Chapter 140: Chapter 133: Robbery and Murder (Additional 1000 Updates)_1

The bandit forces hidden in the dense woods of Xiangnan numbered nearly eighty to a hundred, among which already over ten had fighters in the Innate Realm. The man who had assembled everyone, known as Old Knife Handle, was the strongest among them. Including him, his crew consisted of six martial artists in the Innate Realm.

The planned attack on Yan Qingxue and her company was actually arranged by Yan Shengheng, who reached out to Old Knife Handle. He, in turn, had contacted the other six parties.

The reason Old Knife Handle was so eager in facilitating this was not just for the five million taels of silver. He was actually aiming to clean his slate.

Most of those who set up camps in the forests of Xiangnan to become bandits were leisure cultivators. Some had offended the local martial world forces and had no choice but to seek their livelihood in these dense forests.
