"Annihilate the Wolf Fang Gang and dominate Shi Yan City!"
With this single command from Mo Yu, everyone present froze momentarily before breaking into expressions of delight.
The reason they chose to follow Mo Yu was his power and background. However, they hadn't expected that his very first order as the new master would be so bold.
Dominating Shi Yan City—this was something they had never dared to imagine. Even at the peak of the Fierce Tiger Gang's power, it wasn't something they could accomplish. Now, it looked as though it might finally become a reality.
With this thought, the crowd's spirits were lifted. Once a person has a goal, their entire demeanor changes!
Watching everyone around him, now roaring like a pack of battle wolves, Mo Yu smiled slightly and walked out of the hall.
Since the Yuan Manor had just been established, as its master, he needed to assert his authority. And the Wolf Fang Gang was his perfect target for establishing his reputation.
Furthermore, Yuan Manor was still relatively weak. If they could absorb the Wolf Fang Gang, Yuan Manor's influence would grow rapidly.
With Shi Yan City as their base, one day, Yuan Manor would gradually dominate the entire Black-Corner Region.
As Mo Yu led the group out of the hall, Zi Huo followed closely behind. Behind him, Ling Feng quickly gathered fifty elite combatants, raised the newly crafted Yuan Manor flag, and, with murderous intent, the group surged out of the headquarters, heading straight for the Wolf Fang Gang's territory.
On the bustling street, passersby quickly stepped aside upon seeing the fierce-looking group. They gazed at the men with curious eyes, whispering to each other.
"Aren't they from the Fierce Tiger Gang? Why are they out now? Aren't they afraid of the Wolf Fang Gang?"
"You're behind on the news. I heard the Fierce Tiger Gang has pledged loyalty to a mysterious young man. This young man has a powerful background, and he even has a Dou Wang expert with him. With such strong support, the Fierce Tiger Gang is bound to rise!"
"Look at that flag—they've even changed their name. They're no longer called the Fierce Tiger Gang; they'll now be known as 'Yuan Manor.'"
"Yuan Manor? I wonder who this new master is?"
"Look, it's that silver-eyed youth leading them. Impressive, right? I heard the Wolf Fang Gang's leader, Ye Cang, once fled in fear of him."
A bystander who seemed to know some inside information looked at the silver-eyed young man leading the group with admiration.
"No way! That youth is only twenty, right? How could he defeat Ye Cang, a five-star Dou Ling?"
"The youth himself might not be able to, but the towering man behind him could. I saw him take down dozens of Wolf Fang members with a single roar and severely injure Ye Cang with one punch. He's likely a Dou Wang expert."
"With a Dou Wang expert as backup, Yuan Manor could be considered a second-rate force in the Black-Corner Region. The Wolf Fang Gang is in serious trouble. From now on, Shi Yan City will have a new ruler. I wonder how far this newly established Yuan Manor can go…" the bystander mused.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Mo Yu and his group walked through several streets. A little over ten minutes later, the heavily fortified Wolf Fang Gang headquarters came into view.
At the moment, due to their leader's injuries, a large group of Wolf Fang members stood at the gates, nervously patrolling with weapons in hand, their faces tense and grave.
When they saw the large group of former Fierce Tiger members approaching, panic surged across their faces. A few Wolf Fang members scrambled inside to report the arrival.
Watching the group of trembling guards at the gate, Mo Yu and his men halted.
"This is Wolf Fang Gang territory. What are you here for?" A skinny Wolf Fang member called out in a shaky voice, trying to sound fierce.
"For now, it is. Soon, it won't be. Tell Ye Cang to come out, and I might let him live," Mo Yu said calmly.
Silence. Every member of the Wolf Fang Gang at the gate remained quiet, watching the silver-eyed youth standing before them.
They already knew from the previous encounter that their leader had been seriously injured in a single blow by the towering man behind the silver-eyed youth.
"Forget it. Let's just break in," Mo Yu said indifferently, stepping forward.
