Chapter 903 - 903 903 Chinese Gangs

903: Chapter 903: Chinese Gangs 903: Chapter 903: Chinese Gangs Everyone present was a boss in their own right and certainly not ordinary individuals.

At the very least, they were all well-informed.

They had long heard about the Lingyun Society’s activities over the past few months.

Therefore, even though Ye Fei appeared to be just a young upstart, none of them dared to be condescending.

They all stood up and returned the greeting, saying, “Boss Ye, hello.” The only exception was a middle-aged man with a sinister expression, sitting at the head of the table, who not only didn’t stand up to greet Ye Fei but also sneered incessantly.

Uncle Wang quickly whispered to Ye Fei, “That man is Liu Mingyi, the boss of the local largest Chinese gang, the Qingyun Gang.

Technically, he and my boss are from the same clan, but we’ve never had any dealings with them.

Moreover, I’ve heard that this man is extremely arrogant and doesn’t really follow the code of the underworld.

We all thought he wouldn’t show up today, but surprisingly, he did.” Ye Fei nodded.

Even if Uncle Wang hadn’t told him, he would have noticed.

Next to Liu Mingyi was an elderly man with white hair and a beard.

Judging by his appearance, he must have been in his seventies or eighties, a true veteran of the underworld.

According to the rules of the underworld, even if the Qingyun Gang was the largest local Chinese gang, Liu Mingyi should have offered the seat of honor to this elder.

After nodding to everyone, Uncle Wang began to introduce each person to Ye Fei.

However, at Ye Fei’s gesture, he skipped over Liu Mingyi and went straight to the old man, saying, “Boss Ye, let me introduce you.

This is Elder Zhao Zhuoqing, one of the founding members of the local Chinese Alliance.” Back in the late Qing Dynasty, Americans lured many Chinese laborers here with the so-called Gold Mountain, promising them wealth and opportunities.

At that time, Chinese people had no status at all; they were essentially slaves condemned to hard labor.

However, the descendants of the dragon are the most resilient people in the world.

Although they were reduced to laborers, they never gave up fighting for their rights.

Through their efforts, the status of Chinese people gradually improved, but life remained tough.

It wasn’t until decades later that an organization was established—the Chinese Alliance.

It united all the local Chinese forces and finally broke through, granting Chinese people equal status with the locals.

Upon hearing that Elder Zhao was a founding member of the Chinese Alliance, Ye Fei couldn’t help but feel a deep sense of respect.

He bowed respectfully and said, “I am Ye Fei, a junior in this world.

Nice to meet you, Elder Zhao!” “I’ve heard a lot about Boss Ye.

Today, seeing you in person, I can see that you are truly a remarkable person!” Although Elder Zhao was very old, his voice was still strong and clear.

After praising Ye Fei, he suddenly had a nostalgic look on his face.

“Back in the day, I had the honor of meeting your father, Ye Lingyun.

He was a great hero, standing tall and proud.

It’s a pity that he passed away so young.

However, seeing how capable you are at such a young age, I’m sure he would be very proud of you.” “So Elder Zhao was an old friend of my father.

I apologize for not knowing earlier,” Ye Fei said hurriedly.

“If you don’t mind, please just call me by my name.

I don’t feel comfortable being called ‘boss’ in front of you.” Ye Fei’s humility greatly pleased Elder Zhao.

He smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll take the liberty.

Ye Fei, once you’re done with your business, let’s have a good chat.” Ye Fei nodded in agreement, then gestured for Uncle Wang to introduce the next person.

Ever since Ye Fei entered, Liu Mingyi had been sneering at him, expecting that Ye Fei would greet him first.

However, Ye Fei completely bypassed him and went to pay respects to Elder Zhao.

Liu Mingyi couldn’t find any fault with this, as Elder Zhao’s status in the underworld was much higher than his own.

So he had to swallow his pride.

But now, seeing that Ye Fei still hadn’t acknowledged him after talking with Elder Zhao, he couldn’t hold back any longer.

Before Uncle Wang could introduce anyone, Liu Mingyi spoke up coldly, “Boss Ye, you sure have a big ego.

The Lingyun Society has quite the reputation, but I wonder why Boss Ye didn’t stay in China.

What brings you to San Francisco?” Ye Fei signaled Uncle Wang to pause the introductions, then turned to face Liu Mingyi and said indifferently, “It seems Boss Liu is not pleased with my arrival.” Liu Mingyi snorted, “If Boss Ye is here for a visit, we would be more than happy to welcome you.

But as far as I know, the Lingyun Society has already started expanding in the United States.

Is Boss Ye’s reach a bit too long?” “We have indeed started our operations in the United States, but we haven’t set foot in San Francisco, let alone the entire state of California.

I don’t see how that would interfere with you, Boss Liu,” Ye Fei replied nonchalantly, without showing any anger.

Liu Mingyi let out another cold snort, “It may not be now, but what about in the future?

Can you swear that you will never step foot in San Francisco?” Baldy had already taken a dislike to Liu Mingyi.

Seeing him openly defy Ye Fei, he could no longer contain himself.

He stepped forward and said with a cold laugh, “I think Boss Liu should skip dinner today because no one can guarantee that you won’t soil yourself in bed tonight.” Liu Mingyi was greatly angered by the retort from Ye Fei’s subordinate.

