Chapter 269
Copper Gong Bay Rainbow Capital Nightclub.
They didn't even wait until evening; Immortal Brocade himself delivered the goods to the door.
Seeing Li Xin get straight to the point, he opened his mouth and said: "Mr. Li, this time I too am left with no choice; our water house will compensate you for all your losses, I will offer my life to make amends."
Li Xin gave a cold laugh: "Immortal Brocade, what do you think your life is worth? Your water house beat my face swollen; in the whole Gangdao underworld, who the hell dares to hit my face?"
Immortal Brocade's face turned ashen; it seems his life isn't enough!
He pleaded: "Mr. Li, I know the water house went a bit overboard this time, but I beg you, for the sake of our fellow jianghu brothers, to give the water house a way to survive."
"Whatever your demands, speak up; I accept the loss, I won't blame anyone, I'll settle the account!"
Li Xin fiddled with the lighter in his hand, silent for a moment.
He slowly said: "A way to survive isn't impossible, but it depends on whether your sincerity is deep enough."
Immortal Brocade's eyes sparked with a hint of hope; he hurriedly said: "Mr. Li, as long as you speak, I will go through fire and water for you."
Li Xin looked at Immortal Brocade and said: "I want the water house's land in Kowloon City, including the soda factory's land; I know the deed to that plot is in your hands."
"Impossible!"
Before he could even say the word 'can', Li Xin directly reached out, made a gesture inviting him to leave.
Immortal Brocade gritted his teeth, unexpectedly biting his own cheek, a trace of blood appearing at the corner of his mouth—looks like he really put in the effort!
The land in Kowloon City is nothing much; it was given by the Lee family, handing it over to Li Xin is fine.
But the land of the soda factory in Earth Melon Bay, he doesn't want to give up; it's the water house's place of origin.
If we hand it over to Li Xin, the water house will never be able to hold its head up; there's no point staying in Gangdao, we would have no foothold.
Immortal Brocade widened his eyes, looking at Li Xin; he understood—this was telling the water house to withdraw from Gangdao on its own.
"Give or not give?"
Li Xin looked at Immortal Brocade and asked, the lighter in his hand spinning faster.
"Give!"
After saying that word, Immortal Brocade wore a defeated look, as if all his vigor had been sucked out, not a trace of spirit left!
"Look, this isn't a misunderstanding, is it! A Ye, pour some good tea for Uncle Brocade."
After saying that, Li Xin rose and went to Immortal Brocade's side, helping him sit down.
He pulled over a chair, sat in front of Immortal Brocade, and said: "Hey! Uncle Brocade, our grudges are cleared, but I feel it's not worth it for you—selling your life to the Lee family, ending up like this?"
Immortal Brocade knew this bastard was trying to sow discord, but the resentment in his heart was also slowly growing.
Immortal Brocade's face turned grim and cold; he didn't take the bastard's words.
Li Xin, however, went on on his own: "The Lee family used you as a gun, then tossed you aside after use! Damn, that's not something a human would do—no wonder they started from pressing pills, truly ruthless!"
Immortal Brocade felt desolate inside, he sensed the Lee family's coldness.
Yet he stubbornly replied: "The Lee family hasn't treated me poorly, Mr. Li, there's no need to say more."
"Uncle Brocade, as jianghu folk, can we still swallow this? Isn't this a joke?"
"Your family has been sent by Han Bin to Maple Leaf Country; you know, only there things are easier—how is it there?"
"If you're not satisfied, I can send them elsewhere."
Li Xin's words were light and casual, yet they struck Immortal Brocade's ears like a thunderclap.
Immortal Brocade suddenly lifted his head, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, completely red.
After a moment, he gritted his teeth and said: "All right, Immortal Trust, I'll trust you this once. But if you deceive me, even if I go to the underworld, I won't let you off."
Li Xin nodded satisfactorily; once this was settled, he had no choice.
Immortal Brocade could only gamble as well, secretly swearing in his heart.
He must make the Lee family pay the price; do they really think he has no temper after using and discarding him?
Li Xin also gave Immortal Brocade some instructions; after he left, Li Xin picked up his big brother phone and directly called Han Bin.
He said: "Brother Bin, tell your people to send Immortal Brocade's family safely to Maple Leaf Country, without any mishap."
Han Bin hesitated a moment, then said: "A Xin, if you don't eradicate the roots when cutting grass, the spring wind will make it grow again—you need to think this through!"
Li Xin laughed and replied: "Brother Bin, don't say that; what happens to Immortal Brocade has nothing to do with me, not a feather's worth."
"I didn't kill him, and I even saw him off politely from Copper Gong Bay; if someone seeks revenge, they won't be able to pin it on me."
Han Bin felt his brain wasn't enough, furrowed his brows and asked: "You didn't move him? That's not your style!"
That one sentence made Li Xin so angry he hung up the phone—this is slandering him!
He's such a good person, yet Han Bin vilifies him; rumors harm people deeply!
……
Three days later.
Today, a major incident occurred in Gangdao: the water house's chief, Immortal Brocade, loaded his car with explosives and detonated it right at the Lee family's doorstep.
Before the detonation, he loudly shouted at the police and reporters: "The Lee family got rich from pressing pills, harming heaven and reason; I will eliminate harm for the people."
After a tremendous bang, the area in front of the Lee family's gate became a ruin.
Now it's lively; the Lee family is in utter chaos.
Lee Fihuang trembled with rage, on one hand directing the household servants to clean up the mess, on the other shouting at the media that he was wronged.
The police quickly intervened to investigate; after all, this was a self‑explosion on Peace Mountain Summit, a shocking major event.
Meanwhile, the reporters swarmed the Lee family like sharks that have smelled blood.
At that moment, Li Xin, who was drinking in Copper Gong Bay, curled the corner of his mouth into an imperceptible smile—this was his greeting gift.
I wonder if the Lee family likes it?
And Immortal Brocade's death also stirred up a commotion in the jianghu; inside the water house, panic spread, while the forces in Deep Water Pier were restless and ready to move.
Just at the critical moment, the water house's Lai stepped forward, directly leading the water house's troops to go develop in Malaysia.
Shuifang Lai handed over the territory to Prosperity's Jingma, and only then did the other gangs lower their flags and stop drumming.
Before leaving Gangdao, Shuifang Lai stood quietly at the bow, gaze fixed on the direction of Copper Gong Bay.
At this moment, he felt an unprecedented ease.
Recalling the past few days, the various ordeals he had endured, he couldn't help feeling a chill rise from his spine.
Their actions were simply outrageous!
The cruelty of their methods far exceeded what ordinary people could imagine.
Especially that leader, that so-called captain, was even more ruthless and vicious; just thinking of that cold face now makes Shuifang Lai tremble all over.
Hmm! Jianjun is a bit cold, but he's still pretty easy to get along with.
Look, Jianjun is still up on the nightclub's rooftop, grilling seafood for Li Xin!
Those few strings of squid are perfect with drinks!
Li Xin smiled and asked Jianjun, "Did Shuifang Lai take all the backbone members away?"
Jianjun nodded and said, "Boss, rest assured, Shuifang Lai wouldn't dare fool us; he's had two mental breakdowns, which is the limit of what ordinary people can endure."
"Shuifang Lai is still okay; for a normal person to break down once, it wouldn't be strange if they committed suicide."
