The courtyard was wide and deep.
After passing through a few corridors, the purple-dressed woman suddenly called out," Father, Father, are you home? Someone is looking for you!"
Jiang Dao's mouth twitched.
As expected!
He had guessed correctly!
This was actually his distant cousin!
To be honest, he didn't even know the other party's name.
"Miss…Miss, may I know who you are?"
Jiang Dao couldn't help but ask.
"My name is Yang Ziyan."
The purple-dressed woman turned around and smiled.
"So it's cousin Ziyan. Please forgive me for my rudeness earlier!”
Jiang Dao cupped his hands.
"Haha…"
The purple-robed woman smiled lightly, feeling that it was quite interesting.
"Ziyan? What's wrong?"
Suddenly, a man's voice sounded from the courtyard.
A short and thin man wearing a green robe walked out from the courtyard.
"Father, someone is looking for you. Do you know him?”
Yang Ziyan responded and quickly walked towards the man in green.
The green-robed man was slightly stunned when he saw Jiang Dao. He felt that Jiang Dao's face was somewhat familiar. He suddenly reacted and asked," You…you're from Feng Province?" It's…it's Dao 'er?"
Two days ago, Jiang Dalong had written to him, saying that his eldest son, Jiang Dao, was coming to seek refuge with him, hoping that he could introduce him to the Blazing Flame Gang.
"Little nephew Jiang Dao greets uncle!"
Jiang Dao cupped his hands.
"You're indeed a Taoist. Good boy, after not seeing you for so many years, you've grown so tall!”
The green-robed man revealed a look of joy and said," Not bad, not bad. You can be considered an adult. You want to join the Blazing Flames Gang?”
"Yes, please introduce me to him.”
Jiang Dao said.
"Although the Raging Flames Gang takes in many people every year, those who are not good at martial arts have no future in there. They are only hired thugs.”
Yang Xu asked.
"Father, he's very powerful. We encountered bandits on the way, at least hundreds of them. The leader was a repeat offender with a curly beard and a nine-ringed machete in his hand.”
Yang Ziyan immediately whispered in her father's ear.
"Could it be the bearded guest Guo Biao? Is he dead?"
Yang Xu was shocked.
"Yes, it's a tragic sight."
Yang Ziyan's beautiful eyes were full of energy.
"Good boy, Dao 'er, if you really have such strength, you can at least become a hall master in the Raging Flames Gang. However, after all, what you hear is false. Can you show me what you have?”
Yang Xu looked at Jiang Dao with bright eyes.
Jiang Dao immediately understood and nodded." Alright, but I've learned too many things. I'll try my claw skills."”
His gaze swept around and suddenly landed on a stone table in the courtyard. He walked forward and his five fingers were as fast as lightning as he suddenly grabbed.
A large piece of the sturdy marble table was immediately grabbed off by him, as if it was cotton, effortlessly.
What was even more terrifying was that Jiang Dao clenched his fist.
The piece of marble in his hand was crushed by a giant hammer. It made cracking sounds and turned into stone chips in Jiang Dao's hand.
Jiang Dao loosened his grip, and the white stone fragments scattered all over the ground.
"How is this strength?"
He turned around and asked.
Yang Xu was dumbfounded as if he had seen a ghost.
Crush the stone into powder!
This was like crushing a rock into powder!
How could he achieve this without practicing for forty to fifty years?
He quickly revealed a look of ecstasy as he smiled and said," What good claw skills. Dao 'er, with your strength, you will definitely have a bright future in the Blazing Flames Gang. Come over, I have something to tell you. This time, we might be rich."”
With a pleasant expression, he immediately led Jiang Dao to the study.
"Father, what about me?"
Yang Ziyan asked.
"Go back to your room and rest first."
Yang Xu waved his hand.
Not long after, Jiang Dao arrived at an ancient-styled study.
Yang Xu smiled and immediately gestured for Jiang Dao to take a seat. He rubbed his hands together and said with a smile," Dao 'er, to be honest, just a few days ago, two of our Raging Flames Gang's leaders died. According to the rules of the gang, all the core members are now qualified to recommend talents that they like, and the final decision will be decided by the martial arts competition.
The final victor can choose one of these two positions. Since you have such strength, I'm prepared to report your name. What do you think?”
