X-Dragon Era-Chapter 491 355-357: Men Family of Three_5
After signaling Yi Luo Xiang to stay inside the Ethereal City Grand Hotel to stand by, Xin Yun and Ming Xuan, along with Yan Qingying, crossed the golden bridge created by the Taiji Diagram and returned to the celestial world within the pot. Having settled everyone there, they then returned to Ethereal City, and next... they had to find the God of Slaughter—Luo Fu!
It's worth mentioning that, aside from their original tasks, the Five Rat Brothers now had an additional role as purchasing agents. If anyone living within the celestial world needed anything, they conveyed the requests directly to the brothers, who had to obtain the items as fast as possible by whatever means necessary.
Of course, the Five Rat Brothers weren't working for nothing, as contributions to the gang were tallied for every task. Thus, the brothers were quite happy with their situation, eager to unlock the Treasure Sword to its Third Layer after sensing its might.
As Xin Yun and the others left Ethereal City to set off for Luo Fu's location city, riots were breaking out in Shoushan City. The Five Rat Brothers were wreaking havoc; anyone wearing the Dragon Head Gang's insignia became a target for their attacks, and any shops or trading houses bearing the gang's mark were plundered, with goods and merchandise cleaned out, leaving nothing behind.
On receiving this news, the leader of the Dragon Head Gang, Wang Qiang, was furious and personally led his subordinates to the scene of the incident. For several days, such disturbances had been emerging incessantly—this was already the seventeenth riot.

Logically speaking, with the diamond-ranked expert Wang Sheng stationed in Shoushan City, there shouldn't be any trouble from other diamond-ranked adversaries. Unless, that is, they were tired of living. Therefore, it must be a small gang without diamond-ranked experts causing these problems. Did they not know who was backing the Dragon Head Gang? If Wang Sheng returned and the opposing gang lacked diamond-ranked experts, they would surely be exterminated.
In recent days, members of the Dragon Head Gang had been continuously assassinated. Some were inexplicably killed in the bustling streets, others were knocked out in secluded alleys, and still, others were found dead in their own beds. If it weren't for the deep cut nearly severing the neck, one might have thought it was a natural death.
With the situation as it was, the Dragon Head Gang could no longer be considered a small gang; however, they could not sustain such losses. It was one thing for the ordinary members to be hit, but it seemed the gang's upper echelon had also become targets. Bad news arrived daily, and by now everyone in the Dragon Head Gang was living in fear. If they couldn't find a way to resolve the crisis, the gang's collapse seemed imminent.
Turning the street corner, the site of the incident was right ahead. Looking around, the doors and windows of several shops on the street side were smashed, with a dozen bodies scattered chaotically on the roadway, dark purple blood smeared everywhere. Thick smoke billowed from the rooftops of the burning shops, while sparse flaming tongues crackled fiercely.
Seeing the scene before him, Wang Qiang bit down on his teeth in rage, striding towards the burning shops. Who exactly were these people, and why were they causing chaos in the Dragon Head Gang's territory!
"Pat... Pat..." Amidst the crisp sound of footsteps, Wang Qiang, at the front, stepped over a male corpse and was about to bypass a robed female corpse to keep moving forward when suddenly, an incident occurred.
The moment Wang Qiang was about to step forward, the male corpse he had just stepped over sprung up, and in a flash, a glint of cold light aimed for Wang Qiang's lower back in an Explosive Slash.
At the same time, the robed female corpse Wang Qiang was about to step over rotated her body, and with the twist, a chilling gleam whooshed toward Wang Qiang's abdomen.
The distance was too short, the speed too swift, the change too sudden, plus Wang Qiang's attention had been on the burning shops, pondering over the situation. Therefore... facing this abrupt change, he was a bit too slow to react.
It was too late to draw his sword for defense, the proximity was just too close, but... Wang Qiang was still an Amethyst Eight-Star expert, not so easy to kill.
With a shout, Wang Qiang spread his arms wide, and in an instant... a dazzling beam of light burst forth from his body, the violent surge of energy flinging the attackers' bodies into the air as their cold blades pierced him.
Nonetheless, even though Wang Qiang's reaction had been timely, the sword slash and stab still wounded him. Although not gravely, the two wounds—one in front and one behind—bled profusely. (To be continued, for more visit . More chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
