Chapter 73 The Bloodstained Return: The Black Stone Gang Will Not Let This Go.
Outside the Broken Stone Pass.
The sky was gradually darkening.
A mountain breeze blew in from the depths of the valley, carrying a cool sensation.
⸻
The Li family members are quickly cleaning up the battlefield.
⸻
No one was joking.
⸻
The blood on the ground was still wet.
Several corpses lay among the rubble.
There were members of the Black Stone Gang and members of the Li family.
⸻
Li Yuanshan squatted beside the corpse of a Li family guard, remaining silent for a long time.
⸻
The guard's surname was Zhou.
I used to frequently travel with caravans to transport goods.
He has a reserved personality and doesn't like to talk.
Every time I see him, I greet him with a smile:
"Brother Shan".
⸻
But now.
The person is gone.
⸻
Li Yuanshan's throat tightened slightly.
He reached out and gently closed the other person's wide-open eyes.
⸻
My fingers are trembling.
⸻
This was the first time he had ever truly experienced something like this.
⸻
I used to live in Qingyun County.
Although I have seen dead people.
But back then...
I'm far away from him.
⸻
He mostly stood behind the scenes doing the accounting.
Inspecting the goods.
Discuss the price.
⸻
But today.
He witnessed a living person fall in front of him.
⸻
That feeling.
It felt like something was stuck in my chest.
I feel incredibly bored.
⸻
"Brother Shan".
A guard standing nearby spoke in a low voice.
⸻
"What should we do with the body?"
⸻
Li Yuanshan came to his senses.
⸻
He opened his mouth.
But I found my voice was a little hoarse.
⸻
"Take it back."
He said.
⸻
"Take them all back."
⸻
The guard nodded.
⸻
Li Yuanshan slowly stood up.
My knees feel a little weak.
⸻
He subconsciously looked in Li Xuan's direction.
⸻
Li Xuan was sitting next to a car.
Chen He was bandaging his wound.
⸻
The knife wound on his shoulder was very deep.
Blood had soaked through half of his robe.
⸻
Chen He frowned deeply.
⸻
"The wound needs to be treated as soon as possible."
He said in a low voice.
⸻
"Delaying it any longer may damage your meridians."
⸻
Li Xuan leaned against the wheel and closed his eyes slightly.
⸻
The spiritual energy consumption is too high.
My head still feels a little heavy.
⸻
You can hear Chen He's words.
He still opened his eyes.
⸻
"How much medicine is left in the car?"
⸻
Chen He was stunned for a moment.
⸻
"Don't worry about the medicine for now."
⸻
"I asked you how much you have left."
Li Xuan's voice was calm.
⸻
Chen He remained silent for two breaths.
Or, to answer:
⸻
"There are three portions of the healing powder left."
⸻
"There are five hemostatic pills left."
⸻
Li Xuan nodded.
⸻
"Give it to the seriously injured first."
⸻
"And you?"
Chen He frowned.
⸻
Li Xuan glanced down at his shoulder.
⸻
"He won't die."
⸻
Chen He's face turned even uglier.
⸻
"Those few moves you just made almost drained your spiritual energy."
⸻
"If we keep pushing ourselves, we might really be ruined."
⸻
Li Xuan remained silent.
⸻
He simply looked up and gazed into the distance.
⸻
Outside the Broken Stone Pass.
It was getting dark.
⸻
this kind of place.
We cannot stay here for long.
⸻
Although the Blackstone Gang has withdrawn.
But who knows if they'll ever come back?
⸻
and.
The team that approached earlier hasn't actually shown itself yet.
⸻
Thinking about this...
Li Xuan's gaze darkened slightly.
⸻
"Leave immediately."
He said.
⸻
"Let's go to Linhe Town first."
⸻
Chen He nodded.
⸻
he knows.
Li Xuan's judgment was correct.
⸻
The Li family is in this state now.
Then another wave of enemies appeared.
It's possible they won't be able to hold on.
⸻
soon.
The team resumed their journey.
⸻
Just this once.
Everyone's mood became much somber.
⸻
The wheels rolled over the mountain road.
It makes a low, deep sound.
⸻
No one spoke.
⸻
In the air.
All that's left is repression.
⸻
Li Yuanshan walked at the back of the group.
He kept looking back.
⸻
I always feel that...
Someone was watching him from the darkness.
⸻
This feeling sent a chill down his spine.
⸻
"Scared?"
A sound suddenly came from the side.
⸻
Li Yuanshan was taken aback.
Turn your head.
⸻
It's Chenhe.
⸻
His shoulders were also wrapped in cloth.
He didn't look well.
But he still has that carefree attitude.
