Chapter 1442 - 646: Ghost Fire
Xiong Rudong immediately became excited, stepped back two steps, and knelt down to pay homage.
"Thank you, Mr. Xie Ji, for passing the message! Thank you, Mr. Xie Diao, for your gracious help!"
The situation in the city was overwhelming, and those with money and influence were fleeing outside the city for refuge.
He, Xiong Rudong, couldn’t understand the situation but knew to avoid harm and pursue benefits.
If you can’t provoke them, can’t you hide from them? It’s always right to go outside to avoid the limelight first.
The small old man Ji Xiangsong smiled.
Although Xiong Rudong was just a Hall Master of a small gang, looking across the entire Thunder City, he seemed insignificant.
But to most ordinary Martial Artists, Xiong Rudong was almost at the pinnacle of ordinary Martial Artists.
Humans have limits; Martial Artists with ordinary talent, without Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures or walking the path of a Demon Martial Artist Believer, will mostly peak at Tree Realm strength, and moving beyond that is essentially just maintaining that strength.
Those who can break through the Tree Realm and reach the Wood Realm are exceptionally gifted Martial Artists.
Of course, this includes the likes of Demon Martial Artist Believers, who are no longer limited by human bloodline talent, and their future potential and achievements are entirely unknown.
But still, with Ji Xiangsong’s status and strength, the people he can interact with include Xiong Rudong, a top-tier combat force.
Being able to connect with a Martial Artist of this strength and leave a favor is all benefit and no harm for the small old man Ji Xiangsong.
Even if Xiong Rudong is about to leave Thunder City, it doesn’t mean he won’t come back, and if Thunder City collapses, Ji Xiangsong himself might leave and turn to Xiong Rudong.
In short, he must extend this favor of kind water.
"Then I will let you out; arrange your time yourself, just don’t miss the hour."
Opening the door and letting him out, Xiong Rudong bowed again to express his gratitude.
This honest and straightforward temperament made the small old man Ji Xiangsong extremely satisfied, feeling he hadn’t helped the wrong person.
He thought for a moment and said.
"Brother Xiong, you’re determined to take your family out of the city; I won’t stop you, and the Rebel Army is even willing to help you leave Thunder City. Ultimately, whether you want to leave the city, think it through yourself."
Xiong Rudong immediately showed a few signs of confusion.
"Mr. Ji, please enlighten me."
The small old man Ji Xiangsong smiled and slowly said, "Thunder City may be chaotic now, but it has the Ten Major Families above, and various gang forces below; overall, the forces are still strong, and even if the army presses on, it might not truly lose. Just look at the Thunder Cloud in the sky, with thunder roaring; it must be the Ten Major Families’ means for dealing with enemies. But there are many demons in the wild, and the next village or town is not nearby; your going out of the city is fraught with danger... of course, what to do ultimately is up to your decision; the small old man is just mentioning it."
Xiong Rudong listened attentively, pondered, seemingly moved.
But in the end, he still firmly shook his head.
"Thank you, Mr. Ji, for your advice, but my mind is made up; please fulfill it."
He still only wanted to leave.
Thunder City is fraught with changes, with too much uncertainty for him, a small man, to simply seek peace for his family and not be drawn into it.
Good and bad are interdependent; Ji Xiangsong naturally didn’t say much more, let him out, and he turned to leave, busy with other things.
Besides Xiong Rudong, the Rebel Army received many requests to leave the city.
Unlike Xiong Rudong, who asked through favor, others had to offer more practical items such as money, supplies, and even talent transportation.
In short, whatever the Rebel Army lacks, these people need to provide, otherwise they won’t be able to leave Thunder City through the Rebel Army.
And the Rebel Army could accept so many promises and gain such immense wealth largely because... the Rebel Army and Foolish Underworld began to connect.
From top to bottom, many orders were issued, and when it came to the implementation stage, many things were already becoming clear.
...
"Diao... Mr."
Yi Feiyan, who was guarding the city gate, looked oddly at the person in front of him.
Looking again at the wanted portrait posted on the nearby city wall, he almost thought he was seeing things.
What’s going on?
The person wanted by the Foolish Underworld had now become his immediate superior, not only able to strut around the city but also able to command the Foolish Underworld people to work for him.
What kind of world is this...
Yi Feiyan never expected that one day, the Foolish Underworld would have to obey the orders of the Rebel Army traitors and completely rely on the Rebel Army.
But this is the command from the Hall Master above, and he, as a mere Captain, has no right to question, only obey the orders.
The Foolish Underworld, with its strict hierarchy, is like the Ten Major Families of Thunder City always reigning above all, leaving most below with no authority to speak.
Remember that this guy in front just entered Thunder City a while ago? A pure outsider who caused a commotion and made a name for himself, and now he’s suddenly a higher-up in the Rebel Army, and even higher in the Foolish Underworld...
This bizarre world left Yi Feiyan wondering if he wasn’t even awake yet today.
But helplessly, facts are facts, and under the Hall Master’s command, he remained silent.
"You, you, you, and you, yes, you, Shu Dingxiu! Don’t step back, step forward!"
Fang Yu was looking at the health bar to pick people; it was clear who was strong or weak, trying to hide?
Shu Dingxiu:...
Yi Feiyan, with puzzled eyes, looked at an inconspicuous guy in his team.
