Chapter 624

Releasing the hilt, Su Xiao opened the nearby window. A chubby man with his throat pierced was hung in mid-air, his limbs struggling weakly, his eyes rolling back.

Su Xiao's blade had been without warning; piercing the enemy's throat had some element of luck.

"You bas..."

The chubby man with his throat pierced looked at Su Xiao. He gripped the blade of Checking Zhan Long Shan tightly with both hands to prevent falling from the building.

The Boundary Line sprang out to bind the opponent, and he pulled Checking Zhan Long Shan out of the wall. As he tightened the Boundary Line, the chubby man was forcibly dragged into the room from the window, and a large patch of blood stained the carpet.

The chubby man lay on the carpet, with a clear blade wound at his throat.

"Something up?"

Su Xiao stood in front of the chubby man. The opponent had sneaked near him in this way; he definitely didn't have good intentions.

"My legs have lost sensation."

The chubby man held his throat, his words somewhat unclear. He stared at Su Xiao with sinister madness: "You know who you've offended, I am..."

Before the chubby man could finish speaking, the long blade in Su Xiao's hand slashed down, and the arm pointing at him was severed. The intruder held his severed arm and rolled on the ground in pain. The intense pain produced by the Qing Gang Ying energy made him look like a dehydrated shrimp.

"I'll give you one chance to reorganize your words."

"Wai... wait, I am the Shadow Beast Leech, a subordinate of the Ten Dons. Let's talk."

The chubby man was the Shadow Beast Leech who was killed in seconds by Uvogin of the Phantom Troupe in the original work. As for the purpose of finding Su Xiao, it was likely related to the One-Eyed Giant.

"Oh? A subordinate of the Ten Dons, what's the purpose?"

Su Xiao had just spoken when rapid footsteps came from outside the door. Hearing these footsteps, killing intent surged in the Shadow Beast Leech's eyes. His partner had come; he seemed to have already seen the enemy's body full of leeches, struggling in pain.

Bang!

The door was kicked to pieces. Leech let out a short, sharp scream. As someone rushed into the room, the scream stopped abruptly.

A skinny man with a spiky hairstyle and a mouthful of fangs rushed into the room. After seeing the situation in the room, his pupils constricted. The newcomer was named Rabid Dog, one of the Ten Shadow Beasts.

A head rolled to Rabid Dog's feet; it was the head of the Shadow Beast Leech.

"Came late."

Rabid Dog kicked away Leech's head and looked at Su Xiao with cold eyes.

"Daring to kill a Shadow Beast, don't think about leaving Yorknew. We will hunt you to the ends of the earth."

Although Rabid Dog was making threats, his footsteps were gradually retreating. Leech had died inexplicably, which made Rabid Dog very wary of Su Xiao.

"Shadow Beasts are just at your level?"

Su Xiao looked Rabid Dog up and down. The opponent didn't feel dangerous to him. As for the previous Leech, he was even more unbearable; the opponent's nerve reflex speed was only slightly higher than an ordinary person's, so it was impossible to dodge his stab.

Being looked up and down by Su Xiao like this, Rabid Dog felt a bit uneasy, as if he were being stared at by a fierce beast.

"Attack."

Rabid Dog shouted. The gang members holding firearms behind him swarmed in, and in an instant, dozens of people rushed into the room.

A metal wire suddenly tightened, and all the gang members who had rushed into the room stopped.

Pata, pata...

Severed limbs were scattered on the ground, and a rich, bloody smell spread. Fresh blood soaked the carpet. These gang members were just ordinary people; the outcome of fighting Su Xiao was imaginable.

Rabid Dog at the door had already disappeared. Su Xiao looked at Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang.

"Chase."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang darted out of the room, and Su Xiao followed closely behind.

Five minutes later, in a dark alley.

With a bang, a blood-covered figure hit a trash can and rolled into a sewer. This person was Rabid Dog.

Su Xiao walked in front of Rabid Dog. A piece of flesh had been bitten off his left shoulder. Rabid Dog's strength was not strong, and his defense was not much either, but his speed was extremely fast, and there was neurotoxin on his teeth that could paralyze the enemy. If it weren't for the Qing Gang Ying resisting the neurotoxin, it would have been very troublesome.

"You bastard... The Ten Dons won't let you off. If you have the guts, kill me."

Rabid Dog gasped for air. His lungs had been pierced, and every breath was accompanied by heart-wrenching pain.

"Strength isn't much, but you have backbone."

