Living between the two realms, I seek enlightenment in the mortal world.

"Xiao Guo, I'm asking you, do you want to take over, become the gang leader, gradually establish your own sect, and become its founder?"

This time, Chen Feng spoke even more bluntly.

He didn't just have this idea on a whim.

It's been like this ever since I joined the Fierce Tiger Gang.

It's better to create your own power than to live under someone else's roof.

Even living in seclusion and cultivating oneself would be better than the current situation.

"Brother, I'll do whatever you say!" Jiang Xiaoguo realized what she meant and said firmly, "I'll do whatever you tell me to do."

"You silly girl, you always need to have things you enjoy doing." Chen Feng said, both amused and exasperated.

"Brother, I just love being by your side." Jiang Xiaoguo's face flushed slightly. "I'll do anything as long as you don't kick me out."

"Well, you can do whatever you want. Just take it one step at a time. If Sun Yuemei and her group don't go too far, fine. Otherwise, send them to join the old gang leader."

Once a decision is made, there's no more hesitation.

Chen Feng once again entered a state of cultivation.

He slowly honed his inner energy and improved his physical fitness.

Night slowly fell.

Chen Feng finished his cultivation and was about to take Xiao Guo out for dinner when Sister Cuihua arrived, saying that the elite disciples of the gang would dine together that night and asked the two of them to go.

He naturally wouldn't refuse.

In the middle courtyard, several tables were set up.

Torches were lit all around, their bright flames dispelling the darkness and illuminating the area as if it were daytime.

Sun Yuemei, Lu Wen, Zhang Fu, and Liu Gang were all present.

There were also elite members like Wang Hu, who were promoted to hall master.

Even Sister-in-law Cuihua sat down at a table.

Upon seeing the two of them arrive, everyone stood up to express their respect.

"Xiao Guo, come over here!" Sun Yuemei waved and pointed to the seat next to her.

There were two empty chairs there.

Chen Feng walked over and sat down as if no one else was there.

Jiang Xiaoguo sat down next to him.

Sun Yuemei looked at the two men, a complex expression flashing across her face, before her expression hardened. She stood up, surveyed her surroundings, and said solemnly, "Since the passing of our old leader, we have gone through a life-or-death ordeal. Although we survived, our Fierce Tiger Gang has been severely weakened, with less than one-tenth of our strength remaining. That night, Zhu San, the third leader of Black Wind Stronghold, died in our gang. I heard the news, and the other two leaders have already come to seek revenge."

"Those three leaders are sworn brothers, namely Xiong Da, Hu Er, and Zhu San, and they have a very good relationship."

"With Pig Three dead, they definitely won't let this go."

"The key point is that Tiger Two has the strength of the mid-stage of the Innate Realm, while Bear Big has the cultivation of the late-stage of the Innate Realm."

"Even if only one of them comes, they can wipe out our Tiger Gang; if they go on a killing spree, none of us will escape."

Sun Yuemei paused.

The others immediately paled and became restless.

"If they dare to come, then we'll fight them to the death." Wang Hu stood up, a fierce look on his face. "I don't believe they'll dare to swagger into the city."

"It's better to be safe than sorry," Zhang Fu said in a low voice. "If they really come, how can we resist? Chief, do you have a plan?"

"Yes, it's the only way I can think of." Sun Yuemei's voice was heavy, suppressing her agitation. She turned to look at Chen Feng, her gaze finally settling on Jiang Xiaoguo. "Only Xiaoguo can save us."

Xiao Guo's face darkened with anger, and she was about to speak when Chen Feng stopped her, asking, "How can we save her?"

He had already guessed the other party's plan.

I also want to see if there's anyone in the Fierce Tiger Gang who's worth helping.

"As everyone knows, the Ximen family is one of the three major families in Kaoshan City. They are very powerful, and the patriarch has the cultivation of a Grandmaster." Sun Yuemei breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that you asked.

