Chapter 16 No One Gets Away!

On the way to the venue, Ye Chengfeng inquired, "What's the current situation?" Situhanglin replied, "Everyone interested in acquiring soldiers from the Black Dragon Army has gathered. The Triad, the Nine Dragon Gang, the Qiao Family, and other factions are all present, totaling over three thousand individuals." Ye Chengfeng listened as Situhanglin shared all the information he had gathered. Ye Chengfeng then asked, "And what about your allies?" Situhanglin shook his head and explained, "This mission was kept discreet. I've enlisted all the reliable and capable subordinates I could find, but we only have a group of seventy." "Our strategy is to initially attempt to heal the soldiers using herbs and remedies. If that fails, we may have to resort to more forceful methods. Despite being outnumbered, there's still a chance." Situhanglin was not optimistic about their odds, aware of the low success rate. However, he knew that this was their only opportunity to act. Ye Chengfeng, on the other hand, disagreed, his eyes gleaming with a fierce determination. "No, my objective is to eliminate them all, leaving no one behind!" The Black Dragon Army, once a valiant force of the Dragon Kingdom, had now been reduced to mere commodities for sale. There were even despicable individuals from the criminal underworld seeking to acquire them. Ye Chengfeng was resolute in ensuring that no one escaped justice. Situhanglin's expression turned pale as he exclaimed, "This is impossible! Seventy against three thousand? They could overpower us with ease!" He then added, "And what about your health?" In Situhanglin's view, Ye Chengfeng's plan seemed far-fetched. Despite Ye Chengfeng's frail appearance, he held thirty-two pills in his hand and asserted confidently, "You have yet to witness the true might of the Black Dragon Army. Despite my physical limitations, I fear no one." Having consumed a potent thousand-year ginseng, Ye Chengfeng was prepared for any confrontation. His strength was unmatched in the Central Sea. Situ Hanlin, however, doubted Ye Chengfeng's unwavering confidence. Was he truly the legendary Black Dragon War God? Situ Hanlin chuckled to himself, knowing that the Black Dragon War God had perished five years ago. Their only hope now was for their plan to unfold smoothly. Suddenly, Ye Chengfeng issued a warning, "Keep a close watch on the Li family. They may be collaborating with Gao Yuan, and I fear they might target Li Wanrou." "Understood," Situ Hanlin acknowledged, following through on the directive. In the black market, a makeshift auction was underway on Four Finger Mountain in the Central Sea. The surrounding area was teeming with robust men clad in black armor, armed with weapons, creating a formidable presence. These were individuals entrenched in the criminal underworld. At the center of attention was the main attraction of the auction - thirty-two Black Dragon Army slaves. The leaders of the Triad, the Nine Dragons Gang, and the Qiao Gate, along with other prominent figures, were all present, eager to acquire these valuable assets. For them, capturing and exploiting these soldiers meant bolstering their own forces and eliminating adversaries swiftly. The stakes were high as the fate of the Black Dragon Army slaves hung in the balance. They are bound in chains, covered in scars, with festering flesh and blood, and not a single piece of their skin is intact! On their sternums, there is a steel barb, piercing their bodies, locking their sternums, rendering them completely powerless! Despite this, they still carry heavy shackles, even on their ankles! Nevertheless, the thirty-two soldiers of the Black Dragon Army still glare fiercely at everyone, like hungry wolves ready to attack! At this moment, Gao Yuan stood in the midst of the crowd, kicking a Black Dragon Army slave to the ground, smiling at those around him, saying, "Gentlemen, these are the Black Dragon Army slaves you have been dreaming of, and the method to obtain them is simple, kill Ye Chengfeng, and they are yours!" The president of the Triad, Li Qiankun, sneered, "Haha, Ye Chengfeng, I know, just a waste from the Li family who has been in a coma for five years, easy to deal with!" The leader of the Nine Dragons Gang, Wang Tianhai, said in a deep voice, "We can kill him now, but you must give me these slaves!" Gao Yuan laughed heartily, "Of course, my offer remains the same. Whoever can kill Ye Chengfeng will own these Black Dragon Army slaves!" "If I want to buy them all, give me a number, I won't haggle!" Just then, a voice came from the crowd, and Situ Hanlin was seen leading a group of people towards them. Due to the darkness, Ye Chengfeng's face was not visible. "Situ Hanlin, how dare you come here?" Gao Yuan was taken aback, then a cruel smile appeared on his face, "I knew that your Situ family was connected to these remnants of the Black Dragon Army, and now it seems to be true!" Situ Hanlin spoke in a deep voice, "I don't want to talk to you. I only want these Black Dragon Army soldiers. Just give me the people, the price, the medicine, whatever you want!" He still wanted to resolve this matter peacefully. Arriving here, he saw these experts, very clear that if they were to resort to force, they had no hope of winning! A sly smile appeared on Gao Yuan's face, "What if I want all the assets of your Situ family?" Situ Hanlin's face changed drastically, and after a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll give it to you!" "Hmm?" Gao Yuan was stunned, and so were the others. The Situ family was one of the four major families in the Central Sea, with assets worth billions! He was willing to give up all his family's assets just to save thirty-two Black Dragon Army slaves? But in the next moment, Gao Yuan's face returned to a sinister smile, "It's a pity, I won't sell. As I said before, whoever kills Ye Chengfeng, these Black Dragon Army slaves will belong to them!" "And, since your Situ family is here, don't even think about leaving. If I kill you, your Situ family's assets will be mine!" Situ Hanlin's face turned pale with anger. He never expected Gao Yuan to go to such lengths just to kill Ye Chengfeng! It seems there's no way out today! Situ Hanlin decided to implement another plan! "Charge, seize them!" After seizing the people, they would take turns covering each other's retreat. The elite fighters Situ Hanlin had brought this time may not be able to defeat them, but they could definitely seize the people and leave! More than seventy people charged out like fierce tigers! "Haha, you think you can seize them? Everyone, capture them!" Gao Yuan sneered, giving the order coldly. Numerous black-clothed figures immediately rushed forward, engaging in battle with the elite fighters from the Situ family. However, in just a moment, all of the Situ family's elite fighters were defeated! "How is this possible!" Situ Hanlin's eyes filled with despair! He never expected that all the carefully selected elite fighters would be defeated! It's over! He might lose his life here! Ye Chengfeng probably wouldn't survive either. Even if he could defeat Gao Yuan's subordinates at the wedding, even if his strength was extraordinary, there were three thousand people here! Not to mention that his body hadn't fully recovered! How could he resist? Gao Yuan smirked, his face full of coldness. Was the Situ family really worthy of challenging him? The other big shots from the underground world were equally mocking. Today, they had brought the cream of the crop, how could a mere businessman from the Situ family compete with them? In the crowd, only Ye Chengfeng remained impassive, moving forward slowly. He gazed at the thirty-two Black Dragon soldiers, his demeanor composed but the murderous intent in his eyes growing more intense, like a volcano on the verge of eruption! His visage stayed unchanged, but beneath the surface of every pore, the iron-blooded terrifying aura seemed uncontrollable, poised to unleash destruction! After years of battling alone, his comrades who had fought alongside him were now in such a pitiful state!
