Chapter 151: Fifty Percent Chance
"Do you think the Sect Leader has gone mad? He actually issued a life-and-death duel challenge to Senior Brother Ouyang Lie?"
"Mad! Absolutely mad! Fortunately, after tonight we will be leaving the War Wolf Gang, or we'd be dragged down by him again."
"Right, right. Take the severance pay and leave quickly, otherwise something crazy might happen, and the Lie Tian Gang will come knocking."
"Sigh! Just killed the Lie Tian Gang's Deputy Hall Master, and now they've provoked the Lie Tian Gang Sect Leader. It's sheer suicide. Following such a Sect Leader, no one knows how they'll die."
"But to be fair, the Sect Leader is strong. He killed Chen Yun in a single move. Didn't they say the Sect Leader was only at Warrior Stage 9 cultivation? How did he cultivate so fast? In less than a month, he's reached General Stage 4 cultivation?"
"He is a bit strong, but what's the point? Haven't you heard? The Sect Leader was stomped on the ground and brutally beaten by Senior Brother Ouyang Lie..."
"..."
Over a hundred members of the War Wolf Gang sat in small groups in the base courtyard, chatting while eating skewers.
Nowadays, chatting while eating skewers has become a habit and tradition for the War Wolf Gang members.
"Shh! Keep it down, don't let Hall Master He and the others hear. They are the Sect Leader's confidants."
As he spoke, he glanced cautiously at He Cheng, Gan Lei, and the others, then continued, "By the way, what will you do after the War Wolf Gang disbands?"
Someone whispered, "I want to follow Senior Brother Zhao Renwu. I heard Senior Brother Zhao Renli say they plan to establish their own gang..."
"Really? Then I want to join too!"
As the few discussed quietly, someone suddenly signaled toward the inner courtyard. Everyone turned to look and saw Sect Leader Facing Facing Cang Luo walking slowly and calmly from the inner courtyard.
Everyone exchanged glances and instantly fell silent, quietly eating their skewers without speaking.
After Facing Facing Cang Luo advanced to General Stage, his Yuan Consciousness and five senses were significantly enhanced. He heard the crowd discussing him from far away. Although they were all pessimistic about him, he didn't care at all.
A group of unperceptive fools; Facing Facing Cang Luo didn't want to say anything to them.
Besides, most of those discussing him behind his back were newcomers, the ones shouting to leave the gang.
Let them leave if they want. This Sect Leader won't serve them. The War Wolf Gang doesn't need such people.
Soon, Facing Facing Cang Luo reached the courtyard. He Cheng, Gan Lei, and the others guarding the inner courtyard entrance, who had originally pledged allegiance to him, instantly stood up, called out "Sect Leader," and wore expressions of deep respect.
However, after showing respect, their faces turned gloomy. They were also worried about Facing Facing Cang Luo's life-and-death duel with Ouyang Lie.
"Long time no see..."
As Facing Facing Cang Luo spoke, he patted their shoulders to sense their cultivation levels and smiled, "Oh ho! Hall Master He, congratulations. You've reached Warrior Stage 7. You others aren't bad either; you're all nearly at Warrior Stage 6."
When He Cheng originally pledged allegiance to him, he was only at Warrior Stage 5. After training in the Demon Beast Forest for half a month, he became Warrior Stage 6, and now he has even reached Warrior Stage 7.
The lowest among the others was only at Warrior Stage 3, and the highest was only at Warrior Stage 5. Now, they have all advanced at least one stage.
If not compared to Facing Facing Cang Luo, these people's cultivation speed is already considered very fast.
If they continue cultivating at this rate, within half a year, several of them will surely break through to General cultivation.
Of course, the premise is that the War Wolf Gang does not disband and the War Wolf BBQ Shop continues to operate, so it can continuously provide them with cultivation resources.
Otherwise, without the resources provided by the War Wolf BBQ Shop, everyone would return to the era of poor peasants, unable to save even one Low-Grade Spirit Stone a month. How would that be enough for cultivation?
As the Hall Master of the Green Dragon Hall, He Cheng is considered a high-ranking member in the current War Wolf Gang. Although high-ranking members like Hall Masters have no obvious benefits on the surface, they have many ways to obtain resources behind the scenes.
Like Zhao Renwu, he also has some scheming and depth. During this time, he has obtained quite a few resources, and of course, he hasn't forgotten Gan Lei and the others.
When he eats meat, Gan Lei and the others get to drink the soup.
After this period, He Cheng deeply knows and has truly experienced that the War Wolf Gang's model can genuinely bring improvement to everyone.
