Disciple, please come down the mountain soon. Your senior sister can’t wait any longer.

After Pei Xinggao finished speaking, he knelt heavily on the ground, looking like he would not get up unless he agreed.

Therefore, Pei Xinggao, who was kneeling down, did not even notice the sinister expression and the cold and sarcastic smile on Pei Runnian's face.

The fish is hooked.

After hearing Chu Longtu's announcement from his servants that the casino in Hedong would open in three days, Pei Runnian, with his rich experience, instantly figured out the hidden sentence behind the news and the meaning of this sentence.

I am waiting for you.

These four simple words contain Chu Longtu's strong self-confidence and murderous intent.

After defeating the Pei family's plan for the first time and forcibly seizing a foothold, Chu Longtu did not stop at all and brazenly launched a second challenge to the Pei family.

And this time, all the forces in Hedong were directly notified, putting the Pei family on the fire, leaving no room for retreat.

Because if the Pei family does not dare to fight back against this upright and named challenge, then the Pei family will be completely labeled as a pillar of shame, becoming the laughing stock of the entire Hedong, and their status will plummet!

How can the Pei family, which doesn't even have the courage to face the provocation of its own family, have the qualifications to openly call itself the dominant force in Hedong?

Therefore, the Pei family must accept the challenge, and not only win, but also win beautifully. There is no room for negotiation.

Logically speaking, Pei Runnian should have been very angry about Chu Longtu's arrogant provocation, and should have immediately ordered people to disrupt Chu Longtu's plan to open the casino within three days.

But if Pei Runnian really did so and succeeded, he would certainly preserve the reputation of the Pei family, but he himself would not gain much benefit.

Don't forget, Pei Runnian's ultimate request to Chu Longtu is to find out the bottom line of Chu Longtu's strength, so that he can defeat all the heroes in the Martial Alliance Conference a month later and take back the position of Martial Alliance Deacon that the Pei family has lost for ten years!

Once this matter succeeds, it will truly maximize the benefits for the Pei family and Pei Runnian himself.

However, Pei Runnian was not very willing to use all resources on this matter at all costs just because the Chulongtu Casino would open within three days.

Because even if he really used all the resources of the Pei family to sabotage Chu Longtu's casino opening plan, Chu Longtu would not be able to open the casino and officially appear in front of the Hedong upper class. What would he lose?

Nothing was lost except reputation.

Dahe Villa is already in hand. Chu Longtu's bridgehead and base in Hedong are now impregnable. Even if Pei Runnian destroyed Chu Longtu's plan to open a casino, he had no way to take back Dahe Villa. This shows that Chu Longtu has already taken over the bridgehead into Hedong and has established a firm foothold.

Even if the Pei family wanted to drive them away, they probably couldn't.

In this way, even if Chu Longtu really cannot open the casino within three days, apart from the loss of face and being laughed at by others, he will not suffer any actual loss in profits.

The Pei family is different. If they successfully prevent the Chulongtu Casino from opening, everyone will think it is their due, and the family's reputation will at most increase a little, that's all.

However, if the Pei family failed to stop Chu Longtu from opening the casino, and really allowed Chu Longtu to complete all preparations within three days and open it on time three days later, then the Pei family's face would be completely trampled under Chu Longtu's feet.

And Pei Runnian, who was the one who directly gave the order, would become the sinner of the Pei family and be firmly placed on the pillar of shame!

What is more important is that there are many factions within the Pei family, and the family is almost divided. The other branches all have varying degrees of dissatisfaction with Pei Runnian.

If Pei Runnian failed to stop the opening of the Chulongtu Casino, thereby damaging the reputation of the Pei family, there is no doubt that the other families would immediately jump out and speak out, using Pei Runnian's fault to force him to abdicate. Having already missed the initiative, Pei Runnian might really be forced to abdicate, and that would be something Pei Runnian absolutely could not tolerate!

This branch of theirs has been the only choice for the head of the Pei family since the Pei family established itself in Hedong a hundred years ago.

As a result, in this generation, the Pei family was forced to step down as the head of the Pei family because of a mistake.

The prison was also shocked, and even more angry because of the offended majesty, and asked to send more manpower to capture Chu Longtu. However, it was discovered that Chu Longtu was actually a peak-level warrior the day after tomorrow. No one in the prison could rival him, only the soul-chasing judge who went out could rival him. , it would take him a month to come back after he went out to arrest people. The prison could only bear this sigh of relief and wait until the judge came back a month later, which happened to be the day when Chu Zhenfeng was executed. Chu Longtu was asked to come to rescue the people so that they could capture him.

When Chu Longtu's killing spree began, he was about to kill his way through the prison. A video suddenly popped up in the prison, threatening Chu Longtu with his father's life. Chu Longtu had no choice but to give up and uttered harsh words to destroy the prison. The prison party sneered. A month later His father is on death row. If he doesn't come, just wait to collect his father's body. He's obviously setting a trap for Chu Longtu. Don't be afraid that he won't come.

After Chu Longtu left, they mobilized manpower to prepare for war. At the same time, news came from the dragnet. Based on Chu Longtu's discovery, they changed their mind and focused on investigating the newcomers who had risen in Jiangdong City in the past ten years, and found another wanted criminal (and The other two lines intersect (for Chu Longtu to pretend to be a slap in the face), they were all confidants from his father's or mother's family. The reason why they were wanted was because of their parents, but they were all living well in Jiangdong City, working in different walks of life. All walks of life were under the protection of others, which completely aroused Chu Longtu's suspicion.

These people are wanted but can live well in Jiangdong City, which shows that this person's sphere of influence is in Jiangdong City, only within his control, and he also has great influence in the prison, even the three major Even the judge can't do it. Only the warden has such power and can protect these people. But why does the warden want these people and protect them at the same time?

The decisive joy was that after Chu Longtu’s investigation, he found that the funds or connections of these people when they started their business were all related to the mother’s natal family, that is, the Xiao family. All the clues pointed to one person, the only descendant of the Xiao family, his uncle!

After finding his uncle for a showdown, his uncle confessed and told the truth about the past. It was Changfang who was responsible for it. Relying on those treasures from back then, Changfang achieved great development and left Jiangdong City for a bigger city ( Foreshadowing of Volume 2).
