286: Chapter 286: nd One’s Ways 286: Chapter 286: nd One’s Ways “The two conditions I proposed earlier to Cheng Dihaou, I would still ask Mayor Lu for your assistance.”
As Lu Xinghe set aside the notes in his hand, Fang Bai spoke indifferently.
Lu Xinghe paused for a mont, then recalled the two conditions Fang Bai had ntioned earlier in the lobby on the first floor: the first was for Cheng Dihaou to surrender the ownership of the entertainnt club, which would be taken over by Fang Bai’s people; the second was for Cheng Dihaou to take his n and leave Zhongzhou City imdiately, never to set foot in Zhongzhou City for the rest of his life.
When Fang Bai had put forward these conditions, Shen Dongxing and Cheng Dihaou had strongly objected, and even Lu Xinghe had felt it was inappropriate.
But now, Lu Xinghe had no objections whatsoever.
Without Fang Bai, after this affair, Lu Xinghe’s career path, even if not completely cut off, would have been severely affected and turned bleak.
Now, with Fang Bai’s help, not only had Lu Xinghe cleansed the scourge of Cheng Dihaou, but he had also exposed Shen Dongxing and a large number of harmful elents.
This would undoubtedly earn him the appreciation and praise of the higher-ups, making his career path even more illustrious.
Lu Xinghe was clear in his heart that although he was the biggest beneficiary of this incident, the real credit went to Fang Bai, and therefore, it was necessary to reward Fang Bai.
Cheng Dihaou was guilty of heinous cris, and he was certainly facing capital punishnt this ti, his assets would also be seized.
Since Fang Bai wanted the “Dihao Entertainnt Club,” Lu Xinghe certainly wouldn’t be stingy—in ti, with so discreet maneuvering, it could be transferred to Fang Bai’s na.
Lu Xinghe thought that by handling this matter well, it was also an act of reciprocation, a way to thank Fang Bai.
“I will facilitate the first condition proposed by Mr.
Fang; however, I am powerless regarding the second condition,” Lu Xinghe said with a smile.
Fang Bai’s second condition was for Cheng Dihaou to leave Zhongzhou City imdiately with his n and never set foot in it again in his lifeti.
Now, since Cheng Dihaou had committed capital cris, he might not have a life to leave—there was no way for him to “leave” Zhongzhou City anymore.
As for Cheng Dihaou’s subordinates, Lu Xinghe did have the power to make them all leave Zhongzhou City.
Fang Bai also smiled, saying, “I didn’t originally want to be so ruthless towards Cheng Dihaou, but who would have thought he would commit such atrocious cris, walking the path to his own death.
That’s hardly my fault.”
The two returned to the office outside, dismissed people like Hu Biao, discussed so matters in secret, and then went back to the club’s lobby on the first floor together.
Fang Bai didn’t stay in the lobby.
He left with Ruan Hongpeng and others, while Lu Xinghe called over so relevant departnt heads to deal with Cheng Dihaou and Shen Dongxing’s matter, and to coordinate the arrest of corrupt officials connected to Cheng Dihaou.
The next day, both the political scene and the underworld of Zhongzhou City experienced a massive earthquake.
In the political arena, Mayor Lu Xinghe, with decisive asures, sent Shen Dongxing and a batch of corrupt officials to prison, while also promoting a group of honest and hardworking officials, refreshing the atmosphere of Zhongzhou City’s officialdom.
In the underworld, the most powerful “Hunter” leader, Cheng Dihaou, implicated in major cris, was arrested and was said to be unable to escape death; his minions fled or scattered, and the “Hunter” fell apart and ceased to exist.
Just as other underground forces were ready to move, planning to divide the mbers and territory of the “Hunter,” unexpectedly, Ruan Hongpeng, originally a small-ti thug from the West Suburb, made a sudden and strong rise.
With the help of a mysterious person, he swept past the major forces of Zhongzhou City’s underworld, taking over the “Dihao Entertainnt Club” and renaming it to “Red Leaf Entertainnt Club” to continue operations.
The reason for renaming it “Red Leaf” stems from the character ‘red’ in Ruan Hongpeng’s na and the last na Ye in his girlfriend Xiao Yan’s na, showing that this “Master Hong” truly adores his girlfriend.
“Xiao Ruan, from now on you will be in charge of the ‘Red Leaf Entertainnt Club’ and control the underground world of Zhongzhou.
Make sure you strictly manage your subordinates.
Prevent them from bullying the weak and participating in any immoral activities, and guide them toward the right path as much as you can.
If soone causes trouble without reason and targets you, don’t hold back—hit back hard!
If you encounter any problems you can’t handle, feel free to co to .”
On the day Ruan Hongpeng took over the ‘Dihao Entertainnt Club’, in the luxurious office on the top floor which used to belong to Cheng Dihaou, Fang Bai sat in the boss’s chair, addressing a respectfully standing Ruan Hongpeng and his girlfriend Ye Xiaoyan in front of him.
If people saw Ruan Hongpeng, who had beco a big shot in the Zhongzhou underground world and was respectfully known as “Master Hong”, and his girlfriend Ye Xiaoyan, acting like two obedient students in front of Fang Bai, they would definitely be in for a shock.
Ruan Hongpeng and Ye Xiaoyan had no choice but to obey and be respectful because they were well aware that their current status was granted by Fang Bai.
He could lift them to their current position and just as easily bring them back down to earth.
Furthermore, Fang Bai had bestowed upon each of them the “Marrow Cleansing Pill” and the “Creation Pill”, which transford them overnight into Yellow Level Martial Artists.
However, as their physiques differed from each other, so too did their cultivation progressions.
Ruan Hongpeng had reached the middle stage of Yellow Level while Ye Xiaoyan was at the initial stage of Yellow Level.
Nevertheless, Fang Bai taught them a dual cultivation technique that they could practice together.
With diligent cultivation, their strength would grow even stronger.
In the eyes of Ruan Hongpeng and Ye Xiaoyan, Fang Bai was akin to a living saint, playing a role in their rebirth, so their respect for him was deep-seated.
“Mr.
Fang, please rest assured, we will surely reform, do more good deeds, and not let down the cultivation and expectations you have set for us!”
After hearing Fang Bai’s “teachings”, Ruan Hongpeng and Ye Xiaoyan voiced their commitnt in unison.
Fang Bai nodded, stood up, patted Ruan Hongpeng’s shoulder and said, “With your current strength, you are more than capable of controlling Zhongzhou’s underground world.
However, the way of Martial Dao is like sailing against the current—you either advance or fall back.
During your spare ti, it’s best to cultivate more.
Alright, it’s getting late, I must go.”
“We will escort you out!”
Ruan Hongpeng and Ye Xiaoyan escorted Fang Bai to the club’s outer door, watched him drive away, and then returned inside.
……
Fang Bai stayed in Zhongzhou City for three days.
During these three days, he taught his father, Fang Gang, dical techniques, guided his sister, Fang Yun, in her cultivation, and occasionally went out to have als with Xia Chenyu and Ye Wui.
His schedule was quite packed.
In his past life, Fang Bai was the paragon of the dical field and the Invincible Immortal Emperor.
His understanding and insight into dicine and martial arts were rarely matched, often enlightening Fang Gang and Fang Yun with a few words, allowing them to make rapid progress in dical skills and martial arts.
Of course, Fang Bai did not neglect his own cultivation.
In that paradise-like valley, he had obtained the Marrow Cleansing Pill, Creation Pill, and Gathering Spirit Pill left behind by an Innate Martial Artist; he had given away so and consud the rest himself.
Although he had not advanced to the next level, his cultivation beca more profound and his spiritual sense more condensed.