Otherwise, how could he reach Warrior Stage 7 cultivation so quickly?
Therefore, He Cheng feels fortunate about his decision to pledge allegiance to Facing Facing Cang Luo back then. He, Gan Lei, and the others sincerely hope the War Wolf Gang can grow stronger and become powerful.
Regarding people or things detrimental to the War Wolf Gang and Sect Leader Facing Facing Cang Luo, they firmly resist them.
He knows Zhao Renwu is plotting to seize Facing Facing Cang Luo's position as Sect Leader, but he is not worried at all. He sees it very clearly and thoroughly.
No matter how wildly Zhao Renwu jumps, as long as the Sect Leader returns, he will surely break the situation with force.
However, external enemies have appeared.
The Lie Tian Gang covets the War Wolf BBQ Shop and has been eyeing it every day. With the Sect Leader away for so long, he is deeply worried, fearing that one day the War Wolf Gang will be gone.
It was hard enough to wait for the Sect Leader to return. He hopes the Sect Leader has a way to break the deadlock, such as forming alliances with other small gangs to unite against the Lie Tian Gang.
Or, seek the help of Senior Sister Xuan Qingqing, the Sect Master's daughter. The Sect Leader seems to know her and can speak with her.
But as soon as the Sect Leader returned, he encountered the provocation of the Lie Tian Gang's Deputy Hall Master, eventually killing the opponent, and then provoked the Lie Tian Gang Sect Leader Ouyang Lie.
This completely offended the Lie Tian Gang, giving them an excuse to wipe out the gang.
Finally, he even issued a life-and-death duel challenge to Ouyang Lie, and it is set for noon tomorrow.
This is pushing the War Wolf Gang straight into the fire!
Do they not value their lives?
There isn't even time to seek Senior Sister Qingqing's help. Senior Sister Qingqing spends most of her time training outside...
He Cheng was extremely anxious. Looking at Facing Facing Cang Luo, he hesitated before speaking, "Sect Leader, do you have a chance to defeat Ouyang Lie..."
"..."
As soon as this was said, everyone nearby who heard it froze, looking at him as if he were an idiot.
Do you have a chance to defeat Ouyang Lie?!
Does this question even need to be asked?
Haven't you heard about the incident this afternoon at the Outer Sect Technique Pavilion, where the Sect Leader was stomped on the ground and brutally beaten by Ouyang Lie? The whole Outer Sect knows about it.
How could you ask such an idiotic question?
He Cheng himself paused for a moment. Yes, how could a Sect Leader at General Stage 4 cultivation defeat Ouyang Lie at the peak of General Stage 9 cultivation?
I have been blindly trusting the Sect Leader.
He Cheng gave a bitter smile, and the gloom on his face grew deeper.
Facing Facing Cang Luo, however, remained calm. He didn't rush to speak but looked at He Cheng and the others with a gratified smile.
At least, these people still support him. They haven't been swayed by Zhao Renwu, nor have they been frightened by the threats of the Lie Tian Gang. They are worth cultivating.
"Fifty percent."
Facing Facing Cang Luo whispered it so softly that no one else heard, then signaled He Cheng and the others to stay silent.
It was necessary to reveal a little of one's strength; if one appeared too weak, others would lose confidence.
Saying this, Facing Facing Cang Luo walked toward the direction where Wang Fuhai, Zhao Renwu, and Cang Feng stood; several of the few female members of the War Wolf Gang were there too, and they were walking over as well.
Behind him, He Cheng, Gan Lei, and the others instantly changed expression, stunned, thinking they had misheard.
What did the boss just say?
Fifty percent... a chance to defeat Ouyang Lie!?
He Cheng recovered first, his eyes flashing with sharp light; he immediately gave a quiet command to Gan Lei and the others, and they fell silent at once.
They realized: the boss's earlier beating by Ouyang Lie had clearly been a ruse to appear weak, waiting to ambush the opponent tomorrow...
In truth, they overestimated Facing Facing Cang Luo; Facing Facing Cang Luo's beating by Ouyang Lie had truly not been a ruse.
At that time, he had activated the Meiti Shengong state—he had gone all out, barely holding back the Dragon-Slaying Palm and summoning Erha; his combat power genuinely fell short of Ouyang Lie's.
But if he summoned Erha to fight to the death, he felt he might not lose.
Fifty percent chance—that was still a conservative estimate.
Now that he had infused his wind-elemental Qi into the Dragon-Slaying Palm, its power had increased by thirty percent; if he found the right opening, he believed he had at least a seventy percent chance of defeating Ouyang Lie.
