From their vantage point, they could clearly observe Gao Jianfei's residence.
Gao Jianfei didn't leave the house all day today.
"Senior Brother Luo Feizi, do you think Gao Jianfei will come to keep his promise?" a Taoist priest asked Luo Feizi, the leading Taoist priest.
"I can't explain it," Luo Feizi said nonchalantly. "If he doesn't come tonight, we'll storm into his house at midnight and tie him up!"
“Yes, Master Luo Feizi!” Several Taoist priests beside him replied respectfully.
"Fellow disciples," Luo Feizi stood up abruptly, "This time, we have been ordered by the Sect Leader to travel to Japan to capture Gao Jianfei. Almost all of our first-generation disciples have come out. Since we joined the Qingcheng Sect, we have never heard of 45 first-generation disciples going on a mission at the same time. Therefore, both morally and logically, we must complete this mission! If we fail to capture Gao Jianfei, none of us will have the face to return to see the Sect Leader!"
"Don't worry, senior brother, Gao Jianfei won't get away!" the Taoists assured him, patting their chests.
…… …… ……
10 p.m.
Gao Jianfei's home.
Gao Jianfei had finished getting ready and was about to leave.
"Jianfei, let us go with you!" Li Yun and Zheng Cuiyun said, still somewhat worried. "We are practitioners of internal martial arts, after all. We can be of help in dealing with the Qingcheng Sect!"
Gao Jianfei smiled confidently, "Sister Li Yun, you don't need to come along. They're just a bunch of Qingcheng Sect scum. Don't worry, I can handle them all by myself!"
In fact, Gao Jianfei didn't want these Emei women to see him kill. In particular, the way Gao Jianfei disposed of the bodies after the murders would be quite bloody.
Uh, it's just using some of the Heavenly Destruction Elixir we exchanged today to completely destroy the evidence!
Furthermore, after thinking about it all afternoon, Gao Jianfei decided... not to kill all the Qingcheng Sect members! At least, leave a few alive!
Leaving survivors alive is certainly useful...
They could let the survivors escape and go back to tell the Qingcheng Sect leader some false information.
Since they needed to spare their lives, they couldn't take the Emei Sect women with them. Although their appearances had changed, their fighting style remained the same. The Qingcheng Sect members could immediately tell they used Emei Sect martial arts.
Therefore, it's best for Gao Jianfei to handle this matter on his own.
Gao Jianfei smiled at Li Yun and the others, telling them to prepare a late-night snack for him. Then, he went out and disappeared into the night.
Looking at Gao Jianfei's confident and aloof back, not only Zheng Cuiyun and Nie Xiaoxia's eyes lit up, but even Li Yun, a young married woman, was captivated.
After leaving his home, Gao Jianfei headed towards the small hill where he had made the appointment with the Qingcheng Sect the previous night.
After walking for a short while, we arrived at the foot of the mountain.
In a daze, Gao Jianfei sensed that there seemed to be an ambush at the foot of the mountain! However, the aura of the ambushers did not seem to belong to a master of internal martial arts!
After a moment's thought, Gao Jianfei guessed... Hmm, it seems that the Yamaguchi-gumi have been lying in ambush at the foot of the mountain.
Gao Jianfei ignored the ambushes set up by the Yamaguchi-gumi and headed straight up the mountain.
Just as Gao Jianfei reached the top of the mountain, several men dressed as black ninjas emerged from behind some trees and rocks. One of the ninjas pulled out his phone… “Yamaguchi-kun, a man in black has come up the mountain!”
"Understood. Do not take any action for now. Wait until the man in black comes down the mountain, then go up to investigate. If he still hasn't come down within half an hour, then rush up! Remember, the man in black is not the enemy. The enemy is that group of mysterious people on the mountain!"
"Hi!"
Gao Jianfei went up the mountain.
The mountaintop was an open space, where dozens of Qingcheng Sect Taoists were densely packed, some sitting and some standing.
Under the moonlight, Gao Jianfei roughly counted... 45 people!
"Perhaps this is all the manpower that the Qingcheng Sect has mobilized this time? Very good, since they're all here, things will be much easier!"
A chilling murderous intent tugged at the corner of Gao Jianfei's mouth!
"Huh? You're not Gao Jianfei? Who are you?" Immediately, several Taoist priests walked towards Gao Jianfei, while the rest of the Taoist priests stood up.
This time, they flew to Japan without carrying any weapons such as swords. However, they had been practicing internal martial arts for quite some time, and their hands and feet could be used as weapons.
"Hmph! So you must be my nephew Gao Jianfei's enemies?" Gao Jianfei asked disdainfully.
"Hmm? Nephew?" The leading Taoist priest, Luo Feizi, paused, then, by the moonlight, scrutinized Gao Jianfei's appearance...
Aloof, indifferent, detached, uncaring, disdainful, possessing an ancient and refined air, standing out from the crowd...
