Chapter 636: Don’t You Want to Be the Chief?

In the midst of rushing, Shao Huo turned his head, only to discover that Lin Zifeng had already appeared behind them at some point.

Without realizing it, Shao Huo’s throat began to feel dry, as if he was a child who had done something wrong.

"Brother Lin, how did you get here?" Seeing the reactions of everyone around, Shao Huo couldn’t help but ask.

"Let them go," Lin Zifeng said lightly after a brief glance.

Seeing the people in the cave below, young and old, huddled together and looking up at him with anxious expressions, he didn’t want Shao Huo to implicate the innocent family of the Bai Martial Arts Club owner because of this incident.

"Brother Lin!" Shao Huo opened his mouth but then nodded in agreement with Lin Zifeng’s method.

"You, take them back the same way you brought them here," Shao Huo gestured with a wave of his hand, signaling the man who had just been boasting before him to take them away.

"But...!" A look of displeasure immediately crossed the small thief’s face as he scanned Lin Zifeng several times. He didn’t recognize Lin Zifeng and didn’t understand why Shao Huo would speak so respectfully to this man.

"Did you not understand what I said?"

Shao Huo roared with his voice low.

"Brother Shao, don’t be angry, I know what to do now," the frightened thief shrank his neck and hastily led a group of people to lift and carry away all the family members of the Bai Martial Arts Club owner.

"You cannot do this. Even if you have a grudge against my son, the family should not bear the consequences. Don’t you understand the rules of the Martial Arts World?"

One of the middle-aged, chubby men who had been caught shouted as he glared.

He was the biological father of the Bai Martial Arts Club owner and once a somewhat well-known businessman in Zhonghai City. Unfortunately, he led an unremarkable life devoted to the business world. Later, when his son made a name in the Martial Arts World, this father indeed contributed a lot of money—Bai Martial Arts Club’s Brother K could have his status today partly thanks to his father’s help.

"Return them the way you brought them."

"Brother Lin, I’m sorry I didn’t discuss this with you,"

Through the time spent together, Shao Huo had come to understand Lin Zifeng’s temperament. He also knew that Lin Zifeng generally detested those who achieved their goals through despicable means.

Now that he himself had done exactly this, he couldn’t help feeling somewhat guilty for not living up to the mentorship that Lin Zifeng had provided. His current realm was largely due to Lin Zifeng’s help.

If it hadn’t been for Lin Zifeng, he would still be enduring other people’s bullying to this day.

Also, the fact that he could rise to his position so effortlessly was all thanks to Lin Zifeng’s instructions to the Martial Arts Society members to help him in secret. Even though Lin Zifeng never told him, Shao Huo was well aware of that.

He was not a fool, nor was he someone without intelligence.

"I know this matter doesn’t concern you much, but I hope you never consider such a thought in the future. ’The calamities of the Martial Arts World should not involve the family’; I hope you understand this. I know you have a long road ahead, and you will certainly go farther in the future," Lin Zifeng said with a smile, patting Shao Huo’s thin shoulders without blaming him.

However, Shao Huo’s heart felt warm, his eyes almost brimming with tears.

He pursed his lips and turned his head to the side, struggling to contain the tears welling up at the edge of his eyes and not let them fall.

The goodness of Lin Zifeng towards him was beyond doubt.

After the petty thieves had led away the family of the owner of the Bai Martial Arts School, Lin Zifeng didn’t linger for long. After all, the Bai Martial Arts School was just a sharpening stone for Shao Huo. How far this scoundrel could go and how high he could climb depended on his own effort.

It wasn’t until Lin Zifeng had left that the lackey who took away Brother K’s family quickly came back alone.

He took out a cigarette and offered it to Shao Huo with a flattering smile, "Brother Shao, everything is arranged."

"Are all the people sent away safely?" Shao Ling looked at him coldly.

The guy in front of him had a sycophantic expression, and Shao Huo hated him for his excessive bootlicking.

"No."

"No?" Shao Huo suddenly turned around, glaring at him furiously, and said, "Didn’t I tell you to send them back safely? Are you treating my words as a fart?"

"No, no, no! Brother Shao, please don’t be angry. Things aren’t as you think. I did this for your own good."

The thief hurriedly explained.

"For my good?" Shao Huo chuckled coldly, narrowing his eyes, his thin face filled with a strange smile, "How exactly is it for my good? Let’s hear it."

"Hehe, Brother Shao, was that man just now your boss?"

Seeing some anticipation in Shao Huo’s voice, the thief quickly bent down and approached with a flattering question.

Squinting those shiny eyes, a fierce expression flashed by inadvertently.

"Yes," Shao Huo replied.

"Brother Shao, I’m not sure if I should say some things or not?" The thief looked around, shrinking his neck and bringing his mouth close to Shao Huo.

"What is it?" Shao Huo asked mechanically.

"Our Youth Association was only established recently. During this time, it’s all been you, Brother Shao, bustling about. As for that nameless boss... Hehe, think about it, Brother Shao. You’re the founder of the Youth Association.

Although now we can’t compare to those real Martial Arts societies, I know it won’t be long before our Youth Association will shine in Zhonghai City. Don’t you want to be the leader of the Youth Association, Brother Shao?"

"You came back just to tell me this?" Shao Huo said expressionlessly, but he was sneering inside. If Brother Lin took a liking to the Youth Association, with a simple flick of his finger, the Youth Association would not be in its current state.

"No! Brother Shao, please don’t misunderstand me. I, Zhang Zhicheng, am loyal to you. With just one word from you, I’d climb the knife mountain and dive into the frying pan for you. It’s just that I think, with your ability, Brother Shao, you shouldn’t be subordinate to others, right? You should understand what I’m saying."

"You came back just to tell me this? Where have you placed Brother K’s family now? Why didn’t you send them back?"

"Brother Shao, don’t blame me for being nosy, but we just lost to the Bai Martial Arts School, and the brothers have already been deeply struck. Most of the members of the Youth Association are young. If they can’t find a sense of achievement at this time, I’m afraid they’ll start to waver."

"So you’re using Brother K’s family to threaten him? And then you’re using unscrupulous methods to deal with him?" Shao Dui grinned sinisterly, his sharp chin hooking up a vicious smile. He had thought of this method long ago; he was just afraid of angering Lin Zifeng.

After all, in the Martial Arts World, calamities shouldn’t extend to one’s family.

"Brother Shao, with the current strength of our Youth Association, this is the only method we can use. You know, last time our Youth Association suffered a terrible defeat. Quite a few brothers have already lost faith. If this continues, I’m afraid they’ll start to have doubts."
