The best county magistrate

Chapter 282 The Higher You Fly, the Harder You Fall

In the next few days, the Baihua Society underwent a dramatic transformation, with most of its members becoming members of the Wucheng Bingmasi.

This made Zhao Yanli very happy.

With the identity granted by the court, it became easier for him to deal with some small gangs in South City.

Thanks to some clever operations planned by Chen Ergou, almost all the gangs, big and small, in South City were incorporated.

This changed Zhao Yanli's mentality. After all, the task of unifying South City had become easy to achieve.

He had a feeling of being invincible and he couldn't even listen to what the three sisters of the Hua family said.

Due to his impatience and stubbornness, he was finally stopped by the alliance between the Golden Phoenix Hall and the Red Fire Society.

Inside the dark room of the South City Casino.

Hua Qianxue was applying healing wine to Zhao Yanli.

"Hiss...it hurts so much!" Zhao Yanli rubbed his shoulders and cursed.

"I've already told you that the two families have united. Four Heavenly Realm masters are fighting against you alone. The fact that you only got this little injury is a blessing in disguise."

Hua Qianxue complained about him in a frustrated manner. Zhao Yanli knew he was in the wrong, so he naturally did not dare to refute anything. Instead, he took out his anger on Chen Ergou.

"It's all Agou's fault. He didn't check the situation on the other side and let us fall into an ambush."

As he said this, he threw a teacup in the direction of Chen Ergou.

With a clang, the teacup shattered, and the fragments cut him several times.

"Brother Zhao, this is not my fault...it's because they don't follow the moral code of martial arts..."

"Bah! When I recover from my injury, I will kill these bastards!"

Zhao Yanli yelled excitedly, which affected his wound and made him grimace in pain.

After Yang Xuanchen and Hua Qianying entered the dark room, they saw Zhao Yanli's injuries and emotions. They looked at each other and frowned.

Seeing that it was his teacher who came, Zhao Yanli blushed and lowered his head.

Yang Xuanchen's earnest teachings to him kept emerging in his mind, such as how he asked him to proceed step by step and not to be greedy for merit and act rashly, and also how he should never take risks if he could win by wits.

It's a pity that things have been going too smoothly these past few days, causing my mind to lose direction, which led to today's failure.

The dark room fell into silence and no one spoke.

After a while, Yang Xuanchen sighed softly and broke the silence first, "Is the injury serious?"

Zhao Yanli saw that he did not blame himself, but was concerned about his injuries.

He looked up at Yang Xuanchen and found that he was looking at his injuries with concern.

At this moment, a warm current surged in his heart, with guilt and gratitude intertwined.

He took a deep breath and calmed down, "Teacher, I'm sorry, I failed to live up to your high expectations."

Yang Xuanchen took a few steps closer and patted his shoulder gently, "The road of life is never smooth. You should look at success and failure with a normal heart."

Zhao Yanli's heart was filled with complex emotions. He felt unprecedented frustration and self-blame.

Yang Xuanchen's gentleness and understanding made his eyes slightly red, and he tried hard to hold back the tears.

"I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so impatient. I..." Zhao Yanli's voice was a little choked. He knew that he had disappointed everyone.

Yang Xuanchen shook his head gently, "Yan Li, failure is the mother of success."

"This failure, while painful, is also an opportunity to grow. The key is to learn from it and avoid making the same mistakes again."

"It's just two gangs, no big deal."

Hua Qianying also came over, her eyes full of worry and concern.

"Zilong, we all know that you are capable, but you can't be too confident. Let's take this incident as a lesson."

Zhao Yanli nodded. He knew that he needed to adjust his mindset and not be as blindly arrogant as before.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions.

At the same time, several leaders of the Golden Phoenix Hall and the Red Fire Society, along with their gang members, quietly surrounded the Baihua Society's gambling house under the cover of night.

"We have jointly beaten Zhao Yun and injured him. The only ones left in the Baihua Society are those three women. Tonight is a great opportunity to destroy them."

In the corner, a sinister voice revealed some of the plans of the two gangs tonight.

"Master Ji, the Baihua Society is now considered to be a member of the Wucheng Bingmasi, the government. Should we really go against them?" The speaker was Ah Huo from the Chihuo Society.

"Hmph, so what about the Five Cities Army? Don't you forget who is standing behind us?" The head of the Golden Phoenix Hall, known as Lord Ji, sneered, with a sly look in his eyes.

