When Gu Jingman chose Mo Wen as the representative, the leaders of a few big factions came to her door to object. They mocked her openly and secretly, saying that she really didn't know what was good for her.
"Everyone, please go back. I have made up my mind. I have tried my best in the underground fight. I hope that each of you can also do your best."
Gu Jingman said plainly.
"Since Sect Leader Gu is so stubborn and ignores the greater good, going against the principles of justice, after this underground fight ends. If we lose because of Sect Leader Gu's indulgence, then my Black Leopard Gang will have to ask for an explanation from Sect Leader Gu. "
The leader of the Black Leopard Gang, Feng Yuan, threw down this sentence and turned to leave with a cold face.
Once he said this, the faces of the leaders of the surrounding factions changed slightly. Feng Yuan's words were too harsh. It was equivalent to indirectly declaring war with the Fei Ying Sect and completely breaking off relations with Gu Jingman.
In terms of power, the Black Leopard Gang was far from the Fei Ying Sect. Feng Yuan was usually cautious and knew who he could offend and who he could not. How could he be so reckless and bold today? That was not Feng Yuan's character. Even if he was worried about the underground fight, he wouldn't act like that.
The faces of the few Fei Ying Sect higher-ups behind Gu Jingman turned cold. Feng Yuan's words were equivalent to provoking them. Moreover, he was provoking them in front of the leaders of the other three big factions.
"Reckless."
Gu Jingman just looked at Feng Yuan coldly and didn't say anything else.
"Everyone, please go back. Our sect leader likes peace and quiet."
Zheng Shuangshuang said plainly. Although she was also against the leader's decision to send Mo Wen, that pretty boy, was purposely going easy on him. But at this time, she had to stand on the side of the leader.
"Sect Leader Gu, won't you reconsider? Senior Chen's cultivation has reached the pinnacle of the Sea of Qi. He will definitely be able to suppress the people of the Yamaguchi-gumi. If you can win one match, our chances of winning will be much higher. "
The leader of the Triad Sect, Du Pingsheng, was still a little unwilling to give up. Before this, he had already marked Uncle Chen, who was beside Gu Jingman, as one of the members who had to fight. Who knew that there would be such an unforeseen event?
"Thank you, Sect Leader Du, for thinking highly of me, but I am far from Mo Wen," Uncle Chen said plainly.
Du Pingsheng naturally didn't believe Uncle Chen's words. He was just a youth. How could he be stronger than an elder who had practiced ancient martial arts for so many years? Since Gu Jingman had made this decision, she must have discussed it with Uncle Chen. Right now, she was just finding an excuse to dismiss him.
"Sect Master Gu, please reconsider."
Du Pingsheng sighed slightly and cupped his fists at Gu Jingman. Then, he turned around and left with a straight face.
Widow Wang and Jiang Guhuai glanced at each other, then looked at Gu Jingman. Both of them laughed coldly. Previously, Gu Jingman had been the most resolute in opposing Yamaguchi-gumi. But now, she was the first to betray them.
Mo Wen drank his tea. Seeing that the commotion had dissipated, he laughed and said, "Could it be that I look so bad on the outside?"
Gu Jingman rolled her eyes at Mo Wen. She couldn't be bothered with him. Just now, Mo Wen could totally show off his skills and use his actions to stop those people's rumors. However, he just stood there and watched the show, as though it had nothing to do with him.
Zheng Shuangshuang curled her lips and thought to herself, 'Of course you can't. What can a man who only knows how to hide behind a woman's back be useful?'
…
On the other side, in the Yamaguchi-gumi area, a hundred meters away.
"Did you find out? Is Yoshida Jiro's death related to the five major forces? "
A slightly plump middle-aged man squinted his eyes. There was a cold glint in his eyes. Not long ago, he had received the news of his second brother Yoshida Jiro's death. He had died in his own house. However, his death was very strange. There were almost no signs that he had died.
As the head of the Yamaguchi-gumi's Shenzhou department, Yoshida Ichiro had seen all kinds of situations. Naturally, he knew that his second brother Yoshida Jiro's death was strange. It was definitely not a normal death.
After investigating, he discovered that not only had Yoshida Jiro died, but his son Yoshida Yuichi had also died. Even the martial arts practitioner of the Devil Saber-kai, Aso Saki, had died. At the same time, there had been a huge incident on the Sword of the Seas. Many people had disappeared for no reason. It was unknown whether they were dead or alive.
"Lord Head, the murderer has been very cautious. He has cleaned up the scene. We have not obtained many clues. All the surveillance cameras in the control room have been damaged. Fortunately, the hard drive was not lost. If there is enough time, we can restore the surveillance footage. "
A middle-aged man bowed slightly and said respectfully.
"When can it be restored?" Yoshida Ichiro asked with a frown.
"I have already instructed people to handle this matter. However, it will take at least a week," the middle-aged man said with his head lowered.
"Useless!"
Yoshida Ichiro snorted coldly. He was not worried about his second brother's death. Instead, he was secretly happy because there was one less person to fight with him for power.
The Yoshida family had been in charge of the Yamaguchi-gumi's Kyushu department for generations. It was a mafia family with a long history. Such a big family naturally had many internal struggles for power.
Now that Yoshida Jiro was gone, he had one less opponent. He did not have to worry that his second brother would continue to fight with him for power.
However, Yoshida Jiro's death could not be ignored because he could not explain it to his family. Not only did he have to find the murderer, but he also had to do it beautifully to further consolidate his position as the head of the Kyushu department.