⸻
Li Yuanshan smiled bitterly.
⸻
"Aren't you afraid?"
⸻
"What's there to be afraid of?"
Chen He grinned.
⸻
"When I was chopping people up, they ran faster than anyone else."
⸻
That being said...
⸻
But Li Yuanshan still noticed.
Chen He's hand holding the knife.
Actually, I've never really let go.
⸻
Obviously.
He was also on guard.
⸻
"But today..."
Chen He suddenly stopped laughing.
⸻
"It is indeed dangerous."
⸻
Li Yuanshan remained silent.
⸻
"I almost thought I was going to die there."
He said.
⸻
Chen He glanced at him.
⸻
"It's always like this the first time."
⸻
You'll get used to it.
⸻
"Habit?"
Li Yuanshan's face was a little pale.
⸻
"How can you get used to this?"
⸻
Chen He chuckled.
⸻
"The world of cultivation."
⸻
"You didn't kill anyone else."
⸻
"It means someone else killed you."
⸻
"Over time."
⸻
"You'll get used to it naturally."
⸻
When he said this...
His tone was very calm.
⸻
But Li Yuanshan's heart grew heavier and heavier.
⸻
Because he suddenly realized.
I used to think too simply.
⸻
What are the profit margins for medicinal herbs?
What business routes are profitable?
⸻
behind.
It was all knives.
⸻
Just then.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded ahead.
⸻
"stop!"
Chen He suddenly shouted in a low voice.
⸻
The entire team tensed up instantly!
⸻
The sound of swords being drawn rang out one after another!
⸻
Li Yuanshan's heart skipped a beat!
⸻
"here we go again?!"
⸻
Everyone immediately looked towards the mountain road ahead.
⸻
night.
Several figures slowly walked out.
⸻
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
⸻
Li Xuan also slowly stood up.
⸻
A sharp pain shot through my shoulder wound.
⸻
But he still forcibly suppressed it.
⸻
His gaze was coldly fixed ahead.
⸻
however.
next moment.
⸻
Those people remained at a distance and did not approach.
⸻
The leader was an elderly man in gray.
⸻
He glanced at the bloodstains on the ground.
Then he looked at the Li family members.
⸻
At last.
His gaze lingered on Li Xuan.
⸻
"Someone from the Li family?"
⸻
The voice sounded old.
⸻
Li Xuan did not relax.
⸻
"Who are you?"
⸻
The old man in gray smiled.
⸻
"Just passing by."
⸻
"There was quite a commotion over at Duanshikou just now."
⸻
"I thought it was two families fighting tooth and nail."
⸻
Chen He's eyes remained wary.
⸻
"Finished watching?"
⸻
"Make way after you've finished reading."
⸻
The old man in gray was not angry.
⸻
He simply gave Li Xuan a meaningful look.
⸻
"young people."
⸻
"It can force the Blackrock Gang to retreat."
⸻
"It's not easy."
⸻
These words were spoken.
The expressions of everyone in the Li family changed slightly.
⸻
The other party knows about the Black Stone Gang.
⸻
This indicates that he is not an ordinary rogue cultivator.
⸻
Li Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly.
⸻
"Do you know them?"
⸻
The old man in gray smiled.
⸻
"This entire outer area."
⸻
"Who doesn't know the Black Stone Gang?"
⸻
"but……"
⸻
He paused for a moment.
⸻
"You guys need to be careful from now on."
⸻
"They suffered a loss."
⸻
"It won't just end like this."
⸻
Chen He sneered.
⸻
"Do you think I'm afraid of them?"
⸻
The old man in gray shook his head.
⸻
"young people."
⸻
"The Blackrock Gang is the real problem."
⸻
"It's not these people blocking the way."
⸻
"But it's the people behind them."
⸻
Done.
⸻
He said no more.
Take the people and leave immediately.
⸻
The mountain road soon returned to quiet.
⸻
But in the hearts of the Li family members...
But it got heavier and heavier.
⸻
The people behind...
⸻
What does that mean?
⸻
Li Yuanshan subconsciously looked at Li Xuan.
⸻
But then they discovered...
Li Xuan's face had turned completely cold.
⸻
Because he finally realized it.
⸻
Behind the Black Stone Gang.
There was indeed something deeper.
⸻
And the Li family.
We've truly stepped into it now.
⸻
A night breeze blew by.
⸻
The mountain path grew increasingly dark.
⸻
Li Xuan slowly clenched his fist.
⸻
The wound on my shoulder still hurts.
⸻
But he was becoming increasingly clear about it.
⸻
This battle.
not over.
⸻
But -
The real beginning.
