Of course, those who manage to get out alive are nothing short of extraordinary!

The final player is Yang Wanshou, who allegedly comes from the Inner Sea, also known as the Cang Ming Ocean Territory.

As for why he came to the Outer Sea, he didn’t share. Xu Yiren guessed he likely offended someone in the Inner Sea and had no choice but to flee to the Outer Sea.

Otherwise, given Yang Wanshou’s situation, it would obviously be more comfortable and safer for him to stay in the Cang Ming Ocean Territory.

Xu Mu didn’t spend much effort inquiring about Yang Wanshou; the man was so old that he clearly had little interest in conflict. Xu Mu only needed to show a little of his powers and Yang Wanshou readily promised cooperation.

Furthermore, Yang Wanshou was quite enthusiastic about the prospect, almost as if he was eager to have control of the Whale Sea Gang.

If one were willing to disregard his age, Yang Wanshou’s aspiration seemed like a version of Xu Mu’s own.

Both men wished for stability with stronger leadership in the Whale Sea Gang, the safer their positions became.

As for what benefits would be gained, Yang Wanshou, being advanced in age, probably didn’t care much.

“By the way, Lord Xu, there is another gang named the Iron Corpse Gang nearby, a sect consisting of demonic cultivators. Could you find time to eliminate them?” Xu Yiren suddenly asked in a coquettish manner.

Xu Mu was speechless.

Smack!

She had barely tamed him, and now she wanted to use him as a weapon?

He exerted minor force in a smack, with his current physique, it was enough to shatter hard rock.

“Ah!”

Despite Xu Yiren being at the Foundation Establishment Stage, she couldn’t help but let out a scream. The noise was so loud it nearly alerted guards patrolling outside.

After being harshly slapped, Xu Yiren’s eyes filled with tears, unsure of what she had done wrong.

Being completely subdued, she didn’t even think of resisting.

“I don’t need you order me around. If you speak out of turn again, I’ll take you to the marketplace for three rounds!”

“I won’t dare again!”

Xu Yiren couldn’t help but tremble with fear, and dew started to form at the cave entrance.

However, women are always saying one thing and meaning another.

“Tell me about the other gangs in the area now!”

“Yes!”

As Xu Yiren narrated, Xu Mu realized he might have misunderstood her.

It wasn’t Xu Yiren trying to use him, but rather that the Iron Corpse Gang was a powerful force continually trying to annex the surrounding gangs. They had repeatedly caused trouble for the Whale Sea Gang, but had never dared to do so recklessly due to the presence of Whale Falling Chen. Even though Whale Falling Chen was advanced in age, the perfection of his Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation abilities still held a significant deterrent force.

In addition, Whale Falling Chen was very capable of maintaining relationships with several nearby gangs. After forming alliances, he had been able to suppress the expansion of the Iron Corpse Gang.

From the name alone, you can tell that the Iron Corpse Gang is a demonic sect specializing in corpse refining.

The Iron Corpse Gang did not have many cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage, but their corpse refining techniques were powerful. In particular, their leader Iron Corpse Superior was powerful enough to control several refined corpses forming a formation. Except for those at the Golden Core Stage, he had almost no rivals.

The refined corpses had hard bodies immune to sword and spear attacks. They were fearless fighters, laden with the aura of death, and weren’t difficult to refine.

Relying on this technique, the Iron Corpse Gang kept neighboring gangs in fear and they could only passively resist.

“If they don’t provoke us, we won’t provoke them. We should just manage our gang peacefully!” Xu Mu quickly decided and told Xu Yiren.

Even though he knew he would have to face this issue sooner or later, Xu Mu thought later would be better.

Xu Yiren didn’t dare voice her opinions, so all she could do was nod in agreement.

However, the turn of events far exceeded Xu Mu’s expectations. He thought he could buy a few years and maybe by then, he would be back home, no longer needing to worry about these messy affairs.

Unexpectedly, just a few days later, a warning came from the city marketplace guards: members of the Iron Corpse Gang had shown up to create trouble.

“The ambition of this Iron Corpse Gang seems really big! Just a few days after Xu Yiren became the gang leader, they came knocking on our door!” A frustrated Xu Mu could only rush to the city marketplace with Xu Yiren to deal with the situation.

Not long after entering the marketplace, they noticed two groups confronting one another in front of the Whale Sea Gang’s shop from afar.

One group was large but seemed hesitant. The other only had a handful of people, yet they were calm and fearless.

A few people lay motionless between the two sides, apparently dead.

The larger group was Whale Sea Gang’s marketplace guards. The smaller group consisted of six cultivators in black robes.

Of the six cultivators, four were completely shrouded in black robes with their faces hidden, while the other two were open-faced, middle-aged men with menacing eyes and unnaturally pale skin. One had a broad nose and face, and the other a pointed chin, sporting a burn on his forehead. Both held rattles in their hands.

The four cultivators completely covered in black robes stood behind them like guards.

Using his Divine Intent, Xu Mu scanned the area, yet he didn’t feel any human aura from the four shrouded figures, only bloodthirsty coldness.

It seemed that the four, hidden beneath the robes, were refined corpses. The other two were probably corpse refining cultivators from the Iron Corpse Gang.

Feeling Xu Mu’s Divine Intent, the two turned to look at them. Their gazes scanned over Xu Mu and Xu Yiren without revealing any surprise.

“Gang Leader!”