"Hmm? This middle-aged man seems to have an extraordinary air about him. Who exactly is he?" Luo Feizi's heart sank. He bowed slightly to Gao Jianfei. "Friend, you appear dignified and imposing. Who are you? And what is your relationship with Gao Jianfei?"
"Hmph! With your status, you don't need to know too much!" Gao Jianfei sneered. "All you need to know is that offending my nephew Jianfei is equivalent to offending our entire family! Now, the disaster hasn't happened yet. I advise you to obediently go and kowtow to my nephew to apologize, and then each of you leave a part of your body before you go back to China! Otherwise... you'll all die!"
That was an extremely domineering statement!
"Hahaha!" The Taoist priests laughed instead of getting angry. "Friends, boasting will only hurt your back! We are disciples of the Qingcheng Sect. What family do you belong to? I bet you're just a bunch of ignorant frogs in a well, pretending to be gods!"
They directly invoked the name of the Qingcheng Sect in an attempt to suppress and intimidate them!
"I don't care if you're from the Qingcheng Sect or the Brothel Sect. If you don't do as I say, you'll all die!" Gao Jianfei's words had barely faded when he used his light footwork, his entire body floating forward like a willow catkin, mysteriously drifting to Luo Feizi's side! With a flick of his fingers, the subtle, yin-yang power of the Orchid Flicking Acupoint Hand technique burst forth!
Before Luo Feizi could react, a numbness shot through his chest, and he instantly collapsed to the ground! As he fell, he was horrified... It was acupressure! It was... it was an extremely difficult acupressure technique to master!
Immediately afterwards, Gao Jianfei pointed with both hands in succession, and the hissing sound was incessant!
One by one, the Qingcheng Taoist priests had their middle fingers pointed at their chests or lower abdomens. The One-Finger Divine Force penetrated their bodies like lightning, shattering their heart meridians!
"You treacherous scoundrel! Take this!" A Qingcheng Sect disciple roared in fury, striking Gao Jianfei with both palms!
"Haha, why should I fight you head-on?" Gao Jianfei reached out and stroked the Qingcheng disciple, whose hands fell down, his body went limp, and he collapsed like a rag doll!
Although these Qingcheng Sect disciples are not considered weak in the internal martial arts circle, they are on a completely different level compared to Gao Jianfei, who has mastered the One-Finger Divine Skill and the Orchid Flicking Acupoint Technique!
Although they outnumbered each other, Gao Jianfei's lightness skill was excellent, and he was always able to weave between them. Then, with each flick of his finger, he would kill one person!
Gao Jianfei gave these Taoists no chance to fight back or surround them!
If it were a direct confrontation, it would be obvious that Gao Jianfei would struggle against 45 people by himself. However, by using this hit-and-run tactic, he gained a huge advantage in terms of lightness skill, like an eel. The Qingcheng Sect disciples couldn't even touch the hem of Gao Jianfei's clothes!
One by one, the Qingcheng Sect disciples fell to the ground!
Ten minutes later, the fighting on the mountaintop completely stopped.
Lying on the ground, scattered haphazardly, were all disciples of the Qingcheng Sect!
Among them, several were not directly killed, but were instead immobilized by Gao Jianfei's Orchid Finger Acupoint Technique, which struck their acupoints.
They looked at Gao Jianfei with the utter terror and disbelief that they had for the devil.
After a fierce battle, Gao Jianfei's strength had also diminished. He adjusted his breathing slightly, then walked over, squatted down, and said to Luo Feizi, who was slumped on the ground, "Listen, I'm sparing your lives today, but when you go back, tell your sect leader that if they dare to harass my nephew again, our family will wipe out the Qingcheng Sect! We'll slaughter them until they are extinct, reduced to ashes, and leave no peace for the people! Understand?"
Faced with Gao Jianfei's fierce gaze, Luo Feizi felt a chill run through his body. He was basically unable to form a single effective word and could only nod. He looked at his junior brothers lying beside him, each of them pale-faced and barely breathing!
Gao Jianfei nodded in satisfaction and used the Orchid Flicking Acupoint Technique to release the acupoints of the three surviving Qingcheng Sect disciples.
"Get out of here now! Otherwise, you'll die!" Gao Jianfei said coldly.
Suddenly, these three Qingcheng disciples, like rabbits shot by an arrow, used all their lightness skills to rush down the mountain! They wished they had two more legs!
They dared not approach their fellow disciples lying on the ground any further!
After releasing the three survivors, Gao Jianfei leisurely took out the Heavenly Destruction Powder and decomposed the 42 corpses on the ground into skeletal remains. Then, he put on rubber gloves and threw them all into the Ghost Den.
After finishing all this, Gao Jianfei chuckled sinisterly, "Hehe, that's how you destroy evidence." Then, whistling, he walked down the mountain step by step.
Furthermore, a group of ninjas at the foot of the mountain were waiting for the situation to unfold when suddenly, three Taoist priests rushed down the mountain at lightning speed. They didn't even have time to react, let alone chase and intercept them.
