Chapter 319 Calling Someone
"Showstopper? I think you're just out of men! Acting like a goddamn hero for others, I swear if I don't kill you, my name isn't Liu Tongsheng!" Liu Tongsheng gritted his teeth and roared, then bellowed, "Brothers, get your weapons out! Once they arrive, hack away immediately!"
"Roar!"
The gangsters' morale skyrocketed, as they all roared in response, brandishing their knives and looking at Hao Jian and his people with malice and mockery in their eyes.
"Nice energy, but utterly useless." Hao Jian stood up leisurely, smiling at Liu Tongsheng, "I didn't plan on killing you just now, but after hearing what you said, I've changed my mind."
"Kill me? Have you had your brains squeezed by a door? The people coming now are mine, not yours!" Liu Tongsheng laughed loudly, looking at Hao Jian as if he were an idiot, not taking his words seriously at all.
"Kid, still trying to act tough? You think just a few words from you are enough to scare us?" Liu Tongsheng's underlings also felt bolstered, sneering continuously.
Just then, they heard the sound of footsteps at the stairwell, and the smiles on Liu Tongsheng and his people's faces grew even wider.
"Happy about what, haven't you noticed that the footsteps are sparse?" Hao Jian looked at Liu Tongsheng as if he were an idiot.
At those words, Liu Tongsheng suddenly froze. After Hao Jian pointed it out, he also realized something was amiss. Indeed, why were the footsteps so sparse? If it were a group of people, the sounds should be dense and heavy.
At that moment, Liu Tongsheng and his men saw a man covered in blood appear at the door, who immediately cried out in panic, "Boss, run! We were ambushed!"
"Ambushed!?" Liu Tongsheng and his men were startled, and Liu Tongsheng himself grabbed the underling by the throat, "Speak clearly! What the hell happened?"
"Our brothers just ran into a group of gunmen downstairs, they... they have guns! They killed all our brothers!" The underling was blubbering, clearly terrified.
They were gangsters, used to wielding knives, but now they were faced with opponents who brought firearms into play—how could they contend?
"Bullshit! Then why haven't I heard any gunshots?" Liu Tongsheng still couldn't believe it. Dozens of his brothers, gone just like that?
"They fitted silencers on their guns, boss, run for it! They'll be up here in a minute!"
At this point, Liu Tongsheng was utterly panic-stricken, turning his horrified gaze towards Hao Jian. Could it be that those people were all called by Hao Jian?
Meanwhile, Wang Wanjun and the others were completely dumbfounded. Hao Jian had actually called for backup? And those people had guns?
Liu Tongsheng felt a chill enveloping his entire body, coldness seeping into his bones.

He wanted to run, but felt it would be too shameful; his last shred of rationality struggled against the fear.
"Swoosh!"
Suddenly, a glint of knife flashed by, and the head of the underling who had come to sound the alarm flew off in an instant, blood gushing from the severed neck.
"Ah!"
Jiang Yutong and Wang Wanjun, the two timid women, screamed in terror first. They had never seen such a scene before and trembled with fear.
Even Qin Bing couldn't help but frown, feeling a sense of dread in her heart.
This scene was indeed a little frightening.
Blood splattered all over Liu Tongsheng's face, as he stared blankly at the body falling down, and what came into view next was a middle-aged man with a gloomy expression.
Seeing him appear, Liu Tongsheng was completely dumbfounded, "Brother… Brother Spice Ginger?"
Mixing in the East City District, it was natural that Liu Tongsheng recognized Brother Spice Ginger, the gang boss. Now, seeing Brother Spice Ginger appear, Liu Tongsheng couldn't help but feel his skin crawl.
The man who killed his brother was Brother Spice Ginger? Was Brother Spice Ginger the backup that the kid had called for?
"Yo, Liu Tongsheng, quite impressive, huh? Haven't seen you for some days, and you dare to stir up trouble on Poria Cocos's turf?" Brother Spice Ginger laughed heartily, his laughter sounding cheerful but in this environment, this atmosphere, it seemed terrifying.
Especially since Brother Spice Ginger had killed a man in front of Jiang Yutong, it made their perception of his smile even more chilling.
"Brother Spice Ginger, is there some misunderstanding between us? I…I've never offended you, right?" Liu Tongsheng said timidly, facing Brother Spice Ginger, he only had one way out—death.
"You haven't offended me, but you have offended my boss," Brother Spice Ginger chuckled.
"Your boss?" Liu Tongsheng was somewhat puzzled, who was Brother Spice Ginger's boss?
Brother Spice Ginger slapped Liu Tongsheng across the face and then forced his head to face Hao Jian, saying ominously, "Do you see him? He is my boss!"
In an instant, Liu Tongsheng gasped in shock, why would it be like this? How was this kid Brother Spice Ginger's boss? How had he not heard about it?
And for Brother Spice Ginger, someone of such an older age, to actually take such a young kid as his boss, that was simply too inconceivable, wasn't it?
At first, Liu Tongsheng thought Hao Jian was just an ignorant young punk; then, he thought Hao Jian was just a bit of a brawler who could fight somewhat; and now, his perception had been completely overturned.
"Thump!"
Without any hesitation, Liu Tongsheng kneeled directly before Hao Jian, "Big Brother, it's all my fault, a thousand faults, ten thousand faults. I shouldn't have provoked you, and I shouldn't have bullied Jiang Yutong's family! I promise you, I will absolutely not harass their family again, please give me another chance!"@@novelbin@@
"I don't need your promise, I just want your life!" Hao Jian revealed a wicked smile, looking down at him, "I wanted to reason with you just now, but you weren't willing to reason with me, insisting on talking about the laws of the fist. Now I'll talk to you about the laws of the fist, my fist is harder than yours, so I can kill you!"
Hearing this, Liu Tongsheng started to cry, grabbing onto Hao Jian's legs, "Big Brother, I'll reason with you, I'm reasoning with you now."
"Too late!"
Hao Jian smiled coldly, then raised his head to look at Brother Spice Ginger, "Dispose of him, don't dirty the place, understand?"
"I know what to do," Brother Spice Ginger said with a malicious smile, then signaled to his underlings with a glance.
Following that, Brother Spice Ginger's men dragged the howling Liu Tongsheng and his people away, their fate already evident.
Either a few more solitary graves would appear in the desolate wilderness tonight, or a few more bodies would float in the rivers.