Jiang Dao's eyes lit up. He stood up and cupped his fists." If that's the case, thank you, Uncle!"”
"Quickly sit down, there's no need to be polite with me!”
Yang Xu smiled and gestured for Jiang Dao to take a seat." However, during the competition, knives and spears have no eyes. You must be careful and not get injured!”
"I will definitely do my best!"
Jiang Dao said.
"Hmm, in that case, you can stay with me first. I'll register you immediately!”
Yang Xu smiled.
He hurriedly walked to the side, took out a piece of paper, rubbed the ink, and began to write.
In fact, his actions were not entirely for Jiang Dao.
A large part of it was for himself.
Although he was in charge of the entire dock, he had no one in the gang after all. He had to rely on others to do anything. Even a random deacon from above could scold him like a dog.
Who knows, his family might be destroyed one day!
If he could elect Jiang Dao as the Hall Master, he would be able to protect Jiang Dao from now on.
This way, his days would be even more comfortable.
This was a win-win situation!
Soon, he finished writing a recommendation letter.
Yang Xu smiled slightly and said," Dao 'er, I'll get the servants to arrange a room for you. I'll send the recommendation letter to the sect now. I have to say that you came at a good time because today is the deadline. After today, it'll be impossible for you to run for the position of the hall master again!”
"Thank you, Uncle!"
Jiang Dao cupped his hands again.
Yang Xu immediately called for his servants to lead Jiang Dao away. Then, he took the recommendation letter and hurried out of the house towards the headquarters of the Blazing Flame Gang.
Jiang Dao temporarily stayed at Yang Xu's place.
The room that Yang Xu had prepared for him was indeed not bad. It was simple and luxurious. It was equipped with maids and all kinds of daily necessities.
It was evening.
Yang Xu finally returned from outside.
As soon as he came back, he went to see Jiang Dao immediately with a smile." Dao 'er, the recommendation letter has been sent up. The competition will be held in two days. I'll take you there then."”
"Thank you, Uncle."
Jiang Dao stood up again to express his gratitude.
"Your father and I grew up together. We're not biological brothers, but we're more like biological brothers. From now on, you can just call me Third Uncle.”
Yang Xu smiled.
Jiang Dao hesitated for a moment before nodding." Alright, thank you, Third Uncle!”
Yang Xu was extremely satisfied. He nodded slightly and said," By the way, let me tell you about the current standards of the Raging Flames Gang. The Raging Flames Gang is now the largest gang in the entire southern part of Daye Dynasty. We have more than 20,000 regular members, and our members are spread all over the six continents and 18 cities.
From top to bottom, they were divided into Sect Leader, Vice Sect Leader, Left and Right Guardians, Nine Hall Masters, and Eighteen Deacons. This time, the vacant Hall Masters were the Flying Eagle Hall Master and the Black Tiger Hall Master!
The two hall masters controlled different areas in Qianyuan City. The Soaring Eagle Hall controlled the southwest area, which was surrounded by rich businessmen and gentry, and there were many profits to be made. The Black Tiger Hall controlled the northeast area of the city, which was mostly poor and coolies. It was surrounded by coal mines and iron mines, which was a typical slum.
Therefore, you'd better run for the position of the hall master of the Soaring Eagle Hall this time!”
Jiang Dao nodded lightly." It's all up to Third Uncle!”
" Yes, there's one more thing. I just heard that there are 11 people running for the two hall masters. Two of them are extremely fierce. It's said that they've reached the Blood-boiling Realm in martial arts and are unfathomable. One of them is called Fei Bin, who's good at using the 49 moves of the Thunder Palm. The other is called Luo Peng, the Iron Man. He's trained fiercely and is invulnerable. You must be careful when you encounter them.”
Yang Xu said.
"I will."
Jiang Dao said," Third Uncle, you said that these two Hall Masters died not long ago. How did they die? With their strength and identity, would there be anyone in Qianyuan City who dared to kill them?”
At the mention of this matter, Yang Xu's expression suddenly changed. He sighed softly, and there was some fear in his eyes.
"The ones who killed them weren't humans…"
"Not human?"
Jiang Dao blinked.
Evil Spirit?
Fierce monsters?
Or was it a spirit exorcist?
