Chapter 49: Chapter 48 Tang San's Conditions

The Tiger-faced Man nodded and said, "Of course, I know. But in these recent decades, have you ever heard of a member of the Redemption Organization who was caught and caused others to be implicated?"Wang Yanfeng was taken aback; his knowledge of the Redemption Organization was actually quite limited.

"Guigui is one of our people. Through many years of development, the Redemption Organization has established its own strict rules. Each organization member's identity and mission are carefully arranged to ensure the safety of the members. True, we do have an Assassination Department, but that's not the only part. We also have a fully-fledged Intelligence Organization. The bloodline and beliefs of Humans bring us together. It's not ruled out that some may turn to the Monsters after awakening the Demon God Transformation Ability and acknowledge them as their masters. But the vast majority choose to remain Human, because we look like Humans on the outside and wouldn't really be accepted by Monsters or Spirit Monsters."

Wang Yanfeng took a deep breath and asked, "What would you need me to do if I joined you?"

The Tiger-faced Man said, "There are two main reasons I'm here this time. First is to hope that you would join us. You wouldn't need to do much, just continue to manage our vassals here and try to expand their numbers as much as possible. Teach them enlightenment and instill some of our ideology in them. This shouldn't be difficult for you, as you have always been doing this."

Wang Yanfeng let out a sigh of relief and nodded his head.

"And the second reason?"

The Tiger-faced Man said, "I heard from Guigui that you have mentored a very exceptional disciple. This child has achieved Fourth Stage strength at a young age and the organization has decided he can be cultivated as a key talent; I'm here to take him with me."

Wang Yanfeng's heart tightened, "Are you talking about Tang San?" He couldn't help but silently blame his younger sister; Aunt Gui had previously not revealed anything to him.

"He's still young and hasn't even acquired the status of a vassal yet..." Wang Yanfeng said.

The Tiger-faced Man waved his hand and responded, "You don't need to worry about that. The organization will handle it. Moreover, whether he can be fully cultivated by the organization still depends on his own talent. That's why I need to test him first."

Wang Yanfeng asked in a grave tone, "What if I don't agree to join you?"

The Tiger-faced Man answered, "That's alright. Given the sibling relationship between you and Aunt Gui, and considering that betraying us wouldn't benefit you in any way, I believe you will still keep our secrets. But as for the child, if I confirm he has enough potential, I will still take him away."

"How are you going to test him?" Just then, a somewhat childish voice rang out. In the next moment, a figure had nimbly entered the room and closed the window behind him. It was Tang San.

Seeing Tang San enter through the window, the Tiger-faced Man instinctively raised his hand, but after hearing his words, he paused and a flash of surprise crossed his eyes. Before Tang San had entered, he truly hadn't sensed his presence. How well could this child, who appeared no more than eight or nine years old, hide? And the fact that he had detected his coming meant that he was very perceptive too.

"Tang San, come here," Wang Yanfeng immediately beckoned to him.

Tang San approached Wang Yanfeng and Qiu Jing, and the Tiger-faced Man didn't try to stop him, instead, he gazed at him intently, sizing him up.

"The test is simple, actual combat. If you can last one minute against me, you'll pass," said the Tiger-faced Man with a smile.

For some reason, when he looked into Tang San's eyes, those clear yet restrained eyes stirred something within him, giving him a feeling that this child would surely bring him surprises.

Tang San said, "I can join you, but I have a condition."

"Oh?" the Tiger-faced Man looked at him with interest; Tang San's tone didn't seem like that of a child. "What condition? You haven't even passed my test yet, but you seem very confident."

Tang San didn't respond to his skepticism, simply stating his condition, "I hope that your training for me would take place in Jiali City and that I would have a secure identity in the open."

Listening to the conversation between the Tiger-faced Man and Wang Yanfeng deepened his understanding of the Redemption Organization by a few degrees. There was no doubt that this human organization itself was far from strong, and although their goals sounded lofty, the reality was incredibly challenging. However, the arrival of the Tiger-faced Man brought him an opportunity to leave this place sooner than expected. Otherwise, he would have to wait at least more than a year to resolve his vassal status before he could leave.

Being able to go to Jiali City sooner meant he could be with her sooner, and for Tang San, nothing was more important than that.

The Tiger-faced Man said, "Your identity issue will naturally be resolved for you. But why must you go to Jiali City?"

Tang San was silent for a moment, seemingly a bit timid, then said, "Because Aunt Gui is there."

The Tiger-faced Man asked, "Then why are you willing to join us?"

Tang San suddenly looked up, without any hesitation, said, "Revenge! My mother…" He stopped there, pursing his lips, a glint of hatred flashing in his eyes.

These were not entirely feigned emotions; after all, he was only nine years old. He needed to exhibit some traits characteristic of a nine-year-old child to avoid suspicion. Moreover, seeking revenge, harboring hatred, these were feelings that came from the heart.

The Tiger-faced Man looked at him, sighed softly, and said, "Child, I support your desire for revenge. But remember, don't let hatred blind you. The Redemption Organization has much greater objectives."

Tang San nodded silently, "I know, but at least that is why I am joining the Redemption Organization now. If you can agree to my terms, I am willing to join."

The Tiger-faced Man nodded, "Okay, let's not talk about your conditions for now, you have to pass my test first. After the test, we can discuss the terms."

Tang San naturally understood that he wanted to assess his potential. In fact, the very first time he entered Jiali City, he had already realized that the Guigui he met in Jiali City was very likely problematic.

During his time in Jiali City, he had also seen many vassals, but very few had their own businesses.

The only two he observed, one was the Pretty Girl Milk Tea Shop run by the Pretty Girl mother and daughter, and the other was Guigui.

In his view, the Pretty Girl Milk Tea Shop presented the largest problem because it was situated at the very heart of Jiali City. Being able to run a shop there, without any Monsters causing trouble, already proved the uniqueness of this establishment.

As for Guigui, while not as extraordinary, having a small hotel in Jiali City that only had human vassals coming and going was questionable, wasn't it?

At the time, Tang San had already considered the possibility that Guigui might have ties to the Redemption Organization or that there was some supporting force behind her. Given that Guigui was Wang Yanfeng's younger sister, the likelihood of a significant force supporting her didn't seem large, therefore he leaned more towards the former speculation.

Hence, when Tang San participated in the Collision Contest, he had already taken into account the factor of Guigui, precisely to show his abilities to her.

The approach of Redemption Organization members today didn't surprise him at all, because this was exactly what he had hoped to see.

If he wanted to resolve his identity issue and head to Jiali City sooner, relying solely on Wang Yanfeng and himself would certainly not be easy, definitely not easy enough to gain entry without future troubles.

Although the Redemption Organization might not necessarily be strong, the fact that they had continued to exist, even as the sole human organization with the idea of resistance, meant they must have some depth. And this depth was exactly what Tang San needed right now.

Therefore, his participation in the Collision Contest was not impulsive, but a well-considered move that served multiple purposes.
