Since its establishment, the Sanhe Gang has always been a tool for the Bai family to accumulate wealth.

 

At the beginning, the one in charge of leading the Sanhe Gang was Bai Qing's brother, Bai Changheng.

 

Whether it was Song Wang or Mei An, these people were all cultivated by Bai Changheng.

 

However, after Bai Qing's brother's death, the Sanhe Gang gradually became disobedient.

 

Song Wang's attitude became increasingly ambiguous, even openly going against the rules.

 

Bai Qing understood all of this in his heart, but he could only endure it until now before daring to make a move.

 

The reason for this was simply because of strength.

 

Song Wang's own strength was not weak, and in a sense, he was just slightly inferior to Bai Qing.

 

If Bai Qing's brother were still alive, he could easily suppress him.

 

But now...

 

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the doing of Young Master Yuan." 

 

Song Lao stood in front of Bai Qing, calmly analyzing, "In these past few years, with the death of Master Heng, Young Master Yuan has become more active."

 

"Of course, he is active."

 

A hint of mockery appeared in Bai Qing's eyes, "With his good daughter, he is indeed soaring now."

 

"Don't mention trying to win these followers around, even if he were to directly attack us within the clan, he may not dare."

 

"Forget about what they did before?"

 

Song Lao opened his mouth as if he thought of something, but stopped himself in the end.

 

"Alright."

 

Bai Qing shook her head, slapped the account book in front of her, and smiled directly, "I may not be able to provoke the forces of Bai Changyuan, but what gives Song Wang, an inner Qi grandmaster, the audacity to act this way?"

 

"Miss intends to directly kill Song Wang?"

 

A look of hesitation appeared on Song Lao's face.

 

"What, can't do it?"

 

Bai Qing got up from her original spot, stretched lazily, looking quite comfortable.

 

"Of course, it can be done."

 

Song Lao nodded, "With Miss's current strength, it should not be much of a problem to kill Song Wang."

 

"However, killing Song Wang is easy, but finding another person to take over as the leader of Sanhe Gang would be difficult."

 

Not just anyone can become the leader of a gang.

 

Killing Song Wang might be easy, but after that, the Sanhe Gang would probably fall apart.

 

There was no one under Bai Qing who could replace Song Wang.

 

A martial artist with at least an inner Qi grandmaster level was not easy to find in the Fengcheng County.

 

At least.

 

If the strength was lower than that, they would not be able to survive in the competition with other gangs, and in the end, they would not be able to achieve the original effect.

 

With the death of Song Wang, the new leader, if without this strength, would definitely attract the covetous eyes of others, and in the end, they would come forward and take a piece of meat from the Sanhe Gang.

 

By then, the Sanhe Gang would probably not be able to survive, let alone Bai Qing, it would be better to stay as it is now.

 

Just the name of the Bai family alone would not have any effect on those gangs.

 

After all, those gangs also had their own backgrounds and were no less inferior to the Bai family.

 

Unless Bai Qing was willing to stay in Fengcheng County for a long time, she would not be able to do anything about those gangs.

 

This was the reason why Song Wang was so confident.

 

Because to some extent, he was irreplaceable.

 

"Unfortunately, my brother's accident came too quickly."

 

Standing still, Bai Qing sighed to herself, lamenting like this.

 

Long ago, Bai Qing's brother saw through Song Wang's character and knew he was untrustworthy, but allowed him to develop the Sanhe Gang in Fengcheng County for a few years.

 

Originally planning to replace Song Wang after a few years, but it turned into the current situation.

 

"What a pity."

 

Bai Qing sighed, and then continued, "Even if we can't replace Song Wang, we have to do something, or it will be hard to say what will happen in the future."

 

"What about Liu Dao, I remember he had a problem."

 

She looked at Song Lao in front of her and asked.

 

Song Lao nodded, saying, "If nothing unexpected happens, he should be Young Master Yuan's man."

 

"The connection between Song Wang and Young Master Yuan is most likely being mediated by him."

