Immortality from plundering luck

Chapter 30 Changes in Situation
There was a lot of noise in the hall, and many people were even talking in low voices.

"Today's meeting is quite important. Even Envoy Bai is attending." Wei Changqing, the leader of the Dongze Township branch, said softly.

"Have you heard any news?" Situ Yue, the leader of the Taiping Township branch, gestured.

"Could something have happened to Elder Shi?" Wei Changqing shook his head, then frowned and spoke in a serious voice.

Situ Yue smiled and said gloatingly, "No wonder. Elder Shi is only at the sixth level of the mortal body. With this strength, he actually wants to eliminate those ape monsters. Isn't this just courting death?"

Wei Changqing glanced at him, a flash of disdain flashed across his eyes. He just paused and said nothing.

Although he looked down on Situ Yue's character, the Situ clan from which the latter came was now on the rise, and the deputy gang leader Situ He might be able to break through to the ninth level of the mortal body at any time.

He also didn't want to cause trouble and get into trouble.

Seeing that Wei Changqing did not take up the conversation, Situ Yue could only smile awkwardly, but a hint of viciousness emerged in the depths of his eyes.

He knew that Wei Changqing had always looked down on him in his heart.

This made Situ Yue, who was born into the Situ family and was proud of it, very uncomfortable. He wanted to jump up and slap him a few times.

But speaking from the perspective of strength, although I am also at the sixth level of mortal body, I am unfamiliar with martial arts. If a fight really breaks out, I am afraid I will be beaten badly.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the angrier I get, the more I think about it.

"Just wait until Master Situ He is promoted to the ninth level of the Ordinary Body Realm and drives Yuan Hongri off the position of gang leader. All of you will have to work like slaves for me!"

Situ Yue roared in his heart.

However, as time went by, the Situ He he mentioned never appeared, which made Situ Yue quite confused.

"What happened today? Why didn't any of the two deputy gang leaders show up? It's OK that Deputy Gang Leader Zhou didn't show up, after all, he is in charge of Guangze County, but where did Deputy Gang Leader Situ go?"

Many people have questions in their minds.

They looked to the front and saw that the gang leader had not arrived yet. The positions of the two deputy gang leaders were vacant. Below them was the first chief official, Bai Kongqun.

However, ever since Bai Kongqun showed up, he had been meditating with his eyes closed. No matter how noisy it was outside, he never opened his eyes.

This made those who wanted to ask him for information shut up and leave.

Another bell rang, and two people came in following the sound of the bell. Everyone looked over and was surprised to see that Elder Shi from Qinghe Valley was actually striding in, while their Gang Leader Yuan was actually walking to the side with an apologetic smile.

After last night's misunderstanding, Yuan Hongri was first threatened by Shi He and then had his own tigress vent her anger on him. Now he was feeling a little depressed and was in a very humble position.

It seems like he has faced reality.

So, facing everyone's shocked gazes, Shi He sat on the large eagle-backed pear wood carved chair on the central platform with a majestic posture, while Gang Leader Yuan sat on the first chair below it.

Situ Yue was filled with shock.

"What's going on?" He exclaimed, attracting the attention of many people: "This Elder Shi actually took the position of the gang leader. The gang leader took the position of Lord Situ. What does that mean?"

Wei Changqing's eyes were also full of doubts, but he was more shrewd and did not say anything. Instead, he looked in the direction of the First Chief Envoy Bai Kongqun.

Bai Kongqun had opened his eyes at some point, and his gaze stayed on Elder Shi. He was not angry, nor was he confused. He just looked at him expressionlessly, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Yuan Hongri clapped his hands twice and said loudly, "Silence!"

He usually had great prestige, and these two moves made the entire hall quiet. The officials who were originally discussing fiercely also shut their mouths instantly and looked upwards.

"Today I will announce something extremely important, regarding a job change, which may affect the Blackwater Gang's future plans, so I order you all to come."

As soon as these words were spoken, many people present looked at Elder Shi who was sitting in the first seat and understood what was going on.

But even though I understood it, I became more and more confused inside.

