Everyone's faces lit up with excitement upon hearing this.
The analyzing man spoke again, "Brother Wolf, we need to act fast, otherwise, I fear other underground forces might get involved."
Old Wolf nodded, "Indeed, this requires haste. Search now, find out where that kid Chen Fan is."
At this moment, a young man quickly interjected, "Brother Wolf, isn't Chen Fan's woman Boss Song? If we go after Chen Fan, will she come after us?"
Old Wolf sneered confidently, "Heh heh, Chen Fan killed Ghost Hand. So what if he's Boss Song's man? If the Big Boss tolerates Chen Fan, it will break the hearts of all our brothers! I believe the Big Boss knows what he's doing."
As he finished speaking, Old Wolf commanded, "Search for Chen Fan's whereabouts. I'll go find him myself."
"No, I'll personally avenge my good brother!"
"Hahaha!"
Thinking of how he would soon possess the underground forces of three cities, Old Wolf couldn't help but burst into laughter, showing no hint of sorrow for his fallen brother.
Not far from Panlong Mountain lay Panlong Manor.
In a secluded private room, Chen Fan sat opposite a young and beautiful woman at a candlelit dining table.
The woman was strikingly beautiful, but her eyes held a cold, unapproachable demeanor.
This woman was Song Wenting, the owner of Red Leaf Bar.
"You didn't just ask me here for dinner, did you?" Song Wenting asked, taking a sip of red wine and looking at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan opened his mouth, unsure of how to begin.
After all, he wasn't very close to Song Wenting, and she had helped him more than once. He already owed her a great deal. Most importantly, Chen Fan knew that there was no real relationship between them.
"What's wrong? Shy and can't speak?" Song Wenting chuckled, covering her mouth.
"Let me guess what you're here for today." Song Wenting rested her chin on her delicate hand and pondered for a moment.
Then, she looked at Chen Fan and said, "I received news today that Da Xiong and his men went to Sucheng. If I'm not mistaken, your visit is related to Sucheng, isn't it?"
Chen Fan's expression faltered, showing surprise.
He hadn't expected Song Wenting to know about Da Xiong's trip to Sucheng so quickly.
"How did you know about these things?" Chen Fan asked, puzzled.
"Want to know?" Song Wenting leaned forward, her perfect figure causing Chen Fan to quickly avert his gaze.
Seeing Chen Fan's reaction, Song Wenting chuckled again. "If you want to know, then become mine, and I'll tell you everything."
Chen Fan coughed dryly. "Cough, cough, Boss Song, I have a girlfriend."
Song Wenting burst into laughter.
"What are you laughing at?" Chen Fan frowned slightly.
Song Wenting said, "Chen Fan, you're overthinking it. When did I say I wanted to be your girlfriend? I meant for you to join Red Leaf Bar."
Chen Fan blushed, realizing he had misunderstood, and felt a wave of embarrassment.
However, Chen Fan still refused, "I'm sorry, Boss Song, I'm not interested in the fighting ring at your bar."
Song Wenting smiled calmly, "It seems you're the one asking for a favor."
Chen Fan frowned slightly, "You want to use that as a condition?"
"Why not? You're the one who needs something from me," Song Wenting said indifferently.
"What do you want me to do?" Chen Fan asked.
"Recently, my godfather has some matters to attend to and needs a personal bodyguard to protect him. If you agree to be his bodyguard, then I will naturally agree to your request," Song Wenting stated her condition.
"You know what I want you to do?"
"Heh heh, Chen Fan, you underestimate Red Leaf Bar. From the moment Da Xiong's men first entered the underground casinos in Sucheng, I knew everything about your plans. You're here to get my godfather's approval to cede Sucheng to Da Xiong. You know, without my godfather's consent, Sucheng will never be yours."
"Approximately when? And for how long?" Chen Fan inquired.
"Two days. I won't tell you the location yet."
Chen Fan pondered for a moment and finally nodded, "Alright, I agree."
For Chen Fan, being a bodyguard for a short period to allow Da Xiong to control the entire underground force of Sucheng was worth it.
"Bang!"
Just then, the previously closed door of the private room was suddenly kicked open.
Following that, two bodyguards were thrown inside.
These were the bodyguards protecting Song Wenting.
The sudden turn of events caused Song Wenting's expression to turn cold as she looked towards the doorway.
Outside the door, two middle-aged men appeared, followed by countless other men.
Seeing the two figures leading the group, Song Wenting asked with a cold face, "Old Wolf, E Kui Ping, what are you two doing here?!"
The newcomers were none other than Ghost Hand and E Kui Ping.
They had encountered each other at the entrance of the manor. To their surprise, they had both had the same idea: to capture Chen Fan and thus threaten Da Xiong.
Given Chen Fan's formidable skills, they had brought a considerable number of men and weapons this time.
Outside the manor, the two had quickly reached an agreement to avenge Ghost Hand and then divide the underground forces of Sucheng and Jiangcheng.
Having reached an accord, they entered the manor together.
Old Wolf's face was grim, "What are we doing here? Boss Song, that's a good question!"
Beside him, E Kui Ping wiped a tear from his eye. "My brother Ghost Hand hasn't rested in peace in the underworld, and you two dogs are here enjoying yourselves! Boss Song, what do you think we're doing here?!"
Song Wenting's eyebrows furrowed. Her already distant eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. "E Kui Ping, watch your words. Who gave you the audacity to speak to me like this?!"
"Heh heh! Song Wenting, I said it, what can you do about it?!"
E Kui Ping pointed at Chen Fan again. "Your man killed my brother. If I don't get revenge, heaven will not forgive me!"
Old Wolf chimed in, "Old Crocodile is right, heaven will not forgive! Song Wenting, I advise you to leave now. If you dare to interfere, I'll deal with you too!"
"You dare! Are you disrespecting my godfather?!" Song Wenting questioned sternly.
Old Wolf burst into laughter. "Hahaha!"
"Song Wenting, if the boss knew Chen Fan killed Ghost Hand, do you think he would still protect him?!"
