In the Black Tiger Gang's Hu Clan's conference hall, several people were currently sitting down. These people didn't look young. One of them had white hair and beard, but his spirit was very good. Moreover, he wasn't young anymore, but he still gave people the feeling of an old handsome man. One look and one would know that he was a handsome man when he was young.
This person was the Hu Clan's Patriarch, Hu Liangchen. Although the Hu Clan was a member of the Hu Clan, their clan practiced a type of dual cultivation technique. This technique was generally practiced by a man and a woman at the same time. Once the two of them practiced it, they would live and die together. Their hearts and minds were connected, making it very overbearing.
It was precisely because of this technique that the men of the Hu Clan were very handsome, and the women were very beautiful. They were all rare handsome men and beautiful women.
The Hu Clan's dual cultivation technique wasn't only useful to the Hu Clan. As long as one practiced dual cultivation with a member of the Hu Clan, no matter which clan they belonged to, they would benefit a lot. Because of this, every time the Hu Clan wanted to marry a suitable cultivator, outsiders would fight over it.
However, the Hu Clan had its own set of marriage methods. Outsiders simply couldn't do anything about it. Even if there were a few political marriages, they would be marrying into the Hu Clan. The Hu Clan wouldn't pass on their dual cultivation technique to outsiders.
It was precisely because of this that the Hu Clan's cultivators were very difficult to deal with. This was because they would generally act together as husband and wife. Whether the opponent was one person or ten people, they would always move together and wouldn't separate.
The current Patriarch of the Hu Clan, Hu Liangchen, was a Transcending Tribulation Expert. Since he was a Transcending Tribulation Expert, his wife was also a Transcending Tribulation Expert. Because of this, outsiders were very afraid of the Hu Clan.
Of course, Hu Liangchen wasn't famous for his cultivation speed. To be honest, his cultivation speed in a large clan like the Hu Clan was above average. He wasn't a top genius. Hu Liangchen was famous for his resourcefulness. He was known as the Black Tiger Gang's number one strategist. From this point, one could see how famous he was for his resourcefulness.
However, right now, the number one sage of the Black Tiger Gang was tightly frowning. He had a worried expression on his face. The reason why he had such an expression was because of Zhang Feng's recent performance.
Zhang Feng opened the mountain gate and absorbed many young experts from the Black Tiger Gang. Tie Zhantian even sent Tie Ying and the others to Zhang Feng's side. This made Hu Liangchen feel a very serious sense of crisis.
First of all, Hu Liangchen thought that even if Zhang Feng was given the power to expand the mountain gate, he would not cause any trouble. After all, he knew how much money Zhang Feng had. In his opinion, with Zhang Feng's financial resources, it was impossible to expand the mountain gate even if he wanted to.
However, he did not expect that Zhang Feng would actually have the money to expand the sect. He thought that the money was given to Zhang Feng by Tie Zhantian, so he immediately sent people to check the accounts. As long as they found that Tie Zhantian had misappropriated public funds, they would immediately remove him from his position.
However, the result made him disappointed. Not only did they fail to get hold of Tie Zhantian's weakness, they even gave him an opportunity to make trouble. This caused the Great Clans to suffer heavy losses. This was like trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it.
What made him even more worried was that he asked the Wandering Soul Gang to deal with Zhang Feng. However, there was still no news from the Wandering Soul Gang. This made him have a bad premonition.
Previously, he made an agreement with the Wandering Soul Gang to wait for Zhang Feng to participate in the First-Generation Decisive Battle before making a move against Zhang Feng. Later on, Zhang Feng came back safely and even obtained a spot in the Foreign Domain Battlefield. He thought that it was because of the Foreign Domain Battlefield that the Wandering Soul Gang didn't make a move against Zhang Feng. But later on, he found out that something was wrong. This was because the Wandering Soul Gang's people who participated in the First-Generation Decisive Battle didn't return. This was absolutely abnormal.
When Hu Liangchen received this news, his first feeling was bad. If the Wandering Soul Gang's people didn't return, then there was only one explanation, something happened to them. And the reason for this was Zhang Feng!
The Wandering Soul Gang's people must have gone to deal with Zhang Feng when something happened. In other words, Zhang Feng must have killed them.
Although he came to this conclusion, Hu Liangchen wasn't happy at all. He knew that the Wandering Soul Gang weren't reasonable people. Cooperating with the Wandering Soul Gang was like asking a tiger for its skin. Hu Liangchen was very clear about this. The Wandering Soul Gang had been looking for excuses to control him, but they were all blocked by Hu Liangchen's means.
