Chapter 121: Rejected at the Door
Chapter 121: Rejected at the Door
After copying down the secret scroll, Jiang Cheng walked home alone.
He had an inexplicable premonition that after this, he wouldn’t know when he would see Shi Yan again.
Mainly because of the Iron Fist Gang.
That guy called Kun Ge knew his own strength, yet still dared to act so arrogantly, he must have some backing.
He might even be a Primordial Energy Warrior.
If the other party was just a First Rank Primordial Energy Warrior, Jiang Cheng had a high chance of killing him.
After all, his strength had also reached the First Rank, and his double sticks were already Accomplished. However, with the increase in his strength, the two iron sticks felt a bit light, making them slightly floaty when he swung them.
But if the other party was a Second Rank PrimordialEnergyWarrior, it wouldn’t be good.
Although Jiang Cheng thought it was unlikely that a small leader of the Iron Fist Gang could have Second Rank strength, the gang’s elites should be at least Third or Fourth Rank, right?
“It would be great if I could get some information.”
A person suddenly came to mind for Jiang Cheng.
Zhao Xiangyu.
Yes, it was from him that he had learned about the Wild Wolf Gang leaving.
Now that the Iron Fist Gang had arrived, the other party might know some inside information.
Moreover, he was still a Premium Member of the martial arts academy, and his membership was still valid. If the Iron Fist Gang wanted to kick him out, the academy should at least say something; otherwise, wouldn’t the membership fee be wasted?
Jiang Cheng nodded.
If the academy could speak up for him and resolve this matter, it would be best.
After all, even if he killed that Kun Ge, it would be hard for him to stay here. With his current strength, he couldn’t take on the entire Iron Fist Gang alone.
Grandma and Aunty Chen couldn’t keep living in Bai Shexie’s house forever.
This time, he could also inform Bai Shexie and delay for a few more days, giving her more money. He couldn’t keep taking advantage of her.
If the academy was unwilling, he would have to think of another way.
Back at home, he hid the secret martial arts and took ten thousand yuan with him, heading straight to the street’s Flying Eagle Martial Arts Hall.
He had been at home for several days and hadn’t come to the street in a long time.
Compared to a few days ago, the number of people on the street had decreased, and there were fewer vendors on both sides.
When he passed by his stall, Jiang Cheng noticed that it had already been taken over, and the person next to it wasn’t Lu Zicheng.
“Was the stall reassigned?”
Jiang Cheng thought to himself.
If he came to set up his stall now, there would probably be some trouble.
Thinking about this, Jiang Cheng shook his head. Compared to setting up a stall, improving his strength was more important.
Just like these three martial arts academies on the street, they didn’t have to do anything, and every month, a large number of people would pay them. Neither the Wild Wolf Gang nor the Iron Fist Gang dared to provoke them.
If he had that kind of strength, would the other party still dare to speak to him like that?
Entering the martial arts academy, he took out his membership card and placed it on the sensing position, but the turnstile didn’t react.
Jiang Cheng tried a few more times, but it still didn’t work.
“?”
Jiang Cheng’s eyebrows furrowed.
What’s the situation? My membership hasn’t expired, has it been accidentally damaged?
“What’s wrong?”
At this moment, the woman behind the counter noticed Jiang Cheng’s situation and walked over.
“My card doesn’t react when I put it there. Is it broken?” Jiang Cheng said.
“Really? Let me see.”
The woman took Jiang Cheng’s card, glanced at it, and her eyes widened, “You, you’re Jiang Cheng?”
"Yes, what is it?"
Jiang Cheng was even more perplexed.
"Um, I'm sorry."
The woman's face showed apology, "You're no longer a member of our Martial Arts Academy, right?"
"What?"
Jiang Cheng's expression changed.
"Mr. Jiang, please don't be hasty. I don't quite understand what's going on either, but Brother Zhao specifically instructed me that if you came, I should notify him. He will explain it to you. So, Mr. Jiang, please wait here for a moment while I go and call Brother Zhao over."
The woman apologized again.
"Alright, you go ahead. I'll wait here," Jiang Cheng took a deep breath.
Obviously, he had overthought it.
The Martial Arts Academy was not willing to mediate the matter for him and had even directly canceled his membership.
It would be a lie to say he wasn't angry, but when his strength was not yet sufficient, all he could do was endure. Just like now, he couldn't even pass through the turnstile.
Soon, a set of hurried footsteps, and Brother Zhao rushed over. Seeing Jiang Cheng standing outside the turnstile, his expression was equally grave.
"Brother Jiang."
He sighed and said, "I know you have questions. Let's find a place to talk slowly."
"Okay."
Jiang Cheng nodded, his face surprisingly calm.
The two of them entered a conference room.
"Brother Jiang, before that, I want to ask you a question."
"Brother Zhao wants to ask me about the Wild Wolf Gang members on the street. Was it me?"
"That's right."
Zhao Xiangyu looked into Jiang Cheng's eyes.
"It was me."
Jiang Cheng nodded.
At this point, there was no need to hide the truth. The Iron Fist Gang had already identified him.
And the Martial Arts Academy had already expelled him.
Moreover, Zhao Xiangyu's first words confirmed this, so denying it wouldn't make much difference.
"It was really you?"
Zhao Xiangyu sucked in a breath of cold air.
Then, he became a little anxious, "Brother Jiang, I've told you many times before, haven't I? Stay away from those people. Killing them won't stop anything. Just like this time, the Wild Wolf Gang left, and the Iron Fist Gang arrived. They specifically named you as their target. For your sake, Sister Bai even dared to defy the Master, and she's now in confinement."
"What? Sister Bai defied the Master for me?"
Jiang Cheng couldn't believe his ears.
"Sigh, it's a long story."
Zhao Xiangyu sighed and explained the previous situation with the Iron Fist Gang. They said you killed the Wild Wolf Gang members. Unless you join the Iron Fist Gang, they will either chase you away or eliminate you."
"Brother Jiang, I know your character. You would never join the Iron Fist Gang and become an accomplice to their evil. So, you only have two choices, no, make that one choice—leave this place quickly and start a new life elsewhere. And when you're in another gang's territory, remember never to let them know you killed the Wild Wolf Gang members. Otherwise, they'll chase you away or take action against you too!"
From his personal perspective, Zhao Xiangyu admired Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng dared to do what he couldn't, even with his superior strength.
However, the consequences were severe. Without anyone to back him up, he could only flee for his life if discovered.
"Brother Zhao, how powerful were the Iron Fist Gang members this time?"
