Chapter 236 - 236 227 224 No One Believed to Be Dead Until Seen Dead

236: Chapter 227 Chapter 224: No One Believed to Be Dead Until Seen Dead 236: Chapter 227 Chapter 224: No One Believed to Be Dead Until Seen Dead On the top floor of the Great Development Group building, the headquarters of the Flame Dragon Gang.

Yan Bu’er’s underlings had contacted the leader of this operation several times, but discovered that the person had vanished without a trace.

This left Yan Bu’er deeply troubled.

Sitting in his office, a naked woman was leaning over him, using her full breasts to give Yan Bu’er a massage.

Yan Bu’er, with his eyes closed, savored the moment.

He asked faintly, “Zhang Lang, how are things?”

“Boss Yan, we still can’t get in touch with Liu Duanwu and the others!” Zhang Lang anxiously looked at Yan Bu’er.

“Then go find them, even if it means digging three feet into the ground to find those people for me!” Yan Bu’er suddenly erupted with anger, shouting, “I want to see them alive, or their corpses if they are dead.”

“Yes, yes, Gang Leader, please calm down!” Zhang Lang quickly nodded in agreement.

He immediately dispatched more than ten little brothers to search along the road, and before long, some of the little brothers sent back news.

Li Duanwu and the others had an accident on their way to the Heavenly Reversal Gang.

Their vehicle exploded, and the exact cause was still under vigorous investigation by the police and traffic police departments.

Receiving this news, Zhang Lang felt a chill run through him.

If Boss Yan found out about this, he was likely to lose more than just a layer of skin.

Still, it was something that could not be concealed.

With no other choice, Zhang Lang had to tell Yan Bu’er the whole truth.

“What did you say?” Yan Bu’er was stunned and said, “Liu Duanwu and the others had an accident on their way there, the vehicle burned up, and there was an explosion?

And the bodies?”

“The forensic identification confirmed it was Liu Duanwu and the others!” Zhang Lang hurriedly responded.

“What did the police say?” Yan Bu’er asked immediately.

“The police say the fire may have been caused by the gasoline carried in the car!” Zhang Lang said with his head bowed low.

After hearing this, Yan Bu’er remained silent for a long time.

Whom could he blame?

If anyone, it would only be his own foolish underlings who lit the fire that killed themselves.

After a while, Yan Bu’er waved his hand and said, “You, go down and take your punishment.

Also, for those dead guys, send 100,000 to each of their families.”

“Gang Leader, according to the rules, isn’t the compensation 300,000 for each person who dies for the gang?” Zhang Lang was a righteous person; although he had done a lot of dirty work under Yan Bu’er, he still wouldn’t be negligent in fighting for the interests of his brothers, even if he knew Yan Bu’er would be enraged, he had to speak up.

“How dare you!” Yan Bu’er looked at Zhang Lang coldly and angrily said, “Did those guys die for the gang?

They brought it upon themselves.

It has nothing to do with the gang!”

“Gang Leader, even though the accident was unexpected, they indeed were working for the Flame Dragon Gang!” Zhang Lang gritted his teeth.

“Zhang Lang, you’re becoming more and more insolent!” Yan Bu’er glared at Zhang Lang and said, “If you don’t want to work here anymore, pack up and get lost, I don’t welcome you here!”

A chill flashed through Zhang Lang’s eyes as he immediately turned around and left.

Yan Bu’er had indeed helped Zhang Lang a lot in the past, but Yan Bu’er’s actions over the years had increasingly disappointed Zhang Lang.

He was slowly calculating how much he had repaid Yan Bu’er.

Now, it appeared that his debt to Yan Bu’er had long been settled.

It was time to leave; Zhang Lang went downstairs, packed up at his place, and then turned to leave.

This mishap made Yan Bu’er temporarily abandon the assault on the Heavenly Reversal Gang and instead focus all his efforts on public relations with the City Government.

Currently, Jiang Zhonggen still did not trust him enough, entirely because of his last cooperation with Liu Jiangqiu.

In hindsight, he indeed had been somewhat rash.

As for the fire, the police had already identified the responsibility as being on the car’s occupants.

It was because the driver had placed gasoline inside the vehicle, which led to the fire.

The reason no one escaped after the fire began, according to the police, was that the car was overloaded, causing a short circuit in the electrical wires.

As a result, the unlock button malfunctioned, trapping the occupants inside and eventually burning them to death.

After returning to the casino, Ye Chen and the others paid close attention to the incident.

They were waiting to see if the Flame Dragon Gang would uncover any hidden details.

However, from the news coming back from both the Flame Dragon Gang and the police, it seemed that nothing unusual had arisen—the police had not investigated the cause of the accident, and Yan Bu’er believed the police investigation.

Yet the biggest suspicion remained unconsidered by anyone.

“Heh, those guys died for nothing!” Feng Zhixiao grinned with a smirk.

“That’s true!” Jiang Wei smiled faintly and said, “The police these days never do as solid a job as before.

To complete a task or to avoid trouble, they just find some excuse and brush the matter aside.”

“Let’s not discuss this in such detail,” Ye Chen grinned.

“The police doing this saved us quite a bit of trouble!”

As everyone was talking, Xiao Er rushed in from outside, panting and pale-faced.

