Chapter 104: Eating Meat Tonight

"The Wolf Pack?"

"They're just a bunch of bandits who specialize in targeting people like you who strike it rich overnight!"

Sister Hua lowered her voice and said.

"Oh? Didn't you say it's very safe to win money here in the Qingyuan Boxing Stronghold?"

"It is naturally safe inside the boxing stronghold; no one dares to act recklessly, but once you leave the stronghold, no one will care about you."

"Is this so-called Wolf Pack very formidable?"

"They don't dare to target the powerful and wealthy, so they specifically pick on people like you who have no background but have earned a lot of money."

"How do they know I have no background?"

"Haha, if you had a background, you would have revealed it already instead of hiding your identity and acting so mysterious. Besides, these days you can hire a killer for a hundred yuan, let alone tens of thousands? Wealth stirs the heart."

"Hmm."

Li Fei nodded and looked at Liu Saner, who was to the side. "Do you have any suggestions?"

Liu Saner hurriedly said, "My suggestion is that you stay in the boxing stronghold for this period to avoid the limelight. As long as you are in this boxing stronghold, absolutely no one will dare to make a move on you."

Li Fei: "Do you expect me to hide in this boxing stronghold for the rest of my life?"

Liu Saner: "I will keep helping you keep an ear out. After a while, when the other side isn't watching so closely, I'll find an opportunity to send you out secretly."

Li Fei shook his head. He had to go to Hao Yi's place every day to practice martial arts, and if he didn't go home for more than a day, Li Lei would definitely be worried.

"Or, if you trust me, you could also deposit the money with me first."

Sister Hua, who was to the side, suddenly said.

Li Fei didn't even look at her and said directly, "I don't trust you."

Sister Hua rolled her eyes: "Then you're on your own. Sister hopes to be able to work with you again in the future."

After saying this, she turned and left.

"Let's go, get ready to head out."

Li Fei said to Liu Saner.

Liu Saner looked at him with worry: "You still intend to leave the stronghold tonight?"

"Yes, take advantage of this time to tell me all the intelligence you have regarding the Wolf Pack."

Li Fei said as he walked forward.

". lright."

Liu Saner sighed and could only nod in agreement.

In a room, only a kerosene lamp was lit on the table, and the light was somewhat dim.

Sitting by the table was a man with a sinister expression.

He was the leader of the "Wolf Pack"—Ghost Wolf.

In the shadows around the room, there were figures standing or sitting; they were all members of the "Wolf Pack."

Suddenly, someone pushed the door open and walked in. Looking at the man sitting by the table, he spoke:

"Boss, that kid is heading toward the main gate. It looks like he's going to leave the stronghold tonight."

"He's got quite a lot of nerve."

Ghost Wolf smiled, "Then have the brothers get ready."

"Boss, that kid's background is unknown. Are we really going to move?"

In the shadows, someone asked.

Ghost Wolf turned his head to look over, his eyes sinister: "This kid is deliberately hiding his identity and doesn't dare to show his true face; most likely he has an identity that can't see the light of day, so what is there to fear? He has over forty-six thousand yuan on him. Even if the King of Heaven himself comes tonight, I'm determined to take him down!"

As he spoke, he took a double-barreled revolver from his bosom:

"After we finish this job, we'll leave Xingcheng and go stay outside for a year or so to avoid the limelight."

The people in the room looked at the gun in his hand and all felt their boss's determination.

The laws of the Great Lan Dynasty emphasize that "the officials do not investigate unless the people report it." As long as no one files a report, unless the matter becomes a huge scandal, the government will not interfere.

Therefore, even though people die in the Qingyuan Boxing Stronghold from time to time, one never sees the people from the Inspectorate come to manage it.

But once a gun is used, the matter will definitely blow up and will draw the Inspectorate to intervene.

Ghost Wolf deciding to use a gun meant he was clearly willing to pay any price to finish this job!

With that, no one in the room had any further objections.

"The target is a formal martial artist, so follow the highest specifications."

Ghost Wolf said, holding the gun in his hand, and was the first to walk out of the room:

"Brothers, keep your spirits up. We're eating meat tonight!"

"The Wolf Pack has pulled off two big jobs before, and both times they killed fighters from the Heaven-class boxing ring who were formal martial artists."

On the way out of the stronghold, Liu Saner seized the time to tell Li Fei about the situation with the "Wolf Pack."

"What were the cultivation bases of the two killed martial artists? How many people are in the Wolf Pack in total? Are there any formal martial artists? Are there any Martial Masters? What weapons are they skilled with?"

Li Fei asked very meticulously.

"The two killed martial artists were both at the mid-stage of Body Breaking, and were experts on the Heaven-class ring. I don't know the exact number of people in the Wolf Pack, but there are at least ten or more. There should be formal martial artists, but definitely no Martial Masters. I'm not clear on what weapons they are skilled with, but there is a high probability that the other side has guns!"

Liu Saner said.

"Hmm, anything else?"

"The other side definitely won't fight you openly; they will launch sneak attacks and play dirty. They might use any means possible. This is different from the ring matches, you must be very careful!"

"Alright, that's enough, you can stop here."

At this moment, the two had already arrived at the main gate of the Qingyuan Boxing Stronghold, and Li Fei stopped his steps to say to Liu Saner.

Liu Saner looked at Li Fei, wanting to say something but hesitating.

Li Fei said indifferently: "Do you have a telephone at home?"

"Yes!"

"Tell me the number."

So Liu Saner reported a string of numbers.

"Hmm, I will contact you by phone later. You don't need to come here to wait for me every night."

Li Fei said finally, then turned and walked outside the boxing stronghold's gate.

Liu Saner could only watch helplessly as he slowly walked out of the gate, watching his back being swallowed bit by bit by the darkness in the distance.

After walking out of the boxing stronghold gate, Li Fei began to run at full speed.

Although he was confident he could deal with the "Wolf Pack" hiding in the dark, he would not move slowly and give the other side ample time to prepare.

At this moment, he had a newly replaced steel saber strapped to his back, wore an anti-stab vest under his black martial robe, and had lime powder prepared in his pocket.

To avoid exposing his identity, he did not bring the Thunder Dragon pistol that Huang Wei had given him.

Besides that, unless absolutely necessary, he did not intend to use the extraordinary ability "Tyrant Body" of his steel armor implant.

The trump cards left for the identity of "Green-Faced Ghost," besides the Ten Thousand Blood Bead, also included two Blood Soul Skills.

After running for a short while, Li Fei suddenly heard a strange whistling sound, like a wolf's howl:

Woo—

"Is it the Wolf Pack people passing a signal?"

Li Fei made an inference.

At this moment, not far ahead of him was a fork in the road. The street on the left was brightly lit, with many small stalls and vendors, and people coming and going.

The street on the right was pitch black, with no lights and no figures to be seen.

Li Fei decisively chose to run toward the street on the right.

As soon as he ran into this street, the whistle that sounded like a wolf's howl became even more urgent.

The cold moonlight spilled onto the eerie street, stretching Li Fei's shadow very long.

The steel armor implant in his body began to produce an anomaly, making him sense the arrival of danger.

With a clang, Li Fei drew the steel saber from his back:

"Then let's see who eats whom tonight!"
