584: Chapter 580: Battle in the Valley 584: Chapter 580: Battle in the Valley “Falling apart?

Hmph, once they taste the sweetness, they’ll be begging to lick the crumbs!”

Lv Xin sneered coldly, “What you should be concerned about now is not other gangs, but how to ransom your people back.”

Hearing this, Yang Ye and He Yufei exchanged glances.

“Our greatest concession is that our Azure Dragon Branch will cede half of Liiu Yuan City’s territory!”

He Yufei then raised his head to speak, his face gloomy and teeth clenched, “And the Yanghe Association will do the same, ceding half of the territory to Liiu Rong Hall!”

“Are you joking with me?”

Gu Hongfeng, the vice leader of Hengling Gang, who had been silent until now, sneered and raised his eyebrows at He Yufei.

Rebuked on the spot, He Yufei’s face showed a trace of anger.

But the situation was now stronger than others, and although rage surged in He Yufei’s heart, he could only forcefully suppress it.

It was clear, however, that he was on the verge of exploding.

This was already the biggest concession they could make.

“Vice Leader Gu, we have come with sincerity, hoping to sit down and talk things over peacefully!”

Yang Ye gestured towards He Yufei to shake his head, then took a deep breath and said gravely, “The concession of territory from both our sides is already significant.

Not to mention with the inclusion of our Yanghe Association, the interests from the Azure Dragon Branch’s territory in Liiu Yuan City alone are enough to drive many people mad!”

“Hmph, that is short-sightedness of others, what use is mere half of the territory?”

Liiu Rong Hall Master Lv Xin said with disdain.

“Gentlemen, please calm down!

Let me say a word!”

Seeing that both sides were a bit heated, Zheng Han sighed, stepped between them with a bitter smile, and then looked at Gu Hongfeng, “Elder Gu, Da Ming and I are here to attempt mediation, hoping everyone can sit down and talk peacefully.

Many business magnates of Liiu Yuan City do not wish to see another conflict arise.

The losses caused by your disputes have been significant for all of us.

Perhaps Elder Gu, you could suggest your conditions?”

Zheng Han stepped in, and Yang Ye and He Yufei didn’t speak further.

They also hoped that Zheng Han could mediate and that a peaceful resolution could be reached.

No one wanted a conflict, as it would be tough on everyone.

On the other side, Gu Hongfeng and Lv Xin, only then, noticed Zheng Han and Da Ming had come.

“Did not expect Elder Zheng to come mediating!”

Gu Hongfeng nodded politely to Zheng Han and then said, “Since Elder Zheng has spoken, I’ll give you another choice.

This is what we’ve discussed – both the Yanghe Association and the Azure Dragon Branch will join our Hengling Gang!

In that case, your previous territories will remain as they were, unchanged!”

These words made Yang Ye, He Yufei, and the others’ expressions change drastically.

Zheng Han also looked displeased and shook his head at Gu Hongfeng, “Elder Gu, this is going a bit too far.

The saying goes, ‘People’s greed can swallow an elephant,’ I’m afraid you’ll choke and kill yourselves in the end.

Many of these grey-area benefits you control are closely related to us, and I certainly do not wish to be forced to get involved!”

“Is Elder Zheng threatening us?”

Gu Hongfeng grinned and said coldly, “The final terms have been given to you, now you have two minutes to consider!”

Hearing this, Zheng Han shook his head slightly, then stepped back.

Observing the situation, it seemed Hengling Gang was determined to swallow the Azure Dragon branches and the Yanghe Association at Nine-Headed Mountain.

“Vice Leader Gu, then there’s nothing left to discuss!”

Finally, Yang Ye shook his head and replied coldly.

Have them join Hengling Gang?

It was a pipe dream!

They wouldn’t agree to cede all the territory in the first place, not to mention complying with the demand of joining Hengling Gang, and even if they did, their superiors would not consent.

Especially not terms like joining Hengling Gang.

At this point, Shen Ji, Yang Ye, and the others couldn’t help but look at Lin Tian, either to make a move and seize people now or to leave and think of another strategy.

But then, Gu Hongfeng suddenly sneered, “Since there’s nothing to talk about, then all of you must stay behind!”

Hearing this, Yang Ye, He Yufei, and the others’ expressions changed.

“Gu Hongfeng, are you going to detain all of our people?”

Shen Ji’s face was grim, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he swept the opposing side, “Don’t tell me it’s just the few of you!”

“What if I join as well?”

