Chapter 922: Chapter 916: This Heroine Must Intervene

As Wei Qu made his move, he sent Wang Hai flying back quite a distance. His formidable strength left many in the martial arts hall restaurant with expressions of awe and reverence.

This West Lake area was originally territory controlled by the Haiqing Gang.

However,

Compared to the headquarters in the Yanshan District, this place had become somewhat peripheral and was relatively lax on a daily basis.

Yet, it was still a juicy piece of meat.

Therefore, almost everyone who came to the dinner tonight was a business tycoon from the East Sea, ready to invest in West Lake.

Although their strength was far less than that of Xiang Wenshan from the East Continent or the top forces like the Dongqi Group, they were still figures of some standing, all aiming for money and profit.

They were a bit frustrated seeing the Dongqi Association causing trouble before.

But they were naturally delighted to see Wei Qu taking the upper hand!

Yet in a flash, Wei Qu was struck flying, eliciting a chorus of exclamations as everyone scrambled back.

Wei Qu got up in a disarray, filled with shock and fury, surveying with a cold gaze and shouted, “Which scoundrel?”

“Scoundrel? A mere Martial Arts Grandmaster, speaking so arrogantly!”

A very awkward voice came from behind Liu Kai.

Following this, a man in a white robe walked out with a sinister look on his face.

Beneath his robe, he wore Han Country attire, brimming with regional traits!

He was from the Han Country!

His Huaxia speech was very awkward and easy to discern!

“A Han Country’s Mage Cultivator!”

Wei Qu’s face changed dramatically, looking at the man appearing, showing a look of horror.

The man’s presence was utterly inscrutable to Wei Qu, with an aura vast and unfathomable.

At least.

In his eyes as a Martial Arts Grandmaster, this man was like a mountain, only to be gazed up at, not surpassed.

“How did a powerful figure from Han Country appear in the East Sea!”

“Could it be the Dongqi Association has already collaborated with Han Country?”

“Hiss, this must be the true ambition of the Dongqi Association, right? They want more than just the East Sea’s underworld!”

“These Han people are already bullying us at our doorstep, they’re too arrogant!”

“What can we do? Our own people are at odds too!”

“Is the Dongqi Association leading the wolf into the house?”

The discussion in the gathering restaurant unfolded.

Some were shocked and angry.

Some were indignant.

And some were resigned!

“This Dongqi Association is too vile, collaborating with Han Country people to bully their own!”

Jin Yuting, seated across from Lin Tian, was very angry, her charming face brimming with fury, clenching her fists, eager to rush over and help.

However, she hadn’t lost her cool; even a Martial Arts Grandmaster wasn’t a match for this Han Country man, who might destroy her with just a finger.

Only Lin Tian remained calm about the conflict between both sides, merely surprised at the appearance of the Han Country mage.

“Could this person be from the Han Country’s Seven Star Association?”

Lin Tian cast a glance at the man in the white robe, speculating in his mind.

And Lin Tian also saw the man’s general cultivation as an Advanced Mage, roughly equivalent to the Qi Refining Ninth Level peak.

But his power was likely close to the Early-stage Foundation Establishment!

Otherwise, it would be difficult to so effortlessly unleash powerful energy from a distance, rendering Wei Qu powerless.

“Liu Kai, is your Dongqi Association seeking death? If those above find out you’re collaborating with Han Country men, your Dongqi Association is doomed to self-destruct!”

Du Miaaoshu coldly scolded Liu Kai, then looked at the Han Country man, coldly saying, “Friend, as a strong figure from Han Country entering Huaxia’s realm, aren’t you afraid of being captured and killed by seniors above here?”

“Little one, how dare you speak to me like this!”

The Han Country man’s sinister gaze swept over, staring at Du Miaaoshu, “I’m Park Wentai, the third society steward of the Seven Star Association! Ordinarily, anyone daring to speak to me like this would have been destroyed with a flick! But this time, our Seven Star Association comes with sincerity, hoping both you Haiqing Gang and Dongqi Association can cooperate harmoniously instead of fighting each other! If you’re unwilling to cede West Lake, how about considering another arrangement?”

Seven Star Association!

Upon hearing Park Wentai’s words, Du Miaaoshu couldn’t help but gasp.

The Seven Star Association, one of Han Country’s most powerful underworld forces, gathers countless strong individuals, a multinational Martial World conglomerate!

Because Han Country is small, unlike Huaxia’s crisscrossed underworld, Han Country’s underworld was almost unified by the Seven Star Association through its strong and iron-fisted means and gradually expanded.

These years, it had already infiltrated Huaxia.

Unexpectedly, it’s becoming blatant now.

“Hehe, Elder Pu is right, another way! That is… your Haiqing Gang, willingly follow us, or willingly cooperate with us, the benefits you receive would be far more than your current ones!”

Liu Kai smirked sinisterly, saying, “Du Miaaoshu, as for the ‘above’ you mentioned, it should be referring to the River God Sect, right? Simply put, that’s the Outer Immortal Mountain sect, you should’ve heard a bit of information! Alas, now I’m a disciple of the River God Sect, in a few days after the Martial Arts Conference ends, I’ll head to River God Island! Do you think the Seven Star Association’s matter is unknown to them? This was even approved by my master!”

“How is this possible!”

Du Miaaoshu’s face changed greatly, exclaiming.

Wei Qu and the others’ faces turned extremely unsightly.

Even Yang Ji fell silent; this kind of existence was beyond his involvement.

Recalling his time in Bin City, he once witnessed the means of an Immortal Mountain master, an encounter he’d never forget in his lifetime.

Then he understood that an Immortal Mountain sect truly existed!

As one of the martial arts hall’s stakeholders, Chu Anling also stood aside, expression grim, silent.

“Just now, their meaning was… Liu Kai has become a disciple under an Immortal?”

“Rubbish, there’s no such thing as an Immortal!”

“Who knows! Perhaps not Immortals, but certainly beings stronger than Martial Arts Grandmasters!”

Many people secretly began discussing, looking at Liu Kai with even more awe.

“Now, are you yielding or resisting?”

Liu Kai looked at Du Miaaoshu with a half-smile, mockingly saying, “Of course, you must convince your father when you go back, otherwise, in a few days, we can only visit you personally!”

Du Miaaoshu clenched his fists, his face was grim, not knowing what to do.

Everyone else, including Wei Qu, fell silent.

“Fine… we’ll cede West Lake to you!”

Du Miaaoshu gritted his teeth, ultimately yielding, “As for our Haiqing Gang’s cooperation with you, I’ll discuss it with my dad!”

This territory is inevitably going to change hands?

Will we have to cooperate with Han Country people in the future?

People looked at each other in confusion at the gathering restaurant.

“No way! This is Little Nai’er’s uncle’s investment. Little Nai’er has been proud of this martial arts hall opening for so long!”

At this moment, Jin Yuting abruptly stood up, indignantly saying, “This matter, I, who fancy myself a heroine, must manage, at worst, escalate it upward, let the police handle it! Otherwise, if Little Nai’er comes tomorrow and finds the martial arts hall gone, think how upset she’d be!”

Saying this, not waiting for Lin Tian to react, the girl already angrily ran over.
