Jiang Tiansheng became more and more excited as he spoke, his eyes gleaming with ambition: "Akun, just go ahead and do it. We'll provide the manpower and the money you need. I'll fully support you."
"If Big D can successfully join Hung Hing, we'll go from twelve to thirteen branches, greatly increasing our strength. At that point, we won't have to fear Tung Sing, or even if other triads unite!"
Big D returned to his residence in Tsuen Wan with one hand that was wrapped up tightly.
When Lei Sao (Big D's wife) saw him like this, she was immediately surprised: "Didn't you go to Little B's funeral? What happened? Did you get into a fight?"
Big D's lips twitched, and he said somewhat awkwardly, "No, I was just curious and wanted to test the power of Iron Palm. I accidentally used too much force."
Lei's wife rolled her eyes at him, her tone tinged with helplessness: "Can't you just behave yourself? How old are you? Still so playful."
The long-haired man standing to the side couldn't help but recount what had happened: "It was Mr. Ye Tian demonstrating his kung fu. With one palm strike, he could leave a three-inch-deep handprint on a solid wood table. His power was astonishing."
"Out of curiosity, the eldest brother imitated Mr. Ye Tian and slammed his hand on the table, and this is what happened..."
Big D immediately got angry, glaring at the long-haired man: "You talk too much! Why do you have to bring up something you shouldn't say?"
The long-haired girl quickly lowered her head, pretending to admit her mistake, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, clearly she was secretly laughing.
Lei's wife's mouth gaped open in an "O" shape, her eyes filled with shock: "Ye Tian is actually that powerful? He can smash through a solid wood table with a single palm strike?"
Big D exclaimed, "That guy is the infamous Sky Dragon of the martial arts world, how could his skills be lacking?"
Lei Sao composed herself and quickly asked, "So, how did your talk with Ye Tian go? Did he agree to let you join Hung Hing?"
Big D suddenly changed the subject, asking somewhat uncertainly, "Am I really not suited for cunning? Am I unable to keep secrets?"
Aunt Lei rolled her eyes and said bluntly, "You're so naive. You wear your heart on your sleeve. How could you possibly hide anything?"
Big D sighed, his tone tinged with frustration: "I tried to express my thoughts tactfully, following your instructions, but Ye Tian saw right through me the moment I opened my mouth."
"He also told me that everyone in the Wo Shing Wo organization is cunning, and I, Big D, owe them eight hundred. Do you think I'm that bad?"
Lei's wife was speechless.
Just the fact that you can say such things verbatim really makes you deserving of this praise.
Not wanting to embarrass Big D too much, she quickly changed the subject: "So, what did Ye Tian say about joining Hung Hing? Did he agree?"
Big D immediately perked up and said smugly, "I'm Big D, the undisputed ruler of Tsuen Wan. They'd be more than happy to see me join Hung Hing. How could they possibly disagree?"
"However, when I left, Ye Tian told me something that made me a little uneasy, and I even made a bet with him."
Lei's wife's heart jumped. With Big D's brain, he actually made a bet with someone? She was really afraid that he would be scammed.
Fortunately, Big D explained that the bet was just a simple gentleman's agreement, betting on the outcome of the election for the chairman of the Wo Shing Wo, which put her at ease.
No, upon closer inspection, this isn't a bet at all; it's clearly Ye Tian secretly guiding and persuading Big D.
"Once this is over, we must have a good talk with Big D and tell him to get closer to Ye Tian. Only by following someone like him can he learn real skills."
Lei's wife was secretly making plans in her heart.
The smug look on Big D's face gradually faded, and his expression became serious: "What Ye Tian said really hit me hard."
"He said that even without my support, that good-for-nothing Blowchick could still win this year's presidential election."
He also said that as long as I'm still with the Sheng Hung Society, no matter when I run for office or who my opponent is, I will lose!
"This is absolutely outrageous!"
"My Great D has the greatest power, the most territory, and the most capable men under my command. Who can compare to me?"
"He also said that whoever competes with me can beat me. Isn't that a blatant insult?"
"Even if I wanted to join Hung Hing, he shouldn't humiliate me like this!"