But this time, the Wandering Soul Gang's incident wasn't good news for Hu Liangchen. The Wandering Soul Gang wouldn't let Zhang Feng go. After all, even if there was no evidence, Zhang Feng was the one who did it.
At the same time, the Wandering Soul Gang wouldn't let him go. They had been looking for excuses to control him for a long time. Now, there was no better excuse than the Wandering Soul Gang being attacked. If the Wandering Soul Gang let go of this opportunity, then they wouldn't be members of the Wandering Soul Gang.
And just as Zhao Hai thought, the Wandering Soul Gang was now pressuring him. If he didn't deal with it well, then the Wandering Soul Gang wouldn't let him go.
He was very clear about his position in the hearts of the Wandering Soul Gang. He was just a dog in the eyes of the Wandering Soul Gang, a dog that betrayed its master. Now, the Wandering Soul Gang needed this dog to bite the Black Tiger Gang and weaken them. Then they would wait for an opportunity to swallow the Black Tiger Gang in one fell swoop. If this dog doesn't listen to them, then the Wandering Soul Gang wouldn't let him go. This was because the Wandering Soul Gang didn't need a disobedient dog.
Hu Liangchen pondered for a moment before he turned to the crowd and said, "Everyone, you should know the current situation. I'm afraid the Wandering Soul Gang can't wait to force us to make a move. Does anyone have any opinions?"
The people present were all famous clans of the Black Tiger Gang. It can be said that they represented the majority of the Black Tiger Gang's strength. If they really joined the Wandering Soul Gang, then the Black Tiger Gang wouldn't be their opponent.
Although these clans usually followed the Hu Clan's lead, they were still an alliance after all. Because of this, Hu Liangchen needed to ask for everyone's opinion.
The people from the Great Clans were all silent. Nobody spoke as they lowered their heads. It seems like they had a lot on their minds.
When Hu Liangchen saw their appearance, he couldn't help but get angry. He continued, "I'm afraid that the matter of us asking the Wandering Soul Gang to deal with Zhang Feng has been exposed. The Wandering Soul Gang won't let us go, but Zhang Feng won't let us go either. Everyone, it's time to make a decision. Are you going to cut off all ties with the Wandering Soul Gang and wholeheartedly become a member of the Black Tiger Gang? Or are you going to overthrow the Black Tiger Gang and become a member of the Wandering Soul Gang?
The Patriarchs of the Great Clans were shaken. They didn't think that the matter would reach this point. It seems like the Wandering Soul Gang was ready to make a move. To be honest, nobody was prepared. They still haven't decided what to do.
Yes, they have been fighting with Tie Zhantian all these years. However, that was only an internal matter of the Black Tiger Gang. Although they borrowed some of the Wandering Soul Gang's strength, they only used the Wandering Soul Gang as a hired thug. If they really joined the Wandering Soul Gang and helped them destroy the Black Tiger Gang, then they wouldn't be willing to do so.
The people from the Great Clans weren't stupid. They knew that the reason why the Wandering Soul Gang valued them was because they were members of the Black Tiger Gang. Once they become members of the Wandering Soul Gang, they wouldn't know if the Wandering Soul Gang would still be polite to them.
The Wandering Soul Gang also had its own old forces. If they joined the Wandering Soul Gang, then what would those old forces think of them? When the time comes, they would certainly have a conflict with the old forces of the Wandering Soul Gang. This didn't mean that they were willing to have a conflict with them, but it was because of benefits.
Once the people from the Black Tiger Gang joined the Wandering Soul Gang, the higher-ups of the gang wouldn't feel at ease with them. This was because they were traitors. They were too united in the Black Tiger Gang. In the end, the Black Tiger Gang's leader was just a figurehead. The Wandering Soul Gang would certainly learn from this and try to divide them. When that time comes, would they still be able to maintain their current status?
Moreover, the Black Tiger Gang's territory wasn't smaller than the Wandering Soul Gang. The old forces of the Wandering Soul Gang wouldn't let go of this fat meat that was already in their mouths. At the same time, the people from the Black Tiger Gang wouldn't give up on their own benefits. Naturally, conflicts would arise.
At that time, they wouldn't have the Black Tiger Gang as their backing. This meant that they would have a direct conflict with the Wandering Soul Gang. The final result wouldn't be good.
