"I’m in favor of the robbery, but have you checked out the targets?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"Rest assured! Within hundreds of miles around Jingfeng City, we’ve surveyed all the small towns! Our targets are those wealthy yet ruthless, tyrannical landlords with terrible reputations!" He Yue explained.

"In that case, let’s move!" Zhang Xiaohao nodded.

"Before we set off, you need to test your strength. Before One-eyed entered the path of cultivation, he was a top martial artist in Jianghu, skilled in using the Thunderclap Hand. If you can withstand a hundred moves from One-eyed without defeat, you’ll have a share in the action! If you lose, you’ll handle logistics!" He Yue said.

Zhang Xiaohao naturally understood her intention; logistics meant all kinds of tiring and dirty tasks, all done by himself.

"Bring it on!" Zhang Xiaohao called out.

Whiz!

One-eyed inserted his Mountain Opening Saber magic artifact into the ground with one hand and approached with the stride of a dragon and tiger’s, stopping three steps from Zhang Xiaohao, staring at him intently.

"Though you’re one of us now, when we fight, I won’t hold back. Hope you won’t scream too extravagantly!" One-eyed boasted.

"Go ahead, if you can make me scream, it’ll count as my loss!" Zhang Xiaohao replied.

"Hmph! Nice talk, hope your skills match your words!" One-eyed said.

With that, he stomped his right foot on the ground, raising a massive gale, his strong body rushed towards Zhang Xiaohao quickly, both palms slashed upwards and downwards, a fiery red glow appeared on his hands, followed by a low growl: "Black Sand Thunderclap Hand!"

With One-eyed’s words, his palms bore terrifying fiery red glows, ferociously slashing towards Zhang Xiaohao, moving swiftly like a gust, targeting Zhang Xiaohao’s vital spots and blocking all escape routes.

"Regretful Dragon!" Zhang Xiaohao growled.

His right hand flipped and rolled, a terrifying golden dragon burst from his palm, hitting One-eyed’s Black Sand Thunderclap Hand.

Bang!

As they clashed, when Zhang Xiaohao controlled his physical strength, his cultivation remained at the level of a top martial artist. The wild palm force sent out a huge wave, pushing One-eyed’s body back three steps.

"Haven’t used this palm technique in a long time, not satisfied with the power!" Zhang Xiaohao said, shaking his head.

Whoosh!

He tapped with one foot, using the long-lost Twelve Heavenly Steps, leaving an afterimage, quickly rushing up, palms rolling again, growling: "Divine Dragon’s Tail!"

With Zhang Xiaohao’s words, a gigantic golden True Dragon erupted from his right palm, blasting towards One-eyed.

"Bring it on!" One-eyed snorted coldly.

With energy sinking to his Dantian, his Black Sand Thunderclap Hand flipped and rolled, raising a blood-red shadow, then pushed forward fiercely, growling: "Thunderclap Eight Forms!"

As One-eyed’s words fell, the two palms fiercely collided.

Boom!

Only to see Black Sand’s body like a kite with a broken string, violently blasted away by Zhang Xiaohao’s Divine Dragon’s Tail, retreated over ten steps before stopping.

"Well fought." Zhang Xiaohao clasped his hands, performing a Jianghu courtesy.

"Nice skills! If it weren’t for the chance encounter leading me to the path of cultivation, under that powerful palm maneuver, I’d be bedridden for three to five months!" One-eyed laughed.

"Not at all!" Zhang Xiaohao said humbly.

"You’re impressive! You didn’t disappoint me as village chief; no wonder you can be a master thief, you’re capable! Given that, let’s head to Lanye Town now and rob that ruthless landlord!" He Yue said coldly.

Then under her lead, the group headed to Lanye Town.

Lanye Town is one of the hundreds of towns under Jingfeng City, the most powerful cultivator is the town chief, at the Golden Core Early Stage, but due to certain matters, is currently in Jingfeng City.

Besides the Lanye Town chief, who is a Golden Core Realm expert, the others in Lanye Town are only in the Foundation Establishment Realm. Because they had thoroughly investigated beforehand, He Yue’s group from Black Dragon Village dared to act.

A week passed.

Led by He Yue, Zhang Xiaohao and the group specifically took those remote mountain trails, the more desolate, the more they passed through.

That night, Zhang Xiaohao and the group finally arrived three miles outside Lanye Town, hidden in a mountain gorge.

"There might be a tough fight ahead, let’s eat something to fill up our bellies first," He Yue called.

With a slap on the storage bag at her waist, she took out dozens of buns, throwing three over, along with some clean stream water.

"Thank you." Zhang Xiaohao said.

He took the buns and ate heartily with the stream water.

Previously on Earth when executing missions, Zhang Xiaohao ate not just buns, but also wild vegetables and tree bark. Having buns to eat now is really nice.

Seeing Zhang Xiaohao enjoying the buns without any discomfort, He Yue let down her last bit of wariness.

Only those living at the edge of a knife truly understand the value of food and won’t waste grains casually. As for others, ask them to eat buns with stream water, guarantee they’ll spit it out with one bite.

After everyone ate and drank their fill, He Yue glanced at the sky, seeing there was still time till 2 AM.

"A few more hours until 2 AM. Everyone rest first; when the time comes, we’ll rob that ruthless landlord!" He Yue said.

"Got it." Everyone nodded, sitting down on the ground.

Zhang Xiaohao found a grassy spot, lazily lay down, and directly slept.

As for the night cold, even without running cultivation techniques, it couldn’t harm him in the slightest.

He Yue scanned the group, seeing everyone had begun resting, sat with legs crossed on the ground, ran cultivation techniques, resting her mind.

As the wind blew and time passed, it was soon 2 AM.

Swish!

In the midst of cultivation, He Yue suddenly opened her eyes, swiftly stood from the ground.

"Time’s up, let’s prepare to act!" He Yue called.

With her words, Zhang Xiaohao and others immediately opened their eyes and stood up.

"When we enter that tenant’s property, I’ll use formation flags to set up a formation covering the courtyard, then we’ll strike." He Yue stated.
