"Scared off? We are Hongmen! What kind of joke is this, brother? Hurry up and bring your Qing Gang people to meet me! Ye Tong definitely won't just launch a single surprise attack; he will take this opportunity to launch an all-out assault on us!"
Xiang Nanyuan said nervously, but I replied, "No, actually Ye Tong's orders were for me to act as the second team to join you in battle, while he brings the North Hongmen army to finish us off."
"What! Lu Yan! What the hell do you mean? Do you think that by helping Ye Tong eliminate me, you'll be fine? Let me tell you! That's impossible! Ye Tong will never allow you to live in this world! He will choose his own people to oversee Qing Gang and let it self-destruct, step by step leading to its decline, allowing North Hongmen to dominate!"
After hearing my words, Xiang Nanyuan became extremely agitated. I could guess that his heart was racing.
"Come on, don't fool me. I know exactly how much strength you Nan Hongmen have left. Even if we combine forces, it won't change the grim outcome unless we can launch a surprise attack on Ye Tong! Otherwise, there’s no chance for a comeback!"
I sneered as I spoke. Xiang Nanyuan was momentarily taken aback and asked, "What do you mean? Just say it!"
"Does North Hongmen have hidden strength? Do you?"
I inquired of Xiang Nanyuan and then said, "You need to immediately gather all your forces into three groups: one group will fight with me head-on, one will retreat, and one will hide. When North Hongmen pursues you, you can launch a pincer attack from both sides! This is your only chance to fight back!"
Xiang Nanyuan fell silent after hearing this. I was actually worried about whether he still had the organizational capability now that half of his senior personnel were dead. The orders from above couldn’t be issued at all, and it would take time to gather the next layer of contacts.
"Alright! You make sense! Ye Tong will definitely join forces with you. At that time, we can execute a pincer attack!" Xiang Nanyuan said.
But I just smiled. A pincer attack? What kind of person is Ye Tong? Would he give me that opportunity?
If nothing unexpected happens, Ye Tong knows exactly what is happening here and what is happening with Lu Xian. He won’t join forces with me until he sees me severely weaken Qing Gang!
Xiang Nanyuan wouldn’t be unaware of this, but he didn’t dare say it; he was afraid I would feel sorry for Qing Gang and abandon this plan.
"Then it's settled. You send someone now; just send some useless fish and shrimp. I’ll go up and fight with your people while you take your elite Nan Hongmen members and start retreating, splitting off a portion to ambush."
After I finished speaking, I hung up the phone. In fact, tonight Qing Gang should also be involved in this great battle. My purpose in coming to Qing Gang was precisely to annihilate this organization!
After hanging up the phone, I dialed Zheng Yu's number again and instructed him to inform the police to closely monitor every move of Nan Hongmen. I needed to know where they went at all times.
Then I arrived at the Wanqing Group headquarters. At this moment, the people from Qing Gang had already gathered here voluntarily.
"What should we do, Elder Chen? This is about to start!"
"Yes, Elder Chen! What do we do now? Yan Shao Ye isn't here yet! He’s not answering his phone either!"
As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, I could hear chaos in the conference room. Right now, Nan Hongmen was in a state of panic; how could Qing Gang be any different? Each of them knew they would become cannon fodder.
"What should we do? What else can we do? Of course we have to help North Hongmen fight this battle! Ye Tong just called me; he said he would bring his men soon! Let’s go hit Nan Hongmen hard and prevent them from escaping! Ye Tong said that if we succeed in this fight, each of you will receive rewards! You might even be promoted to elders of North Hongmen!"
Elder Chen's voice came from inside the conference room. Listening from outside made me laugh; come on, does he really think these people are fools? Can these two sentences of verbal promises make them fight desperately?
"No way! I'm not fighting this battle! Wealth and glory must come with life to enjoy them! How old am I now? I just want a peaceful night! I can't participate in this battle!"
"Yes! What kind of society are we in? And to launch such an attack? It's ridiculous! I can't fight! I'm not going to fight!"
In an instant, the conference room descended into chaos. Most people were shouting that this battle shouldn't happen, while others insisted that this matter must wait for me to take charge. Elder Chen had no right to decide such a significant issue for the Qing Gang.
Hearing this, I pushed the door open and walked into the conference room.
"Yan Shao Ye! Yan Shao Ye, you finally arrived! What are we going to do now?"
"Yes, Yan Shao Ye! What should we do? Are we really going to go to war?"
In that moment, all eyes in the conference room turned to me, including Elder Chen's.
