I have an endless army of warriors, rampaging across the heavens.

Chapter 21 Siblings Reunion
The carefree days flew by.

April is almost over.

Looking back on April, it was the most enjoyable month of Sakyo's life, both past and present.

Those with whom you have a grudge, kill them!

If you're unhappy, hit me!
Stir up trouble.

Unscrupulous.

As the saying goes, "There is endless joy in fighting with others."

Zuo Jing fights others without even having to fight himself; he doesn't even show his face, yet he can still ensure that his enemies and villains receive their due punishment. It's so satisfying!
Zuo Jing is having a great time.

Some people are unhappy.

Especially Meng Lou.

"waste!"

"It's all rubbish!"

Peng Dingqiu is throwing things again.

Outside the study.

Old Cai, Grandpa Shen, Aunt Hong, Sister Hua, Black Ghost.

The five senior executives of Menglou exchanged glances, each with a different expression.

In the past ten years or so, it has been rare to see Peng Dingqiu so irritable and out of control, but in the past few days, it has happened several times.

It's no wonder Peng Dingqiu lacked self-cultivation.

The once grand Menglou, which had been painstakingly built up over a decade, had become visibly deserted in the past two weeks, leaving everyone helpless.

Who wouldn’t be angry?
There's nothing I can do about it.

Old Cai sighed, "As long as the Green Bamboo Gang doesn't stop causing trouble, no one will dare to come to Menglou."

Hong Gu smiled bitterly: "Now it's not just the Green Bamboo Gang anymore. All sorts of forces in Shangyang City are kicking us while we're down. Seeing that the Green Bamboo Gang has its sights set on Menglou's lifeline, they've been ruthlessly killing the regular customers who frequent Menglou. In the past half month, more than thirty regular customers of Menglou have been killed or injured. They're all scared!"

Come and die!
Who would dare to come?

Eating, drinking, and womanizing!

What's wrong?

Why do you insist on coming to Menglou?
Ultimately, while Menglou is high-end, it is not irreplaceable.

After being inexplicably attacked by the masses, the desolation and ruin of Menglou was an inevitable and irreversible outcome that everyone could see.

A very good situation.

What a huge industry.

How could Peng Dingqiu not be furious that his life was ruined so carelessly?
I'm so angry!

Master Shen sighed, "We can guard Menglou strictly, but we can't stop those people from launching assassinations outside Menglou."

He now finally understands the frustration Wufutang had suffered before.

It stands to reason.

No matter who you are, if you have a grudge against Meng Lou, then come and cause trouble for Meng Lou, kill Meng Lou's people, or even assassinate Peng Dingqiu, right?

That makes sense!

This is called "the grievance has its source, the debt has its debtor".

but--

“They didn’t have the guts to kill us, but they went on a killing spree against the guests coming and going from Menglou.”

"Again and again."

"Who would dare to come?"

Master Shen has been feeling numb these past few days.

He was in charge of guarding Menglou and was the absolute force in charge, but he was completely helpless against this shameless fighting style.

Assassinations occurred one after another.

Hard to guard against.

The impact was extremely negative.

Where you eat doesn't matter.
Doesn't it matter where you have fun?
Menglou is wonderful, but the risk of losing one's life cannot be ignored.

Master Shen sighed, "This battle was a truly frustrating defeat!"

Who said no!
Hong Gu laughed bitterly: "The Green Bamboo Gang used this trick to bring down the Five Blessings Hall back then. I didn't expect them to use the same old trick again. Even I, Meng Lou, can't withstand such a shameless tactic."

All five of them felt aggrieved.

They had plenty of strength, but couldn't find anyone to fight them.

Every time I exerted my strength, it was all in vain; my punches landed on cotton.

Wrong!

I feel so frustrated!

Meng Lou has always been unruly and domineering in private.

It's always the good people who get bullied like this; they can't run a business.

But now it's their turn to be sanctioned.

Who is the good guy and who is the bad guy?

Can't tell.

I really can't tell the difference.

After years of being powerful, Master Shen, Aunt Hong, and others experienced for the first time the frustration of being bullied and powerless to fight back.

Really!

I really want to report this to the authorities!

Unfortunately, reporting it to the authorities was of no use.

……

April twenty-fifth.

左京麾下死士总数达257人，其中1级（199人），2级（2人），3级（5人），4级（7人），5级（10人），6级（13人），7级（21人）。

"I've stirred up a storm in Shangyang City. Even though true hermits live in the city, they can't help but live in fear." "Why don't we go to Xiayang City?"

"Firstly, it would allow me to reunite with my eldest sister and enjoy family time."

"Secondly, it's safer to be away from Shangyang City."

Among the 21 level 7 assassins that Zuo Jing refreshed today, there is one named Zheng Ba, who possesses the max-level 'midwife' skill.

