The moment he appeared, the crowd fell silent. Everyone turned their gaze towards the entrance, freezing mid-action.
The members of the Qing Long Gang were instantly dumbstruck. Intimidated by his imposing aura, they stood rooted to the spot, not daring to move a single inch.
“Master Gu!”
“It’s Master Gu!”
A man suddenly let out a loud cry of surprise. Then, he rushed out of the crowd and quickly dashed towards him. He respectfully bowed and declared loudly, “Master Gu! I don’t know what happened, but the Qing Long Gang suddenly brought a bunch of people here to cause a huge ruckus…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Gu Jinglian raised his eyebrows impatiently and fiercely kicked him to the side.
Even a man who had been fighting in the underground for years could not withstand his aggressive attack. He was sent flying for a few metres before heavily collapsing onto the ground and coughing up mouthfuls of blood.
“Useless trash.”
Gu Jinglian arrogantly reprimanded him. He strode towards him and kicked his shoulder again!
Grunting in pain, the man slumped against the floor. His face was drenched in cold sweat.
Gu Jinglian strolled towards him, his leather boots mercilessly stomping over his chest.
As the man coughed, he raised his head and met Gu Jinglian’s devilish gaze. He looked like a vicious and ruthless phantom hidden in the night, with his eyes narrowed in menace.
The man was so frightened that he immediately got up and knelt on the ground, trembling all over.
“I told you, I don’t keep trash with me.”
Gu Jinglian spat coldly. A flash of disdain appeared in gaze, sparkling dangerously in his amber eyes.
He slowly lifted his sharp gaze and scanned the crowd in front of him. Sounding like a bloodthirsty demon, he warned, “If you dare to cause trouble here, don’t even think about walking out alive.”
With that, he raised his chin and shot his subordinates a look. The door behind him became locked, while the group of men in black whipped out their guns simultaneously and aimed them at the Qing Long Gang.
At the same time, the crowd of gamblers gathered around the second floor’s railing gasped!
Gu Jinglian looked up expressionlessly. He took out a pistol from his belt and aimed it at the crowd. He pursed his lips impatiently. “I’ll shoot anyone who makes a single sound!”
His fair skin, coupled with his arched eyebrows and charming eyes gave him a devilish aura.
Although his facial features were so exquisite and his face was as chiseled as a sculptured deity, his piercing and cold glare gave him a naturally dignified and cold aura.
The crowd of gamblers gasped and retreated.
On the opposite side, the men from the Qing Long Gang parted, revealing a path.
A burly man slowly walked up to Gu Jinglian.
This man was the leader of the Qing Long Gang, Long Si.
The Long Clan was the most powerful mafia family in the capital. They used to reign the underground mafia scene in the past, notorious for its domineering and intimidating presence.
At that time, the Long Clan stood shoulder to shoulder with the Gu Clan, both equally feared by the other families. They once enjoyed a period of great glory.
However, ever since the young patriarch of the Long Clan, Long Er, passed away three years ago, the clan fell into decline. Their power and status decreased significantly, with the entire clan plummeting to the lowest rungs of the hierarchy.
Hence, for the past two years, the Long Clan had been split up multiple times as everyone turned against one another.
