Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 41: Giving You Face!

"What’s the matter? Are you dissatisfied?"

"Do you intend to make a move against ?"

Luo Zheng chuckled instantly.

If this fisherman dared to make a move against him, he wouldn’t mind adding another soul to his record.

It would be an opportunity to warn the other fishern here.

"No, how could I possibly dare to fight Lord Luo? I wouldn’t do it even if I had tiger gall."

"Besides, I wouldn’t dare, because Lord Luo is a Martial Artist."

"So I will prepare triple the monthly salary and hope Lord Luo can go easy on and spare my life."

Jiang Fan decided to endure for now, not wanting to make a move openly, hoping the other party would not be ungrateful.

"This kid."

Luo Zheng’s eyes showed a hint of coldness. For so reason, he felt this kid posed so threat.

On the surface, he seed submissive.

But in reality, it seed he didn’t take him seriously.

Just a small fisherman, Luo had really given him face.

"Lord Luo, the Gang Leader has sent a ssage, asking us to return soon."

"It seems sothing major has occurred."

At that mont, soone suddenly rushed over from outside the village, looking panicked as though sothing had happened, quickly speaking to Luo Zheng.

He spoke quietly into Luo Zheng’s ear about the gang’s news.

What?!

On hearing this, Luo Zheng’s expression changed, aware that the situation for the Dragon King Gang hadn’t been good recently.

After all, the Red Eyebrow Army was causing trouble, and the Court’s forces were retreating steadily.

If the Red Eyebrow Army were to invade Tonghe County, the Dragon King Gang would be the first to suffer.

At that ti, they all would face disaster.

Therefore, he could no longer afford to entangle himself with the fishern here.

Without saying a word, Luo Zheng waved his hand and quickly led his n away.

He had already issued his order.

Next ti he returns, it will be for real.

If these fishern don’t recognize reality, then they can’t bla him for being rciless.

"Hey, Xiaojiang, you should pack your things and leave quickly."

"Indeed, having offended Luo Zheng, you probably won’t be able to live here any longer."

"Living elsewhere might still offer a chance."

Many fishern looked at Jiang Fan with sympathy.

After all, offending Luo Zheng, a Dragon King Gang Elder, ant it was impossible to continue living here.

Only by leaving and living elsewhere could there be a glimr of hope.

Of course, their situation wasn’t much better.

Since they couldn’t afford either the single or triple monthly salary.

"Thank you, uncles, for the reminder, I’ll be cautious."

Jiang Fan nodded, not wanting to say more to the villagers, knowing it was pointless.

He turned and walked towards the outskirts of the village.

This ti, he wanted to catch up with the Dragon King Gang and eradicate them.

He couldn’t wait any longer.

"This guy is indeed a toxin."

"The Dragon King Gang are all peas in a pod."

"From top to bottom, there’s not a single decent one."

Jiang Fan’s eyes flashed with coldness, having already decided to kill.

Even though he still had quite a amount of silver taels, just enough to support the monthly salary.

But if things continued, all the money would be taken by the Dragon King Gang.

Also, Luo Zheng’s ambition was like a bottomless pit, no amount of money could satisfy him.

At that point, the entire Osmanthus Village might be driven into a desperate situation by him.

Whether for Osmanthus Village or for himself, this person had to die.

More importantly, Luo Zheng had already set his sights on him, with little chance of resolving the conflict.

Swoosh!

In a flash, Jiang Fan began to chase after Luo Zheng and his n.

Having advanced to the Strong Sinew Realm, his speed was incredibly fast, like a leopard.

In terms of speed, it was comparable to a horse.

...

It wasn’t long before Luo Zheng and his n boarded a carriage.

After all, the Dragon King Gang’s headquarters was in Tonghe County, and the nearby Fish Cage was just a branch.

So when sothing major happened in the gang, they would return to Tonghe County for discussions.

Besides, Osmanthus Village was twenty miles from Tonghe County.

If they walked, it would definitely take a significant amount of ti.

So they mainly traveled by carriage, which was convenient and saved energy.

Of course, one carriage could only carry four or five people.

There weren’t enough carriages here.

Others had no choice but to walk back to Tonghe County.

At this ti, a Dragon King Gang mber drove the carriage, taking Luo Zheng and others towards Tonghe County.

"Lord Luo, do you know why the Gang Leader suddenly summoned us?"

"Why so abruptly?"

One of the subordinates asked curiously, as it was the first ti he saw Luo Zheng looking so grim.

"The Court’s tens of thousands of troops were defeated, the Red Eyebrow Army won."

"Supposedly, an army of one hundred thousand Red Eyebrow soldiers is headed towards Tonghe County."

"Undoubtedly, their aim is Tonghe County."

"And our Dragon King Gang is the local powerhouse, which the Red Eyebrow Army hates the most."

"So once the Red Eyebrow Army arrives, what do you think will happen to our gang?"

Luo Zheng asked rhetorically.

Though he didn’t spell out the conclusion, none present were fools, naturally understanding the implication of their boss.

A new power seeking to establish itself would certainly need to eliminate the existing dominant force.

And the Dragon King Gang was a thorn in the Red Eyebrow Army’s side.

At that ti, as mbers of the Dragon King Gang, they would likely all face doom.

Each face turned ashen.

They initially thought that joining the Dragon King Gang would allow them to dominate the area.

With no one daring to provoke them.

But in the blink of an eye, they had beco scorned, targeted everywhere.

If the Red Eyebrow Army arrived, they might not even have a place to rest in peace.

"Lord Luo, what do we do now?"

Many couldn’t help but swallow nervously and said in panic.

"Don’t worry, the Gang Leader foresaw this and has summoned us Elders back."

"As I suspect, we may need to retreat to Yunze Prefecture."

"Maybe heading to the Prefecture City."

Luo Zheng said solemnly.

Heading to the Prefecture City?!

Once this was spoken, everyone’s eyes lit up.

If they stayed in Tonghe County, it was certainly a dead end.

But retreating to the Prefecture City was entirely different.

Even if the Red Eyebrow Army was fierce, they couldn’t invade the Prefecture City anyti soon.

"It seems you all understand the Gang Leader’s effort."

"I estimate that this ti the Gang Leader intends for us to retreat and avoid the Red Eyebrow Army’s edge."

"Don’t worry, the Court’s army has been defeated, but it’s only a part of their force."

"The real main force hasn’t deployed yet."

"Once the Court’s main force moves out, the Red Eyebrow Army will be annihilated."

"Then we’ll return to Tonghe County."

Luo Zheng spoke bluntly.

"But if that’s the case, we’ll have to abandon our interests here temporarily?"

So subordinates hesitated and said.

After all, losing the Fish Cage’s interests ant no more exploiting the fishern, and their lives wouldn’t be as good.

"Foolish, it’s just a temporary sacrifice."

"For the Dragon King Gang, talent is the most important."

"As long as the people are still there, the territory will be reclaid eventually."

"Let the Red Eyebrow Army have this place for now."

"We’ll definitely reclaim Tonghe County eventually."

Luo Zheng sneered.
