The Hall Master of the Fire Hall Ning Kang, the Hall Master of the Thunder Hall Wang Tiansheng, the Grand Worship Niu Zidong, the Second Worship Xu Zhaoming, and some elders occupy important positions within the gang.
Zhao Honglie’s face was extremely calm.
"So you’re telling me Wang Chong has vanished into thin air?"
Everyone couldn’t help but shiver, and they all lowered their heads.
Bang!
Zhao Honglie slammed his palm on the rosewood pear flower table, and saw the shattered wood chips flying, splattering on the heads and faces of everyone, but the crowd bowed their heads even lower, not daring to make any movements, everyone knew this was when the Gang Leader’s anger was at its peak.
"Useless! A bunch of useless fools!"
Zhao Honglie’s calm face suddenly twisted, his eyes reddened, like a fierce ghost wanting to devour people.
"Find him! Keep looking! Alive, I need to see the person; dead, I need to see the corpse!"
He had pinned great hopes on Wang Chong.
If he could join the Flame Worship Cult, there would be hope to resist the Red Cloud Guard. With so many counties under the Red Cloud Prefecture’s jurisdiction, disputes were everywhere, making it impossible to expend too much energy on Canghe County. By then he could slowly drag on to find a way to survive.
And now.
Wang Chong was gone.
Contact with the Flame Worship Cult was lost, meaning that path was cut off.
"Wang Chong took my Heart Inquiry Pill, without an antidote for half a month, he will die from intestinal rot, he couldn’t have escaped, unless... someone killed him!"
Thinking of this, Zhao Honglie felt a sense of regret.
Originally, he had not ruled out having someone accompany Wang Chong, but Wang Chong knew that this contact method was his lifeline, and he insisted on acting alone.
Zhao Honglie thought that with Wang Chong’s Blood Refining Realm Small Success cultivation, traveling back and forth from the county to the base should not be a big problem, so he agreed, only giving him the Heart Inquiry Pill, but didn’t expect a big issue would arise at a critical moment.
"Could it be Liu Yuanhu?"
"No, impossible! If he knew about the Flame Worship Cult, he wouldn’t possibly remain this quiet... Who could it be..."
Zhao Honglie felt extremely agitated.
First, Han Lu was killed, and then Wang Chong, he always felt there was an invisible hand in the dark quietly targeting him.
He looked coldly at the high-ranking members within the gang, at this time not everyone knew why the Gang Leader would be angry over a trivial Wang Chong, only a few people understood the truth, everyone respectfully took the order, preparing to thoroughly investigate.
"Old Xu, you stay."
The Second Worship felt a tightness in his heart, while the others left sensibly.
"Gang Leader, what are your instructions?"
The Second Worship Xu Zhaoming was a very thin middle-aged man with sunken cheeks, he asked respectfully.
Zhao Honglie took a deep breath and said:
"From today on, you and Leng Yun will be responsible for crafting heavy armor, at all costs, I want to see three hundred suits of heavy armor by early autumn this year!"
From the beginning, Zhao Honglie had prepared two plans.
On one hand, he tried to contact the Flame Worship Cult, if successful in gaining support from over there, then he could engage in a protracted battle with Liu Yuanhu;
On the other hand, he ordered the forging of heavy armor, if the path with the Flame Worship Cult proved unfeasible, then it would be a do-or-die battle to confront Red Cloud Guard before they arrived!
Each piece of heavy armor costs hundreds of silver taels, just these three hundred would cost over a hundred thousand taels of silver.
The Black Sand Gang’s three hundred Martial Artists, if supplemented with three hundred suits of heavy armor, would absolutely see their combat power soar several times over!
There is a high hope of suppressing Liu Yuanhu.
