Chapter 448: Internal Troubles, External Threats! The Conflict Has Begun!

Fact always triumphs over eloquence.

In the Xicheng District Factory Area Earthquake central zone, a massive amount of gold appeared, letting people see gold in the form of a natural disaster.

The quantity is considerable, and the purity is also high.

Of course, this alone is far insufficient.

Su Yang arranged for Ceng Yunzhong to scatter loose gold at the Xicheng District street area, for a thousand people to dig and loot.

This is also one part of the Deception step.

The real key that makes the lie become reality is actually the Warlord Leader's corpse.

He is the finishing touch!

A person of high rank and great respect, revered by countless, died in Xicheng District.

And not long ago an Earthquake occurred; people have full reason to suspect whether this person happened to die in a natural disaster because he was ecstatic over discovering Jinshan.

The Warlord Leader himself holds an extremely high position, being the leader of myriad soldiers; his death, by a twist of fate, gives people an illusion.

It only requires the people of Qianshou Hall to add a little fire, and through person‑to‑person transmission, the rumor can spread without limit.

Compared with the news, this is the fastest and most convenient method.

From the results, it is easy to see that Su Yang's plan was highly successful.

But Xiao Wenxue thinks Su Yang is talking nonsense, "Do you think I'm a three‑year‑old child? If Jinshan could appear out of thin air, you could now conjure a nuclear bomb for me to see."

Su Yang looked helpless, "Conjuring a nuclear bomb isn't impossible, but you have to give me time."

"Ha?" Xiao Wenxue was startled.

They called him fat, and he even started panting.

What kind of Innate Talent is it to create things out of thin air?

"Creator"?

If Su Yang truly has such terrifying ability, how could he still be trapped by him using a Betting Duel?

"Speaking of it, thanks to your help, you saved me a lot of trouble," Su Yang said with a smile.

"I… help you?" Xiao Wenxue's eyes filled with doubt.

"Of course, if you hadn't used the East City Daily to publicize Jinshan, I might not be able to leave here today," Su Yang said.

At first, Yin Yun was greatly shaken when she saw the news, and immediately drove to Zhuangyuan to raise troops and demand justice.

In her view, this Self‑Destruct Style approach undoubtedly pushes the Six Directions Association into the abyss.

But in Su Yang's eyes — it's both a crisis and an opportunity.

By preheating Jinshan, the common folk can revisit this legend.

Su Yang killed someone on the street, and caused a box containing a Gold Brick to fall to the ground, just letting people see this product from Jinshan.

All these together, why isn't it counted as his help?

"Do you still want to get out of here?" Xiao Wenxue seemed to hear a huge joke, their mouth corner almost stretched to the back of their ear.

"If your companion still intends to keep being a turtle, today is the final deadline for you and me to settle the outcome," Su Yang said.

"Dealing with you, I alone am enough!"

"Arrogant, overbearing, and reckless, that's why you'll never climb to First Place."

"Su Yang, Su Yang, you are only a little over a hundred points higher than me, yet you put on a master's demeanor to preach; from your tone it sounds like you've already won."

Su Yang smiled without replying, and closed his eyes again to rest.

In his view the victory is already decided; dragging him into more talk is just a waste of words.

He firmly believes that today this farce will certainly end!

There are still many tasks ahead, and resting to replenish spirit is necessary.

……

"Boom—..."

In Beicheng District District, the city gate erupted in fire, and terrifying firepower instantly blew it up.

People with stalls on the street were all frightened by that blast, crouching on the ground, eyes full of terror as they looked toward the explosion.

"Who is blowing up the gate?"

"Could it be an exercise?"

"No, it's the army; the army has broken in!"

At those words, the crowd immediately scattered and fled.

When the smoke cleared, several Tanks opened a path ahead, crushing their way into Beicheng District District.

The soldiers tasked with defending were so shocked their liver and gallbladder seemed about to burst, and they hurriedly shouted for someone to report the situation.

The remaining people then took up weapons to resist the invasion.

These intruders into Jinshan City wore black military uniforms, were well‑equipped, and exuded a terrifying aura!

"Bang bang bang..."

Without any warning or proclamation, they met and fought!

This is a war between Warlords, like Divine beings fighting, while the mortals below suffer.

Tanks swallow Fire Snakes, and in the blink of an eye shatter the watchtower, killing dozens in an instant.

"Commander, the gate enemies have been cleared!"

"Mine clearance!"

"Yes!"

The commander, holding Binoculars, surveyed the surrounding troop deployments, and soon a smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Leaderless as a flock of dragons, even the guarding soldiers have been reduced a lot; He Zhenlong truly raised a pack of good dogs."

It didn't take long before his subordinates' demining troops cleared all the Landmines that had been placed nearby.

"Commander, the demining Task is complete, please give instructions."

"Charge straight at the Yellow Dragon! Today I will take Jinshan City in one go!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers' morale surged, as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and they drove out at full speed.

The surrounding civilians neither hindered them nor attacked.

After all, before taking over Jinshan City, they needed to preserve some reputation.

Sometimes... the hearts of people are more important than wealth.

The commander opened a path and found that the soldiers blocking the way were very few.

Thinking of the news received this morning, his heart couldn't stop burning with Fire.

"Jinshan I want, this city I also want!"

…

Xicheng District city gate.

Compared with the violent forced entry in Beicheng District District, this side is much simpler.

With a burst of Guilü pounding on the door, the soldier on guard immediately opened the main gate.

A group of fully armed men walked straight in, and no one blocked them.

The leading middle-aged man had a conspicuous scar on his face; even with an expressionless look, he appeared rather fierce.

"Brother Yang, everything is arranged," a Warlord soldier ran up and said.

"Is the corpse confirmed to be He Zhenlong?" Li Yang asked.

"The family has confirmed, and the forensic doctor has also issued a report."

"Where is your deputy commander?"

"Early this morning, we sent people to Xicheng District Factory Area to maintain order."

"Maintain... order?"

Li Yang scoffed aloud, what a name for 'maintain'.

On the surface it is to prevent civilians from accidents caused by looting, but in fact it is to keep them from touching even a fraction of Jinshan.

With He Zhenlong dead, the demons and monsters below leapt out.

For the Warlords of Jinshan City, whoever possesses Jinshan is the next leader.

"Where is the place, take me there," Li Yang pulled out a Cigarette and lit it.

"The vehicles are all arranged, please follow me."

Li Yang took a strong drag of the Cigarette, slowly exhaled a smoke ring, his face full of calm.

"Let's go, take him down!"

…

Xicheng District Factory Area.

The Ronggui Group, led by Li Yongfeng, gathered hundreds of people here.

The Warlord stood opposite them, pulling up a warning line that allowed no one to enter.

"Li Xian Sheng brought so many people from South City District here, what is his intention?" the Search Army leader of the Warlord asked coldly.

"I'll say it only once, move aside!" Li Yongfeng said.

"From what you say, if I don't allow it, Li Xian Sheng plans to go to war with us?"

"We are all smart people, so I'll get straight to the point, I want a share of Jinshan!"

"Utterly ridiculous, Jinshan is already Warlord property; you, a real estate businessman, have what right to lay a hand on it?"