Suddenly, a hoarse voice came from up above the valley.

At this, Yang Ye and the others were startled and looked up.

The faces of Gu Hongfeng and the others opposite lit up with joy.

Everyone looked up to see an old man in a Tang suit coming down from a mountain ridge by the valley, his thousand-layer soles making no sound as he moved.

The old man appeared aged, with a face full of sagging wrinkles, and his back was slightly hunched.

His cloudy eyes emanated a deep, twilight aura.

As he appeared, Yang Ye and the others already had an expression of deep solemnity on their faces.

“It’s Quaan Zhiguo from the Hengling Gang, the Martial Arts Grandmaster!”

He Yufei inhaled sharply and spoke gravely, “This man is said to be at the peak of Martial Arts Grandmasters, with astonishing strength.

He’s one of the older generation of Grandmasters.

We didn’t believe the rumors that he had joined the Hengling Gang, but it turns out they were true!”

“This is trouble!”

Yang Ye sighed helplessly before finally addressing Lin Tian, “Master Lin, Quaan Zhiguo is an established Martial Arts Grandmaster, with profound cultivation.

I suppose only the legendary war god of our Huaxia, Jun Wuyi, could defeat him.

Other Grandmasters might at most put up a fight.

Do you think you can handle it?”

“A mere Martial Arts Grandmaster, with the flick of my finger, I can turn him into ashes!”

Lin Tian spoke calmly, with a casualness that made it seem as if he was discussing something trivial.

Uh…

Yang Ye and He Yufei were stunned.

A Martial Arts Grandmaster, turned to ashes with a flick of a finger?

Wasn’t that a bit too arrogant?

They exchanged glances, unsure of how to respond.

But although Lin Tian’s words were spoken lightly, they fell clearly into the ears of Quaan Zhiguo.

Martial Arts Grandmasters can injure from afar and have exceedingly sharp hearing.

“Young man, that’s quite the bold statement!

It’s been many years since anyone has dared to speak to me like that!”

Quaan Zhiguo’s voice was old and hoarse, his murky eyes flashing with a sharp light as he coldly stared at Lin Tian.

“Elder Quaan!”

Gu Hongfeng and the others quickly bowed respectfully as the old man approached.

“Boastful?

No, what Mr.

Lin said is the truth!”

As Quaan Zhiguo finished speaking, another figure dashed out and arrived at the valley in an instant.

After respectfully bowing to Lin Tian and looking toward Quaan Zhiguo, he said, “Forget Mr.

Lin, with a flick of my finger, I can turn you into ashes!”

Lin Tian glanced at the new arrival with a calm smile on his face.

He recognized the person, it was Yu Jinhe.

But Yu Jinhe’s appearance made Zheng Han, Yang Ye, and the others freeze in surprise.

They had not seen the sudden arrival before, but they did notice his courteous gesture toward Lin Tian.

Who was this man?

They were all puzzled.

“Hehe, who are you?

I can’t gauge the depth of your ability, but even if you’re a Grandmaster, I’ve never been afraid!” Quaan Zhiguo was also momentarily startled, but he quickly sneered, “What’s more, what means do you have to turn me to ashes in an instant?”

“Very well, you will soon find out!”

Yu Jinhe swept him with a cold gaze and then looked back at Lin Tian respectfully, “Mr.

Lin, why don’t you leave this to me?

I’ll rescue them right away!”

“Leave it all to you?”

Lin Tian raised an eyebrow and said with a smirk, “Then go ahead and take action yourself.

If you need my help later, I can only intervene once you’ve been beaten half to death!”

Yu Jinhe was momentarily bewildered, not catching the implied meaning in Lin Tian’s words.

But having agreed to it, he did not dare to back out on the spot and bowed seriously before then stepping towards Quaan Zhiguo.

Quaan Zhiguo couldn’t sense the true level of Yu Jinhe’s cultivation and seeing his approach, he unleashed his inner strength.

“Seize those people!”

As Quaan Zhiguo made his move, Gu Hongfeng gestured to the remaining people and charged out first.

“Elder Zheng, Mr.

Da, be careful!”

Lee Cheng and Luo Dou, both Earth-level Peak Martial Artists, pulled Zheng Han and Da Ming behind them and were the first to surge forward.

Even before Yu Jinhe and Quaan Zhiguo made contact, the other Earth-level Martial Artists and Xuan-level Martial Artists were already entangled, with the sounds of Gang Qi buzzing and exploding, fists landing heavily on flesh, echoing throughout the valley.
