Yannan City, meeting hall on the tenth floor of Lanting Hotel.

The death of Huang Wei was ruled as a traffic accident.

Mad Blade was taken away by the traffic police, and after recording his statement, he was released.

Yang Fei then convened a meeting in the conference hall of Lanting Hotel.

This meeting was the very first real meeting of the Lanting Group.

Queen Lin Xueyi and Tiger Roar Yang Fei sat on the main stage.

The rest of the attendees included the entire membership of the former Golden Buddha Group.

The Three Swords, Two Gods, and Five Ghost Kings were all present.

In addition, the thirteen big rascals from Shan Province and their chief bodyguards had also arrived.

Fan Yi and Mad Blade, Yi Long, and Long Xia were considered Yang Fei's direct lineage.

However, these four did not participate in such a meeting.

The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.

People in the Mortal World knew the terror of the Tang Sect.

Many harbored fear and respect towards this ancient martial sect.

It couldn't be helped; Tang Sect's exotic poisons, as well as their various incredible hidden mechanisms and weapons.

In a country where firearms are banned, their power is immense.

Nobody wanted to provoke them without good reason.

Yet today, of all days, the Lanting Group had killed an outer door disciple of the Tang Sect.

Even though Huang Wei died in a traffic accident, that was no longer important.

To the Tang Sect, this was an insult.

And this was an insult no sect would ever let slide.

Otherwise, in the future, the disciples of the sect would not be able to hold their heads high in the Mortal World,

and the Sect Leader would be unable to explain things to the sect's disciples.

Yang Fei cleared his throat and said indifferently, "Let's see, how should we handle the situation today?"

Three Swords sneered coldly, his eyes and brows filled with chilling decisiveness.

"A mere outer door disciple of the Tang Sect, if he's dead, he's dead."

"No matter how overbearing the Tang Sect is, they must still be reasonable, right?"

Just as Three Swords made this statement, the other big rascals also began to take a stand one after another.

"The Tang Sect poisoned ordinary people, which is already a violation of the Mortal World's rules; he deserved to die."

"As I know, Tang Sect disciples are strictly forbidden from using poison on ordinary people."

"Huang Wei broke the sect rules, and the Tang Sect wouldn't let him off either."

"That may be true, but we still need to prepare ourselves for possible Tang Sect retaliation."

...

For a time, inside the meeting hall, everyone began voicing their opinions.

Some took a firm stance, while others, more experienced and cautious, reminded everyone to beware of Tang Sect's experts.

Yang Fei looked on with satisfaction as the group argued endlessly.

A formidable enemy was the best test of a group's core cohesion.

At present, there were no discordant voices within the Lanting Group.

While the others debated, he quickly conferred with Lin Xueyi.

Since taking over from Golden Buddha and becoming Queen Lin,

she had gradually come to understand the great trends of the Mortal World.

Lin Xueyi realized the horror of the Tang Sect and was deeply concerned.

Yang Fei patted her shoulder, signaling that everything would be alright.

After letting the big rascals finish speaking,

Yang Fei then raised his hand to signal for everyone to quiet down.

He glanced at Lin Xueyi and was very satisfied.

"I'm very pleased to see that all our brothers are of one heart," he said.

"You're right; the Tang Sect is not to be feared. What's truly fearsome is if we were to fall into disarray on the inside."

As he said this, his eyes and brows revealed a sharp ferocity.

"The disciples of Tang Sect casually poisoning ordinary people; to put it bluntly, the Tang Sect has no justification."

Yang Fei's words won the unanimous response of the many experts below.

"Brother Fei is right. No matter how strong the Tang Sect is, they can't just come and shit on our heads."

"Brother Fei, just say the word. Whatever it is, we're with you to the end."

...

Yang Fei waved his hand to ask everyone to listen to him finish.

```

"Although we aren't afraid of the Tang Sect, we also have no need to deliberately provoke them,"

"Let's do this, I'll handle the Tang Sect issue."

"I will personally go to the Tang Sect to resolve this matter."

Upon hearing this, everyone started to shout out in protest.

"No, Brother Fei going alone to the Tang Sect is too dangerous."

"If we go, we go together, at least take me with you, I'm not afraid."

...

It took quite an effort for Yang Fei to calm everyone down.

Just as he was about to say something, the door of the conference hall suddenly banged open as someone kicked it in.

Outside the door, an elder with a goatee, clad in a blue cloth robe, walked in.

Following the elder were four youngsters, both males and females.

These four youngsters wore the white robes of Unity Hall.

Each of their faces was covered in frost, clearly not the kind to be trifled with.

The person seated at the entrance of the hall was none other than Lai Wuyou from Yancheng.

He was startled, spilling the tea all over his suit.

Lai Wuyou, having lost face in front of everyone, immediately flew into a rage.

He abruptly stood up and bellowed at the elder, "What are you doing?"

Behind Lai Wuyou, two chief bodyguards also stood, one in front and one behind him.

Their presence was menacing.

The elder in the blue robe paid no attention to Lai Wuyou.

He led the four young people behind him into the hall.

Lai Wuyou instantly became enraged; never in his life had anyone dared to belittle him like this.

Lai Wuyou took a quick step to catch up with the elder, reaching out to grab the elder's shoulder.

"Do you know where you are? Dare to barge in like this?"

The elder did not dodge or resist.

He simply turned his head and looked at Lai Wuyou with cold eyes, as if he were looking at a dead man.

Strangely, after being glanced at by the elder, Lai Wuyou shuddered.

His face turned ashen, he slowly collapsed, his body hunched over, trembling uncontrollably.

The two chief bodyguards behind Lai Wuyou were actually his two senior brothers.

Seeing Lai Wuyou fall inexplicably, they rushed over immediately.

One of them held Lai Wuyou, while the other grabbed the front of the elder's clothes.

"Old buzzard, what kind of sorcery did you cast on my junior brother?"

The old man did not speak, just calmly looked at the chief bodyguard's hand.

The chief bodyguard's hand was still clutching at the elder's clothes.

Behind the elder stood the four young men and women in white robes of Unity Hall.

All four looked mockingly at Lai Wuyou's bodyguards.

Lai Wuyou's bodyguard hesitated for a moment, then suddenly his face changed dramatically.

He too shuddered and collapsed just like his fallen companion.

In an instant, this bodyguard's eyes rolled back, his face turned pale, his body hunched over, trembling incessantly.

Meanwhile, the bodyguard holding Lai Wuyou shuddered as well.

He too slowly fell to the ground, exhibiting the same symptoms as Lai Wuyou.

From the moment the elder entered the hall, without moving shoulders or hands, he had taken down three Dark Force Grand Martial Artists.

Everyone inside the hall was shocked into silence.

Who was this elder, and did he practice sorcery?

Yang Fei only needed one glance at the elder in the blue cloth robe to know that this elder was a master of using poison.

The elder's martial arts realm seemed to be only Mysterious Grade Dark Energy.

However, his skin was tinged green, and his eyes also faintly radiated a green hue.

This was a characteristic of the Tang Sect Inner Sect masters.

Even Yang Fei had not expected the Tang Sect to respond so swiftly.

Less than an hour after the incident, a Tang Sect master had come knocking.

The elder glanced at Yang Fei, then at Lin Xueyi.

He stated dispassionately, "The person who killed Huang Wei, please step forward."

As he spoke, his eyes swept around the room, as if oblivious to the others.

Behind the elder, the four young men and women also remained silent, quietly waiting for Yang Fei to speak.
