Chapter 420 Li Chu Chumen’s Chu
The next day, Chumen held an internal meeting.
The newcomers who have just joined include Bald Liu and Mr. Zhao Siye.
Because Chaotianque and Li Chu were familiar with each other, Duan Ju's request was quickly approved. Although Bald Liu didn't know what happened, the news he got from his superiors was to join Chumen and fully support Li Chu.
This order coincided with his desire to survive and was naturally implemented vigorously.
Now in Li Chu's field of vision, a boiled egg with a flattering smile would appear from time to time.
Mr. Zhao Si was not so at ease.
The little king Teng Yang practiced hard in seclusion for twenty years, and finally developed a triple fighting spirit. He thought he could amaze the world, but who knew that he would fail in his first battle.
He even specially invited all the martial artists in the entire Jixiangfu City to watch, wanting to spread the result of this battle. Now, the whole world will know that a new little king of Tianwang Mountain was crushed in the north.
But at least Li Chu showed mercy.
When the sword passed over his head, Teng Yang felt that if the sword was directed downward, he would have no chance of survival. The strong physique that he had cultivated through decades of hard work could not bring him any sense of security.
Under multiple blows, he simply flew away from the embarrassing scene.
Master Zhao Si, who brought his entire gang, young and old, and even wanted his men to bring their families to cheer him on, was suddenly left behind and became an orphan all of a sudden.
When Li Chu reached the top of the mountain and asked Mr. Zhao Si again whether he wanted to join Truman, Mr. Zhao Si didn't think he had any second option.
A gangster tycoon suddenly felt like...
Weak, pitiful and helpless.
As a man of steel, Mr. Zhao Si thought to himself, if it weren't for the hundreds of brothers behind me, I would never agree to this kid.
Then he nodded repeatedly: "It's an honor! I have admired the Seventh Young Master for a long time! Hehe!"
So the two of them were also present at the Truman Conference the next day.
Sitting in front of them was Truman veteran Uncle Kun, who had joined for three whole days and made great contributions. Now he was sitting in the front row, looking proud and showing off.
In front of them are the old members who were the founding fathers of the gang, including Nan Batian who joined for four days and Dongxing Five Tigers who joined for five days.
Especially the Dongxing Five Tigers headed by Brother Crow. They probably would never have thought in their lifetime that they would have the opportunity to be in the same room with some of the top bosses in the city... and sit in the first two rows.
"My fellow disciples." Li Chu stood in front and said loudly: "Today we gather together to contribute to the revitalization of the Chu Sect. Thank you very much for joining us."
Everyone stood up and returned the greeting.
"Nowadays, although Truman's development momentum is still good, there are still several more pressing issues facing us." Li Chu continued.
"The first is that although we have become the largest gang in the city, the Han Palace will not sit idly by." Li Chu looked around at everyone: "Does anyone have any suggestions on how to negotiate with the Han Palace? Unless it is necessary, I do not want to use violence against the Han King."
“…”
Everyone was silent for a moment.
There is absolutely no need to add the last sentence.
What do you mean, if necessary, do you still dare to violently eliminate King Han? We are in a gang, not a rebel.
In this regard, Li Chu did not have much respect for the royal family. After all, it was not the first time. It can be said that he was the one who contributed to the downfall of Jiangnan Prince Ji Baxiao.
But you can't just kill a prince for fun if there is no need.
And no money.
After a short silence, Uncle Kun stood up, looked around, cleared his throat and smiled, "I do have an opinion. As a Truman elder, I know the situation of Truman. Now, the east, south, west and north are all in our hands. It can be said that the Seventh Young Master is the underground emperor of the city. And this city is our Truman world."
"but……"
"This situation is exactly what the Han Palace is extremely afraid of. If we want to cooperate with the Han Palace, we have two choices."
"First, we should be small. The best way is for us to take the initiative to submit to the Cold Palace, hand over the power, let them drive us, and show that we are willing to be the pawns of the Northern Cold King. Only then will they be completely relieved."
"But I'm sure the Seventh Young Master won't be able to accept this kind of cooperation."
Uncle Kun glanced at Li Chu, and Li Chu nodded.
It was impossible for him to serve under King Han. Moreover, King Han had seen Wang Longqi before, so if he had any impression of him, he would be exposed.
