Chapter 155: The Dream Night

At the entrance of Shuixie Huadu, the members of the Shuai Jun saw Chu Tian getting out of the car while holding Ke'er's charming waist. There were faint, bright smiles on their faces. You see, Shuixie Huadu was basically like a "monastery" where even the cleaners and cooks were men. Now, seeing Ke'er's intoxicating dimples, soft figure, and delicate skin that seemed to be breakable with a gentle touch, how could they not feast their eyes?

Ke'er nestled beside Chu Tian. Looking at the energetic and high-spirited members of the Shuai Jun, she smiled sweetly. Immediately, the members of the Shuai Jun became excited and couldn't help but shout, "Hello, sister-in-law! Sister-in-law is so beautiful!"

Ke'er let out an "oh" and was startled by this earth-shaking momentum. Chu Tian smiled slightly and said softly to Ke'er, "Ke'er, don't be afraid. They are all my brothers, brothers who will share life and death with me."

While speaking, Haizi and Guangzi came out. When they saw Ke'er, they were also slightly taken aback. They secretly marveled at how truly admirable the third brother was. There were always several extremely exquisite girls appearing by his side from time to time. It seemed that picking up girls really required some talent.

Chu Tian introduced Haizi, Guangzi, and Ke'er to each other, and then asked the members of the Shuai Jun to take Ke'er to settle down. Then he pulled Haizi and Guangzi to lie down on the marble at the entrance. The members of the Shuai Jun immediately brought them three bottles of green tea. They were already used to the style of the Young Master and Guangzi. They had no airs, were approachable, and cared about their subordinates, so they were naturally loved by the members of the Shuai Jun.

Chu Tian unscrewed the green tea bottle and carefully recounted what had happened today. Haizi and Guangzi listened with fear and were extremely angry at the same time. They were scared because if Chu Tian had been just one second slower, he might have lost his life by the lake of Yunshui Mountain Residence. They were angry because the Jiang Bang had actually ignored the rules and the code of the underworld, sending people for assassination and even involving the Japanese Yamaguchi-gumi.

Guangzi propped himself up on one side of his body and said angrily, "Third brother, how about we launch a full-scale attack tonight? We can organize an elite team and directly go to Zhangsun Jincheng and give that old guy a good scare."

Haizi also let out a sigh. He really hadn't expected that Zhangsun Jincheng, whom he had respected so much in the past, would resort to such unscrupulous means. He was even worse than Ye Sanxiao. So he said, "Third brother, I have no objections to whatever you want to do to deal with Zhangsun Jincheng now."

Chu Tian smiled softly and said indifferently, "A direct confrontation isn't the best strategy now. The reason we were able to reach Ye Sanxiao last time was because Uncle Wang provided support. Now, Changfu Garden can't be said to be an impregnable fortress, but with the scheming of Zhangsun Jincheng and Zhangsun Zijun, it's definitely not that easy to break into. Even if we manage to break in, many of our brothers will die, and that really isn't worth it."

Haizi and Guangzi nodded slightly. This was indeed the truth. Moreover, they didn't know if there were any masters in Changfu Garden. Since Sister Li could spend a large sum of money to hire more than a dozen killers from the "Sakura All Over the Sky" organization of the Yamaguchi-gumi, it was hard to say that she hadn't hired killers from other organizations.

Guangzi was always more impulsive by nature. Seeing that a direct confrontation wasn't an option, he picked up the green tea and took a big gulp, almost finishing half of the bottle. Then he said to Chu Tian, "Third brother, so what should we do now? If we don't strike first, there's no guarantee that the Jiang Bang won't do something else. Besides, the third hall master of the Jiang Bang is dead, and the Jiang Bang will definitely hold you accountable for this."

Chu Tian also took a sip of the tea. He already had a countermeasure in mind. He turned to Haizi and said, "Brother Hai, tonight, you can ask the members of the Shuai Jun to launch a full-scale attack, a quick, fierce, and accurate attack."

Haizi and Guangzi were slightly taken aback again and said in unison, "Third brother, didn't you oppose a direct confrontation?"

Chu Tian smiled, touched his nose, and said, "I didn't say a direct confrontation. I want you to attack those small gangs that have just joined the Jiang Bang. Beat them up severely. You can smash, rob, or do whatever, but don't kill them. If you kill them, the effect of my 'Forcing the Fish to Compete for Food' strategy won't be achieved."

Guangzi was very confused. He touched his bald head and looked at Haizi helplessly. Why was it that the third brother's words always made it hard for people to understand?

Haizi thought for a moment and immediately understood. He said, "Third brother, do you mean to make those small gangs and factions that have newly joined the Jiang Bang feel panicked by attacking them, and at the same time, cause them heavy losses? Then they will go to Zhangsun Jincheng to cry for help, asking him to avenge them and provide them with new supplies and manpower support. In this way, we can gradually undermine Zhangsun Jincheng's real strength?"

Chu Tian nodded in approval and elaborated, "Brothers, you can imagine that these newly attached small gangs haven't really been assimilated by the Jiang Bang yet and haven't created benefits for the Jiang Bang. If we only attack these newly attached small gangs, will Zhangsun Jincheng start a full-scale war against the Shuai Jun for their sake?"

Haizi and Guangzi shook their heads simultaneously and said, "No."

"Then will Zhangsun Jincheng provide them with supplies and manpower to rebuild?" Chu Tian asked another question and then took a sip of green tea.

Haizi and Guangzi said in unison again, "Zhangsun Jincheng doesn't even have enough supplies and manpower to arm his own direct-line third hall with those from the small gangs. How could he provide them with support?"