She then declared firmly, "The second young master of the Ximen family is a martial arts fanatic. He has already achieved innate cultivation at a young age, and he is also humble and handsome. He is a rare and excellent match. The Ximen family has proposed to Xiaoguo. If she agrees to marry the second young master, they are willing to help us resolve the troubles at Black Wind Stronghold."

Before anyone could speak, she quickly added, "The Ximen family is not only willing to resolve the Black Wind Stronghold's troubles, but also willing to offer Chen Feng eight thousand taels of silver as a bride price. If he marries into the family, they will provide full support in terms of cultivation techniques, elixirs, divine weapons, and so on."

"Xiao Guo, you will have a bright future. In martial arts, you will definitely be able to reach the level of a grandmaster, and even a great grandmaster is possible."

"Our Tiger Gang will also be protected, and we won't have to worry about living in constant fear anymore."

"With eight thousand taels of silver and the Ximen family as his backer, Xiaofeng can live a life of wealth and honor."

Seeing everyone quiet down, Sun Yuemei's eyes grew brighter, knowing things were settled. She turned to Chen Feng and said gently, "Xiao Feng, for Xiao Guo's future, for your father's dying wish to make the Fierce Tiger Gang more prosperous, for the brothers and sisters of the Fierce Tiger Gang, and even more for yourself, are you willing to let Xiao Guo marry him?"

Jiang Xiaoguo's eyelids twitched wildly.

His gaze toward Sun Yuemei was devoid of any warmth, as cold as ice.

She looked at Chen Feng again, feeling somewhat uneasy even though she knew he wouldn't agree.

Chen Feng didn't immediately respond, but his eyes darted around, taking in the changes in everyone's expressions.

Some people couldn't hold back and jumped out immediately.

"This is a good thing! If Xiao Guo marries him, she'll have a future; Chen Feng will have a powerful backer and won't have to worry about wealth in the future; and our Fierce Tiger Gang can also solve our troubles. It's a win-win situation." Cuihua immediately agreed, her face beaming with joy, seemingly proud of the occasion.

"Xiao Guo, you've really climbed into a high-class family. Congratulations!" Granny Liu couldn't help but say enviously.

She was Lu Wen's attendant, taking care of her daily life.

"This is the most perfect method," another hall master, Liu Yuan, couldn't help but say.

Many people agree with this.

"Isn't this inappropriate?" Wang Hu hesitated. "Is Miss Xiaoguo really willing?"

At this moment, Chen Feng stood up, looked at Sun Yuemei, and said calmly, "Chief Sun, what you said makes a lot of sense. If we follow your method, you'll be satisfied, the Fierce Tiger Gang will be satisfied, and the Ximen family will be satisfied. But you've overlooked the most crucial issue: is Xiao Guo willing?"

"Furthermore, Xiao Guo is a Xiantian cultivator at sixteen. Her future achievements are limitless. Look at the Fierce Tiger Gang today, who can compare? Not a single one."

"If he were in the Fierce Tiger Gang, he would be number one."

"It was someone like that who was pushed out by you."

"And they used the entire gang to kidnap people."

"First of all, this is disrespectful to her."

"Secondly, is it even human to trade away the very person who just saved the gang from disaster for peace again?"

"Xiao Guo has innate cultivation. It's one thing not to promote her, but to use her to ensure the safety of the gang? Does that mean every disciple in the gang can be sold off in the future?"

Chen Feng's words were sharp and swift, giving Chief Sun no chance to refute them.

His words silenced many people.

But many more people, after their expressions changed, revealed anger.

Sun Yuemei's expression changed several times, but before she could speak, Lu Wen, who was sitting next to her, couldn't hold back any longer. She stood up, pointed at Chen Feng's nose, and angrily rebuked him: "Chen Feng, it's an honor for Xiao Guo to marry into the Ximen family. Who do you think you are, daring to refuse..."

Before she could finish speaking, she was slapped away by the furious Jiang Xiaoguo.

Snapped……

The sharp sound startled the night.

Accompanied by a scream, two blood-stained teeth were spat out.
