Chapter 151: Chapter 151: Jiangnan Prefecture, My Word Is Law!_1

Lord Long had been a calculating force in the provincial city for decades and never miscalculated.

Yet this time, he actually admitted he had miscalculated.

Ghost Blade was somewhat surprised, but the strength of that person also shocked him.

"That guy’s prowess isn’t just terrifying in his own right,

but also because he seems to be a very good instructor."

Ghost Blade said, "I have the information on those hundred and something people.

Two months ago, some of them were such losers that they couldn’t even beat their wives.

They were cowards, bullied to the point of being unable to raise their heads.

They were truly rubbish.

But in just two months, some having undergone only one month of intensive training,

they actually started to show promise.

Fighting ten or a hundred opponents single-handedly wasn’t beyond them.

Of course, in your eyes, Lord Long, that’s still nothing—they’re still a bunch of rubbish, but their future is terrifying."

Although it made Ghost Blade uncomfortable, he couldn’t deny that the growth of Tiangang and Earth Fiend would astonish countless people.

As long as they survived.

"Is the intelligence from Jianghu Teahouse reliable?"

Lord Long suddenly asked.

"The intelligence from Jianghu Teahouse has always been spot-on!"

Ghost Blade answered.

He knew why Lord Long asked because things had gone beyond expectations.

"Do you still suspect that there’s a shadow from the Capital City behind him?"

Ghost Blade asked.

Lord Long nodded and said, "We must be wary.

You know, we seem unmatched in Jiangnan Prefecture, but outside of it, we’re really nothing special.

Even facing that person in the Capital City, I’m just a money-gathering dog.

If this kid really has ties with the Capital City Families, we must be careful.

They are likely targeting not only me but also the person behind me.

The struggles in the Capital City, affecting the whole of Dragon Country, are far more intense than in our Jiangnan Prefecture.

The Family Clan behind me, although currently very powerful, arguably the first in the Capital City,

is also being watched by many more, each one eager to pull us down."

"If you’re truly worried, Lord Long, why not just nip it in the bud and get rid of the fellow?"

Ghost Blade said through gritted teeth.

"Are you confident?"

Lord Long asked.

Ghost Blade hesitated a moment and replied, "Fifty percent."

"Forget it at fifty percent. I’ve already lost a Tyrant Fist, I can’t afford to lose you too.

Wait until those two return, and you three team up,"

Lord Long pondered before saying.

Ghost Blade wanted to say more, but Lord Long stopped him, "I know you’re not convinced.

But at this time, we must remain calm. One wrong step leads to many."

"Lord Long!"

At that moment, White Wolf arrived.

"Sit down. How did the investigation you were in charge of go?"

Lord Long looked at White Wolf and asked.

"Lord Long, this Xiao Chen is indeed the big BOSS behind Linhai.

Zhang Qi is just a puppet he pushed to the forefront.

He’s established a Tianxing Company, with Zhang Qi as the manager and that Guan Hu as the deputy manager."

White Wolf took a sip of tea and said, "There’s also a troubling situation; this Xiao Chen seems to detest the underworld deeply.

There is no underworld in Linhai now at all.

Tianxing Company is simply charged with safeguarding Linhai and doesn’t engage in underground operations.

So, if they come to the provincial city, then the underground forces here will surely be wiped out too.

This man, he simply can’t be left alone."

"Guarding Linhai?"

Lord Long frowned and asked, "What exactly have they done?"

White Wolf hurriedly answered, "A lot. Any company in Linhai that dares to operate unrighteously, harming the public, they will intervene;

if external forces enter Linhai to cause trouble, they will take action;

and moreover, it seems that Tianxing Company has cooperation with the Linhai officials.

After those chaps in the provincial city fell into misfortune this time, they lost a lot of money."

This Tianxing Company had allocated a portion of its funds for rewarding employees and constructing residential communities.

The remaining funds were invested in public utilities and charitable causes under the name of Tianxing Company.

They built Tianxing Street, which is currently the most modernized and highest-quality street in Linhai.

They also constructed a Tianxing Kindergarten, a very large one, which they claim is specifically to address the problems of children who have difficulties attending school.

In their plans, there’s also the construction of elementary and middle schools.

As for the money earned, Xiao Chen didn’t keep a single cent for himself."

"Bullshit, why don’t I believe that?"

Ghost Blade scoffed, "Every man for himself, heaven’s wrath and earth’s destruction notwithstanding, let alone those from the underworld.

Even if Linhai’s development is excellent, it has nothing to do with him.

What’s he really after?

Is it just for a good reputation?

But the key is that he himself has not sought fame; it’s all been under the name of Tianxing Company.

People only know about Zhang Qi and Guan Hu, Tiangang and Dishasha, but have no idea about Xiao Chen.

What exactly is he plotting?"

"I don’t believe it either, but all this is true."

White Wolf sighed, "Honestly, I’m starting to admire the kid.

It’s really hard not to give him a thumbs-up for living life to such a standard.

Why didn’t I encounter such a good person back in the day?

Alas, if I had met a good person like that when I was young, I wouldn’t have dropped out of school halfway and got mixed up in all this."

"This person must be related to Capital City somehow," said Lord Long suddenly.

"How did you figure that out?" White Wolf couldn’t help but ask.

"Haven’t you noticed? There always seems to be the shadow of the official authorities behind Tianxing Company.

That Leader Lei from Linhai has stood on the stage for Xinmeng Group multiple times.

I don’t believe there’s no connection."

Lord Long’s eyes emitted a sharp light as he said, "This Xiao Chen is no simple character; for now, let’s not provoke him.

We might really end up getting in deep trouble.

When immortals fight, the little devils suffer.

We definitely should not lightly become entangled in the complex interests of Capital City’s Family Clans.

Like this, call back Xue Ying immediately and send him to Linhai.

Remember, don’t be as impulsive as Tyrant Fist; you can make contact with this Xiao Chen.

Test the waters, see if there’s potential for cooperation.

The Long Family can’t lie in the gutter forever; we too long to live in the sunlight.

This person might just be the key!"

"Understood!"

Ghost Blade turned and left.

Lord Long looked towards White Wolf and said, "You’ll represent me and meet with those from the Lin Family and Bai Family.

Gather everyone, tell them what I said.

In this period, no one is allowed to vie for territory.

Assure them peace of mind.

The provincial city can’t be thrown into chaos."

"You can rest assured, Lord Long, I understand."

White Wolf also left.

Lord Long sat there alone, watching the Huangmei opera on stage.

The story was about a young prince traveling south who offended a local magnate.

As a result, he was killed.

"Heh, what’s a prince anyway, or even imperial relatives and nobles!" Lord Long sneered, "Jiangnan Prefecture is still under my command.

Kid, no matter what your identity is, I hope you won’t become an enemy of the Long Family.

Otherwise, I’d have no choice but to destroy you!"

...

Tianbin Hotel.

Zhang Qi came back, and he brought Xiao Chen’s parents to Linhai.

Xiao Chen specially arranged a table at Tianbin Hotel, and Old Master Jiang, Liu Xin, and Jiang Meng all were present.

"The girl is really pretty, Xiao Chen, you kid, how did you manage to charm such a good girl into your hands?"

Mother Xiao said with a smile.