However, being extremely cunning, he didn’t argue with Baldy.

Instead, he sneered at Ye Fei, “Boss Ye sure has strict discipline.

When the bosses are talking, even a junior like him dares to butt in.” Liu Mingyi thought that by saying this, Ye Fei would have to reprimand Baldy for the sake of face.

But to his surprise, Ye Fei just gave a disdainful smile and said, “Who do you think you are?

It’s already beneath Baldy’s status to even talk to you.” “Ye Fei, don’t push it too far!” Liu Mingyi’s face turned red with anger as he stood up abruptly and sneered at Ye Fei, “Alright, I admit your Lingyun Society can dominate in China, but don’t forget, this is America, this is San Francisco.

There’s a saying that even a strong dragon doesn’t suppress the local snake.

In my territory, you’d better keep a low profile.” “There is such a saying, and it does make sense.

However, while I may be the strong dragon, you are not even qualified to be the local snake,” Ye Fei said with disdain.

“In my eyes, you are at best a cowardly maggot that dares to do wrong but hides in the latrine all day!” Hearing that Ye Fei seemed to imply something, Liu Mingyi, despite being humiliated, couldn’t help but ask, “What do you mean?” “Isn’t it clear enough?” Ye Fei’s gaze sharpened like a lightning bolt, shooting straight at Liu Mingyi.

“Tell me, which faction kidnapped Uncle Liu?

If you don’t speak, you will not leave here today!” Liu Mingyi’s face changed, and he shouted, “What nonsense are you talking about?

How would I know who kidnapped Liu Tianlin?” Ye Fei couldn’t be certain that Liu Mingyi was the mole among the Chinese.

He just had a hunch that the kidnapping of the Liu couple must have involved some Chinese people.

However, Ye Fei’s confrontation with Liu Mingyi was not just a bluff.

He intended to deal with this guy severely.

Ye Fei thought to himself that if Liu Mingyi was the culprit, it would be justified to take him down.

And even if he wasn’t, it wouldn’t be a wasted effort.

As the leader of the largest local Chinese gang and a man who didn’t follow the underworld code, taking him down would not only rid the local Chinese community of a menace but also establish his authority.

He believed that by using strong and decisive actions, he could intimidate everyone.

Then, getting inside information from them would be much easier.

So, without wasting any more words on Liu Mingyi, Ye Fei suddenly made a move, grabbing him by the neck and narrowing his eyes as he asked, “Are you going to talk or not?” The reason Liu Mingyi dared to challenge Ye Fei was not only because he had someone backing him up but also because of his skills.

He was quite accomplished in the Great Slab technique and rarely encountered a worthy opponent.

Moreover, Ye Fei had no local influence at all, which made Liu Mingyi feel overconfident.

However, as soon as Ye Fei made his move, Liu Mingyi realized the true meaning of an absolute gap in strength.

His abilities were nothing compared to Ye Fei’s.

With just one hand around his neck, Ye Fei rendered him completely powerless.

Frightened, Liu Mingyi no longer dared to be defiant and shouted, “Ye Fei, even if you want to use this as an excuse to get rid of me and take over my territory, you should come up with a better reason.

Otherwise, the people here won’t let you act so unrighteously!” It had to be said that Liu Mingyi was somewhat clever.

By saying this, he positioned himself as a victim and tried to use the code of honor to restrain Ye Fei.

But as soon as Liu Mingyi finished speaking, Elder Zhao slammed the table forcefully and said coldly, “Honor?

Do you, Liu Mingyi, even know the meaning of honor?” Elder Zhao’s words immediately resonated with everyone present.

They had long been annoyed by Liu Mingyi but dared not speak out because not only was he stronger individually, but he also had an endless supply of advanced firearms.

So, they usually just endured his behavior in silence.

Ye Fei, however, paid no attention to the reactions of the others.

He just stared at Liu Mingyi and said, “I’m asking you one last time, are you going to talk or not?” “I told you, I don’t know——” Liu Mingyi shouted, but his words turned into a scream of pain as soon as he said, “I don’t know.” Ye Fei had already made his move, tearing off his left ear with a forceful yank.

Seeing this, even the hardened gang leaders present couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

They were all impressed by Ye Fei’s ruthlessness.

On Ye Fei’s side, however, there was little reaction.

Ye Zhilin had experienced underworld fights before, Liliya had crawled out of piles of corpses, and as for Liu Yun’er, although she hadn’t been through such things, seeing the man who might be the culprit behind her parents’ kidnapping only made her feel relieved.

Despite the intense pain, Liu Mingyi tried to be tough and planned to keep denying Ye Fei’s next question.

But Ye Fei didn’t ask him anything.

Instead, he reached out and tore off his other ear.

With both ears now gone, Liu Mingyi was in such agony that he almost fainted.

But it didn’t stop there.

Before the pain from his ears could subside, he felt a sudden darkness in his left eye, followed by an even more intense burst of pain as Ye Fei gouged out his left eyeball.

At this point, Liu Mingyi had already lost both ears and an eye, but Ye Fei showed no sign of stopping.

He reached out towards Liu Mingyi’s right eye.
