Chapter 64: Fear

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Herlyee Translations

Lei Hu had already thrown the Gang Master’s chair to the side.

He faced the wall and stood quietly. His right hand pressed against the pulse of his left hand with a solemn expression.

On the wall opposite him hung a huge painting that was as tall as a person. On it was a fierce black tiger that raised its head to the sky, as if it was roaring.

Suddenly, dong dong dong.

Old Wolf walked in quickly, his footsteps making hurried sounds.

However, when Lei Hu heard his footsteps, his face turned pale. His body swayed slightly, as if he had suffered a huge disappointment.

“Gang Master, as you expected, the gang members guarding the door have all been defeated. That masked man in black has already entered.”

A strong unwillingness appeared in Lei Hu’s eyes. He asked as if he did not give up, “Is that person injured?”

Old Wolf shook his head solemnly. “I saw blood on him, but it doesn’t seem to be his own.”

Lei Huls body suddenly trembled, and his aura suddenly became chaotic, as if he had aged ten years. “The heavens want to destroy my Black Tiger Gang.. Old Wolf was puzzled. ‘Gang Master, why do you say that?”

Lei Hu raised his left hand, and his face turned pale. “From the moment I instructed you to retreat until you entered just now, my pulse has jumped a total of 353 times. ‘

“Gang Master?” Old Wolf didn’t understand.

Lei Hu said bitterly, ‘Three hundred and fifty-three times. After subtracting the time you took to return, there are only one hundred and fifty three times left.

“In other words, the masked man in black killed all our high-level gang members in just a hundred and fifty-three beats of my pulse. Moreover, he is unscathed! ”

Lei Hu looked at Old Wolf, and there was an uncontrollable trace of panic in his eyes. “Do you think this is something a Strength Realm martial artist can do?”

Old Wolf’s aged face trembled violently.  Realm? That’s impossible, Leader! We’ve clearly dealt with the Tough Realm experts related to our Black Tiger Gang carefully!’

Lei Hu shook his head. He knew very well what kind of business the Black Tiger Gang did.

No matter how careful he was, he could not avoid accidentally provoking unfamiliar experts.

But why did it have to be at this time?

Just as the Thunder Token was at his fingertips and he was about to soar, it destroyed three years of his hard work!

How unfair was the heavens!

Old Wolf was frightened by the words Tough Realm. “Leader, then what are we waiting for here? Let’s go quickly! If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late!’

Lei Hu was much calmer than him. He sighed and said, “There’s no hurry. The ten Black Tigers went to Qinghong Martial Arts School to further their studies. Although they haven’t been able to defeat the Tough Realm, when the opponent isn’t familiar with their formation, they can still rely on their martial equipment to stop and delay the enemy for half an hour.”

The panic in Old Wolf’s heart subsided a little. “Gang Master, then next…”

Lei Hu ignored him.

He looked at the huge black tiger picture on the wall in a daze and sighed. “It looked like a black tiger before, but why does it look more like a cat disguised as a tiger now?”

He had spent ten taels to hire a famous artist from the Inner Circle. It was said that the artist had seen a real tiger. He had painted this tiger for him to pray for the gang’s luck.

Unfortunately, the old painter was probably bluffing. The more he looked at the black tiger, the less ferocious it became. It was like a black cat that was commonly seen by the roadside.

“Old liar…

Lei Hu stretched out his hand into a claw and grabbed fiercely. He directly grabbed the black tiger painting in front of him and tore it forcefully.

The entire painting of the black tiger was pulled off. Behind it, there was a secret compartment with a black wooden box.

Lei Hu took it out with both hands and opened the wooden box. A golden light flashed, and Old Wolf’s eyes instantly widened.

In the wooden box lay four golden bars and a few silver ingots.

Lei Hu placed the Thunder Token and the letter in the wooden box in his arms. He closed it and hugged it tightly.

“Let’s go! As long as there’s life, there’s hope! As long as we complete the

Thunder Token, we can make a comeback and even go up a few steps!’

“Gang Master is wise!”

As if he was deliberately hypnotizing himself, Lei Hu’s dejectedness from before was swept away. The flames of ambition burned in his eyes again, and he completely recovered the majestic spirit of a Gang Master.

With Old Wolf, he turned around and was about to leave through the other door.

Suddenly.

“So, what’s the Thunder Token?’

An unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded in the empty Hall of Justice.

This voice was clearly a question, but it did not seem stern.

Instead, because it was mixed with a kind of casualness and ease that seemed like he had finally achieved his goal after pursuing relentlessly, it caused his voice to seem slightly gentle.

However, it was this gentle and calm voice that was like a bolt from the blue, causing Old Wolf and Lei Hu to instantly freeze on the spot.

Like a bolt of lightning, a layer of cold sweat instantly appeared on Lei Hu’s back. He could not believe his ears. He heard this unfamiliar and terrifying voice at this moment.

What about the ten Black Tigers?

By all accounts, the encounter between the mysterious masked man and the ten Black Tigers was less than one-tenth of half an hour!

Even if he was at the Tough Realm, it was impossible for him to wipe out the ten Black Tigers in such a short period of time!

“You, who are you!”

Lei Hu asked in a trembling voice, but his neck seemed to be filled with lead. He did not dare to turn around.

However, there was no answer behind him. There was only a series of footsteps that sounded like the man was taking a stroll in the park. He was approaching quickly.

Lei Hu and Old Wolf clearly realized that these were the footsteps of the Grim Reaper!

Furthermore, it was stepping on their lifeline!

The fear that seemed to crush one’s soul was far more terrifying than death.

Old Wolf finally couldn’t take it anymore. He turned around and shouted,

“Leader, leave quickly! I’ll fight that guy to the death!”

From the corner of his eye, Lei Hu saw Old Wolf waving his cane and rushing back crazily.

However, before Lei Hu could take a step forward to run off…

Bang!

With a dull thud, Old Wolf’s body was sent flying at a right angle at an even faster speed. He hit the wall and twisted his limbs before falling limp. His face was in front of Lei Hu. He was shocked, terrified, and died with remaining grievances. It was as if he had seen some unimaginable horror.

“Old wolf!”

Lei Hu let out a tragic cry. Immediately after, a huge fear that made people unable to breathe seized his mind.

The voice behind him spoke again, as if with a relaxed sigh. ‘The ten people outside were all martial artists. They died one after another and were killed by me to the last person. None of them begged for mercy.

“This subordinate was willing to die to buy you time to escape.

“Black Tiger Gang’s leader, you’re really good.”

Lei Hu could tell that there was a strange gentleness in this mysterious masked man’s voice.

Could it be that they were not mortal enemies?

This made his brain instantly start to work at an extremely high speed. He tried everything he could to seek the possibility of survival.

When the footsteps were only a thought away from him, Lei Hu’s mind lit up. He had found the only chance of survival!

He tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart and barely said in a calm tone, “Don’t kill me. Everything I have is yours!”

The footsteps behind him seemed to have paused.

Lei Hu said loudly, “I’m not referring to what’s in my hand, but myself! Let me go and I’m willing to submit to you, even if I have to be a slave..”
