Jiang Weichen raised his glass and thanked Zhao Chengtian first, "Thank you, Gang Leader!"

Then he turned around and said, "Thank you all brothers for your kindness!"

After saying that, he drank it all again.

After toasting three glasses of wine, Zhao Chengtian said, "Okay, everyone, start eating. Don't worry."

Jiang Weichen looked at the table full of dishes but did not pick up his chopsticks first. He waited until several people started to eat before he started.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, everyone in the hall seemed like a real family, toasting each other and chatting while eating.

As the dishes on the table slowly ran out, Jiang Weichen thought to himself, "Is this really just a celebration banquet? Am I really overthinking it?"

After eating and drinking his fill, Zhao Chengtian stood up shakily and said, "Brothers, I, Zhao Chengtian, would like to take this opportunity today to make an announcement. I..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhao Chengtian suddenly lost his balance and sat back down on the chair.

Zhao Chengtian thought to himself: What's going on? My alcohol tolerance can't be that bad, right?

"Forgive me, brothers. I may have drunk too much."

The people in the audience didn't take it seriously, but instead burst into laughter.

But as they laughed, some people lost their balance and fell to the ground.

The sudden change made some people who didn't know what was going on instantly alert.

Jiang Weichen's eyes suddenly focused, and after looking around, he found that more than half of the people had fallen down one after another.

I thought to myself: As expected, he said how could this be a simple celebration banquet?

Jiang Weichen lifted his foot and waved his hand under the table.

It’s okay. I circulated my internal energy again and found that it was the same as usual. I was not poisoned.

He looked at the dishes and wine jug on the table. He ate the food but was not poisoned, so the problem must be the wine.

Ever since he killed someone with wine for the first time, he swore never to touch alcohol again. He was just pretending to drink just now. The wine went into the container in the Yandao Hall before it even entered his mouth.

Chapter 77 Zhu Kai's Death

Jiang Weichen looked at the nearly half of the people who had fallen down, and he also pretended to collapse on the table.

Zhao Chengtian also realized the problem at this time, and asked angrily: "The food is poisoned? Who poisoned it?"

He turned around and immediately understood, because most of the people still sitting there were Huang Mengsheng's people.

"Huang Mengsheng, did you poison the food? But I clearly arranged for someone to test it before serving it."

Huang Mengsheng stopped pretending at this point and stood up and laughed, "Hahaha~, the food isn't poisonous, the poison is in the wine."

"Impossible, I've had the wine tested!" Zhao Chengtian said, then looked at Wang Zhaohui. Seeing that he was not poisoned, he immediately had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, Huang Mengsheng sneered, "That's because Wang Zhaohui has already joined me. And I used a muscle softening powder, so ordinary silver needles can't detect it."

Softening tendon powder is not some strange poison, but it is the most difficult to detect.

It dissolves in alcohol and water, is colorless and odorless, and is not easily detected with a silver needle.

Zhao Chengtian looked at Wang Zhaohui. Although he was angry, he didn't want to pursue the matter. Instead, he asked, "Why? I believe I have never treated you, Huang Mengsheng, unfairly!"

Huang Mengsheng said: “You really didn’t treat me unfairly, but now among the three major families in Yangcheng, the Hua family has Hua Yunxuan, which is developing rapidly.

The Zhang family has Zhang Yifeng who comes from the Qiu Shui Sword School and now controls the Dark Night Pavilion, so my Huang family is at a disadvantage.

If our Huang family doesn't find a way out, how can we survive in Yangcheng?"

Zhao Chengtian said angrily: "When I founded the Black Tiger Gang, your Huang family did provide a lot of help.

But over the years, you have occupied a high position and won over many confidants. I don’t know how much gold and silver you have embezzled, but I have already recovered it with interest.

You've embezzled so much, and you're still not satisfied?"

Huang Mengsheng sneered, "If I can take it all, why wouldn't I want it all?"

Zhao Chengtian stopped arguing and said, "What are you going to do with these people? Kill them? Then how will you resist the Dark Night Pavilion? Do you think the county magistrate's notice is really that effective?"

What Hua Yunxuan wants is stability, as long as it does not affect ordinary people. They are considered a gang, and the court would like more of them to die.

Looking at the fallen Zhu Kai and Niu Gui as well as the seven or eight subordinates in the acquired realm, Zhu Kai, Niu Gui, and Li Ziniu had followed him from the beginning, and the seven or eight subordinates in the acquired realm stood out after being trained by him.

As for those who have not cultivated internal strength, he doesn't care at all.

Huang Mengsheng looked down and said, "Tie up all the poisoned people. If they are willing to serve me, I will detoxify them later. If not, kill them immediately."

After Huang Mengsheng finished speaking, the people below who originally belonged to him bowed and accepted the order and said, "Yes!"

"Elder Huang, I was ignorant before. You are so magnanimous. I will serve you now!"

"Brother Huang, I surrender. Don't kill me. We were drinking and eating meat together before!"

"..."

Those who collapsed in the audience were originally under the command of the gang leader, but when they saw that the gang leader was also poisoned, they knew that the game was over, and they quickly begged for mercy, expressing their willingness to serve Elder Huang.

