Master Hu San said that Hou Tong was not stupid, and he was.
Among the 13 leaders of the Eagle Gang, Hou Tong was not the smartest, but he was definitely not the stupidest. Otherwise, he would not have been able to stay in his position until now.
The way he dealt with Su Xin was very simple. It could be summed up in one word: shameless!
I'm obviously using my identity to suppress you. What can you do?
If Su Xin gave the 100,000 taels of silver, his reputation in the Eagle Gang would definitely plummet, and he would leave the impression that he was easy to bully.
So what if you, Su Xin, took down Yongle Workshop? You will still be at our mercy.
If he did not give it, Hou Tong would continue to make trouble in Merry Forest.
Don't you, Su Xin, have shares in Merry Forest? Didn't you promise that you would protect Merry Forest? I will turn Merry Forest upside down. What can you do to me?
Huang Bingcheng and the others behind Su Xin all looked angry. Even if you, Hou Tong, are the leaders, you can't bully people like this, right?
Li Bo even pulled out the long sword at his waist, but it was pressed back by Su Xin.
"Did Master Hu San ask you to come?" Su Xin asked.
Hou Tong sighed and said, "You don't even call him Foster Father. Master Hu San really raised an ungrateful wolf."
Hou Tong did not deny it, which meant he admitted it.
Su Xin sighed and walked towards Hou Tong.
"I directly gave the money to the gang to tell him that we will not interfere with each other's business from now on. But my Foster Father seems to be very unwilling."
Su Xin's aura gradually rose, and a murderous aura enveloped him.
"Leader Hou, no matter whether you were encouraged by Master Hu San or he promised you something, I will give you a chance now. It's not too late for you to leave now."
Hou Tong was an old man who had fought with Sha Feiying in the past. He was very familiar with the murderous aura on Su Xin.
But he was still fearless. "Boy, what do you mean? You want to kill me? Do you really think you're invincible just because you killed Dai Chong? I'll stand here for you to kill me today. Do you dare to kill me? "
Killing Dai Chong would make Su Xin the hero of the Flying-eagle Gang, but killing Hou Tong would make Su Xin the sinner of the Flying-eagle Gang!
Hou Tong was not Liu Sandao, who could be killed by Su Xin at will. He was one of the leaders of the Flying-eagle Gang. He did not believe that Su Xin would dare to kill him.
Clang!
The sound of a sword rang out as Su Xin unsheathed his sword in his left hand. A piercingly cold killing intent instantly assaulted Hou Tong. Hou Tong instantly felt as if he was being targeted by a thousand ferocious wolves and would be torn apart in the next moment!
"He dares to kill me! He actually dared to kill me! "
At this moment, Hou Tong was finally afraid.
If he was given another chance, he would never provoke a madman like Su Xin.
That's right, in his heart, the current Su Xin was a madman! An out-and-out madman!
He was one of the thirteen leaders of the Flying-eagle Gang. If he died, even the gang leader would be alarmed. Yet, Su Xin really did not care and intended to kill him!
Hou Tong was weak to begin with. He had only unlocked less than ten acupuncture points in his body. In addition, he had been pampered for many years, which made his movements extremely slow.
Facing Su Xin's sword, he wanted to dodge, but his limbs were no longer listening to him. He could only watch as the sword pierced into his throat. In an instant, his vision turned red.
Hou Tong, who had been playing tricks his whole life, finally died because of his own cleverness.
He had imagined himself to be Su Xin and thought that Su Xin would not kill him. However, he was wrong. If Su Xin was really like him, he would not have achieved what he had today.
With a horizontal slash of the long sword, Su Xin directly cut off Hou Tong's head. It fell to the ground with a 'dong' sound.
At this moment, everyone finally reacted. Everyone was stunned by Su Xin's actions just now.
Huang Bingcheng and the others had guessed that with Su Xin's character, he would definitely make a move. However, they did not expect that Su Xin would kill Hou Tong directly!
At this moment, several of Hou Tong's subordinates screamed and immediately turned to run toward the door.
However, a ghost-like figure arrived first. A cold sword light flashed in front of them. Four of Hou Tong's subordinates fell to the ground, clutching their necks.
Seeing Li Bo make a move, Huang Bingcheng also reacted at this time. Since he had already killed Hou Tong, now he should think about how to deal with it.
Huang Bingcheng glanced at Boss Sun and the other gang members present and said in a low voice, "Boss, do we need to control these people?"
Although the people present were all Su Xin's gang members, except for Boss Sun and the other people from the gambling house, one could not judge a person's heart. What if the news was leaked?
Boss Sun, who stayed behind Su Xin, suddenly shivered. He was afraid that Su Xin would kill him to silence him.
Fortunately, Su Xin just waved his hand. "Don't be so nervous. This news can't be hidden, and I don't intend to hide it."
"Then, Boss, what should we do now?" Huang Bingcheng asked.
If this happened in the past, Huang Bingcheng would probably go crazy from fear.
However, after following this boss for a long time, Huang Bingcheng now had a somewhat calm attitude. He was only nervous at the beginning, but then he calmed down.