Chu Tian nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Then let me ask you two brothers another question. Those small gangs are under the name of the Jiang Bang. Now they have been bullied severely, and their leader not only doesn't help them but also doesn't provide any support. Would you work hard for such a leader? Would you resent such a leader?"

Guangzi had already figured it out by now. He clapped his hands and said, "If it were me, I would probably resent that leader more than the people who robbed my territory. I might even turn my gun against him. After all, I would have nothing left anyway."

Haizi also nodded and praised, "This is what the third brother calls 'Forcing the Fish to Compete for Food'. We force those small gangs to ask Zhangsun Jincheng for support. If he gives it, his direct-line strength will be weakened. If he doesn't, these small gangs might defect and seize Zhangsun Jincheng's territory. Third brother, this move is really brilliant."

Guangzi stood up, grinned, and said, "Tonight, let the brothers have a good fight. I'll go arrange the manpower first." After saying that, Guangzi disappeared. He was a natural fighter and a warlike person.

Chu Tian lay down again. The changes in the clouds and wind in the sky were all within Chu Tian's sight.

This night, Shanghai was not so peaceful. Overnight, more than twenty venues of the Jiang Bang were smashed to pieces by the members of the Shuai Jun. The small bosses who had joined the Jiang Bang and become new hall masters and leaders called Zhangsun Zijun and Zhangsun Jincheng, who were sleeping soundly. When Zhangsun Jincheng heard about the full-scale attack by the Shuai Jun, he was first surprised. Then he asked Zhangsun Zijun to quickly inquire if there was anything wrong with the direct-line third hall. After hearing that they were unharmed, Zhangsun Jincheng finally felt relieved. Since his direct-line forces were okay, everything was fine. As for those newly joined small gangs, he let them fend for themselves. If they were eliminated by the Shuai Jun, it wouldn't hurt the foundation of the Jiang Bang. If they fought a life-and-death battle with the Shuai Jun, that would be even better. Using these small gangs to deplete the viable forces of the Shuai Jun was also a very cost-effective thing.

Zhangsun Zijun had similar thoughts to Zhangsun Jincheng. But she always felt a bit restless this night. That night, when Director Huang ordered the raid on ten important economic sources of the Jiang Bang, and Han Zhenjian, the third hall master of the Jiang Bang, was killed, Zhangsun Zijun was severely scolded by Old Master Han. After that, she went crazy looking for Director Huang, who had deceived both money and love. However, she found that Director Huang had completely disappeared without a trace in Shanghai.

Since then, Zhangsun Zijun had started to feel restless. She always felt that the situation was becoming more and more difficult to control. She could only comfort herself that there were too many trivial matters and too much pressure. She began to hope that Sister Li, who had gone to Thailand to find helpers, would come back soon to help her. Thinking of Sister Li, Zhangsun Zijun remembered the group of killers that Sister Li had left behind. She wondered if they were planning to kill Chu Tian, the one who had made her and her father lose so many things.

Those new hall masters and small leaders saw that they had held on for half an hour, but that old guy Zhangsun Jincheng didn't even say a word. Instead, he anxiously made excuses, saying that he was also under attack. These new hall masters and small leaders were no strangers to the underworld. They wouldn't be deceived by Zhangsun Jincheng. Seeing that no support was coming and that the members of the Shuai Jun were all high-spirited and well-trained, they estimated that they couldn't hold on for long. So they cursed Zhangsun Jincheng through gritted teeth and retreated. After seeing them retreat, the members of the Shuai Jun didn't pursue them. Instead, they took whatever they could from their belongings and smashed the rest. Anyway, they made them go to their own boss for reimbursement.

Some of the new hall masters and small leaders who fled to Changfu Garden saw that Changfu Garden was as quiet as a haunted place and there were no signs of being attacked at all. This further confirmed their suspicions. That old guy was selfish. He called them a family on the surface, but in reality, he clearly distinguished between the central and local forces. At this moment, these new hall masters and small leaders didn't care that Zhangsun Jincheng was the gang leader anymore. They pushed aside the guards at the gate and noisily went to find Zhangsun Jincheng to ask for an explanation.

Heijian of the Tianlang Sect, who was not far away in a van, watched the commotion and chaos in Changfu Garden. He quickly waved his hand. The men of the Tianlang Sect immediately started the van and drove quickly past the gate of Changfu Garden. Taking advantage of the guards inside blocking those hall masters and small leaders, several brothers at the back of the van quickly threw the twelve bodies of the members of "Sakura All Over the Sky" at the gate of Changfu Garden and then quickly left Changfu Garden.

This night was destined to be a nightmare night for Zhangsun Jincheng and Zhangsun Zijun.

At this moment, Chu Tian had just finished taking a shower and pushed open the door of his room. Chu Tian heard a "gulp" in his throat. A faint fragrance of cherry blossoms wafted over. A woman as white as jade, lying obliquely on the bed, was covered with a thin towel. When she saw Chu Tian push the door in, she smiled sweetly, waved her hand gently, and said softly, "Young Master, I have already finished washing. Please enjoy."

Chu Tian slowly walked to the bedside and smiled slightly, "Ke'er, you always surprise me." Ke'er didn't say anything. She smiled charmingly, stretched out her slender jade-like legs, and hooked the towel wrapped around Chu Tian's waist with her toes. With a gentle pull, the towel instantly fell to the ground.

The outside world was lively and not quiet at all. The Young Master's room in Shuixie Huadu was also lively and not quiet.