"Hmm? It seems to be those mysterious figures! Where's that man in black?" one of the ninjas asked suspiciously. After a pause, he said to the ninja beside him, "Wait a bit longer, don't go up the mountain for now."
Not long after, Gao Jianfei leisurely walked down the mountain and headed home.
Once Gao Jianfei had gone far away, the ninjas rushed up the mountain.
The mountain was completely empty.
The ninjas were utterly horrified!
"Sato-kun, weren't there dozens of mysterious figures on the mountain? Where are they? Where are they?"
The ninjas searched everywhere, but found nothing.
You should know that there is only one road leading up and down this small mountain! There are no other paths that allow people on the top of the mountain to sneak down!
The ninja leader, Sato, with trembling hands, pulled out his phone and dialed Yamaguchi Harumi's number. His voice was filled with terror as he said, "Yamaguchi-kun, that man in black has already gone down the mountain. We immediately went up to investigate, but we didn't find any of the mysterious figures, not even their bodies! It's as if they suddenly vanished from the face of the earth! Also, before the man in black went down the mountain, three mysterious figures rushed down from the mountain, as if they were fleeing for their lives!"
On the other end of the phone, Yamaguchi Harumi took a deep breath... "Sato-kun, you mean that those dozens of mysterious people were originally on the mountain, but after the man in black went up the mountain, only 3 of them escaped and came down, and the rest all vanished?"
"Yes!"
“Alright, you all return to headquarters immediately. From today onwards, you don’t need to protect Jianfei anymore. He…he…he’s a man with a terrifying background…I…I…I’ve always underestimated his background…I understand now…”
Chapter 365 Negotiation
Chapter 365 Negotiation
After resolving the trouble with the Qingcheng Sect, Gao Jianfei leisurely returned home. In fact, the total time from when Gao Jianfei left home to when he returned was definitely no more than one hour.
Just as the Emei Sect women were getting anxious and even preparing to ignore Gao Jianfei's warnings and secretly run out to meet him, Gao Jianfei had already returned home from outside, hands in his pockets and whistling.
"Jianfei, how is he?" Li Yun asked anxiously.
“No problem,” Gao Jianfei said casually. “I’ve already taken care of things.”
“Uh…” Li Yun choked, “Jianfei, you…you’ve reconciled with the Qingcheng Sect?”
She didn't believe that Gao Jianfei and the Qingcheng Sect had engaged in a fierce conflict, or even a fight; otherwise, Gao Jianfei wouldn't have returned home so quickly. His expression shouldn't be so relaxed either. After all, there were dozens of people from the Qingcheng Sect; if they disregarded their status and attacked Gao Jianfei, it would be a rather troublesome situation.
"Reconciliation?" Gao Jianfei smiled mysteriously, then walked towards the bathroom without comment. "Alright, everyone, get some rest. I've been quite tired these past few days, so I'll rest after my shower today."
Seeing Gao Jianfei's mysterious smile, Li Yun's heart skipped a beat... Could it be? Did Gao Jianfei really fight with the Qingcheng Sect? And then return home safely?
Shaking her head, Li Yun realized she couldn't fathom Gao Jianfei's various behaviors at all. She then returned to her bedroom with her disciples to sleep.
After taking a shower, Gao Jianfei lay down on the bed and fell asleep soon after. You see, since his match with Chen Yifeng, Gao Jianfei had been spending most of his nights in the Ghost Den, and having just experienced a major battle, he was extremely exhausted and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
Early to bed and early to rise makes for a healthy body. The next morning, Gao Jianfei woke up naturally. He lay in bed for a few minutes, smoked a cigarette, and then scanned the virtual screen. His lost exorcism points had recovered to 8500. With these points, he could approach a level 3 talent ghost, but Gao Jianfei's more pressing goal was to find a level 4 medical ghost and then return home to treat his comatose mother! Therefore… he'd save his exorcism points!
After breakfast, Haruko Yamaguchi called.
Gao Jianfei answered the phone with a smile.
"Uh... excuse me, is this Jianfei-kun, or...?" Yamaguchi Harumo asked in a trembling tone on the other end of the phone.
After what happened last night, although Yamaguchi Harumo didn't personally witness Gao Jianfei's brutal killing of the Qingcheng Sect members, he already understood one thing... the power behind Gao Jianfei was something even the Yamaguchi-gumi couldn't afford to offend!
Therefore, Harumi Yamaguchi's tone and attitude appeared unusually humble.
"Oh, it's Yamaguchi Harumi, right? You want to see my nephew Jianfei?" Gao Jianfei deliberately suppressed his voice, making it sound cold and stern. "I've completely cleared up the trouble for my nephew Jianfei. He'll appear in a couple of days, but he's hiding in a relatively safe place for now, so it's inconvenient for him to show his face. What do you need him for?"
