Chapter 279 – Meng Tianxuan: What? That Kid Is the Young Gang Leader of the Exploding Heavens Gang?

“This is bad, what should I do?”

High in the sky, countless thoughts raced through Liu Wushuang’s mind.

If Meng Tianxuan took him back,

he would have no chance of returning to Exploding Heavens Gang, and might even have his cultivation destroyed.

His fate would be utterly miserable.

But the gap between Supreme experts was simply too vast.

Meng Tianxuan could crush him with one hand. This battle was practically decided, and continuing to fight offered no chance of counterattack.

He couldn’t even delay the outcome.

For the Young Gang Leader and the future, the only thing he could do now was probably perish together with his enemy…

So be it!

“Even if I die, I won’t let him take me back!”

Having made up his mind,

Liu Wushuang hesitated no longer. Glaring at Meng Tianxuan, he roared angrily:

“Don’t think just because you’re in the Celestial Venerable Realm you’re superior to me, Meng Tianxuan! At worst, I’ll fight you to the death today!”

As his voice fell,

Boom!

A terrifying aura spread in all directions!

Star Power scattered as Liu Wushuang’s hair and beard floated wildly, surrounded by horned dragon-like furious thunder.

“Hmm? What’s this?”

Seeing this, Meng Tianxuan’s expression changed dramatically, and he immediately retreated half a step.

“Self-destruction?”

As the familiar aura entered his perception, Meng Tianxuan’s heart pounded wildly. He couldn’t remember when Liu Wushuang had learned self-destruction?

He focused his gaze intently.

But soon, he noticed something unusual.

Wait…

That’s not right!

“The Star Power is erupting from the dantian area, different from the Exploding Heavens Gang members.”

Having seen through it, Meng Tianxuan shouted sharply, “Liu Wushuang, have you gone mad?! Even if you self-destruct, you can’t kill me! Is this really worth it?”

“Heh, what do you know?”

Blood trickled from the corner of Liu Wushuang’s mouth opposite him. “Since you’re forcing me today, let’s all abandon this game! I’d rather die than go back with you!”

“Fine, you’ve got guts.”

Hearing this, Meng Tianxuan laughed in anger. “I never saw you so principled before, but now you’ve grown a backbone. Then I’ll grant your wish and watch you self-destruct with my own eyes!”

Boom! Rumble!

Thunderous sounds erupted from within Liu Wushuang’s body, a pained expression appearing on his face. He had already begun self-destruction, seemingly about to activate it completely in the next moment.

But at this critical juncture,

Suddenly!

“Arrow God, wait!!”

A voice came through, forcefully cutting into the battlefield!

“Hmm?!”

The powerful voice reverberated in his ears. Liu Wushuang’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately looked toward the source of the voice, feeling somewhat surprised and delighted.

After all,

he had only just inherited the title “Arrow God.” Besides Qin Yang, no one else in the outside world knew about it.

Yet that person had clearly called out the title.

Without a doubt!

Who else could it be?

It must be an elder from Exploding Heavens Gang coming to rescue him!

As these thoughts flashed through his mind,

the starlight around Liu Wushuang dimmed slightly. Both he and Meng Tianxuan turned simultaneously to look in the direction of the voice.

Not far away,

a Black-Robed Man was rushing toward them.

He carried a dark giant ruler on his back, nearly as tall as a person. His robes fluttered, his aura powerful, his hair flowing and swaying.

“Who are you?!”

Meng Tianxuan was greatly alarmed at the sight, demanding in a deep voice while instinctively taking another step back, his face as grave as still water.

The Black-Robed Man before him had a restrained aura, making it impossible to detect any Star Power fluctuations. In this uncertain situation, the unknown was the most terrifying scenario!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Soon,

the Black-Robed Man arrived, standing several zhang away from Meng Tianxuan and Liu Wushuang. He cupped his hands in greeting and announced his name.”I am the Flame King of the Exploding Heavens Gang!”