Su Xiao stood in front of Rabid Dog, his brows locked. Being hostile to the Ten Dons was a bit troublesome; these guys were local snakes after all. But Leech and Rabid Dog had already come to his door, and given the arrogance of the Shadow Beasts and Su Xiao's temper, there would definitely be no good outcome if the two sides met.

The fact was exactly so; Leech had already become a purple treasure chest + 1.2% World's Source + 11 Mana, and Rabid Dog was almost there too.

"Di di di..."

A ringing sound came from Rabid Dog's jacket pocket. Su Xiao stopped the long blade he had already stabbed down because he saw the caller on the phone that was half-exposed.

He took the phone out of Rabid Dog's jacket pocket. Rabid Dog didn't move, only his teeth chattered. The blade had already pierced his skull, and the tip of the blade had even penetrated the skull a bit. That cold touch—if he hadn't had a strong enough mind, he would have already pissed himself.

The caller on the phone was "Ten Dons (Main Family)."

The Ten Dons faction had ten leaders and ten Shadow Beasts. These Shadow Beasts had their own bosses. The one calling this time was Rabid Dog's boss.

Su Xiao answered the phone, and an anxious voice came from the receiver.

"Little brother Rabid Dog?"

"No, Rabid Dog is about to die."

Hearing Su Xiao's words, the other side of the phone was silent for a moment.

"What price will it take to spare Rabid Dog's life? How about five billion Jenny?"

One of the Ten Dons was generous, offering five billion Jenny right off the bat. This undoubtedly revealed a piece of information: the Ten Dons faction had very few strong people, and the Shadow Beasts were their biggest trump card and could not afford any mishaps. Moreover, this was Yorknew, the Ten Dons' turf. The opponent definitely knew Leech was dead. Shadow Beasts were so important, yet the opponent hadn't mentioned a word about Leech, which was very interesting.

"You really want Rabid Dog to live?"

A thought suddenly appeared in Su Xiao's mind. The Ten Dons had financial resources and were in urgent need of strong people to hold the scene. In this way, could he join the Ten Dons faction at a high price? As for Leech, whom he had killed, as long as the Ten Dons had a bit of brains, they wouldn't mention this matter unless they wanted Rabid Dog to die too.

"Of course. I don't know what requirements you have, sir."

That Ten Don member's attitude was firm.

"Let's not talk about this for now." Su Xiao pondered for a moment and said: "Leech was killed by me."

"I've heard. Your strength is extraordinary, sir."

The Ten Don's tone was calm—no, rather, he seemed to be gloating over Leech's death.

"Leech wasn't your subordinate?"

"This is a secret of our side. I can only say that I am very 'regretful' about Leech's death."

Su Xiao laughed. It was indeed the same as he had imagined. The Ten Dons were ten gang leaders from different regions; how could the gangs be of one mind? The reason they united was because they were weak.

From the original work's information, one could conclude that the Ten Dons were relatively wealthy but lacked strength. It was no wonder the Phantom Troupe had set their sights on them.

"I don't know which faction you belong to, sir? The Hunter Association? The Amon-Sen Trading Company? Or..."

"Just a traveler wandering around, participating in the Yorknew auction when I have nothing to do."

"A traveler?"

The other side of the phone fell silent. After a long time, the Ten Don on the other side spoke.

"Mr. Traveler, in twenty minutes, I will host a banquet for you on the 30th floor of the York Hotel. We'll talk then. Bring Rabid Dog."

"Can do."

Su Xiao hung up the phone and looked at Rabid Dog lying on the ground.

Rabid Dog didn't make a sound. He knew he wouldn't die for the time being, and he wasn't stupid; he knew it was best not to speak now.

However, being stared at by Su Xiao like this, the skinny Rabid Dog felt a bit uncomfortable.

Su Xiao hesitated for a moment, and an alchemy bomb appeared in his hand. He first punched Rabid Dog's stomach hard, and Rabid Dog let out a miserable groan.

That alchemy bomb quickly decomposed, and as Rabid Dog vomited acid, it seeped into his body through the blade wounds on him.

"You..."

Rabid Dog was very angry, but he shouldn't have acted out.

"Stand up, take me to the York Hotel."

Rabid Dog looked up at Su Xiao and snorted coldly. Just as he was about to stand up, he felt a tearing sensation on the side of his cheek. After a burst of numbness, Rabid Dog screamed, and a bloody ear appeared in Su Xiao's hand.

"You just... snorted, right?"

Su Xiao casually threw down the ear. One had to be ruthless enough to these gang members who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Moreover, Rabid Dog's blood was full of alchemy bombs; he couldn't make any waves.
