Rebirth of the Peak Young Master
Chapter 1385: Upgrading Equipment
"Principal, we don’t understand your evaluation of Brother Guangrong!" a Xia Country official looked puzzled at the resumes of Qin Xian and Jiang Guangrong stating "Hippo".
Qin Xianhe laughed and said: "Old Zhang, let me ask you, is a hippo dangerous?"
Officer Zhang thought for a moment, nodded: "Hippos are definitely dangerous. Their teeth are long, and their bite force is astounding. They are powerful beasts. But we can use other animals to describe Jiang Guangrong’s danger, like lions, tigers, and bears."
Qin Xianhe stood up, slowly walked to the window. Someone sighed deeply, and he said: "The danger of a hippo has another very important reason. Normally, you can’t see a hippo’s large tusks. You can only see them when they are attacking you. But by then, it’s too late. Moreover, hippos are usually docile. Of course, when they’re attacking you, you don’t find them so innocent. After more than a year of training, this boy Jiang Guangrong, I think has become a hippo. He usually smiles warmly, with no trace of harm on his face for humans and animals. Once someone is impatiently waiting for that person, he will bite without mercy..."
Officer Zhang nodded thoughtfully.
On the following night, Jiang Guangrong and Zheng Xueyun returned to Xiangyang City. To celebrate Jiang Guangrong’s successful return from the suicide squad, the core members of the Xingwu Gang gathered in a bar, and everyone was very excited.
Jiang Guangrong embraced everyone from Xingwu Gang. Although previously, Jiang Guangrong never saw Xingwu Gang as his home, after joining the suicide squad, he realized how insignificant an individual is, and how strong a group can be. If he wanted to achieve something, relying solely on himself wouldn’t reach that goal, and he had already stepped into the underground path, with no chance of turning back. Thinking of this, Jiang Guangrong let go. This was the first time Jiang Guangrong considered Xingwu Gang as his big family.
After drinking a small glass of beer with everyone, Jiang Guangrong carried a beer glass to sit in the corner, quietly watching people dance and chat in the center of the bar. A slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Fantastic, genius, graduated from the Death Camp in just three months!" a voice came from the next table.
Jiang Guangrong looked over in surprise. The speaker was Li Mubai. Zhang Xianhai always stood next to Li Mubai. Jiang Guangrong sometimes even wondered if there was some fundamental relationship between the two, or why they could be inseparable? Additionally, Li Mubai and Zhang Xianhai, Jiang Guangrong was more and more afraid of them. This fear was different from the one Miyamoto Keiko and Tian Jue brought him. Miyamoto Keiko and Tian Jue brought him a tangible fear, very overbearing, easily felt. But Li Mubai and Zhang Xianhai were different. The fear Jiang Guangrong felt from them was a very subtle fear.
And Li Mubai’s news also sounded quite clever. If these two could truly be self-serving, willingly serve them, then with Miyamoto Keiko and Tian Jue, two skills and two powers, great success can be achieved!
Jiang Guangrong laughed: "Ah, so it’s Brother Mubai and Brother Xianhai. Who am I? Turns out they are brothers. A day has passed like three autumns. We haven’t met for almost a millennium, and I miss you to death!"
"Haha." Li Mubai’s face always had a subtle smile, "Brother’s glory is critical. I admire what Brother Guangrong did in the suicide squad! But Mo Bai still doesn’t understand, Miyamoto Keiko is a cold-blooded assassin. He has over 600 experts in the world. His power is remarkably significant. How did Brother Guangrong deal with Miyamoto Keiko?"
Jiang Guangrong laughed, showing a mischievous smile only a man could understand: "Hey, with women, what else can men do with women, right?"
Li Mubai smiled, looked at Jiang Guangrong deeply: "Brother Guangrong has become more introverted than before!"
"People always change. If you’re too clever, you’ll always be provoked by someone or something!"
