My master's wife fed me a pill, a secret healing medicine from their Five Poisons Sect.
The medicine is good, but it's basically useless for my current injuries. My physical strength is beyond what my master's wife could imagine.
Being struck by an energy so powerful it was almost a full-force attack from a sixth-realm god, I would have been reduced to ashes long ago if I hadn't possessed so many skills.
It looks like just a regular burn now, and it's already been treated by all the wound-healing staff under my command.
They've tried every treatment imaginable, but he's still bedridden; the so-called secret medicine is useless.
But he couldn't say it outright; he had to pretend to be very useful. He managed to coax and deceive his master and mistress into going back home.
Only Sister Wang was left, refusing to go back no matter what. I had some things I needed to do behind people's backs.
But looking into Sister Wang's gentle yet firm eyes, I just couldn't bring myself to kick her out.
In the end, we had no choice but to compromise and let her stay. If anything really happens, we'll let her get some sleep.
Then I asked Sister Wang to get me a phone, and I made a call to my men who were far away in Heishan Prefecture.
I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time for them. Now that things have settled down at the Zuo family's place, it's time to arrange for them to come back.
He can't just keep wandering around outside without coming home, so I called Ermin directly.
It rang a few times before being answered, because it was Sister Wang's phone.
I spoke first: "Brother Ermin, how are you guys doing over there? Is there any problem?"
Upon hearing that it was me, Ermin quickly replied, "Things are fine here, there aren't any major problems. The entire underground casino has been operating smoothly lately."
"With Wenger and the others gone, there's no one to keep things in check anymore, so they don't have the same authority in their words and actions."
Without responding, I continued, "Things in Fengtian Prefecture are basically over. The Zuo family brought this upon themselves, wiping out the entire clan."
"Look, see who wants to come back, who wants to stay in Black Mountain Prefecture and watch the casino. If you don't have a few, discuss it yourselves and give me a heads-up."
He paused for a moment, then asked, "Is the road in Black Mountain Prefecture still safe? Has anything major happened?"
Ermin thought for a moment and replied, "The road isn't very safe. Black Mountain Prefecture has been in chaos lately."
Several forces have joined together to besiege the Gu sisters at the hot spring palace, and it's rumored that an even larger force is involved behind the scenes.
We weren't affected because of Hao Ge, but we were still attacked a few times. In the end, Hao Ge always stepped in and cleared things up.
I frowned when I heard this on the phone, but I didn't say anything. In the end, I just asked Brother Ermin.
He said, "How's Crazy Donkey and the others' gun practice going? Are they ready to fight?"
Ermin's pupils contracted when he heard what I said, and then he said, "That's enough. They've recruited a few more locals with weapons and firearms recently."
"We've assembled an 'Eighteen Arhats' group, and the Xingbang brothers are all practicing their shooting like crazy. If something happens again, it definitely won't be like last time."
I listened in silence for a moment, and from Ermin's tone, I could tell he was somewhat excited and wanted to give it a try.
Judging from what I've seen, he must have been really badly hurt lately. It's not as small as he makes it out to be. Well, now that things are fine here, it's okay to make some changes over there.
He immediately instructed Ermin, "Tell Crazy Donkey and his gang to take action. Beat up all the guys who raided our territory a while ago. I'll call Hao first."
Ask him to take a look. I'll send someone over right away, and you can pick them up then.
Ermin's tone was clearly excited, and he immediately replied, "Yes, young master, I'll arrange it right away."
