After Li Yang left the shop, he returned to the Fortune Gambling Stone Market as soon as possible.
Earlier, Shui Xiang had told Li Yang on the phone that she had sent people to track Jin Shi and found that he had entered a gambling stone city. That gambling stone city was the Tianyu Gambling Stone City, previously owned by Gui Bu Nian.
After Gui Bu Nian was arrested, Situ Jue had put in considerable effort to seize that gambling stone city.
Li Yang had originally intended to acquire that gambling stone city, but unfortunately, Situ Jue had been a step ahead, sending people to occupy it first and then acquiring it outright at a high price.
Since Jin Shi had gone there, there was no doubt that the fellow had been sent by Situ Jue.
"Li Yang, you're finally here. I've already sent people to constantly monitor Tianyu Gambling Stone City. Jin Shi hasn't come out yet. I suspect he went back to report, and perhaps Situ Jue will come for revenge if he knows Jin Shi was wronged here," Shui Xiang said to Li Yang with great concern after seeing him arrive at the shop.
She had never directly confronted Situ Jue before, but she had heard of his reputation. With her current strength, she was in no position to contend with Situ Jue.
However, Li Yang was full of disdain. He patted her head and comforted her, "Don't worry. It would be even better if Situ Jue came here. I was just looking for an excuse to deal with him. If he dares to make a move, I'll show him my might."
"You want to compete with Situ Jue?" Shui Xiang looked at Li Yang with great surprise, shook her head, and said decisively, "Situ Jue is the biggest antique dealer in Jiang City. He's ruthless. Ordinary people wouldn't dare to oppose him without some serious skills."
"You said ordinary people wouldn't dare to oppose him, but I'm not ordinary." Li Yang smiled slightly, patting Shui Xiang's head, and said, "Don't worry, I've already crossed paths with Situ Jue before. He's no match for me. I just didn't expect him to bring trouble to you."
"Since he wants to stir up trouble, let him come. I want to see if his head is harder or my fists are harder."
"But..." Shui Xiang was still worried, fearing that Li Yang might suffer at Situ Jue's hands. But before she could finish speaking, Li Yang smiled and said, "No 'buts'. If he dares to send people, I'll take care of him on the way."
"Before I leave Jiang City, I will definitely eliminate this scoundrel, Situ Jue."
"Hahaha, what a big boast!"
As soon as Li Yang finished speaking, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the entrance of the gambling stone market. Li Yang and Shui Xiang turned their heads simultaneously and saw Situ Jue arriving with Jin Shi. Following behind Situ Jue were several people dressed in very peculiar ways. They exuded a strong aura of true qi, and each of them was a top master.
He walked in slowly with his men, looking at Li Yang with disdain and saying, "I, Situ Jue, have been in Jiang City for so many years, and I haven't encountered a real opponent for a long time."
"Li Yang, you kid are one of them. It's impressive that you've been able to contend with me for so long."
"It's a pity your vision is short-sighted. You thought that by sending people to monitor my gambling stone market, you could know my movements. You've underestimated me too much."
As his words fell, he gently clapped his hands. The few people Shui Xiang had sent were simultaneously thrown in from outside the door. They lay on the ground, their hands and feet broken, spitting blood. They looked to be in a very serious condition. And all of this was done by Situ Jue!
When Shui Xiang saw this scene, she was incredibly panicked. What a ruthless person Situ Jue was, to act so viciously!
Li Yang's eyes narrowed. Seeing his severely injured subordinates, his face immediately turned furious. He glared at Situ Jue and said, "Speak of the devil. I haven't even gone to find you, and you dare to come looking for me."
"Are you bringing so many people here to avenge Jin Shi?"
The moment Li Yang saw him, a murderous glint flashed in his eyes. He said coldly, "My sister Shui has no conflict with you, why are you causing trouble for her?"
"Do I need your permission to conduct my business, Situ Jue?" Situ Jue said arrogantly, "You've crossed me multiple times, kid. You've long been a thorn in my side. I've come today to get revenge, and I will also thoroughly humiliate the woman you love in front of you."
"I originally intended to make my subordinates make things difficult for her first, forcing her to kneel before me and beg me, and then ruin her reputation. But I didn't expect my plan to be ruined by you." Situ Jue's expression turned cold and sinister, "But it's okay even if you ruined my plan. It's not too late to settle our score now."
As his words fell, Situ Jue waved his hand gently. The several masters behind him stepped forward simultaneously and lined up.
Li Yang frowned, noticing the murderous intent in their eyes. He asked coldly, "Situ Jue, what do you mean? Do you want them to fight me?"
"Li Yang, your time of death has come. The humiliation you made me suffer before will be repaid tenfold today," Jin Shi threatened fiercely. "These few are top experts hired by Master Situ specifically to deal with you."
"The蛊术师 you dealt with before are nothing compared to these masters. If you want to live, kid, apologize to me now and kneel before Master Situ to admit your mistake. Perhaps there will be a way out," Jin Shi interrupted Li Yang and stepped forward to threaten him.
"A dog of Situ Jue, how dare you be arrogant in front of me?" Li Yang's expression was indifferent. He immediately used a teleportation step to rush in front of Jin Shi and slapped him across the face, sending him flying. As Jin Shi fell to the ground, his mind reeled, and he couldn't react for a long time.
Seeing this, Situ Jue's face suddenly turned angry. He clenched his fists and said, "Kid, you dare to touch my people? You're seeking death."
"You are the one seeking death!" Li Yang's expression was icy. He clenched his fists and said, "You humiliated my woman, which is like touching the dragon's scales. Today, I will act on behalf of heaven and remove you from the antique world."
"Hmph, still arrogant when death is at your doorstep. I want your life now. Attack me, all of you!" As Situ Jue's voice fell, everyone charged at Li Yang simultaneously.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them surrounded Li Yang in a triangle formation. They each struck out with their palms, and surging palm force instantly struck towards Li Yang's chest. Li Yang stood his ground without moving. As the three palms approached, he stomped his foot, and a wave of energy rippled through his body. Using the true qi emanating from himself, he blocked the palm force of the three. When the palm force of the three was less than ten centimeters away from Li Yang, it seemed to encounter a massive barrier, completely unable to break through.
