Chapter 26. instigate
Chapter: 4814 Words
With the help of the Sky Shaking Triad, it would be more convenient. The Sky Shaking Triad would definitely mobilize all of their manpower this time, which would be several thousand combat power. What I wanted was for the Sky Shaking Triad to restrain the black sun, not for them to directly fight against it. If they were to fight head-on, the Cold Moon Hall would be able to uproot the Sky Shaking Gang without much effort. The prerequisite was that the Cold Moon Hall was completely enraged and turned into a wild beast. In that case, they would use all their forces regardless of anything.
Jin and I ordered some takeout at home, ate some food, and went to bed early. I don't have much strength left after fighting so many times. He had to conserve his energy to maintain his physical and mental strength to fight against the Cold Moon Hall.
Ash and I slept on the same big bed. Due to our exhaustion, we quickly fell asleep.
In my dream, I dreamed that I was alone. I was dressed in military attire, heavy and gorgeous armor, and I held a crescent blade in my hand as I fought in the vast Gobi Desert.
Tens of thousands of fugitives, wearing armor and wielding halberds, rushed towards me. I kept swinging my saber and killing them.
There were corpses everywhere and blood flowed like a river…
Those unfamiliar yet furious faces only had one word in their eyes-"Kill"!
Either I die, or they die.
The gorgeous armor on her body had long been dyed even more gorgeous by blood. It was especially eye-catching in the vast Gobi Desert, like a blooming blood lotus.
His battle robe had long been torn into pieces, and his body was covered in wounds. The crescent blade in his hand kept slashing out, taking away the lives of others.
However, there were still endless saber lights slashing at me, and countless sharp halberds attacking my body…
Exhaustion, pain, helplessness, despair…
However, he had no choice but to fight.
It was three o'clock in the morning when he woke up from his sleep.
Beside him, Jin was sleeping soundly. I gently got up and took a bottle of beer from the fridge. I took a big gulp to calm my heart from the blood. The strange stone was still lying in my pocket.
I hated killing. Why couldn't I just live a simple life, do what I liked happily with my friends, and have a warm home?
I thought of my parents whom I hadn't seen in a long time and my heart ached. Other children should still be under the care of their parents, carefree. But I had to face the cruelty of blood. I was only sixteen years old!
Was she alright? I thought of her in the distance. I promised her that I would look for her and live an ordinary and happy life together with her…
Who knew how much he drank…
Drunk, completely drunk.
I vaguely felt an inexplicable grief and indignation occupy my entire body. Since killing had destroyed my peaceful life, then I would kill…
"Kaede…wake up." Someone was calling me. It took me a lot of effort to open my eyes. It was Jin calling me.
"How much did you drink last night?" Jin shouted. He was worried about me.
At this moment, my phone rang. Uncle Tai said that Xiao was rushing to a bar in the territory of the Punishment Hall and asked us to act according to plan. I immediately jumped up from the bed, put on my clothes, washed up, and ate the breakfast that Jin had prepared on the table. We went out and got into a taxi, heading straight to the area of the Punishment Hall.
The Imperial Nightclub was a high-end nightclub in the Evil Punishment Hall. It was daytime, so it was not open for business.
Arriving at the entrance of the nightclub, there were several burly men guarding the door. Xiao must have already gone in. Today, he was going to meet with a member of the Ghost Seal outer circle that Big Dipper had planted in the Hall of Malevolence to discuss the matter of usurping the position of Cold Moon Hall's hall master.
And we are going to incite him, to make Xiao act immediately, and at the same time, to make Shang prepare. We will make our move when both sides are defeated.
When we reached the entrance of the nightclub, a few big men blocked our way.
"Move aside! Didn't Murong Nuo tell you that we were coming?”Jin berated. When the few burly men heard Murong Nuo's name, they immediately made way. Ember and I entered the nightclub.
When they arrived at the second floor, they saw that it was filled with private rooms. Since they were not open for business during the day, they could quickly determine their location based on the sound.
We walked straight to the door of the most luxurious private room. Ash opened the door and we walked straight into the private room.
Xiao, who was sitting on the sofa, immediately jumped up with a shiny throwing knife in his hand. He originally thought that no one would know about his meeting with Murong Nuo. Moreover, our sudden appearance in the Evil Punishment Hall's area had given him a huge shock.
"Brother Xiao, Brother Murong." I greeted Ash. "Murong Nuo nodded at us."Brother Shangguan, Brother Dongfang."
Big Dipper told him about our situation beforehand and compared our statements.
I sized him up. He was about 1.85 meters tall and had a strong build. He was about 26 or 27 years old.
"Why are Brother Shangguan and Brother Dongfang here?”Xiao asked as he kept his flying knife. "Brother Murong asked us to come." I said. Xiao glanced at Murong Nuo, his eyes seeking confirmation. "Yes, I asked the two of you to come." Murong Nuo said.
Jin and I sat on Murong Nuo's left. Xiao's eyes were filled with unease. He really did not expect us to suddenly appear.