The eldest sister, Zuo Rong, is due to give birth in a few months. Under the conditions of this world, childbirth for a woman is no less than a brush with death. Zuo Jing taking Zheng Ba with her is a kind of insurance.

“When Zheng Ba delivers the baby, you should accompany him.”

“Zheng Shiliu drove the car and served as the driver.”

"Zheng Qi shoots arrows, Zheng Nian wrestles, and acts as a bodyguard."

Zuo Jing is afraid of death, but now with 21 newly recruited level 7 assassins escorting him, he can be completely safe.

Do it when you think of it.

This morning.

Zuo Jing, carrying Zuo Cheng whose legs were still not fully healed, headed straight for Xiayang City.

The Great Yan Dynasty comprised two capitals and thirteen provinces.

Jiujiang Province is named after the Jiujiang River that flows through it. The province has countless rivers and mountains, so people often travel by water when going on long journeys or transporting large quantities of goods.

Sakyo doesn't use water.

He doesn't have a boat; if he wants to travel by water, he can only take a passenger ship.

The distance from Shangyang City to Xiayang City is two hundred li. A passenger boat can travel fifty li a day and it takes four days to reach the destination.

The journey is easy to explain.

But if something goes wrong on the water, the large ship could capsize, leaving nowhere to run, making it extremely unsafe.

It's better to take the land route.

Get a horse-drawn carriage and have Zheng Shiliu drive it eastward.

In a blink of an eye.

Three days passed.

April 28th, early in the morning.

Zuojing Zuocheng arrived at Xiayangcheng.

……

"Sakyo!"

"Zuocheng!"

"Oh my God!"

"How did you two get here?!"

Zuo Rong jogged to the door and sure enough, she saw her two younger brothers standing outside. Her eyes widened in surprise and joy. She hugged her brothers tightly, her face full of disbelief!

Although Zuo Jing had seen his elder sister several times in recent days through possession, he could not reveal his identity and therefore it could not be considered a true meeting.

Now, being held by my older sister, I truly feel the deep bond between siblings.

Zuo Jing said with concern, "Big sister is pregnant, be careful when you run."

Zuo Rong slapped him: "It's all your fault! Why didn't you tell me you were coming with Xiao Cheng? I could have had your brother-in-law pick you up. How did those two kids get here?!"

Zuo Rong couldn't help but cry.

She cried while hugging me at first.

Hugging and hugging.

She cried and cried.

She then let go of her two younger brothers and kept looking at them.

I kept crying while watching it.

She married and moved to Xiayang City, a faraway place, and her husband was away for long periods. She felt incredibly lonely and often felt sad and secretly wiped away tears when she was alone, missing her family and her younger brother.

But two hundred miles is too far.

It's unrealistic for her to return to Shangyang City or for her two younger brothers to come to Xiayang City.

Zuo Rong only ever thought about it.

But I didn't expect it.

God suddenly sent his two younger brothers to him.

Zuo Rong was pleasantly surprised.

I was overjoyed.

Zuo Jing patted his older sister on the back, not wanting her to get too emotional, and changed the subject, saying, "Thanks to these two older brothers for bringing us here."

Zuo Jing pointed to the refined 'midwife' Zheng Ba and the honest 'driver' Zheng Shiliu, and introduced them to his eldest sister: "Eldest sister, do you remember, more than ten years ago, when our parents gave a family of refugees a few meals?"

"These two are the two sons of that family. The elder brother is called Zheng Sheng and the younger brother is called Zheng Che. After they grew up, the two Zheng brothers always wanted to repay our family. When they came to Shangyang City, they inquired and found me and Zuo Cheng."

Zuo Rong only vaguely remembered that something from more than ten years ago had happened.

But did that family of refugees have two sons?
Can not remember.

Zuo Rong was confused.

Zuo Jing continued to make up a story: "Big sister, you don't know, Shangyang City has been in chaos lately. Many gangs are fighting each other, and they've even lost their heads. Zuo Cheng and I were thinking of coming to Xiayang City to find you. It just so happened that the two Brother Zhengs were also coming to Xiayang City to do business, so they brought us over without saying a word."

Zuo Cheng then added, "Big sister, we're doing very well. The carriage ride was comfortable the whole way!"

Zuo Rong, without suspecting anything, quickly thanked the so-called 'Zheng Sheng' and 'Zheng Che': "Thank you so much, you two!"

He immediately turned to his personal maid: "Xiao Huan, give me the purse."

Seeing this, Zuo Jing gave Zheng Bashi a wink.

Zheng Ba hurriedly said, "Miss Zuo, you don't need to be so polite. Uncle Zuo and Aunt Zuo saved our whole family's lives with just a few meals back then. What's a little something like this?"

Zheng Shiliu said from the side, "We have rented a courtyard both inside and outside the city, and we plan to do business in Xiayang City for a long time. We will first open a clothing shop inside the city and a pottery workshop outside the city. In the future, if you benefactors need us, my brothers and I will do anything to help you!"
