Medical Sovereign - Chapter 243
Chapter 243: The Axe Gang’s Plot
The Axe Gang and the Black Knife Camp would have a battle sooner or later, deciding the fate of the college town which had lots of profits. The party that won would definitely purge the three smaller gangs at first.
In this situation, Tang Chengdong sincerely hoped some external force could interfere and form a tripartite confrontation situation, and then the Small Swords Society could profit from the disorderly environment.
But when this new force was more powerful than he imagined, Tang Chengdong generated a new idea.
Fat Buddha was a cunning, smart man who had never fallen into trouble, but when a person trimming his sails like him was also going to turn to Master Yun, it proved that he was very optimistic about the new force of Master Yun.
Therefore, Tang Chengdong, who thought he was not as smart as Fat Buddha, also turned to the idea of submission.
He looked admirable, but nobody but he himself knew his pains, worries, and grievances. During these years, he had been struggling to survive between the fights of different powerful forces as if he had been treading on thin ice.
If he had hardened his heart to give up the brothers who worked with him, he would have gone back to his hometown to live the simple life of a wife and children.
So, Tang Chengdong changed his usual attitude and talked with Ding Ning politely.
Although he had the idea of submission, he had no idea about the real power of Mast Yun. After all, a gang should not only rely on one person’s strong force but its comprehensive power.
If the master had an accident, the gang would crumble soon and be swallowed by the “sharks” that smelled the “blood”.
He was not only himself, but he had a gang of brothers. He must not lead them to a trap, and this was his responsibility as the boss. So, he had to be prudent and decided to wait and see.
Ding Ning suddenly stood up and, his eyes shining, looked at him. “Brother Dong, firstly, I want to let you know I came here tonight with several of my friends only for joy; secondly, I didn’t know this is the territory of the Small Swords Society beforehand, and so there was no reason for us to make trouble; lastly, I am a reasonable person and don’t like making trouble, but it doesn’t mean I am afraid of trouble. As for tonight’s troublemaker, you can ask your brother about the details. I believe he will tell the truth.”
After the talk, Ding Ning gave a light kick with the toe of his shoe, and Black Dragon, a man of 90 kg, flew like a leaf directly to Tang Chengdong.
Tang Chengdong stood up immediately, his face looking quite serious. He was also a warrior and his shoulders could generate hundreds of kilos of strength, but he knew he could not kick a man with his toe so easily like Ding Ning.
He slightly moved his legs apart and stood steady, gathered all his strength to his shoulders, ready to catch Black Dragon, whose limbs were all broken, but he felt a strong surge of energy.
“Clang, clang, clang,” he backed three steps, his face turned sickly red, then he stood steady, but his face revealed a tinge of shock.
Ding Ning held up the heavy like holding up the light, making him great trouble, but he had to thank him because Ding Ning had apparently shown him mercy and only decently used his Hidden Energy twice.
Otherwise, if he had used his Hidden Energy a third time, he would have made him injured seriously.
Ding Ning looked calm, but he felt proud inwardly. After constantly pondering the Hidden Energy he learned from Ji Jun, now he could already divide it into nine waves, with each one being stronger and more destructive than the one past. Being difficult for a person to predict, it was the best secret weapon. If Tang Chengdong had not been polite and he had not shown him mercy, he could have killed him with the fourth wave of his Hidden Energy at most.
“Black Dragon, what happened? Tell me the details.”
Black Dragon’s limbs were all broken, and he would probably have to spend the rest of his life on the wheelchair. Tang Chengdong felt sad for his miserable condition.
But Ding Ning’s power made him dare not show any dissatisfaction, and he had to ask Black Dragon about how the thing happened.
Now Black Dragon already realized that he had clashed with strong power. If he were not careful, he would make great trouble for Brother Dong. Then, he did not dare to hide the truth and told everything in detail neutrally and truthfully.
Tang Chengdong’s expression changed constantly. This was definitely Black Dragon’s fault because he was too arrogant, but anyone living in the underworld needed a reputation, and arrogance was not something unforgivable.
It was also reasonable for Ding Ning to fight for his brothers, but the problem was he was too brutal. He should not have made his man disabled because of such a small matter.
“Brother Dong, it was my fault, I should not have run amuck because our society is powerful, but I swear I did not wish to humiliate the two ladies. I was only angry and wanted to scare them or tear off their clothes to teach them a lesson at most because our gang’s first principle is ‘No raping of others’ wives and daughters, no forced prostitution’. However bold I am, I never dare to violate our principle. I am willing to accept all the punishments.”
Black Dragon put on a sad face and took all the responsibilities.
Tang Chengdong had mixed feelings. Black Dragon had been loyal to him, but he had been disabled now. If he did not defend Black Dragon, his other brothers would feel disheartened.
But Ding Ning’s power was terrifying, and he could not avenge Black Dragon.
But since he could make a living among different powers, had made the Small Swords Society reach today’s scale, and his brothers strongly supported him, he must have an exceptionally charming personality.
Tang Chengdong made his decision quickly and looked at Ding Ning coldly. “Boss Guo, I know I am no rival to you, and Black Dragon was wrong indeed, but your punishment seems to be too serious. It was only a small fight, but you broke his limbs and made him disabled. If I don’t defend him, how can I face these brothers who have been following me through hardships?”
“Brother Dong, however terrifying he is, he is one person. We can make all efforts to fight him.”
“We must avenge Black Dragon. I don’t believe we cannot defend him with the 2,300 lives of the Small Swords Society.”