"Lord Head, the five major forces of Hua Xia are the most suspicious because only they have the ability to do so," the middle-aged man said.
"That is not necessarily true. Yoshida Jiro has Aso Saki by his side. Even if they wanted to kill Yoshida Jiro, they would not have succeeded so easily. It is even more impossible for them to do it without leaving any traces. Now is an eventful time. This time on the Sword of the Seas … Sigh, forget it. Go and restore the video. There is nothing else for you to do. "
Yoshida Ichiro waved his hand helplessly and dismissed his subordinate. There were some things that he knew, but he could not tell others. If those people had really killed Yoshida Jiro, even if he knew who the murderer was, he would not be able to take revenge.
"The person who killed Yoshida Jiro has helped me. If he had not killed Aso Saki, how could he have invited the Devil Saber-kai to participate in this underground fight? Originally, I did not have much confidence in dealing with the five major forces that are supported by martial arts practitioners. But now … Hmph! They will definitely lose. "
Yoshida Ichiro laughed coldly. Originally, he could not invite the big shots of the Devil Saber-kai to participate in the underground fight in Kyushu department. However, Aso Saki's death was equivalent to indirectly provoking the Devil Saber-kai. He only needed to make an issue out of it and pour dirty water on the five major forces. Then, he would add oil and vinegar to his grievances. He was not afraid that the big shots of the Devil Saber-kai would not target the martial arts practitioners from Hua Xia.
Fierce dragons did not cross the river. They were just a few bugs. How could they come to Fu Sang Country's territory and think that they could suppress the Yamaguchi-gumi? They were really daydreaming!
"Pass down the order. The underground fight will begin. It's about time."
Yoshida Ichiro stood up from his chair and walked to the center of the arena. He cupped his fists towards the five major forces and said in a loud voice, "Comrades from Hua Xia Country, according to the rules, the underground fight agreement has come into effect. Are you ready?"
"Of course, we are ready to fight at any time. I hope that the Yamaguchi-gumi will abide by the agreement. If you lose the underground fight, you will not transport drugs to Hua Xia Country for ten years."
Du Pingsheng walked out with a cold face.
"Of course. We, the people of Fu Sang Country, are the most trustworthy," Yoshida Ichiro said calmly.
"Trustworthy? After Fu Sang Country lost the Second World War, how many of the terms of surrender have you fulfilled? "
Gu Jingman laughed coldly.
"Sect Leader Gu, you have digressed. That is a national matter. It is not something that we should care about." Yoshida Ichiro's face was slightly cold.
"Cut the crap. The Yamaguchi-gumi should send out their candidates. The Fei Ying Sect will be the first to fight," Gu Jingman said calmly.
According to her plan, Mo Wen should be the first to fight and directly defeat all the people from the Yamaguchi-gumi. Then, he would shut the mouths of the people from the other major forces.
"Sect Leader Gu, I'm afraid it is a little inappropriate for the Fei Ying Sect to be the first to fight, right? The first person to fight is especially crucial. If he loses too badly, it will inevitably affect everyone's morale. "
Who knew that just as Gu Jingman finished speaking, Widow Wang would stand out to object. Although in terms of influence, she was not Gu Jingman's match, at this moment, she did not want Gu Jingman to dominate the situation. Otherwise, others would think that Gu Jingman's Fei Ying Sect was the leader among the five major forces.
"What Chairman Wang said makes sense. We must send out a strong person for the first round. Not only must he win, but he must win beautifully," Jiang Guhuai agreed.
Actually, he did not care who was the first to fight. However, his goal was the same as Widow Wang's. He did not want Gu Jingman to stand out too much.
"Since everyone has objections to the order of fighting, let's draw lots."
Du Pingsheng furrowed his brows. The Yamaguchi-gumi is a strong opponent, but you guys are actually fighting amongst yourselves. However, he also felt that it was not appropriate to let the people from the Fei Ying Sect fight first. If they lost too badly, it would inevitably affect their morale.
"Then let's draw lots."
Gu Jingman's face was cold. She glanced at Widow Wang and Jiang Guhuai, then sat down. She seemed to be in no hurry again.
"Lady boss, we have drawn lot number five."
After a while, Zheng Shuangshuang walked in front of Gu Jingman. She helplessly showed her a bamboo lot with the number five on it.
Gu Jingman only glanced at it but did not speak. She closed her eyes slightly, as if she did not care about anything.
"We can only be the last to fight," Zheng Shuangshuang said helplessly.
She did not expect her luck to be so bad. She had actually drawn lot number five! Originally, she was thinking that if she could draw lot number one, the Fei Ying Sect would be the first to fight. Then, she would be able to help Lady boss vent her anger.
However, she changed her mind. Drawing lot number five might not be a bad thing. It would save Mo Wen the trouble of losing too badly and embarrassing himself. If Mo Wen did not have to fight, and the five major influences won the underground fight, that would be the best.
Yoshida Ichiro laughed coldly. The people of Hua Xia Country really liked to fight amongst themselves. The order of fighting was such an important matter, yet they actually used the method of drawing lots to decide it. In the underground fight, the order of fighting could often decide the final outcome of the fight. Didn't their Hua Xia Country have the story of Tian Ji racing horses? They actually did not understand this principle.
Among the five major influences, Jiang Guhuai had drawn lot number one. The first person to fight would be chosen by the Black Eagle Sect. (To be continued.)