“Xiao Yan!!”

As the words fell.

“Hmm?”

Meng Tianxuan froze in place upon hearing the title, feeling his scalp tingle.

Another new Supreme?!

Who is Xiao Yan?

He had no recollection of this person since ascending to Supreme status himself.

Though unfamiliar, the prefix “Exploding Heavens Gang” was something he would never forget even in death, causing an itching sting beneath his skin.

The injuries from the previous consecutive bombardments began acting up again…

“Just how many Supremes does this Exploding Heavens Gang have?”

Meng Tianxuan massaged his temples and said with bitter regret, looking up at Xiao Yan floating in the air, “What brings your Exploding Heavens Gang here? This Alliance Lord hasn’t offended you, has he?”

“Hmph.”

Xiao Yan snorted coldly, paying little attention as he drifted slowly before Liu Wushuang, examining Meng Tianxuan’s injuries up and down: “Supreme Alliance Leader, after our last great battle, wasn’t the explosion enough for you? You dare come to Jianghai City to cause trouble again?”

“……”

Meng Tianxuan’s expression changed abruptly:

“Let’s not dwell on the past. Today, this Alliance Lord is here to deal with my own traitor. What does that have to do with your Exploding Heavens Gang?”

As he spoke, he stared at Liu Wushuang:

“Could it be that you want to meddle in this too?”

As the words fell.

Xiao Yan shook his head instead, glancing at Liu Wushuang beside him with a faint smile, “Will you tell him yourself, or shall I?”

“Senior, it would be better if you do.”

Liu Wushuang bowed respectfully: “Given the current situation, anything I say would fall on deaf ears with the Alliance Lord. Your words would carry far more weight.”

“Very well, then I shall speak.”

Xiao Yan stepped forward, facing Meng Tianxuan directly, then pointed his thumb back at Liu Wushuang behind him, declaring loudly: “Supreme Alliance Leader, Liu Wushuang has joined our Exploding Heavens Gang! If you try to deal with him today, you’re making an enemy of our Exploding Heavens Gang.”

“If you insist on proceeding and starting a war with the Exploding Heavens Gang, we’re ready to fight to the end!”

As the words fell.

“What?!”

Meng Tianxuan’s expression changed again, his mind going blank for a moment before shock and fury overwhelmed him upon realization, “Liu Wushuang joined your Exploding Heavens Gang?”

After searching for so long.

So the Exploding Heavens Gang had poached from my Supreme Alliance?

“Correct! I have abandoned my past with the Supreme Alliance and inherited the title of Jianghai Arrow God…” At this moment, Liu Wushuang proudly puffed out his chest and stepped forward.

“From now on, Meng Tianxuan, you and I are strangers. What worthless Supreme Alliance? This Arrow God wants no part of it!! The Exploding Heavens Gang is the only true path to heaven!”

“You!”

Meng Tianxuan’s expression drastically changed upon hearing this.

The Supreme Alliance was something he had personally inherited, and now Liu Wushuang’s slander against the alliance was no different from cursing him to his face!

But just as Meng Tianxuan was about to rebuke him.

He suddenly frowned as if remembering something, withdrew his pointing finger, and tempered his anger…

After all, his purpose in coming to Jianghai City this time.

Was to inform the Exploding Heavens Gang about the secrets of the Blood Spirit Formation.

If he angered Xiao Yan now, it would only create obstacles for future operations, making the loss outweigh the gain.

“The grand plan is not yet complete, I must endure…”

Thinking this, Meng Tianxuan swallowed his pride, cleared his throat and said: “In that case, regarding Liu Wushuang’s withdrawal from the alliance…”

“What about it?”Xiao Yan frowned slightly upon hearing this and immediately interrupted him, “Are you still dwelling on this matter? Didn’t you hear what I just said?”

