Chapter 1418: From Today On, I Am the Senior Brother of the Tianlou Sect

Several years passed, and Zhang Kang grew from a half-grown boy into a sturdy adult.

A face shared by the Wu family, a pair of determined eyes, a tall body, powerful arms, and the scar on his face, all indicated that this kid had been baptized by the flames of war.

Although he wasn't twenty yet, no one could deny his talent, his will, his determination, his courage, and his combat power!

No wonder so many people were willing to follow him in the business of losing their heads.

"Let's talk!"

Chen Guanlou swept his eyes over everyone with slight disgust.

Zhang Kang nodded, and the others didn't need to be reminded, withdrawing from the flower hall one after another.

"Who are you waiting for?" Chen Guanlou asked bluntly. "Are you waiting for someone to help you sell the stolen goods?"

"Master is indeed here for that batch of goods."

A blade was drawn, pressing directly against Zhang Kang's neck.

"Want to die?"

Zhang Kang had no fear at all. He looked directly at Chen Guanlou with bold eyes.

This was a contest between men, not between apprentice and master. No pleading, no weakness, no begging for mercy!

"Master wanted to kill me a long time ago, I'm not wrong. If you really want to kill, I won't resist! This life of mine was given by you, and everything I have today was built on the foundation you laid for me. Even my starting capital was given by you. You hand-in-hand molded me into what I am today. If you are not satisfied with everything I do, you can kill me."

"Are you not afraid of death?"

"When I was in the Heavenly Prison back then, I should have died!" Zhang Kang said solemnly.

Chen Guanlou suddenly withdrew his blade.

"Tell me, why did you hijack the Hou Fu's goods? You know very well that the Hou Fu won't let you go."

"Because I wanted to see Master!"

Chen Guanlou frowned deeply.

"Master didn't allow me to go to the capital to see you, so I could only use this method to see you."

Chen Guanlou indicated he didn't understand.

"Must see!" Zhang Kang said solemnly.

Chen Guanlou was slightly curious.

"Why?"

Zhang Kang first smiled self-deprecatingly. "No reason, just want to see Master. Want Master to see with your own eyes the achievements I have today, to see with your own eyes whether your apprentice is doing well or not."

"Just for this?"

Chen Guanlou frowned deeply.

"Just to let me see, you caused such a big thing."

"Yes!" Zhang Kang was frank.

Chen Guanlou completely disagreed. "Is your brain flooded? You are a rebel, you are rebelling, you don't have the power to be willful. You should be thinking every day, keeping a clear head. You don't rebel properly, but run to hijack the Hou Fu's goods, just to lure me to see you, is your brain kicked by a donkey?"

Listening to his scolding, Zhang Kang laughed, his smile exceptionally bright.

"I just want to listen to Master's lesson, listen to Master scold me, scold me for having a flooded brain. Thank you, Master!"

Chen Guanlou looked incredulous.

After thinking for a while, "You are sick!"

Not a question, but a statement.

Zhang Kang shook his head. "I'm not sick. It's just here..."

He pointed to his own head. "I need someone to scold me, to let my brain wake up."

"Others can't scold, it has to be me? You are truly cheap!" Chen Guanlou was truly angry.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party was his apprentice, he would have solved it with a knife long ago and left.

Zhang Kang seemed to have found a spiritual harbor, saying without restraint: "Because only Master's scolding can wake me up! Can let me walk firmly. Others, hehe, they don't have the qualifications. They aren't even as capable of speaking as I am. After scolding, they were persuaded by me instead. Only in front of Master, I can't refute a single word."

"You are sick!" Chen Guanlou complained. "You are just cheap! In the final analysis, it's because the pressure is too great, you need to relax. Don't be so tight, play with women, drink some wine, it doesn't count as a bad habit. A person must have a bad habit, that is the amulet that allows you to live healthily and happily, otherwise living has no meaning. Being too self-disciplined will make you go crazy! Occasionally indulge, just consider it soothing the body and mind."

He finally understood Zhang Kang's problem.

Demanding too much of himself, being too serious in doing things.

Carrying the hatred of nine clans, from the day he came out of the Heavenly Prison, what he thought about was how to take revenge. Learning was for revenge, practicing martial arts was for revenge, gathering talent was for revenge, doing business to earn money was for revenge, rebelling was even more for revenge...

Revenge was like a basket, locking him firmly inside.

If he had been a little older when the Wu family incident happened, perhaps the illness wouldn't have been so serious.

It was a pity he was too young then, his knowledge too little, his brain full of hatred, unable to hold anything else.

Look, now there's a problem.

Started to be cheap!

Started to look for spiritual sustenance!

He couldn't run a trip every time he had an episode.

If he didn't go crazy, Chen Guanlou would go crazy and kill people.

"Master, you know me, I don't have bad habits."

"Then cultivate one. I'm re-accepting you as an apprentice today, you must listen to me. Alright, now I'm expelling you from the sect again! Remember?"

"Master, what is our sect called?" Zhang Kang asked curiously.

"Tianlou Sect!" Chen Guanlou blurted out.

Zhang Kang laughed heartily. "I have a sect. I am Master's first disciple, so I am the Senior Brother of the Tianlou Sect! I am the Senior Brother!"

He laughed loudly, laughing extremely happily.

Chen Guanlou couldn't stand it. "Return the goods, and the three molds, hand them over to me."

Zhang Kang smiled and said: "The goods have already been sold, I can return part of the wealth, calculated in gold and silver. The three molds, I want to keep."

"Impossible!" Chen Guanlou grabbed Zhang Kang, and Zhang Kang instantly fell into his hands.

"Don't force me to kill you! My surname is Chen, I first consider the interests of the Chen family, not the interests of the Senior Brother who was expelled from the sect. Do you understand?"

Being choked by Master, breathing was difficult, but Zhang Kang still enjoyed it!

"I understand! Master's heart is my heart! Master respects the family, and I will also respect the Chen family. The molds can be returned, but I hope to have a little more time to let the craftsmen under me imitate one."

"Haven't you imitated it after such a long time?" Chen Guanlou was very disgusted.

"The Hou Fu's molds are of very high quality. We tried to cast money, and the coins cast, I can say for sure, can become the hardest currency on the market. Such molds, the craftsmen under me can't make, they don't have that technology. But now that there are ready-made ones, they can be imitated. Even if the quality is a bit worse, it's still much stronger than the coins circulating on the market."

Chen Guanlou released the other party's neck. "I'll give you three days."

"Three days is not enough!"

"Don't push your luck."

"Please Master, be tolerant." Zhang Kang knelt directly on the ground, requesting.

Chen Guanlou looked disgusted. "Tell me first, how much wealth can you return."

"About twenty thousand taels or so."

Damn!

What kind of scale was the caravan.