"If you don't want to completely surrender, but want to be on equal terms, then you need to have the ability to be on equal terms. And this ability lies in the Seventh Young Master himself. Even the King of Cold has to look squarely at a master of this level."
“So our second option right now is to expand.”
"That is, publicize and exaggerate our power. We must publicize the fact that the Seventh Young Master defeated the Little Heavenly King of Tianwang Mountain last night. And we must emphasize that he was defeated with one sword and his life was saved."
"Let King Han respect us, then we can live in peace."
"As for the option of not cooperating with the Cold Prince's Mansion... I don't recommend it. It's unwise to oppose the court. But if the Seventh Young Master has enough confidence that no one will know about it, he can just kill the Northern Cold Prince. As far as I know, the current Cold Prince has not yet determined his successor. At least for a few years, no one will bother us. This move is the most convenient..."
"Kun...Ah Kun, forget about this plan." Bald Liu quickly waved his hand, "Let's not make a big deal out of this."
He represented the Chaotianque faction, and although he was at odds with King Han, he was only here to monitor King Han's mansion. If King Han was killed directly, things would be very serious.
The most terrifying thing was that he clearly saw that when Uncle Kun said "most convenient" just now, Wang Qi's eyes lit up.
Obviously, he is moved.
Fourth Master Zhao also said weakly: "The little king lost, so is he still necessary to whip his corpse repeatedly…"
"It is still necessary." Li Chu said directly: "I think this proposal is good. If we can improve the strength of our Chu Clan to the same level as the Hanwang Mansion, we will naturally be respected."
"Then let's set the first five-day plan..."
…
After Truman's first five-day plan was released, the temporary division of power in the city remained unchanged. East City still belonged to Bald Liu, West City still belonged to Uncle Kun, North City still belonged to Fourth Master Zhao, and South City still belonged to Nan Batian. The Five Tigers of Dongxing were stationed at the Truman headquarters as messengers, responsible for communicating with all parties.
As for money, food and manpower, they do not need to be handed over and are still managed by the parties themselves.
In short, after a series of orders were issued, the bosses suddenly felt that they had lost nothing.
It seems... everything is still the same as before, except that there is a unified boss in name only.
But what is the difference between a boss who doesn't ask for anything from you but will jump out to protect you when something happens and a living Buddha? So what is Wang Qi doing with all his effort?
Is it just for a false reputation?
Li Chu really didn't care about this. After all, it only took a few days to create this Truman, and it might be disbanded after a while.
Just when he was about to find Liu Fufeng to find out more, two unexpected guests came to his door.
The two wore hats to cover their faces, dressed like martial artists, and only one could be seen as tall and the other short. They both had long auras and seemed to be masters.
They were introduced by Madam Xie and brought here by Uncle Kun. They were said to be of important background, so Li Chu received them very seriously.
"Please take a seat, both of you." Li Chu raised his hand.
"Thank you very much."
After the two men sat down and took off their hats, they saw that the one on the left had thin cheeks and a fierce look, while the one on the right had small eyes and a red nose.
These two people were Cao Pan and He Tu from Duanbei Mountain, and they actually came directly to Truman’s headquarters.
"Brother Wang, you have built such a great foundation in the city in just a few days. You are truly a young hero." Cao Pan began by complimenting him.
"I dare not, it was just luck." Li Chu replied.
"It can be seen that Brother Wang is a very ambitious person." Cao Pan said again.
"I don't have any big ambitions, but I want to make a name for myself in Jixiang Prefecture." Li Chu said again.
"Oh, how can a small Jixiang Mansion hold a real hero?" Cao Pan leaned closer and said, "Brother Wang... don't you want to do something truly great?"
"A big achievement?" Li Chu wondered: "How big is it?"
"For example... the entire Heluo Dynasty is as big as that." He Tu said in a bewitching voice.
"Oh?" Li Chu was a little surprised when he heard them say this, "Where are you two from?"
"Before you ask us, we would like to ask Brother Wang first..." Cao Pan said, "Where did you come from? Why did you suddenly appear in the martial arts world when there is no legend about you, and your cultivation is so terrifying?"
"I..." Li Chu hesitated for a moment and replied, "I am not from any sect or school. My master is a wandering Qigong practitioner. I have been practicing in seclusion in the south and just came out this year."
