125: This is not your power.

"I have something I want to discuss with you in private."

Fang Huai waved his hand at Toad Old Seven, who understood immediately and sent Liu Dahua away.

"Find me a safe place, the kind where I can plant trees, and it shouldn't be less than twenty mu."

"Immortal Master..." Toad Old Seven wore a difficult expression.

Fang Huai frowned and asked, "Is it difficult?"

"For someone like me, it is indeed quite difficult," Toad Old Seven hurriedly explained. "There are many Barren Lands outside Sanxian City, but Yao Beasts often appear there, so I'm afraid it's not safe. Most of the fields within Sanxian City are grain-growing zones, and by regulation, they must be used to plant Spirit Rice. If you want to plant trees..."

"Are you not wanting your tongue anymore for speaking only half the truth?"

Toad Old Seven hurriedly continued, "The Fierce Tiger Gang does have a plot of land that doesn't belong to the grain-growing zone, but with my authority, I cannot acquire it."

Fang Huai said, "Just tell me how to acquire it."

Toad Old Seven swallowed his saliva, "The Hall Master of the White Tiger Hall of the Fierce Tiger Gang has a thirty-mu plot of private Barren Lands where he has been raising Colorful Chickens. Someone asked him for the price before, but he was unwilling to sell."

Unwilling to sell? Fang Huai stared directly into Toad Old Seven's eyes. Seeing the other party's gaze dodge, he immediately understood what he meant.

Cultivating a loyal subordinate is not just about establishing prestige; one must also provide benefits at the right time.

Even so, Fang Huai still did not like this kind of roundabout, petty cleverness from Toad Old Seven.

"You are from the White Tiger Hall, right?"

"Y-yes..." Toad Old Seven stuttered.

"Take me to see the Hall Master of the White Tiger Hall. Also, speak directly next time."

The promotion mechanism of the Fierce Tiger Gang is very simple. As long as one reaches the level of a small leader, one can challenge a larger leader.

If you beat the other person into submission, you can take their place.

Liu White Tiger, originally named Liu Jin, had only reached the second layer of Body Forging at the age of thirty. After killing the original Hall Master of the White Tiger Hall, he legitimately sat in that position.

Don't look at how he spends his days eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling; he has never neglected his cultivation. He spends at least four hours a day practicing martial arts to ensure his combat power does not decrease.

At this moment, he was sitting on a grand armchair with his eyes slightly closed, listening to his subordinate report the recent income.

"Hall Master, this month we collected fifty-two Spirit Stones and six hundred taels of gold, which have already been recorded in the accounts."

"Hmm, well done." Liu White Tiger opened his eyes and nodded slightly. "Hand over seventy percent of it to the main hall, distribute ten percent among the brothers, and send the remaining twenty percent to my home as usual."

"Understood!"

Just as Liu White Tiger was about to close his eyes again, a subordinate rushed in to report: "Hall Master Liu, Toad Old Seven is looking for you."

"Toad Old Seven?" Liu White Tiger found the name somewhat familiar, but couldn't remember who it was, so he asked, "Who is Toad Old Seven?"

The subordinate said, "One of the small leaders in our White Tiger Hall."

"Hmph! He really doesn't know the rules. Is he qualified to see me? Tell him to get lost!"

The subordinate stuttered, "He came to challenge you, saying that the position of Hall Master of the White Tiger Hall should be his to sit in."

"Arrogant! Let him wait outside."

At this moment, with a bang, the mansion door was kicked open, and Toad Old Seven and Fang Huai walked in swaggeringly.

"Liu White Tiger, you haven't opened the door for so long, are you afraid? If you're afraid, roll down from that grand armchair," Toad Old Seven said arrogantly.

Liu White Tiger narrowed his eyes into slits and did not get angry immediately; his gaze was focused on Fang Huai. This person's Aura was restrained, and he did not look like a mediocre person.

"And who is this brother?" Liu White Tiger looked at Fang Huai.

Fang Huai waved his hand and said, "I'm just here to watch the show, don't worry about me."