As he took a step, dozens of Wolf Fang members instinctively stepped forward to block the way.
"Move aside!"
Seeing the obstruction, Zi Huo, a massive figure, leapt forward, raised his right hand, and pushed it forward.
With an effortless wave of his palm, a fierce energy surged forth, crashing into the dozens of Wolf Fang members like a storm. The force was strong enough to lift a boulder, hitting them squarely in the chest.
"Pfft, pfft…"
The impact hit them like a massive weight, sending blood spraying from their mouths, creating a rain of blood.
Seeing the cleared doorway, Mo Yu glanced at the scattered and bleeding members of the Wolf Fang Gang and turned to his Yuan Manor comrades. "Let's go."
With that, he stepped through the doorway as if it were his own home.
Following Zi Huo's lead, Ling Feng and the others walked in without a chance to intervene. Zi Huo, the hall master, seemed like a one-man army, effortlessly toppling the entire Wolf Fang Gang.
Inside the tightly closed hall, dozens of people paced nervously. Hearing the distant screams outside, panic spread across their faces, filling the hall with a tense atmosphere.
As the group's fear grew, the hall's heavy doors shattered, splintering into countless pieces.
Standing in the doorway, with wood chips floating around him, the silver-eyed youth emerged into view.
"Everyone, is hiding in here really that fun?" Mo Yu's faintly mocking voice drifted in.
At the sound of his soft chuckle, everyone's hearts clenched slightly. Looking at the doorway, they saw the silver-eyed youth standing there, smiling warmly in the sunlight that cast a glow around him. But, in his enchanting silver eyes, there was no trace of warmth—only a cold indifference.
Seeing Mo Yu's figure, the people in the hall quickly took a few steps back.
Mo Yu scanned the hall as he slowly walked in, with Zi Huo, Ling Feng, and the others following closely, eyeing the other group maliciously.
"Hmm, where's Ye Cang? I don't see him," Mo Yu murmured, squinting his silver eyes in confusion.
Hearing his question, the Wolf Fang members looked at each other. When Mo Yu started to grow impatient, they finally pushed forward a middle-aged man, a seven-star Da Dou Shi.
The man cupped his hands toward Mo Yu with a bitter smile. "Sir, upon hearing you were coming, Leader Ye Cang fled with his trusted followers. Now, the Wolf Fang Gang only has us left..."
Mo Yu was momentarily taken aback. He hadn't expected Ye Cang to abandon the gang and flee so decisively.
But a minor character like that wasn't worth his concern. He wouldn't pose any real threat.
Looking at the remaining Wolf Fang members, Mo Yu spoke playfully, "Your gang has harmed the Fierce Tiger Gang, causing them heavy losses."
"Now, the Fierce Tiger Gang has submitted to me and is renamed Yuan Manor. I believe we should settle the issue between us. The losses, whether to the Fierce Tiger Gang or Yuan Manor—how do you propose we account for them?"
"…"
Cold sweat dripped down the faces of the Wolf Fang members. Without bothering to wipe it away, the middle-aged man replied in a trembling voice, "We can offer five hundred thousand gold coins as compensation to Yuan Manor. Would that be acceptable?"
Mo Yu smiled and shook his head.
"Then Eight hundred thousand?"
"Eight hundred thousand?" Watching Mo Yu continue to shake his head, his smile growing colder, the middle-aged man finally admitted in despair, "Sir, please tell us what you really want. With your strength, our Wolf Fang Gang has no chance of resisting."
At this point, everyone in the Wolf Fang Gang had lost hope. Given the terrifying strength of Yuan Manor, they had no grounds to negotiate.
Beside the silver-eyed youth stood a man built like an iron tower, exuding a terrifying aura. His dark eyes, like those of a fierce magical beast, emitted a chilling light that made people's hearts tremble.
"Merge the Wolf Fang Gang into Yuan Manor," Mo Yu said calmly, tapping his finger gently on the back of his hand. "Low-ranking members can be given some money and dismissed… Members at the Dou Shi level and above can stay and be integrated into Yuan Manor."
