Chapter 3: Targeting the Lim Family

It was an unusual morning in the city of Hong Sha. People from the martial world were going in and out of the city, which was known as a trading town. Today there will be an auction of antiques, heirlooms, and precious treasures. First-class merchants were arriving at the place to offer their wares.

A large building right in the center of Hong Sha was named after the Lim Family Chamber of Commerce. A large family that was not only famous for its members' great martial arts skills but also their expertise in commerce The big market this time was held at the Lim family's chamber of commerce.

The big market would be held in three days. But already many martial artists from both the black and white schools had come to visit. It was in this town that the warriors of the two sects met without engaging in combat. It was a rule that had been in place for a long time, and anyone who violated it would certainly become a common enemy of the two sects.

It was not only people from the martial world who were interested and came. Those who were in a family association, especially those who came from wealthy families and whose martial arts skills were high, also came. It was in the market that they usually found precious mestika or heirlooms that could improve their skills.

That morning, the warriors staying overnight gathered in the hall of the highly desirable Yan Ming restaurant. Unlike other places, the hall of Yan Ming's restaurant had a special room so that from the outside, it wouldn't be possible to see who the visitors were.

"Brother Yao, what did you bring in exchange at Lim's chamber of commerce later?"

Ahhh, of course I can't talk about it here, Brother Wan. It would be an offense to show my precious wares in this place," replied the one called Brother Yao.

Brother Wan nodded his head. The two of them were old friends: one named Yao Jung, a swordsman who was well-regarded in his town, and the other named Wan Yang, a medical expert. Their conversation was getting more and more animated, but they didn't realize that there were angry stares elsewhere, not far from where they were.

"How could that She Yao person have anything of value to sell? He only came here as a vagabond to quench his thirst and please his heart. A poor person like him doesn't deserve to be here."

About four tables away from Yao Hung and Wan Yang, a gray-clothed, bearded man mouthed insults at Yao Hung. He was a member of the Black Star Sect. A sect that could not be said to be either righteous or heretical. His name was Bao Hung.

"Hey you, She Bao! It seems like your life is not happy unless you interfere with other people's lives." Yao Jung snapped angrily.

"I have nothing to do with other people's lives. But I always have to deal with yours. If you don't pay me with one arm, I won't let you go!" said Bao Hung.

"You're too naive, She Bao. It's as if I'm the one who committed the crime in your sect. It was you who committed the robbery in my village, and we fought back. The death of your men was due to their own actions," Yao Jung snapped no less fiercely.

"Whatever the reason, you have taken the lives of my men. A life for a life."

Just as the sparring between Yao Jung and Bao Hung was getting heated, a man with a pale face suddenly arrived.

"Gentlemen, magic warriors Our lord, the leader of the Lim family, has invited us to his residence right now. There is a great matter that my master would like to ask for your help with and discuss with you."

Instantly, the debate came to a halt. Their attention was now drawn to the man who had just arrived. He was the main assistant to the Lim family leader. Hearing that, almost all the diners rushed to the Lim family residence.

Not long after, almost all the martial arts experts who came to Hong Sha City appeared at the Lim family residence. They were immediately greeted by the family leader.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please forgive me for interrupting your time. There is an urgent matter that I need help with. Come with me to the main hall of the chamber of commerce."

Everything was mysterious in the eyes of the attending practitioners and martial arts experts. They could clearly see the burden that Leader Lim was carrying. Even more curiosity clouded their minds.

"Palm of the Blood God!"

Almost simultaneously, the incoming practitioners and martial arts experts called out 'Blood Demon Palm'. They had never directly seen the legendary knowledge that had disappeared hundreds of years ago. A high-level science in the martial world that no one had ever defeated.

From the characteristics of the punch on the wall, it was very clear that it was the legendary Blood God Palm Punch. A palm that still had its attacking power and poisonous air even though it was just stuck to the wall.

'I'm coming in two days! If the entire Lim family is to survive, then cut off the heads of all the Lim family members involved in the massacre of a warrior's family ten years ago. Otherwise, I will take the lives of the entire Lim family, leaving no one behind. No one is allowed to leave this house, or he will die! Those who have nothing to do with this family should leave quickly, or they'll be facing the King of Hell soon.

A blood-red, deadly message was emblazoned just below the reddish-colored palm. The warriors and martial arts experts in that place seemed to be extremely shocked by the threat. Some of them recognized a punch emblazoned on the wall of the main hall of Leader Lim's residence.

"What does this mean, Leader Lim?" asked a compactly dressed man with a sword on his back.

The person who asked was a renowned swordsman in the South. People referred to him as the Sword King of the South. A disciple of one of the Milky Angels of the Martial World

"We just received this threat. It seems to be closely related to the tragedy that befell the Liong family ten years ago," Leader Lim explained.

"Ahhh... that tragedy was truly shameful. Were you also involved in that attack? Until now, I didn't know who the person was who gave the order to eliminate Swordsman Liong Chen's family. There was only news that he had learned heretical martial arts and would endanger the martial world, so it needed to be prevented. But in fact, that day was the day of the massacre." The Sword King of the South looked down, regretting his words.

"What is it?" exclaimed the Northern Beggar King.

Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to the direction the Northern Beggar King was pointing. It turned out that on the wall, the blood writing had increased.

'You'd better not interfere. All those involved will definitely get their turn. In two days, if you are still in this place, you too will have the same fate!'
