Chapter 117

After the frontline battle ended, this was not the end but the beginning, and an even bloodier fight began.

Lei Gong knew the firefight had failed, he hurriedly contacted the passenger ship; the Three United Gang's vessels were too far away, so he could only find the nearest ship able to go to sea—he had to return to Wanwan immediately, otherwise escaping would not be so easy!

That little bastard, he does things without scruples; if only they had investigated earlier!

After Lei Gong brought his bodyguards aboard the passenger ship, just as they left Ao Island's coastline, over seventy people suddenly appeared on board.

These people left no survivors; anyone who could breathe was killed, and finally they reached the wheelhouse.

Jianjun threw down a document bag, said nothing, and directly returned to Ao Island.

……

The Three United Gang faced the greatest catastrophe in its history; overnight, several hall masters were killed, and not a single aide beside them survived.

The trusted followers beside Zhongyong Bo swore to protect him, allowing him to escape with his life, preserving his life.

The entire Wanwan underworld was in an uproar; the top three societies, the Three United Gang, were leaderless overnight.

What are we waiting for?

Let's rob!

Jin Bo that old coot ran fast; after meeting Li Xin that day, he sensed trouble and immediately ran back to Wanwan, thus saving his life.

Because he returned late, the Big Circle Gang had no definite track of him, so they missed him.

What a lucky life!

Zhongyong Bo stepped forward to stabilize the situation, waiting for the gang leader to return and take charge.

Even so, the Three United Gang's territory in Wanwan was also carved up considerably; they could only defend as best they could, daring not to launch a rash counterattack.

In just a couple of days, news of Lei Gong's death arrived, making the Three United Gang's situation even worse; now there is no one who can make decisions.

At this point, Jin Bo said Lei Gong's son was studying abroad in the United States; if they found him and brought him back, that would suffice.

Just as they had this idea, news came from the United States that Lei Gong's son had died from multiple stab wounds—over a dozen— the fatal wound to the chest, the blows precise without any deviation.

Now the Three United Gang is in complete chaos; the gang leader has no heirs—what should we do?

Jin Bo had a suspicion, but he dared not speak it; he wasn't afraid of death, but of being cut off.

Finally, at the meeting, Jin Bo strongly supported Zhongyong Bo becoming gang leader; only he could stabilize the Three United Gang, preventing other societies from carving them up.

Whether to speak or not, Zhongyong Bo's reputation is indeed not bad; with him stepping forward, the various societies also gave him face, all ceased hostilities and stopped fighting, mainly because they were well fed!

The societies' territories would be divided according to what they currently occupy; Zhongyong Bo also knew this was the best outcome!

The problem now facing the Three United Gang is that too many of their hall masters' foundations have died!

The attackers are swift, accurate, and ruthless! As soon as they act, there are hardly any survivors.

At this point, the partridge who had just finished Lei Gong's assigned task, after recovering from his injuries, returned to the Three United Gang.

Zhongyong Bo was overjoyed and immediately announced that Shanji would assume the position of hall master of the Poison Snake Hall.

Finally, with no other choice, they picked the biggest among the short ones, appointing several with substantial foundations as hall masters.

Just as they were about to relax and begin solving Ao Island's troubles, another problem arose—the newly appointed hall masters had all been wiped out again!

Jin Bo finally couldn't hold back, found Zhongyong Bo, and bluntly said: "Settle the Ao Island matter, and this side's issues will also be settled!"

Zhongyong Bo is loyal and brave, but not stupid; he quickly realized that all this was the work of Marshal Immortal Trust of the Second Route of Thus line: Prosperity!

Too ruthless!

Even exterminating the roots isn't enough; this is aimed at wiping out the Three United Gang entirely!

If the Three United Gang's foundations keep dying like this, it won't be long before there's no one daring to take over, and the gang will face serious trouble!

Zhongyong Bo thought of the newly appointed Shanji—he isn't just from Gangdao Thus line: Prosperity, is he?

They hurriedly fetched Shanji; upon seeing him, Zhongyong Bo was completely stunned—Shanji's shoulder had also been shot.

After helping Shanji sit down, he then asked: "Shanji, how much do you know about Immortal Trust?"

Shanji blinked, then after reacting, said: "Brother Xin, I have some understanding; I don't know which aspect the gang leader wants to ask about."

Jin Bo interjected: "Tell us about his methods!"

Shanji didn't hesitate at all, directly saying: "That person Xin either doesn't act, or if he acts, he goes to extremes; in the Gangdao societies, few dare to provoke him."

Jin Bo and Zhongyong Bo exchanged a glance—no doubt, it was him who did it!

Zhongyong Bo asked: "What's your relationship with him?"

Shanji said: "Brother Xin has done me a favor, saving the lives of several of our brothers; even the travel expenses to come to Wanwan were provided by Brother Xin; as for the relationship…."

After a moment's thought, he continued: "You don't need a connection; if you have enough money, you can also have a good relationship with him—just don't provoke him, and he isn't the type to exterminate completely; he's still quite reasonable to talk to."

"He has good relations with many societies in Gangdao; don't provoke him, and you can be friends—those are all I know."

Jin Bo truly didn't want to fight anymore; if they fought, the Three United Gang's troubles would only grow!

Having just found out who the attackers were, his subordinates' hall masters have already been replaced twice; if they keep fighting, they might all die—how can they still fight?

Looking at Zhongyong Bo, he asked: "Gang leader, what do you say?"

Zhongyong Bo fell silent; he had decades of camaraderie with Lei Gong and wanted to avenge him, but at this point there was essentially no hope of revenge.

Sending gunmen is also possible, but after dispatching them he'd also have to worry about his family's safety—that Immortal Trust acts so absolutely, leaving no loose ends!

Between family and Lei Gong, he chose family—there's nothing else he can do!

The rest was simple: Shanji made contact with Li Xin.

……

Pu Jing Duchang.

Still the same room where Lei Gong had been beaten; this time Li Xin wasn't excessive, just sitting in a chair, and didn't call for massage services again.

Jin Bo knew Zhongyong Bo couldn't speak, so he spoke for him, saying: "Mr. Li, this misunderstanding between Thus line: Prosperity and the Three United Gang arose entirely from the gambling hall."

"The Three United Gang is willing to compensate Thus line: Prosperity for Ao Island's gambling hall; Mr. Li, for the gambling hall's compensation, the Three United Gang is willing to pay fifty million Hong Kong dollars—what do you think?"

Li Xin suddenly exploded, slamming his fist onto the table, directly putting a hole in it.

The Three United Gang's members were scared until their eyelids kept jumping; this fierce god is truly vicious!

All the Three United Gang members who fought that night are unwilling to face Li Xin; this person makes them keep having nightmares, and they still haven't recovered to this day.

Li Xin's low voice reached their ears: "You can choose to start a war, but whenever it ends, I decide."

"You Three United Gang, first you threatened our Prosperity's leader on Gangdao, then you came to my gambling hall to stir up trouble—do you think our Prosperity has no one left?"

Jin Bo hurriedly explained: "Mr. Li, this matter is the responsibility of our Three United Gang; we accept punishment and fines, only hoping the two groups can shake hands and make peace."

"What other conditions can you raise? Our Three United Gang will accept them; do you think this works?"

Jin Bo was truly scared out of his wits by Li Xin's methods; in Wanwan gang fights they all use watermelon knives, and just having a handgun is already extremely overbearing.

This damn Immortal Trust is pretty good—a three‑person team, three handguns, plus an AK to suppress the formation.

How do we fight this?

Can't fight it!
