Chapter 467: The Great War begins again! I suspect she's been possessed by something dirty!

~8 min read 1,451 words

The next day, at dawn.

A newspaper was delivered to the Night Wanderer Bar on time.

Su Yang smelled the strong aroma of alcohol and opened his eyes abruptly. He got up and saw that the waiter had already started the new day's work.

He climbed up from the sofa, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and yawned.

"What time is it?"

"Seven in the morning. It's still early. Would the Gang Leader like to sleep a bit more?" the waiter suggested gently.

"My sleep has been light lately; once I wake up, I can't fall back asleep." Su Yang pinched the bridge of his nose.

After leaving the mine last night, that side was handed over to Zhao Xian's subordinates to watch.

Over two hundred experienced miners could dig out more than ten tons of gold-rich ore in one night.

Su Yang was extremely satisfied with their efficiency and immediately arranged for people to find sales channels.

High-purity gold didn't need to worry about finding a path; after selling in the city, it could be sold to other cities or even shipped overseas by water.

This stuff was compliant and legal, unlike arms; everyone liked it wherever it went.

Moreover, as the price rose, Su Yang saw countless riches beckoning to him even in his dreams.

So much so that he was too excited and didn't sleep much at night.

"Ding-ling—"

The bar door opened, and two people walked straight in.

Seeing this, the waiter hurriedly said, "Sorry, guests, it's not opening time for the bar yet."

The two ignored him, scanned the surroundings, fixed their eyes on Su Yang, and then walked over with large strides.

"These two are my friends," Su Yang said with a smile.

"Gang Leader Su has such leisure; you can still sleep at a time like this?" a soft female voice came.

"Secretary Yin, what are you saying? If the sky falls, there's someone taller to hold it up. What am I afraid of?" Su Yang said lightly.

The visitors were none other than Huang Hua and Yin Yun.

Both had exhaustion hanging between their brows; clearly, they hadn't rested last night.

"Bring some water, make it iced!" Yin Yun took off her coat, revealing a plump and full figure.

"Such a big temper? What happened last night?" Su Yang glanced and then moved his gaze away.

"Look at the newspaper." Yin Yun pouted.

Su Yang spread out the newspaper, and saw a line of blood-red characters printed on the page—

"Fierce Conflict Erupts in West City District, Casualties Exceed Three Thousand"

Seeing this news, his brows couldn't help but furrow.

"Yesterday I praised you for being honest, and today you've exposed your true nature..."

The seven-day layout that had been agreed upon was violated by the editor-in-chief on the third day, which made Su Yang very displeased.

"This is the meaning of the Wuwu King; the Jinshan Daily is just a weather vane," Yin Yun said.

The plan was interrupted temporarily, but Su Yang didn't get angry; instead, he quickly read the content above.

"The iced water you wanted." The waiter brought it up.

"Thank you." Yin Yun drank a large gulp and let out a long breath.

The whole person seemed to have come alive, and her complexion was much rosier.

"Drinking iced water in the middle of winter, be careful of a stomach ache." Su Yang mentioned without lifting his head.

"This is life-saving stuff; I can't stand it if I don't drink it," Yin Yun said.

Su Yang finished reading and closed his eyes to ponder.

Huang Hua wanted a glass of whiskey, took a small sip, and said, "The warlord's action yesterday was just a probe; he's checking the other side's bottom line."

Su Yang slowly opened his eyes and nodded. "I can see that; not much armed force was used."

"We received a secret letter from the Wuwu King last night. He asked Huang Hua and me to cooperate in an operation and kill a dozen people along the way." As Yin Yun explained, it was as if she were describing a trivial matter.

Su Yang stared at her eyes, a thread of scrutiny in his gaze.

Yin Yun drank the iced water dry and said with a strange expression, "Why are you looking at me?"

Su Yang withdrew his gaze and asked, "What did you find out?"

"The factory area is currently led by Li Yongfeng and Bamboo Leaf Green. The two are working closely together and have quite a lot of arms," Huang Hua said.

"What about the number of people?"

"Judging from last night's contact, the number exceeds twenty thousand, and this is just the number on the surface," Huang Hua said with a hint of gravity.

"So it's a tough bone..." Su Yang nodded slightly.

Yin Yun was unhappy when she heard this and pouted. "In my opinion, the Wuwu King should be decisive, send the whole army out, and catch them off guard."

"Probing back and forth, in the end, it's just wasting everyone's time. How much leisure time does our Floating Life Business Association have to play with him?"

Su Yang tapped the table with his fingertips and asked again, "Any intelligence on the gold mountain in the factory area?"

"Haven't touched the core area yet, but after I went back, I deduced that it's roughly in the exploration stage."

"So it hasn't been officially mined yet?"

"Right. Li Yongfeng seems to advocate splitting the gold mountain with major forces; he doesn't intend to swallow it alone with the Bamboo Forest Gang."

"Inviting people to join, good calculation." Su Yang sneered in his heart.

Li Yongfeng was a smart man; he knew that with his and the Bamboo Forest Gang's power, he couldn't shake the beast that was the warlord.

Proposing a split was smart; not only could it share the firepower, but it could also win over allies.

If the gold mountain were obtained by the warlord, other forces would definitely have no chance to get a share.

Therefore, others also knew this was the last chance, and the only chance.

"Are we not grabbing it?" Huang Hua asked.

"A gold mountain the size of a sesame seed, what for?" Su Yang shook his head.

"What does this mean?" Huang Hua looked puzzled.

Su Yang explained with a smile, "The news that there's a gold mountain in the West City District was released by me. You and I both know the reason for the collapse was Luo San; there's no so-called gold mountain underneath."

"Even if there is gold, it's just a thin layer on the surface."

"So Li Yongfeng also knows this is a scam?" Huang Hua suddenly realized.

"The arrow is on the string and must be fired; he has already torn his face with the warlord, and now the only thing he can do is lie," Su Yang said slowly.

"So that's it..." Huang Hua laughed dumbly.

If the Wuwu King knew that the gold mountain he had spent so much effort fighting for was just a fake, how furious would he be?

Li Yongfeng had a ghost in his heart, but he couldn't escape safely either.

This move was risky; he had staked his entire life.

At the same time, he had also dragged the Bamboo Forest Gang into the water.

"It's strange, the Qinglong Gang actually didn't choose to fight," Huang Hua said suspiciously.

"You want to say why those three players didn't enter the game?" Su Yang raised his eyelids slightly.

"You know the reason?"

"They knew long ago that this news was fake, so naturally they wouldn't join," Su Yang nodded slightly.

Huang Hua's brows furrowed, and just as he wanted to speak, he was interrupted by Yin Yun on the side. "Don't care about anything else, deal with the warlord first."

Su Yang gazed at her excited appearance, and a flash of light passed through his eyes.

Huang Hua saw the atmosphere was a bit dull, stood up, and said, "The grinder and the engineers have arrived; I'll take people to pick them up now."

"Good."

After the two left the bar, Lin Yang entered on their heels.

He pointed at the two and asked, "What's the situation? Why are they so fierce? Who provoked her?"

"Possessed, I guess," Su Yang said lightly.

"Ha?"

Su Yang looked at Yin Yun's back through the glass window, lost in thought.

Then he said, "Arrange for the Shadow Hall people to watch her; report any problems at any time."

"What happened?" Lin Yang asked curiously.

Su Yang pointed at the newspaper and said cryptically:

"I suspect she was possessed by something dirty last night." ===== CHAPTER 468 =====
