12: Chapter 12 Revenge Should Not Be Waited Until the Next Day

Wang Ergou's home was located in the East District of the Slums!

This was a simple courtyard house.

Although it wasn't the home of a wealthy family, it was still much better than the impoverished households built from mud bricks.

Over a decade ago, Wang Ergou had also joined the Fengyun Martial Arts Hall to practice martial arts!

Unfortunately, because his aptitude was poor, he couldn't step into the Spirit Gathering Realm even after spending half a year!

In the end, with the cultivation of a Half-step Martial Artist, he was expelled from the Fengyun Martial Arts Hall.

After leaving the martial arts hall, Wang Ergou joined the Black Tiger Gang.

Later, he gradually worked his way up to the position of a small leader.

Over these years, he had been helping the Black Tiger Gang collect various harsh taxes in this part of the Slums, acting like a local tyrant, just like a local emperor here.

Lin Feng was like a ghost in the night, quietly approaching the courtyard!

Immediately, he nimbly climbed up the large tree outside the courtyard.

Standing on a thick branch, he looked into the courtyard!

He saw that the courtyard was brightly lit.

Wang Ergou was in the simple main hall, constantly drinking and toasting with four thugs.

On the dilapidated wooden table with a missing corner, there were many delicacies laid out.

Bursts of rich wine and meat aromas drifted in the air, continuously wafting into Lin Feng's nostrils.

"Haha, brothers, drink!"

Wang Ergou, with misty, drunken eyes, raised his wine glass and laughed, "Today was truly satisfying. I easily obtained two hundred taels of silver from Lin Feng."

"Haha, that's right. Brother Ergou is still the smart one; just by casually setting a trap, we got two hundred taels!"

"That brat Lin Yi is also honest. Once we intimidated him, he completely lost his composure and could only obediently let us slaughter him, borrowing money at the casino to gamble!"

Just then, one of the thugs put down his wine glass and looked at Wang Ergou, "Brother Ergou, although we got two hundred taels today, you were also beaten by that brat Lin Feng. Are we just going to let it go like this?"

"Hmph, how could we just let it go?" Wang Ergou snorted coldly, slammed his wine glass heavily onto the table, a glint of extremely vicious light flashing in his eyes, and said coldly, "Regardless of anything else, I, Wang Ergou, am the local emperor of this area. Now that I've been bullied by a wet-behind-the-ears kid, how could I possibly swallow this anger?"

"Then Brother Ergou, how do you plan to take revenge on him?" the thug asked!

Wang Ergou thought for a moment and said coldly, "Judging by Lin Feng's strike today, he should be like me, having also stepped into the Half-step Martial Artist Realm. Therefore, to deal with him, I need to find reinforcements!"

"Then who should we find to deal with him?" the thug asked, getting to the bottom of it.

"My cousin!" Wang Ergou sneered, "My cousin, Hall Master Wang Biao, is a true Martial Artist. Once he makes a move, Lin Feng will be unable to escape his fate!"

"But Brother Biao is a Hall Master; will he make a move for a mere Lin Feng?" another thug asked.

"Hehe, of course he will!" Wang Ergou gave a sinister smile and said loudly, "As long as I tell him that Lin Feng has earned a lot of money in the city recently, do you think Brother Biao won't be tempted?"

"Haha, Brother Ergou is indeed smart. This move of borrowing a knife to kill is played very skillfully!"

"That's right, Brother Biao loves money like his life. Once he hears this news, he will definitely not be able to resist making a move!"

"Haha, Brother Ergou, I have a favor to ask of you, how about it?" At this moment, a thug with a dark complexion and an ugly appearance looked at Wang Ergou!

"Oh? What is it?"

"Brother Ergou, after Lin Feng is killed, can you kidnap his younger sister, Lin Fang, and let me play with her?" the ugly thug said, his eyes filled with lechery.

"What? Do you have your eyes on Lin Fang?" Wang Ergou asked with a smile!

"Yeah, I'm already in my twenties and still a virgin. I also want to taste a woman!" the ugly thug licked his lips and replied with an evil smile!

"Haha, no problem. After killing Lin Feng, I will wipe out Foster Father Lin Zhenshan's family. As for Lin Fang, I'll give her to you as a wife. By then, you can play with her however you want!" Wang Ergou slapped the table and said loudly!

"Haha, thank you, Brother Ergou! Let me toast you!" The ugly thug was overjoyed and began to enthusiastically pour wine.