Hearing Mo Yu's words, everyone in the hall was momentarily stunned. Those originally from the Fierce Tiger Gang were first surprised, then overjoyed.
If Yuan Manor truly absorbed the Wolf Fang Gang, not only would they dominate Shi Yan City, but it would also be difficult for nearby forces in other cities to compete with them. Yuan Manor's development would skyrocket!
As part of Yuan Manor, the better Yuan Manor developed, the more benefits they would gain.
While Ling Feng and the others were delighted, the remaining members of the Wolf Fang Gang exchanged uncertain glances, feeling stirred.
Having been abandoned by Ye Cang, they were already resentful. If they had time to escape, they would have long since left the Wolf Fang Gang behind. Naturally, they held no loyalty to the gang.
So, hearing Mo Yu's invitation to join Yuan Manor, many felt inclined to accept.
Although Yuan Manor was newly established, with a Dou Wang powerhouse overseeing it, its future rise was not out of the question.
Wouldn't joining Yuan Manor now be better than staying in the Wolf Fang Gang, which even its leader had deserted?
"So, do you choose to join Yuan Manor, or shall I clear you out? Decide for yourselves…" Mo Yu paused here, then added with a smile, "I hope you won't disappoint me again."
Under the gaze of those eerie silver eyes, the remaining Wolf Fang Gang members shuddered. They had already been intimidated by Zi Huo's formidable strength, but now they realized how terrifying this young leader was.
Thinking this over, the group no longer hesitated, kneeling before Mo Yu and pledging, "We greet the Manor Lord!"
After taking in the remnants of the Wolf Fang Gang, Mo Yu remained calm. After a moment's thought, he spoke slowly, "Since you're willing to join Yuan Manor, you'll be assigned to the Lion Hall."
"Oh, and this person beside me is named Zi Huo. He's the Lion Hall Master. You'll follow his orders from now on." Mo Yu pointed to Zi Huo beside him.
While Ye Cang had taken some close followers with him, nearly a hundred elite Wolf Fang Gang members remained, including over a dozen Da Dou Shi.
If this force were placed in the Fierce Tiger Hall, Ling Feng wouldn't be able to control them. It would be better to assign them to Zi Huo's Lion Hall, sparing Zi Huo from being a lone commander.
With Zi Huo's strength, subduing these people would be effortless.
Of course, Mo Yu didn't hold the Wolf Fang Gang members in high regard. In his mind, the Lion Hall would be Yuan Manor's most powerful combat department, a blade at Yuan Manor's disposal.
However, with Yuan Manor in its infancy, there were no strict requirements. When everything stabilized, the Lion Hall would gradually eliminate the weak, refining itself into a sharp blade.
Upon hearing they'd be placed under Zi Huo, many Wolf Fang members glanced at the iron-tower-like figure and forced a bitter smile.
Zi Huo's intimidating aura made them fear him from the bottom of their hearts, extinguishing any thoughts of rebellion.
"Greetings, Hall Master Zi Huo!"
With the absorption complete, Mo Yu nodded slightly, slowly rising. Turning to Ling Feng, he said, "Prepare for the merger. Remove the leeches within the Wolf Fang Gang. Remember, Yuan Manor has no room for those who only bully the weak."
After speaking, Mo Yu turned and headed out of the hall, and Ling Feng, glancing at the apprehensive Wolf Fang Gang members, quickly followed.
As the former Fierce Tiger Gang members followed Mo Yu, looking at his slender back, they felt somewhat dizzy.
In just half a day, the largest force in Shi Yan City had been forcibly merged into Yuan Manor? The dramatic turn of events made them feel as if they were dreaming.
Unknowingly, they began to feel a growing sense of identity with Yuan Manor. Perhaps, one day, Yuan Manor would make a name for itself in the Black-Corner Region.
When that day came, as members of Yuan Manor, they too would share in its glory!
