84: Chapter 84 If I say you're trash, then you are trash.
Tao Wei was so angry that his hands were trembling.
"Falcon, it's your turn now. Go up there and make sure you take them down for me."
Falcon was a relatively older middle-aged man.
From the way he walked, it was evident that he had once been a soldier. Furthermore, he was Tao Wei's number one fighter and was quite famous within the Dragon Tiger Gang, where he was also well-respected by others.
However, he had one fatal flaw: his temper was too explosive.
He had already been barely able to contain himself when he heard the provocative words from Zhang Shan and the others just now, and upon hearing Tao Wei's command, he could hold back no longer and immediately charged toward Gu Nan.
"I just can't stand your arrogant attitude. Let me see who among you is actually the trash."
After finishing his sentence, he raised his foot and kicked toward Gu Nan.
Gu Nan sneered, tilted his body slightly, and blocked Falcon's attack with his left hand.
Falcon was suddenly furious at being blocked, but at the same time, he was secretly shocked. The force of his kick was enough to break an adult's collarbone, yet he hadn't expected this Otter to block his attack so easily.
Gu Nan suddenly reached out, grabbed Falcon's fist, and looked at him with even more disdain.
No matter how hard Falcon tried, he couldn't pull his fist free.
"See? I told you that you were trash, but you didn't believe me. Do you believe me now?"
Gu Nan shoved Falcon's fist backward with a sudden, violent motion. Falcon went flying and crashed into a table seven or eight meters away.
Tao Wei and his subordinates stared blankly at Gu Nan. They never expected that the young man beside Zhang Shan would be so formidable today, defeating two of his best fighters so easily in such a short time.
Falcon lay on the ground for a while to recover, then stood up and looked at Gu Nan.
"You're not as weak as you look. You're very strong. Although I'm not your match right now, I believe that one day I will be able to defeat you."
Gu Nan glanced at him dismissively and curled his lip.
"Sorry, but I have a rebellious nature and don't like dealing with weaklings. Especially weaklings like you—I want to deal with you even less."
Falcon was so angry that he fainted on the spot. This was just too insulting!
Gu Nan turned his head to look at Tao Wei.
"Hey, you guy surnamed Tao, are you going to come up yourself now, or are you going to let someone else fight me? Send someone better; let me practice a little. Consider it my workout. If they're too weak, it's no fun at all."
Gu Nan was insufferably arrogant.
Tao Wei was so angry he laughed.
"Hahaha, Robinson, to think that even Falcon is no match for the person by your side. Little brother, I don't know your name, but you are truly impressive. With such great skills, why not join our Dragon Tiger Gang? As long as you join us, I will recommend you for a promotion."
"Rest assured, with your strength, you could definitely become a boss in the Dragon Tiger Gang. Your future would be limitless."
Tao Wei looked at Gu Nan with intense focus, a glint flashing in his eyes. If he could poach this person for their Dragon Tiger Gang, Master Sun would definitely be very pleased.
This young man could defeat that brawny man and Falcon so easily; his strength was unexpectedly formidable. If he could recruit him into the Dragon Tiger Gang, it would definitely be a great thing. If Master Sun knew, he would certainly give him a promotion and a raise.
"Oh my, oh my! Mr. Tao, what are you doing? Poaching someone right in front of me? This isn't a very honorable thing to do."
Zhang Shan said coldly.
"Hahaha, Mr. Robinson, you can't say it like that. People move to higher ground, and water flows downwards, right? Following us is definitely much better than following someone like Robinson, don't you agree?"
Ignoring Zhang Shan, Tao Wei continued speaking to Gu Nan.
"Little brother, with your skills, your future is limitless. If you come here, you will have all the money and women you could want. It will definitely be much better than living over at Robinson's place. Won't you consider it?"
In Tao Wei's eyes, Zhang Shan was just a small-time character. Even if he had a few little tricks and was quite scheming, it didn't change his essential nature as a small-timer. As for this little brother, he was likely only following Zhang Shan because Zhang Shan had given him some benefits. As long as he could offer more money than Zhang Shan, this little brother would definitely be tempted.
"Hey, you ugly guy surnamed Tao, stop wasting your efforts here, okay? Asking me to join your so-called Dragon Tiger Gang is absolutely impossible."
Gu Nan was truly disgusted by Tao Wei. As a former top assassin, joining them—with all the rules and restrictions of the Dragon Tiger Gang—was out of the question, especially since he was someone who loved freedom and hated such things even more.
He hadn't even looked up to those big gangs in the past, let alone now.
Upon hearing Gu Nan call him an ugly guy and refuse his request, Tao Wei's expression changed slightly.
"Little brother, don't be ungrateful. I'm already giving you face by inviting you to join the Dragon Tiger Gang. You dare to refuse? Do you know what the consequences of refusing will be?"
Tao Wei threatened Gu Nan.
"What consequences? Tell me and let me hear them, and see if I'm afraid."
Gu Nan said, pretending to tremble with fear.
"Hahaha, scared now, aren't you? Let me tell you, if you don't submit to me, your only consequence will be death. Think it over carefully."
Tao Wei looked at Gu Nan coldly and said.
"Is that so? I'm so scared."
Gu Nan pretended to be scared and patted his chest.
"Young man, although you look strong, do you have the confidence to defeat all the brothers I have here? I'm telling you, don't be so arrogant."
Tao Wei pretended to be earnest as he advised Gu Nan.
"Oh my! Sorry, but in my family, this talent for being arrogant is hereditary, so I can't change it. If you can't accept it, then just put up with it; it has nothing to do with me anyway."
Gu Nan really had a talent for not stopping until he pissed people off to death.
"If that's the case, then don't blame us for being impolite. Today, you and your boss will both be staying here."
Tao Wei was driven mad with rage.
"Get him! The stronger ones, deal with that young man, and the rest of you, capture Zhang Shan for me."
He thought that Gu Nan was the only one who could pose a threat to them. He completely failed to realize that Zhang Shan also possessed strength far beyond the ordinary.
Hearing their boss's command, everyone except for a few subordinates around him charged toward Zhang Shan and Gu Nan. As Tao Wei had deployed, the majority of them went toward Gu Nan, while only a few went to deal with Zhang Shan.
Zhang Shan was a little angry. He said to Tao Wei:
"You bastard, are you looking down on me?" Zhang Shan was super, super angry. He hadn't expected so many people to be sent to deal with Gu Nan, while only a few were sent to deal with him.
