Chapter 185: Counterattack!

Chapter 185: Counterattack!

“Boss Bai, it’s not that I’m not loyal. But you also know how many subordinates I have under me, and I can’t just ignore that they have to make a living too.” A bald man wearing only a shirt in the November weather, while many others were wearing coats and jackets. The shirt he wore exposed the green tattoo on his arm.

Boss Bai looked at the man in front of him coldly, these were the smaller gangs who were his vessels, and had been blessed by the Bai gang all this time. At this time, when the Bai gang was suffering, they didn’t wait long before jumping ship into the Qingyun gang. He took out a cigarette, and Ah Gen hurried forward to pull out a lighter to light it.

“Every man has their ambitions.” Boss Bai took a deep puff of the cigarette, a faint expression on his face. “Go on, get out of here.”

Although Boss Bai’s name was not as bloodied as Li Xiang’s, he was still someone from the underworld, how could there not be blood on his hands? The bald man was a bit stunned at the dismissal, and he was also slightly fearful of the people that Yao Jiamu had brought. Their stern eyes were all on him, and he couldn’t stand the intimidating gazes after a while, turning to leave with his own group of people.

“Boss, if you talk to Boss Bai like this, when the time comes, will he…” One of the subordinates of the bald man looked a little worried at that.

The bald man snorted at the words. “Boss Bai? He’s not the same Boss Bai that he was. Don’t worry about it, after tonight, he’ll just be another stray dog on the streets, maybe even in prison. We should take the chance today, and hurry into the ranks of the Qingyun gang. If we’re too late, we’d be looked down upon by the others later…”

Before he could finish his words, he was met with an astonishing sight.

The Bai gang and the Qingyun gang both occupied the east side and west side of the Imperial Capital respectively. The two gangs had never gotten along, and were like oil and water.

The bald man had also come to the Qingyun gang after receiving reliable information, even Bai Jianbin had left the Bai gang. Anyone on the streets with eyes could tell that this was the end of the Bai gang, and although some felt regretful that it was happening, they had to stand on their sides immediately, and he was also of the same mindset.

“Boss…” His men muttered, his voice trembling.

They had rushed to the Qingyun gang base immediately in excitement, but when they reached the street where the gang was located, they saw a large number of police officers. They weren’t regular officers either, but a large team of special ops.

Throughout the history of the underworld, there had never been such a big case like this. Sometimes, the police had to lurk and dig for a very long time just to painstakingly find sufficient evidence to capture a drug lord. So no matter how exaggerated the Qingyun gang and the Bai gang got, the police would be hesitant to move because they couldn’t gather enough evidence.

The fact that there were so many police officers dispatched, and even the presence of the special ops could only mean one thing here, and that was the police had finally gotten hard, solid evidence against the Qingyun gang!

But, how was that possible?

Shouldn’t all this be happening to the Bai gang?!

Cold sweat slid down the side of his face as the regret swelled up in his chest. The only one who would dare to touch the Qingyun gang would only be the Bai gang. It was ridiculous to think that the Bai gang would be destroyed just like that, and he was even mocking them a second ago! If they had even anticipated the Qingyun gang’s move like this, what more a smaller gang like his? He could easily be crushed if he wasn’t careful with his words!

He didn’t expect the Bai gang, who was clearly at a huge disadvantage with all their cards held against them, to be able to turn the tables like this in the end.

Since when had the Bai gang become so terrifying?

***

At the Bai gang’s base, Boss Bai walked in slowly, seeing Yao Jiamu moving things at Gu Xiqiao’s instructions dutifully, and he was unsure why he felt that it was a funny scene to walk into. “Little Yao, you should take your people and go, and also Miss Gu. The police should be coming soon.”

Yao Jiamu glanced up to see Boss Bai, and his expression brightened immediately. “Boss Bai, you’re here just in time, come on over here.”

“It’s fine, hurry up and leave!” Seeing Yao Jiamu’s happy expression, Boss Bai pressed the side of his temples, trying not to frown too hard. How could he still be so excited and happy at this time? Was there something not right in his head? He hadn’t seen Yao Jiamu like this before though?

There were also the remaining members of the gang, who, before he left, were wearing brave and righteous expressions on their faces. They were now all crowded behind Gu Xiqiao, a flushed, excited expression on each of their faces too.

Boss Bai: He had only stepped out for a few minutes, why did it felt like he had left for a century instead?

Gu Xiqiao raised her head at this time, and her face glowed under the light, her slender, jadelike hands turning the laptop around for him to see.

On the screen, a scene from the west of the Imperial Capital was playing.

