Chapter 1237: Asking For Help

“What is it?” Cang Di and Song Yu asked in unison.

They were curious about the Dragon gang leader’s words.

‘Is he going to give us a lot of money?’

That was the question that appeared in their minds. 

They were both gang leaders, so they were always thinking about money. 

In their eyes, money was the most important thing in the world because, with money, they could do and buy anything.

“After we destroy Xiao Tian’s gang, there will be two empty spots in the top four gangs in Shanghai because his gang is currently ranked third out of the big four gangs.” The masked man responded, “I promise to help you get to these two empty stops after we destroy the gang.”

Song Yu and Cang Di began to carefully think about the masked man’s words.

‘So, it’s not money!’

Of course, they knew that his offer was good.

Since a long time ago, becoming the top four big gangs in Shanghai had been their dream, so this opportunity piqued their interest.

Not only that but being in the top four of the big gangs in Shanghai would make them earn more money too.

“How can we be sure you won’t lie to us later?” Song Yu did not easily believe the masked man’s words because everyone could lie.

Like Song Yu, Cang Di also did not believe the masked man’s words. That was why he carefully paid attention to the masked man because he wanted to hear the answer.

“That’s right.” Cang Di added. “And you are also wearing a mask now. This makes it even harder for us to trust you.”

Cang Di and Song Yu wanted to see the Dragon gang leader’s face because they knew that he always wore a mask.

“How about we make an agreement document later?” the masked man voiced out his idea. “And I don’t mind showing my face later, but I want to hear your answer first.”

“Young master, you shou-” the butler and Fu Rou wanted to stop their leader when he said he would show his face later.

The masked man instantly gave a signal to stop saying anything. 

Xiao Tian was one of the people he desired to kill, so he did not mind showing his face to Song Yu and Cang Di.

As long as he could take revenge on Xiao Tian and his family, he would do anything, including showing his face to Song Yu and Cang Di.

Song Yu and Cang Di exchanged a glance with each other before finally nodding their heads. “We agreed to help you.”

“Great!” the masked man smiled after hearing their words. “Now, I will show you my face.”

The expression of deep shock blossomed on Song Yu and Cang Di’s faces when they saw the face of the Dragon gang leader.

“You have an interesting face there!” Cang Di said after seeing the Dragon gang leader’s face.

“It seems like you have been through many hard times.” Song Yu added, “No wonder you are the leader of the strongest gang in Shanghai.”

The Dragon gang leader put on his mask again. “Now, let’s move to the next topic.”

The following morning, Xiao Tian went to the Blue Ice Lotus gang headquarters after having breakfast with his women.

“Where is Mu Hou?” Xiao Tian did not see Mu Hou since he arrived at this gang base.

“Leader, instructor Mu Hou suddenly left not long after he arrived at our base.” one of Xiao Tian’s underlings responded, “He also took five people with him earlier.”

“Hmm? Did he say where he was going?” Xiao Tian inquired.

“He did not say anything and immediately left earlier.” his underlings answered.

Coincidently, Mu Hou and five of the Shadow gang members arrived at their base.

“Boss, I have something important to tell you.” Mu Hou spoke when he was in front of Xiao Tian.

“Let’s go to the living room first.” Xiao Tian replied.

Mu Hou nodded his head. 

After sitting on the couch, Xiao Tian inquired, “What is it?”

“Their leader is like you.” Mu Hou gave an ambiguous.

“What do you mean by that?” Xiao Tian did not understand the meaning of Mu Hou’s words.

“He is a candidate to be the Ruler like you.” Mu Hou was also shocked when he found out that the leader of the Dragon gang was a candidate to be the Ruler like Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian was still a martial artist at the high-level master stage, but he stated he could defeat ordinary martial artists at the low-level grandmaster stage.

He even said he had a chance of winning a fight against a powerful martial artist at the low-level grandmaster stage who had gained insight into battle instinct.

The leader of the Dragon gang was like Xiao Tian. He was also a martial artist at the high-level master stage like Xiao Tian.

There was only one meaning to this.

The leader of the Dragon gang could also defeat a martial artist at the low-level grandmaster stage!

If they added the butler, this meant they had two martial artists whose strength was at the peak of the low-level grandmaster stage.

Xiao Tian did not expect this. He knew how strong the candidates to be the Ruler was because he was one of them.

“Boss, I have another unpleasant news.” Mu Hou got two big news earlier.

Xiao Tian had an unpleasant feeling after hearing Mu Hou’s words. “What is it?”

“It’s like this….” Mu Hou began explaining.

When he was gathering information earlier, he saw fifteen people from the Turtle gang and ten people from the Crocodile gang trying to join the Dragon gang.

They wanted to join the Dragon gang in exchange for freedom.

Among these twenty-five people, thirteen of them were martial artists at the low-level master stage, while the others were at the high-level apprentice stage.

Mu Hou had no choice but to kill them because they wanted to reveal their plan to the Dragon gang, including their strengths.

“I did not expect them to do that so quickly.” Xiao Tian did not mind when Mu Hou said he had killed these twenty-five people.

Turtle gang and Crocodile gang were the gangs who refused to be his slaves until the end. This was the reason why he killed half of them.

Xiao Tian just did not expect that they wanted to take revenge on him so quickly like that. “We have to place some people to monitor them later.”

“So, what should we do now?” Mu Hou inquired, “We had lost twenty-five people even before the war started, and thirteen of them were skilled in martial arts. Our strength is weaker than before now.”

“It’s fine.” Xiao Tian did not mind it. 

Mu Hou was startled by Xiao Tian’s words. 

Previously, he thought Xiao Tian would be disappointed and tell him to conquer more gangs, but he was wrong. 

“How is the progress of the truck modification?” previously, Xiao Tian ordered Mu Hou to modify two of their trucks because they would use them to destroy the iron door later.

Yes, he ordered Mu Hou to modify the front part of their trucks!

“It’s almost done! I’m sure we can destroy the iron door in one hit later.” Mu Hou believed that they could destroy the iron door easily later because he was modifying their trucks like destroyer trucks.

Xiao Tian rose to his feet before saying, “Let’s go to the front yard now. I want to say something to my underlings.”

“Alright.” Mu Hou nodded his head.

When Xiao Tian was in the front yard, he immediately shouted, “Everyone, gather in front of me now!”

One by one, Xiao Tian’s underlings stood in front of him. They were curious about what he wanted to say to them.

Of course, they were sure it was related to the war because they would attack the Dragon gang soon.

“The preparation is almost done!” Xiao Tian shouted again. “I want you all to recall the Shadow Moon Records I created two months ago. I want all of you to fight based on that Shadow Moon Records later. Do you understand?”

“Understand, leader.” Xiao Tian’s underlings replied in unison.

Dragon Gang Headquarters, Living Room.

“Young master, everything is ready.” The butler uttered, “We only need to wait for Xiao Tian and his gang now.”

“Good!” the masked man’s lips curled up into a grin.

‘Xiao Tian, hurry up and come to me. I’m waiting for you.’

He added in his mind.
