Chapter 390: Chapter 388: Live Reversal
Qin Hao looked at them with satisfaction and nodded, then arranged the plan for tomorrow one by one before swaggering out of the small building.
Ma Dazhi followed Qin Hao, having personally witnessed Qin Hao’s extraordinary means over recent days, his admiration and respect for Qin Hao as his master growing deeper by the day.
Such methods, such cunning and talents, never had he met a second person comparable in his life. At this moment, Ma Dazhi was thoroughly impressed by Qin Hao’s abilities, and even without the Bone-Eroding Blood Transformation Pill’s control, he willingly regarded Qin Hao as his master and resolved to follow him loyally for life.
The two of them, one in front, one behind, just walked out of the small building’s front door, Ma Dazhi respectfully asked, looking at Qin Hao’s back:
“Master, what are your plans next, are you continuing to organize the others?”
Upon hearing this, Qin Hao gently shook his head and said, “No need. Apart from the Wolf Fang Gang and those six factions truly loyal to the Xiao Family, the rest are nothing but a bunch of opportunists, only concerned about benefits and profits, not the Xiao Family’s survival.”
“We already hold a significant advantage, even if we organize those opportunists, what’s the point? A bunch of good-for-nothings. Besides, do you think the Bone-Eroding Blood Transformation Pill is as cheap as cabbages?”
“Just selling off their petty industries wouldn’t even buy the materials for the pills, I do not have that many pills to waste on a bunch of fools.”
Upon hearing this, Ma Dazhi quickly nodded in agreement, his respect for Qin Hao arising more genuinely.
That night, everything in the villa remained as usual, a peaceful night passed quietly.
A night without words, and early the next morning, the whole villa became busy.
This time, everyone’s faces carried a solemn expression, after all, today was the official day of the assembly.
In the morning, the servants in the villa had already prepared all the arrangements for the venue and meticulously prepared breakfast for each of the prominent figures.
Qin Hao unhurriedly had breakfast with Ma Dazhi, then slowly walked towards the conference room.
The main building of the villa has three floors, the third floor has been completely transformed into a large reception hall, and this formal assembly is held in this reception hall.
On the way to the reception hall, Qin Hao and Ma Dazhi met the six prominent figures from last night, seeing Qin Hao, each had a complex expression; the two groups entered the venue one after another.
Soon, everyone arrived, all sitting upright, quietly waiting for Xiao Jintian’s arrival, however, until ten o’clock in the morning, the assembly officially began, Xiao Jintian did not show up.
Only the Wolf Fang Gang Leader, Zheng Tiancheng, entered the reception hall punctually.
The main seat at the top had been reserved for him, while Ma Dazhi sat in the first high-backed chair to the right of the main seat. He held a cup of clear green tea, his eyes observing, focusing on the tea bowl’s froth patiently.
Meanwhile, Qin Hao, maintaining a calm demeanor, stood behind Ma Dazhi, his gaze slightly lowered, perfectly portraying a diligent bodyguard.
Zheng Tiancheng strode in with a firm demeanor, first clasped his hand to the crowd, then said, “Ladies and gentlemen, since everyone is present, I will not waste words. This assembly, Mr. Xiao Jintian, has some urgent matters, unable to spare himself, so it will be hosted by our Wolf Fang Gang.”
While he was speaking, the hall was absolutely silent, as his words ended, the crowd below hearing that Xiao Jintian indeed wouldn’t attend, immediately stirred slightly.
Low whispers arose instantly.
“Mr. Xiao isn’t coming again, gathering us for this assembly, what’s the point, could the Wolf Fang Gang plan to swallow us?”
“Exactly, everyone came today for Xiao Jintian’s sake, yet Xiao Jintian doesn’t even show up, really unreasonable!”
“Hey, to me, it seems the Xiao Family only regards the Wolf Fang Gang as their own, even if we willingly present ourselves, they still wouldn’t want to see us.”
“Hmph, this assembly, truly almost pointless, I would follow Mr. Xiao without a second thought, but asking us to follow the Wolf Fang Gang, what’s the matter?”
“Right, just afraid that by then we accomplish everything, yet the credit is snatched by the Wolf Fang Gang. By then our brothers dying to complete the tasks, and Xiao Jintian not even knowing who we are.”
Around that time, low whispers intertwined beneath, the whole reception hall was filled with murmurs. Qin Hao standing behind Ma Dazhi, watching this scene, was not surprised at all.
Those loyal to the Xiao Family are just a few factions, Xiao Jintian wanting the rest of the underground forces to work for him without even appearing, indeed a bit naive.
While Zheng Tiancheng stood above, observing the reactions of everyone present, all captured by him.
He naturally understood the concern of these people, but Zheng Tiancheng cared little.
With the Wolf Fang Gang’s strength here and those six underground forces constantly fostered by Xiao Jintian joining, the entire Provincial Government’s underground forces are already eighty percent controlled. Though these remaining people seem sizeable, actually nothing more than a group easily subdued, as long as the dominant trend is grasped in hand, whether they are willing or not, they will obediently serve the Wolf Fang Gang.
Xiao Jintian’s move, on a deeper level, might also have the intention of taking this chance to unify the Provincial Government’s underground forces thoroughly.
Zheng Tiancheng understood this deeply, with an increasingly disdainful expression, he looked at the crowd below discussing, directly stating coldly, “What, Mr. Xiao is not coming today, and you have complaints? Should I convey everyone’s thoughts to Mr. Xiao?”
His tone was icy, everyone present immediately responded with a shock, promptly saying:
“No, no, Gang Leader Zheng, what you said, where did you get that from, Mr. Xiao is incredibly busy, we all understand, truly understand.”
“Exactly, Mr. Xiao recently has suffered the profound pain of losing a son, such a major issue, with the vast Xiao Family enterprise, all weighing solely on him, we are genuinely worried for Mr. Xiao!”
“Indeed, Gang Leader Zheng, if you must convey messages, ensure delivering our regards, all these people of us are genuinely concerned about Mr. Xiao!”
Zheng Tiancheng’s lips curled with a mocking smile, then he said, “Hmph, that’s better. Mr. Xiao summoned everyone today’s purpose, I believe everyone is already quite clear.”
“Now is the time to test your loyalty to Mr. Xiao. The saying ‘hardship reveals strong grass’, do not let me down!”