"However, we can't let our guard down. The three women in the Baihua Society are not simple people, especially Hua Qianxue. None of the veteran heavenly realm masters are ordinary people."

Ayun, another leader of the Red Fire Society, reminded.

Ji Ye nodded carefully and said in a cold voice: "We have four heavenly realms here, and I went to Xicheng to ask for a few helpers."

"We'll charge in when they arrive. The spies inside reported that there are only Hua Qianxue and Zhao Yun in the gambling house..."

Upon hearing this, several people immediately showed joy on their faces. If there were only two of them in the gambling house, they would have a great chance of success tonight.

Even if Hua Qianying and Hua Qianhui knew the news and rushed over, they would be afraid that the matter was already done and the situation was hopeless.

Not long after, a group of powerful-looking men in black came from the direction of West City. With a bird call from Ji Ye, they rushed into the gambling house.

Gang members from the Golden Phoenix Hall and the Red Fire Society poured into the gambling house like a tide, holding torches and weapons, looking very aggressive.

The sound of fighting soon spread outside the dark room.

"Boss! It's bad! People from the Golden Phoenix Hall and the Red Fire Society are coming to attack us. We have too few people and we can't hold on!" A gang member shouted anxiously inside.

The people in the dark room were all startled when they heard the sound.

Although Zhao Yanli was still injured, the warlike gene in his bones made him stand straight.

"Fuck him! Sister Hua, they are bullying us, just say something, are you going to do anything?"

Hua Qianxue didn't expect this boy to be so aggressive. Her fighting spirit was instantly ignited. "Zilong is right. Since they are bullying us, there is no reason for us not to fight."

"Qianying, Ergou, come with me!"

After saying this, she turned her head and glanced at Yang Xuanchen, "Yang Xuanchen, hide well and don't show your head..."

I'm ashamed, this is definitely looking down on people.

Yang Xuanchen complained in his heart, even if I don’t know martial arts, I am still much stronger than the ordinary gang members.

It's okay to beat a few gang members who are just there for show.

"Big sister, don't worry about me, let's go together!"

"It's already this critical moment, only cowards would hide, I'm also a good fighter."

As he spoke, he took out two brass knuckles from his bosom and put them on his hands amid everyone's suspicious looks.

"Kill them!" he shouted and rushed out of the dark room first.

Hua Qianxue and Hua Qianying naturally did not want to be left behind, and rushed out following Yang Xuanchen.

Although Zhao Yanli was injured, his fighting spirit was undiminished. He clenched his fists and took a big step forward.

Chen Ergou thought for a few breaths, his eyes revealing a bit of determination. He shouted loudly, walked out of the dark room and swung his fist at the nearest member of the hostile gang.

However, there were too many people from the two gangs breaking into the gambling house, and there were crowds everywhere, so several people had to face a lot of punches and kicks at the same time.

Fortunately, the gang fights in the capital city all adhered to the rule of not using weapons, so there was no swordplay.

Otherwise, Yang Xuanchen and his men would have been hacked to death by now.

However, the members of the two gangs would not talk to you about the code of conduct and martial ethics. The thugs would start to tear down the tables, chairs and benches as soon as they saw them.

At this moment, sticks and door panels were hitting the people from the Baihua Society, making them wail in pain.

Just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, hurried footsteps and horse hooves were heard outside the gambling house.

Then, Zhang Biao's rough voice rang out: "Zhang Yide is here, who dares to hurt my third brother? Take your life!"

Zhang Biao arrived with Hua Qianhui and a group of people from the Five Cities Army. Their arrival was like a gust of wind, instantly changing the situation on the battlefield.

When the members of the Golden Phoenix Hall and the Red Fire Society saw the reinforcements coming, they couldn't help but feel a little panic.

Ji Ye and Ah Huo looked at each other and were suddenly panicked. They didn't expect that the support from Baihua Society would come so quickly.

And who is this big man with a black face? Why have I never seen him before?

However, by now, Hua Qianxue was already injured, and unexpectedly, Hua Qianying was also injured.

If we give up now, all our efforts will be in vain.

"Master Ji, let's fight! Capture the leader first! Capture Hua Qianxue and Hua Qianying!"

Ah Huo's shouting made Ji Ye's eyes become determined, "Guys, take down those two women, go ahead!"
