Chapter 136

The moment the copper coin fell to the ground, the entire alley became filled with killing intent and coldness. Although it was not long after the beginning of autumn, it already made people feel a chill in their bone marrow.

Suddenly, another light laugh sounded.

"I have been in seclusion for a period of time, I didn't have much money on me, and I just bought a plaque, spending all the money I had."

Yu Liancheng wore a smile on his face: "You gave me a copper coin, I am really very grateful to you, but you must never throw it on my head next time, that is not polite."

But the apricot-yellow young man's face turned cold: "You are a Edo person, you should know our rules."

Yu Liancheng asked curiously: "What rules?"

The apricot-yellow young man said coldly: "If the gold coin falls, the head will not be saved. Your gold coin fell, so your head will have to fall."

After saying this, an autumn wind suddenly blew in the alley, scraping against people, making them tremble.

But the people standing in the circles didn't dare to tremble, because if they trembled, the gold coin on their heads might fall off, and their heads would have to follow.

Yu Liancheng asked strangely: "Since when did such a rule exist?"

The apricot-yellow young man said coldly: "Wherever the Money Gang goes, there is this rule, a rule that everyone in the Edo knows."

Money is originally a vulgar thing. Edo experts all value righteousness over wealth, and anyone who mentions money feels inferior.

But recently, a gang named after money—the Money Gang—had risen.

No one would find this funny.

Because the leader of the Money Gang was the "Dragon Phoenix Twin Rings" Shangguan Jinhong, ranked second on the Weapon Manual.

The Money Gang was originally hidden in the Edo, rarely heard of, but overnight it swept through the Edo with the posture of an overlord, intending to annex other factions and dominate the Edo.

Besides Shangguan Jinhong, there were seventeen top experts on the Weapon Manual in the gang, and now it was the gang with the loudest reputation, the greatest power, and the most abundant financial resources in the Edo.

"Money Gang? I do know such a faction. You must also be high-level figures in the Money Gang." Yu Liancheng smiled.

Before the yellow-clothed young man and the others could speak, Ximen Rou had already sneered: "They are not only high-level figures on the Weapon Manual, but several of them are famous experts on the Weapon Manual. Ninth on the Weapon Manual 'Diamond Iron Crutch' Zhuge Gang, thirty-seventh on the Weapon Manual 'Judge's Pen' Gaoxingkong, forty-sixth on the Weapon Manual 'Flying Spear' Yan Shuangfei, and the 'Poison Mantis' Tang Du who has risen to fame in recent years."

Yu Liancheng smiled again: "But the friend who threw the gold coin at me, his style seems to be the greatest, I don't know who he is?"

Ximen Rou said: "His name is Shangguan Fei, the Shangguan of Shangguan Jinhong."

"So that's it, thank you for the explanation." Yu Liancheng smiled.

Ximen Rou said coldly: "I just think that if a person is going to die, they should die clearly. If you have any other questions, if I know, I will definitely answer them for you?"

"No need!"

This sentence came from the "Diamond Iron Crutch" Zhuge Gang, who said coldly: "The Money Gang has always been very tolerant toward the dead. If you have any unfulfilled wishes, we can do them for you. If you have any grudges unavenged, we can also avenge them for you, not to mention a few insignificant questions."

He smiled faintly and said leisurely: "People who can die at our hands don't have bad luck."

"It's a pity, I haven't enjoyed enough, and I don't intend to die yet."

Yu Liancheng wore a smile: "By the way, these copper coins are wanted by no one, so I will collect them, I am really short of money now."

He shook his arm, and his long sleeves rolled like flowing clouds, and the copper coins that were originally on the heads of the martial arts experts were as if pulled by invisible silk threads, actually rolling into his sleeves one after another.

There wasn't one among the forty-nine people here who wasn't a well-informed old Edo traveler, but this hand of sleeve-rolling, rolling all the copper coins, could simply be called divine skill.

Not to mention having seen it, they hadn't even heard of it.

And there weren't many martial arts in the Edo that used double sleeves as weapons, the most famous being Shaolin's Iron Sleeve Skill and Wudang's Flowing Cloud Flying Sleeve.

Shaolin's Iron Sleeve Skill can make the sleeves as hard as iron, waving them like divine weapons. And Wudang's Flowing Cloud Flying Sleeve is like clouds rolling, stretching freely.

But this person's hand seemed to contain both ultimate arts, and also had some wonderful changes, which was truly unimaginable.

The forty-nine people who were originally standing in the circles looked at each other, and suddenly moved their figures at the same time, those on the roofs went on the roofs, those through the walls went through the walls, but one could see figures flying in the sky, and in an instant they had all escaped cleanly, not one left.

"Judge's Pen" Gaoxingkong's face changed, and he shouted sternly: "You have taken the copper coins of forty-nine people, do you have forty-nine lives to repay?"

"You are so generous to the dead, and I am the same. So I decided to use the martial arts styles you are most proficient in to deal with you, which is my last respect to you."

Yu Liancheng spoke to himself, not answering Gaoxingkong.

Or rather, his words were actually a kind of answer.

He was still counting the copper coins, and after counting all of them, he exhaled, as if muttering to himself: "Very good, forty-nine copper coins, for someone like me who is penniless, it is really a huge sum of money."

"Diamond Iron Crutch" Zhuge Gang's eyes flashed, as if recalling something, and said: "May I ask if the Excellency is the 'Six Extremes Mad Guest' Yu Liancheng?"

Yu Liancheng rolled the copper coins into his sleeves: "That is correct, it is me, but I prefer the nickname 'Six Extremes Immortal Guest'."

"But you are really very arrogant." The speaker was Shangguan Fei, and a pair of dark golden rings had already appeared in his hands like a magic trick, with dragons coiling and phoenixes dancing on them, lifelike.

"Wait!" Zhuge Gang stopped him.

Although Shangguan Fei was Shangguan Jinhong's son, in terms of seniority and martial arts, he couldn't compare to Zhuge Gang, so in real actions, he still had to listen to Zhuge Gang.

Shangguan Fei stopped, and Zhuge Gang's pair of vicious triangular eyes looked at Yu Liancheng, saying: "You said that you are always very generous to those who are about to die, no matter what we ask, as long as you can answer, you will answer, and you will use the martial arts we are most proficient in to kill us."

Yu Liancheng nodded and said: "That is correct, but you cannot ask too many questions, I don't have the patience to answer."

"Fine." Zhuge Gang said: "What kind of martial arts did you use to roll away the copper coins just now?"

"Black Cloud Rolling Rain Covering Heaven Sleeve." Yu Liancheng said: "There is no such martial art in the world, it was created by me combining several sleeve arts, including Shaolin's Iron Sleeve Skill, Flowing Cloud Flying Sleeve, Rolling Heaven Sleeve..."

Zhuge Gang asked again: "You were clearly in seclusion in Shaolin, why did you come out again?"

Yu Liancheng said: "Because I was really bored. Finally, let me remind you again, I don't like forcing people to ask me personal questions, and I don't want to waste too much time."

"Fine." Zhuge Gang's eyes flashed again, and he said: "What martial arts do you intend to use on me? What moves?"
