Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo'

Chapter 862 - 508: Who Is the Boat Master

Yin Si Niang reminded Li Banfeng: "If you have a vendetta with the Ferry Gang, you’d better deal with them outside. The boss of this black market is not easy to handle either; causing trouble on his turf might get you into trouble."

Li Banfeng laughed: "I haven’t met the boss of this black market yet; it’s a good chance to make friends with him."

Yin Si Niang was very nervous, sweat streaming down her cheeks: "Boss, people of your status fighting can shake the heavens and earth. Don’t drag a little ant like me into it. Just thinking about how you guys fight scares me to death."

Li Banfeng also reminded her: "Being scared is fine, but no wetting your pants. If you must wet your pants, let me know in advance."

"If I could control it in advance, I’d..." Yin Si Niang snorted as her phone buzzed.

She received a message and quickly told Li Banfeng: "Boss, the Boat Master is here; they’ll be up soon. You should wait downstairs."

"Why go downstairs? I’ll just hide here." Li Banfeng grinned, stood in the corner of the private room, and the light from the movie screen projected into the room, casting shadows that concealed Li Banfeng.

Yin Si Niang said: "Oh dear, that’s hardly hiding. Even kids playing hide-and-seek do better than this."

Li Banfeng said: "I know illusion techniques; they definitely won’t find me."

Yin Si Niang was terrified: "But the Boat Master’s cultivation level is high. What use is an illusion technique? I’m telling you, if I wet myself in fright, don’t blame me."

Li Banfeng glared: "If you dare to wet yourself, I’ll sew your mouth shut!"

"Sewing my mouth won’t help; it’s not coming out of my mouth." Yin Si Niang shivered as she waited for the Boat Master to arrive, and soon there was a knock on the private room door.

Yin Si Niang composed herself and opened the door.

Three men stood at the door, wearing vests and bamboo hats, the hats were large and pulled low, with masks underneath.

This wasn’t unusual; every time they delivered goods, Ferry Gang dressed like this, so it wasn’t evident whether the Boat Master was among them just by their appearance.

The man in the middle didn’t move, signaling for the others to deliver the goods.

The man on the left handed over a stack of contract books to Yin Si Niang, while the man on the right gave her a shipping list.

Yin Si Niang first checked the shipping list, then inspected each contract book.

They delivered a total of eight Lost Souls, each a superior grade.

Seeing the quality and price of these Lost Souls, and the man in the middle never moving, Yin Si Niang judged that he was likely the Boat Master.

By rules, she couldn’t say much; with prices on the shipping list, she couldn’t bargain either.

Of course, wholesale prices were cheaper than retail; Yin Si Niang earned from this margin, handing over ten suitcases of cash, verified by a snack seller in between, the other party counted accurately and left with the money.

After the Ferry Gang and snack seller left, Yin Si Niang exhaled deeply and told Li Banfeng in the corner: "Boss, you do have skills. They couldn’t even spot you.

They’ve all gone. You see clearly, don’t you? I suspect the one in the middle was the Boat Master. Do you think... Boss, are you there? Boss?"

Yin Si Niang felt as if there was someone in the shadow, but as she approached, she realized there was nothing.

This boss truly is a master; when did he leave?

Where did he go?

The Boat Master and his two companions were in an off-road vehicle, driving on the highway outside Yuezhou City.

One man was driving, another in the back seat watching over the cash, and the Boat Master was in the passenger seat, browsing his phone.

At four in the morning, there weren’t many cars on the highway, the off-road vehicle was originally driving smoothly, when suddenly a figure flashed in front.

The driver quickly slammed the brakes: "What the hell was that..."

Bam! Blood and gore splattered over the windshield.

The driver exploded into flesh and blood.

The Boat Master hurriedly grabbed the wheel, steadying the car. The man in the back seat asked: "Boss, who was that just now..."

Bam!

The man in the back seat also exploded.

The Boat Master didn’t turn to look.

He knew what "Passing Glance" meant.

The man in the back seat had seen the other party, which meant it was already too late.

Li Banfeng was right next to the off-road vehicle, walking in the green belt of the highway.

He had killed two of the Boat Master’s men; what would he do next?

Next, he was going to kill the Boat Master.

If he could capture the Boat Master alive and uncover the secrets of the Ferry Gang, that would be good. But if he couldn’t, Li Banfeng would kill him without hesitation.

Li Banfeng wasn’t afraid of losing leads; there were always leads, but an enemy’s life is singular. Compared to leads, Li Banfeng valued an enemy’s life more, so he had to take their lives first.

He again appeared beside the Boat Master’s car; as the Boat Master was watching the road, he naturally saw Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng’s figure vanished in an instant, and the Boat Master stopped the car, craning his head out the window, trying to trace Li Banfeng’s figure, but failed.

The other party’s movements were too fast, the Boat Master sensed, Li Banfeng’s gaze was focused on him, he might make him explode at any moment.

His guess was right, Li Banfeng’s gaze was indeed on him, and where his gaze concentrated, Li Banfeng now wanted to blow him up.

The Boat Master suddenly withdrew his head into the car, Li Banfeng raised his brow, activating the technique.

Buzz!

Bam!

Exploded.

The entire vehicle blew up.

Li Banfeng paused for a moment, not quite understanding the situation before him.

The power of "Passing Glance" was indeed remarkable, but it was limited to living beings.
