Chapter 302: 【143】Under the deep water, I am immortal_3
In a Japanese courtyard, a small fire crackled under the stove on the table, burning a copper pot, and a fresh tea aroma wafted from it.
Sitting next to the small table were two people.
"Alliance Leader, why are you still inviting that Gang Qi Grandmaster who killed our Fukuroku Snake? If he dares to come, we can shoot him on Mount Fuji."
Takakawa Jun’ichiro, dressed in thick kimono, knelt on a cushion, holding a cup of tea, and asked.
"Jun’ichiro, your vision is too short. Is it because of your age, so you can’t see the big picture clearly?" The Heaven and Earth Alliance Leader held a teacup and smiled at the snow.
Takakawa Jun’ichiro frowned, somewhat puzzled.
"What’s most important for Heaven and Earth Alliance? Financial powers like you and experts like Fukuroku Snake and Bai Yongge." The Alliance Leader extended a hand and clenched it: "You are the spear and shield of the Heaven and Earth Alliance. Only by gathering your strength has the Alliance reached its current state.
Fukuroku Snake was killed because he was too weak. The weak cannot always follow the great cause of Heaven and Earth Alliance, and this Gang Qi Grandmaster is precisely the spear that the Alliance needs.
With his joining, dealing with the White Lotus Society will be even more successful."
Takakawa Jun’ichiro exclaimed in surprise: "Alliance Leader, do you want to recruit that man?"
"Why not? Talents of the world are for me to use; this is the path to the strength of Heaven and Earth Alliance." The Alliance Leader shook the teacup in his hand.
The hot tea instantly spilled out, and as the Alliance Leader flicked his hand, all the hot water splashed outward.
At the moment the water was about to hit the ground, all the hot water exploded into large clouds of white mist, immediately sweeping up the snow on the ground.
When the white mist dissipated, the snow on the ground froze into ice, revealing the muddy ground under the snow, leaving only the pure "Heaven and Earth" characters formed from pressed white snow.
"As for me to use, I naturally offer courtesy; if you insist on being an enemy of the Heaven and Earth Alliance, I will show no mercy." The Alliance Leader looked at the "Heaven and Earth" characters and said proudly.
This magical technique left Takakawa Jun’ichiro dumbfounded, unable to speak for a moment.
He only knew the Alliance Leader’s martial arts were peerless but did not expect it had reached almost Immortal-level.
No wonder he had the arrogance to invite Wang Longhu; he was confidently planning to recruit Wang Longhu into the Heaven and Earth Alliance, not worried in the least about Wang Longhu daring to refuse his proposal.
Because this person’s strength is already unfathomable, few in the world could match him.
"Alliance Leader, rest assured, I will set the highest standard national banquet on Mount Fuji then, not to lose face for Heaven and Earth Alliance." Takakawa Jun’ichiro was stunned for a moment before he took a sip of hot tea and respectfully said.
...
Chinatown Martial Arts School.
The bustling street had tourists coming and going, seemingly untouched by the incident that occurred the previous night.
In fact, aside from the Chinatown Martial Arts School, most businesses on this street did not even know the incident happened.
A pure white Rolls-Royce slowly stopped outside the Chinatown Martial Arts School.
A person swiftly ran from the passenger seat to the back and opened the door, where a young man in a white suit stepped out.
He had a pale face without the slightest hint of blood, looking frail and weak, like a sickly figure, making it hard for anyone to believe this was one of the two kings of the Heaven and Earth Alliance.
White King, Bai Yongge.
Bai Yongge coughed, holding a gilded invitation, and walked into the Chinatown Martial Arts School.
Upon entering, there he saw Ah Hui and Cai Liang chatting in the courtyard.
Both were slightly taken aback upon seeing Bai Yongge. As members of the operation team, they had memorized the photos and profiles of high-ranking members of the Heaven and Earth Alliance.
How could they not recognize that the young man before them was Bai Yongge?
"Excuse me, are the experts who killed Fukuroku Snake here?" Bai Yongge asked with a friendly smile.
Ah Hui was suddenly overtaken with goosebumps, his hair standing on end, and jumped right out of his chair.
Though Bai Yongge made no big moves, Ah Hui felt an imminent sense of mortal danger enveloping his whole body.
As a Martial Artist, he couldn’t control his subconscious reaction and became passively defensive.
"What do you want?" Cai Liang asked nervously.
Given their proximity, if Bai Yongge wished, he could take Cai Liang’s life in the blink of an eye.
"Our Alliance Leader wishes to invite him. Not many experts are left in the world. Fukuroku Snake being the tenth, it’s indeed a pity he died by another’s hand.
Yet, compared to the death of an expert, the emergence of a stronger expert brings even more joy. Experts cherish other experts, hoping this Grandmaster can honor us with his presence."
Bai Yongge smiled as he threw the invitation. Though it looked like paper, it seemed as sharp as a blade, directly embedding into the stone table in front of Cai Liang.
Seeing it made Cai Liang’s heart sink, filled with panic.
If it could be embedded into the stone table, what if it were his neck? Wouldn’t he be beheaded at the scene?
"An invitation? Would the Heaven and Earth Alliance be so kind? It might not be a Hongmen banquet," Ah Hui frowned.
"Believe or not, that’s up to you. I only know the Alliance Leader rarely hosts banquets. If you reject his invitation, the consequences are unknown, and you might not leave Japan Island alive. Be wise."
Bai Yongge turned and left.
Cai Liang hurriedly got up to find Lin Zhengzong and Luo Gang to report the invitation’s matter to the two Huajin Grandmasters.
Wang Longhu wasn’t at the martial arts school at that time, so only those two could make decisions.
