"Since you've come, why is Ying Junshi in such a hurry to leave?" At that moment, a faint voice came from the distance.

Brother Whistle's eyes flashed with disbelief because the owner of this voice was the Deputy Hall Master of United Hearts Gang, Ling Xiao!

"Ling Xiao, how can it be you?" Brother Whistle pointed at Ling Xiao and said, "Could all this be a conspiracy by your United Hearts Gang?"

Seeing Ling Xiao, Ying Changyu's eyes also flashed with surprise. He had thought it was Flame Hall who made the move, but it turned out to be someone from United Hearts Gang, which made no sense at all!

Ling Xiao slowly walked over, his presence filled with evil Qi, "What's the matter? Do you find it very strange? Did you not expect it to be us from United Hearts Gang?"

Brother Whistle got angry, "Truly unexpected, that your United Hearts Gang would be such people. But do you really think you can keep us here? Delusional! Zhao He, come out!"

A silent and reticent man walked out from behind Ying Changyu; his body carried no vitality, just like a wooden puppet!

At that moment, Ying Changyu sighed and said, "Ling Xiao, I didn't expect you to be the traitor within United Hearts Gang. Lei Lingfeng has been wise all his life, yet beneath his very eyes, someone dared to betray him. I think his face would indeed be quite a sight when he learns of this!"

Ling Xiao frowned, "I am the traitor?"

Ying Changyu said indifferently, "Of course, even before I came here, I knew this journey wouldn't be smooth sailing, and the ones most likely to strike were the people from Flame Hall, because only by taking action before our two forces could join together would they stand a chance of winning!"

"As for the United Hearts Gang, I had my suspicions about them too, but attacking us and blaming it on Flame Hall would be too risky and the benefits do not justify the risk. If I were Situ Wushui, I would have strongly opposed such a decision. Now that you are here, there's only one possibility, that is, you have betrayed the United Hearts Gang and joined the camp of Flame Hall!"

"But what I don't understand is, from any perspective, Flame Hall should not be a match for us. And you, being the most trusted young talent of Lei Lingfeng, why would you make such an unwise choice?" Ying Changyu said softly.

Ling Xiao looked at Ying Changyu coldly and clapped his hands, "Worthy of being the strategist of Taizi Club, Ying Junshi's analysis is indeed incisive and impressive! Correct, I joined Flame Hall for my own reasons, and that reason is that I must kill Brother Whistle, at all costs!"

Ying Changyu was taken aback. He had thought Ling Xiao gambled for greater profit and power, but he hadn't expected that it involved Brother Whistle.

"Do I have a grudge against you?" Brother Whistle was stunned and asked angrily.

Ling Xiao glared at Brother Whistle, his eyes brimming with hatred, "You ask if I have a grudge against you? Between us is a feud that cannot be shared under heaven!"

Brother Whistle stepped forward and shouted, "Ling Xiao, make yourself clear!"

Ling Xiao said coldly, "I think Brother Whistle must have a rich man's forgetfulness. Have you really forgotten Ling Guodong from eighteen years ago?"

Brother Whistle was startled, Ling Guodong, eighteen years ago? The visage of a sleazy and greedy middle-aged man appeared before him.

"You are... you are the son of that gambler Ling Guodong? How is this possible!" Brother Whistle remembered, of course, what affected him most was Ling Guodong's wife, that resolute woman who had jumped off the building after being humiliated!

Ling Xiao said coldly, "Now do you know the hatred between us? I searched for you for eighteen years, and finally, Imperial Heaven didn't fail the painstaking people, heaven actually brought you in front of me, can I let go of this opportunity?"

As he spoke, Ling Xiao said with a mocking tone, "Ying Junshi, I can now give you two options. First, you kill Brother Whistle for me, and I can forgive and spare you. Second, you fight a desperate battle, and we can annihilate you just the same. Choose for yourself!"

Brother Whistle was somewhat panicked after hearing this, "Junshi, I..."

Ying Changyu waved his hand, "Brother Whistle, you have done a lot for the Taizi Club over the years, we all saw it, so don't worry, we would never strike our own people! If I did that, how would I be any different from a beast?"

After turning around, Ying Changyu, with Ling Xiao in tow, said admiringly, "Ling Xiao, I didn't expect someone your age to have already mastered the art of attacking the mind. Not bad, really not bad! To think that there is such talent within United Hearts Gang, if you join the Taizi Club now, not only can I forgive your past, but I can also offer you a deal of wealth, what do you think?"

"What a joke, truly a joke!" Ling Xiao laughed loudly, "Everyone says the strategist of the Taizi Club is clever as a demon, but in my view, that's all there is to it! Do you still not see the situation clearly?"

"I think the one who doesn't see the situation clearly is you," Ying Changyu said, "You have abandoned the foundation of United Hearts Gang to join Flame Hall, do you really think you will have any say? Like the threat just now, even if I killed Brother Whistle, what authority do you have to let me leave? In the eyes of the people at Flame Hall, you, Ling Xiao, are merely a tool to be used!"

Ling Xiao said coldly, "So what if I am a tool? As long as I can kill Brother Whistle, I am willing to pay everything!"

Ying Changyu shook his head gently, "It's a pity, such a person of deep sentiment should have become an important aide of the Crown Prince, but unfortunately... Brother Whistle, I'll hand him over to you later, see to it that you handle him, remember to leave no threats behind!"

Brother Whistle said coldly, "Junshi, rest assured, if you don't kill a snake completely, it can turn and bite you. This time I will eradicate the roots!"

Right after he spoke, Zhao He's body suddenly burst out with a fierce battle intent, pressing towards Ling Xiao's back.

"Interesting, the Taizi Club can even attract such remarkable people, indeed impressive!" Mu Xuan stepped out, sensing the evil Qi from Zhao He, and couldn't help but praise, "Art of the Living Dead, concealing all vitality, just to unleash the greatest strength in battle, I didn't expect anyone today could still reach such a level, truly impressive!"

"Ling Xiao, step back a bit, I'll meet this person!" Mu Xuan's eyes gleamed with fervent light.

Ling Xiao took a deep breath, glanced at Brother Whistle, and then stepped back several steps.

"Zhao He, this time there's no need to hold back, as long as you can kill him, I will make sure you get to revive your daughter!" Ying Changyu said indifferently all of a sudden, "This is your only chance, make sure you grasp it!"

Upon hearing Ying Changyu's words, Zhao He's battle intent grew even stronger, as if Ying Changyu's words completely ignited his fighting spirit!

Mu Xuan exhaled, his muscles gradually bulging, "Beast Mimicry Technique, Vajra Body!"
