Chapter 193: Red Rainbow Hall

~6 min read 1,159 words

A thick stack of silver banknotes was taken out from Zhu Gaoxu's bosom.

Everyone was stunned.

Even Vice Gang Leader Wang, who had been standing in the back observing in secret, widened his eyes directly.

The entire inn fell silent for a moment.

Those lackeys of the Black Tiger Gang actually did not dare to step forward to take the silver banknotes in Zhu Gaoxu's hands for a moment.

What a joke; one could figure it out even with their backside.

Such a small child could casually pull out tens of thousands of taels in silver banknotes.

The power of his family must be heaven-defying.

It was simply not something they could afford to provoke.

Thinking this, the few lackeys all turned to look at the Vice Gang Leader behind them.

Vice Gang Leader Wang knew what the few were thinking just by looking at his subordinates' expressions.

How could he not also be somewhat wary?

But seventy thousand taels of silver banknotes were right before his eyes.

It was a number he probably could not earn in a lifetime of struggle.

He was equally unwilling to just give it up like this!

Thinking this, a flash of ruthlessness crossed Vice Gang Leader Wang's eyes.

If everyone died, then no one would be able to trace it back to him in the short term.

By then, he would take the silver banknotes and fly far away; by the time they traced it to him, he would have long since run far away.

Thinking this, Vice Gang Leader Wang looked at the waiter again.

If he really wanted to do this, then everyone present had to die!

The waiter saw the look in Vice Gang Leader Wang's eyes.

Although he did not know what the other party was thinking, having been a waiter for so many years, he still had that bit of discernment.

Knowing the other party was ill-intentioned, and thinking of their reputation for committing all kinds of evil,

his legs immediately went weak.

Just at this moment, Zhu Gaoxu spoke up.

"Why have you brothers all stopped talking? Please keep this money for me."

As he spoke, he looked at the group with wide, innocent eyes.

He was not afraid at all to hand this money over to the other party.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard would arrive in the afternoon; by then, he was confident he could make the other party spit out every cent they took from him.

Not only that, the other party would also have to pay with their lives!

These people did not know that Zhu Gaoxu was fearless because he had support; one of the lackeys heard Zhu Gaoxu's words and turned his head to look at Vice Gang Leader Wang.

Seeing the boss hesitate for a moment, then his expression changed.

He nodded with a face full of determination.

Only then did the lackey turn his head back, smiling stiffly and trembling as he said, "This... this is what you... you said you wanted me to keep, okay."

After speaking, he reached out tremblingly, wanting to take the silver banknotes from Zhu Gaoxu's hand.

Just at this moment, a voice rang out at the entrance of the inn.

"A group of adults swindling a child's money; the Black Tiger Gang is becoming more and more shameless!"

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

The lackey also subconsciously withdrew his outstretched hand.

Zhu Gaoxu looked toward the voice.

He saw a group of people standing outside the door as well.

The number of people was even quite a bit more than these people from the Black Tiger Gang.

There were fully fourteen or fifteen of them.

Vice Gang Leader Wang clearly also saw this group of people.

It appeared the two sides were clearly quite familiar with each other, and at the same time, they both assumed a defensive posture.

Clearly, the two sides did not get along.

Vice Gang Leader Wang frowned upon seeing these people before him.

The arrival of these people clearly disrupted his plan.

This waiter and the others in the inn were easy to deal with.

But these people before him were clearly a problem.

It was impossible for these people to keep any secrets for him.

Knowing that silencing them was impossible, Vice Gang Leader Wang said to the people at the door with some annoyance: "You people from the Red Rainbow Hall are still as fond of meddling in other people's business!"

The leader of the Red Rainbow Hall stood at the door.

Hearing Vice Gang Leader Wang's words, he gave a contemptuous laugh: "No matter what, my Red Rainbow Hall is still a hundred times better than you low-lifes of the Black Tiger Gang."

"I have important matters today, so I can't be bothered to argue with you; while I'm in a good mood, get lost!"

Vice Gang Leader Wang clearly had not suffered such indignity before.

Hearing the other party insult him like this, his hand subconsciously gripped the hilt of the blade at his waist.

Fortunately, a lackey by his side stepped forward and stopped Vice Gang Leader Wang.

And whispered in his ear: "Vice Gang Leader, the other side has the advantage in numbers; let's bring our men next time and get our own back."

Hearing his lackey's reminder, Vice Gang Leader Wang finally came to his senses.

The other side's numbers were indeed quite a bit higher than theirs.

Glaring fiercely at the other side, that Vice Gang Leader Wang then waved his hand with a face full of resentment and left with a group of underlings.

Once the people from the Black Tiger Gang had all left, Zhu Gaoxu also understood what was going on.

It turned out to be two rival gangs running into each other.

It looked like this was clearly not the first time both sides had encountered such a scene.

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu could not help but feel a bit curious.

This kind of struggle between jianghu gangs could not be encountered in Jingcheng.

Even if there were, sects like the Angry Blade Hall from before would not be as large in scale as the other side.

Furthermore, it was not like now, where the conflict between the two sides was so obvious that they dared to curse at each other in the middle of the street.

Just as Zhu Gaoxu was sizing these people up.

The person leading the Red Rainbow Hall also walked in.

The other party took two steps in one and walked up to Zhu Gaoxu, then cupped his fists and said, "I am Yu Feipeng, Vice Hall Master of the Red Rainbow Hall. Although those people from the Black Tiger Gang were just scared off by me, I reckon they will come back for revenge once I leave. You, little one, are carrying a large sum of money at such a young age; why not come with us first?"
