Chapter 477 Return of Ong

Despite Jin's loud declaration that he was there to face them, the Ruby Rat gangster paid little attention to him. Instead, they continued with their harassment and vandalism of the district. Jin then realised that he was not the only objective in the eyes of the Ruby Rats.

"Si Fang!" With a speed boost from the Green Panda Wind, Jin instantly covered the distance between him and Lele cafe, colliding on any Ruby Rat who was in his way. The other four demon exorcist trainees followed behind him and rendered the other Ruby Rats along the way unconscious.

"Boss Jin! Thank you for coming! My customers have already informed the police, and they said they are on the way!" Si Fang, who was quivering with fear when he held onto his sword, made Jin feel both proud and disappointed at the same time.

Proud to know that Si Fang had decided to stand up for his shop but at the same time disappointed with himself as he could have done more for the shopping community right over here than just earning money from them.

"I will try to make this right. For now, follow these cultivators to my shop. They will provide cover for you!" Jin ordered as another Ruby Rat gangster attempted to stab him from the back. With a quick draw of his blade, the gangster was mercilessly cut into two, and the rest took the opportunity to run back to Dungeons and Pandas.

"System, what exactly has happened to trigger all of this?" Jin asked as he revealed his Pandaromic Eyes and scanned all the possible threats with the aid of the System.

"According to the CCTV footages that the System has control over within Tiangong District, the Demon exorcist trainees seemed to have been threatened by a group of Ruby Rat Triad members. While it at first appears to be an uncommon scene which was handled frequently by the patrol officers on a daily basis, the Ruby Rat members for undetermined reasons, have initiated the first blow against the officers this time." The System stated saying that there was a high chance the patrol officer was killed in action.

"White Panda Ice Showers!" Jin shouted as he visualised multiple ice arrows up in the skies and rained down on the crowd aiming specifically on Ruby Rat members only. That was possible all thanks to the aid of his new Pandaromic Eyes. The System indicated that there was a 70% hit success from that particular technique, causing some of the injured Ruby Rats to be mortally wounded. The remaining 30% managed to block or evade the ice arrows.

"People! Those who seek shelter, move to Dungeons and Pandas! I have assistants to aid you there!" Jin shouted once more with even more chi infused. The panicked crowd took the opportunity to flee when most of the Ruby Rats were injured to escape. Many tried their best to fall back while others who were capable of fighting thanks to Jin's dungeon's training held the line momentarily against the Ruby Rats.

Jin then picked up Bam and Boo and transformed both of the swords into a two handed staff. He smashed the BamBoo staff on the ground and applied his Maqi into it. Using his Pandaromic Eyes once more, he was able to identify who were the civilians and amplified his Maqi into the area, buffing them with the Green Panda Wind energy.

Buffing one to two cultivators had been manageable for Jin during the fight with the Transforming Spiders. However, this time, it was a different scenario. The passers-by numbered two dozens and counting with the aid of Pandaromic Eyes. Jin would not have been able to help everyone unless he used Bam and Boo as the amplifier. Still, he felt the burden on spending so much mana. He was sure, that if he had to quantify it, it would be at least an Advanced if not Epic Art level.

When Jin inserted a huge portion of his Maqi into the BamBoo staff, a panda head appeared at the top of the staff which caused its mouth to open and release the Green Panda Wind energy into the atmosphere. A large green panda silhouette emerged from the density of Maqi surrounding Jin as if it had just woken up from a nap.

The yawn it produced spread the buff to every innocent civilian in the vicinity, and they all felt lighter that they quickly proceed to Jin's Dungeons and Pandas. Even the cultivators who were defending the civilians from the Ruby Rats felt invigorated by the sudden burst of energy, and they took that opportunity to escape from the Ruby Rats.

Only then did Jin noticed Lai Fu, the General Store Owner of Fresh Price and He Rong, the Toy Model Shop owner who were amongst the few cultivators covering the rear for the civilians. "Boss Jin! When I saw that big panda at the distant! I know that this light footed feeling was from you! Damn! I did not know you are that powerful!" Lai Fu praised as he ran towards Jin.

"Thank you guys for helping the passers-by. I came out as soon as I heard the ruckus. Is there anyone else that needs help?" Jin asked as he now held his staff forward and unleash a gale of wind that pushed the Ruby Rats away from the civilians. 

"I do not think so. Ke Ru and her Wacdonalds team aided the innocents out of the district from the other end. She updated me via Mechat voice message that there seemed to be more of the fighting going on at our side than hers." He Rong informed Jin who handed him a bottle of chi potion to drink and recuperate.

"Yeah, I heard the sirens at the other end of the district, the police should be reinforcing that part too." Lai Fu added as he assisted Jin by unleashing a Chi shark silhouette from a distance, causing some of the Ruby Rats to stagger from it.

