Since the vice-leader, Bai Chongyi had surrendered, the Meng Army laid down their guns one after another. They didn't have the slightest intention of resisting when facing such a powerful Demigod.
Buzhi Ming of Heaven's Gate had a grand reputation and well known in many regions of Europe. He was an international shark, someone who could shake the entire world.
The reason Heaven's Gate wished to absorb the Meng Army was to exploit the resources in the desert land of the Western Regions.
"Long live Mr. Buzhi!"
"Long live Heaven's Gate!"
The soldiers who had surrendered all shouted while raising their guns to express their wholehearted support for Buzhi Ming. The scene of several thousand men yelling at the same time, resulting in the waves reaching the skies, was a sight to behold.
Buzhi Ming was used to these kinds of scenes long ago, so he didn't show any changes in his expression.
"I never expected Heaven's Gate would send Buzhi Ming!"
Wu Guiyong's facial expression turned grim. The man had subdued the Meng Army with a single move.
"Sir, is this Buzhi Ming that amazing?"
Everyone saw his strength yet they were unfamiliar with this man's history. However, there was no doubt he was someone extraordinary.
"This man had become famous 40 years ago. I was quite young back then. He had always operated in Europe, but he once made a trip to China and defeated the 13 experts one after another, making all the martial artists in China lower their heads in shame."
"That's really something. What happened after that?"
Wu Guiyong continued speaking, "Afterwards, rumors spread that he lost to Mr. Fei Qing and promised he wouldn't enter China after that. I didn't expect he would make an exception today and come down here to take control of this group."
"Mr. Fei Qing?"
Compared to Buzhi Ming, Fei Qing's reputation was rather well known. That person was like an epic legend within the army. Even the 10 Grand Marshals are respectful when mentioning that name nowadays.
Fei Qing had resisted Heaven's Gate back in the days and thus became famous across the four seas.
"The Meng Army was already a headache, but now that Heaven's Gate has taken control of it, we can't say what will happen to the Western Region's frontier."
Buzhi Ming's gaze swept across the captive soldiers. He was stunned to see Wu Guiyong among them. It wasn't because he knew him but rather that Wu Guiyong was only a novice recruit when Buzhi Ming had oppressed China back in those days, and now, he had reached such a rank.
Zhou Hao smiled beside him, "Mr. Buzhi, Meng Du grabbed the commander of the Western Region's garrison to make an example out of him to intimidate you. It's a pity he didn't know how ruthless you are."
"This subordinate is also very shocked that Mr. Buzhi has arrived this time."
Buzhi Ming's face was the same as before, indifferent to everything, "I have made this trip for two things. First, to absorb the Meng Army and second, to kill a person."
Since this person was able to make Buzhi Ming act, there was no doubt he was someone incredible.
Zhou Hao, as well as the captive troops, were stunned, "Who?"
An ominous glint flashed through Buzhi Ming's eyes, "JIANG LUOXIA!"
"Hmm?"
Chen Dewen and the others couldn't help but look towards Jiang Xiu. He knew Jiang Xiu had another name, Jiang Luoxia. Excitement filled his eyes.
Chen Dewen believed that a powerful man like Jiang Xiu would never have bad luck and only have good luck so he would have to endure for his entire life, but he had never expected that Jiang Xiu would provoke such a fierce enemy.
Only, he was puzzled why Buzhi Ming didn't know how Jiang Luoxia looked since he planned to kill Jiang Xiu.
This was indeed worrisome.
Should I tell him?
Bai Chongyi couldn't help but ask, "Who is this Jiang Luoxia? To think he can make Mr. Buzhi act. Shouldn't it be fine if we send our assassins to assassinate him?"
Buzhi Ming's gaze fell on Bao Chongyi's face as he sneered at him, "This man killed an old friend of mine, Wang family's Wang Jianzhi. Do you think rats like you will be able to do anything to a man who can kill a Demigod?"
