19: Chapter 19: Enough fun, cripple Zheng Tu, force him to reveal the mastermind.

Before Butcher Zheng's voice even faded, Gu Han made a noise in the northwest corner.

"Crack!"

Butcher Zheng and the others turned their heads in unison, looking toward the direction of the sound.

They saw a dark shadow flash under the moonlight.

"That Little Beast is over there!"

Butcher Zheng roared.

"Everyone, get him!"

"Take down that Little Beast!"

Hearing the order, the crowd rushed over in a swarm.

When they reached the northwest corner, they only saw a broken tree branch.

In the instant they were dazed, the sound of a Sharp Weapon cutting through the air suddenly came from behind them.

Gu Han was holding the blade of a Fierce Tiger Gang Disciple he had killed earlier.

Whoosh!

A steel blade whistled through the air, piercing the chest of the gang member at the very back.

The man looked down at the blade tip protruding from his chest and collapsed to the ground with a face full of disbelief.

"The fourth one."

Gu Han's voice came from the shadows.

"You're too slow."

The remaining eight turned around in terror, only to see Gu Han standing on the courtyard wall.

At some point, another steel blade had appeared in his hand.

"Playing tricks!"

Butcher Zheng roared.

"Charge together! Hack this Little Beast to death!"

The remaining eight lackeys howled and rushed forward.

Gu Han suddenly disappeared from the top of the wall.

A second later, a dark shadow descended from the sky, the blade's light sweeping across like a bolt of silk.

Slash!

Two heads flew into the air, blood splashing onto the faces of the remaining five.

"The fifth and sixth."

Gu Han stepped back, dodging three steel blades hacking toward him.

Then, he kicked off the ground with his left foot and lunged back.

Simultaneously, he flicked his blade in a backhand strike, and another person knelt on the ground, clutching his sliced-open belly.

"The seventh."

A sharp-featured Disciple suddenly launched a sneak attack from the side, his blade aimed straight for Gu Han's neck.

Without even turning his head, Gu Han's left hand darted out like a venomous snake, accurately grabbing the opponent's wrist.

"Crack!"

The crisp sound of a shattering wrist bone echoed through the entire courtyard.

Just as the sharp-featured Disciple was about to scream, Gu Han's hands were quick and his eyes sharp; he thrust the blade into the man's mouth, the tip emerging from the back of his head.

"The eighth!"

Gu Han flicked the blood foam off his blade and looked at Butcher Zheng with a cold sneer.

At this moment, only Butcher Zheng remained in the courtyard.

The fat on Butcher Zheng's face trembled violently, his expression grim, and the rage in his eyes seemed ready to burn Gu Han to death.

"Little Beast, you've got some skill."

"To actually be able to kill my men."

Suddenly, Butcher Zheng let out a beast-like roar.

"Little Beast, your Grandpa wants you dead!"

He suddenly raised his hands, his entire body instantly adopting a posture like a tiger pouncing on its prey.

Butcher Zheng's muscles suddenly bulged, his clothes shredding inch by inch to reveal a round, rolling belly.

His eyes gleamed with a beastly ferocity, like a human-shaped Vicious Beast.

"Tiger Descending the Mountain!"

Gu Han just watched from the side.

At this moment, he also wanted to see what kind of ultimate move this Butcher Zheng could pull off to give him a satisfying fight.

Yes, Gu Han's fighting spirit was also burning at this moment.

He wanted to find an enemy who could give him a good fight but posed no real threat to practice his skills.

Butcher Zheng happened to fit the bill.

The corners of Gu Han's mouth curled into an excited arc, and his long blade drew a silver curve under the moonlight.

"Hall Master, this little bit of Aura isn't going to threaten anyone!"

Seeing Gu Han's mocking words and expression, Butcher Zheng stopped building up and struck out in a rage.

"Die!"

He kicked off with both legs, his obese body actually shooting forward like a cannonball.

Wherever he passed, deep footprints were left on the ground.

Looking at Butcher Zheng's appearance, Gu Han couldn't help but think of the image of a sow taking flight.

"Hall Master, you're a sow rooting for food, not a Tiger Descending the Mountain!"

