All Heavens: Starting with Little Li Flying Dagger

Chapter 41 Lin Xian'er climbed up to Shangguan Jin Hong

News of the Money Gang spread very quickly.

That evening, Shangguan Jin Hong received news from Gu Yu that he would take his head within three years.

However, Shangguan Jin Hong is not currently at the headquarters of the Money Gang, but in another city not far from Baoding Prefecture.

The person who came to report the news was Shen Laosan, who was the wealthiest man in the surrounding area.

The Shen family was a large and prosperous clan with more than a dozen brothers in each branch. Not counting their land and houses, they owned forty or fifty shops in the city alone.

Strangely, in the past two years, the Shen brothers have died one after another from illness.

To this day, only Shen Laosan is still alive and well, and all of the Shen family's assets are under his name.

But few people know that Shen Laosan's businesses are actually the businesses of the Money Gang.

The Money Gang rose to prominence at an astonishing speed, seemingly springing up everywhere overnight, with money shops, trading companies, pawnshops, and security escort agencies spreading across the five provinces of Shanxi, Chahar, Hebei, Shandong, and Henan.

There are also two branches in Beijing.

Its momentum is so strong that it seems to be able to rival the Beggars' Sect, which is known as the "number one gang in the martial arts world".

This is why many people in the martial arts world regard Shangguan Jin Hong as a god-like figure.

Little did they know that Shangguan Jin Hong had been secretly plotting for this day for nearly twenty years.

Only when the time was right did they officially raise the banner of the "Money Gang," using the domineering declaration "Money on the ground, heads lost" to intimidate the martial arts world.

He managed to win over as many as seventeen of the top fifty masters on the weapons ranking list.

"Okay, I understand!"

Upon hearing the news reported by Shen Laosan, Shangguan Jin Hong's expression remained unchanged; he simply nodded slightly in response.

Shen Laosan cautiously asked, "Chief, should we...?"

At this moment, Shangguan Jin Hong raised her eyelids and glanced at Shen Lao San, which startled Shen Lao San so much that he shivered and quickly shut up.

"For something like this, you just need to report it, understand?"

Shen Laosan replied in a trembling voice, "Yes, I understand!"

"You can leave now!"

"This subordinate takes his leave!"

As soon as Shen Laosan left, a woman appeared out of nowhere, sat on Shangguan Jin Hong's lap, and hooked her arm around Shangguan Jin Hong's neck.

Perhaps she is the only woman in the world who dares to do this.

Even Shangguan Jin Hong's deceased first wife had never made such an intimate gesture.

Because this woman is Lin Xian'er.

Why did she get involved with Shangguan Jin Hong?

This is a very strange story.

After escaping Xingyun Manor, she coincidentally encountered Shangguan Fei, the young leader of the Money Gang.

In just two days, the aloof and arrogant Shangguan Fei obediently became Lin Xian'er's devoted follower, spending his days in her bedchamber.

Shangguan Jin Hong was furious after receiving the news.

Although he had always been a calm and composed person, Shangguan Fei was his only son, so how could he tolerate a woman ruining his son's future?

Therefore, he sent one of his most trusted subordinates to kill Lin Xian'er.

This subordinate is named Jing Wuming, the number one assassin of the Money Gang, and is known as the shadow of "Shangguan Jin Hong".

However, Shangguan Jin Hong never expected that Jing Wuming, who was always cold-blooded, ruthless, and obedient, would disobey his orders for the first time.

Jing Wuming not only didn't kill Lin Xian'er, but he also fell for her and became infatuated with her gentle charm.

Enraged, Shangguan Jin Hong decided to take action personally.

result……

"Boss, everyone heard what we just said."

Lin Xian'er writhed gently in Shangguan Jin Hong's arms like a snake, her voice sweet and delicate.

"and then?"

Shangguan Jin Hong's hand slipped inside Lin Xian'er's clothes without her noticing.

For the past ten years or so, he has been busy with planning, martial arts training, making money, and recruiting people. He thought he had lost interest in women.

As a result, upon seeing Lin Xian'er, his long-dormant heart unexpectedly became lively again.

He finally understood why Jing Wuming couldn't bring himself to do it.

