Overwhelming Dragon Power!
Su Jie and the others waited at the entrance of the mountain path. Not long after, a bandit returned and reported respectfully: “Magistrate Zhou, please follow me. The chief has already set up a banquet to welcome you.”
“Hmm…”
Zhou Yun nodded slightly. Under the leadership of that bandit, he went up the mountain with Su Jie, Wang Wu, and the others.
Wang Wu observed the terrain along the way and thought to himself, “The Black Wolf Mountain where the Black Wolf Bastion is located at is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack. If I wanted to take down the Black Wolf Bastion, I’ll probably have to send out several times the number of troops. Not only that I will probably suffer heavy casualties!”
Not long after, a mountain stronghold that was mainly made of rocks appeared in front of them. It was the Black Wolf Black Wolf Bastion that was located on Black Wolf Mountain. The entrance of the stronghold, which was like a city gate, was heavily guarded. Under the leadership of the bandits, everyone traveled smoothly.
In the Black Wolf Bastion, many armored bandits were training. If one didn’t know better, they would think that they arrived at a military camp and not a bandits’ den.
Soon, Su Jie and the others arrived outside a hall. The plaque at the entrance of the hall had the words “Juyi Hall” written on it.
“Stop! Please hand over your weapons and let us keep them for you!”
At the entrance of the hall, there were more than ten strong mountain bandits in armor. One of the burly men looked at Su Jie and the others and asked them to hand over their weapons.
Wang Wu and the other two elite guards could not help but hesitate. However, Zhou Yun gave them a look. It was better to be obedient in someone else’s territory.
Wang Wu and the others handed over their sabers.
However, these bandits did not let them pass still. The burly man looked at Su Jie and said coldly: “Are you that Ape Demon? Our Black Wolf Bastion does not welcome people who hide themselves. Take off your mask!”
The other bandits also stared coldly at Su Jie.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe name Ape Demon has risen to fame in Heiye City. He killed many bandits and not long ago, a group of bandits from Black Wolf Bastion also died at his hands.
This time, Zhou Yun came to the Black Wolf Bastion with Su Jie so these mountain bandits wanted to perform a show of strength.
Wang Wu and the others were secretly worried. To not cause trouble, Su Jie wore the ape mask. As a result, even they have not seen Su Jie’s true appearance.
Now, these mountain bandits wanted Su Jie to take off his mask.
Su Jie was unmoved by the fierce gazes. He looked at the burly man and taunted calmly: “If you want me to take off my mask, you can come over and make me.”
“Let me see who you are, you sneaky rat!”
The burly man’s expression turned stern. He was one of the few top-notch experts among the Black Wolf Bandits. He was Qin Heilang’s right-hand man and commanded thousands of bandits. Facing Su Jie’s provocation, he chose to attack without hesitation.
“Whew!”
An air-piercing sound rang out. The burly man stretched out his hand and grabbed at Su Jie’s face as fast as lightning.
“Scram then!”
Su Jie snorted. He did not dodge. Facing the large hand of the burly man, he extended an index finger and poked.
“Pfft!”
The finger poked the burly man’s palm, emitting a crisp sound of flesh tearing. The burly man groaned in pain and staggered back a few steps!
Tick-tock!
Blood seeped from the burly man’s palm and dripped to the ground with a crisp sound.
Upon closer inspection, there was a transparent bloody hole in the man’s palm!
“What?”
The burly man found it hard to believe what just happened.
The finger was undoubtedly fragile and if a single finger was used against an entire tough palm, the collision would most likely break the finger on the spot.
However, it was Su Jie that pierced through his broad palm with a single finger?
The burly man naturally did not know that Su Jie’s Ape Demon King Kong Fist has reached the fourth level, which strengthened and hardened his bones greatly. His bones, even if the weaker ones like his finger, were extremely tough. When he stabbed with force, it was no less than a sharp blade!
“How dare you!”
Seeing that the burly man was assaulted, the other bandits widened their eyes in anger. All of them drew their weapons.
“All right, stand down! This isn’t how you treat your guests!”
At this moment, a dignified voice sounded in the hall.
“Yes!”
All the bandits’ expressions changed to one of respect. The burly man covered his palm and gritted his teeth as he glared at Su Jie. He could only suffer this loss and reluctantly retreat to the side.
Zhou Yun, Wang Wu and the others heaved a sigh of relief. If they really fought, they would definitely not be able to bear the consequences of fighting in someone else’s territory. At the same time, they secretly admired Su Jie’s courage. In the face of such a situation, he did not show any weakness.
Initially, the Black Wolf Bastion wanted to give them a show of strength but in the end, they suffered a loss at Su Jie’s hands and lost face!
Afterwards, Zhou Yun and the others entered the hall.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the hall, there was a wide rectangular table. On the table were dishes filled with delicacies.
At the table sat two people.
One of the men was in his mid-forties. He was tall and rugged-looking with black hair that was carelessly tousled. He had an air of defiance about him, like a wolf.
The other man was the opposite. He was holding a folding fan. He looked refined, like a scholar but his triangle eyes added a cold aura.
“They are the Black Wolf Bastion’s chief, Qin Heilang, and the deputy chief, Tong Yu.”
Wang Wu whispered to Su Jie.
Qin Heilang was the chief of the Black Wolf Bastion. He was skilled in martial arts and was ruthless. He was like a local emperor in the vicinity. Whoever provoked him would only die!
As for the deputy chief, Tong Yu, he was quick-witted and extremely shrewd. The two of them are the pillars of the Black Wolf Bastion.
“Magistrate Zhou, thank you for coming. Come in and take a seat.”
The black-haired, rough-looking, and fierce Qin Heilang laughed heartily and invited Zhou Yun and the others to take a seat.
Zhou Yun nodded slightly and sat down. Wang Wu, Su Jie, and the others also sat down on the other side of the table, facing each other.
“Is this the recently famous Ape Demon? He’s a top expert among first-rate martial artists…” The deputy, Tong Yu, paused his gaze on Su Jie.
Previously, Su Jie easily made the burly man suffer. Tong Yu has also heard of Su Jie’s deeds and knew that Su Jie was not undeserving of his reputation. He was a top-notch martial artist!
“This Qin Heilang is not a simple man… He should be the strongest martial artist I’ve seen so far.” Su Jie was also observing the two leaders of the Black Wolf Bastion. He could sense from Qin Heilang’s aura that he was extraordinary. He was a first-rate martial artist.
For Qin Heilang to be able to establish the Black Wolf Bastion and lead nearly two thousand bandits, his strength was naturally extraordinary.
Zhou Yun looked at Qin Heilang and asked: “Chief Qin, I came here as you wanted. Didn’t you say that you have something to discuss with me? You can tell me.”
Previously, Qin Heilang sent a letter to Zhou Yun. Not only did the letter say that he had captured dozens of people as hostages but that he also had something important to discuss with Zhou Yun. He said that it would be a win-win situation. After thinking about it, again and again, Zhou Yun took the risk to come!