Hearing Gu Han's mockery, Butcher Zheng's face turned even grimmer.

In his entire life, he hated it most when people said he looked like a pig.

He exerted a bit more force and charged toward Gu Han to kill him.

Just as he neared Gu Han, Gu Han sidestepped to dodge.

Gu Han also kicked Butcher Zheng's buttocks.

Carried by his own momentum and unable to stop, he faceplanted onto the ground.

"Hall Master Zheng, this move of yours should be called Sow Pouncing on Food."

"Where is there any sign of a Tiger Descending the Mountain?"

Butcher Zheng's eyes were bloodshot, and his fatty flesh trembled with rage as he let out a roar that didn't sound human.

"Little Beast, I'm going to tear you to pieces!"

Gu Han smiled even more brightly, twirling his long blade into a beautiful flower.

"Come on!"

"Let me see the skills of the Black Tiger Hall Master."

Boom!

Butcher Zheng smashed both fists into the ground, actually making the entire courtyard tremble.

Amidst flying gravel, his massive body rose into the air, pouncing toward Gu Han like a mountain of meat crushing down.

"Now that's more like it!"

A playful glint flashed in Gu Han's eyes as he continued to mock him.

"Hall Master Zheng, this Sow Crushing Down move is not bad."

Slap!

A loud slap landed on Butcher Zheng's face, making his fat ripple in waves.

Butcher Zheng was sent flying sideways by the force.

"Hall Master Zheng, are you capable or not?"

"How is it you haven't even managed to touch my clothes?"

Butcher Zheng's face had already swollen into a pig's head, and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

He panted heavily, the ferocity in his eyes undiminished.

"Little Beast, you're looking for death!"

Gu Han suddenly pulled back his smile, his gaze turning cold.

"I'm done playing."

Before his voice faded, his figure flashed behind Butcher Zheng like a ghost, striking a palm against a major acupoint on his spine!

"Crack!"

The spine instantly snapped into several pieces, and Butcher Zheng slumped to the ground like a pile of mud.

"You... what did you do to me?"

Butcher Zheng discovered in terror that he was completely unable to move!

He panicked.

Gu Han crouched down and patted Butcher Zheng's fatty face with the back of his blade.

"Now, I ask, you answer."

"If your answers satisfy me, I might not kill you."

"Otherwise, I will slice off your fat, piece by piece."

"And at the same time, I won't let you die."

"Finally, I'll let you watch your own internal organs."

Gu Han's blade tip lightly traced across Butcher Zheng's neck, drawing a thin line of blood.

"First question..."

Gu Han suddenly lowered his voice.

"Who sent you to kill me?"

Butcher Zheng's eyes darted around.

"No... no one put me up to it!"

"It's about Lai Three..."

"Crack!"

Gu Han crushed his left wrist bone with a stomp.

Aaaah!

Butcher Zheng's scream was exceptionally chilling in the night sky.

Gu Han slowly and methodically rotated his ankle.

"My patience is limited. I'll count to three. If I don't get an answer, you can say goodbye to your other hand."

"One..."

"It's Ma Yong!"

"He wanted your head to offer as a sacrifice to his brother-in-law, Li Yi."

Butcher Zheng was so terrified by Gu Han that his fat trembled all over.

However, he was feeling ruthless inside.

Little Beast, once I escape, I will definitely repay tonight's torture a hundredfold.

If Gu Han could hear his inner thoughts, he would surely burst out laughing.

Gu Han had no intention of letting him go in the first place.

Gu Han's policy was that all enemies before him must be killed.

After hearing Butcher Zheng's answer, the cold light in Gu Han's eyes surged.

"Interesting."

A cruel arc curled at the corner of Gu Han's mouth.

Knowing it was Ma Yong's doing, Gu Han wasn't afraid.

All he thought about was how to kill Ma Yong safely without being suspected.

"Second question: who else is involved?"

Gu Han's blade tip pressed against Butcher Zheng's throat.

"There's also Zhang Tian and Li Linger."

"Zhang Tian?"

"And who is Li Linger?"

"How did these two suddenly appear out of nowhere?"

Gu Han was puzzled.

"Tell me about Zhang Tian and Li Linger."