“Misunderstanding, let me finish…”

At this point, Meng Tianxuan quickly waved his hands, “Since Liu Wushuang is now a member of your Exploding Heavens Gang, the matter of withdrawing from the alliance is settled and won’t be pursued… This Alliance Lord was merely concerned earlier that he had joined the Beast God Sect, hoping he would find his way back from going astray.”

“……”

“……”

As his words fell.

The air suddenly grew still.

The citizens watching the situation from below were left speechless.

The Supreme Alliance Leader’s sudden change in attitude had completely exceeded everyone’s expectations.

It could truly be described as flipping sides faster than turning a page!

Inside the Soaring Ascent Building office, Elder Li breathed a sigh of relief: “As expected, only the seniors from the Exploding Heavens Gang could handle this.”

“What Supreme Alliance Leader? He’s nothing special compared to our Exploding Heavens Gang.”

Li Zixuan also nodded excitedly, “It seems the previous self-destruction bombing really scared him. They probably still have psychological trauma from it.”

……….

High above.

The cold wind howled fiercely.

Xiao Yan and Liu Wushuang looked at each other, exchanging glances.

“Liu Wushuang, was this your former Alliance Leader?”

Xiao Yan shook his head, “He changes his stance faster than flipping a book.”

“I…”

Liu Wushuang’s expression turned awkward, recalling Meng Tianxuan’s words, he too felt speechless.

To let it go just like that.

This guy has no backbone at all!

So embarrassing!

“Alright, everyone…”

Seeing the atmosphere ease, Meng Tianxuan seized the opportunity to get to the main point: “Now that the misunderstanding is resolved and Liu Wushuang belongs to the Exploding Heavens Gang, could you hear this Alliance Lord’s request?”

“Request?”

Xiao Yan said coldly, “What else do you want?”

Beside him, Liu Wushuang also looked serious, warily watching Meng Tianxuan’s movements. Given the Alliance Leader’s hypocritical nature, he might well have other intentions.

“Both of you, please remain calm.”

Meng Tianxuan spoke slowly, turning his head to look at the distant buildings:

“I need to meet with your Gang Leader. This concerns the lives of thousands of citizens in Jianghai City. The situation is critical… I must speak with him immediately, otherwise delaying will lead to major trouble.”

“Looking for the Gang Leader? Concerning the people’s safety?”

Xiao Yan hesitated upon hearing this, pondering for a moment before remaining cautious,

“What do you want with the Gang Leader?”

“If you have any ill intentions, I advise you to give up now. With your current strength, you pose no threat to him whatsoever.”

As his words ended.

“Misunderstanding! I truly mean no harm.”

Meng Tianxuan cupped his hands again, lowering his posture as much as possible, “I have important matters to discuss with the Exploding Heavens Gang Leader. They involve high-level secrets that you cannot decide.”

“……”

Seeing this, Xiao Yan pondered for a moment.

He felt somewhat swayed.

Judging by Meng Tianxuan’s sincere demeanor, it seemed he genuinely had important matters to discuss.

“Might as well check his intentions first!”

Thinking this.

Xiao Yan nodded calmly:

“Currently, the Gang Leader is in closed-door cultivation at a critical moment and has no time to deal with worldly affairs. All matters of our Exploding Heavens Gang are now fully managed by the Young Gang Leader… If you’re in a hurry, you can discuss it with him first.”

“Young Gang Leader?”

Meng Tianxuan frowned, “Who is that? Could you introduce me?”Now the key was to inform the Exploding Heavens Gang about the Blood Spirit Formation. No matter who this Young Gang Leader was, as long as the message could be delivered, his mission to Jianghai would be considered accomplished.

“You know this person.”

At that moment.

Liu Wushuang chimed in, glancing at Meng Tianxuan with a half-smile as he slowly enunciated each word:

“It’s Qin Yang—the one you were targeting earlier!”

“???”

“Qin Yang?!”

Hearing this, Meng Tianxuan froze in shock, his heart sinking.

That kid?

He’s actually the Young Gang Leader of the Exploding Heavens Gang?