Boss Bai was familiar with the lands of the Qingyun gang, so he recognized the place at a glance. His eyes widened when he managed to understand what was going on. What was he seeing? He was watching the members of the Qingyun gang being arrested one by one.

Gu Xiqiao tapped her fingers a few times on the keyboard, giving Boss Bai a close up of the faces of Li Xiang, Hua Jingya, and Bai Jianbin.

The cigarette in his hand fell to the ground, and Boss Bai could only stare at Gu Xiqiao in disbelief and a jaw-slacked expression on his face.

The Qingyun gang had a few of their leading figures arrested in one night, and among them included Li Xiang. This incident caused a stir in the Imperial Capital. On this night, the people on the streets had been gloating and rejoicing in the Bai gang’s misfortune, but the end was such an unexpected dramatic twist instead!

The people on the streets were also in a state of complete disbelief.

Up till the next day, when the People’s Tribunal released the evidence of the Qingyun gang’s case file. The smuggling and trafficking of drugs were made public and transparent, showing all the people the concrete evidence. These policemen had lost countless comrades in order to combat these crimes, and their joy had been indescribable when they received the tip off, and that their continuous fight had finally borne fruit. To prevent any leakage before the raid, they had specifically reported straight to the higher ups, who immediately arranged for the team of special ops.

The news of Li Xiang’s sentence to death by shooting quickly spread. Countless netizens applauded the news, and the family members of those policemen who had lost their lives for the anti-drug cause were crying as they watched justice finally getting served for their lost loved ones.

This incident caused waves for a while.

This time, it didn’t just uncover and destroy a boss of a big gang, but also some government officials that had been colluding with them.

There was once again, another reshuffling of power in the political ranks.

Regular people who were watching the news unfold were all excited, but the people down on the streets were terrified. The updates came on after another, the next one always more terrifying and frightening than the previous. Who was Li Xiang? He was the leader of the Qingyun gang. Even a person like him was going to be shot to death.

On the other hand, the Bai gang who had been on the verge of dissolving were still alive and well. Not only were they well, but they were also busy recruiting new people recently!

Disregarding the fact that they were recruiting new people, they were obviously an underworld gang, but the police department had even issued them a pennant!

What did this mean? The people around them really couldn’t understand the reason for this.

The Qingyun gang had set up such an elaborate plot, and the Bai gang had walked more than half of it before suddenly turning the entire thing on them. Being able to do so, it was a testament of how incredible the Bai gang was. They were usually operating silently in the shadows, it was unexpected that when they made a move, it would cause an entire reshuffling of the underworld.

Those smaller gangs who had hurriedly cut ties when they heard that the Bai gang was going to be destroyed were now regretful of their hasty decisions. Right now, the Qingyun gang was gone, and the Bai gang was the only big gang standing tall and strong. The smartest decision would have been to stand by the Bai gang. Moreover, the police department had even issued a pennant to them! Entering the Bai gang was an extra gold medal to avoid death right now.

The bald man had finally gotten a chance to see Boss Bai, and he squeezed himself in immediately, a face full of smiles as he did. However, the smile slid off his face the very next second.

The Bai gang had said that they were only accepting two kinds of people for this recruitment, people who had remained neutral, and newcomers.

Seeing the announcement criterias, the smaller gangs on the streets began to panic, because most of them were clearly attached to the Qingyun gang just a few days ago. They had thought that they wouldn’t be rejected if they were to join the Bai gang once again, because the Bai gang lacked talented people right now after all, who would have expected that they didn’t want any of them at all!

“You don’t have the manpower nor the resources right now, and the police also have their eyes on you, let’s just see how you’ll stand back up!” The bald man spat out fiercely.

And just a day later, they were completely blown away. The Bai gang who had been ransacked by the Qingyun gang, not having any finances suddenly pulled it out from thin air, refurbishing the entire base of the Bai gang. And for those people who had stood by the Bai gang, and even the newcomers they had recruited, every one of them had a sum of money given to them each month. Not only that, they even had a community to live in together, and everyone had their own place to live.

Although it was just an ordinary community, every person had a unit. Where did the Bai gang get so much money in such a short period of time?!

With such good benefits, not a single person in the gang was jealous of each other. The only ones who were envious, were the people who the Bai gang didn’t want to accept back into their folds!

If you were to ask the bald man now whether or not he regretted his decision, he would definitely cry and beat you to death!

“Yao Jiamu, did you come to get me out of here? Did Boss Bai ask you to rescue me?” In a holding cell in the Imperial Capital, Bai Jianbin tried to rush over at seeing the familiar figure, but was held down by the policemen beside him, preventing him from moving.

