Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

Those two hundred people knew Jianghu law better than anyone else, and every single one of them did not have the bravery to defy their sentences with Chen Xiaobei and Xiangyu looking over their shoulders.

Soon, they took out the knives and blades they carried with them and executed their own sentences. Fingers and arms littered the floor, and there was soon enough blood flowing to form a river.

The two hundred had thus redeemed themselves.

"There are two more traitors left!" Third Elder announced. The elderly man had deliberately waited until most of his former brethren had punished themselves before stating the crimes of Gu Caozhuo and Qiu Hairui. 

"Qiu Hairui! Gu Chaozuo! Both of you committed grievous offences! The two of you scorned your leaders and incited others to turn against the faction! For that, the two of you will be stabbed a thousand times; everyone in league with them are to execute these traitors too!"

With that, Third Elder tossed away the paper which listed the name of every traitor and their punishment and walked with the five elderly key members towards the pair with short knives brandished.

Though these six aged men appeared harmless and kindly, they were the respected and experienced elites in Jianghu. Not a single shred of doubt and hesitation showed on their face as they skewered the two traitors.

The six men also took care to leave three knives apiece on the two of them as blood spurted out from their other gaping wounds. Their blood-curdling screams of agony filled the room, although everyone was also baffled by the elders.

Why did they leave their knives behind?

One of the smarter ones in the room realized Third Elder's intention instantly.

"I understand now! Third Elder mentioned that those in league with them can stab them too! Third Elder is giving us a chance to join them again!"

Walking over to Gu Caozhuo and Qiu Hairui, the other mobsters took out the knives and stabbed them again!

"Those in league with them can stab them too! Those in league with them can stab them too!"

Soon, everyone did the same, and Gu Caozhuo and Qiu Hairui finally died from a thousand stabs – their corpses were unrecognizable.

"Every single one of you can now rejoin the faction since you've taken up arms against these traitors! We will look past every sin you've committed and promise that those things would never be held against you.

"However, I shall make something clear! You will end up like and Gu Caozhuo and Qiu Hairui if you betray us again! I don't think anyone here would want to end up like these two, right?!"

"We will never betray the faction again! We will remember everything that happened today! We won't pull this stupid stunt again!" The reborn faction members loudly declared their renewed allegiance.

They were sincerely grateful that Third Elder was willing to look over what they had done against the faction, and there was none who would pull a heel-face turn with Chen Xiaobei and Xiangyu standing over them.

Every other small-time factions in the room were stunned as they watched the strongest faction in Green Vine City rise again!

"Finally, I have one last announcement to make." Third Elder continued to say sternly, "I'm old now, and therefore I'm unable to lead the faction anymore. After some long and hard deliberation, I have decided to hand over my leadership to a young man!"

Everyone quickly turned to Chen Xiaobei at Third Elder's words. There was no doubt that none except him could replace Murong Tian as the king of Green Vine City's underworld! There was none who would disagree with that notion.

However, Third Elder's decision was one that none had expected!

"From today onwards, Fire Boss will take over all my authority and responsibility!" He said with a deep voice. "I hope everyone here can work together with him!"

Initially, everyone was stunned, but they soon understood the intention behind this move.

This faction might be the most influential and powerful in Green Vine City, but it had virtually no influence in other places! Chen Xiaobei was far more ambitious than that – he would never let a little group in Green Vine City tie him down!

Furthermore, all in Jianghu knew that Chen Xiaobei essentially bosses Fire Boss around; when he finally becomes the kingpin of Green Vine City, Chen Xiaobei would be behind, pulling the strings.

"We understand! We will cooperate with Fire Boss! We'll never act against the faction again!"

Every individual in the room resolved to serve Fire Boss, while really envying him at the same time. He began life as a random street hoodlum but was now the most powerful underworld crime lord in Green Vine City thanks to Chen Xiaobei! It was a legendary tale to be told to future generations!

Thus, the death of Gu Caozhuo and Qiu Hairui marked the end of chaos in Green Vine City. The sourcᴇ of this content is novelenglish.net . Fɪre

With that, everything was settled.

Leaving Fire Boss to straighten things out, Chen Xiaobei brought Wenyuan, Xiangyu, and Murong Xiaoyao to the first-class lounge of the cruise liner to relax after the crazy night.

The ship finally reached port around midnight.

Xiangyu had no place to stay, so he followed Chen Xiaobei home. It was the same with Wenyuan, although she followed Murong Xiaoyao to her mansion.

The next morning…

Chen Xiaobei introduced Xiangyu to his parents, saying that he was Yap Liangchen's brother and that he had to stay here for a few days because his house was under renovation.

Both did not feel comfortable having another stranger under their roof. However, Xiangyu appeared straight and honest, and they quickly decided that he had no ill-intent. Furthermore, they were too lazy to ask any more questions, and so they simply allowed him to stay.

Chen Xiaobei checked on Yap Lianchen after dealing with his parents. "Anything happen while I wasn't here?" he asked.

"Yeah." Yap Liangchen nodded. "Two useless assassins came to your house. I killed them and used the Body Dissolving Poison to melt their bodies." 

Chen Xiaobei exploded in fury by the news.

"F*cking Meichuan Zhizhang!" he screamed. "So, you tried to kill my parents when you failed to locate me! Just you wait! I'm coming to Japan sooner or later to f*cking kill you!"

"Bro Bei, when are you planning to go to Japan to take his head? I can make the proper arrangements!" Yap Liangchen offered.

"There's no rush. Stay here and continue protecting my parents, I have some other small matters to attend to!" Chen Xioabei said and waved him off. There was not much else that Meichuan Zhizhang could do at the moment after all, and Yap Liangchen would simply snuff out every pathetic assassin he sends after his parents.

He took out his cellphone to check on his Weibo; he still had six hundred thousand fans. It seems that they did not leave even after he spent all his merit points.

"It seems like the number of my fans will remain as long as I don't do any bad stuff!" Chen Xiaobei said.

Then, finally calming down, he unlocked his treasure chest to take a look at some of his new items.
