Zhou Xiaotian stormed off.
The remaining people looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Hmph! I think Brother Tian is right. If a person has no morals, what kind of person do they deserve to be?"
At this moment, Zhu Tianwang slowly stood up, glanced at the traitors, and said, "Don't you all think about what you were before you joined Brother Tian?"
Zhu Tianwang pointed at a big shot and said, "Take you, Lao Wang, for example. Before, your Wang family was suppressed by the Martial Alliance, and you couldn't even do business anymore. If you hadn't followed Brother Tian, would you be where you are today? So many people here have suffered under the Martial Alliance for a long time. It was only because Mr. Lin defeated the Martial Alliance that we are where we are today! Now you want to betray Mr. Lin and Brother Tian. Have you lost your conscience?"
"I, Zhu Tianwang, disdain to associate with you! Bah!"
After finishing his tirade, Zhu Tianwang walked outside with his hands behind his back.
Other bosses also turned their disdain to it and followed suit.
The rest of the people blushed and looked extremely unpleasant.
"What the hell is there to be so arrogant about?"
"Exactly, they've developed a sense of superiority from being treated like dogs?"
"A wise bird chooses a good tree to perch on; who isn't doing it for their own benefit?"
"Exactly, what right do they have to criticize us?"
Old Wang and several other bosses immediately began to curse angrily.
Some people also expressed concern at this moment.
"That Mr. Lin is no ordinary person. He now holds absolute power in Guanzhong. If you offend Brother Tian today, you'll likely face the consequences later!"
"Hey, Old Chen, what are you afraid of!"
At this moment, Old Wang suddenly said with great enthusiasm, "Let me tell you, this guy surnamed Lin won't be arrogant for long! You have no idea what's going on in the martial arts world. That Chief Li even defeated the famous Elder Huaihai. His true strength should be in the top ten of the Wind and Cloud Ranking. No matter how powerful this guy surnamed Lin is, he's just a young upstart. He will never be a match for Chief Li!"
"This time, Chief Li will definitely win the championship and become the leader of the martial arts alliance. At that time, everything that the martial arts alliance has lost will be taken back. Zhou Xiaotian will face reckoning sooner or later!"
Hearing him say this, everyone was deeply moved.
They had all heard of the popularity rankings; those in the top ten were practically god-like figures!
For example, Ip Man and Huo Yuanjia were both famous heroes when they were alive!
As for that guy surnamed Lin, his most impressive achievement was simply defeating Long Tianqi.
Long Tianqi was ranked far below the top few dozen on the popularity list, a stark contrast to Li Qingcang today.
Upon hearing this news, their confidence soared!
Just then, someone dropped another bombshell: "Hey! Gentlemen, I have another piece of news for you all. My young master has reached ten miles outside the city. Guess who he met?"
"Haha, it's Lord Xu!"
"What is the status of the Xu family? Do you think Lord Xu is a fool? If he didn't have absolute confidence in Chief Li, would he have personally come out of the city to welcome him?"
Everyone looked surprised.
Xu Chengyi, Marquis of Guanzhong, was once the number one figure in Guanzhong City.
Moreover, everyone knows that this old fox doesn't act without a sure thing, and he rarely shows his face. He's incredibly cunning and calculating.
This time, he actually came out in person, which inadvertently raised Li Qingcang's status even further!
Now, even the families that were initially hesitant were immediately tempted.
"Quickly! Prepare the car, I want to personally go outside the city to welcome Chief Li!"
"The sun hasn't set yet, it's not too late to leave!"
"By the way, go to the bank and withdraw twenty million. This time I want to formally become the Grand Master's disciple in person!"
Humans have a tendency to blindly follow others; as the saying goes, "one call and a hundred responses."
Incited by a few opportunists, some people changed their tune and prepared to join Li Qingcang's side.
And so, a spectacular scene unfolded in Guanzhong at dusk.
A fleet of luxury cars headed out of the city, only to be caught in the evening rush hour, bringing traffic to a standstill.
Meanwhile, ten miles outside the city.
A red carpet was laid out, firecrackers were set off, and some families even erected rainbow arches.
The sign read, "The [Name of Family/Group] warmly welcomes the triumphant return of Chief Li!"
There were even fireworks going off nearby; this guy was making quite a spectacle of it.
As dusk fell, crowds thronged the area.
Everyone was eagerly awaiting the triumphant return of Chief Li.
Just as the last rays of sunlight were about to fade away.
Suddenly, a high-pitched tiger roar echoed from the horizon!
Awoo!
A majestic tiger king leaped into everyone's view.
On the massive tiger's body sat a sprightly old man, his eyes as bright and sharp as the moon!
"They're here!"
"They actually came riding a tiger!"
"My God! Is this a human or a god??"
Everyone was stunned by this spectacular scene.
The tiger is the king of beasts.
Even tigers in zoos can never be truly tamed.
Yet someone managed to tame a tiger as a mount with their bare hands; what else could they be but a god?
At this moment, everyone looked on with reverence, trembling with excitement.
Xu Chengyi, who was at the head of the crowd, was so moved that tears streamed down his face.
Awesome!
That's awesome!
Seeing Li Qingcang's stance, he knew he had made the right bet this time!
This time, Lin Yu is definitely doomed!
Amidst the watchful eyes of the crowd, Li Qingcang rode a tiger and slowly approached.
His sharp gaze swept over everyone present.
Do you all still recognize me?
The sound wasn't loud, but it pierced everyone's hearts.