"Hahaha, Brother Guangrong speaks the truth. When I was young, I felt combative, persecuted by bad people! Okay, enough about this. What’s your next plan, Brother Guangrong?"
Jiang Guangrong suddenly recalled what Li Mubai previously said and asked curiously: "Brother Mubai also knows about the Holy Dragon Order? Brother Mubai knows the secrets of the Divine Dragon Sect?"
Zhang Xianhai, who had always been smiling without speaking, suddenly said: "Holy Dragon Order?" Haha, I’ve known this secret since I was four."
Jiang Guangrong looked at Zhang Xianhai in shock: "No? For real? Why didn’t you tell the relevant authorities?"
Li Mubai said meaningfully: "The treasures of the Divine Dragon Sect are saved for Brother Guangrong!"
"For me?"
"Yes! Firstly, the treasures of the Divine Dragon Sect aren’t ready to be taken out yet, because the time isn’t ripe, and your current strength cannot guard it. Secondly, everyone will face difficulties.
Upon hearing Li Mubai’s words, Jiang Guangrong widened his eyes. He knew the secret of the Divine Dragon Ridge that had troubled the Northwest Region for years. Is there anything in the world Li Mubai and Zhang Xianhai don’t know? These two are truly terrifying!
Li Mubai seemed to know Jiang Guangrong’s thoughts, smiling and explaining: "It’s because Black Brother’s ancestor participated in the burial of the treasure and accidentally knew the secrets of the Divine Dragon Sect. Of course, they also knew the mysterious things within the treasure, and how to use the Dragon Order to open the treasure."
Jiang Guangrong nodded questioningly.
Li Mubai asked again: "Brother Guangrong, what’s your next step?"
Jiang Guangrong thought for a while and asked: "Who are you? Why me?"
Li Mubai used his right hand to gently stroke his lower lip, thought for a while, and replied: "I told you, I’m from the Ghost Valley School. I have a brother and a sister. Perhaps Mu Xiu was ruined by Lin Feng. My junior brother always put up with things growing up. He finally found an opportunity, used my trust, pushed me out of the Ghost Valley School, and I got engaged to him, my sister felt he’s stronger, married him. She was expelled from the Ghost Valley Sect for several years. I’ve always wanted to find some ordinary people to help him achieve something, to defeat my junior brother. Unfortunately, those sought before were all bad at the start, failed. But you, you successfully passed the test of the suicide squad, you’re the most suitable!"
Jiang Guangrong felt a bit ignorant.
Zhang Xianhai explained: "It’s simple. You think of it as a large online game. Brother Mubai and his junior brother are currency players from China. To prove that the junior brother’s account is a junk account, Brother Mubai wants to build a small account. He hopes this small account will eventually defeat his junior brother’s account. To get a small account, you need to brush dungeons and level up. But the small account brought by Brother Mubai couldn’t even play the simplest dungeon before, but you’re the only one who has passed several dungeons! So, as long as your equipment’s combat power increases, beating Brother Mubai’s junior brother, you can achieve the title of War God across the entire region. With such high combat power in your equipment, are you afraid of us doing anything to you?"
"Uh..." "How many small accounts did you train before?" Jiang asked.
"Brother Mubai seems to have only thirty or so small accounts?"
"Only thirty?" Jiang Guangrong was speechless.
Li Mubai and Zhang Xianhai laughed indifferently.
"Brother Mubai, where is your junior brother Shengjie?"
"Junior brother? He’s called Su Yifeng. Few might know his name. He is the top master of the Northeast Black Dragon Gang. Black Dragon Gang leader Nangong values him a lot. He is very obedient in various things. With his help, Nangong completely consolidated his absolute control over the Black Dragon Gang. In recent years, he has reached out to the Northwest Region of China. The Crocodile Gang in Xia Country’s Northwest is compressed by the Black Dragon Gang within a small area, and today’s Black Dragon Gang has even become the first underground group in Xia Country.