This statement was inspired by the little Tengyang king. He appeared out of thin air and just said he was in seclusion.
"Hmm..." Pan Cao nodded, thinking it made sense.
For such a young cultivator to have such a high level of cultivation, even if he was a reincarnated earthly immortal, it would be a bit too fast. Unless he had been in seclusion and had been concentrating on cultivation, he could have achieved such an accomplishment.
"I have guessed a little bit. With such a high level of Taoism, if Brother Wang was born in an immortal sect or a powerful force, he would definitely be the core of key training. Why would he come to Jixiang Mansion alone to start a business? Haha."
Cao Pan smiled and said, "As for where we came from..."
He leaned forward again and lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Wang, have you heard of Broken Monument Mountain?"
Huh? Li Chu was puzzled.
No wonder he spoke so arrogantly before, it turns out he is a traitor.
The master once said that if one encounters difficulties in the north, he can go to Duanbei Mountain to find his good brothers, so Li Chu has a good impression of Duanbei Mountain itself.
So he nodded and said, "I heard that there are many heroes in the mountain."
"Since brother said so..." Cao Pan did not hesitate and asked directly: "Are you interested in joining Broken Monument Mountain?"
"With your cultivation level, if you go up the mountain, you will most likely be directly appointed as a commander. The commanders of my Broken Monument Mountain are all well-known figures in the martial arts world, and they will definitely become famous overnight."
He was not bragging when he said this, Li Chu also believed it.
With one more commander in Broken Monument Mountain, there will be an extra high bounty on the walls of every major city in the world, and everyone in the entire Heluo Dynasty will see it.
Isn't this what it means to become famous overnight?
"To be honest, I have a good impression of Broken Stele Mountain, but I still have some things to do..." Li Chu thought about it and did not say that he was preparing to deal with the Golden Bodhisattva.
After all, this is a secret matter, and the more people know about it, the greater the risk. The reason why I told the people in Chaotianque the other day was because they belonged to the imperial court, and it was understandable to notify them in case of a direct conflict.
There is no need to provide any support for these two heroes. After all, they are traitors, and getting too deeply involved with them may not be a good thing.
But he didn't refuse coldly.
"If you two need any help from me, please let me know. We will be happy to help as much as we can." Li Chu said, "We can maintain a cooperative relationship."
"cooperate……"
Cao Pan smiled.
"That's not a bad idea. If Brother Wang still has concerns, you can just observe more. Anyway, my Duanbei Mountain welcomes heroes from all over the world and does not refuse anyone. No matter when you want to go up the mountain, the door is open to you." He said enthusiastically.
He Tu said, "There is something that needs Truman's help right now."
The two of them had asked Madam Xie for help yesterday, but there was no news so far. This new big boss in the city has more power, so if they ask him for help, it might be more efficient.
"You can talk as you like." Li Chu said.
So He Tu said, "We are going down the mountain to deal with someone."
"This man is a great enemy of our Broken Monument Mountain. He has previously sabotaged our mission and brutally killed our secret agents. The boss has issued a strict order that he must be eradicated regardless of manpower."
"But after this person entered Jixiang City, he seemed to have disappeared, and we couldn't find him no matter how hard we tried." Cao Pan continued, "It would be great if your men could help us look for him, Brother Wang."
"Just looking for someone?" Li Chu said, "That's not difficult."
"This person has a very high level of cultivation. If we find him, I'm afraid the other masters on the mountain will have to come down and surround and kill him together." Cao Pan said.
"I see." Li Chu nodded.
He was a little curious in his heart. Who was this great enemy that Broken Monument Mountain had to take so seriously? "Who is this person?" he asked.
"This man is a young Taoist priest from the south of the Yangtze River. He is not very old, but his cultivation is very high." He Tu said.
"Hmm?" Li Chu blinked.
"Moreover, this man is extremely handsome. It is said that he is the most handsome man in the world. Wherever he goes, he is very eye-catching." Cao Pan said.
"Huh?" Li Chu frowned subtly.
He couldn't help but ask: "So this person you are talking about...what is his name?"
"Li Chu."
He Tu replied, and suddenly smiled again.
"Truman's Chu."
