Just like that, Li Fan was sent to the capital where the headquarters of the Dragon Hall was located!
The headquarters of the Dragon Hall was not a place that anyone could come to. Even those who had a good relationship with the Dragon Hall had never been to this place.
But now, with the identity of an enemy, Li Fan entered the door of the Dragon Hall so openly and was even entertained with good food and drinks!
"Dong Ye, is it appropriate for you to bring an enemy into the headquarters?"
There were many elders in the Dragon Hall. These people sat in a circle in the main hall, criticizing Dong Ye and expressing their opinions.
The Dragon Hall used the British parliamentary system. The entire Elder Hall had a total of 50 people and a Great Elder. He alone had nine votes and played a very decisive role.
"This is the only choice."
Dong Ye stood in the middle of the hall and was watched by the elders without a change in expression.
Feng Xing stood not far behind him. Even in the Dragon Hall, he still acted as Dong Ye's bodyguard.
"Our forces have already been uprooted in A City. Even if we parachuted the elites of the Dragonians over, you all have seen the outcome. Right now, the Red Dragon Society is strong and powerful. Li Fan's Phenomenal Escort Agency has too many experts. It is basically impossible for us to take back A City. "
"Dong Ye, you are boosting the morale of others and diminishing your own!"
An elder couldn't help but reprimand, "If this was in ancient times, you would have been charged with disturbing the morale of the army and skinned alive!"
"Then we really have to thank the rapid progress of society."
Dong Ye clasped his hands together and sincerely expressed his thanks.
"Dong Ye, don't be glib here! Put away your act! "
Another elder reprimanded, "Our Dragon Hall has a solid foundation in China and has a good reputation. How can we let a small Red Dragon Society shit on our heads! Moreover, the disadvantages in A City are all because of your poor command! "
Feng Xing frowned. This elder's words were a bit too much.
"As a branch leader, you can't even deal with a small Red Dragon Society and even lost a Twelve Saints!"
The elder vented his dissatisfaction, "This is simply absurd! I'm starting to doubt your abilities! "
Dong Ye had a good temper and a good upbringing. He stood there without getting angry. Instead, he slowly said, "Victory and defeat are common for soldiers. Even I can't be perfect. However, even if you give me another group of people, I don't have the confidence to take down City A. If the elders have a candidate, please feel free to choose one to replace me. "
"Dong Ye, don't be too arrogant! You're not the only one who can be used in Dragon Hall! "
"I've never said that. I'll let you choose one."
Dong Ye chuckled and said, "If you need, I can leave this position."
"We … didn't let you go either."
Dong Ye's position in the Dragon Hall was too important. He was the descendant of Liu Jinchan, and countless people in the martial arts world admired him. The twelve Saints of the Dragon Hall also followed his lead. If he left, the 12 Sages of the Dragon Hall would probably leave with him.
Without the Twelve Sages of the Dragon Hall, half of the Dragon Hall would collapse! The underworld forces, without the help of the Jianghu, would not be able to go far in China, a place with crouching tigers and hidden dragons.
"Then elders, what's the meaning of keeping me here?"
Dong Ye had a smile on his face.
"This Li Fan must be executed!"
An elder could not help but roar, "If we don't execute him, where will our face be! The honor of the Dragon Hall cannot be humiliated! "
"I'm afraid not."
Dong Ye shook his head, "I've made an agreement with Li Fan. If he comes here, I'll guarantee his safety."
"Dong Ye, is Dragon Hall a place where you have the final say?"
The elder glared at Dong Ye, "And you actually want to protect an enemy. What are your intentions?"
"That's right. What are you planning?"
"Could it be that you've colluded with this Li Fan?"
"I knew it. You have a disloyal heart!"
These elders criticized Dong Ye one after another. Dong Ye was not in a hurry. He waited for them to finish speaking.
Just when it was noisy, the Great Elder took out a small hammer and fiercely knocked on the table twice.
Only then did these elders quiet down. The Great Elder opened his mouth.
"Dong Ye, say it. What's your plan?"
"This Li Fan, no matter what, he's a Jianghu person."
Dong Ye nodded his head and spoke his mind, "I can make an agreement with him. We'll decide the outcome with a martial arts competition. If he wins, then the Red Dragon Society will be disbanded. They will unconditionally release Yang Ruining. Moreover, Li Fan will bear the crime of killing the eight elders and surrender himself to the prison. Moreover, we will deal with Liu Xinnan. All of her Liu family's shares will be handed over to our Dragon Hall. "
This condition is indeed a bit tempting.
"Then, what if he wins?"
"The rule of the Jianghu is to unconditionally release him."
Dong Ye's words caused the elders present to discuss.
Obviously, this condition is a bit unacceptable to them.
"Isn't it better to directly kill him?"
"Yeah, why do we need to negotiate with this guy!"
"That's right. Since when does our Dragon Hall need to look at other people's eyes!"
Dong Ye shrugged his shoulders, "This is my only way. If you don't accept it, then I can only escort Li Fan out of Dragon Hall."
"What did you say?"
"Dong Ye, are you crazy?"
"Unreasonable! Unreasonable! This man betrayed Dragon Hall! Betrayed our oath! "
"Silence!"
The Great Elder knocked the small hammer again, making the entire audience quiet down.
"Dong Ye, the referendum is about to be held. Do you have anything else to say?"
"Yeah, I do want to say a few words."
Dong Ye stood in the hall and loudly said, "Everyone, open your eyes wide and look at this society. The times have changed. We are now legal businessmen! What do you want to do? Continue to send people out every day to kill those unarmed civilians? Go and use swords and guns to conquer your territory? In this era, force belongs to Jianghu. Only riches belong to us. "
His words made the elders present unable to refute.
"Li Fan is a Jianghu person. He has the rules of Jianghu! Do you think killing Li Fan will solve the problem perfectly? No, this will only bring endless trouble to our Dragon Hall! Elders present, you are already old. Do you still want to go out and fight with others? No, no, no, of course not. You never fight. You just sit at home and enjoy the happiness of a family while collecting money, right? "
Everyone was speechless.
"If you want to cause trouble, okay, you can personally go and fight with these Wulin people. If you want to make money, then leave it to me. I will make things end as soon as possible. Those who need to make money, continue to make money. Well, everyone, it's time for you to choose. "
