Chapter 555: Chapter 519: Who Can Kill Wu Li

"What?!"

When Wu’s words fell, everyone was shocked.

The Hall Master Zhang who had spoken before looked at Wu, "Master Wu, what do you mean by that?"

Wu replied, "It means that if you trust me, I can take on this matter on behalf of all of you."

"This..."

The crowd exchanged glances. Upon reflection, the solution Wu proposed was feasible. Compared to targeting many Chinese societies at once, aiming only at Wu was obviously much more convenient and cost-effective. If these Chinese societies really proposed such terms to ’Le Yuan’, there was no reason for ’Le Yuan’ to refuse.

But the key issue was, what if Wu really got eliminated?

In this line of work, the most important things were credibility and face. Once these societies publicly announced this matter, they had to adhere to the agreement afterward. So, if Wu got taken care of by ’Le Yuan’, they would have no choice but to cooperate with ’Le Yuan’.

The meeting room fell silent for a moment as no one spoke.

Wu knew what their concerns were, so he didn’t speak further to persuade them. His capabilities and past achievements were evident for all to see. Now, it was up to the big shots present to decide.

"My Zhiyuan Hall is willing to cooperate with Master Wu."

After a moment of silence, Grandmaster Liu spoke up.

He had been aware of Wu’s plan beforehand and had already discussed it with the other top members of his hall, reaching an agreement.

"Zhiqing Hall is willing to cooperate with Master Wu!"

After Grandmaster Liu spoke, Lin Yun from Zhiqing Hall also voiced his agreement.

Both Zhiyuan Hall and Zhiqing Hall had a very close relationship with Wu and owed him numerous favors. Their willingness to support Wu was not surprising, but the other hall leaders were not quick to express their position.

"Master Wu, how confident are you in this matter?" Hall Master Zhang asked, using an honorific to address Wu.

Wu looked at him, "Actually, I’m not sure either."

"Hmm?" The other party was surprised.

Wu continued, "Because I would really like to know, apart from deploying troops to encircle and suppress, what other means does Le Yuan have to kill me?"

"..."

With his background of surviving an assassination attempt, Wu indeed had the grounds to say such things.

"Master Wu, I need to go back and discuss with the others in my hall before I can give you an answer," another person spoke.

Wu nodded, "Of course, I hope you all can make a decision quickly, as delaying further only means more losses."

Soon, the hall leaders present began to leave, leaving only Wu, Grandmaster Liu, Lin Yun, and Li San in the meeting room.

"Grandmaster Liu, do you think these people will agree?" Lin Yun asked.

Grandmaster Liu scoffed, "What if they don’t agree? How long do you think they can last?"

Lin Yun nodded. The current situation was such that if these people didn’t agree with Wu’s proposal, they would either have to desperately fight against ’Le Yuan’ and be forced to disband or choose to cooperate with ’Le Yuan’. Now, Wu stepping forward and offering another possibility was actually a good thing for them; they just needed to give verbal agreement, which was beneficial for them.

Li San looked worriedly at Wu, "Are you really confident you can handle it? Once so many societies speak out at the same time, all the pressure will fall on you, and Le Yuan will spare no expense to deal with you!"

Wu smiled, "Actually, I wasn’t just talking."

Li San, "What?"

Wu replied, "I really do want to know, apart from deploying troops to surround and suppress, what other methods does Le Yuan have to kill me?"

Li San was speechless, recalling what Grandmaster Liu had meaningfully said when he first learned that Wu was planning to unite with other Chinese societies to establish Hua Jian Security:

He wants to be the World’s No. 1!

...

On November 15, 2022, fifteen halls of the American Hongmen jointly issued a statement:

From today onwards, as long as ’Le Yuan’ can eliminate Wu, then the American Hongmen is willing to cooperate unconditionally with ’Le Yuan’!

Upon the announcement, Overseas Chinese societies were shocked! The Underworld was shocked!

These fifteen halls almost represented all the forces of the American Hongmen. By jointly issuing such a statement, they directly pushed Wu into the spotlight.

This declaration was essentially telling everyone: After deliberation, we think Wu is the toughest and can represent us, and we are willing to trust him, so if you, Le Yuan, have the capability to take down Wu, then we will surrender unconditionally!

But this declaration was also tactically outmaneuvering ’Le Yuan’, because since they said so, what reason would you have to continue targeting these societies instead of dealing with Wu? With such a large force, would you really be afraid of just one Wu?

Moreover, considering the cost-effectiveness, directly dealing with Wu was the best solution, and the forces behind ’Le Yuan’ could figure this out easily using basic logic.

...

South Africa, East Cape.

At the training base of Hua Jian Security, Wu was practicing his boxing.

His punches and kicks were slow and graceful, pleasing to the eye.

However, the circulation of qi and blood inside his body was not as peaceful as it appeared on the surface, but rather tumultuous.

Wu was practicing the Eight Golden Locks Body Cultivation Method. He had recently used several A-grade Virtual Battle Cards to advance this cultivation method further and was now repeating the process in reality.

Half an hour later, Wu slowly stopped his movements and forcefully exhaled a breath, the gust dispersing some of the dirt on the ground.

Spirit (Spiritual Movement): 190

Power (Dragon and Tiger): 188

Body (Gang Body): 186

These were Wu’s current stats. His Spirit, Power, and Body values were already very close to the peak of Grandmasterhood, especially when Wu used Heavenly Tilt, he felt that his state at that moment might have surpassed the realm of a Grandmaster, though it was not sustainable.

It was because of such capabilities that Wu had the confidence to let the American Hongmen make that statement.

"Wu."

A voice came, and Wu turned to see it was Qian Kun.

"What’s up?" Wu asked.

"The organization has agreed to fully activate the Overseas Intelligence Team," Qian Kun stated directly.

Wu nodded, "Good."

Having the support of the organization, particularly in intelligence, was another source of Wu’s confidence. This backing allowed his survivability to greatly increase!

After all, Wu was not actually an Immortal. If he were really surrounded by a large troop, he would surely die. With ’Le Yuan’s capabilities, mobilizing a large-scale combat force was not difficult. The challenge lay in mobilizing without detection.

With the organization’s intelligence capabilities, as soon as there was the slightest disturbance, Wu would get the information and be able to leave ahead of time. Thus, for ’Le Yuan’ to kill Wu, they could only rely on a small scale elite team, and Wu was not the least bit afraid:

One-on-one, whoever came would die!

One-against-many, even if not victorious, if he decided to leave, who could stop him?
