Urban Super Soldier King

Chapter 498: Xiang Yu and Two Others Lack Faith



"So this is Brother Scarface's territory, my apologies, according to the rules of jianghu, we three brothers should indeed come to pay homage..."

Before Xiang Yu could finish speaking, the man in front of him said through gritted teeth, "I've already told you, I'm not your so-called Brother Scarface; my name is He Jiang, remember that."

Xiang Yu quickly nodded and said, "It doesn't matter what you're called, now the three of us brothers are officially here to pay homage. Since we're all part of jianghu, we can't break its rules."

When He Jiang heard Xiang Yu say this, he burst out laughing, along with the people around him. In their eyes, Xiang Yu himself was a joke.

They were only three people, what sort of nonsense jianghu were they talking about.

"I've heard about the deeds of you three as well. In fact, the reason I asked you three here today is that I have another intention," He Jiang said, looking at the trio.

"Say whatever you have in mind, as long as it's something the three of us brothers can do, we won't be vague about it; consider it a gift for our first meeting," Xiang Yu said with a sense of loyalty.

"Refreshing! I like the spirit of brothers like you. Since this is my territory, I absolutely won't allow any other forces to exist here. Since brother is also part of jianghu, why not join our 'Evil God'?" He Jiang said.

Upon hearing the words 'Evil God', Xiang Yu sneered inwardly, this was exactly what he was waiting for. Indeed, in this city, the Evil God organization had already monopolized the entire underground force.

They were spreading their doctrine, corrupting people's minds, and now they were buying up a massive amount of weapons. It was unclear what schemes they had, but the potential harm to society was immensely great.

"'Evil God'? Never heard of it. Is it just a few of you?" Xiang Yu said with a hint of disappointment as he looked at the few of them.

Upon hearing this, He Jiang laughed heartily and said, "Of course, it's not just us few; we're just a small part. Make no mistake, this entire city is our territory, and our brothers are scattered all over the place. Your actions these past few days have all been within our surveillance."

He Jiang felt very proud as he said this because he was one of them. And as a member of the cult, he felt an elevated sense of superiority.

Seeing him like this, Xiang Yu became even more convinced of his own thoughts, this He Jiang must have already been brainwashed.

"Is it really that powerful?" Xiang Yu asked, his eyes wide with curiosity.

"Naturally, what we are pursuing is absolute fairness and justice, freedom and ease, unbound by any constraints, you could even call it a state of anarchy," He Jiang said with anticipation.

Xiang Yu listened intently and then looked at He Jiang with expectation, "Is what you're saying true? What benefits will the three of us brothers get if we join 'Evil God'?"

"The benefits are many. As long as we strive and fight for it, we'll have money everywhere, beautiful women for everyone to sleep with, living unrestrained, doing whatever we want," He Jiang said, his face full of anticipation.

At this moment, Xiang Yu also seemed very eager and then pretended to look back at Tie Zhuzi, "Brothers, did you hear that? That's the life we yearn for."

Tie Zhuzi cooperated with Xiang Yu, wearing a look of longing on his face. It had to be said, their performance was seamless. Xiao Xuan, slightly less talented in acting, could only stand there with a forced smile.

"Brother Scarface, I've made up my mind, I want to join you too," Xiang Yu said, his face full of longing and eagerness.

"I told you, my name's not Scarface," He Jiang yelled.

"All right, all right, no need to call me Scarface, Big Boss He, the brothers are all out of money. Let's get some cash to spend first," Xiang Yu said eagerly.

Everyone was speechless, including He Jiang. They'd seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless. He'd just met He Jiang and was already asking him for money.

"I don't have money," He Jiang said irritably.

"Come on, Scarface, stop being stingy. From now on, we'll stick together and have endless money and endless women to woo. Do you really care about this little bit of money?" Xiang Yu chuckled.

He Jiang pointed at Xiang Yu, almost dying of anger, then pulled a few banknotes from his pocket and threw them at him. Then he looked around at the others and said, "Take him for training, see if he makes the cut."

After He Jiang finished speaking, he turned and left. He came to the conclusion that Xiang Yu and his two companions were downright scumbags, but they were precisely the kind of people he was looking for, the kind he intended to use to achieve his own goals.

Xiang Yu happily accepted the money He Jiang threw at him, then handed it over to Tie Zhuzi, who quickly pocketed it, looking every bit the quintessential street thug.

"Let's go, I'll take you to a place," one of the men said with a laugh, while the others looked at them with mocking smiles, clearly regarding the three as oddities.

The group, worried that Xiang Yu and his companions might run away, escorted them to a relatively remote location. There was a large factory there, one without any production machinery, just a crowd of people listening to a lecture.

Standing at the forefront was a man, dressed in scholarly attire and with a benevolent face, who was passionately delivering his talk.

Xiang Yu knew that this was the place where they brainwashed people.

Xiang Yu and his two companions were brought in and seated, surrounded by many people standing around, perhaps worried about the possibility of them trying to escape.

"One can't live a life in utter ignorance. We must have ideals, dreams, and passion. After all these years, ask yourselves what you've gained, what you've achieved. Are you willing to continue living like zombies on the road ahead? Our choice is no. We must pursue..."

The lecturer above was brimming with passion, his spittle flying as he spoke. Xiang Yu sat there listening intently. It had to be said that the man was quite eloquent, and it would be difficult for the average person to resist being persuaded.

However, Xiang Yu, who was on a mission, naturally couldn't be fooled by such rhetoric. The people around him, on the other hand, had looks of adoration on their faces, as if already mesmerized, willing to die if the lecturer asked them in the next moment. Such was the power of brainwashing.

Tie Zhuzi, meanwhile, sat there with his head down, fast asleep. If Xiang Yu hadn't hit him, he probably would have started snoring.

The three of them had little faith to speak of, only believing in the strength of their own hands. But now, they had to pretend to be fascinated, like everyone else, and listen closely.

Tie Zhuzi was also forcing himself to stay alert. When he was a student, he always felt sleepy during lectures, and it was the same now. Even though the lecturer was energetic, it couldn't resist his habit of falling asleep.

By the end of the lecture, the audience stood up and started to shout loudly, dreaming of freedom.

Looking at a group of idiots shouting around him, Xiang Yu also had to stand up and shout with them. And he shouted louder than anyone else, as if he'd become a faithful follower from the moment he arrived.

The lecturer naturally noticed Xiang Yu and his two companions and couldn't help but nod to himself, obviously very satisfied with his lecturing skills.

"You three, come here," the lecturer motioned to Xiang Yu and his companions...
