiao with a look of astonishment on his face.
Lu Chen turned to look at Li Xiang and said, "Look, there are no hostages now. The problem is solved!"
Li Xiang's face was filled with a look of shattered worldview. He muttered to himself, "I've figured it out! As long as we kill the hostages first, no criminals will be able to threaten us with them. What Master said makes so much sense!"