"I see, return to the dungeon supplier store, there will be medical aid for you guys there and round up any potential survivors along the way too." Jin walked in front of them.

"Fine, Dungeon Supplier Jin. If you want a fight, we will be happy to provide you one!" One of the Ruby Rat gang leaders shouted at him as he beckoned his forces to him.

"Heh, how can we leave you alone? This is our district, after all." He Rong said as he raised his sword up, but then Lai Fu smacked his head with his two handed sword.

"Stupid! What grade are you at? You think you can handle them?! You will only slow Jin down!" Lai Fu lectured his friend as he began to drag He Rong with him.

"What?! And you want to leave Jin alone against these many Ruby Rat gangsters? You sure you do not want him to court death?!" He Rong replied with angst, but Lai Fu told him to look around him.

He complied and saw that there were gang members not just at the main street but on the roofs and alleys too. While it was not clear, Lai Fu could feel the presence of multiple gangs appearing right in front of Jin.

"Go, retreat. I can handle this, I just have to endure until the police arrive." Jin spoke in a confident voice. Lai Fu understood and grabbed He Rong with him. While he appeared brave in appearance, his heart was trembling with horror. He did not know whether those gangs were there to aid Jin or to harm him, but there was one definite conclusion.

He would not get out alive if he stayed with Jin.

"I am sorry that we are unable to help you with our current strength. Boss Jin, best of luck." Lai Fu whispered while making sure that there were no other survivors within the vicinity. All that was left on the Tiangong district was Jin and the rest of the gangs.

"System, make sure that nobody, not even the trainees, are granted access outside until the whole situation died down. It is too dangerous when they do not have combat experience and especially now when it's my responsibility to take care of them." Jin requested, and the System said it had already denied exit for any who had entered.

"Looks like there is one Panda that is not going back to the zoo." A grating voice echoed from behind the Ruby Rats, and Jin saw the familiar face with that trashy sense of fashion.

"Ong…." Jin mumbled his name as he clenched tight on his staff.

"You can forget about the police coming to aid you. We've barricaded the district with our men, and all four corners of Tiangong Shopping District have been blocked off by the various gangs. Do you like how fast we act upon you?" Ong boasted with some dramatic actions. He was unsure if it was because he had been killed by him, but he somehow felt a bit of pressure from Jin making him visibly sweat a little.

"Various gangs?" Only after Jin released his Maqi after Lai Fu had entered the store did he notice that there were varying chi signatures coming from those surrounding him.

"Indeed. Our bosses have deemed this place as a prime location for our new establishment. The Prosperous Pigs, Deranged Dogs and Raunchy Roosters are here to help us evict your asses off our future property." Ong happily announced the names of the triads out as a show for the other leaders from other triads. Each time he emphasised their name, the members of the gangs shouted out their names proudly.

While Ong himself regarded it as stupid to give out that much information, he had to do so to appease the pride of the people who had come to help. Besides, with all that manpower, Jin was as good as a dead man walking.

"So that means you guys will not stop with just destroying my shop. You will damage other people's livelihoods as well?!" Jin shouted, and his reply came in the form of someone from the top spitting on him. Of course, Jin evaded it with just a step away.

"What can you do? The police won't be able to interfere if we apply sufficient pressure on them." Ong replied as he walked towards the brat that killed him.

"Did you ever expect to see me again, you little punk? I've spent a lot of time preparing to get my revenge on you bastard." Ong stared at Jin at close proximity and even revealed his newly advanced cultivation, but Jin did not flinch a single bit. After which, Ong withdrew back slowly with and walk away with his back towards Jin.

"But you know… I wouldn't want to hog all the fun for myself. Boys, enjoy!!!" The moment he finished his sentence, the Ruby Rats charged right in front, but the gangs at the top did not step in yet.

"Boss Chen Xun said that we are here to show strength and only to offer assistance when things are dire." One of the Deranged Dog's leader informed the leader of the Prosperous Pigs who had come forth.

"Heh, looks like both our bosses think alike. Why interfere in something so needless?" The leader of Prosperous Pigs grinned. "But I wonder why the Raunchy Roosters are not here yet."

"Isn't the gang opposite of us at the roofs, the Raunchy Roosters?" The Deranged Dog's leader squinted his eyes a bit and realised that there was someone holding onto what appeared to be the Raunchy Rooster's gang leader over the roof railings.

"Do not think the tigers are not aware of what you guys are plotting." Ku Wai wet his lips with his tongue and threw the fatally injured leader of the Raunchy Roosters across the main street and towards the opposite roof.

The entire gang of Raunchy Roosters had been quietly subdued by the Three Eyed Tigers when Ong was talking.
