"Hahaha, that's right, what's wrong with you, Fatty Wang? Why haven't you brought it up yet?!"

"Fatty Wang, hurry up!! Don't keep the brothers waiting!!"

"Fatty Wang, it's rare for you to treat me to such a grand meal. I even brought a Romanée de France from the last century just for you, so don't spoil the fun!!"

"Hahaha, good wine and good meat, life is short! Third Brother, where did you get this Romanée-Connie?"

"Where else could it be? I just caught a big fish recently, hahaha."

........

These notorious swindlers, each with a cigar dangling from their lips, surrounded by beautiful women, chatted and laughed, urging Wang Dagang to hurry up and serve the food.

Encouraged by the crowd, Wang Dagang, seated at the head of the table, looked at everyone and spoke:

"Brothers and sisters, it's not that I, Da Gang, am heartless. Look, that Old Nine still hasn't come over..."

Hearing what Wang Dagang said, everyone turned their attention to the empty chair to the side.

"Oh yeah, isn't Lao Jiu usually the one who comes the most often? What's going on today?"

"Tsk, what else could it be? Old Jiu hooked a rich guy, his sales performance is more than all eight of us combined, so here he is..."

"There's nothing we can do, Old Nine won the MVP this year!!"

"Third Brother, why are you so focused on those performance figures? It's distorting the meaning of people's contributions..."

"That can't stop Lao Jiu's momentum. He just joined the organization, and his performance has already surpassed ours. Look, now he's always the last one to arrive at a gathering..."

The crowd chattered amongst themselves, many with a strong hint of sourness in their voices.

Hearing the unfriendly tone in everyone's voices,

The burly man sitting in the second-highest seat tapped on the table, signaling everyone to quiet down.

This person is none other than Liu Da, the founder of the Fierce Stronghold, a fugitive wanted by the Dragon Kingdom, a Diamond-level Grandmaster, and a half-step Transcendent.

In this small patch of land in the fierce village

Liu Da's prestige was still enough to keep things in check.

As he gently tapped the table, everyone fell silent.

Seeing this, Liu Da nodded in satisfaction, then said loudly:

"My fellow brothers and sisters, we all live a life of constant danger here. No one knows what dangers tomorrow will bring. Those of you sitting here are the pillars of our organization. We can't afford to lose a single one of you, don't you agree?"

Hearing Liu Da's speech, everyone nodded in agreement.

Liu Da squinted at everyone, especially at the third brother who had been the most sarcastic just now:

"So... here, unity is the most important thing. Only with unity can we continue to enjoy wealth and prosperity here... Therefore, I don't want to hear any voices within our team that might negatively impact team building. Do you all understand?"

After Liu Da finished speaking, he even solemnly put down the cup in his hand.

The cup lightly touched the table.

Although the scale was not large.

However, everyone present could feel a hidden force as the table shook towards them.

This kind of mysterious hidden force,

Everyone present was shocked.

Previously, although Liu Da could transmit internal force in this way, he could not do it in such a subtle way.

Such progress, when achieved by a grandmaster who is only halfway to becoming a transcendent being...

In an instant, the same thought flashed through everyone's minds.

"Boss...you broke through?!?!"

Hearing the gasps of surprise from the crowd, Liu Da nodded in satisfaction.

He twirled the prayer beads in his hand, clasped his hands together, and exuded an air of superiority.

"Amitabha Buddha, I recently received the master's true teachings and had some insights, so a breakthrough was a natural consequence..."

Hearing Liu Da's admission,

The crowd cheered.

"Our leader is mighty! Now that we have an extraordinary figure in charge of our stronghold, let's see who dares to provoke us!"

"That's right! With our boss, this great leader, around, our Fierce Stronghold will be a den of dragons and tigers from now on. Anyone who comes here will die! We brothers will also benefit from this!"

"Hahaha, following the boss means living the high life! Why should we keep a low profile? From now on, our 'Fierce Village' will not only swindle money, but we'll also steal whatever we want!!"

"Once our stronghold grows stronger, we'll simply establish our own sect and school! At that time, we'll be the founding ancestors, and those so-called Gara officials will have to kneel down and call us father!!"

......

Liu Da listened to the cheers of the crowd with a smile.

Although he looked like a high-ranking monk.

But they were happy to hear their shouts of war and violence.

It felt as if what I was holding in my hands wasn't prayer beads, but human heads...

Seeing that the flattery had been sufficient,

He waved his hand again, signaling everyone to be quiet:

"Everyone, quiet down, quiet down. I have already taken refuge under the Buddhist master. Do not shout for violence in front of me..."

Hearing Liu Da's words, the leaders all nodded obediently and stopped making a fuss.

Liu Da squinted, seemingly enjoying the feeling of having the power to command the wind and rain, and then he spoke again:

"Let's put my business aside for now. Today's main topic is the Fifth Brother. He's treating everyone to a once-in-a-century delicacy. We can't steal the spotlight from the protagonist, can we?"

Subsequently,

Liu Da turned to look at Wang Dagang:

"Da Gang, it's alright if Xiao Jiu can't come. Just bring the dishes up now, let me see just how amazing these rare delicacies that you, a gourmand, have taken a liking to really are..."