 

"Mm."

 

Bai Qing nodded, not surprised, "Find an opportunity and get rid of him."

 

"Yes."

 

Song Lao nodded and added after some thought, "It may take some time."

 

"Get it done before leaving."

 

Bai Qing said casually, "If you can't find an opportunity, let it go."

 

Song Wang was not a fool.

 

During Bai Qing's time in Fengcheng County, he would definitely be very careful and would not leave any obvious flaws.

 

In such a situation, Liu Dao would also be very careful and might not leave any opportunities.

 

Bai Qing did not mind, she would seize the opportunity whenever it presented itself.

 

"Oh, what about Chen An?"

 

Standing still, Bai Qing seemed to suddenly think of something and asked, "How is his progress?"

 

"He has already mastered the Tiger Leopard Horizontal Training, but the details are still unclear."

 

Song Lao said, "However, judging from his usual behavior, his attitude is commendable, he is a diligent person."

 

"Good."

 

Bai Qing nodded, finally showing a smile, "With his proficiency in the Five Tigers Blade Technique, he dared to go to Mei An's place to rescue someone. Although he is a greenhorn, it's still commendable."

 

"He is a man of sentiment, if cultivated properly in the future, he can be of good use."

 

"It's a bit of a gain to discover such a person on this trip."

 

Bai Qing smiled, quite pleased with Chen An's evaluation.

 

At the moment, she was short of people under her command, with hardly anyone other than Song Lao to command.

 

For Bai Qing, Chen An was a good subordinate, and if nurtured properly, he could potentially replace Song Wang in the future.

 

She was about to continue speaking when her body suddenly stiffened, and her expression instantly became fierce.

 

"Who!"

 

A light shout, a short sword instantly shot out, carrying a strong internal energy, rushing towards the front.

 

With a bang, the short sword pierced through a wooden door and embedded itself in the back.

 

A muffled groan came from the dark place, clearly audible.

 

The next moment, Bai Qing appeared at that spot.

 

However, by this time, there was no figure present besides a faint trickle of blood.

 

Bai Qing furrowed her brows.

 

"Finally made a breakthrough!"

 

In her courtyard, Chen An was covered in sweat, his face showing some excitement.

 

In front of him, the inheritance of the Sea Sand Fist had appeared.

 

After days of hard training, he finally mastered this fist technique.

 

Name: Chen An

 

Attributes: Strength (3.2), Endurance (3.1), Spirit (2.4)

 

Source power: 18

 

Inheritance: Five Tigers Blade Technique, Tiger Leopard Horizontal Training, Sea Sand Fist

 

Projection: Charging

 

The familiar upgrade panel appeared before his eyes, looking clear.

 

"Would you like to upgrade?"

 

A line of subtitles appeared.

 

Without hesitation, Chen An selected "confirm."

 

Two points of source power were immediately deducted.

 

A warm flow surged through his body, rising from his heart, spreading throughout his body, and finally gathering in his fists.

 

Chen An observed the changes on his body.

 

As the Sea Sand Fist was upgraded, a visible callus appeared on his fists, followed by a gradual darkening of his skin, making it look dark.

 

He started to resemble those who had practiced the Sea Sand Fist before.

 

Of course, it was not very obvious.

 

This feature was not exclusive to the Sea Sand Fist; many martial arts would leave such marks on the fists, so it was not surprising.

 

That was why Chen An was confident in upgrading the Sea Sand Fist.

 

"I can still continue to upgrade."

 

Chen An looked at the remaining source power and chose to continue upgrading.

 

Boom!

 

A wave of heat surged from within him and exploded in an instant.

 

At this moment, a familiar feeling rushed into his body, much more intense than before.

 

Chen An's arms began to tremble, memories of his past training experiences flooded his mind, deepening his understanding of the Sea Sand Fist.

 

This feeling lasted for a breath or two before it stopped, gradually calming down.

 

Then, Chen An continued to gaze ahead.
