Chapter 222 Yu Family’s Descenden (1/2)

Xiao Bing had never seen through Miyamoto Shinji’s capacity. But his intuition told him that Miyamoto Shinji might not be Lord Long’s equal. However, he found this man unfathomable when he took a closer look. That was why it was not easy to gauge him.

Xiao Bing nodded his head and said, “If Mr. Miyamoto can handle Lord Long, then our chance of winning can be increased to 40% or even 50%.”

Xiao Bing stood up and smiled, “I haven’t been back for days and I assume that Ye Zi must be worried. Master Hou, just call me if you need my service. But I suggest you increase your men and be more vigilant. From what I know of Lord Long, he’s never been a patient man. This loss is significant to him. I’m sure he will strike back like a deranged man.”

Master Hou nodded and was about to speak when the phone rang. He walked to it and answered it. His demeanour turned respectful when he heard the voice on the other end. His features first showed surprise, followed by a tad of complexity, then mirth. Then he hanged up turned to Xiao Bing and Mu Tingchuan with glittering eyes.

They could tell that Master Hou had good news to announce but wondered what it could be because Master Hou had always been a person who was good at hiding his true feelings.

Xiao Bing grinned and said, “Master Hou, I assume it’s some good news.”

“Good news for all of us. Someone from the provincial government called me and warned me that the government has recently started a campaign of eliminating underground gangs. They asked me to stop all work at hand immediately or none of them will be able to ensure my safety.”

Mu Tingchuan grinned and said, “Master Hou, why did you sound so happy… I get it…”

Mu Tingchuan took a deep breath and clapped his hands, “It’s good news indeed. They said they will eliminate this country’s underground forces, not this province’s? It means that every nook and cranny of this country will be affected. If that’s the case, I’m sure that the Long Family will think twice before they decide to do anything. After all, the government can crush him and his family with ease, however mighty he is. So we’ll have opportunity to take a breather.”

“Indeed.” Master Hou sighed, “I was worrying about how to deal with Lord Long’s crazy vengeance. I didn’t expect the government to happen to do me such a favor. Looks like the gods are on our side.”

Xiao Bing could not help sighing either. Though currently Lord Long seemed unstoppable, there was still a small chance for Master Hou to win. Because it seemed that the god truly favored him more. Now Jiang Zihou had united the underground world in Hei Province except for City H’s. He had not consolidated what he had just conquered yet. If he decided to fight Lord Long now, the chances for his to win would be rather small. But if given time, he would make his property truly his because his influence in the Hei Province was quite considerable.

But Xiao Bing thought that maybe they could do more than that. The longer he contemplated, the more reasonable he found it was. He spoke directly, “Master Hou, indeed it is a perfect opportunity. But won’t it be a pity if we just use it to recover our strength?”

Jiang Zihou and Mu Tingchuan both cast him a glance of confusion. Xiao Bing smiled and said,” “Lord Long is an arrogant and arbitrary man. Men like him consider reputation the most important. Why don’t we take advantage of it? Let him take the rest while we are harvesting the fruit he has been planting for us…”

Jiang Zihou suddenly realized. “We should work out a plan for this, ” he said hurriedly.

Xiao Bing grinned, “You can think about it first. I’d better go home now. I promised to have dinner with my girlfriend.”

“The young miss of the Ye family…” Jiang Zihou smiled, “You are a lucky guy. Ye Xiaoxi is the most beautiful and wealthiest woman in Jiang City. Go then. I’ll discuss it with Tingchuan first and with you later.”

After Xiao Bing took his leave, Jiang Zihou exchanged looks with Mu Tingchuan. “This Xiao Bing is a powerful master who knows how to win people’s hearts. However, the scariest part is that he can use whatever can be used to change the situation. Indeed he’s no ordinary man,” Jiang Zihou sighed.

Mu Tingchuan said, “I have always thought the same. That’s why I tried to convince you… But like you said, we should not deal with the internal enemy at this urgent time. The Long family is quite a powerful house. The chances for us to defeat them is still nearly none even if we have Xiao Bing’s help.”

Jiang Zihou grinned, “You’ve misunderstood me. Though Xiao Bing is very young and he’s not as mighty as Lord Long, he’s much more unfathomable.”

Mu Tingchuan was nonplussed, “If that’s case, isn’t he a threat to us?”

“Indeed he’s a threat…But I’ve always got this feeling that he doesn’t belong to the underground world. He belongs to a realm that is beyond our wildest imagination. Let’s just stopping talking about him. Our priority at the moment is to come up with a plan that can bring Lord Long another great loss.”