"Don't be anxious. This matter just happened to give me a chance, a chance to take back what belongs to me."
"What thing?" Huang Bingcheng asked.
"Of course, it's my position as the big boss. I can also dig out some of the parasites." A trace of coldness appeared in Su Xin's eyes.
Hou Tong came at the right time. Didn't you guys want to play? Then this time, let's all have some fun!
After ordering people to clean up the gambling den, Su Xin carried Hou Tong's head back to the hall. He asked Huang Bingcheng, "Old Huang, how much silver do we have left in our accounts?"
"One hundred and twenty thousand." Huang Bingcheng answered without even thinking.
Although Merry Forest had earned a lot in the past few months, Su Xin had also spent a lot. In addition to the money he had just received from Yongle Road, they only had over one hundred thousand.
"Take out one hundred and ten thousand. Apart from my foster father, give each of the big bosses ten thousand."
Huang Bingcheng hesitated. "Ten thousand isn't enough to feed them. If it was a small matter, it would be fine. But we killed Hou Tong. They won't speak up for us."
Su Xin tapped the table with his finger. "I didn't want them to speak up for me. These ten thousand is just to shut their mouths, so they won't hit us when we're down."
"Do we need to send some more silver to Hall Chief Lin Fuhu? Hall Master Lin seems to have a good impression of you. He'll probably speak up for us, "Huang Bingcheng suggested.
Su Xin shook his head. "There's no need for Lin Fuhu. Even if we don't give him a single cent, he'll speak up for us."
"Why?"
"It's simple. I killed Hou Tong. Do you think Torture Hall Master Dong Chengwu will let me off with such a heavy crime? With Lin Fuhu's personality, as long as Dong Chengwu approves of it, he'll oppose it. We don't need to say anything. He'll speak up for us. "
Huang Bingcheng nodded and took the silver to bribe the other big bosses.
On the other hand, Su Xin and Li Ba sat at the entrance of the hall in silence.
Li Bo didn't waste any time. He sat there quietly cultivating, while Su Xin was thinking.
Hou Tong coming to make trouble for him was something Su Xin didn't expect. He thought that even if Master Hu San was angry, he'd only send his subordinates to secretly use some small tricks. He didn't expect Hou Tong to come out in the end.
Of course, no matter how meticulous Su Xin was, he definitely wouldn't have expected that there would be someone as extreme as Hou Tong in the world. For a mere fifty thousand silver, he'd put down his pride as a big boss and get involved between Master Hu San and Su Xin.
Killing Hou Tong wasn't something that Su Xin decided on a whim. Thinking of the news that someone sent him two days ago, Su Xin laughed coldly in secret. This time, Master Hu San was looking for death.
Hou Tong was the perfect excuse for him to make trouble. He was ninety percent sure that he could get through this safely and get the position of a big boss.
And even if he failed, he wasn't afraid. Now, whether it was his own strength or the power of his subordinates, Su Xin had the capital to become a big boss.
If worst came to worst, he could just join another gang. The other gangs would probably welcome him.
Of course, this was the last way out. If there were no accidents, Su Xin wouldn't choose this path.
He still had a system mission. If he couldn't become the leader of the Flying-eagle Gang, the mission's punishment was to destroy a martial arts technique and drop a small realm.
With Su Xin's current family background, he had to bear such a heavy punishment. This was the same as turning Su Xin into a cripple. He was only at the early Houtian realm. If he continued to fall, he would be nothing more than an ordinary person.
After half a day, Huang Bingcheng came back.
"Boss, the silver has been sent, but can those guys really guarantee that they won't hit us when we're down?" Huang Bingcheng was very doubtful about the character of the big bosses of the Flying-eagle Gang.
"Why would they hit us when we're down when there's no benefit? Hou Tong doesn't have a good relationship with the other big bosses. Even if they hit us when we're down, it won't fall on me. Okay, it's almost time. It's time to clean up those vermin in the gang. "
The vermin Su Xin was talking about was naturally Ji Gang, who Master Hu San had sent to work under Su Xin.
Previously, Su Xin hadn't gotten rid of Ji Gang because he didn't want to fall out with Master Hu San.
Now, naturally, he didn't have to worry about it anymore. He could also get rid of those vermin like Ji Gang, who were hiding in the dark.
Not counting the thousands of newly recruited gang members, it turned out that among the close to two hundred people under Su Xin, there were definitely people who weren't on his side.
These people usually hid in the dark, and Su Xin couldn't search for them one by one. That would only cause his subordinates to be wary.
Now that he killed Hou Tong, such a big thing would spread, and those vermin would definitely make a move. It was a good opportunity to find them and get rid of them.
"Old Huang, bring Li Qing and the other trustworthy brothers to dig out those parasites. Li Bai and I will go find Ji Gang and see what kind of tricks he has been playing during this period of time."
Huang Bingcheng's expression turned serious. He immediately went out and called Li Qing and the others to leave.
The people who were found this time probably wouldn't just be flogging anymore.
