I Use My Secondary Job To Add Talents

Chapter 26: Retaliation

However, just as Song Fulu was familiar with the poisons of the Passing River Association, the Crimson Tiger Gang was naturally familiar with the various poisons of the Crimson Tiger Gang, so the poison net set up by Song Fulu in the surroundings did not have much effect.

Fortunately, besides using the poisons commonly used by the Crimson Tiger Gang, Song Fulu also used a type of mandala poison obtained from the black market, and the enemy fell for it.

Tearing off the masked veil, it turned out to be a woman with a face full of flesh. If Song Fulu wasn't mistaken, this person should be Gao Qian, the superior of Cui Liangliang who had assassinated him last time, and also one of the most important incense masters under the Mange Hall.

Unexpectedly, the other party hadn't let him go yet and had personally come to assassinate him. If it weren't for Song Fulu's strong mental strength and high vigilance, he would probably be done for.

Gao Qian's frontal combat strength was not that great, but her assassination skills were quite high. Even in the entire Passing River City, she should be able to rank among the top.

After searching, there was nothing valuable. Just a poor ghost. As usual, Song Fulu threw her body into Ma Qingshan's yard before quietly returning.

Doing this was not considered setting a trap for Ma Qingshan. After all, if the killer couldn't be found, the credit naturally belonged to Ma Qingshan. Moreover, the Passing River Association had already issued a death order against Ma Qingshan. Even without the matter of Cui Liangliang and Gao Qian, Ma Qingshan couldn't escape being targeted by the Passing River Association.

For Ma Qingshan, Song Fulu's actions were definitely more beneficial than harmful.

Early the next morning, Ma Qingshan's yard became lively again. Looking at Gao Qian's body lying in the yard, Ma Qingshan was full of astonishment.

Why did this happen again? Last time, Cui Liangliang, Gao Qian's capable subordinate, died inexplicably in his yard, and now Gao Qian herself died in his yard. What's the situation?

The bosses of the other departments around congratulated Ma Qingshan and praised him.

"Manager Ma's poison skills are getting more and more powerful. He actually managed to poison Gao Qian of the Mange Hall."

"Manager Ma's methods are a bit excessive. She's a woman after all. It's fine to poison her, but why did he have to mutilate the body like this?"

"Thank you, Manager Ma. We finally avenged our brothers who died in the Ironsmith Department."

...

In order to avoid being recognized as the cause of Gao Qian's death, Song Fulu also destroyed her body by examining the wounds.

The credit for Gao Qian's murder, just like the credit for Cui Liangliang's murder, was all attributed to Ma Qingshan, which inexplicably earned him a lot of rewards. Just in terms of gang contributions, it was comparable to the accumulation of Song Fulu's years of missions.

If it weren't for the fear of exposure, Song Fulu would have taken credit for it a long time ago. This way, he could save a lot of time accumulating gang contributions.

It's only polite to reciprocate. It was fine for the Mange Hall to target him once, but at that time, he didn't bother with them because he was focused on his cultivation. Unexpectedly, they came for a second time. Even a clay figure had a bit of a temper, let alone Song Fulu.

Without strength, it would be fine, but Song Fulu's current strength was already capable of sweeping through the Interior Refinement realm. Even if it was an Earth Gate Martial Artist, whether they could defeat him was still unknown. How could he not retaliate?

After dozens of days, with everything prepared, Song Fulu left the courtyard under the cover of night and sneaked towards the Mange Hall of the Passing River Association several miles away.

Manghe Hall, Bamboo Forest Residence.

This is the residence of Qian Ming, the fragrance master of Manghe Hall. Qian Ming is responsible for various businesses of Manghe Hall and can be said to be the wealthiest fragrance master of Manghe Hall. The defense around him is also the most stringent.

Qian Ming's strength is only at the Interior Refinement Second Layer, but his residence is guarded by two Martial Artists at the Interior Refinement Fourth Layer.

Bamboo Forest Residence is a large courtyard with three entrances and three exits. There are many bamboo plants inside, and even at night, several guards patrol back and forth.

Song Fulu had already learned about the situation at Bamboo Forest Residence in advance. He skillfully infiltrated the residence, avoiding the patrolling guards one by one, and arrived near Qian Ming's bedroom.

The Manduo poison was quietly released, silently permeating the entire courtyard. The two Martial Artists at the Interior Refinement Fourth Layer who lived near Qian Ming had no resistance against this Manduo poison, which could make Earth Gate Martial Artists faint. They fell unconscious in their sleep.

After testing, Song Fulu found that everyone in the courtyard was unconscious. He quietly entered each room, looted the money and killed the Martial Artists inside. As for the elderly, women, and children without martial arts skills, Song Fulu did not harm them.

A few minutes later, Song Fulu left Bamboo Forest Residence and hurried towards the next target.

That night, Song Fulu poisoned and killed nearly a hundred Martial Artists from Manghe Hall. There were more than ten Interior Refinement Martial Artists alone, and the rest were Exterior Forging Martial Artists, including three fragrance masters.

Under Chen Zhan's leadership, Manghe Hall only had seven fragrance masters. Now, more than half of them had died at the hands of Song Fulu. It can be imagined how chaotic Manghe Hall had become.

"Crimson Tiger Gang, I will wipe out your entire gang!"

The next day, Chen Zhan roared angrily as he looked at the neatly arranged corpses filling the courtyard.

He directly attributed this matter to the Crimson Tiger Gang. As for who in the Crimson Tiger Gang did it, besides the experts from Battle Wolf Hall, were there any other branches with such formidable strength?

From beginning to end, Chen Zhan never thought that Song Fulu was responsible for this. He was just a mere Middle Level pharmacist, a weak Exterior Forging Martial Artist. How could he have killed so many high-level Martial Artists from Manghe Hall?

Even the shopkeeper of the Pharmacy Department, Ma Qingshan, and the hall master of Golden Toad Hall, Huang Jianming, did not have such strength. Therefore, based on reasonable speculation, this could only be the work of Battle Wolf Hall in the Crimson Tiger Gang.

Although Chen Zhan did not find much evidence of Battle Wolf Hall's involvement, did such a thing still require evidence?

Chen Zhan did not act rashly. With so many elite fragrance masters dead, he couldn't win even if he wanted to fight. So he decisively took dozens of corpses to seek help from the headquarters.

Soon, Passing River Association sent a large number of experts to retaliate against the Crimson Tiger Gang's territory. At the same time, the Crimson Tiger Gang also received the news and learned about what happened at Manghe Hall last night. They anticipated that Passing River Association might seek revenge and had already prepared for it.

The two sides fought in the streets for a day, leaving behind hundreds of corpses before finally leaving. At this moment, the Crimson Tiger Gang was also quite puzzled, not knowing who was behind last night's incident.

Zhao Chihu, the leader of the Crimson Tiger Gang, specifically asked each hall master, but they all denied their involvement. They were also puzzled and conducted an investigation but found no clues as to who did it.

However, this incident was ultimately a good thing for the Crimson Tiger Gang. With Manghe Hall being crippled by a mysterious expert, the territory of the Crimson Tiger Gang could expand a bit more. Even if they had to bear the blame, it didn't matter.

As an outsider and a weak pharmacist, Song Fulu, with the resources and treasures he looted from the fragrance masters of Manghe Hall, was rapidly advancing. He soon reached a bottleneck and was about to break through to a new layer.
