I Can See Your Combat Power

Above the cloud layer, the biting cold wind swept over. Tang Luo and Mr. Xu flew together, one leading and the other following, towards Xiling City.

Hey Wait! Mr. Xu called a stop to the young man who was flying by

manipulating his Qi, and the two of them settled on the cloud layer.

What is it? Tang Luo asked casually.

I feel that somethings wrong! Mr. Xu said, stroking his chin and sizing up Tang Luo before asking, Is this your design?

Tang Luo chuckled lightly but did not deny it.

What are you trying to do? Mr. Xu asked, looking utterly confused. He didnt understand why, if Tang Luo wanted to kill Gong Zheng, he had to use Mi Shen to do it. The man was an arrogant and pretentious irritant.

Tang Luo squinted his eyes and did not answer. Instead, he asked: What do you think of the Righteous Gang?

A bunch of bullies preying on the weak, Mr. Xu answered casually. Why? What do you think would happen after the Righteous Gang was wiped out? Tang Luo asked, arms crossed over his chest.

The common people will have peace for a few days, and then another similar gang will emerge, said Mr. Xu, spreading his hands with an expression of helplessness.

The fundamental reason why evilpeople in the world cannot be eradicated is not that the warriors lack the will to kill. Instead, even if you kill all the evil people you can see, in two years time when you come back, a new crop of villains will have emerged.

Good and evil are inherent traits hidden within people. As long as there is humanity, there is both kindness and evil.

The so-called act of supressing the strong to aid the weak is just about replacing one group of strong with another.

As a warrior who has travelled thirty thousand miles, Mr. Xu had seen too many times where there was nothing they could do. Some evils were not strong at first. They were nourished by good people until they eventually swallowed them up.

Good people create evil, and then are destroyed by it. Once goodness disappears, evil starts to diminish. This means Kindness is actually the

cradle that nurtures evil.

If you understand this, its for the best. Tang Luo said with a smile, feeling that he might have saved himself a great deal of talk.

Still puzzled, Mr. Xu showed an innocent expression, waiting for Tang Luo to explain to him, almost with the implication that he would not leave without a clear explanation.

Seeing his childishly curious look, Tang Luo began to explain: The fall of the Righteous Gang means that many ambitious people will appear, and in order to accrue power, they might resort to even crueller methods than the current Righteous Gang.

In the background of this plain narrative, countless lives would be obliterated.

No matter how the events of the world change, truly pitiable are always those living at the bottom. Struggling and agonizing, but powerless to do anything about it. Even when the executioners blade is imminent, they could only roar a few times, but they could not resist the cutting edge.

This group of people is truly pitiful, but they are also truly hateful. They always think that their fate is predetermined, silently enduring, but never considering a change.

Mr.Xu somewhat understood it but wasnt sure, so he asked: What will you do?

Hm. Tang Luo laughed, I am going to provide some protection for the citizens of Xiling.eastern fantasy

Mr. Xu was a bit surprised and asked: You mean

Tang Luo nodded and said, I want to rebuild the Righteous Gang and unify the streets of Xiling.

To control ruffians, one has to be a ruffian. Undoubtedly, Gong Zheng is an excellent ruffian, and whats more important, hes just a ruffian.

What about your reputation? Are you going to toss it aside? Mr.Xu didnt quite understand why Tang Luo would want to get involved in this kind of underhanded business. A revered genius controlling a gang, how would the people of Xiling view him then?

In life, one doesnt only live for fame and fortune, one should also live for whats right and wrong. Tang Luo laughed and replied as such.

Wisdom in brief words! Admiration shone in Mr. Xus eyes. Ordinary people live for profits, the strong live for their reputation.

Many a hero has lived a lifetime without seeing through just a name, bound by the name of righteousness, unable to express themselves. But this younger cousin of his seemed so carefree.

On second thoughts, he was afraid that the cousin was only impulsively acting out of sentiment. After all, if a gang does not do underhanded things, where would the money come from? With so many people, he couldnt possibly fund them all by himself. So, he asked, What do you plan to do after youve unified the streets?

Tang Luo raised an eyebrow and asked, Youre curious about this too?

How are you going to support so many people without thosethose things? Mr. Xu answered a little annoyed.

Tang Luo smiled slightly and casually said, Youll know in the future. Are you still looking for your martial arts hall?

Of course lam! Mr. Xu answered decisively. By the way, who was saying something about your servant earlier, whats up with that?

Seeing the nosy look on his elder cousin, Tang Luo shook his head and flew straight to Xiling City.

He needed to intercept Gong Zhengs wife and children. If they ran around and ended up in South City, then it might turn into a serious situation quickly.

Tang Mings Mansion

As the oldest among the representatives of three branches, Tang Ming has always organized the major affairs of the branch. But after the impeachment last year, he suddenly felt that he no longer recognized Tang Cunfu and Tang Qi.

The three of them hadnt been in contact for a long time, and they hadnt even seen each other at the clan annual meeting. Today was their first meeting since last year.

The three sat in the hall. Although Tang Ming was sitting on the high position in his own mansion, he felt inexplicable chills along his spine because Tang Cunfu actually raised the impeachment proposal again, and this time, he was even more prepared.

Looking at Tang Cunfu and Tang Qi who were in complete agreement, Tang Ming felt overwhelmed and tried to dissuade them, Cunfu, the clan leader has already given up so many shops and houses which are worth far more than the money spent on buying the grains. Why are you insisting on proposing this?

Tang Cunfu replied coldly, Why would Tang Zhi hurriedly give up so many shops? Its simply because I exposed his lies and hes trying to respond quickly. You look at it closely, from the time the wartime law was enacted half a year ago, aside from those several hundred thousand refugees and the new city, what else has our Tang Family done? Isnt this proof enough?

Yes, elder brother Ming! Tang Qi agreed, I also think that Tang Zhi is too selfish and is no longer suitable for the position of Clan Leader!

There was a flicker of sadness in Tang Mings eyes. These two people werent even willing to call him the clan leader, but called him Tang Zhi instead. The eagerness that replaced it was so intense that they didnt even try to hide it.

At this point, he could only say resignedly: Tang Cunfu, Tang Qi. If you came here to get me to join you in impeaching the clan leader, Im sorry but I cannot agree.

Hearing Tang Mings direct refusal, Tang Cunfus face immediately grew cold. With wrath he asked, Why wont you assist me? Just how much has Tang Zhi promised you to make you neglect our years of friendship?!

The three branch representatives have traditionally made progress together, sharing honor and disgrace, representing the branch family heads in communication with the clan. Through the years, the three of them have experienced many trivial and significant events that even subtly made Tang Cunfu feel that what contributes to the prosperity of the Tang Family wasnt the lofty Tang Zhi, but the three of them.

He believed that if he becomes the leader, with Tang Qi and Tang Ming as his aides, the three of them together could control the Tang Family and elevate it to a level beyond its current state.

In the face of Tang Mings decisive refusal, Tang Cunfu was heartbroken.. Why couldnt Tang Ming understand, he wasnt doing this to seize power and profit, but to develop the Tang Family even better?
