Chapter 1366 - 1365: Consolidation and Integration

Chapter 1366: Chapter 1365: Consolidation and Integration

Second Uncle, no need to waste words on them anymore, let’s just settle this today." Jiang Qing’Er spoke calmly from the side. With Jiang Cheng by her side, she felt an unprecedented sense of security—and that gave her unprecedented boldness.

"I’ll give you all one chance right now. Whoever’s willing to turn their back on the darkness and come into the light, I’ll give you that chance. Step aside. Otherwise, you all stay here forever!" A flicker of lightning flashed faintly through Jiang Cheng’s eyes, and his body began to emit a sizzling electric sound. Xu Jianwu saw this and was shocked to the core!

"Superpower User!" Someone more experienced and well-informed shouted out.

To ordinary people, a Superpower User is basically an unbeatable existence. Most people don’t even know Superpower Users exist.

"You’re actually a Superpower User!" Xu Jianwu stared at Jiang Cheng in disbelief. It almost made him give up resisting. With a Superpower User here, no matter what he did today, he had zero hope of winning.

Jiang Wei and Jiang Qing’Er were also stunned. Jiang Cheng had never mentioned that he was a Superpower User. With a power like that, why bother going through all this trouble? He could’ve just grabbed Xu Jianwu and killed him outright.

After seeing Jiang Cheng reveal his identity as a Superpower User, Xu Jianwu started desperately searching for an escape route in his head. But the moment he saw the look in Jiang Wei and Jiang Qing’Er’s eyes, he knew there was no way he was walking away from this alive today.

"Sigh—" A long sigh escaped Xu Jianwu’s mouth. Then he pulled out a handgun from his body and raised it.

Jiang Cheng instinctively stepped in front of Qing’Er. But Xu Jianwu’s target wasn’t anyone on their side—it was himself. He knew that even if it came to a fight, he had no chance. Dead either way, so better to die clean and fast.

Jiang Qing’Er saw through Xu Jianwu’s intent. She was a kind woman; how could she just watch a living, breathing person die right in front of her? "No!" Jiang Qing’Er shouted. But Xu Jianwu’s will to die was already set—how could a single shout from Jiang Qing’Er call him back?

Bang! A gunshot rang out, and a corpse appeared right in front of Jiang Qing’Er just like that. She was stunned on the spot. Even though she was the daughter of a gang boss, this was the first time in her life she’d seen a dead body with her own eyes—and one who had killed himself right in front of her. Jiang Qing’Er’s heart felt like it was collapsing.

She suddenly started to doubt whether her decision had been right. If she hadn’t come back, would this man still be alive? The more she thought about it, the worse she felt. Suddenly her vision went black, and she fainted. Luckily Jiang Cheng reacted fast and caught Jiang Qing’Er in his arms. "Qing’Er! Qing’Er, wake up! Qing’Er!" Jiang Cheng held her, trying to call her back.

"Captain, let me." At this moment, Yang Shu spoke up.

Right—how had he forgotten about him? He was the team’s medic, a Water-type Superpower User, the best at saving people.

Yang Shu pressed his palm to Jiang Qing’Er’s forehead and closed his eyes. Vaguely, Jiang Cheng saw streams of blue energy flowing from Counting Sheep’s body into Jiang Qing’Er.

After a while, Counting Sheep withdrew his hand.

"Captain, don’t worry, she’s fine. She just took a bit of a shock. A few days of rest and she’ll be okay." Counting Sheep said.

Jiang Cheng let out a silent breath of relief, picked Jiang Qing’Er up in his arms, carried her to the car, and took her home. Things here were basically wrapped up anyway; he could leave the cleanup to Jiang Wei. With this little mess, Jiang Wei would have no problem handling it.

The remaining people on the scene, including Da Sha and the others, saw Jiang Cheng leave and quickly dispersed as well. No point staying here—there wasn’t even food.

Jiang Wei, meanwhile, was busy making calls, getting people together for a meeting. For Qing Bang, it was time to restore its former strength.

The next day, in the top-floor conference room of Qing Bang Headquarters.

Jiang Qing’Er sat in the main seat. On her left sat Jiang Wei, on her right sat Jiang Cheng. Lined up below them were more than twenty big and small Qing Bang leaders.

"Before we start the meeting, I’m going to announce something." Seeing that almost everyone had arrived, Jiang Qing’Er spoke.

Everyone immediately sharpened their focus, giving it full attention.

"Starting today, Jiang Cheng will be our Qing Bang Deputy Gang Leader. He has the authority to inquire into all matters in the gang, big and small. Did everyone understand?" Jiang Qing’Er finished and swept her gaze over each of the leaders’ faces one by one.

Who would dare have an opinion!

What happened yesterday had already spread through Qing Bang overnight. Everyone knew this Jiang Cheng was a Superpower User! Even Xu Jianwu had been forced to death by him—who’d dare object?

Jiang Cheng stood up, nodded to everyone present, and gave a slight bow. Becoming Qing Bang Deputy Gang Leader was also His (and Zhao’s) plan; if he was going to operate in Wu City’s underworld, it would be much easier to work with an official title.

"If there are no objections, then it’s settled. We’ll start today’s agenda. There are only two items for this meeting. First, we restructure Qing Bang’s organization. Second, we set our strategy for dealing with Iron Fist Gang and Fierce Tiger Gang." As soon as Jiang Qing’Er’s words fell, everyone’s expressions in the conference room changed.

The first item wasn’t a big deal. Qing Bang had been split for so long that re-integration was necessary. But the second point was a bit...

Qing Bang had been fractured for a long time, and its strength was heavily depleted. Starting a war with Iron Fist and Fierce Tiger now didn’t seem like the best timing.

But judging from the Gang Leader’s expression, she wasn’t joking. And Jiang Qing’Er clearly wasn’t asking for their opinions; she was just informing them.

This meeting dragged on for a full three hours. For Jiang Cheng, those three hours were pure torture. He found excuses several times to step outside for air. Qing’Er really had it rough, Jiang Cheng thought.

And when this meeting ended, a completely new Qing Bang was about to be born.

Now, Qing Bang was divided into one Headquarters and four Halls: Black Tortoise Hall, Vermilion Bird Hall, Cyan Dragon Hall, and White Tiger Hall. The halls were placed in the north, south, east, and west of Wu City respectively, with Headquarters guarding the Federation. Each hall would have its own Special Action Team, responsible respectively for internal oversight, intelligence gathering, improving the gang’s combat power, and making money.

Each hall would have a Hall Master and a Deputy Hall Master. The Special Action Teams were directly under the command of the Gang Leader and Deputy Gang Leader. After restructuring, except for Cyan Dragon Hall, each hall could have at most three hundred members—only elites, none of those good-for-nothing street punks.

Cyan Dragon Hall’s focus in combat power enhancement would be on robot combat. After all, when it came to fighting capability, robots were the cutting-edge force.

Currently, the northern and western parts of Wu City were occupied by Iron Fist Gang and Fierce Tiger Gang respectively. Qing Bang’s territory was in the south. The east side of Wu City was jointly occupied by all three gangs, evenly matched, but lately Qing Bang’s influence in the east had shrunk significantly.

Now, Iron Fist Gang and Fierce Tiger Gang in the north and west had already received word of Qing Bang’s reorganization, and it shocked them greatly. In a villa at that moment, a burly man was sitting on the sofa, looking at the information in his hand with a cold smile.
