Chapter 217: Jianghu Secrets, the Identity of Yu Feipeng

~6 min read 1,017 words

Yet despite knowing it was useless, they still subconsciously wanted to gather together to discuss it.

As if doing so could put their minds at ease.

But just sitting here staring blankly at each other was clearly not a solution.

After a long while, Black Tiger Gang leader Tu Dafu gave a light cough and spoke up.

"This can't go on like this. I propose we scrape together the wealth within the gang and entrust someone to send it to that Prince, so we can at least see what his attitude is."

This was clearly a solution that was no solution at all.

Given the current situation, no one could think of any good way out.

But at this moment, that Vice Leader Wang spoke up.

Vice Leader Wang gave a bitter laugh, then slowly said: "As everyone knows, when that person reaches out, tens of thousands of taels of silver come out easily; would he care about this little bit of ours?"

Hearing Vice Leader Wang's words, the crowd frowned, clearly having thought of this as well.

However, upon remembering this matter, several people cast dissatisfied glances at Vice Leader Wang.

Although they knew this matter wasn't his fault, after all, anyone would be tempted upon seeing that much money.

Not a single person sitting here had clean hands.

Vice Leader Wang had simply run into a tough nut to crack.

It was just bad luck.

But regardless, Vice Leader Wang had ultimately provoked that noble person.

Perhaps that noble person was blaming the Black Tiger Gang precisely because of this.

Although they also knew this possibility was slim.

After all, anyone with eyes could see that the other party was coming for Yu Feipeng.

It was just that for some reason, the leader had been bearing the pressure from everyone and refusing to hand over Yu Feipeng.

This made the group increasingly dissatisfied.

Everyone knew that the longer things dragged on, the less safe it was.

Perhaps in the next second, the government officials would come killing their way in.

And when that time came, the imperial army would certainly be following along.

Although they claimed to be a martial arts gang.

That was just gilding their own faces.

At most, they were a local force, a gang formed by a group of thugs and ruffians who knew a few moves.

They were certainly no match for a regular army.

It was estimated that before the fighting even started, many would be scared into wetting their pants.

The more they thought this way, the more oppressive the atmosphere in the room became.

Finally, someone couldn't take it anymore and couldn't help but ask the question that had already been asked who knows how many times.

"Leader, why not hand over Yu Feipeng?"

Once these words were spoken, everyone present turned their gaze toward Tu Dafu.

In an instant, Tu Dafu's pressure doubled.

Looking at the bloodshot, dissatisfied eyes of the crowd, Tu Dafu knew that if he didn't give them an explanation now, he was afraid he would be the one "explained" here.

Taking a deep breath, Tu Dafu exhaled it fiercely.

Only then did he speak: "Since you all are thinking about it, I won't hide it from you anymore."

Seeing that the leader was about to reveal the truth, everyone stopped talking, and even their breathing became quieter.

Regarding this, Tu Dafu paid no mind, just speaking to himself.

"Do you really think I don't want to hand over Yu Feipeng?"

"But I fear that even if we hand over Yu Feipeng, our days won't be easy either!"

Once these words were out, everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke; they knew the leader would provide an explanation.

Sure enough, Tu Dafu continued: "Do you know Yu Feipeng's identity?"

Upon hearing this, Vice Leader Wang immediately replied: "Isn't he just the Hall Master of the Red Rainbow Hall?"

He hadn't known before that his own leader and Yu Feipeng had such a deep friendship, so over these years, he hadn't competed with Yu Feipeng any less.

The two of them could be considered quite familiar with each other.

Hearing Vice Leader Wang's words, everyone nodded and then looked at Tu Dafu.

Yu Feipeng's identity was no secret to those sitting here.

But Tu Dafu sneered at this and said: "If he were merely the Hall Master of the Red Rainbow Hall, how would he be worthy of being so close to me, and why would I help him control some Red Rainbow Hall?"

Hearing this, everyone nodded without exception.

Although the Red Rainbow Hall and the Black Tiger Gang had always been in conflict.

That was entirely because the old Hall Master of the Red Rainbow Hall, Old Master Bai, was still alive.

As soon as Old Master Bai was gone, the Black Tiger Gang would wipe out the Red Rainbow Hall in minutes.

Why would they go through the trouble of helping Yu Feipeng when they could do it themselves?

Tu Dafu's next sentence completely answered everyone's doubts.

"Yu Feipeng has a connection to Cangjian Villa!"

Once these words were out, everyone gasped.

Cangjian Villa was considered a famous major sect within the entire Shandong region.

It was far from something their tiny Black Tiger Gang could provoke.

But very quickly, someone raised a question.

"How could that Yu Feipeng possibly have a connection to Cangjian Villa? If he were truly a person from Cangjian Villa, why would he condescend to stay in this tiny Red Rainbow Hall?"

As soon as this person finished speaking, many people nodded.

They then looked toward Tu Dafu, waiting for his explanation.

And Tu Dafu did not disappoint the crowd, revealing a piece of gossip from inside Cangjian Villa.

"This Yu Feipeng is actually the illegitimate son of the old master of Cangjian Villa!"

"What!"

"How could this be!"

Just as Tu Dafu finished speaking, many sounds of shock followed immediately after.

However, everyone had an expression of disbelief.

For a moment, even the oppressive atmosphere in the room dissipated quite a bit.
