Honey, you didn't really drugged me, did you?-Chapter 365 - 144 What 94 Youve managed Energy

Chapter 365 -144 What? 94 You’ve managed Energy Transformation?_2

However, overall strength should be slightly weaker than Peng Shizhong, and even less so compared to Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai who have already entered the Late Stage of Energy Transformation.

Of course, this presupposes that Chen Jie doesn’t use the “Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms”. If he were to use the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms, Chen Jie felt he should be stronger than Peng Shizhong, but still weaker than Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai.

However, if these two wanted to kill him, it would not be possible without a cost.

Chen Jie bid farewell to Doctor Bai and Wu Hong.

Wu Hong then rode a horse to Lin City to capture Huadie.

Huadie was very important; she was a crucial witness.

Chen Jie, on the other hand, quickly packed and, donning a conical hat, headed straight for Mianshui City.

This time his return was very composed, completely different from his mindset when he fled Mianshui City.

Fleeing Mianshui City back then was a scramble, but now, still a fugitive, he was returning like a king.

I, Chen Jiusi, swear, once I enter the city today, I will not allow anyone to drive me out of the city again!

This Mianshui City will sooner or later belong to me, Chen Jiusi!

…

White Tiger Hall, meeting hall!

“I disagree!”

Peng Fu slammed his hand on the table and stood up, “Feng Xuan, I have no objection to you being Hall Master, but Nan Lake was seized back with our brothers’ lives at stake. Why should we cede it to the gang and also Yongchang Street? That’s our stronghold, and you’re simply handing it over to Eagle Hall?”

“And that iron mine, that was an asset that the Old Hall Master fought for with his life. Why are we giving up on it now? What has White Tiger Hall become—a dog for the main hall?”

Peng Fu smacked the table and shouted angrily.

At this time, another member at the meeting, the leader of the Twelve Eagle Guards, also slammed the table and said, “Yes, Old Master, the Old Hall Master was murdered, but our White Tiger Hall can’t just fall apart. We are not a vassal to the main hall, and we are certainly not their dogs. No, this cannot stand. We disagree. None of these three locations can be conceded; we cannot just let others reap the benefits of White Tiger Hall’s possessions for free.”

“Exactly, Old Master, you can’t just turn your elbow out. That day when Eagle Hall came to take over Yongchang Street, they came and beat people up. Third Master couldn’t stand it and fought back against a few blind fools. Qin Ying ended up breaking both of Third Master’s legs. Third Master is still in a wheelchair now. You can’t just ignore this!”

“Yes, yes, Old Master, you can’t ignore this. Since when has White Tiger Hall ever suffered such humiliation? If the Old Hall Master were still here, we wouldn’t be so humiliated!”

…

A group of core members of White Tiger Hall, the managers, were making a noisy fuss. Feng Xuan’s concessions were too significant, they would shake White Tiger Hall to its core.

Hence, the collective sentiment was highly charged.

However, only one person sat quietly in the corner without saying a word, and that was Sixth Brother Zhou Chu.

He remained silent.

Feng Xuan swept his eyes around the room, finally fixing his gaze on Zhou Chu. Zhou Chu was Chen Jie’s confidant; perhaps it was best to start with him!

“Sixth Brother, what are your thoughts?”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chu turned and glanced at Feng Xuan before saying, “Heh, Big Brother, you know me, not proficient in literature or martial arts. What thoughts could I possibly have? I just know that Big Brother’s thoughts are definitely correct, and I fully support Big Brother.”

Feng Xuan said, “Not right though, Sixth Brother. People tell me when you were with Fifth Brother, you had many ideas. How come you have no ideas now? Don’t tell me you have an opinion about me, the Old Master.”

Zhou Chu put on a smiling face and said, “Hey, Big Brother, what kind of talk is that? How could Chen Jiu compare with Big Brother? Following him was just foolishness. Thinking back, I regret not realizing it sooner. Big Brother, don’t make fun of me anymore.”

Feng Xuan looked at him and continued, “You really don’t think I’m doing anything wrong?”

“Big Brother’s decisions must be based on deeper considerations. How could I rashly criticize my superior?”

“Nan Lake is your territory, aren’t you willing to part with it so easily?”

Zhou Chu said, “Heh, what is ‘my territory’? That belongs to White Tiger Hall, and since Big Brother is the Hall Master, it’s also Big Brother’s territory. It’s only right Big Brother takes it back now.”

“Besides, Big Brother, I want to ask for a favor. As you know, my father-in-law has been very busy escorting goods recently. I’d like to help out, so I’ll not involve myself in the hall’s affairs anymore. From now on, everything is up to Big Brother’s decision.”

Feng Xuan looked at Zhou Chu and realized he was so slick and aware of the times, directly ceding all his power and saying he would go home and stay out of affairs. How could you target someone like that?

With no other choice, Feng Xuan decided to make an example of someone else.

He then surveyed the room and said, “Hmm, I can understand the feelings of everyone here. But the Old Hall Master has been killed by the traitor Chen Jiu. The White Tiger Hall of today is not what it once was. Without making those concessions, the main hall wouldn’t possibly reconcile with us.”

“So, for the greater good, we ceded Nan Lake, the iron mine, and Yongchang Street. This puts our White Tiger Hall on the same level as the other branches, nothing special, so we can rest easy.”

“Therefore, everyone remember, it’s not like the old days. The Old Hall Master is dead, no one is going to protect us. Keep your mouths shut and lower your stance a bit. There’s benefit in that.”

“Additionally, let me reiterate, the decision to cede Nan Lake, the iron mine, and Yongchang Street has already been made. This is a notification, not a consultation, understand?”

Slap!

Eagle Da slammed his hand on the table and stood up, infuriated, and cursed, “Feng Xuan, what do you mean? You’re not yet the Hall Master of White Tiger Hall. By what right do you notify us? What authority do you have to speak to us like this!”

“Oh, Eagle Da, you have an opinion about what I said?”

Eagle Da retorted, “So what, can’t I?”

“Sure you can. Since that’s the case, let’s settle it with martial arts on Jianghu terms.”
