Three people, with resentful looks in their eyes, were taken away by the members of the Criminal Police Team, while Ling Feng drove back leisurely.

"Feifei, come back, I've already caught those guys!" Ling Feng said while calling Bai Feifei.

Bai Feifei's voice carried surprise, "What? It's been such a short time, and you've caught them all?"

"Hehe, I've already handed them over to the members of your Criminal Police Team!" Ling Feng said with a hint of pride, "So, am I not awesome?"

Bai Feifei responded disdainfully, "Pretty average!"

By helping Bai Feifei catch these three people, Bai Feifei had somewhat forgiven Ling Feng.

However, Bai Feifei soon used her official duties as an excuse to "expel" Ling Feng.

Ling Feng's face showed helplessness, and at that moment, his phone rang.

"What is it?" Ling Feng asked indifferently.

"Master!" came the coquettish voice of Wei Meizi over the phone: "Just now, our Flame Hall launched a counterattack against the United Hearts Gang, and we..."

"I've told you I won't interfere with Flame Hall's actions!" Ling Feng said lightly, "If you haven't encountered any difficulties, then let's leave it at that!"

On the other end of the phone, Wei Meizi felt a rush of frustration, having mustered up the courage to make this call, only to be met with Ling Feng's lukewarm response.

"Oh right!" Ling Feng seemed to remember something, "I do have one thing I need your help with!"

"Whatever Master needs, please say!" Wei Meizi said.

"Isn't Chen Ningxue's concert coming up soon? Save me some tickets in good spots," Ling Feng said.

Wei Meizi asked, "May I ask how many tickets Master needs?"

"Not too many, maybe fifty or sixty should do!"

Wei Meizi nearly fainted—fifty or sixty? Wasn't that a lot? For a popular star like Chen Ningxue, good seats at her concerts were extremely hard to come by, and scalpers online were even selling them for tens of thousands per ticket!

These fifty or sixty tickets were equivalent to five or six hundred thousand!

But as the Hall Master of Flame Hall, Wei Meizi naturally wouldn't fret over a mere five or six hundred thousand. She said, "Don't worry, Master, I'll definitely get it done for you!"

"Okay, nothing else, I'm hanging up!" Before Wei Meizi could say anything else, Ling Feng had already hung up!

On the other end of the phone, a look of surprise appeared on Wei Meizi's face.

Although Ling Feng said he wouldn't interfere with Flame Hall's operations, Wei Meizi decided to test him anyway! Who knew if Ling Feng's words were genuine!

But after today's probe, Wei Meizi found that Ling Feng really seemed indifferent to the actions of Flame Hall.

"Could it be that he really has no interest in Flame Hall?" Wei Meizi sat on the sofa, her eyes gleaming strangely, "If that's the case, my worries might be a bit superfluous!"

However, Wei Meizi's heart flashed with indignation, "How can my Flame Hall, being one of the three great underground forces in Yanjing, be disregarded like this!"

Wei Meizi paused for a moment, then shook her head and picked up her phone, "Now we can proceed to the next step of the plan. It's better to break one finger than to injure ten. This time, we will seize United Hearts Gang and cripple them thoroughly, at least to let our opponents know that Flame Hall is not to be trifled with!"

With Ling Feng's emergence, Wei Meizi completely subdued the Shadow Group. Without the help of the Shadow Group, Wei Meizi had been able to contend with United Hearts Gang and Taizi Club; now, with the inclusion of the Shadow Group, Wei Meizi was invigorated like a tiger that had grown wings, and her counterattacks became even more fierce!

"Big brother, many of our places are under attack by Flame Hall!" one Hall Master from United Hearts Gang said with a distressed expression, "The strength of the opponent's Shadow Group is simply too powerful, our people are no match at all!"

Lei Lingfeng looked at the map attentively, ignoring the complaints of many Hall Masters. After a long while, he slowly said, "So now what do you all suggest we should do?"

A Hall Master replied, "Now that Flame Hall has the support of the Shadow Group and its strength has greatly increased, if United Hearts Gang resists directly, our strength will certainly be greatly reduced. I think we should ally with Taizi Club now. With the combined power of both our groups, we can definitely defeat Flame Hall!"

"Exactly, Taizi Club has always been lurking behind the scenes, letting our brothers in United Hearts Gang fight on the front lines. This is hardly what allies should do!"

"Right, it's time for Taizi Club to exert some effort now!"

...

The crowd was noisy and tumultuous, like a marketplace. Lei Lingfeng gazed indifferently at the noisy crowd below without saying a word.

Under Lei Lingfeng's gaze, however, the voices of the people gradually grew quieter, because at that moment Lei Lingfeng felt like a lurking tiger, fierce yet calm!

"Why aren't you speaking anymore? I see that everyone has plenty of ideas," Lei Lingfeng looked around, then asked, "Ling Xiao, what about you? Do you also advocate for an alliance with Taizi Club?"

Ling Xiao, the youngest among those present, usually remained silent during meetings, as he had no real right to speak. After all, his experience was too limited, and his presence at the meeting was already a great favor!

Ling Xiao looked at Lei Lingfeng and slowly said, "Gang Leader, I do not think that allying with Taizi Club is a good choice at this moment!"

"Why?"

"Firstly, although United Hearts Gang has a pact with Taizi Club, I believe everyone present knows well that such pacts are meant to be broken! All alliances exist due to mutual interests. Relying on a mere pact to make Taizi Club exert effort is unrealistic! Moreover, if United Hearts Gang cannot withstand Flame Hall, why wouldn't Taizi Club simply assist Flame Hall instead?"

"How dare you!" a Hall Master stood up and shouted, "What does a greenhorn like you know! The alliance pact between gangs is not something you can dismiss so easily. You're talking nonsense!"

Ling Xiao responded coldly, "I am speaking my mind at the behest of the Gang Leader, and as a mere Deputy Hall Master, even if what I say is incorrect, why must you get so agitated?"

"You... I think you're spreading delusions!" Hall Master Liu said coldly.

"Hall Master Liu, I, Lei Lingfeng, am not dead yet!" At this moment, Lei Lingfeng's cold voice came through, "Whether Ling Xiao makes sense or not, I, Lei, still have the ability to discern that!"

Heartl chilled, Hall Master Liu stammered, "I...I was just worried..."

"Enough, you needn't say more. Ling Xiao, continue!"

Ling Xiao glanced at Hall Master Liu and continued, "According to the previous alliance agreement, Taizi Club will help United Hearts Gang unify the underground forces, and in return, they seek our support when necessary, which means they aim to control United Hearts Gang to some extent! With this in mind, it's even less likely for Taizi Club to get involved."

"Because when both parties are injured, that's when their intervention becomes most valuable, isn't it?"
