Chapter 34 - Who's in Favor? Who's Against?

Han Shaoqing didn't dodge the bullets flying towards him.

There was no need to.

Dozens of bullets were held in mid-air by Han Shaoqing's Gravity Field, unable to get close.

The Chaoshan Gang members' expressions changed upon seeing this; such a feat was simply unbelievable.

Had the times changed again?

"It seems you don't want to listen to me, then don't!"

After a self-deprecating remark, Han Shaoqing raised his hand, and several gunmen, the Eighth Elder, and the Fourth Elder were immediately drawn up into the air by an invisible force.

"I'm new here, and I need to make an example. Unfortunately, you're the chickens."

The words had barely left his mouth when Han Shaoqing made a grasping motion with his right hand. An invisible force field began to compress the bodies of the Eighth Elder, the Fourth Elder, and several gunmen from all directions.

"Aah!!!"

Under the intense compression of the Gravity Field, their bodies were like they'd been hit by a steamroller falling from the sky. They exploded instantly, blood and flesh splattering everywhere, a truly gruesome scene.

Except for Han Shaoqing, who was protected by his own force field, everyone else in the room was splattered with blood to varying degrees.

"This… what exactly is this power?"

Yang Yongjiu was drenched in blood, as if struck by lightning. His pupils shrank, his face was filled with horror, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.

The other elders were also stunned by the bloody scene. They stared at Han Shaoqing with fear, not daring to move, fearing they would be misunderstood and suffer the same fate.

The guards outside, hearing the gunshots, pushed the door open. Seeing that several of the elders had turned into blood-soaked figures, and then looking at Han Shaoqing opposite them, some of the gunmen immediately reached for their guns. The Second Elder, drenched in cold sweat, quickly shouted to stop them.

"Don't be rude. Get out, all of you."

The underlings withdrew from the room upon hearing this.

Only Han Shaoqing and a few old men remained.

"Alright, I know many of you don't want to hear me ramble anymore. So, I'll say it again. I want Wu Shihao to be the head of the Chaoshan Gang. Who agrees? Who objects?"

Han Shaoqing's voice wasn't loud, but everyone in the room heard him clearly.

Looking at the Eighth Elder, the Fourth Elder, and the others, who were now a pile of indistinguishable flesh, who would dare to object?

Second Elder immediately stated his position: "I agree."

Third Elder Yang Yongjiu followed suit: "I also agree."

"Agreed."

"Agreed."

The other Elders quickly nodded in agreement as well.

The disparity in strength was too great. The other side wasn't even afraid of guns, and could turn people into minced meat with a wave of a hand. Who would dare to voice opposition at a time like this? Were they tired of living?

"Very good. I like to keep things simple. I know you're all dissatisfied, but that's alright. I welcome you to seek revenge at any time, but you only get one chance. If you can't kill me, I'll kill your entire families."

Han Shaoqing lit another cigarette, took a drag, and exhaled a smoke ring. He continued, "Also, Wu Shihao is my man. If anyone in the Chaoshan Gang disobeys him or engages in underhanded dealings during his management, you're disrespecting me. If I get angry, you'll be the ones to suffer. If anything happens to Ahao, regardless of the reason, I'll hold you old geezers accountable first. Do you all understand?"

Han Shaoqing didn't need to care about what these people thought; he ruled with an iron fist.

They were all just parasites on society anyway. Trying to reason with them would be utterly useless.

This world doesn't have law-abiding criminals. Once you're on this path of no return, it's all about who's the most ruthless and who has the biggest fists.

There's no need to take those old geezers, already half-buried, too seriously.

If anyone dares to stir up trouble, Han Shaoqing will take them down. He wants to be direct and brutal.

He's here today to establish his authority.

These old foxes, having clawed their way to their current positions, are more afraid of death than anyone else.

Maybe they were daring and bold in their younger days, but now, sitting in high positions, they've become very protective of their lives. The more a person possesses, the more they fear losing it.

That's the saying: the older you get in the jianghu, the smaller your guts become!

As long as Han Shaoqing is around, even if they harbor resentment, they wouldn't dare to play any tricks.

As for whether Wu Shihao could hold his own and completely control the Chaoshan Gang, that depended on his own abilities.

After making his statement, Han Shaoqing swaggered out of the room, quickly disappearing from the sight of the Chaoshan Gang members.

However, in reality, Han Shaoqing stopped at a beef offal stall a mile away and ordered a bowl of it. He ate while listening in on the old fellows' conversation from afar.

Better safe than sorry. He'd finally found a promising underling, and if he ran into someone stubborn, he might die before his mission was accomplished.

Fortunately, these old fellows were sensible, or perhaps they were just deep thinkers, as they didn't show any strong resistance.

With Han Shaoqing's support, Wu Shihao took office the next day, becoming the person in charge of the Chaoshan Gang.

However, his authority had all been established by Han Shaoqing.

Although the people of the Chaoshan Gang didn't say it out loud, they still had many complaints about Wu Shihao becoming the person in charge, but they dared not voice them out of fear of Han Shaoqing's power.

Han Shaoqing wouldn't interfere with how Wu Shihao handled the Chaoshan Gang. The stage was set for him; how he performed was up to Wu Shihao.

Lei Luo, upon learning that Wu Shihao had become the head of the Chaoshan Gang, immediately sought out Han Shaoqing and chose to submit.

Now, with Lei Luo in the white way and Wu Shihao in the black way, Han Shaoqing could be considered to have a foundation.

The next step was to grow and strengthen, making both the black and white ways submit to his will.

To achieve great things, besides being able to fight and endure, three conditions were needed.

Money, money, and fucking money!

Coincidentally, Han Shaoqing had quite a few valuable jewels.

These could be entrusted to Wu Shihao to sell, in exchange for a large amount of cash.

With money, it would be much easier to recruit soldiers, cultivate one's own confidants, or grease the wheels.

Killing was just a means to an end; Han Shaoqing didn't want to kill people casually unless it was necessary.

However, Xiangjiang was only so big. If Lei Luo and Wu Shihao wanted to grow and expand, they would inevitably touch upon the interests of others.

They could usually handle ordinary problems.

But sometimes, they would encounter some tricky ones, like the situation at hand.

"Rakshasa Sect! What's their deal?"

Han Shaoqing arrived at the hospital, looking at Wu Shihao who was hooked up to an IV drip, his gaze sweeping over the few elders who were terrified on the side.

He hadn't been training or wandering around in the past few days, seeing if there were any places in Xiangjiang he could check out, but he hadn't found anything.

Today, Wu Shihao went out to talk with Yi'an, and was attacked by people from the Rakshasa Sect. If he hadn't had a few gunmen with him, he might not have made it back.

The Second Elder explained, "The Rakshasa Sect is a folk organization of extraordinary individuals. They emerged ten years ago, causing a bloodbath. Their leader is called the Fire Cloud Evil God. He always wears a mask and is very mysterious. His strength is also unfathomable. He once swept through the four major gangs of Xiangjiang in a single night. Later, he issued the Rakshasa Order, and whoever obtained the Rakshasa Order among the four major gangs could become the leader."

"Extraordinary individuals? Fire Cloud Evil God?"

Hearing these familiar terms, Han Shaoqing frowned, feeling that things were not simple.
