Chapter 206 - Battle in the Rain
Translator: CKtalon
‘When the large group of gang members threw out their axes, the driver instantly drew the cleaver at his waist and sliced through the carriage’s two shafts with a flash of his saber. The shaft was made of thicker and sturdier wood, so it was obvious that the driver’s saber technique was extraordinary to be
able to slice through it instantly. At the same time, the driver swung his horse whip and struck the horse’s butt.
Neigh!
The horse neighed and immediately charged forward. Its four hooves splashed through the water-logged street as it blindly charged at the gang members in front of it.
“Protect Young Master!” The guards holding sabers and shields roared as they approached the carriage and raised their shields. The 15 guards protected the carriage tightly.
Whoosh.
‘The windows in the carriage were slightly opened, but there was an iron grill. Chang Yi and his maid, Qingyu, looked out the windows on both sides, and they immediately saw the dense number of axes cleaving down! However, the two of them didn’t care.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
More than 100 axes completely enveloped the area. Some landed in the empty space around the carriage, some were blocked by the 15 guards’ shields, and some landed on the carriage. After all, the guards couldn’t protect every inch of the carriage. For example, more than ten axes stabbed into the roof of
the carriage, but the carriage remained intact.
Chang Yi—who especially cherished his life—had long modified the carriage! The surface of the carriage appeared to be made of wood, but there was a thick iron plate inside! Only the window was made of iron grills. The flying axes barely broke through the wood, but they couldn’t deal any damage to the
underlying iron plate.
“It’s up to the three of them now,” Chang Yi said softly.
His voice was very soft, but Xu Jingming, Mr. Lu, and Miss Ziteng—who could control themselves at the cellular level—could hear him. When the three of them faced the flying axes, they only needed to move their feet slightly to have the axes brush past them without touching them at all.

As the horse charged at the gang members, an ax flew out at lightning speed and instantly struck the horse’s head. The horse immediately fell and tumbled twice before turning still.
The gang leader who threw out the ax pointed at the carriage. “Charge!”
“Charge!” “Charge!” “Charge!” The two groups of gang members—front and behind—roared angrily as they charged at the carriage in the middle.
As for the many pedestrians hiding in the distance and some customers in the teahouses, they were watching this street battle carefully!
“Miss, be careful. A bloody battle of this scale might result in concealed weapons flying over.” An elder beside the railing on the second floor of the teahouse exhorted her, but the girl watched excitedly.
“Wow, hundreds of people are attacking the few people around the carriage! A bloody battle of this scale is very rare.”
“But it’s also dangerous,” the elder said immediately.
“These hundreds of people are from the Flower Moon Gang, right?” the girl immediately questioned. “Is the leader of the Flower Moon Gang the white-haired old man who visited us last month?”
“Don’t provoke these hooligans if you can. Be mindful of your words,” the elder reminded, but he didn’t panic. This was because the private room he was in had long been reserved.
It was difficult for others to hear their conversation. Moreover, even if they were heard, their family had nothing to be afraid of.
The girl watched the battle excitedly.
Xu Jingming, Mr. Lu, and Ziteng looked at each other. They usually did some simple sparring and had discussed how to work together against the enemy.
Xu Jingming pulled out the two spear segments on his back, and with a twist, they were locked in place.
As for the tall and stocky Mr. Lu, he instantly took out the two blade discs on his back and held one in each hand. The blade discs were very thin and extremely sharp; they could slice apart things with a single swipe.
“Kill the leader first,” Miss Ziteng said coldly.
“Attack.” The moment Xu Jingming said that, his figure suddenly moved and charged forward.
Miss Ziteng and Mr. Lu flanked Xu Jingming’s sides.
The three of them moved their feet, turning into afterimages as they charged straight for the leader!
“They’re fighting,” Young Master Chang Yi and Qingyu—who were in the carriage—watched through the metal-barred window. The money had been spent, and now was the time to see the outcome.
Meanwhile, the leader led a group of gang members and charged over the puddles. When they discovered Xu Jingming and the others charging at them, they didn’t panic at all. They immediately shouted, “Qualified experts, surround and kill them!”
As long as one reached cellular control, one was a qualified expert; they could unleash speed on the same level as Xu Jingming and the others.
The so-called third-rate, second-rate, and first-rate didn’t have much of a difference in basic combat strength. It was just that there was a huge difference in combat bonus!

One side was densely packed with 180 people, while the other side only had three people!
The two sides collided head-on!
“lying Shackles!” The leader looked at the three people approaching at high speeds and took the opportunity to give the order.
More than ten gang members around him immediately took a step forward in a bid to throw out their chains. These elite gang members had practiced Flying Shackles, but just as they were about to throw them out, Miss Ziteng on Xu Jingming’s left—whose hands appeared empty—suddenly flung
something out.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Shadows that were difficult to discern with the naked eye flew out, and it was impossible to see what was thrown. In fact, they were needles flying at high speeds!
The elite gang members who wanted to throw the Flying Shackles were penetrated through the head one after another. More than ten gang members were penetrated and killed in a single strike!
It was so fast and so precise that it was almost magical.
Although Xu Jingming also carried flying daggers, his concealed weapon techniques were far inferior to Miss Ziteng’s.
“I’s a second-rate expert.” The leader’s expression changed as he immediately shouted angrily, “Kill that woman first!”
A second-rate expert was already very rare. If one joined a large gang like the Flower Moon Gang, they would typically be at the level of a hall master or vice hall master.
Of the many elites in the gang today, none of them were second-rate experts! However, the leader didn’t panic. They had the absolute advantage in numbers, and several of their main forces were third-rate experts.
Whoosh.
The faces of the gang members turned ferocious, and none of them retreated—the price of retreating was something they couldn’t afford. They held their sabers and shields and surged over like a tidal wave, hoping to drown Xu Jingming and the others! Moreover, there was more than one third-rate
expert hidden among these gang members!
Rip! Rip!
Mr. Lu held two blade discs, and the blade discs spun, instantly slicing through the vital spots of the gang members that lunged forward! Even though they carefully protected their heads with their shields, their bodies would be split into two once the blade discs swept past their waists or other spots.
Mr. Lu culled them wantonly and even threw out the blade discs in his hand. The two blade discs spun at high speeds and sliced in all directions—even the tough shields were sliced open!
The two blade discs produced a rain of blood before being blocked by the consecutive shields. At this moment, Mr. Lu threw out two other blade discs and held the fifth blade disc in his hand. At the same time, he caught the blade discs that had lost their momentum.
Of the five blade discs, three were flying a distance away, and two were in his hands! When combined, they were unpredictable!
At Mr. Lu and the others’ level, they could deliver tens of thousands of kilograms of force. It was a nightmare for their opponents once he used his exquisite blade disc technique! It was best at slaughtering, and the resulting blood mixed with the rain.
However, among these three
Xu Jingming was the spearhead, and he was the one under the greatest pressure among the three! He needed to break through the tide-like gang members, and wherever his spear passed, he parted the crowd.
The tide split in two, unable to stop the three of them at all.
“Kill them!” The leader of the gang members had a ferocious expression.
‘The gang members held shields in one hand and cleavers in the other as they cleaved furiously at the incoming barrage of attacks! As long as they could secure a hit… they could kill these so-called qualified experts.. This was because everyone in the world was ultimately flesh and blood—they could be
killed with a single strike!