He had just joined the Qingyun gang, and hadn’t even participated in anything related to them, but he had been sentenced to a twenty-year prison sentence due to his involvement with them.

Twenty years, when he came out his life was basically over! Not the mention, prison was a cannibalistic place, he wouldn’t be able to last in this place for a second!

He looked at Yao Jiamu, his eyes gleaming with hope. Although they were all in prison, the outside happenings were just too big to not reach them. Even the guards in the cells were talking about it, that they had caught a big worm this time, and they were all excited about this news. After hearing all that was happening, Bai Jianbin finally understood one thing.

The destruction of the Qingyun gang was undeniably related to the Bai gang.

Yao Jiamu looked back at Bai Jianbin, shaking his head. “It’s not Boss Bai who instructed me to come, but I wanted to see this useless hide of a wolf that you are.”

He savored the desperate look on Bai Jianbin’s face for a moment before continuing, “Boss Bai had always treated you as his own child. You said that he didn’t allow you to partake in the medicinal baths? That’s because the baths were stimulants, and you will get addicted if you soak in it once. Haven’t you felt unusual fatigue in your body these past few days? Secondly, you said that he didn’t allow you to handle the nightclub matters. That’s because he wanted you to start from the bottom, climbing up step by step, so that no one would be able to question your capabilities. Haven’t you noticed that there is no one in the gang who would doubt me, but there are some who would doubt you? Unexpectedly, Boss Bai has wasted so much effort, and in the end you would still abandon the Bai gang…”

Following his statements, Bai Jianbin’s mind was hurling into a panic. Yes, it was true that he had felt unusually tired the past few days, and he had thought it was due to some sickness that he was exposed to while he was in prison, but he didn’t expect it to be because of the medicinal bath!

And Boss Bai, he didn’t know that Boss Bai would treat him this way. If… If he hadn’t left the Bai gang…

Bai Jianbin felt his vision darkened temporarily, pain bursting out from his heart as the tears streamed down his face. He was taken back to his cell by the policemen while in a desperate state, when he saw Hua Jingya being dragged out. A sudden surge of hatred and resentment flooded him suddenly, and Bai Jianbin didn’t know where the strength came from as he broke free from the policemen’s restraint and he grabbed Hua Jingya by the neck. “It’s all because of you b*tch!”

Hua Jingya was choked halfway to her death, and the handcuffs on Bai Jianbin’s hands also scratched her face harshly. She touched the blood on her face, screaming in horror.

“Beauty Qiao, Boss Bai is outside.”

Gu Xiqiao was sitting in the nightclub, watching the Bai gang base getting rebuilt as the system spirit floated by her side, reminding her, “Also, if you don’t go back soon, Big Jiang will probably tear this place down.”

“I know, don’t worry so much.” Gu Xiqiao was writing something quickly with a pen in hand.

Boss Bai stood outside the entrance, and before he could knock on the door, it opened by itself, letting him see Gu Xiqiao at the table. But how did the door open by itself? Before Boss Bai could think about it more, he saw Gu Xiqiao beckoning to him.

“Get someone to buy the medicine from this prescription and boil it in a pot. The medicinal bath has harmed a lot of people, give it to those who have soaked in the bath, whether or not they belong to the Bai gang.” Gu Xiqiao handed him a piece of paper, before handing him an ancient book. “Strengthening the body isn’t done in a day, and taking shortcuts is definitely not the way to go about it. Give this book to Xiao Mutou when he comes back, and he will know what to do. I will take my leave first.”

Boss Bai didn’t even have the time to say anything before Gu Xiqiao left in a hurry. As soon as he looked down, he saw his hands holding the tattered book in his hands, and suddenly recalled Yao Jiamu’s subordinates, how each of them seemed to have the strength of ten men.

He pinched his hand, trying to assure himself that this wasn’t a dream.

He had thought that this would be the end of his life, and didn’t expect that they would be able to launch a counterattack like this. Just as Miss Gu had said, they would be able to spread across the globe. He hadn’t dared to think of it before, but it didn’t seem too impossible now, did it? Walking to the entrance, he looked up towards the sky. The sun was not too bright, but it was equally dazzling in his eyes. It was a beautiful day.

***

“It’s Big Jiang! I’m leaving!” The system spirit saw the black car approaching, and vanished back into the void space instantly.

Gu Xiqiao lifted her head, seeing the car slowly come to a stop in front of her. The door opened slowly, and a handsome figure stepped out.
