Chapter 23

After bidding farewell to Lin Wanru, Jiang Bai and the others immediately rushed to a dilapidated factory in the outskirts.

Along the way, Jiang Bai did not stop to rest. He realized that he was in a crisis. Zhang Changgeng was obviously not someone to be trifled with. This could be seen from Xu Jie's performance.

Guo Shu Grand Masters were extremely fierce and could be called humanoid machines. They had already reached the limits of the human body. But in the end, they were still humans, and humans had their limits. Back then, didn't the Eight Trigrams Grand Master Cheng Tinghua die under a gun?

Although Jiang Bai was powerful, Zhang Changgeng was not someone to be trifled with. How could a person who could dominate Tiandu be simple?

This was especially true for a tyrant like Zhang Changgeng.

Frankly speaking, other than martial arts, no matter how one looked at it, Jiang Bai would not be able to withstand a single blow from Zhang Changgeng. Unless Jiang Bai was prepared to fight to the death and rush out to kill him, he could only resolve this matter as soon as possible. This was also the reason why Jiang Bai captured Zhang Tianang.

From another perspective, although Zhang Tianang was insolent and shameless, he had the capital to do so.

"I have to think of a way."

Guo Shu Grand Masters were powerful, but they were not invincible. One against a hundred was not a problem, but what about two hundred? Three hundred?

Two to three hundred people standing there for Jiang Bai to fight. Even if Jiang Bai fought with them, he would be exhausted to death. Not to mention, the other party had guns!

Along the way, Jiang Bai had been thinking about this problem. In the end, he could not find a suitable solution. He realized that there was no other way but to fight.

"Last time, I still had over seven hundred Reputation points unused. In this half a month, I have accumulated over a thousand Reputation points. I can use the Basic Lottery twice. I originally wanted to keep it, but now it seems that I can't."

The only thing Jiang Bai could rely on now was the System. Although the Basic Lottery was a scam, it was still more reliable than using Reputation points to buy it. The things that could be bought with two thousand Reputation points were of limited help to Jiang Bai. He could only hope for luck.

"Turn!"

At his command, the slot machine that had just appeared in front of him began to spin wildly…

After a few seconds, it stopped on a black square. Jiang Bai's face instantly fell. A black square meant that there was no reward. This was simply a case of when it rains, it pours!

"As the old saying goes, blessings never come in pairs and misfortunes never come singly. Looks like I'm really unlucky today."

With a wry smile, Jiang Bai helplessly continued to spin the slot machine.

There was no turning back. Now, he had no choice but to bite the bullet. He chose the next time, but there was still no purple reward that Jiang Bai expected. The best reward was still a blue one.

Swish swish swish…

The slot machine began to spin crazily under Jiang Bai's bloodshot eyes. Then, it gradually began to slow down. Unknowingly, it landed on a blue square and stopped moving.

"Congratulations, young man. You've obtained a War God Card. You can activate the War God Possession skill for 30 seconds. For 30 seconds, you'll be invincible in the world. You'll be invincible, invulnerable, as fast as the wind, as violent as lightning. You'll have the strength to move mountains and rivers. It will automatically dispel after 30 seconds. There are no side effects."

The sound of the system prompt rang in Jiang Bai's mind, causing Jiang Bai's eyes to light up.

The system's products were absolutely exquisite. This introduction simply blinded Jiang Bai's eyes. Especially that sentence, "You'll have the strength to move mountains and rivers. You'll have the strength to move mountains and rivers. You'll have the strength to move mountains and rivers. You'll have the strength to move mountains and rivers. You'll have the strength to move mountains and rivers.

"Call Zhang Changgeng and ask him to come and get people. Tell him not to call the police. I'll wait for him here. He can bring as many people as he wants. If he can settle me today, I'll be at his disposal."

After more than half an hour, Jiang Bai and the others arrived at their destination. As soon as they got out of the car, he said to Xu Jie.

