"I saw it with my own eyes; how could it be false? Moreover, this time, Clan Leader Li is preparing to awaken an even more powerful zombie. At that point, not only can we sweep through Huaxia Martial Arts, but we could also dominate the martial world globally. Avenge you? That would be a trivial matter. So tell me, who killed your son?" Feng Laowu said excitedly. Ever since he witnessed Li Hai Feng's strength, he regarded Li Hai Feng as a deity and held him in high esteem.
Seeing Feng Laowu speak with such conviction ignited a spark of hope in Xiao Junyong. Although Jiang Chen was immensely powerful, could there really be no one in this world capable of dealing with him? Xiao Junyong refused to believe it. Feng Laowu's words gave him a glimmer of hope. Perhaps this Corpse Refining Clan could indeed defeat Jiang Chen.
The thought of revenge made a faint smile appear on Xiao Junyong's lips.
"Then please help me make an introduction to Clan Leader Li," Xiao Junyong said, suppressing his excitement.
"Of course! We are united in this endeavor. With Clan Leader Li unifying the martial arts, our financial and manpower support will surely benefit both of us in the future," Feng Laowu replied with a meaningful smile.
"Hangzhou Underground Leader Hu Sanxiong and Hu Lao have come to congratulate us!" Suddenly, another voice called out.
"Hu Lao has arrived! Brother Xiao, let’s go welcome him," Feng Laowu said with a smile.
Hu Sanxiong arrived in a Bentley, and Feng Laowu personally opened the car door for him. As the Hangzhou Underground Leader, Hu Sanxiong controlled the Southeast Province's underground world and was immensely wealthy.
These underground forces in Huaxia often formed small groups. Feng Laowu, Xiao Junyong, and Hu Sanxiong were one such group. They maintained closer ties since they were located in different regions—one in East China, one in Central China, and one in Southwest China—without competing interests or territorial disputes, allowing them to be friends.
Hu Sanxiong was the eldest among them, so Feng Laowu and Xiao Junyong respectfully referred to him as Hu Lao.
"Hu Lao, it's been too long! We haven't seen each other for three years," Feng Laowu said with a smile.
"Indeed, it has been three years. I thought I’d take advantage of this joyous occasion to gather everyone together. Junyong is here too," Hu Sanxiong replied with a smile before casting a complex glance at Xiao Junyong.
"Hu Lao, what’s wrong?" Seeing the strange look in Hu Sanxiong's eyes directed at him, Xiao Junyong asked curiously.
The news of Hu Sanxiong's son's death was not known outside their circle; after all, it had happened during the martial arts tournament where only martial artists participated, ensuring confidentiality. Moreover, not many recognized Hu Yuan at that time; everyone’s attention was focused on Yan Xiaotian. Who would care about a young man? Thus, Hu Yuan's death did not stir any waves.
Hu Sanxiong had also specifically instructed not to make it public; hence outsiders were mostly unaware that his son had already died.
"Junyong, I heard your son was killed recently; please accept my condolences," Hu Sanxiong said.
"Hu Lao, I'm doing better now, but I will definitely avenge this," Xiao Junyong replied bitterly.
"Hu Lao, your son is still studying swordsmanship in Island Nation, right? If there's ever an opportunity, let your son recognize Brother Xiao as his godfather. With the three of us joining forces in the future within Huaxia's Underground World, we could command great influence. We could even help you reclaim the position of Underground Leader in East China. After all, East China is the most prosperous region in our Huaxia," Feng Laowu suggested. His invitation for Hu Sanxiong and Xiao Junyong was aimed at forming a united front.
