Chapter 683: Chief Jiang is Incredible Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
"Big Sister Bell. The show is over. Do we go over to meet with Chief Jiang, or do we return?"
When Big Brother Heng returned, there was nothing more to see. Xiao Hong lifted her head to look at Big Sister Bell while Big Sister Bell laughed lightly and said, "There is no need to meet him. Let"s return."
Big Sister Bell then flew towards the distance with Xiao Hong while Jiang Yi also quickly flew across the thunder mountains with his men. He didn"t bother about all the people that were kneeling at the thunder mountains and simply looked indistinctly to the west.
He had killed Ba Dao and Chief Long and then used Big Brother Heng to establish his prowess!
His path to becoming chief was just starting, and he had to return to the city and go through the confrontations before knowing if he could truly stabilize his position in the Sky Thunder City. The four strongest chiefs had yet to reveal themselves, and it was still unknown if the Lu Clan would support him or not.
Jiang Yi didn"t respond when Big Brother Heng"s subordinates wanted to serve under him. Chief Long and Ba Dao had already been killed, and so his subordinates could be taken over. Big Brother Heng yet to perish, and if he was to take in his men like this, would it be crossing the boundary? He wasn"t sure if it would cause the other chiefs to be unhappy. Thus, he had to find out some information first and return to the city to see the responses.
"All of you, come over!"
He led the men and flew towards Sky Thunder City for a distance until the people at the thunder mountains could no longer see them. He then pointed at Ba Dao"s two original subordinates and spoke. These two individuals were the first to change their allegiance, and Jiang Yi had a deep impression of them.
The two of them had a disparity in height. The taller one was even taller than Jiang Yi, and he was very skinny as a bamboo pole. The shorter one was almost the same height as Chief Long and was a fatty. When the two of them stood together, it made them rather comical. They two of them were instantly delighted when Jiang Yi pointed at them. They groveled and flew over with cupped hands and greeted, "Chief Jiang."
Jiang Yi nodded in response and said, "What are your names?"
The short fatty grinned and said, "Chief Jiang, this one is called Niu Deng. He is my young cousin brother, Niu w.a.n.g."
"En!"
Jiang Yi"s eyes flickered as he said, "In the future, you two will be my Left and Right Protectors. The rest of the people will listen to your orders."
"Thank you, Chief Jiang!"
The two of them bowed and thanked ecstatically while the others looked at the two of them with jealousy and envy. However, no one dared to say a single word as the two of them were the first to switch their allegiance to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi"s eyes turned around as he transmitted a message: "Niu Deng. As for these people that were previously under Big Brother Heng, should I take down under me or not? If I am to take them in, would the other chiefs have any opinion? Would they say that I cross the boundary? And would the Lu Clan interfere?"
Niu Deng thought about it and replied seriously: "Chief Jiang, the Lu Clan will never interfere. Even if you kill all the people over at the thunder mountains, the Lu Clan will also not bother, as long as you don"t do anything in the city. As for the other chiefs? I am not very clear, but… Ba Dao and Chief Long seemed to have requested for Big Sister Bell make a move to deal with you, but she disregarded them."
Jiang Yi"s brows raised up as he transmitted a message: "Big Sister Bell? Tell me in detail, and also tell me about the other Chiefs."
"As you wish!"
Niu Deng transmitted his message in a respectful tone: "Among the Ten Chiefs in the city, Big Sister Bell is ranked no.1. She could easily suppress the previous nine chiefs in the city by herself. Chief Leng is ranked no.2, and he seems… to have a rather good relationship with Big Brother Heng? Chief Li is very amiable and wouldn"t go offend anyone. The ranked no.4, Big Brother Dong would never get involved with the disputes in the city. As long as he isn"t provoked, you could just ignore him. As for the other chiefs, Chief Jiang has already seen them. Previously, it was Ba Dao, Chief Long, Big Brother Heng, and those who went to request the favor from Big Sister Bell…"
Niu Deng transmitted his message for more than five minutes and had explained the situation in the city. He was very clever and didn"t dare to propose any ideas to Jiang Yi. He simply explained the things honestly and let Jiang Yi decide for himself.
Jiang Yi nodded slightly and looked at Big Brother Heng"s subordinates and spoke, "You will follow me back and shall go back to your homes after we return to the city. Wait there for my instructions."
"Yes, Chief Jiang"
The 16 of them replied in unison with agony revealed on their mouths as Jiang Yi didn"t say that he was going to take them in. Since he could bring them back, it meant something. Since they had already betrayed Big Brother Heng, they naturally wouldn"t continue following him. Otherwise, they might just die without knowing what happened. As for them to follow the other chiefs? Who would be willing to do such things to offend Big Brother Heng?
