Chapter 130: Steamed Buns

Ye Sanxiao looked at Deng Chao and the leaders of the various gangs with disdain. After tonight, all pretense of harmony would surely be shattered, so he didn't bother with words about stability and unity. He said coldly, "Is the Tianlang Sect trying to stop us, the Axe Gang? Although the Axe Gang has only more than two hundred people now, we can still fight to the death with Leader Deng."

Deng Chao, the leader of the Tianlang Sect, glanced at Ye Sanxiao a few times. He was a man of passion and naturally wasn't afraid of Ye Sanxiao's counter-threat. He snorted heavily and said, "Ye Sanxiao, we know that the Axe Gang has a large number of people and that there are as many despicable people in it as fish crossing the river. But I, Deng Chao, put it here today. If my Tianlang Sect's base was really left with no one alive, then the Tianlang Sect will fight the Axe Gang to the last man."

Huang Tianxiong also took a step forward. His words didn't have the same passion as Deng Chao's. He said calmly, "If I, Huang Tianxiong, find out who wants to leave my Tianxiong Gang with no one alive, my Tianxiong Gang will take revenge by any means necessary."

Ye Sanxiao looked coldly at the people from these gangs, then at Chu Tian and the Jiang Bang. Thinking of his brothers from the Secret Killing Hall whom he had painstakingly trained for half a year, and feeling the pain in his heart, and seeing these gangs becoming aggressive, he was so angry that he blurted out, "I'll tell you. It was me, Ye Sanxiao, who killed everyone in the bases of you trash gangs. What strength do you have? You've been competing with me for territory every day. How could I let you guys mess with me? You were lucky that I didn't eliminate you all here in Shui Xie Hua Du tonight. I don't know if you'll be so lucky tomorrow."

Although the leaders and members of the various gangs knew that their bases might have been in trouble, without seeing the scene of corpses everywhere with their own eyes, no one wanted to believe it was true. Everyone was holding onto a glimmer of hope, hoping to go back and find their bases intact and their living brothers and families. Now, hearing Ye Sanxiao admit it with his own mouth, their hopes were immediately shattered, and hatred welled up in their hearts.

Guan Dongdao of the Ba Dao Association tensed up. Thinking of his beautiful concubines in his base, he became extremely angry. He took up his machete and pointed it directly at Ye Sanxiao, saying, "Ye Sanxiao, did you really attack our base? You're a treacherous person, deceiving us to deal with the Jiang Bang while sending people to attack our bases. You're so vicious. If I let you leave Shui Xie Hua Du alive tonight, I'll jump into the Huangpu River myself."

Deng Chao, the leader of the Tianlang Sect, even had tears in his eyes at this moment. Thinking of his brothers in the base who died without clear reasons, his heart ached as if being stabbed. He couldn't wait to take Ye Sanxiao's head to sacrifice to the dead brothers.

Guan Dongdao's words immediately ignited the passion of the Tianlang Sect and the Tianxiong Gang. Without waiting for their leaders' orders, they unsheathed their knives and clubs with a clatter. There were nearly three hundred capable fighters from the Tianlang Sect, the Tianxiong Gang, and the Ba Dao Association in total. They immediately rushed forward and semi-surrounded the more than two hundred people of the Axe Gang. The members of the Axe Gang also took out their axes, protecting Ye Sanxiao and getting ready for the second fierce battle of the night.

Ye Sanxiao now felt a bit regretful. He regretted that he had been so angry just now and spoken without thinking. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't be afraid of the alliance of these gangs. But now he had already lost hundreds of elite brothers. If the two hundred people around him fought to the death, the Axe Gang would probably be reduced to a small gang starting from tomorrow. It would be hard to say when they could recover their strength and make a comeback. So, Ye Sanxiao didn't want to lose more brothers in a fight now. Moreover, the morale of the elite brothers around him had been severely damaged by Chu Tian and the others, and it would be difficult for them to fight again.

Ye Sanxiao's eyes began to roll, trying to find a way that would save his face and avoid a bloodbath.

Haizi and Guangzi let out a long sigh of relief at this moment. Master Ba also nodded in approval. He didn't expect that the entire unfavorable situation of the Jiang Bang had been completely reversed in an instant. Now, even if Chu Tian and the Green Gang didn't intervene, the Tianlang Sect and the others wouldn't let the Axe Gang touch the Jiang Bang again, nor would they follow the Axe Gang to eliminate the Jiang Bang. Chu Tian was truly a rare talent. At such a young age, with such intelligence and martial arts skills, it was really incredible.

Chu Tian watched the situation in front of him quietly. If this battle really took place, the Jiang Bang would become the overlord of Shanghai starting from tomorrow, and there would be no need to spend much effort dealing with the Axe Gang. Tian Yangsheng, who had no expression on his face, seemed to think that there was nothing left for him to do. He walked to Chu Tian's side with a hint of fatigue. Chu Tian reached out and patted Tian Yangsheng's shoulder gratefully, saying softly, "Thank you."

Tian Yangsheng seemed to have no reaction. He just coldly spat out two words: "Steamed buns."

Chu Tian smiled slightly. He knew that Tian Yangsheng had consumed a lot of physical strength completing the task tonight. Thinking of what Tian Yangsheng had said on the train about "strength", an inexplicable joy welled up in his heart. Eating steamed buns could make one stronger. Only when Tian Yangsheng said such words would Chu Tian believe them. Now that Tian Yangsheng had mentioned "steamed buns" again, it was obvious that if Chu Tian wanted to thank him, he should give him some steamed buns.

