The rapid development of the underworld in Dawu Country was extremely important for discovering the concept of "overseas". As a pioneer of the new era, Zhang San did not leave his name on this path. After all, it was the underworld.
But in this matter, Zhang San deeply felt a kind of sadness.
As the saying goes, a weak country has no diplomacy. The weak underworld is actually the same, with no qualifications to talk at all.
Independent killers like himself were lacking in just a few things to dominate their country's killer industry, not to mention true underworld organizations like Black Heaven Gate.
When Dawu Country's underworld "invaded", the competitive pressure came almost entirely from peers within the country. As for the underworld of that country...
I'm sorry, neither Black Heaven Gate nor Dark Building paid any attention to those "little gangsters" at all. After all, even the white way of that country, after Black Heaven Gate bribed the government, found an auspicious day, and easily killed them all, let alone the underworld. Maybe they didn't even have the respect to give them an auspicious day.
Zhang San heard that since Black Heaven Gate came, the largest underworld organization in that small country immediately became a vassal of Black Heaven Gate, and the leaders of the organization directly became fawning little bosses.
Then, due to success in such a small country, underworld organizations within Dawu Country were boiling! They frantically expanded, recklessly invested, and quickly spread their influence from Dawu Country to all surrounding countries.
Relying on Dawu Country’s powerful deterrence and their own strong strength and financial resources, in other small countries, whether the underworld or the white way, either perished or attached, there was no third choice. Thus, the development of Dawu Country's underworld came to a height unseen in hundreds of years.
But after all, they are the underworld!
All this made the then 18-year-old Zhang San clearly understand one thing.
Just as Master Zhang San once said, "This is an era of dog eat dog."
Zhang San had also thought about becoming one of those "underworld businessmen" who eat people, but unfortunately he was unlucky and ultimately did not succeed, and did not even get started before it was over.
Everyone hates underworld businessmen, but everyone wants to become underworld businessmen.
We live in such an "interesting" world.
But since I couldn't become the “person who eats people”, then make myself stronger!
At least, don't become the one who gets eaten.
So during that time, Zhang San was extremely hardworking, and his martial arts and qinggong improved very quickly. In addition, Zhang San also went to learn all kinds of skills to ensure the stability of his career, while working hard to make money and ensure his and his master's life after his master retired.
This was Zhang San's first time bringing huge leapfrog development to the killer industry as an unnamed underworld hero.
As mentioned earlier, Zhang San's life brought two major leapfrog developments to the killer industry.
As for the second time, it will have to wait until later, because... Zhang San still has a very important thing to do.
...
...
In Baiyun County, Xiaoyun County, a shabby painting and calligraphy shop.
Zhang San slowly woke up from his sleep. Recently, Zhang San often dreamed and recalled the years when he was abroad ten years ago. During that time, he almost became the underworld eldest brother of a generation, or even an underworld tycoon.
As for why he had been having such dreams recently, Zhang San believed the most reasonable reason was that he had missed the fifty taels of the fisherman.
It was estimated that someone else would take advantage of that. I don't know which lucky guy it would be, after all, that old Wang didn't have any martial arts at all.
After such a sigh, Zhang San returned to reality. After all, he still had to make a living, so Zhang San got up and put on makeup.
That’s right, makeup.
In a moment, a bookstore owner with delicate features, pale complexion, wearing a tattered white shirt, opened the door of the painting and calligraphy shop. Neighbors all knew that the boss of this painting and calligraphy shop was called Zhang San, a poor scholar with no strength to truss a chicken. Because the painting and calligraphy shop had little business, he often went to other counties to buy some paintings.
However, who could have imagined that this delicate, even handsome painting and calligraphy shop owner was the number one killer on the most wanted list?
The reason why Zhang San disguised himself was that although the painting and calligraphy shop was a very good identity cover, as an extremely cautious killer, how could he reveal his true appearance to others?
So Zhang San wears makeup for business except when wearing a human skin mask during tasks.
By the way, for occupational safety, Zhang San is a master of disguise techniques.
At that time, in order to learn disguise techniques, Zhang San specially went to Huyu Country, a small country south of Dawu Country, to learn a kind of disguise technique called "beautification" from a mysterious organization there called Anchor Hall.
This disguise technique originating from that small country’s Anchor Hall was almost flawless after disguising. If there was any disadvantage, it was that this beautification technique could only beautify a person's appearance, not uglify it.
This led to Zhang San wanting to disguise himself as ugly to be less conspicuous, but unfortunately the “beautification disguise technique” could not achieve this.
But there were also advantages to this delicate appearance, in that it was more in line with most people's perception of scholars.
There were also disadvantages, however, in that the neighbor aunties often came to introduce matches to Zhang San, which greatly troubled Zhang San.
Come on! How could such a cautious killer like me possibly find a wife to live with every day? What if she discovered my secret?!
In Zhang San's eyes, women would only affect the speed with which he drew his sword, women would only affect his steady career, women would only be stumbling blocks on his path to wealth.
Therefore, by the way, for occupational safety, Zhang San was unmarried.
So, with makeup on, Zhang San sat in the painting and calligraphy shop, waiting for business that was unlikely to come.
Why?
Of course, because all the paintings in the painting and calligraphy shop were painted by himself. After all, it was just identity cover, so costs had to be saved, right? Although this led to extremely average product quality and almost no customers.
...
...
On this day, July 3rd, Zhang San was in an especially low mood.
Maintaining an ordinary mentality is very important for a cautious killer.
But even someone like Zhang San couldn't help feeling lost on two days every year. Because in the 365 days of the year, Zhang San only kept these two days in mind.
One day was June 16th, which was his master's memorial day.
The other day was today, July 3rd, which was the day Zhang San became an orphan overnight at the age of eight.
July 3rd is really an unlucky day.
Zhang San often sighed like this.
On the same morning, two customers came to the painting and calligraphy shop, and Zhang San talked with them for a while.
Then Zhang San asked himself a question.
In my life, I, Zhang San, have witnessed with my own eyes an immortal descending to earth and beating the leader of the underworld gang to death with a fishing rod.
I have also seen my master who had reached the stage of martial arts mastery, choked to death by a chicken bone.
Did these two things already sound ridiculous enough to others?
But now Zhang San suspected that he might have encountered one of the top three ridiculous events in his life.
Zhang San carefully looked at the old man in yellow in front of him, and a child in black, Zhang San bowed his head and asked the child in a somewhat uncertain tone: "Are you... going to apprentice me as your master?!"
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years."

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
fe full of thrilling battles, ultimately sacrificing himself to protect his homeland and its people. Unexpectedly, he was reborn into his youth, where he encountered the campus ice queen, Ye Miyue, now working as a masseuse at his family's martial arts school. "How long have you been doing this?" "I-it's my first time..." the campus belle murmured, her head bowed. Wang Xian remembered clearly that back then, although Ye Miyue had not yet awakened her martial arts talent, her outstanding academic performance, breathtaking beauty, and icy demeanor had made her the moon goddess of every boy in school. He was no exception. In his previous life, they had no connection, never imagining they would meet under such circumstances. Sadly, today the city was attacked by an S-class beast, the 'Wind King Falcon,' destroying nearly half of the city streets. Ye Miyue had died on her way home during this disaster. Now, given a second chance, facing the campus goddess of his youth, Wang Xian resolutely decided to extend her session! And so. "My hands are tired..." the blushing campus belle whispered, relieved. Wang Xian pointed to her slender calves and said, "Who said only hands can massage? There are feet too!" "Extend the session, continue!"
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
