Chapter 284: Attack on the Amphibian Gang
Translator: Tim Editor: Fish Creek
“Indeed, we have a common enemy, and besides him, no one else can help our Qiao family. Of course, we can sit here and wait. Although we can’t hand this tape to the police, we can find General Han Zaixin. He can help us, and he definitely wouldn’t let this go. Now, leave Beijing and find Ye Mo immediately. You don’t need to worry about things here,” Qiao Xin said.
…
At the Sharp Corner sea area, the Amphibian Gang held absolute authority. No one dared to oppose them. Located at the border and recently having left Nan Qing, they had become even stronger.
With Nan Qing unable to govern itself, the Amphibian Gang completely controlled border commerce.
When Ye Mo arrived at Sharp Corner, the gang leader, Wang Jiu, was in a murderous rage. Wang Jiu had killed the previous leader, Guo Quan, six months ago and declared independence from Nan Qing. Given Nan Qing’s state, they didn’t even retaliate. As a result, the Amphibian Gang grew steadily, with Wang Jiu reigning supreme.
Beside Wang Jiu was an exceptionally busty woman, rubbing her eyes and weeping.
“No matter who killed Shi Wei, I will make him pay. I will annihilate his entire family and flay him alive, feeding his skin to dogs,” Wang Jiu roared at the woman.
He breathed heavily, slammed a gun on the table, and said, “Investigate! Even if it’s the god of heaven, I won’t let him go. Chen Er, most of our brothers are here; bring some men to Flowing Snake immediately…”
Fifty to sixty men filled the hall. In the center, a man was nailed to a wooden block; his ligaments secured with nails. His head drooped; it was unclear whether he was alive or dead.
Upon arriving at Sharp Corner, Ye Mo was shocked by the Amphibian Gang’s headquarters. It resembled a five-star hotel, lavishly decorated. In a few years, the gang could easily establish a business district.
Bang! Ye Mo kicked open the door to the Amphibian Gang’s largest meeting room. Seeing Wang Jiu, who hadn’t yet reacted, Ye Mo sneered, “You’re the leader of the Amphibian Gang? You needn’t search for me; I’ve already arrived.”
Wang Jiu was momentarily stunned, then leaped up. “How dare you! You killed Shi Wei? You dare show your face! Don’t kill him; capture him first. I’ll show him who’s boss here.”
Before Wang Jiu finished, several heavily tattooed men charged forward. Wang Jiu looked coldly at Ye Mo and sneered, “You’ve learned a few kung fu moves and think you can accomplish something? I’ll teach you a lesson today and show you what it’s like to be nailed to wood. Who’s the guard? How dare he let him…”
Wang Jiu stopped abruptly, his mouth agape in shock. The four men who charged had been decapitated.
“You…” Wang Jiu stared at Ye Mo, speechless. In seconds, his four henchmen were dead.
“Kill him!” Wang Jiu quickly recovered and yelled, firing his gun at Ye Mo.
Ye Mo sneered, caught the bullet, and threw it back. The bullet pierced Wang Jiu’s wrist, sending his gun clattering to the floor.
Tens of gang members surrounded Ye Mo.
Ye Mo spun, leaping into the air. His hands unleashed wind blades and fireballs.
Blood sprayed everywhere; the room was a scene of carnage. Wang Jiu was completely stunned, forgetting his wounded wrist and that Ye Mo had caught his bullet barehanded. How could such a person exist? Was he even human? Killing like this? And fireballs?
Ye Mo’s wind control lasted only a few minutes. After a few minutes, he landed before Wang Jiu. The gang members in the meeting room were all dead, most reduced to ash.
“You…” Wang Jiu’s mouth went dry as he pointed shakily at Ye Mo. He’d seen many violent scenes, but nothing like this.
Those who knew Wang Jiu called him a slaughter demon, saying they’d rather offend Hades than him. But today, he finally understood the true meaning of the term.
“You’re gang leader Wang? You said you wanted to kill my family, so I came first,” Ye Mo kicked Wang Jiu from his seat, then kicked the unconscious woman. He sat down.
“Big Brother… this is a misunderstanding. From today on, I’m your subordinate. If you say east, I won’t go west,” Wang Jiu felt a chill, ignoring the corpses around him.
“Arghhh…” The woman awoke, screamed at the sight of the carnage.
Wang Jiu drew a dagger, slit her throat, and said, “This bitch tricked me into attacking Big Brother. I killed her… Big Brother…”
His teeth chattered. He never thought he’d be killed while killing. He valued his life above all else.
“I heard you were going to nail me like that man?” Ye Mo pointed to the nailed man.
“Misunderstanding, Big Brother… this is all a misunderstanding, I…” Wang Jiu couldn’t contain his fear. He understood Ye Mo’s intent.
Ye Mo sneered, walked to the nailed man, and pulled out several metal nails. He casually tossed the unconscious man aside and kicked Wang Jiu into the wooden block. Ye Mo’s nails pierced Wang Jiu’s ligaments perfectly.
“Ahhhhh…” Wang Jiu, the killer, fell unconscious. The block he designed to torture others now held him.
Seeing Wang Jiu unconscious, Ye Mo unleashed another wind blade, severing half his head. It sank into the wooden block.
Ye Mo tended to the man he’d saved, giving him pills and using his chi to heal him before leaving him there.
If he’d only wanted to deal with Wang Jiu, he could have left. But he had business at Flowing Snake and needed to eradicate the Amphibian Gang completely.
Ye Mo used his spirit sense to scan the area. He found boisterous Amphibian Gang members and, tens of meters away in an underground room, a horrific sight – a slaughterhouse, with numerous corpses piled together.
At that moment, the man Ye Mo saved awoke. Without looking at Ye Mo, he said, “The Amphibian Gang traffics humans and sells organs…” Then he fainted again.
Killing Wang Jiu so easily seemed insufficient.
Ye Mo didn’t continue searching. He left the meeting room and began a massacre. For the first time, he killed so brutally. Around two hundred Amphibian Gangsters were killed; none escaped.
Finally, Ye Mo felt relief. He took the unconscious man and left the room, then unleashed dozens of fireballs, burning the grand Amphibian Gang manor to ashes. The fire blazed, visible for tens of kilometers.
…
An hour later, the man awoke. His injuries were nothing to Ye Mo. Ye Mo left before he awoke.
The fire drew large numbers of police cars. They found ruins and the barely conscious man.
“Captain Wang, why are you here?” Two policemen ran over, recognizing the man, a police officer.
“The Amphibian Gang is full of sin. While gathering evidence, I was found by Wang Jiu’s men. I almost died, but someone saved me. I didn’t see them clearly. Report this immediately and hunt down the Amphibian Gang,” the man said, relieved to see his team.
…
The Sharp Corner Amphibian Gang was swiftly apprehended by the police. The official story was that the fugitives, having nowhere to go, burned their headquarters.
The Amphibian Gang controlled the borderlands, and no one dared to challenge them. They originated from Nan Qing and operated in their style. Their headquarters, built like a Nan Qing fortress by the sea, was easily defensible. Annihilating them seemed impossible.
But they met their match, slaughtered in a single night. Nearly 200 gang members; not one survived. No one dared speak of the person who annihilated them—that was the citizens’ story.
Regardless, the destruction of the Amphibian Gang was the most explosive event since the annihilation of the Xuan Jiang Qiao family. The difference was that everyone celebrated the Amphibian Gang's demise.