"This…"

Xu Jie's eyes widened as he looked at Jiang Bai in disbelief.

He had thought of many possibilities on the way here, but he didn't think of this one. Calling Zhang Changgeng and asking him to come over? And casually bringing as many people as he wants?

Teacher, this isn't right!

Shouldn't you use Zhang Tianang's life to threaten Zhang Changgeng and trick him into coming here alone? Since you've already started, you'll go all the way and directly end the father and son duo. Then, the birds will fly into the forest, and the fish will enter the sea, drifting away forever?

At the very least, you should take advantage of the fact that you have a hostage and invite someone with prestige to mediate the situation. Then, this matter would be settled with an apology. On the way here, Xu Jie had already thought about it. His teacher would come forward to mediate, and they would just apologize on their side.

Or, the two of them would directly start a fight. One of them would be earth-shattering, and the other would be earth-shattering.

He thought of many possibilities, but he didn't think that Jiang Bai would actually ask him to do this!

This… Wasn't this asking for death?

Even if Xu Jie wasn't afraid of death, even if Xu Jie wasn't afraid … He didn't want to do something like this that would just throw his life away.

"Boss, this…" Xu Jie was a little hesitant.

"Don't worry, I naturally have a way!"

Jiang Bai interrupted Xu Jie's words and said indifferently. Xu Jie, who was originally a little worried, didn't continue to say anything. According to Jiang Bai's instructions, he called Zhang Changgeng through someone nearby and spread the word that Jiang Bai didn't want to provoke the emperor, but he wanted to touch Zhang Changgeng. Now, they were in an abandoned factory in the suburbs, and Zhang Changgeng could call all of his people to fight.

In fact, it wasn't that he didn't want to provoke the emperor. In his heart, Jiang Bai was a good citizen who abided by the law. He didn't think that his personal strength could go against the state's machinery.

He wanted to fight with the other party on the official level, but the problem was that Jiang Bai didn't have that ability now. If he really got a phone call, he could immediately use legal means to make Zhang Changgeng obedient and destroy his family. Why would he need to do it himself?

On the contrary, Zhang Changgeng's network of contacts and connections were very good. He could put a lot of charges on Jiang Bai at any time, which made Jiang Bai have to do this.

Xu Jie was also a bachelor. Since he had decided to fight with Zhang Changgeng, he might as well make a big fuss and turn the world upside down.

Looking for someone to inform Zhang Changgeng was a well-known information broker in Tiandu, and indirectly, it was a loudspeaker.

So when Zhang Changgeng got the news, all the famous people in Tiandu knew about it. The calm lake of Tiandu suddenly exploded like a pot of oil.

Who was Zhang Changgeng?

The tyrant of Tiandu!

In the entire Tiandu, there were less than ten people who dared to wrestle with him. Which one of them wasn't a person who could make Tiandu tremble with a stomp of their feet?

How many years had it been since anyone dared to compete with him? He remembered that a few years ago, a "crown prince" came from the north and wanted to fight with Zhang Changgeng, but he also returned in defeat and made a big joke.

Over the years, it wasn't that there were no underworld heroes who offended him. In the end, which one of them didn't end up with their body dismembered and thrown into the river?

Now, Jiang Bai, who had just emerged and no one knew who he was before, was actually fighting with Zhang Changgeng?

Moreover, he captured Zhang Changgeng's precious son and said that he wanted to fight with Zhang Changgeng? Let him call people as he pleased?

This… Tiandu suddenly felt that the whole world was in chaos.

What were this kid called Jiang Bai and that big hoodlum called Xu Jie thinking? Were their heads broken?

How many people had Zhang Changgeng raised on the surface over the years?

How many desperadoes were there in those shady businesses under his hands?

There were at least thousands of people in the entire Tiandu and the surrounding cities who made a living with him. Among them, there was no lack of real experts. How could someone dare to say such words?
