Translator: Tim Editor: Chrissy
The two men standing behind Zuo Yue suddenly pulled out their guns and rapidly shot at Ye Mo. Ye Mo sighed; it seemed that he really needed to prepare some normal nails on him, otherwise, he was sure he could kill these two before they fired. Meanwhile, the shooting speed of wind blade couldn’t keep up with bullet, much less a fireball.
After the gun fired, everyone was happy. They didn’t expect to have the chance to fire in front of Ye Mo.
Suddenly, Ye Mo waved his hand and a chi wall immediately surrounded him. When the two bullets reached near the wall, it slowed down, but this was only seen under Ye Mo’s spirit sense. Before other people saw what happened, Ye Mo had already grabbed the two bullets and threw it back.
There was another two gun shots. When the two opened fire for the second time, Ye Mo’s bullets had already pierced their forehead.
Two blood dots appeared on their heads, and Ye Mo just managed to catch the two bullets they shot out again. At this moment, the two men finally fell to the ground.
There was not a single person in the room that wasn’t experienced in fighting and death. What else have they not seen? Although they have heard that some people could catch bullets, but it was the first time they saw it with their own eyes. They couldn’t even believe their own eyes. This wasn’t all. The person who caught the bullet could use the bullet to kill the shooter.
Some knowledgeable people have already guessed that Ye Mo came from the hidden sects. No matter how strong the people in mafia was, nor how many people they had, they wouldn’t be able to compare with the hidden sects. If it wasn’t for that the people in the hidden sects had a different pursuit, they would not be able to sit here and have meetings.
Although Zuo Yue was fierce, but faced with someone who could kill him at anytime, his back had already begun sweating. He warned himself that he was the big boss of Da Tang, but he couldn’t suppress the fear of death inside of him. Other people who said they would kill him were just threatening him and needed to worry about revenge. But this person dared to even kill Qian Longtou, so it was all too easy to kill him.
Zuo Yue looked around hopefully. Those big bosses who were just talking about unity all lowered their heads. Not one person dared to come out and speak for him.
He scanned already and took back his disappointed gaze. It seemed it would be impracticable to find help here. Plus, he understood so what if someone came to help him? Was he stronger than Qian Longtou. With the temperament and posture Ye Mo came in, Zuo Yue didn’t doubt at all that he killed Qian Longtou.
"Friend, predecessor…" Zuo Yue saluted with his fists.
He hesitated before abandoning his pride and saying, "Predecessor, although I’m the big boss of Da Tang, but there are good and bad people in my men. If they annoyed you, I’m here to apologize…"
He then looked at Ye Mo’s agreeing face, Zuo Yue didn’t dare to breathe loud and continued, "I know I angered predecessor, if there’s anything you want me to do, please tell me. If you need my life, do as you wish."
Ye Mo sneered after listening to Zuo Yue’s words. He knew that Zuo Yue couldn’t have such no fear of death temperament.
Ye Mo suddenly threw out the bullet in his hand. Before Zuo Yue could react, it had pierced Zuo Yue’s shoulder.
Zuo Yue’s face turned pale, but he didn’t dare to move. He knew that if Ye Mo wanted to kill him, he would’ve died there.
"Go back and kill the person responsible and immediately disband your Da Tang. Also, go pay tributes to Uncle Pei’s grave. After you have done this, come look for me," Ye Mo coldly said. He didn’t say that the bullet had sealed Zuo Yue’s heart meridian. If Zuo Yue dared to not look for him in 3 days, he would die. And, Ye Mo knew that Zuo Yue didn’t dare to come back for him. at most, he would disband Da Tang and run.
So Ye Mo wouldn’t chase him; since he dared to run, then death would await him. If he guessed wrong and that Zuo Yue really dared to come look for him, he wouldn’t mind letting him live.
Zuo Yue’s heart raced with joy. Of course, he wouldn’t be so dumb to come find Ye Mo. He just wanted to leave Ye Mo as far as possible.
Ye Mo looked at him coldly as Zuo Yue held his arm and left desperately. He didn’t even ask how he could find him. Ye Mo knew he was right. This guy wanted to run indeed.
Seeing Zuo Yue leave so desperately, everyone felt something was wrong, but Zuo Yue was dumbed by the thought of escape. Plus, even those who noticed something was wrong couldn’t tell what was wrong.