What is going on here? Although Elder Shi of Qinghe Valley is very good at Xinglin techniques, the position of gang leader requires more strength. How can he, a warrior of the sixth level of the mortal body realm, take this position?
If he can do it, then so can I? At this moment, many people's minds were in turmoil, and there were a lot of discussions on the field again, which was a bit noisy.

Yuan Hongri coughed twice and pressed his palms together, signaling everyone to keep quiet.

"I, Yuan Hongri, feel that my physical and mental condition are not as good as before, and I have recently begun to think about giving up the position of gang leader."

"After discussing with the senior management, we finally reached the decision:"

He gestured to Shi He who was sitting at the first seat, and said solemnly: "The elder Shi He of Qinghe Valley will serve as the fourth generation leader of the Black Water Gang."

Elder Shi is the gang leader?!

How does this work?
Anger accumulated in Situ Yue's heart. He didn't understand why Shi He, who should have died, didn't die, but instead took the position of gang leader. This position clearly belonged to their Situ family, how could it be the turn of a loser!
Situ and the adults are not here. They must have been transferred away because of something they said.

Since Lord Situ is not here, I, Situ Yue, will be the backbone of all the Situ family forces present!
"I don't agree!" Just as he was about to object, a dull voice sounded.

"Who dares to snatch away my credit for following the dragon?" Situ Yue was furious. Such a good opportunity was taken away by someone.

In his opinion, when Situ He comes back, everything will be back on track. Since the old leader is not in good spirits, let Situ He take over the position of leader.

As for Shi He, he is just a clown!
When he raises his arms and shouts loudly, and everyone echoes him loudly, Shi He will leave the throne of the gang leader in disgrace.

Therefore, whoever stands out first will be a noble person in the eyes of Situ He, and the greater the contribution will be!
But now his beautiful dreams were ruined!
The field fell silent for a moment, and everyone looked over. Some were envious, some were jealous, some were just looking forward to the show, and some were quite calm.

Shi He's eyes flickered as he looked at the burly man standing in the middle of the lobby.

Heishuitang, the second in charge, Hu Taiche.

There are seven managers in the Black Water Hall, except for the seventh manager Situ Lan who is a complete loser. The other six are all powerful, proficient in palm, spear, halberd, sword, etc., and their realm is roughly at the sixth or seventh level of the mortal body.

Hu Taiche, who is at the seventh level of the ordinary body realm, created his own martial arts, the Taiche Halberd, and once severely killed three warriors of the same level. His strength is firmly ranked in the top ten in the Black Water Gang.

This man was quite ugly, with a yellowish complexion, muscular body, extremely strong arms, and a heavy halberd on his back, looking quite ferocious.

As he stood up suddenly, the murderous aura from his body suddenly gushed out and spread in all directions.

Hu Taiche stared at Shi He, his eyes filled with a dark light that was ready to devour anyone. His voice was like thunder, echoing throughout the hall: "Is this guy qualified to be the leader of the Black Water Gang? Where is Lord Situ? Why didn't he see him today?"

Yuan Hongri was about to speak when Shi He raised his hand to stop him.

He turned his gaze to Hu Taiche, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"Lord Situ left Shanghe yesterday and will be back soon. It doesn't matter if Minister Hu disagrees. Is there anyone else here who thinks the same way?"

Yuan Hongri immediately understood Shi He's plan, sighed softly, and was about to stand up, but now he sat down again.

Many people present noticed this detail, and they narrowed their eyes, remained silent, and retracted their feet after taking a step forward.

"Whoosh!"

There was a chaotic sound of footsteps, and a moment later, seven or eight more people appeared behind Hu Taiche, and Situ Yue was among them.

Some are watching the situation from the sidelines, while others simply don't care.

I'm just here to get a salary. There are changes in the gang's top management, but it doesn't affect me, so what does it have to do with me?

"Just these people? I'm afraid there are more than just these people who are dissatisfied with me. It would be better for them to just stand up and let me give up this idea." Shi He's expression did not change, and he still had a smiling look on his face.

So, at the signal from Situ Yue, Hu Taiche and others, another group of people stood up.

At this time, there were already fourteen people standing in the hall.
