Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 1753: Chapter 1787: The South Heavenly Gate Has Been Upgraded (Ten Explosive Updates)

The fire was like several red dragons, instantly surrounding the entire inn. It didn’t take long before heart-wrenching screams echoed from within the inn.

And the culprit just stood quietly not far from the inn with hands behind his back, eyes showing a trace of excitement as he watched everything unfold...

”Buzz... buzz... buzz...” The fire spread rapidly, enclosing the entire inn within.

”Ah!!!”

”Help!”

”Help!”

On the rooftop of the inn, countless beauties who had come here to make a fortune were burnt to the point where not even a strand of hair was left. Some even roared under the burning flames!

Those elders had high cultivation, but unfortunately this time, Hai Zhilan was well prepared. The entire inn, spanning hundreds of meters, turned into a sea of fire, making it difficult even for experts to escape the danger zone in the first instance.

”Hai Zhilan! You thief! You set the fire that killed all the elders, do you have any conscience?”

”Hai Zhilan! You beast! Beast. You set the fire to burn us, you won’t die a good death...”

”...” Under the ruthless devouring of the fire, countless people on top of the inn let out painful roars, occasionally a few elders with high cultivation managed to escape the sea of fire, but still perished under Hai Zhilan’s heartless sword!

”Hai Zhilan! You beast! Are you even human?”

An elder stormed out of the sea of fire, his whole body charred, every hair on his head burnt off by the flames. Even his scalp and face were burned to pulp, making it impossible to recognize which elder he was!

Though he rushed out of the sea of fire, his body was severely burned. His entire clothing and flesh had fused together, with only half a life left.

”Oh? Are you cursing me?” Hai Zhilan pulled on his trouser leg, walked up and squatted down. He waved his hand, and someone delivered a cigar. Under the hateful gaze of the elder, Hai Zhilan smoked with enjoyment.

”Beast! You beast!” The elder, using his last breath, tried to stand up and grab Hai Zhilan.

”Hehe. I don’t even recognize who the hell you are now. Why are you cursing me?” Hai Zhilan continued to laugh. Then he harshly stubbed the cigar he had taken two puffs from onto the elder’s forehead. Instantly, the elder let out a blood-curdling scream, which made Hai Zhilan feel even more delighted, laughing until tears almost came out.

”Does it hurt? Does it hurt a lot? Back when I was in the family, didn’t you burn my forehead with a cigar too? Have you forgotten?”

”Ah!!! Hai Zhilan! You beast worse than a brute! The way you treat me today, you’ll be retributed one day!”

”Slap!”

Hai Zhilan raised his hand and slapped the elder, knocking him over.

He viciously stomped on the elder’s head with his foot, looking down and saying hatefully, ”Isn’t this exactly what I said to you back then?”

”You will face retribution! Even though you have burned all of us elders to death, you won’t stay long in the position of Family Head. Don’t think that just because the South Heavenly Gate supports you now, one day your value will diminish, and by then, they will still kick you out like a dog!”

Though his whole body was in pain, the elder still looked at him with a look of pity and sympathy. ”Haha, a dog is just a dog. In the eyes of the master, once your value is gone, they will kick you away just the same. Wait and see, today’s fate of ours will soon be the same as yours!”

”I see you are seeking death!”

These words made Hai Zhilan particularly annoyed. He quickly plunged two fingers into the elder’s eyes, digging forcefully at his eyeballs and gritting his teeth, he said maliciously, ”I tell you! What Hai Zhilan wants, no one can stop. Right now, I am still weak, but don’t forget, when a person truly wants to do something, even God will pave the way and help him! And I, Hai Zhilan, am that person!”

”Ah!!! Hai Zhilan, you will definitely face retribution! You will definitely face retribution!”

The elder finally couldn’t endure such torment and bit his tongue to commit suicide. After collapsing to the ground, his whole body convulsed. This scene made those behind Hai Zhilan all feel a chill in their hearts. To follow such a vicious, ruthless Family Head filled them with an uneasy impulse.

Soon, the ruthless fire consumed the entire inn, burning everyone to ashes!

In the middle of the night, Hai Zhilan also arranged for assassins to kill those elders who were not present. This time, his goal was to kill all the elders of the Hai Family without leaving a single one! Only then could he securely hold onto his current position as Family Head.

But over the next few days, Hai Zhilan became even more frenzied.

Spending lavishly to hire killers, openly recruiting soldiers at the Hai Family, consuming almost all of the Family’s assets, all in the hope of strengthening the Hai Family to the point of being powerful and well-armed...

Overnight, news that dozens of high-level elders of the Hai Family were burned to death by a fire at an inn spread almost instantly throughout Yanjing!

Even Zhonghai’s Zhang Mengjie was shocked by this incident.

She sent a message to Lin Zifeng overnight, stating that this person was too ruthless and was abusing the banner of the South Heavenly Gate, but after receiving the message, Lin Zifeng was not in Yanjing but had gone to Dark Prison...

That night, Black Hawk gathered everyone together to discuss the matter.

But throughout the entire night’s meeting, everyone was at a loss.

”Is there nothing that can stop this guy’s brutality? If he continues to develop unchecked, sooner or later he will ruin the reputation of our South Heavenly Gate.”

Black Hawk slammed the table, holding back a breath of frustration, but unable to explode, feeling truly uncomfortable.

”Hei Zi, shouting won’t help. That kid is someone Brother Lin has his eyes on. At this point, if you go and mess with that kid, we might end up ruining Brother Lin’s big plans. It’s better to turn a blind eye for now and discuss it when Brother Lin gets back.” Bu Chen scratched his head and sighed heavily, also feeling very helpless.

However, Lin Zifeng expended a lot of effort to protect that Hai Zhilan, even wiping out the Hai Family to help this kid rise to power. Of course, this kid was also a flatterer.

He made everyone in the South Heavenly Gate happy and also offered forty percent of the Family’s assets to South Heavenly Gate unconditionally.

This allowed the overall strength of everyone in South Heavenly Gate to increase several folds, and the members of Hidden Kill and Ming Zhan halls have now reached the Qi Dao Realm, with most members of Hidden Kill even reaching the King Realm.
