The next day at noon, the group transformed back to their appearances from when they entered the city, preparing to rob the rich and help the poor.
Of course, the robbing was of the underground black market, and the helping was, of course, for themselves!
Xia Wuji led the group to the front of a gambling house.
Xuan Mingzi asked in confusion, "Brother Wuji, are your hands itching?"
Xia Wuji was taken aback and asked, "What makes you say that?"
"If your hands aren't itching, why did you bring us to a gambling house?" Xuan Mingzi pointed at the gambling house.
Xia Wuji, upon hearing this, couldn't help but roll his eyes at him, saying, "Brother Xuan Mingzi, you don't think the underground black market has a signboard that says 'Underground Black Market,' do you?"
"Uh…"
Xuan Mingzi didn't know whether to answer or not.
"Alright, you simpleton, where did your usual quick wit go?" Li Beifei smacked Xuan Mingzi's head. To be honest, he finally understood why his master liked to smack people's heads; it felt really good.
"Boss, isn't this the first time we're doing something like this? I'm not familiar with the business; you can't blame me!" Xuan Mingzi said aggrievedly.
"What do you mean 'business'? We're eliminating harm for the vast number of cultivators; this is upholding justice. Don't lower our standards," Li Beifei glared at Xuan Mingzi, why speak the truth?
Xuan Mingzi shrank his neck. At this moment, he missed his new junior sister immensely. When they first met, she called him 'Senior Brother' with every breath, it was so sweet it almost melted his heart.
"Brother Li, what plan have you prepared?"
At this moment, Li Ruoyu opened his mouth to ask, inquiring about Li Beifei's plan.
"Plan? With my senior sister here, do we even need a plan?" Li Beifei stared wide-eyed at Li Ruoyu, as if saying, 'Are you looking down on my senior sister?'
Li Ruoyu's expression changed slightly, and he quickly explained to Hong Hong, "Miss Hong Hong, I didn't mean to look down on you. I was just simply asking Brother Li what plan he had. Please don't overthink it."
Xia Wuji and the others looked at Li Ruoyu in surprise, as if they didn't recognize him. The usually calm Li Ruoyu would never be so flustered!
There's something going on!
The group exchanged glances, all revealing meaningful smiles. It seemed their older Daozi had reached the age of blooming.
"Pfft!" Hong Hong couldn't help but giggle. She shook her head and said, "Don't listen to my junior brother's nonsense."
The group didn't really have any plan. They walked into the gambling house named Hong An in a grand and upright manner.
Hong An Gambling House, on the surface, was the largest gambling house in Qianqi City, but in reality, it was just a disguise used by the underground black market.
However, even as a disguise, it was filled with people. They were all cultivators with relatively weak cultivations, all dreaming of getting rich overnight through gambling. They would come to the gambling house as long as they had source crystals. Once they ran out of source crystals, they would naturally leave and then try to find ways to obtain more source crystals.
The simplest method was to kill and set fires!
So, the moment they entered the gambling house, everyone could feel a thick, concentrated baleful aura.
Baleful aura was different from murderous aura. Baleful aura was condensed on those who frequently slaughtered mortals. These baleful auras were marks made by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth on these people, to alert others.
It could be said that even the assassins of the Nine Nether Organization, which Gu Changsheng had previously annihilated, would feel disdain towards these people. Even though they were notorious, they had no precedent of attacking mortals, which was why they had been able to exist for so long.
Unfortunately, they had offended someone they shouldn't have!
"These people, every single one of them, has condensed a thick baleful aura. How many mortals have they killed?"
Li Ruoyu's eyes instantly became extremely gloomy. As the Daozi of the Dao Saint Sect, he was initially unwilling to come here with Li Beifei and the others to do this "rob the rich and help the poor" thing. The reason he came was because Li Beifei and the others told him that the people of the underground black market were stained with the blood of innocent people. He was the only one among them who was thinking of eliminating harm for the people.
Now, feeling this extremely dense baleful aura, he almost couldn't help but reduce these people to ashes.
Li Beifei patted him on the shoulder and said, "I've already had Brother Bai set up a formation outside. None of these people will be able to escape."
Li Ruoyu nodded.
"Then… let's begin!"
As soon as Li Beifei finished speaking, he directly summoned the Tian Shu Sword. Without any warning or hesitation, Li Beifei swung a sword aura at the people in front of him.
"Boom!"
The powerful sword aura instantly killed more than a dozen gambling cultivator who were having too much fun. Blood splattered, immediately shocking everyone.
"What happened?"
"Courting death! These people actually dare to commit violence in Hong An Gambling House. Do they think their lives are too long?"
The people next to them saw that more than a dozen people had been killed, and only showed a slight shock, then commented on Li Beifei and the others, as if Li Beifei's behavior was not enough to scare them.
Or rather, these people had killed too many people. As long as their lives were not threatened, they were no longer surprised by the deaths of others.
"Who dares to kill people in my Hong An Gambling House?"
At this time, an old man walked out with a group of black-clothed guards. The old man exuded a powerful aura, and was actually a powerhouse at the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm.
He first glanced at the dozen or so people who had been killed. The blood had already soaked the ground, like a small stream. He turned to look at Li Beifei and the others, but what greeted him was a powerful sword aura.
"Presumptuous!"
The old man shouted angrily, and stretched out his big hand to try to shatter Li Beifei's sword aura, but with a "bang", his entire body was split in half by the sword aura, and the guards behind him also died under this sword aura. The old man's eyes showed a look of horror before he died. He couldn't understand how a person who was only at the fourth level of the Life and Death Realm could have such a powerful strength.
"Too much nonsense!" Li Beifei sneered.
This scene made those gamblers shudder. They naturally knew the old man just now. He was the person in charge of Hong An Gambling House, a powerhouse at the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm, who was usually high above. He didn't expect to be killed by a sword.
"Run!"
Someone shouted, and hundreds of gamblers began to rush out, but Li Beifei and the others were at the door, so they naturally didn't dare to run to the door, but ran to the window, wanting to jump out of the window and leave.
But when they came to the window and wanted to jump out of the window, they found an invisible wall blocking them. No matter how they attacked, they couldn't break this invisible barrier.
"It's a formation. Someone has set up a formation!"
"Who are you? We have no grievances with you, why do you want to trap us?"
"Yes, whether you want to seek revenge on Hong An Gambling House or cause trouble, it has nothing to do with us. Let us out!"
These people were not fools. They quickly understood that Li Beifei and the others were not here to cause trouble for them specifically, but to cause trouble for Hong An Gambling House. In that case, they naturally wanted to clear their relationship with Hong An Gambling House and let Li Beifei and the others let them go.
"Those innocent mortals have no grievances with you either, why do you want to kill them!"
Li Ruoyu walked out with a gloomy face. He even removed his disguise and revealed his original appearance. He was angry. For so many years, this was the first time he had felt angry!
When Li Beifei and the others saw this, they also removed their disguises. Since it was a good thing to eliminate harm for the people, there was no need to hide it!