If they didn't join the Wandering Soul Gang, then they would have to cooperate with Tie Zhantian and make preparations to deal with the Wandering Soul Gang. With their current strength, if they cooperated with Tie Zhantian and gave up some benefits and power, they would be able to protect themselves and their families.
In addition, they were members of the Black Tiger Gang after all. They were deeply rooted in the Black Tiger Gang and were very familiar with everything in the Black Tiger Gang. Even if they gave up a part of the benefits, they could still live freely in the Black Tiger Gang.
It seems like staying in the Black Tiger Gang was a good choice. However, they didn't know what Tie Zhantian's attitude towards this matter would be.
The Patriarchs of the Great Clans had already thought about this. In fact, Hu Liangchen had the same thoughts as them. However, he didn't say it out loud because he wasn't sure about the opinions of the Great Clans.
Seeing that no one was speaking, Hu Liangchen was about to speak when the Si Family Patriarch suddenly said, "Since no one wants to speak, then I'll say a few words. Our Si Family doesn't agree with joining the Wandering Soul Gang. Instead, we will use our current strength to negotiate with Tie Zhantian. Although Tie Zhantian is a crafty person, he's still a Body Cultivator. He likes to be straightforward when it comes to solving problems. What I mean is that we will openly negotiate with Tie Zhantian. Now that the Wandering Soul Gang is about to attack us, if Tie Zhantian agrees, then we will still be a member of the Black Tiger Gang. However, we have our own conditions, that is to maintain the status of the Great Clans. He can't suppress us too much, but if he doesn't agree and wants to exterminate us, then it would be a different matter."
When the Si Family Patriarch said this, a lot of people immediately reacted. They were all in favor of the Si Family Patriarch's proposal. To be honest, they still wanted to be the overlords of the Black Tiger Gang. They didn't want to be dogs of the Wandering Soul Gang.
Hu Liangchen looked at everyone and understood their thoughts. However, he still tried to probe, "Everyone, it's not easy to negotiate with Tie Zhantian. Don't forget, we had a lot of conflicts with him in the past. Even if Tie Zhantian says that he won't suppress us now, what will happen in the future? This is something that can't be determined. " While speaking, Hu Liangchen was also paying attention to the reactions of the Patriarchs. The Patriarchs of the Great Clans were frowning. Only one person had a happy expression on his face. Hu Liangchen immediately noticed this person, it was the Ma Family Patriarch, Ma Feng!
In the Black Tiger Gang, the Ma Family could only be considered a medium-sized family. However, their family's rise was very fast. Moreover, when they rose, they had already sided with the Hu Family. Even the Hu Family and the Wandering Soul Gang were connected by the Ma Family. It can be said that among all the clans, the Ma Family was the closest to the Wandering Soul Gang. In the past, Hu Liangchen suspected that the Ma Family was a chess piece that the Wandering Soul Gang had placed in the Black Tiger Gang. Now, it seems like his guess was correct.
Hu Liangchen's eyes flashed, he had already made up his mind. However, he still said, "Are you sure?"
At this time, Ma Feng stood up, he looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, you need to think carefully. Tie Zhantian isn't a magnanimous person. If Tie Zhantian really wants to deal with us in the future, then what should we do? Let ourselves be trampled upon? But joining the Wandering Soul Gang isn't the same. Now that we have a lot of strength, the Wandering Soul Gang will certainly take care of us. When the time comes, we will be able to enjoy endless glory and wealth. Your clans will also prosper for a long time. "
Just as Ma Feng finished speaking, the expressions of the other Patriarchs changed. Ma Feng thought that he had moved everyone, so he continued, "Everyone, the Wandering Soul Gang has promised us before. As long as we join the Wandering Soul Gang, they will certainly treat us well. If we don't agree, then when the Wandering Soul Gang's army arrives, we will all perish together."
The faces of the Patriarchs changed, their eyes flashed with killing intent. When Hu Liangchen saw this, he knew that the time was right, so he immediately said, "Everyone, this isn't a trivial matter. Please return to your clans and discuss it with your family before making a decision. What do you think?" The Patriarchs nodded and said, "What do you think?"
Everyone nodded and stood up. Then Hu Liangchen turned to Ma Feng and said, "Brother Ma, please stay for a moment. I have something to say to you alone."
When Ma Feng heard Hu Liangchen, his face immediately lit up and he nodded. On the other hand, the eyes of the other Patriarchs flashed. They didn't say anything as they turned around and left.