He looked at Ye Chen and Feng Zhixiao and others, saying, “It’s bad, at the door there’s a tall guy holding a human head claiming he wants to see Brother Chen!”

“A tall guy?

A human head?” Ye Chen was stunned.

When he pieced these details together, he realized he didn’t recognize such a person.

“No matter what, Brother Chen, we should go out and see,” Feng Zhixiao urged from the side.

Then, the group immediately ran towards the outside.

The entrance of the casino had already gathered quite a crowd.

Some were covering their mouths, standing at the entrance, not daring to get close to that fellow.

At the casino entrance, a tall man about 1.9 meters stood not far away, holding a bloody head.

Shockingly, the head’s eyes were still open.

The scene frightened the women present into tears.

Even some of the less courageous men couldn’t help but hide, not daring to look.

Ye Chen came out of the casino with Feng Zhixiao and Da Hei parting the crowd in front.

Most were little brothers from the Juxing Gang, others were shop owners from across the street, and a few were onlookers.

As Ye Chen walked out, he immediately recognized the guy as Zhang Lang from the Flame Dragon Gang.

“Kid, what are you doing looking for Brother Chen?” Feng Zhixiao stepped forward, staring at the dead head in Zhang Lang’s hand for a long time before he recognized it as another formidable warrior under Yan Bu’er’s command, named Wu Hua.

He was shocked by the realization that this person had been killed so suddenly.

Zhang Lang glanced at Feng Zhixiao and dismissively replied, “I just want to talk to Ye Chen!”

“Damn, kid, you’re rather bold.

Do you think you can just see Brother Chen whenever you want?” Feng Zhixiao was about to curse when Ye Chen immediately pulled him back, stepped forward, and asked, “I am Ye Chen.

If I’m not mistaken, you must be someone under Yan Bu’er’s command, right?”

“Yes!” As Zhang Lang saw that the person before him was Ye Chen, he handed over the head, stating, “I’ve already left the Flame Dragon Gang and plan to turn to the light and join the Heavenly Reversal Gang.

This is my token of loyalty!”

Ye Chen took a sharp breath.

Indeed, it was a token of loyalty.

Looking at the bloody head in Zhang Lang’s hand, he curiously asked, “What made you betray Yan Bu’er?”

“It’s not about betrayal, he drove me out of the Flame Dragon Gang!” Zhang Lang glanced at Ye Chen, then leaned in and whispered, “I know the fire today was your doing, but I didn’t tell Yan Bu’er, planning to let him remain in the dark forever!”

Ye Chen frowned.

Zhang Lang was a cunning fox, which was not incorrect.

He knew how to make proper use of the resources at his disposal.

Not wanting to stay with the Flame Dragon Gang, he understood that without the gang, only death awaited him since he knew too much about their affairs.

Yet, if he stayed, it was just a matter of time before Yan Bu’er wore him out.

So to leave the Flame Dragon Gang and keep his life, he probably had no other choice but to find a gang capable of rivaling the Flame Dragon Gang.

In Jianghuai City, the Flame Dragon Gang claimed to be the top gang.

With Zhang Dadan gone and Mr.

Crown Prince on the run, an Anti-Chen Gang emerged, obviously a force stirred up by Zhang Dadan’s people.

Of course, although there were countless gangs in Jianghuai City, very few were significant.

After thinking it through, the Heavenly Reversal Gang, soaring in fame recently, came to mind for Zhang Lang.

In the view of those in Jianghuai City’s underworld, the Heavenly Reversal Gang was at most an emerging, perhaps lucky gang.

However, Zhang Lang saw Ye Chen’s strategy and the unity of the Heavenly Reversal Gang.

He had heard about Zhang Dadan’s downfall, which was closely related to Ye Chen’s personal intelligence, and Mr.

Crown Prince’s flight, demonstrating the solidarity of the Heavenly Reversal Gang.

Even when Yan Bu’er whistled in Jianghuai City, calling for troops to deal with the Heavenly Reversal Gang, it ended in failure.

All of this gave Zhang Lang a glimmer of hope.

Without hesitation, he killed Wu Hua, Yan Bu’er’s confidant.

“Very good,” Ye Chen said with a cold smile, “Heavenly Reversal Gang welcomes you!”

“Thank you, Brother Chen!” Zhang Lang nodded excitedly.

Feng Zhixiao was momentarily stunned but didn’t voice any opinion.

Applause immediately filled the air around them, as people had witnessed the skills of Zhang Lang.

If the Heavenly Reversal Gang could secure Zhang Lang’s allegiance, their strength would surely increase another level.

“Brother Chen, aren’t you worried he might be an insider?” Feng Zhixiao seized the opportunity to get close to Ye Chen.

“If Zhang Lang is Yan Bu’er’s inside man, then the price to pay is a bit too high!” Ye Chen said with a cold smile, “I believe, in Yan Bu’er’s eyes, neither you nor I are as important as Wu Hua, understand?

Maybe Zhang Lang isn’t truly joining us, but the fact that he has left the Flame Dragon Gang is undeniable.

Who knows, right now Yan Bu’er might be furious, ranting about seeking trouble with Zhang Lang!”

Feng Zhixiao paused, and after some thought, he felt Ye Chen indeed had a point.
