Chapter 42: Someone's Coming Up for a Solo Confrontation (Seeking Bookmarks)

  When Yang Xiao Tian received the materials from Tan Hai Tao's hands and was surprised to find that the guy who had been making him apprehensive and secretly worried, turned out to be an orphan with no parents or background. The big stone in his heart suddenly fell to the ground, and he no longer had any worries.

  "Big brother, you can finally rest assured now, right? Now you can avenge me, right?" Judging from Yang Xiao Tian's own experience, this group of people were all just ordinary civilians with no background. The only one who had special forces experience was Zhang Fu Han, but he was even expelled from the military for fighting and didn't even get any professional settlement fees. If he had a good background, would he be struggling so much in Wei Dong County? It's said that until now, he hasn't even found a wife!

  "Hmm, it seems that these guys are just relatively good at fighting, but can you fight better than the Eight Great Golden Guardians and the Thirteen Taibao under my command?" Tan Haitao nodded with a somewhat self-satisfied tone.

  "Big brother, I heard their beef noodle business is doing well. Why don't we take over their beef noodle shop this time and increase our income for the Black Tiger Gang?" Yang Xi Tian tried his best to entice Tan Hai Tao, fearing that he wouldn't take it seriously enough.

  Aren't you talking nonsense? If I didn't want to snatch their beef noodle shop, I really wouldn't have planned to fight them. Do you really think I'll avenge you? Your decade-long rivers and lakes experience is truly in vain!

  Tan Haitao was scolding Yang Xiaotian in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be a noble and righteous person, saying to Yang Xiaotian:

  "The beef noodle shops must be seized, and the vengeance of my brother's death must be avenged! This time, I'll have the Eight Great Warriors lead the team, one by one, we'll take over those beef noodle shops, and at the same time, we'll thoroughly deal with those guys from the Wolf Gang!"

  At this time, Yang Xiao Tian thought to himself, no matter whether you can take over those few beef noodle shops or not, as long as you clash with them, then this matter will inevitably be linked to your Black Tiger Gang. As long as I can drag you into the water and shift that female demon star's attention onto your Black Tiger Gang, my life will be saved. Then in the remaining time, it'll be up to me to slowly play with you until I control your entire Black Tiger Gang.

  "Thank you big brother, your kindness to me is like that of a reborn father and mother. Even if I were to be an ox or a horse, and work tirelessly from dawn till dusk, it would still be difficult for me to repay..."

  In Yang Xiao Tian's repeated flattery, Tan Hai Tao self-satisfiedly gathered his eight powerful subordinates and gave them the order to forcibly take over Zhang Ji Beef Noodle Restaurant, emphasizing that they must beat those fellows inside Zhang Ji Beef Noodle Restaurant half to death.

  The eight great golden men of the Black Tiger Gang were formed by eight notorious gangsters in Weidong County, and their names and naming methods for members of the Ten Years Association are somewhat similar. They are Liu Lao Da, Zhang Lao Er, Li Lao San, Cao Lao Si, Wang Lao Wu, Yang Lao Liu, Han Lao Qi, and Wei Lao Ba. Although their names are similar, in terms of strength and status, they are fundamentally not on the same level. However, in this small Weidong County town, they have a significant influence, especially Wang Lao Wu, whose notorious reputation in Weidong County has even reached the point where it can stop children from crying at night!

  Now the eight powerful men are following their leader Tan Haitao's instructions, bringing a group of younger brothers, and heading to Zhang's beef noodle restaurant on East Main Street, which just opened a few days ago.

  "I'm saying, Lidge is really something. Why can't we just follow him around all the time? He has to say things like 'the new store is opening on this side' and 'I'm afraid someone will come to make trouble', so he makes us two stay here guarding all day long. It's really boring!"

  "Exactly, I really hope someone comes over to stir up trouble. Then we can try out the new moves we learned from Li Ge with a clear conscience! Practicing with our own brothers is not as enjoyable as fighting against enemies! If some blind fools really come over to cause trouble, that would be great!"

  Just as the eight greats of the Black Tiger Gang were heading towards the newly opened Zhang's Beef Noodle Restaurant on East Main Street, Xiong Lang was elegantly performing the noodle-making art he learned from Chen Li, while complaining about Chen Li's unfair treatment of the two of them. Meng Lang, having eaten his fill and with nothing to do, fantasized that someone would come looking for trouble, so he could try out some new moves he had learned from Chen Li in recent days. However, their notorious reputation outside made it unlikely that any ordinary citizen in Wei Dong County would dare to look for trouble with them. If not for the delicious and affordable beef noodles, just having the two of them standing there would likely scare away half the customers.

  "Here he comes! Look who's here! The troublemaker has finally arrived!"

  Just as the two wolves were bragging and boasting, the bored wolf suddenly spotted the Eight Great Golden Warriors walking towards them with a mighty aura. At this moment, even if they used their buttocks to think, they could guess that they must be coming here, but the wolf was not surprised or frightened, instead, he was excited, pointing at the approaching people and shouting loudly at the fierce wolf;

  "Hey! It's about damn time, finally these bastards have arrived!" The fierce wolf immediately threw the dough in his hand onto the counter and no longer cared if there were still customers inside the noodle shop. He stood shoulder to shoulder with the ferocious wolf at the entrance of the road, waiting for trouble to come knocking.

  "A good dog does not block the way; blocking the way is not a good dog! What are you two doing, blocking our path?"

  He and the two wolves were all local rascals in Weidong County, so naturally the Eight Great Golden Men of the Black Tiger Gang knew them. As soon as they met, the gunpowder smell between them was very strong.

  "Wang Laowu, don't be so arrogant. The people of Wei Dong County are afraid of you because you're inhumane and unreasonable. But don't think for a moment that Old Man Meng will be afraid of you!"

  In the face of Wang Lao Wu's provocation, one of the most arrogant among the Eight Great Masters, if this were in the past, they might have still weighed their options. However, the current Fierce Wolf would never put such trash in his eyes and naturally gave them a ruthless counterattack.

  "Hey, I heard you two donkeys have recognized a little kid as your boss! What are you doing here causing trouble again? If you really can't make it, come to our Black Tiger Gang and be my underling!" Wang Lao Wu, relying on his numerical superiority, didn't put the Ferocious Second Wolf in his eyes at all, and scolded him with extremely vicious language.

  "Damn it, Wang Lao Wu, you think Grandpa is afraid of you? Come on up and fight one-on-one if you dare!"