With a smile, Chu Tian walked up to Haizi and said in a low voice, "Brother Haizi, could you give me some steamed buns?"

Haizi was slightly taken aback. He didn't know why Chu Tian wanted steamed buns. He thought, surely he wasn't going to eat them? But since Chu Tian asked, he must have a reason. So, he nodded to a brother beside him. A member of the Jiang Bang flashed into the villa to look for steamed buns.

Moments later, the member of the Jiang Bang brought out a large plate of steamed buns, probably more than a dozen. He thought Chu Tian needed them for an important purpose, so he brought more. When Chu Tian saw so many steamed buns, he smiled, thanked the man, took the plate, and slowly walked to Tian Yangsheng's side and handed it to him. Tian Yangsheng took the steamed buns, stretched, and walked to the wall to eat them.

Haizi, Guangzi, and the other brothers of the Jiang Bang were all slightly surprised: So, the steamed buns were really for eating?

Ye Sanxiao had regained his former tactfulness and cunning. Looking at Deng Chao and the others with a smile on his face, he said, "Leader Deng, President Guan, Leader Huang, don't think that the Axe Gang is afraid of you. We weren't afraid before, and we're not afraid tonight either. But if we have a fierce battle tonight, both sides will surely be severely weakened, and the Jiang Bang will take a big advantage. Moreover, what I said just now was just out of anger. You leaders can go back to your bases and see if there's really no one left alive. I, Ye Sanxiao, am an upright person. How could I do such despicable things? Maybe there's nothing wrong with your bases at all, and it's just that the third - in - command wants to take this opportunity to stir up a conflict between us."

No one could deny that Ye Sanxiao's words were reasonable and logical. If it weren't for the despicable deeds done several times by Ye Sanxiao's subordinates, and if it weren't for the fact that Ye Sanxiao had really set up an ambush at the foot of the mountain, the leaders of the various gangs might have hesitated, thinking it was a plan by Chu Tian to make them turn against the Axe Gang and benefit the Jiang Bang. Unfortunately, Ye Sanxiao had already used up all his credibility.

At this moment, some people who had gone down the mountain to check came back. They reported to the leaders with terrified expressions, "Leader, there were indeed a lot of people ambushing on the mountainside. They all had pistols, but they were all killed. It seems they didn't even have a chance to resist. There were even more people in the forest at the foot of the mountain, probably over a hundred. Dozens of them were injured and tied to the trees. Some Green Gang brothers were still dealing with the scene."

When these words were spoken, Ye Sanxiao felt a莫名的 pain in his heart again. As expected, his men were completely wiped out. His eyes angrily swept over Chu Tian and Tian Yangsheng again.

At this time, some of the experts Ye Sanxiao had hired with money saw the dramatic change in the situation. They knew that their martial arts skills were far inferior to those of Chu Tian and Tian Yangsheng. Moreover, when hundreds of people started fighting with knives and clubs later, they didn't know who would kill them. So, they wanted to back out. A man in his forties stepped forward first. Despite feeling embarrassed, he summoned up his courage and said, "Gang Leader Ye, please forgive me for my incompetence and inability to work for you. I'm returning your payment now. Please forgive me." After saying this, he took out a check from his pocket, put it in Ye Sanxiao's hand, and then lowered his head and slowly backed away.

Tian Yangsheng was holding a steamed bun in his hand and leaning against the wall of the villa, slowly biting into it. When he heard that the pistol team on the mountainside had all been killed, he didn't even raise his head and continued to swallow the steamed bun expressionlessly, as if it had nothing to do with him.

With his lead, more than a dozen other hired experts also took out their checks and returned them to Ye Sanxiao, and they also slowly backed away. Because they all knew that Ye Sanxiao was insidious and despicable. If they weren't careful, they would be chopped in half by his axe. Just look at the fates of Liu Danong and Brother Huo.

When the Ba Dao Association, the Tianlang Sect, and the Tianxiong Gang saw that the experts hired by Ye Sanxiao were leaving one after another, their confidence soared even higher. They slowly brandished their knives and clubs. In contrast, the once - arrogant members of the Axe Gang became demoralized and lost their fighting spirit. They were just reluctantly drawing their weapons to confront the other gangs out of fear of Ye Sanxiao's power.

Guan Dongdao of the Ba Dao Association raised his machete and said coldly, "Gang Leader Ye, setting up an ambush with so many people at the foot of the mountain, you're really cautious and have great ambitions. It seems that your real purpose tonight is not just to deal with the Jiang Bang."

Huang Tianxiong also nodded and took a step forward. Although he didn't want to be an enemy of the Axe Gang, the Axe Gang had pushed him to the brink, so he naturally had to fight back. He said, "Ye Sanxiao, tonight it's either you die or I die."

Ye Sanxiao's face finally changed. Seeing the aggressive alliance of the various gangs, he felt their united strength that was willing to fight to the death for the first time. But he still wouldn't show weakness in words. He said, "Aren't you afraid that the Jiang Bang will take advantage of this?"

Deng Chao, the leader of the Tianlang Sect, shook his head and said disdainfully, "We'd rather have the third - in - command of the Jiang Bang unify Shanghai than let the Axe Gang live for one more night." After saying this, he waved his hand gently, and the members of the Tianlang Sect immediately pressed forward.

"Stop!" A loud shout came from the door, full of energy and clear and powerful.

Chu Tian was shocked. The voice was so familiar. Could it be him?