Because he couldn't bring himself to do it.

It would be a shame to kill such a beauty; it's better to keep her by our side.

"This man is extremely cunning and loves to seek fame and fortune. He proposed the three-year agreement simply because he wanted to become famous overnight, and he was also certain that the gang leader would not dare to kill him."

Shangguan Jin Hong nodded: "That's right! Why should I bother with a mere ignorant and arrogant young martial artist?"

"Actually, I have a way to deal with him."

"Oh?"

"The gang leader should know about the 'Precious Mirror of Pitying Flowers,' right?"

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Shangguan Jin Hong's eyes.

Even now, at the pinnacle of his career, he is still tempted by the "Lianhua Baojian".

If he could obtain the "Lianhua Treasure Mirror," it might help him break through his martial arts bottleneck and enter a completely new realm.

"As far as I know, the 'Precious Mirror of Pitying Flowers' used to be in Lin Shiyin's possession, but she has most likely already given it to Li Xunhuan..."

Upon hearing the name "Li Xunhuan," even Shangguan Jin Hong's expression changed.

Li Xunhuan's flying dagger never misses its mark!

This has become a legend in the martial arts world, but Shangguan Jin Hong has always wanted to break this legend.

However, he wasn't sure.

Not yet, at least not yet.

He won't do things he's not sure about.

Just like when he formed the Money Gang, he planned for nearly twenty years; he had the patience to wait.

Lin Xian'er continued, "Now that that boy is hanging out with Li Xunhuan, why not do this and that..."

This woman has once again successfully stirred up a huge upheaval in the martial arts world.

In just a few days, Gu Yu's name spread throughout the entire martial arts world, maintaining its high popularity and firmly holding the top spot on the "hot search" list.

"I heard that the Amorous Swordsman openly provoked Chief Shangguan, saying he would definitely take Chief Shangguan's head within three years!"

"Who gave him the courage? Liang Jingru?"

"Liang Jingru? Could she be that female knight-errant from southern Fujian who specializes in the Courage Technique?"

"It is said that Gu Yu accidentally obtained the Lianhua Treasure Mirror, which is why he dares to be so arrogant."

"The Precious Mirror of Compassion for Flowers?"

"No wonder this kid has risen to prominence so quickly..."

Behind Li Garden is a quiet alley, where there is a small shop selling chicken feathers. The owner is a short, hunchbacked man known as Hunchback Sun.

Opening a shop in such a secluded place, business is naturally not going to be good.

However, Sun Tuozi seemed quite content, having run the shop for over a decade.

That noon, for some reason, more than a dozen customers came into the shop one after another, making the small shop suddenly crowded.

These dozen or so guests were clearly not from the same group, and they all seemed to dislike each other.

One of the burly middle-aged men sneered, "I didn't expect the Han brothers, the Twin Tigers of Nanshan, to join in the fun too."

"What? Only you, Duan Kaishan, are allowed to come? My brothers aren't?"

Duan Kaishan, nicknamed "Hercules," was born with great strength and had developed superb external strength skills. It is said that he could easily lift a cow.

At this moment, a woman said in a sweet voice, "It seems that no one is afraid of Little Li's Flying Dagger."

"Poisonous Lady, stop with your sarcastic remarks. Who do you think you can scare away?"

The Poisonous Lady giggled coquettishly: "White-haired monkey, I don't want to scare anyone away. Actually, having more people is a good thing; neither of us has a chance of succeeding."

"I agree with that. So, let's join forces. No matter how skilled Li Xunhuan is, he only has two hands. As long as we plan properly, we are not without a chance."

"White-haired monkey, tell me, if we really succeed, who gets the prize?"

"At worst, we can make a few more copies to ensure that everyone has one, so that there won't be any disputes."

"That makes sense..."

Everyone shared their opinions and discussed strategies, seemingly forgetting about Sun Tuozi.

He is someone who is easily overlooked.

"Brother Gu, you've finally become famous throughout the land."

Ah Fei, holding a bowl of wine, said with a smile.

"Ugh!"

Gu Yu sighed and downed the wine in his bowl in one gulp.

He had already received the system's daily intelligence: an attack was coming tonight...