The black-dressed girl looked at Ye Mo in surprise. Of course, she saw Ye Mo’s actions and knew Ye Mo must have left something of Zuo Yue. If Zuo Yue didn’t come, he would surely die, but she couldn’t tell exactly what Ye Mo did. None of the big bosses here felt that it was funny Zuo Yue calling Ye Mo predecessor. If someone like Ye Mo wasn’t predecessor, then who was?
Tian Shou’s face was pale, but he eventually didn’t say anything and sat down.
"Predecessor, I am Jao Bianyi, now the leader of Western Sands. I didn’t know predecessor has arrived, apologies for our negligence. Peng Yang is my good brother, he annoyed predecessor, could predecessor please have mercy." Then, Jiao Bianyi looked at the skinny man who was tossed to the corner by Ye Mo.
Ye Mo nodded. He never intended to kill Peng Yang, and now that Jiao Bianyi asked for mercy, Ye Mo casually said, "You have no business here, go to the side."
"Yes." Jiao Bianyi was happy. This meant that Ye Mo let him go. He wouldn’t be dumb enough to go argue with Ye Mo. That was suicide.
Then, the black-clothed woman suddenly stood up and copied Jiao Bianyi’s tone. "I’m Xu Yuehua, people call me Black Widow. Greetings, predecessor."
Seeing that Jiao Bianyi and the Black Widow spoke like that, all the big bosses stood up while reporting their name and gang. Everything seemed so orderly all of a sudden.
Afterwards, Ye Mo found Metal Mountain. He seemed to be in his 50s, however, his eyes seemed sunken, not allowing people to see what he’s thinking about.
"I’m Ye Mo. My principle is I don’t mess with those who don’t mess with me. Since you mess with me, then don’t blame me. Metal Mountain, stand up." The first part of Ye Mo’s words made everyone gasp a sigh of relief. They thought everything had ended, but then his latter part hang up everyone’s hearts. They were scared that Ye Mo was looking for more trouble.
"Predecessor, I’m Metal Mountain. What business does predecessor have with me?" Of course Metal Mountain didn’t know Ye Mo’s name, not even Daoist Xian knew him.
Although Metal Mountain was the famous head of a gang in Hong Kong, his facial expression was very polite. The difference with him and Zuo Yue was that he was calm although remaining polite.
Everyone knew that the reason Metal Mountain was so calm was because he had a very strong assistance called Daoist Xian. This was the reason he could be the leading power in the Hong Kong underworld.
"Because your men have messed with me, I came here today just for you." Ye Mo could tell that Metal Mountain wasn’t simple. His title was "Metal Chains Crossing the River" and he did seem like a troublesome person. No wonder Wu Xueming was no match for him.
"This is the first time I saw you, predecessor, who messed with you, predecessor?" Metal Mountain wasn’t afraid as Jiao Bianyi because he wasn’t sure if Daoist Xian was killed. If Daoist Xian was here, he wouldn’t be afraid of anyone.
Even if Ye Mo was very strong, he believed that Ye Mo was no match for Daoist Xian.
Ye Mo could tell by Metal Mountain’s expression that he had his hopes on Daoist Xian. He sneered before saying, "That Daoist is your man right. His disciple stole a type of grass I planted, so he pissed me off. Oh by the way, I’ve slaughtered both him and his two disciples. I’ve annihilated your Metal River in Luo Cang."
Ye Mo’s words was like a huge hammer smashing into Metal Mountain’s chest. Daoist Xian was killed, and this meant that his leading position would come to an end.
Metal Mountain subconsciously looked at the big bosses around him and found that a few of them had a glaring beam in their eyes. His heart sunk. He now hated Daoist Xian’s disciples to the bones. Why did they have to mess with this Ye Mo.
He didn’t expect Ye Mo was so strong that he could even kill Daoist Xian. Daoist Xian was a master who was one step away from Earth Level.
Seeing the sneer at the corner of Ye Mo’s mouth, Metal Mountain shivered. He finally felt Zuo Yue’s mood and no longer had his previous composure. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and immediately said, "Predecessor, I’ll take you to Daoist Xian’s place immediately. If the things are still untouched, it should be there."
He knew that Daoist Xian’s disciples brought some grass from the mainland, but he wouldn’t even ask about these stuff at all. Now that Ye Mo asked, of course, he remembered.
"Lead the way." Ye Mo’s main purpose here was to get the Silver Heart Grass. From Metal Mountain’s tone, he seemed to know where it was. He was glad and didn’t want to waste time here.
Seeing Ye Mo and Metal Mountain walk out, the people in the room finally felt relieved. Ye Mo was too horrific for them; he could no longer be threatened by any gang.
