The actions of Lu Qingshan, Shi Jian, and Han Sanqiang could almost be described with the words "irresistible force".
Although the underworld in Anrong City was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, no one wanted to face the assassination of the Tangmen assassins. Therefore, most of them chose to protect themselves and temporarily joined Lu Qingshan's camp.
By that night, Lu Qingshan and the others had taken over nearly two-thirds of Wolong Hall and Wuyi Hall's territory. They could indeed be described as unstoppable.
But at night, they finally encountered a tough obstacle —
The people of Jianghu had interfered!
The people of Qingcheng Sect struck again.
The underworld was also a part of Jianghu, but it was only at the bottom of Jianghu. The real people of Jianghu were the sects and gangs that could be listed in the Jianghu register.
In a sense, even the powerful Wolong Hall could not be considered a real gang. In Pingchuan Province, only the famous sects such as Tangmen, Emei Sect, and Qingcheng Sect could be considered real Jianghu sects.
Of course, the Elder Brothers Society used to be one of the real Jianghu gangs, but now its talents had withered.
The intervention of the people of Qingcheng Sect put Lu Qingshan and the others in a difficult situation.
The strength of Lu Qingshan and the others was enough to crush many of the leaders of Wolong Hall. This was because Lu Qingshan had Wu Yingmeng, who was in the Mystic Enlightenment realm, behind him. With such a "high-end combat power," they could deter many people. Coupled with Han Sanqiang's elite underlings and Shi Jian's men, they basically did not encounter much resistance when they took over the territory of Wolong Hall and Wuyi Hall.
But the participation of Qingcheng Sect immediately changed the situation —
The situation was in a deadlock, and it even became disadvantageous to the actions of Lu Qingshan and the others.
After all, the people sent by Qingcheng Sect were at least in the Regulated Breathing realm.
Many people might think that it was no longer a situation where fists and feet ruled the world, but that was not the case. Although there were signs of guns flooding the current situation, fists and cold weapons were still the main force in the fight for power in the underworld.
The reason was simple. In any big city, once you used a gun, you would immediately become the target of public criticism!
Once you used a gun, the police would want to arrest you, and the armed police would want to encircle you because you had crossed the line of the authorities. At the same time, the people in the underworld will alienate you because you have become a thorn in the eyes of the police. At this time, not many friends in the underworld will be willing to have a relationship with you.
Therefore, the fights between gangs were still settled through fists and cold weapons.
It was not only in the mainland of Hua Xia, but also in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Although there were gunfights, these people, who were regarded as dangerous thugs by the government, would be eliminated. There was no doubt about it.
The underground forces in An Rong City still followed the unspoken rules of the Jianghu. If they didn't want to risk their lives, most of the time, they would still choose to use their fists to determine the winner and the loser.
This also meant that the bigger the fist, the bigger the territory.
Originally, Lu Qingshan and his gang were strong enough, and they also had the support of Tangmen, so things should have been unstoppable. However, the intervention of Qingcheng Sect immediately changed the situation.
In an old car purchase factory in the southern suburbs of An Rong City, Lu Qingshan and his gang were in trouble.
This was originally the territory of a small leader in Wolong Hall nicknamed "Erlong". Erlong ran this used car purchase factory and secretly controlled the territory in this area.
According to Shi Jian's information, Erlong's strength was actually inferior to Shi Jian. Whether it was his underlings or his own strength, they were all inferior to Shi Jian.
Originally, they thought that they could easily subdue this "Brother Erlong", but who knew that they would run into a snag here.
Erlong, whose real name was Li Erlong, was a little fatty in his forties. He could be said to be a "wily old fox" in Wolong Hall, because this guy was content with the status quo and never annexed other people's territory. However, the strange thing was that no one was able to annex his territory.
The searchlight illuminated the long open space, and Erlong appeared in the open space with his dozens of underlings.
"Li Erlong, do you want to go against us?" Shi Jian shouted at Li Erlong. He naturally knew Li Erlong.
"Shi Jian, I won't say any more nonsense. I'm the same as you, we both listen to others and work for others. To be honest, it doesn't matter who is the boss, as long as you don't touch my territory. " This Li Erlong was really a wily old fox. Even now, he still didn't want to offend anyone. No wonder he could live until now.
"Then we'll give you a choice. Rely on us, and we promise not to touch your territory." Lu Qingshan said to Li Erlong.
"You are Lu Qingshan – Mr. Lu, right? I've heard a lot about you. " Li Erlong actually flattered Lu Qingshan a few words, and then said, "Mr. Lu, it's not that I don't want to rely on you, but – you know, I'm not in charge here anymore."
Behind Li Erlong and the others, about twenty people walked out. These people were all wearing gray clothes, and carried long swords or long knives on their backs. At first glance, one could tell that they were real Jianghu people. In today's society, it was not easy to see these real Jianghu people, because these people usually cultivated in sects deep in the mountains, or hid in the streets, and generally did not show their faces to others. However, these Jianghu sects did not really decline. Just by looking at the mountain gates of these Jianghu sects, one could tell that they were not in decline.
For example, look at the mountain gates of Shaolin and Wudang sects, how grand they are now, perhaps they have never been in such a grand style in the past dynasties. And in Pingchuan Province, the mountain gates of Emei and Qingcheng sects had also expanded many times.
Many people said that these mountain gates expanded only because they were rich, and they made a lot of money from tourism and religious beliefs. That's right, the expansion of the mountain gates seemed to indicate that these Jianghu sects were rich.
But many people did not realize that with more money, the sects could naturally develop and grow rapidly. Money could make the devil push millstones. In this world, the development of many things was driven by money. With money, there would be fame, and naturally, more people would rush to learn martial arts, and naturally, the sects would be able to develop and grow.
Therefore, on the surface, these Jianghu sects seemed to have "fallen", but in fact, it was not so. At least, the number of their disciples must have increased many times compared to a few decades ago.
The people of Qingcheng sect showed up again.
Seeing the people of Qingcheng sect again, Qin Lang was no stranger. The reason why he acted with Lu Qingshan tonight was because he felt that there might be some resistance tonight, because the Ye family would not let them control the entire Wolong Hall and Wuyi Hall so smoothly, and hand over one of their "arms" to others.