Hearing the clamorous discussion of Wang Ergou and the others, Lin Feng's face was as dark as water, and the murderous intent in his eyes surged crazily.

These beasts were truly not worth pitying even in death; they actually set their sights on his younger sister, Lin Fang.

You have to know, Lin Fang was only fourteen years old!

If he hadn't joined the Jidao Martial Arts Hall and become a Half-step Martial Artist!

If he were still the ordinary youth with no cultivation to rely on, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Not only would he die, but his foster parents' family would also be wiped out by them!

And his poor younger sister, Lin Fang, would have suffered the humiliation of that ugly thug...

Although he wished he could rush out immediately and slice Wang Ergou and the others into a thousand pieces!

Lin Feng still took a deep breath and suppressed the killing intent in his heart!

He was like a patient hunter, quietly waiting for the best moment to kill.

Because among the five people in the courtyard, besides Wang Ergou being a Half-step Martial Artist, the other four also knew a little bit of martial arts.

Once it turned into a hard confrontation, it would definitely cause a big commotion.

And this courtyard was not far from the pier in the east!

There, there were also experts from the Black Tiger Gang stationed!

If things blew up and the Martial Artists of the Black Tiger Gang came upon hearing the news, Lin Feng wouldn't be able to stop them.

Therefore, he could not be impatient now!

He would wait until they were dead drunk before doing anything.

Time passed quietly!

In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed.

"Ah! Drink, keep drinking..."

"Er... Brother Ergou, we're out of wine."

"Damn it, how can we be out of wine? I... I'll go look for some..." Wang Ergou stood up and stumbled toward the room next door.

After entering the room, Wang Ergou rummaged around for a while, finally unable to resist the surge of drunkenness, and threw himself onto the big bed, falling fast asleep.

Soon, snoring erupted, sounding like thunder.

After a while, the four thugs in the main hall also fell asleep one after another, slumped over the table.

The entire courtyard instantly became silent.

Only the sound of snoring, accompanied by the chirping of insects outside the courtyard, rose and fell.

"Time's up!" A cold glint flashed in Lin Feng's eyes as he leaped from the tree branch and landed on the courtyard wall, which was about the height of a person!

Then, he landed lightly in the courtyard and walked toward the main hall.

The door was ajar and not closed tightly!

Lin Feng gently pushed the door open and entered.

He casually took out a gleaming dagger from his pocket.

He walked slowly toward the four thugs slumped over the table!

"Hmm... keep drinking..." Just then, one of the thugs suddenly mumbled in his sleep!

Lin Feng paused his steps!

After waiting for a while, seeing that the thug made no further movement!

Lin Feng quickly stepped forward, holding the dagger, and struck repeatedly!

Crack!

The crisp sound of throat-slitting quietly echoed in the hall.

The four thugs quietly met the King of Hell in their sleep!

Immediately, Lin Feng quickly went to the room next door.

He found Wang Ergou lying there sprawled out, fast asleep.

Swish...

Lin Feng stepped forward quickly, and the dagger in his hand slashed toward Wang Ergou's throat like lightning.

However!

Just as the dagger was about to reach its target, Wang Ergou's tightly closed eyes suddenly snapped open.

"Not good!" Relying on his instinct as a Half-step Martial Artist, Wang Ergou quickly performed a lazy donkey roll, narrowly rolling to the side, avoiding that Throat Slitter strike.

Borrowing the light seeping in from the main hall, he saw Lin Feng dressed in black and roared, "Who are you, Your Excellency? Why do you want to kill me?"

"You deserve to die!" Lin Feng snorted coldly!

Immediately, the dagger in his hand thrust out like lightning again, striking Wang Ergou squarely in the chest.

"Ah!" Wang Ergou let out a scream like a slaughtered pig and was about to scramble off the bed to escape toward the window!

However!

Just then, a flash of white light appeared before his eyes; the dagger in Lin Feng's hand had transformed into an agile Dragon, slashing his throat.

Blood gushed out, staining the cotton on the bed red...

Wang Ergou lifted his hand with difficulty, clutching his throat tightly, and fell backward, "You... are you Lin Feng?"

"It is your grandfather, me!" A cold glint flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, and he kicked out fiercely!

With a bang!

Wang Ergou's head instantly exploded like a rotten watermelon.

After killing Wang Ergou, Lin Feng quickly searched the room!

He didn't miss a single corner.

Finally, he found a heavy wooden box from the compartment under the wooden bed!

Upon opening it, Lin Feng couldn't help but be overjoyed.