More than 30 individuals flew towards the city in a grandiose manner. One hour later, the city gates were in sight, and when Jiang Yi saw hundreds of people waiting by the city gates, his eyes flashed with a chill. Niu Deng quickly explained softly, "Chief Jiang, those are all Ba Dao and Chief Long"s men. They must be here to welcome you."
"Oh!"
Jiang Yi concealed his killing aura while he left everyone to fly forward. Before they even got near to the city gate, those few hundred individuals all knelt on a single knee and burst out with their greetings, "Chief Jiang!"
Jiang Yi swept a look at them and didn"t bother. His eyes looked over at the Lu Clan"s soldiers and saw that a few of them had curious expressions. The commander of the soldiers was looking at him with a cold and emotionless expression.
"Chief Jiang, that is Commander Lu Ren!"
Niu Deng transmitted a message to Jiang Yi and introduced that individual. Jiang Yi ignored the people that were kneeling and descended with the men behind him. From a distance, he cupped his hands towards the Lu Clan"s commander and greeted, "Greetings to Lord Commander. Jiang n.o.body gives his respects!"
"Ke-Ke!"
Lu Ren"s emotionless face let out a trace of a smile as he nodded lightly and said, "Chief Jiang is incredible. Remember to treat me to drinks later on."
"Hahaha!"
Jiang Yi laughed and walked over while speaking in a polite manner, "Lord Commander is teasing Jiang n.o.body. As for the drinks… as long as Your Honor has time, we can drink every single day."
"Alright!"
Lu Ren was very satisfied with Jiang Yi"s humble att.i.tude. He nodded and said, "Chief Jiang, please return to the city first. I am on duty and shall not chat with you."
Jiang Yi bowed with cupped hands and led the men inside while his heart was rather firm. The Lu Clan"s message was very obvious. As long as he didn"t stir up any trouble and give their Lu Clan respect, the Lu Clan would not meddle in his affairs.
Since the officials weren"t going to look for trouble, then Jiang Yi just had to go look for the four other chiefs. Big Brother Dong who was ranked no.4 always had a low-profile and wouldn"t be involved in the disputes in the city, and so he could be disregarded. If the top three chiefs were to affirm his position and not find any fault with him, he would be able to stay in the city peacefully.
"Chief Jiang!"
"Greetings to Chief Jiang!"
Once Jiang Yi entered the city, he encountered many people who greeted him with respect. Jiang Yi"s matter had already been made known through the city by Chief Ying and the others. It didn"t matter if Jiang Yi was going to take the position as chief; they didn"t dare to offend him. This person was a killer G.o.d who had killed more than a dozen Heaven Monarchs in a single day.
"Niu Deng and Niu w.a.n.g, stay behind. The rest of you can return."
Walking to the plaza in the city, Jiang Yi waved his hand while everyone bowed and dismissed themselves. Jiang Yi then left Niu Deng and Niu w.a.n.g while he took large strides back to his own residence.
When he arrived back at the small courtyard, Jiang Yi had a feeling as though he was still dreaming. The night when he left, he had already had the determination to face death as he a.s.sumed he wouldn"t have the chance to return. Who would have expected that in just three months, he returned to the city in a grandiose manner and came back to his little courtyard?
Niu Deng activated the barrier of the courtyard, cleaned up the place swiftly, bowed with cupped hands to Jiang Yi, and said, "Chief Jiang, please take a seat."
When Jiang Yi sat on the host"s seat, Niu Deng politely took out and served some fine wine to Jiang Yi from his ancient divine essence ring. Jiang Yi didn"t drink while his eyes were flickering with light. He pondered for a moment and asked, "Niu Deng, what needs to be done next?"
Niu Deng understood Jiang Yi"s meaning and had also been thinking about this matter on the way back. He replied, "Chief Jiang, I advise you to go visit Big Sister Bell first. As long as Big Sister Bell is willing to see you, things would be much easier. You should also pay a visit to Chief Leng and Chief Li as well. As long as the three of them approves of you, your chief"s position will be stable. Of course… you would also have to bribe the people at the Lu Clan as well."
"Alright!"
Jiang Yi nodded. Since Big Sister Bell and the others didn"t send anyone to chase after him, they were already giving him respect; and he ought to go and pay some respect to his seniors, too. He heard that the Big Sister Bell that he had yet to meet had the strength of a Heaven Monarch at the higher stages.
He always did things swiftly and decisively. Thus, he stood up and was about to walk out with Niu Deng and Niu w.a.n.g. Who knew that once they stepped out of the doors, there was an individual who ran over from the main street? He then wrapped his fist and yelled out, "Chief Jiang, Chief Leng invites you over to the Hundred Flower Inn for a chat."
