Chapter 12: Firm Determination of Martial Arts

"Alas!"

Lu Tao looked at Jiang Rongrong lying in a pool of blood, his face full of regret, "You, what can't you say in private? You have to provoke the River Crab Emperor. How can you, a mere skin refining realm, offend such an existence?"

"You are looking for death, and you almost implicated me. The River Crab Emperor is in the heavens and the worlds. Who dares to provoke him? Who can defeat him? You have to provoke him, Lu can only bear the pain and kill you."

Lu Tao shook his head and commented: "What a pity, this figure is really great, this face is even more beautiful, less than 20 years old, and a perfect body..."

"Oh my God, it's a sin, a sin."

At this moment, a man chased from not far away, it was the mayor.

The old man in his eighties was radiant at this moment, as if he was ten years younger in an instant, and his face was flushed with excitement. When he chased the Axe Gang before, he killed three late skin refining people by himself.

Because he was worried about Lu Tao's safety, he hurriedly chased after him.

Seeing Lu Tao muttering in a daze and constantly "confessing" to Jiang Rongrong's body, he hurriedly said from a distance: "Lu Tao, you don't have to blame yourself. Although Jiang Rongrong is beautiful, she is not a kind person. Once someone looked at her twice more, she actually ordered someone to gouge out his eyes; she also rode a horse on the street and killed a child, causing him to lose his legs; and because there was a woman with a better figure than her, she cut off her breasts and fed them to the dog... She is extremely vicious."

As if he remembered those bad things, the red light on the mayor's face gradually faded, and he sighed and said: "In short, she is extremely sinful. You killed her to eliminate harm for the people. You don't have to blame yourself, let alone feel guilty."

Lu Tao came back to his senses, coughed to cover up his embarrassment, and smiled: "Don't worry, Mayor, Lu Tao knows all this."

"What a good child, you can't bear to kill a bad guy."

The mayor admired Lu Tao's character and strength.

The mayor looked around but didn't see Jiang Xiong's body. He asked anxiously, "Lu Tao, where is Jiang Xiong? Did he escape?"

When he thought of the consequences of Jiang Xiong's escape, the mayor's face turned pale.

Lu Tao said, "No, Jiang Xiong is dead."

"That's good, that's good."

The mayor was relieved after hearing this. He felt relieved.

For decades, he was really frustrated as the mayor. As the head of a town, he had no way to deal with the Axe Gang. In the end, it was a 17-year-old boy who completely eradicated it.

Fortunately, there was Lu Tao, otherwise, I don't know how long the hard days of Dafeng Town would last.

Lu Tao asked, "By the way, Mayor, where are the other members of the Axe Gang?"

"Don't worry, we killed them all, not one was left."

The mayor said, "Even those who didn't gather at the Axe Gang's lair, there were others chasing them, they definitely couldn't get away."

Lu Tao also breathed a sigh of relief, then thought of something, his face changed drastically, and he hurriedly said, "Oh, no, I'm going to search for the spoils, don't let anyone take them away."

After saying that, Lu Tao hurriedly jumped towards the Axe Gang's compound.

"Don't worry, no one dares to move, they're all left for you."

The mayor smiled, waved his hand and shouted to Lu Tao, but Lu Tao soon disappeared in front of him.

The mayor picked up Jiang Rongrong's body and head and walked back briskly.

...

Back at the Axe Gang, Lu Tao found that everything in the yard was still there, and no one else came in to search.

Suddenly, Lu Tao looked excited and began to search the yard.

This is the Axe Gang.

Over the years, the Axe Gang had plundered a lot of money, and now, it was all his.

However, what made Lu Tao speechless was that he didn't get much money after searching.

All the gold, silver, and even copper coins added together were only about one thousand taels of silver.

As for some jade pendants and jewelry, he estimated that they were not worth much.

"It's not that bad, how could the Axe Gang be so poor?"

Lu Tao was a little dumbfounded and felt it was unreasonable.

He calculated that the purchasing power of one tael of silver was equivalent to 1,000 when he lived in China. This 1,000 taels of silver was only 1 million.

This is Dafeng Town, the Axe Gang that has been established for decades, how can there be so little money?

Unable to find the reason, Lu Tao could only helplessly accept the reality of his overnight wealth and ruin.

Fortunately, he found some other things he needed, such as the cultivation method of the blood refining realm, and two small bottles of blood.

Several other methods and potions.

A tiny grass root was found in a potted plant. Lu Tao estimated that it should be the root of the spiritual grass.

Lu Tao put all these things, including the axe, iron block, and chopsticks thrown out before, into the system space.

Then, he threw all the bodies of Yang Feng and the eleven people into the yard, and then took the long knife and slashed around the yard.

Crazy experience.

Experience +290.

Experience +276.