Qin Xiao is one of them. He is a fence-sitter. After listening to Jiang Weichen's words before, he has been very cautious.

He only ate after everyone had eaten, especially Jiang Weichen above him.

But he didn't expect that he would still be tricked. If he had known earlier, he would have found an excuse to leave. Anyway, he was not the protagonist.

Qin Xiao regretted it very much at this time, but he had no choice but to compromise and surrender in front of the butcher knife, and then was tied up.

Zhao Chengtian looked at the men he had trained, who had all defected, and surprisingly, not a single one was killed.

He felt a little sad, not knowing how Huang Mengsheng would deal with him.

After the men below dealt with those elite members and the seven or eight deacons in the acquired realm,

Huang Mengsheng then looked at Zhu Kai and Niu Gui and asked, "Are you two willing to join my army?"

Although Niu Gui followed Zhao Chengtian to start his career, he had not participated in their fights in recent years. He sighed:

"Elder Huang, you know I'm practicing Iron Shirt, and I'm almost past my peak. Could you please, for the sake of our long-standing brotherhood, allow me to withdraw and enjoy my old age?"

Huang Mengsheng nodded, but still said: "In view of our years of friendship and the fact that you haven't targeted me in the past few years, I can let you enjoy your old age in the future, but not now?"

Niu Gui asked, "Why not now?"

Before Huang Mengsheng could speak, Li Ziniu interrupted, "Elder Niu is a powerful fighter. How can he withdraw so easily? Wouldn't this weaken the Black Tiger Gang's strength?"

Niu Gui had no choice but to compromise and said, "Okay, I agree. Elder Huang, please help me detoxify!"

He felt weak and insecure.

Huang Mengsheng said indifferently, "Elder Niu, what if I detoxify you and you regret it later? After this is over, move your family to Yangcheng first!"

Niu Gui said angrily: "Huang Mengsheng, you want to use my family to control me?"

Niu Gui's family is not in Yangcheng, but in Suzhou.

For people like them, although there is a rule that misfortune will not extend to family members, in order to prevent their enemies from becoming desperate, they will not bring their families with them and most of them are away from home.

Huang Mengsheng said, "Elder Niu, I'm just afraid that you'll regret it. If you don't regret it, your family will be fine. They'll just have to live in a different place."

Niu Gui was about to retort when Huang Mengsheng interrupted him, saying, "Elder Niu, please take your time to think about it. Zhu Kai, what about you? Are you willing to serve under me?"

Zhu Kai didn't think much about it. He had to bow his head under the eaves and said, "I can join you."

Huang Mengsheng took out a pill and said, "Take it!"

Zhu Kai didn't answer and asked, "What is this?"

"There is a kind of insect dormant in the pill, called the Mother-Child Heart-Linking Insect. After taking it, it lodges in the heart and feeds on blood, but the amount is not large, so it has little effect on the human body.

But if the mother worm dies prematurely, the daughter worms will riot and run around in the heart, causing the heart to burst and die.

The Huang family does not have any unique poison, and using poison to control people can be easily overcome.

This kind of poison is not easy to be cured, because when the child insects move abnormally, the mother insect will sense it, and ordinary people cannot remove it quickly.

Zhu Kai angrily asked, "Why? Niu Gui doesn't need to take it, but I have to?"

"Because you've repeatedly opposed me in the past, I'm worried about you. Furthermore, this type of Gu worm is difficult to cultivate. Elder Niu has family members to support him, and he's almost past his prime. It's not worth it."

It’s not that Huang Mengsheng didn’t want to use it, but he only had three pairs of these poisonous insects.

Niu Gui breathed a sigh of relief and was not angry at Huang Mengsheng's words.

Zhu Kai's face changed constantly. If he took the insect, he would be completely controlled by others in the future. He couldn't make a decision for a while.

Huang Mengsheng lost his patience. He wanted to make an example of someone to scare others.

Zhu Kai had opposed him many times before, preventing many of his plans from being implemented, and he was already unhappy with Zhu Kai.

If he is still hesitant at this time, there is no need to stay.

He would also have to kill some of those who surrendered to him. Otherwise, if no one died in a riot, how could he establish his authority?

After he came to power, not many people respected him.

This was not the result he wanted to see.

When Zhu Kai was hesitating, Huang Mengsheng immediately took action.

Zhu Kai wanted to dodge, but he was too weak to do so. He quickly said, "I surrender, I surrender..."

"Bang~"

Before he could finish his words, Huang Mengsheng punched him in the temple with all his strength.

The sound of bones breaking was heard, and Zhu Kai fell to the ground.

Chapter 78 Li Ziniu's Death

Zhu Kai's death made Zhao Chengtian nervous. He quickly used his internal energy to detoxify, but because the quality of his internal energy was low, it was unable to detoxify and his whole body was still weak and powerless.

His muscles and bones were weak, so it was useless to have internal energy. What's more, his internal energy could not leave his body to attack.

Zhao Chengtian was anxious and said, "Huang Mengsheng, I was about to announce my abdication and quit the underworld. If you want the position of gang leader, I will give it to you.

I can announce this to the gang members in public, and you will be the successor to the position of gang leader."

Huang Mengsheng, Li Ziniu and others were all stunned.