Big D became increasingly angry as he spoke, and eventually even started talking nonsense.
Lei's wife was very experienced and knew that he was confused with anger, so she turned her gaze to the long hair and gestured for him to explain the whole story.
The man with long hair quickly bowed and said, "Mr. Ye analyzed that in order to maintain their authority and firmly control the power of the triad, the elders of Wo Luen Shing have always adhered to the principle of 'choosing the weak rather than the strong'."
"The reason why the eldest brother couldn't be elected as the leader wasn't because he wasn't strong enough, but precisely because he was too strong, which made the council of elders feel threatened."
"In order to balance the various forces and ensure their own voice, the elders of Wo Luen Shing would never choose a powerful figure like the eldest brother to be the leader."
Lei's wife's expression changed drastically instantly, her eyes filled with shock and solemnity: "Did Ye Tian say this himself?"
The man with long hair nodded and added, "Mr. Ye's judgment is based on the election results of SUPP over the past twenty years."
"None of the candidates who were strong enough and had their own independent power were able to be elected as the president."
Lei's wife swayed slightly, and her face turned somewhat pale.
Looking at her like this, Big D asked, puzzled, "What are you worried about?"
"That good-for-nothing, without my support, how could he possibly have been elected leader? It's a complete fantasy!"
Lei's wife interrupted his boasting, asking, "What if he actually gets elected?"
Big D shouted, "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! How could that good-for-nothing with no ability or connections, Blow Chicken, possibly be elected as the leader?"
Lei's wife asked again, her tone unusually serious: "I mean, what if he really gets selected? Have you thought about the consequences?"
Big D suddenly fell silent, slumped onto the sofa, his face clouded with gloom: "That means what Ye Tian said is true."
"Those old foxes at Wo Shing Shing never even considered making me the head of the company!"
"Ha, the head of Wo Shing is elected every two years. Even if it's a matter of sitting in a row and dividing the spoils, shouldn't it be my turn by now?"
"If they never intended for me to be elected in the first place, then what was the point of all my efforts over the years?"
"I'll fucking kill those old foxes! Then I'll take my brothers and join Hung Hing!"
Mrs. Lei sighed, her tone tinged with helplessness: "If you really decide to switch jobs to Hung Hing, do you care whether those old foxes can rot away at Wo Luen Shing?"
"The problem now is that we might be in big trouble."
Big D looked up in surprise: "What trouble? What trouble could we possibly have?"
After hesitating for a moment, Sister Lei gritted her teeth and said, "If Chui-chi is really elected as the leader tomorrow, then going to Hung Hing will not be a prestigious position for us, but a forced shelter after we have nowhere else to turn."
Big D was instantly enraged. He slammed his fist on the table, ignoring the pain in his hand, and roared, "I am the strongest of the nine hall masters of the Wo Shing Wo! I'm highly sought after wherever I go. How could I possibly be forced to take me in?"
"That's a really hurtful thing to say!"
Lei's wife smiled wryly and said, "Isn't this obvious?"
"That's right, Lei Sheng, you are indeed the strongest among the nine hall masters of the Lian Sheng Group, there is no doubt about that."
"However, if Blowing Chicken is actually elected as the leader tomorrow, it will mean that the Wo Shing Wo veterans' principle of 'choosing the weak over the strong' is true."
"In other words, for the next ten or twenty years, as long as you are still with Wo Shing, you will never have any hope of being elected as the head of the organization, and you will always be suppressed and checked by the elders."
"Chicken is a good-for-nothing. If he's elected, he probably won't dare to do anything to you, nor will he have the ability to do anything to you."
"But what if the next leader is someone with both strength and ambition?"
A bad feeling immediately rose in Big D's heart, and he quickly asked, "What do you mean? Does the new leader dare to attack me?"
Lei's wife's tone became urgent: "Other leaders won't be as useless as Chuiji. If someone with 80% of your strength is elected as the leader, the first person he'll want to get rid of is you!"
Big D was instantly enraged: "What right does he have? I've done so much for Wo Luen Shing, I conquered all the territory in Tsuen Wan, what right does he have to attack me?"
