Chapter 1103: No, I Want It Braised

“What? It’s us!” Duan Xiaomo’s excitement vanished. He scratched his head and looked at Ling Chuxi with a troubled expression. “Then what should I do?”

“Stir-fry it with cold sauce and an egg,” said Ling Chuxi finally after a long time.

“No, I want it braised.” Xiaomo answered seriously.

Ling Chuxi’s mouth twitched. She didn’t know what to say. Why did it suddenly feel a little cold?

The crowd didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. How did this conversation change from being a happy one and now a weird one?

At this moment, someone interrupted their conversation.

“Stop!” A stern voice came from the front.

The carriage stopped and Ling Chuxi pulled open the curtain to look out. She saw dozens of men blocking the road. The swords on their bodies flashed with cold light and their faces were filled with hostility.

“Bandits again.” Lan Xinyu jumped out of the carriage excitedly. Although she had beaten up Zhang Yuhong, it hadn’t been much of a challenge. So when she saw the bandits, she became excited again.

“I don’t think so.” Ling Chuxi shook her head.

She wasn’t sure if it was their clothes or the display of their strength, but they seemed more powerful than the bandits they had met before. One of them was calm and fierce. It was obvious that he was well-trained, far from being comparable to the rabble.

“Sect Leader, they are from the House of Blood Fiend**,**” said Zhou Kaitai to Ling Chuxi with a frown.

“Is the House of Blood Fiend very strong?” asked Ling Chuxi. Since they were not one of the big forces and they were not some reclusive family or an expert, she was not too wary of them.

“They are not strong, but they have the advantage in numbers and their attacks are extremely ruthless. The mountain range in front is called Huifeng Ridge. It’s the only way to the inner area of Qianzhong Ridge. The House of Blood Fiend and a dozen other small forces are entrenched in this area. Anyone who passes through must make some ‘payments’ to them before they can pass. Otherwise, they’ll be beaten up so badly that they won’t even be able to keep their lives,” said Zhou Kaitai.

“Before this, if the Zhang family wanted to pass through, would they have to give them some benefits too?” asked Ling Chuxi.

“Yes. We may not be afraid of thieves, but as the saying goes, we are not afraid of thieves, but we are afraid of enemies. No one is willing to make enemies easily,” Zhou Kaitai explained, a little embarrassed.

“Then there is no need to in the future,” said Ling Chuxi casually while looking at the Sword Heart Gang banner fluttering in the wind on their carriage.

“I understand.” Zhou Kaitai followed her gaze and also looked up. He understood what Ling Chuxi meant. Since they had already decided to develop Sword Heart Gang into a major force in Qianzhong Ridge, they naturally didn’t need to be as cautious as before. They could use this opportunity to establish their might and start attacking them.

“The Sword Heart Gang is passing through. Those who don’t want to die, scram!” Zhou Kaitai shouted loudly with vigour and grandeur.

The people on the opposite side were clearly stunned. They had been acting so arrogantly in Huifeng Ridge for so many years. Other than the four major forces, even sects and clans like Thousand Kills Gang would usually present their payments when they passed through. So, this was the first time someone had been so arrogant to defy them, so much so that they couldn’t react in time. Sword Heart Gang? They had never even heard of them before but they actually dared to say such arrogant words to them.

“Don’t you understand? Get lost!” Zhou Kaitai shouted again.

“Big Brother, did I hear wrongly? Someone actually told us to get lost.” That group of people let out a laugh, finally recovered from their shock. It was as if they had heard the funniest thing in the world. They laughed without any scruples while beating at their stomachs.
