Leader Lu glanced at Lin Changqing without batting an eyelid. He walked to the manager and said anxiously, “Manager, two gang members are in trouble in the city. I need to mobilize a few members who are good at tracking to take a look at the scene!”

“I already know about this. You can go take a look at that place during the day. Don’t send anyone near it at night!” As the manager spoke, he took out a wooden token and wrote something on it before throwing it to the leader. “Go and see who’s free. Get them to help investigate and give our brothers an explanation!”

Leader Lu looked back at Lin Changqing and Little Tiger, who was beside him, and asked, “Is this dog yours? It looks quite smart. It can come with us to the scene to help!”

Leader Lu showed him the wooden token that the manager had just given him. Lin Changqing knew that it was a temporary transfer order from the gang. He could transfer people within a certain range to listen to orders.

“Changqing, if you have nothing to do, go and help!” The manager said to Lin Changqing without any doubt.

“Yes!” Lin Changqing lowered his head and agreed.

“Manager, we’ll do our work first! Come with me!” Leader Lu bade farewell to the manager and called out to Lin Changqing before leaving.

Lin Changqing followed behind Leader Lu and a few gang members. Leader Lu and the gang members ignored him.

Leader Lu took the temporary transfer order and went to look for two gang members who were good at tracking. He also called for some ordinary gang members. There were more than ten people in a group, and they all had short knives on them. They rushed along the path Lin Changqing had come from.

When the pedestrians on the road saw them, they all hid far away.

As Lin Changqing had expected, their destination was indeed the place where he had dumped the “corpses” at midnight. Coming here again, as it was daytime and there were many people, the ominous place deep in the alley that looked like a desolate ruin did not look as terrifying as at night.

However, Lin Changqing, who had the talent [Powerful Perception], could still vaguely sense the terrifying danger in the dark.

There was already a group of gang members waiting for Leader Lu. A leader in the gang could manage a group of gang members regularly. The number of people ranged from a few to dozens. This depended on the leader’s own ability.

Leader Lu was obviously not weak. There were more than twenty gang members gathered here. On the ground beside the waiting gang members, Lin Changqing saw two corpses, one tall and one short. The corpses were beyond recognition.

This was the first time Lin Changqing had seen such a terrifying scene with his own eyes. The two of them seemed to have their chests and abdomens emptied, and their skin and muscles seemed to have been eaten by something. They were badly mutilated.

This scene made him feel a little uncomfortable, but he quickly adapted.

“No one will come to this place at night. The two of them definitely didn’t walk over on their own! Everyone’s mission is to find clues and see if we can find out who killed our two brothers! Let’s split up now! Gather here at noon!”

Leader Lu didn’t waste any time and immediately gave the order to take action. Other than the two gang members who were good at tracking and Lin Changqing, the rest of the gang members here were all subordinates of Leader Lu. They were familiar with each other and had a clear division of labor. Soon, they all went about their own duties.

“The two of you are experts in tracking. I won’t give you blind instructions. You can move freely!”

Leader Lu sent the two gang members who were good at tracking away. Now, Lin Changqing was the only one left, and he had yet to assign a mission. This made him feel that something was wrong.

“Take the dog and follow me inside to see if we can find the culprit who hurt them!” Leader Lu said to Lin Changqing without batting an eyelid.

“Yes, Leader Lu!”

Lin Changqing tightened his grip on Little Bamboo in his hand and followed behind Leader Lu with Little Tiger. They walked deeper into the alley.

It was not strange for the other gang members to see this scene. Leader Lu was a martial artist who had inherited the martial arts of the gang. He would not be in any danger if he walked around this place in broad daylight.

Leader Lu walked and looked around. He led Lin Changqing and Little Tiger into the depths of the desolate ruins. There were ruins and all kinds of strange plants everywhere.

Lin Changqing activated his perception and discovered many unknown things along the way. Perhaps it was because it was daytime, but those things didn’t move.

Little Tiger, who was more vigilant, had been warning Lin Changqing through the consciousness connection, but the extremely smart Little Tiger had been pretending to be an ordinary dog and following Lin Changqing.

Leader Lu seemed to have confirmed that there was no one else around. He stopped, turned around, and looked at Lin Changqing with a sharp gaze. “I didn’t expect you to appear in front of me safe and sound today! And my two brothers fell in this place! Tell me! Did you have a fortuitous encounter, or did Elder Zhao give you something extraordinary?”

Leader Lu went straight to the point and tore off his disguise.

“Leader Lu, what are you talking about? I don’t understand at all!” Lin Changqing tried his best to imitate his predecessor and pretended not to know anything.

“You really don’t understand? Alright, let me take your pulse and you’ll understand!”

Leader Lu’s actions were clean and nimble. He didn’t care if Lin Changqing was telling the truth or not. He took a few steps forward and approached Lin Changqing. He reached out like an eagle’s claw and grabbed Lin Changqing’s wrist.

Lin Changqing couldn’t judge the difference between his strength and Leader Lu, but he definitely couldn’t be caught. He raised the [Bamboo Staff] in his hand and struck. Little Bamboo’s talent, [Stick Strike], was activated. The [Bamboo Staff] hit Leader Lu at an unbelievable angle.

This was the sure hit effect of [Stick Strike]!

Unfortunately, the knockout effect of [Stick Strike] did not appear. As a martial artist, Leader Lu did not suffer much damage from this bamboo cane. On the other hand, the [Bamboo Staff] was grabbed by Leader Lu. Lin Changqing felt a strong force and let go of the [Bamboo Staff] in his hand.

“Your staff technique is not bad! However, using a bamboo stick to hit someone, do you think this is child’s play?” As he spoke, he threw the [Bamboo Staff] behind him.

Leader Lu attacked Lin Changqing again. Lin Changqing pulled out his short knife, and Little Tiger beside him also rushed forward and bit Leader Lu’s leg.

Leader Lu changed his move and kicked Little Tiger to the ground. Even if Little Tiger had the [Fierce Dog] talent that increased his combat strength, he was still no match for Leader Lu who was a martial artist.

Lin Changqing seized the opportunity and used his predecessor’s combat experience and current physical fitness to slash at Leader Lu with the short knife in his hand quickly and ruthlessly.

Smack!

Leader Lu’s speed was even faster. He dodged to the side and dodged Lin Changqing’s short knife before slapping Lin Changqing’s abdomen. The intense pain made Lin Changqing involuntarily bend over. Leader Lu bent his fingers into claws and grabbed at Lin Changqing’s neck.

Little Tiger, who had flipped over, charged forward again.

Smack!

Plop!

The God of Luck descended once again.

Under the cover of Lin Changqing and Little Tiger, the autonomous [Bamboo Staff], Little Bamboo, hit the back of the head of Leader Lu, successfully triggering the stun effect of the talent [Stick Strike].

Leader Lu fell to the ground, but he was not weak and did not faint completely. Without any hesitation, Lin Changqing bent down and cut off the main artery in Leader Lu’s neck.
