Chapter 54 Lei Yushan's Attention, Facing the Old Demon Directly
"So fast?"
Lei Yushan was shocked.
The leader? Isn't that the same as Lei Tang? It hasn't been that long.
Moreover, having over a thousand men under his command—even if Lei Yushan wasn't involved in a gang, he couldn't possibly be unaware of what that meant.
It's even more powerful than some small and medium-sized gangs.
Most importantly, because of Lei Tang, Lei Yushan always knew that the old hall master, Sen Lao, would soon step down. Lei Tang had been thinking about this matter and wanted to take the position of hall master.
Lei Tang was qualified to compete, and Ye Tian is qualified now too.
Moreover, judging from the current situation, Ye Tian seems to have a better chance of winning. No wonder Lei Tang has been coming to him for money all this time. He probably wants to pave the way with real money and get him to the position of hall master.
"perhaps..."
Lei Yushan was somewhat tempted.
But I still have some hesitation, after all, we're not family, and I'm a little worried.
As for the so-called "brotherly" relationship between Ye Tian and Lei Lu, Lei Yushan is not some greenhorn who has just entered the world of martial arts. No matter how good the brotherhood is, can it compare to actual benefits?
Moreover, the conflict between himself and Lei Tang had not yet reached the point of direct confrontation.
"Perhaps we can try to win them over first."
It's like investing, betting on both sides.
Lei Yushan was a merchant himself, so he understood even better the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket.
She had trusted Lei Tang too much before, and the price she paid was the loss of her only son. In the end, she was powerless to do anything about it. At most, she would say a few harsh words to Lei Tang, but she would still do what she always did.
If I had had other options at the time.
Is there really so much to worry about? Does Lei Tang still dare not take his own affairs to heart?
Thinking this way.
Lei Yushan's eyes suddenly became much sharper.
"How is Yan'er doing lately?"
The servants were puzzled as to why Lei Yushan had suddenly stopped talking, but then they heard this question.
He said it instinctively.
"Young Miss? Since joining the Yue Shan Sect, she hasn't returned except for one trip half a year ago. However, we've been receiving letters, and we're still very worried about Master's health!"
"snort!"
Hearing this, Lei Yushan became even more dissatisfied.
"Why does this young lady have to learn swordsmanship? Do I lack food or drink for her? In the future, I'll be the one to help her find a good family to marry into."
"She didn't even come back when her brother died. I think she doesn't even respect me as her father."
That's why the young lady won't be coming back.
The servant silently lowered his head.
She was Lei Yushan's eldest daughter, after all. There were some things Lei Yushan could say, but I, as a servant, had no right to comment on her.
Although Lei Yushan only had one son, Lei Lu, he had several daughters. That's why he doted on his only son, Lei Lu.
Given the current state of affairs, Lei Yushan has always regarded his son as the goal of continuing the family line.
As for the daughter.
Lei Yushan had already arranged marriages for his other daughters, but his only eldest daughter, with her strong and virtuous character, refused to marry in that way.
Several years ago, I left Linshui City and joined a place called Yueshan Sect. Apart from occasionally returning to visit and exchanging some letters, I have never come back.
"I'm sure the young lady must be busy, after all, she still cares about the master very much."
"What could possibly happen to her?"
After uttering a dissatisfied remark, he didn't say anything more.
Regardless, she is still my daughter.
"Go and send a letter, asking her to come back. Just say..."
If I were to find her a good match, given my eldest daughter Lei Yan's personality, she would probably run away just like she did a few years ago.
Thinking this, Lei Yushan changed his tune and said...
"Even if I, her father, am about to die, I want to see if she still considers me her father."
"this..."
"Hurry up and go!"
The servant hesitated, but Lei Yushan glared at him directly.
"Yes, sir, I'll take care of it right away."
Not daring to hesitate any longer, he quickly responded and left.

Ye Tian was unaware that Lei Yushan had already set his sights on him.
Many people use arranged marriages as a method, which, although old-fashioned, is very simple and effective for many.
In Lei Yushan's view, once Ye Tian becomes his son-in-law, the subsequent cooperation will definitely be much simpler.
At this moment, Ye Tian...
We have arrived at the old demon's territory.
This place is close to the mountains, and the surrounding area is mostly brick and tile houses. There are very few gambling dens or brothels on this land, which makes sense, since the old demon's main business is selling various minerals and he doesn't make money from anything else.
Ye Tian, however, felt that this was actually a sign of the old demon's cleverness.
Because of his relationship with Sister Pig, Old Demon holds a special position within the gang, occupying the best locations and enjoying booming businesses. This makes him an easy target for other gang leaders.
"You must be Young Master Ye Tian?"
We had just arrived at the old demon's territory and hadn't gone very far when someone blocked our way.
It seems that the old demon had given Ye Tian some instructions beforehand.
"My name is Ye Tian."
"That's quite audacious."
After sizing up Ye Tian, and then looking at the Iron Fist and Ghost Foot behind Ye Tian, he nodded in satisfaction.
He dared to come with just two people; no wonder he has such a great reputation at such a young age.
"The sect leader has been waiting for a long time. Please follow me."
Old Demon has a good reputation within the gang, and his territory is relatively stable. His subordinates are very loyal to him, and there isn't much infighting.
In this comparison...
Someone like Lei Tang dares to dream of becoming the head of a hall?
along the way.
Many people looked in this direction, their eyes filled with curiosity, indifference, or even murderous intent.
Throughout the entire process, Ye Tian's expression remained unchanged; he simply walked on quietly.
As for Iron Fist and Ghost Foot behind them, needless to say, unless Ye Tian gave them orders, they didn't care at all what the people around them thought of them.
The person in charge of leading the way nodded in approval after seeing Ye Tian and his companions' performance.
This mindset alone is something that those greenhorns who are new to the martial world can't compare to. If such a person doesn't die, he will surely achieve great things in the future.
,,,
"The sect leader is right here."
at last.
Ye Tian and his group stopped outside a simply decorated restaurant. The building was only three stories high and looked like an ordinary restaurant from the outside, seemingly without any class.
But along the way, we haven't seen a better restaurant than this one.
If you have money but can't enjoy it, I really don't know what the point is.
"Let me remind you of something."
Just as Ye Tian was about to go in, the person leading the way suddenly smiled.
"Getting in here is easy, but getting out again is not so simple."