"Of course we're going to fight! Do you really need Yan Shao Ye to say it? He is also one of us from Ye Tong! Yan Shao Ye! You tell us! In this situation, are we fighting or not?"
Elder Chen slammed his hand on the table and pointed at me, his authority momentarily restored as everyone fell silent and looked at me.
I smiled at Elder Chen; he was truly a dog of Ye Tong!
"You're right," he said.
I nodded and walked step by step toward him. Satisfied with my approach, Elder Chen revealed a hint of a smile. Then I reached his side and spoke.
"Elder Chen, let's hold off on discussing whether or not to fight for now. Do you remember a few days ago when you promised me that you would capture Lu Xian? You said that only after I personally killed Lu Xian could I inherit the position of gang leader. But it's been so long, and you haven't captured him yet. Now that the situation in Qing Gang is so chaotic, with no gang leader in sight, what do you think we should do about this?"
I smiled as I looked at Elder Chen, who was momentarily taken aback by my words.
"Yan Shao Ye, discussing this now isn't important, is it? The most pressing issue is the North Hongmen situation, isn't it? As for the position of gang leader in Qing Gang? I think you might be too inexperienced; this matter is too significant and should be handled by our council of elders. Don't you agree?"
Elder Chen shot me a glance filled with arrogance. Even after many opposed his earlier call for action, he still believed he controlled more than ten percent of Qing Gang's power and influence.
"I disagree."
I revealed a calm smile.
"If that's the case, then let everyone speak!"
Elder Chen had just begun to respond when I plunged a sharp knife into his chest!
Today was crucial; I had never intended to let him live to influence my decisions. Moreover, since Ye Tong had caught me off guard, how could I allow any division of power among my subordinates?
Today, Qing Gang must be under my sole command!
"What? What are you doing? You just questioned the leader's capabilities and attempted to usurp power from him! I'm merely enforcing family law!"
I smiled as I watched Elder Chen's eyes widen in shock.
"You! You!"
With a swift motion, I pulled out the knife and plunged it back in. The room fell silent, the sound of the blade piercing flesh echoing in the stillness.
"Do you have anything else to say?"
The conference room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, all eyes fixed on me. I, Chen the Elder, opened my mouth and blood gushed forth, dripping onto my hands.
"Enough talk. Just die."
I calmly declared as I delivered another fatal blow to Chen the Elder, pushing him to the ground. I wiped the blood from my hands onto the trembling Second Elder beside him. I knew he was loyal to Chen the Elder.
"You all witnessed what happened today. If it were any other time, it might be different, but at this critical moment, who dares question my authority? This is a path leading to everyone's doom, and I cannot tolerate it."
I smiled calmly; sometimes, tranquility is more intimidating than rage.
"Indeed! This cannot be tolerated! He deserves to die! He deserves it!"
The Second Elder immediately voiced his agreement, fully aware that he was aligned with Chen the Elder and fearing that I might turn my wrath on him next.
Soon, everyone expressed their support, declaring that Chen the Elder deserved his fate. No one was willing to risk their lives for someone already dead. This was a harsh reality: when someone falls from power, they are quickly forgotten.
"Very well then, regarding today's matters with North Hongmen, I will be in charge. Do any of you have objections?"
I scanned the room for dissenters. After a moment of silence, no one dared to voice any disagreement; everyone nodded in agreement to follow my orders.
In truth, I was doing this for everyone's benefit. The threat from North Hongmen was evident. Once this matter was settled, if anyone wished to retire from Qing Gang and live peacefully, I would fully support that. Ye Tong would likely agree as well and might even generously offer some bonuses. However, if anyone dared to flee at such a critical moment, do you know what that would mean?
It would mean you would face endless pursuit from North Hongmen!
I raised my voice sharply; everyone felt the weight of my words. These individuals were wealthy and powerful; telling them about rewards after this battle would not sway them. They needed to understand that winning this fight was their only path to survival for them to commit fully.
"Yan Shao! Rest assured, we will obey! Whatever you command us to do, we will do!"
"Yes! Exactly! Don’t worry, Yan Shao! Although I've aged, I still have a fighting spirit! I will definitely follow your lead and won’t embarrass you!"
In an instant, those eager to flatter began voicing their support. One person spoke up, and soon everyone followed suit. Though they were reluctant to engage in this conflict, they had no choice—just like me; despite my aversion to fighting, I could not avoid it.
Since there was no choice but to fight, we must strive to win this battle! We cannot afford to be losers!
