Chapter 229: Chapter 229: 3 Members of the Celestial Alliance (First Update)
After the McDonaldās incident, Su Xiong knew that Lin Xi was very strong. He believed that Lin Xiās strength was at the level of a novice King of Soldiers. However, novice Kings of Soldiers can vary in strength, and it was clear that Lin Xi belonged to the stronger category, definitely a level above Shi Bao.
Su Xiong had a much deeper understanding of the Celestial Alliance than Lin Xi and others did. There were roughly three Kings of Soldiers in total, and their strength wasnāt much weaker than Su Xiongās. It shows that the Celestial Alliance acts recklessly in the South City, with no other top underground powers managing them. Both sides would suffer heavy losses if a war broke out.
This was why Su Xiong asked Shi Bao and others to follow Lin Xi to the Celestial Alliance.
The first reason was to ensure Lin Xi and others leave the Celestial Alliance safely, and the second was to test their overall strength.
Of course, if only Lin Xi goes to the Celestial Alliance, thereās likely no major danger because experts of this level are difficult to kill or trap. However, he still has two subordinates: one injured and one weak.
But since the Celestial Alliance hired someone to try to kill his daughter, itās already a situation of no return. However, Su Xiong never fights battles he isnāt sure about. Once he figures out the Celestial Allianceās background, heāll deliver a thunderous strike.
After the meal, Su Xiong prepared ten million to thank Lin Xi, not just for rescuing Su Qiaoqiao last time, but to forge a friendship. After all, his daughterās cold illness still depended on him.
"Thereās no need," Lin Xi refused.
He understood Su Xiongās intentions, but he saved Su Qiaoqiao entirely because of fate. Using money as a measure changes its nature.
Moreover, Su Qiaoqiao was already his predetermined wife in his heart.
So his current thought is, as family, why make things so formal!
Finally, a party of ten left the villa in three cars.
The Celestial Joy Mansion is located in a remote place in South City, surrounded by mostly vacant commercial buildings. But the Celestial Joy Mansion alone is bustling with daily traffic.
This is related to its main business operations, which include a bathing center, foot massage, accommodation, and moreāitās an entertainment complex with complete functional facilities. However, only those with status and wealth know it hides a luxurious casino inside, with some backing ensuring no worries about investigations.
Xu Hong and Shi Bao also knew that this place is the largest base of the Celestial Alliance, with their key figures gathered here.
And at this time, Wenhai, with an expressionless face, left the Celestial Joy Mansion with two subordinates and quickly drove away.
On the seventeenth floor, three men stood by the window. They had similar heights and builds, and even their expressions bore resemblance.
Two of them were in their thirties. One wore dress pants and a white shirt, dressed like a business elite. This was the leader of the Celestial Alliance, Mo Jian, nicknamed Blood Maniac. The other wore loose casual clothes and looked more refinedāhe was the second-in-command, Mo Biao, nicknamed Blood Fiend. The last man appeared the youngest, around twenty-seven or twenty-eight, dressed in stylish sporty attire. He was the third leader, Mo Sha, nicknamed Blood Demon.
If it werenāt for their age differences and distinct clothing styles, they could easily be mistaken for triplets.
"Big brother, do you think Wenhai was exaggerating?" The third leader Mo Sha questioned with disbelief, as Wenhai had just reported the situation at the "Speed Bar."
The leader Mo Jian was pondering and didnāt immediately respond, but the second leader Mo Biao replied, "I think itās mostly true. Though Wenhai hasnāt been with us long, heās a smart man and wouldnāt lie about this."
"But a King of Soldiers under twenty, that might be a bit exaggerated, perhaps to shirk responsibility."
PS: Thanks to "This Hurt is Not That Wound" for the 100-point reward. There will be updates tonight, and this Chapterās Celestial Alliance leader, Blood Maniac, is a minor role from our readerās dragon parade. Hmm, although he might not survive many Chapters, at least his identity and strength are impressive. Other readersā roles will also be gradually introduced.
