"Wait," a voice sounded from the crowd and a man of Long Yu's age, wearing black clothes and holding a folding fan in his hand, came over. With a more graceful manner than that of Long Yu, he waved his fan gently and wore a smile on his face, "Brother Long, wait a minute, please."
Long Yu frowned immediately after seeing him but soon he smiled. He raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "What? Do you Hong Gang intend to intervene in this business? Do you want to deal with matters within our Green Gang?"
The surrounding people were also stunned by the situation and they all guessed, "What is Zhang Yan's history? Why does the leader of Hong Gang, Hong Yuan take up the matter himself? He seems to speak for Zhang Yan. Interesting!"
"We are all outer court disciples, brother Long. Would you please let him go for the sake of good relationship between Green Gang and Hong Gang? " Hong Yuan said gently with a smile.
However, Long Yu frowned after hearing that and snorted, "It's not my fault to disregard your feelings. It's not only an internal affair within the Green Gang but also concerning our reputations. The deputy leader was badly beaten by him. If I don't teach him a lesson, how could the Green Gang secure its prestige in outer court?"
"Today I must declare, anyone dares to help the bastard, he is against the Green Gang and we swear to show no mercy to him." Long Yu spit out threats arrogantly with sharp eyes.
The words sound just fell, the disciples of Green Gang echoed, "No mercy, no mercy" For a while, a loud roar erupted, which shocked the surrounding bystanders that they all stepped back in case they should be involved in troubles.
Only one man didn't retreat. He seemed to be a year or two younger than Zhang Yan. He stood quietly in the crowd, but the surrounding people all tried to avoid him as if they were fearful of him. No one stood within one meter away from him. With great interest, he looked at Zhang Yan standing face with Long Yu fearlessly, "It looks fine. This guy has the guts."
Hearing that, Hong Yuan realized that Long Yu aimed to warn him against meddling into other people's business. However, he must save this boy even at the expense of offending the Green Gang.
Hong Yuan came to Zhang Yan and smile at Long Yu, "Brother Long, he is only a rookie, he was admitted to the outer court not so long ago and he knows nothing. Ignorance can be forgiven. I apologize to the Green Gang on behalf of him, then the Hong Gang will compensate you for this loss. What do you think?"
Long Yu became somewhat hesitated. It seemed that Hong Yuan resolved to help the bastard. The Hong Gang was smaller than the Green Gang, but its strength couldn't be underestimated. A real fight must cause destruction to both sides. If he gave up resorting to force, it would be deeply embarrassing for the Green Gang. The deputy leader was hit, just let it go? Then who were willing to join the Green Gang?
At the thought of it, Long Yu decided to keep his word. He had promised to hit the bastard, so today he would absolutely not let him go. When Long Yu was going to cast aside all considerations about Hong Yuan, Zhang Yan looked at Hong Yuan and frowned, "Who are you? Why should I listen to you? It's none of your business."
He had been to Qingyuan School not long ago and he was familiar with no one except Fatty who was holed up for cultivation. This man claimed to be a member of Hong Gang, but how was it possible for Zhang Yan to accept his help? Were pennies from the heaven? Moreover, in Zhang Yan's mind, the Hong Gang and the Green Gang must be birds of a feather. They were scums who bullied the weak and feared the strong.
Zhang Yan would never accept his help without reason and he was unable to return such favor. Long Yu was only at the fifth level of Xiantian Stage, so Zhang Yan didn't fear him at all. It was still hard to tell who would emerge victorious.