"Brother Murong, how did your discussion go?”I asked. Murong Nuo smiled.”Xiao was shocked,"You guys" I said lightly,"Brother Xiao, don't worry. There are no outsiders here. Brother Xiao is a great man of his generation, surely you are not willing to be a small incense master?”
Murong Nuo said to Xiao," Brother Xiao, you don't have to worry. Brother Shangguan and Brother Dongfang are here to help you become the Cold Moon Hall Master."”Xiao was shocked again.
"Brother Xiao, you didn't expect this, did you?" he asked. Xiao calmed down. As expected of a character at the Xixiong level. "Brother Shangguan and Dongfang are both people of high status, why would they help me?" he asked.”
Jin, Murong Nuo, and I exchanged glances. " Brother Murong and I are good friends," Jin said." We have long heard of Brother Xiao's reputation in the martial world. Only a talent like him can lead Cold Moon Hall to a higher level and serve the gang."”
"But I don't think it's that simple. Are there no conditions? How can I, Xiao, let the two brothers help me so much?”Xiao asked.
I said,"Brother Xiao is indeed smart, so I'll be straightforward." Among the twelve families, our two families are not as powerful as before. Our power has been greatly weakened. The president has not been a member of our two families for hundreds of years. Therefore, we want to restore the prestige of our family and expand our strength and status.”
"Are you trying to gather as many halls as possible in the sect and other sects to join in order to strengthen the clan?”Xiao asked. I nodded and Murong Nuo continued,""As long as brother Xiao works with us, his future will be limitless. At that time, not to mention Cold Moon Hall, it's not impossible for him to command several halls.”
Jin continued to encourage him." Only the four of us know about our cooperation. Let's not beat around the bush. After we help Brother Xiao take over Cold Moon Hall, we'll help Brother Murong become the Hall Master of the Hall of Punishment. As for Scarlet Flame Hall, we'll work together and take over the entire South District."”
"How is it, brother Xiao? I know brother Xiao's ambition. If we work together, we will definitely succeed.”Murong Nuo said.
Xiao's eyes were already filled with excitement. Even if he didn't agree, he was in the area of the Evil Punishment Hall and couldn't walk out alive. He should have thought of this.
He thought quietly, and it was obvious that he was very conflicted. He didn't know if he should believe us, but in the end, he nodded and agreed.
"Then we'll make our move tomorrow. Shang is still in bed, and his combat power must be extremely weak right now. With Brother Xiao's status in the Cold Moon Hall, he will definitely become the Hall Master.”As Murong Nuo spoke, she picked up a cup of wine and took a sip.
" So fast…" Xiao asked.
"Now that the Cold Moon Hall has gone through a few battles, they still haven't had time to catch their breath. "If we miss this opportunity, we'll have to kill Shang again. I'm afraid we both know Shang's combat strength, and Brother Xiao knows Cold Moon Hall's elite strength better than us…" Jin suggested.
"That's right, we've already made a plan for brother Xiao.”I also said.
Just like that, we persuaded Xiao Mingri to make his move. At this moment, I knew that Uncle Tai and the others had also begun their actions. According to the plan, they would create a false impression that Shang would suspect them, and then I would convince Shang that Xiao would rebel. The two of them would then turn against each other, and things would go smoothly…
Jin and I both believe that Uncle Tai and the others can do their best. Only by trusting each other can we continue the chain seamlessly.
"Brother Xiao, don't hesitate. Seize this opportunity. Don't tell me you don't trust us?”Murong Nuo said that ever since Xiao entered the underworld, he had heard of Murong Nuo. Later on, they became good friends and became the incense masters of the Cold Moon Hall and the Evil Punishment Hall. However, Xiao would never have thought that Murong Nuo was a peripheral member of Gui Fu.
" And this is something that we have only recently learned from the members of Gui Fu. Apart from those absolute experts, Gui Fu also has some peripheral members in various places. Although their strength cannot be compared to the official members, every single one of them is a true expert. Murong Nuo and the woman who is good at throwing knives are two of the peripheral members.
"Good! Tomorrow!" Xiao slammed his fist on the table. He had made up his mind to kill Shang at all costs tomorrow and take over the Cold Moon Hall. He had been waiting for this day for too long. The temptation of power had messed up his mind, making him unable to see that the trap was opening its bloody mouth towards him...
According to the plan, Xiao Mingri would bring 500 of his direct combat members, while Murong Nuo would bring 300 of the Evil Punishment Hall's elites to attack together. As for me and Jin, we used the excuse that our clan's experts had not returned from abroad, so we did not have any manpower for the time being. We only cooperated with them to kill Shang.
Xiao's confident eyes revealed a trace of uneasiness, but it was quickly replaced by killing intent and desire...
After the arrangements were made, we left the nightclub. Xiao went back to his own territory to arrange the manpower while Murong Nuo went to gather her own manpower. He naturally knew how to confuse Xiao, while Jin and I went straight to the new entrance of the Zhentian Gang-the "Milky Way" nightclub. At this moment, Mo Fei, Jing Muyan, Ye Qing, Luo Min, and a few other higher-ups of the Heaven Shaking Triad were sitting in the hall.