Although Liu White Tiger couldn't gauge Fang Huai's strength, Toad Old Seven had already fought his way to the door, so he had to accept the challenge no matter what. Thus, he said, "Toad Old Seven, you are courting death. Do you know that behind me is Immortal Master Xu?"

The Immortal Master Xu that Liu White Tiger spoke of was at the Qi Refining Third Layer, but Toad Old Seven, having Fang Huai backing him, was naturally unafraid.

"Stop talking nonsense. Do you dare to accept the challenge or not?"

"Why wouldn't I dare? I will kill you right now!"

Seeing that Toad Old Seven didn't even care about Immortal Master Xu, Liu White Tiger's anger arose from his heart, and he shattered the tea table with a palm strike. He stomped his feet hard on the ground and pounced on him like a starving tiger.

Seeing Liu White Tiger's Aura, Toad Old Seven looked at Fang Huai with some trepidation.

Fang Huai's eyes were full of smiles as he said, "You fight him first; I want to see what your strength is."

Toad Old Seven had no choice but to bite the bullet and go up. Although Fang Huai had promised to help him sit in the position of Hall Master of the White Tiger Hall, he wanted to watch a show now, so Toad Old Seven had to start performing.

Liu White Tiger's punches and kicks were extremely fierce, and in just one exchange, he broke several of his ribs.

Seeing Toad Old Seven spitting blood, and Fang Huai on the side still watching the show without any intention of intervening, Liu White Tiger immediately felt relieved, and his punches and kicks became even more ferocious.

"Baji Collapse!" The punch that broke Toad Old Seven's ribs had only used two parts of his strength, but this punch now used ten parts of his strength, striving to kill Toad Old Seven.

"Immortal Master, save me!" Toad Old Seven felt the crisis of death and hurriedly begged Fang Huai for help.

Fang Huai said indifferently, "Meet his punch with your own."

Hearing the words "Immortal Master", Liu White Tiger's tiger-like body shook, and he finally understood why Toad Old Seven was so arrogant.

But he could not stop now. If he stopped, Toad Old Seven would surely use the name of the Immortal Master to drive him down from his position as Hall Master of the White Tiger Hall. Only by killing the opponent and then offering benefits to the Immortal Master in front of him, begging him to cover for him, was the only way to survive.

Thinking of this, Liu White Tiger's fist wind became even fiercer, and his eyes were full of killing intent.

Toad Old Seven tremblingly extended his right fist to meet Liu White Tiger.

At this moment, he felt a surge of violent power that did not belong to him pour into his body, and his soft fist immediately became as hard as steel. That power was more than a hundred times stronger than his own strength.

"Bang—" The fists collided with Liu White Tiger's. Only a continuous crisp "crack" sound was heard. The fist was like hitting into a soft white flour bun; Liu White Tiger's arm exploded like a firecracker, and the bones were shattered into countless fragments.

"Ah!" The huge impact blasted Liu White Tiger to the ground. His face was twisted, full of pain: "Toad Old Seven, you motherfucker! Where is this your power!"

Toad Old Seven said proudly, "The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit. Why talk nonsense? Who knows if you had the help of Immortal Master Xu when you seized the position of Hall Master?"

Just as he wanted to continue showing off, Fang Huai said, "Don't waste time."

"Understood."

After saying this, Toad Old Seven walked to Liu White Tiger, kicked him over, and stepped on his chest: "You should thank the Immortal Master for letting you suffer less torture."

After saying this, he exerted force with his foot and crushed Liu White Tiger's chest.

After that, he grabbed Liu White Tiger's head with both hands, twisted it a few times with force, and with a "snap" sound, twisted his head off.

"You, come here, hang Liu White Tiger's head on the mansion gate." "You, go to the main hall and report the news that I successfully challenged Liu White Tiger." Toad Old Seven called out to the Fierce Tiger Gang members who were watching in a daze on the side.

Although a few ribs were broken, Toad Old Seven felt no pain at all under the extreme joy, having already entered the role of Hall Master.