Bai Chongyi's eyes grew wide in shock. He felt embarrassed.
Since he was able to become the vice-leader of the Meng Army, he naturally wasn't a stupid person. He knew that the enemy wouldn't be ordinary since Buzhi Ming had personally appeared but if he didn't act silly, how else would it emphasize Mr. Buzhi's intelligence?
Someone in the captive troops discussed, "Is it that Mr. Jiang who has recently soared up in Jiangnan?"
"They say Mr. Jiang had defeated the Wang family's Demigod then subdued the Wang family."
"Isn't that just a rumor to spread the hype? Wang family's Demigod died 60 years ago."
Buzhi Ming smiled coldly.
A clear voice came through at this moment, "You want to kill me?"
Everyone looked towards the source of the voice. It was the young man who had defeated Meng Du's subordinate just before. He crouched beside Meng Du's body then took the Longevity Stone from him.
Buzhi Ming sized up Jiang Xiu up and down. He was a youth who seemed around 20 years old. Where did this impudent brat come from? "You."
"Who are you?"
Jiang Xiu fiddled with Meng Du's Longevity Stone. Its dimensions were the same as the one which he had but the writing on it was different, and its color was blue instead of red. The form of the script was different as well. It looked like it consisted of two letters.
The one he had felt hot while the blue one felt cold, even a bit icy. The energy within his body became orderly and milder. If the stones were held for a long duration of time, it could heal all defects in a human.
He concluded that the red one indicated warm blood while the blue one indicated cold blood.
Both of them went through two different routes. The extraordinary humans might have warm blood while the ordinary humans approached the cold blood category. In fact, the temperature of blood from an average human wasn't that high.
"Didn't you want to take revenge?"
The captive troops all looked at him. The leader who had questioned Jiang Xiu before cried out, "Has that kid gone mad?"
Aren't you just courting death by standing out against Buzhi Ming? Can't you see what kind of existence he is?
The captive troops looked at him as if he were an idiot.
Many of their faces went pale.
They were hoping that Buzhi Ming would let them go since he was in a good mood after taking over the Meng Army, but since this brat had created trouble now, they believed they might die soon.
The members of the Meng Army pointed their guns at Jiang Xiu when they saw him walk over towards Buzhi Ming. Their intent was clear. If he took another step, they would fire at him.
These men were very devoted. They were making an all-out effort just after changing masters.
In fact, these were instincts trained by Meng Du. If anyone threatened their boss, they had to act without any instructions.
This was the most significant difference between ordinary bandits and bandits trained like soldiers.
Bang!
Someone shot at him. They planned to show off in front of their new master.
Followed by a flash, the bullet flew towards Jiang Xiu's head at an astonishing speed.
The bullet almost neared him when an energy ripple undulated in the space before him, causing the bullet to lose power then drop down to the ground.
Jiang Xiu remained indifferent to this. He didn't move an inch and acted as if no one had shot at him.
The people on the side were stunned.
What the…
The bullet stopped mid-air?
If Xie Ting and Qiu Yinru were here, they would say this - Swindler. Didn't you say you were afraid of guns? Is this what you meant?
The bullets can't even reach you!
Zhou Hao was surprised as well. Jiang Xiu had already left a profound impression on him after the two duels which happened just before and already raised his evaluation of him, but he wasn't expecting that he had still underestimated him. He questioned himself. He could use his superhuman reactions to judge the trajectory of the bullet, but he couldn't stop a bullet like how Jiang Xiu had done.
Only those legendary Demigods could achieve something like this.
Is this youth a Demigod?
What's with this day? Demigods keep popping up. None had come out in the past few decades, but three of them had appeared today.
Buzhi Ming was also quite shocked. He could directly observe as well as sense Jiang Xiu's power and thus made a gloomy face, "You. Just who the hell are you?"
"I'm the person you're looking for…"
"JIANG LUOXIA!"