…

Seeing the rapid increase in experience on the long knife, Lu Tao worked harder.

In a short time, the yard of the Axe Gang collapsed completely and became a ruin.

[Knife: 7631/10,000 (ninth-level middle-grade, sharp blade, cutting iron like mud, can easily cut ordinary iron). ]

Looking at the experience of the long knife, Lu Tao did not continue. His main purpose was to burn the Axe Gang's nest and deal with these bodies at the same time to avoid the plague.

Experience was just a side job.

At this time, the mayor also came back with Jiang Rongrong's body. He seemed to know what Lu Tao was going to do, and threw the body and head into the ruins.

"Young Master Lu, here."

A man next to him handed over a torch.

"Thank you."

Lu Tao took the torch and threw it into the ruins under the gaze of countless people, setting the bedding, clothes, etc. on fire.

Boom...

The fire soared into the sky and spread to the entire yard in a short time.

From then on, the Axe Gang would become a thing of the past.

"By the way, if I made this torch, burning such a yard and so many bodies, how much experience would I gain? I'm afraid it would be enough to upgrade to the eighth-level lower grade."

Lu Tao felt a little regretful that he didn't make a torch before.

"Wuwu... Good death, good death, they all deserved to die, kill them all, wuwu..."

In front of the crowd, the young woman who served Jiang Xiong hugged a seven or eight-year-old child tightly, crying and shouting at the top of her lungs, with a somewhat crazy look, looking at the burning mansion, her eyes filled with endless hatred and humiliation.

"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive, you still have a child..."

Next to her, the neighbors knew her miserable experience and kept comforting her, fearing that she would commit suicide, and gave her hope of life with the child.

"Good! Burn well!"

"Good, well extinguished, the Axe Gang is finally destroyed."

"Dad and Mom, Brother Lu has avenged you."

"Son, did you see it? The Axe Gang has finally been eradicated."

...

"Lu Tao, Lu Tao, Lu Tao..."

Looking at the Axe Gang on fire, everyone was still excitedly celebrating the demise of the Axe Gang at first, and some people knelt on the ground to pray for the dead...

Gradually, everyone began to shout Lu Tao's name.

Finally, the whole Dafeng Town was filled with deafening shouts, and the name Lu Tao resounded through the sky.

"Ahem, that, thank you all, I have something else to do, I'll leave first."

Lu Tao was a little embarrassed by being shouted at, after all, at least hundreds, or even thousands of people shouted together, he had never experienced such a scene, and he just slipped away.

Some children and girls couldn't help chasing Lu Tao.

But Lu Tao was too fast, they couldn't catch up at all, and could only stop panting.

"Mr. Lu, thank you for eliminating the bully for Dafeng Town, Shuiyue Tower will always be open to you in the future."

When Lu Tao passed by the brothel in Dafeng Town, the madam upstairs excitedly greeted Lu Tao, and Lu Tao couldn't help but whispered: "Do you want money?"

"No, no, how dare you ask for money from Mr. Lu?"

The madam laughed so hard that she was shaking with laughter, and shouted directly in the other direction of Shuiyue Tower, "Girls, come over here and greet our Mr. Lu."

Lu Tao's eyes lit up when he heard it.

"Grandpa, look at him, he's really... ugh, a pervert."

The Kung Fu Shop was not far from here, and He Yuanshuang happened to see Lu Tao's infatuated look, and couldn't help but kick his feet hard, almost biting his teeth in anger.

"Eh? What's your tone, Yuanshuang, you can't really like that boy, right?"

He Zongming was a little dumbfounded, he just met him once.

"No, who would like him, hum."

He Yuanshuang stared at Lu Tao angrily, clenching his silver teeth.

Seeing this, He Zongming didn't understand, he couldn't help but slap his forehead and sighed, "What a sin."

"Lu Shaoxia, come up and play."

The footsteps flowed, and soon a group of women came to the window, throwing flirtatious eyes at Lu Tao.

Lu Tao took a closer look, his expression suddenly became solemn, and he said in a concentrated voice: "Thank you all for your kindness, my martial arts heart is firm, and it is not appropriate to linger in the colorful world of the world, goodbye!"

Lu Tao turned around and resolutely left Shuiyue Tower.

"Oh, Young Master Lu, you are disgusted with me, right, I am already twenty-seven years old, and my youth is gone, I am not worthy of Young Master Lu's eyes."

Listening to the jokes behind him, Lu Tao hurriedly quickened his pace, fearing that he could not resist the temptation and went upstairs.

Lu Tao quickly walked to the martial arts shop, and when he saw He Zongming and He Yuanshuang, he was about to say hello, but...

"Hmph!"

The two of them snorted angrily, turned their heads away, and didn't want to pay attention to him.

As expected of a grandfather and grandson, their movements and expressions are surprisingly consistent, just exactly the same...
