Target: Maple City
Su Mei looked at the leader of the Mad Lion Gang in front of her and sneered, "I say, Tie Wu, is your head filled with muscles? I just took over the Black Mian Sect and slapped that old Yin Gu Lao across the face. Now you're saying our two sides should cooperate? Do you think that's possible?"
Tie Wu wasn't angry at Su Mei's sarcasm. Instead, he laughed and said, "Maybe. Why not?"
"It was just the annihilation of a second-rate force, and besides, the Black Mian Sect wasn't even Direct Descendant of the Sky Yin Sect..."
"As long as there's enough benefit, let alone wiping out one of his peripheral sects, even if you kill Old Yin's father, I dare say he'd still greet you with a smile!"
Hearing this, Mo Tang's lips twitched.
However, he did believe that what the leader of the Mad Lion Gang said was true.
In this place, only mutual benefit can be the best condition to bind both parties together!
Su Mei also became serious, straightening her posture slightly as she stared at Tie Wu and said in a deep voice, "So, what exactly is this important matter that you're talking about, one that could make our two families abandon our feud?"
Tie Wu grinned, knowing that this ambitious woman was still moved by what he had said.
He pulled over a chair and plopped down opposite Su Mei, ignoring everyone from Rakshasa City around him. Staring into Su Mei's alluring eyes, he squeezed out four words, one by one...
"Take over Maple City!"
After the death of Medicine Emperor Han Feng, his vast business network in the Black Corner Region collapsed instantly.
Countless resources fell into the mouths of the hungry wolves in the Black Corner Region. The Rakshasa Gate, the Mad Lion Gang, and even the Sky Yin Sect all made considerable gains.
But this is far from enough to satisfy the appetites of these hungry wolves...
As Han Feng's stronghold, Maple City is one of the most prosperous places in the entire Black Corner Region, and it is also where the essence of Han Feng's power lies.
With Han Feng's death, Maple City, once a forbidden zone in the Black Corner Region, instantly opened its gates to all the hungry wolves of the Black Corner Region...
Looking at the greasy, fatty meat inside the door, one can only imagine how many people would want to pounce on it and take a bite.
However, because there were too many hungry wolves coveting this piece of meat, they were also wary of each other, thus creating a strange balance. None of them dared to be the first to rush out, lest they be surrounded and attacked by their own kind...
Tie Wu's undisguised voice echoed in the hall.
"As far as I know, many top-tier forces in the Black Corner Region are secretly colluding. Yuan Yi, the leader of the Eight Gates, went to the Earth Flame Sect three days ago. I don't need to elaborate on his purpose, do I?"
"I've also heard that Fan Lao of the Blood Sect seems to be planning to invite some reclusive senior experts to come out of seclusion, hoping to dominate Maple City... However, because there were rumors that their people ambushed the people of the Heavenly Snake Mansion at the Black Seal City Auction and killed the elders of the Black Skull Tomb, both of these forces seem to be looking for trouble with them. So I think his actions are more about protecting the foundation of his Blood Sect..."
Everyone listened quietly to Tie Wu's story, growing more and more shocked as they listened.
Has the Black Corner Region become so turbulent without my knowledge?
Only Mo Tang remained completely calm at this moment...
After all, he was involved in everything that happened today.
He even secretly spread rumors about the Blood Sect ...
After explaining everything he knew in detail, Tie Wu stared intently at Su Mei's pretty face, awaiting the answer from the Rakshasa Gate Master.
Su Mei pondered for a long time before saying, "Have you ever considered that even if the three of us join forces, we still have no chance of winning if those people make a move?"
Although she didn't say it explicitly, Tie Wu instantly knew who the "those people" she was referring to were...
"You mean those old guys who have disappeared? I don't think a mere Maple City would be enough to alarm these people, would it?"
Those old guys were figures who stirred up trouble in the Black Corner Region decades ago, but they haven't appeared in public for decades. Who knows if they're already dead...
Even if they are still alive, they must be at least at the Dou Zong level, right? Otherwise, the two elders, Golden Silver Elders, Half-Step Dou Zong n't be at the top of the Black List.
Su Mei's expression changed several times, clearly indicating that she didn't want to give up such a lucrative opportunity as Maple City so easily.
Just then, Mo Tang, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.
"Actually, this shouldn't be a big problem..."
The sudden sound drew the attention of both Su Fei and Tie Wu.
Upon seeing that the speaker was such a young man, Tie Wu's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly guessed the other party's identity.
"Haha, this must be the young Dou Wang that Sect Master Su just recruited, right? I heard you defeated Luo Min with just a few punches and kicks? Truly a promising young man!"
From this brief encounter, Mo Tang understood that although Tie Wu was big and burly and looked like a brainless brute, his cunning and methods were no less than those of any first-class power leader.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to control such a massive force as the Mad Lion Gang!
Mo Tang nodded and smiled, saying, "I dare not accept such praise from Chief Tie."
"Sect Leader, Chief Tie, when we discuss the ownership of Maple City, we must not forget that there is an existence in the Black Corner Region that is more untouchable than any other force!"
Su Mei's eyes lit up, and she immediately said, "You mean, Jia Nan Academy?"
Mo Tang nodded.
"Indeed, it is Jia Nan Academy!"
Throughout the entire Black Corner Region, and even the entire Northwest Region, Jia Nan Academy is the true strongest force!
Besides the elusive, Half-Saint dean, there are also two Thousand Hundred Elders and Erlao, who have been guarding the academy for many years, and their combined strength is comparable to that of Dou Zun ...
Even if these forces are unknown to those in the Black Corner Region, Jia Nan Academy still openly possesses several Dou Emperors and Dou Zong level experts, not to mention Dou Wang, with a large number in both the Outer Academy combined...
However, Mo Tang originally said these things to dispel Su Mei's concerns, but unexpectedly, after hearing about the reputation of the Jia Nan Academy, she became even more afraid.
"Little Brother Tang, you're right. Maple City is the closest city in the Black Corner Region to the Jia Nan Academy. In the past, with Medicine Emperor Han Feng around, Jia Nan Academy could tolerate him to avoid conflict with the entire Black Corner Region. But if it were us, things might not be so simple..."
Tie Wu nodded in agreement from the side.
"That's right. Han Feng has a great reputation and extensive Connections in the Black Corner Region, so even Jia Nan Academy wouldn't easily offend him."
Mo Tang was speechless. Had he made a fool of himself?
However, for the sake of his own power, he still had to make this happen.
"This isn't too much trouble, is it? We're going to seize resources, so we can just take them and leave. As long as we don't occupy Maple City, it'll be fine, right?"
"Furthermore, to put it bluntly... with your meager resources, Jia Nan Academy probably wouldn't even bother with you..."