"How are your preparations coming along?”I asked Mo Fei after I sat down. "Don't worry, I'll pick you up according to plan.”he said. I nodded and looked at the current situation. Jing Muyan had already made them trust us completely.
"What do you plan to do?" Mo Fei asked. "Let Shang and Xiao fight. We will take the opportunity to completely wipe them out and take control of the Cold Moon Hall…" I explained the general process in front of me and made specific arrangements for their actions tomorrow before returning home with Jin.
The higher-ups of the Zhentian Gang were obviously unwilling to accept this. They wanted to tear us into pieces. The people of the underworld valued their reputation. They had been in the underworld for decades, but now they were being ordered around by two young men. However, they still chose to listen to my plans and arrangements.
We've spent the entire day leisurely. Now, all we have to do is wait, wait for the final opportunity.
Tomorrow will be a bloody battle. We have to do our best to adjust our state and comprehend the martial arts path that the old man mentioned.
The next day, we left early in the morning and went to the private hospital of the Cold Moon Hall.
The elites of the Cold Moon Hall who were guarding outside already recognized us, so we didn't face any obstruction.
Walking towards Shang's ward, there was a burly man standing guard every five meters along the way. With such tight security, how could ordinary people enter?
I knocked on the door." Brother Shang, I'm Brother Shangguan. I'm here to see you."”Shang responded and gestured for me to enter. I opened the door and entered with Jin.
Shang was standing in front of the window, stretching his shin bones. His recovery speed was so fast, and his wounds were healing in such a short time. It was enough to show his strong physique.
The private hospital of Cold Moon Hall was a hospital built by Black Sun with a lot of money. The medical equipment and medical conditions were all first-class. At most, it was slightly inferior to the hospitals in the military. Usually, the members of Cold Moon Hall, Scarlet Flame Hall, and Evil Spirit Hall would be sent here for treatment when they suffered from knife wounds or gunshot wounds.
"Brother Shang, how are your injuries?" I asked. Shang turned around." It's almost done. It's not a fatal injury. It's nothing serious."”
I pointed at Jin." This is my brother, Dongfang Yunshuo from the Dongfang family. This is the Cold Moon Hall Master, Brother Shang.”I introduced. The two of them shook hands and exchanged a few pleasantries.
"Brother Shang, we came here today for one thing.”I said. "What is it?" Shang asked. "Last night, we received an email from a stranger. There was a tape and a note inside. It said that we must give this tape to Brother Shang, so we brought it for you. It should be something very important.”I took out a tape and handed it to Shang.
It recorded our conversation with Xiao yesterday. However, through post-processing, the voices of Jin, Murong Nuo, and I were changed.
"This is…" Shang took the belt. "I'm not too sure either. Let's listen to it quickly. It might be something very important.”said Jin. I instructed a member of the Cold Moon Hall who was guarding the door. Five minutes later, he brought a player over.
Shang placed the tape inside and listened quietly. What Xiao had said and what Uncle Tai and the others had created yesterday had confirmed Shang's guess-Xiao seizing the throne.
" Brother Shang, Brother Xiao, he…" I pretended to be confused.
Shang's expression became more and more serious. A murderous intent shot out from his eyes.
" Interesting…interesting…interesting…" Shang said three interesting words.
" Brother Shang, Xiao is really…" I pretended to be extremely distrustful. "Actually, I should have known that Xiao is extremely scheming. Yesterday, his subordinates were discussing how to let him establish his authority in the hall. I just didn't expect him to be so fast…"
"Brother Shang, they are going to attack today, so we have to be fully prepared to catch all the traitors in one fell swoop."”"Of course. I'll deploy it immediately. Xiao must have planted a spy here. He should know my every move, but he probably doesn't have the mood to care about it now.”
At this moment, no matter how meticulous Shang was, he did not have much time to think. Moreover, this matter had struck his heart with a heavy pain.
"Brother Shang, let us take the flute today. You haven't fully recovered, so you don't have to go personally.”I said. Shang patted my shoulder." No, I want to fight him personally today."”From his tone, we could already sense a thick murderous intent.
Shang made a phone call, and 15 minutes later, 10 men in black stood respectfully in the ward. After Shang gave them the arrangements for the ambush, they went to prepare themselves. Jin and I went to find Xiao. According to Shang, I wanted to lure them into the trap.
Xiao was currently in one of his own bars. At this moment, Xiao was sitting together with a few of his trusted aides in a discussion.
"Brother Shangguan, Brother Dongfang." Xiao greeted. We sat together and made the final arrangements.
Xiao made a phone call and arranged for all the participants to gather on this street immediately.
In less than ten minutes, the originally empty street was filled with 500 men in black who were wielding machetes. They were all Xiao's direct subordinates, elites who had gone through all kinds of battles. Each of them had a cold expression, and only killing intent remained in their solemn eyes. They were people who only listened to Xiao.
Xiao didn't say anything solemn. He walked straight to the front and took a machete from one of his lackeys. He held it in his hand and strode forward. Jin and I also took the machete that we had prepared beforehand and followed Xiao on both sides. The 500 men in black followed us like this. No one spoke, no one spoke, only a solemn killing intent...