“If we fail, let’s fall with dignity. Today it is Black Dragon who was disabled, and tomorrow it might be us who get disabled. If we cannot defend him, we will never have the credit to survive as a gang.”
…
Witnessing Black Dragon’s miserable condition, the Small Swords Society’s members became angry immediately, swearing and shouting madly.
Ding Ning’s friends thought the thing had been settled but never expected that the situation had worsened instantly. At once, they became nervous and held the beer bottles fast again in their hands, ready to risk their lives at any moment.
Ding Ning was not afraid at all, his eyes shooting a scaring look. He stared at Tang Chengdong and asked eerily, “Are you sure you want to be my enemy?”
“It’s not that I want to be your enemy, but that I need to get justice for Black Dragon.”
Tang Chengdong was shocked but encouraged himself to stare at Ding Ning’s killing eyes.
“Justice?”
A scornful mockery appeared at the corner of Ding Ning’s mouth. “What is justice? If I had not been here today, my friends would have been bullied by Black Dragon savagely. Ladies humiliated, men beaten, is this justice?”
Hearing this, Tang Chengdong was transfixed. His eyes revealed the feeling of struggling, but instantly he gritted his teeth and said, “We have our principles. I believe Black Dragon will never do anything against these principles.”
“Is that true? But I want to ask Black Dragon, ‘Who did you come to take this box for tonight?’”
Ding Ning’s look was like lightning, and, staring at Black Dragon, asked.
Tang Chengdong was shocked, turning to Black Dragon. “Yes, this is our place. Black Dragon is not stupid, but why did he make trouble in our place? Is there anything funny in this matter?”
“I…”
With dishonesty in his eyes, Black Dragon faltered but did not utter a word.
“Say it! The KTV is so big, there is more than one luxury box, but why did you choose this one?”
After finding he was trying to cover something up, Tang Chengdong was shocked. His face turned dark, and he asked angrily.
“I, I, I did not. Just now, all the luxury boxes were occupied. I was randomly trying to look for one box, but I did not expect such a result.”
With dishonesty in his eyes, Black Dragon explained panickily.
Tang Chengdong looked more and more serious and asked painfully, “Black Dragon, you have been with me for so many years, and I have been treating you as my blood brother. Don’t treat me like an idiot! The KTV has been managed by you, but I know there are unreserved luxury boxes in it. Why did you come here on earth to make trouble?”
“Brother Dong, I, I’m sorry for you, but I did not mean it. I, I really had no choice because the b*stard Yang Kaishan kidnapped Qiuying and asked me to make conflicts. He does not want you to join Master Yun. Otherwise, they would rape Qiuying by turns. You know, Qiuying and I are to be engaged. I’m sorry for you; I’m sorry for you… waaa…”
Black Dragon did not shed tears even after his limbs were broken, but now he cried sadly, making others feel sympathetic for him.
“Bang!”
Tang Chengdong punched the tea table hard and did not even realize his fist was already bleeding. He gritted his teeth and swore, “F*ck you, Yang Kaishan; I f*ck all your ancestors!”
Ding Ning’s eyes showed he was thinking. “Obviously, my powerful interference seems to have caused the five great powers to fight both openly and secretly, but I still don’t know who Yang Kaishan is.”
“The Axe Gang has been trying to attract the Speed Motor Gang, Buddha Hall, and us Small Swords Society, aiming at resisting the Black Knife Camp. Yang Kaishan is the head of the college town branch of the Axe Gang. Fat Buddha has shown obvious signs of joining you, but the Speed Motor Gang and we Small Swords Society have no obvious attitudes. Thus, he must have been anxious and used such scornful tricks, wishing to make conflicts between your party and me. Finally, we will have to join them.”
Tang Chengdong seemed to have known Ding Ning’s concern and explained proactively.
Ding Ning suddenly found the truth, and, nodding slightly, said, “I see. Now, our topmost task is to try to save Black Dragon’s fiancée.”
Black Dragon suddenly stopped sobbing and incredulously looked at Ding Ning, “You, you don’t blame me anymore?”
“I lost nothing, why should I blame you? The one who should blame you is your Brother Dong. For me, I feel unhappy to see some people use such scornful tricks to force others to do something.”
Ding Ning said calmly, “Do you know where they imprison your fiancée?”
Black Dragon nodded heavily, feeling quite sorry. “In Yang Kaishan’s Blessing Gathering Club. I was useless, I was afraid they would hurt Qiuying, so I did not dare to ask them. Thus, I had to be threatened by them.”
Ding Ning’s eyes flickered and whispered in Tang Chengdong’s ear. “Are the men you have brought reliable?”
“Reliable, absolutely reliable, they are all my brothers who have been following me through hardships. If they were not threatened like Black Dragon, they would never betray me.”
Tang Chengdong said decisively. He felt very sad about Black Dragon’s betrayal, but when he thought he was threatened by others and they had been brothers for so many years, he felt relieved.
“If they are reliable, that’s okay. Now, let’s play a show.”
Ding Ning smiled and whispered something in Tang Chengdong’s ear.
Tang Chengdong was astonished, but then he nodded heavily, saying, “Okay, as you say.”
Ding Ning said evilly, “Then, you guys will have to suffer a little.”
“As long as we can save Qiuying, my brothers are not afraid of suffering.”
Tang Chengdong’s eyes sparkled with joy. Ding Ning’s proposal was in line with his intention, for he wanted to use the opportunity to test the power of Master Yun.
