On July 1, because the Giant Whale Gang held a celebration of the succession of the gang leader, the entire Sanjiangkou was a lot more lively.

Many famous heroes from the north and south of the river came to Sanjiangkou to participate in this celebration because of various relationships.

Fortunately, the Whale Gang is also notoriously extravagant.

Not only is the gang headquarters huge, but there are thousands of gangs to maintain order, and on the whole it is busy but not chaotic.

Zhao Kong, dressed in a black and red dress, was standing at the door of the lobby, greeting the representatives of the major forces.

At this time, it was Hao Datong among the seven sons of Quanzhen, and Zhao Kong arched his hand with a smile on his face.

"Daoist Hao came in person, it really made my giant whale gang shine."

Hao Datong didn't underestimate Zhao Kong because he was young, and said with a smile after politely returning the salute.

"Gang Master Zhao is polite, Ling Zun and my Quanzhen Sect are also more than ten years of friendship, this time the senior brother should have come in person, but unfortunately there was an urgent matter in the sect, and the senior brother had no time to separate, so he had to come on behalf of the poor Dao."

Zhao Kong knew that the other party was saying kind words, so he smiled and nodded yes.

After a few simple words to Hao Datong, he and several Quanzhen disciples were introduced into the hall.

The Quanzhen Sect is one of the main collaborators of the Giant Whale Gang in the Kingdom of Jin.

Many of the jewelry and spices received from overseas were sold to the upper echelons of the Jin Kingdom through the Quanzhen Sect, so as to reduce the conflict with the major forces in the north.

Therefore, the two families do have some interests, but it is obviously unrealistic to say that Ma Yu should come in person.

The succession ceremony of the leader of the Giant Whale Gang, there are many and miscellaneous people who come.

There are not a few people who know Ma Yu, and they won't be able to hide their identities at all.

After all, the nest of the Quanzhen Sect is in the territory of the Jin Kingdom, if there is no absolutely suitable reason.

Ma Yu, the head of the sect, went to the Jiangnan area of the Song Kingdom in a bright way, what did the powerful people in the Jin Kingdom think?

As soon as he came out of the lobby, Zhao Kong saw Elder Peng of the beggar gang again and walked towards him with a smile.

The squinting Elder Peng politely exchanged a few words with him, and then walked into the inner hall with more than a dozen beggars.

For the beggar gang, Zhao Kong was a little dissatisfied.

In the past, the relationship between the Giant Whale Gang and the Beggars Gang was quite close, and Zhao Kong's cheap father was also a talent.

The intelligence system, a key department, was outsourced to the beggars.

not only reduced a lot of expenses for the Whale Gang, but also made good friends with this top faction.

But in the end, this Zhao Da gang leader can be regarded as suffering a loss in intelligence.

Before the new information of the beggar gang arrived, he was ambushed by others and died an unknown death.

It's just that the Giant Whale Gang really can't blame the Beggar Gang for this matter, and the two gangs hand over intelligence information once in ten years.

If there is an emergency, the beggars will try to deliver it in time.

Zhao Kong's cheap father, but he didn't know who had fooled him.

Jumping into someone else's trap with a roar, he couldn't even wait for the time to transfer information from the beggar gang.

So in the end, he was ambushed and killed, and he really can't blame the beggars.

However, this also clearly exposes that without its own intelligence system, in this era of slow information exchange, many times it will really kill people.

And what made Zhao Kong even more dissatisfied with the beggar gang was that his cheap dad was killed for half a year, but the beggar gang hadn't even figured out the identity of the murderer.

is so blatantly perfunctory, Zhao Kong naturally can't have a good impression of the beggar gang.

……

In the lobby of the Giant Whale Gang, the important figures of the major forces have already taken their seats.

Other people in the rivers and lakes who are not of enough status gather in groups to chat.

Looking at the high-ranking members of the Giant Whale Gang, they walked up to the temporary wooden platform in the center of the lobby.

On the wooden platform, Zhao Kong stood on the left and right, with the Great Elder Yan Dong and the Second Elder Hu Xuan, and the other elders standing on both sides.

Yan Dong used the sound transmission method that Zhao Kong had just taught him yesterday.

Although he was not yet very skilled, with his full strength, a slightly muffled voice spread throughout the hall and beyond.

"It has been half a year since the unexpected death of Zhao Yi's gang leader, and I invite all of you to come here today to witness the as......cension of the new gang leader of our gang."

For Zhao Kong, a young man who is not well-known, many people don't care too much.

But for the Giant Whale Gang, which has strong financial resources and a large number of people, they have to give some face.

The hundreds of people who entered the lobby basically immediately quieted down and listened carefully to what Yan Dong said.

It wasn't until half an hour later that the succession ceremony was about to be completed.

Suddenly, a giant whale gang hurriedly walked to the stage and whispered something to Zhao Kong and the others.

After Yan Dong and Hu Xuan heard this, they both frowned.

Only Zhao Kong smiled absently, and then used his mana and said with a smile to the guests in the hall.

"Zhao's succession ceremony can actually let the Iron Palm Gang Qiu Gang Leader come in person, if you are interested, you can go with Zhao to greet him."

Over the years, the Iron Palm Gang has become more and more prosperous under the leadership of Qiu Qianren, and it has faintly had the momentum of the top faction in the south.

Even the beggars, who are outnumbered, may not be able to suppress each other in the southern region.

Qiu Qianren was even more of a strong man recognized by Wang Chongyang at the beginning, even if his reputation was not as loud as the Five Uniques.

But most people know in their hearts that no matter how he ranks, he can basically enter the top ten in the world.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the Iron Palm Gang sent people to Sanjiangkou to participate in the succession ceremony of the Giant Whale Gang.

But Qiu Qianren came over in person and participated in the ceremony of Zhao Kong, an unknown junior, which was very abnormal.

After all, Qiu Qianren is not a good person, and I have never heard that he likes to carry young people.

Moreover, the Giant Whale Gang and the Iron Palm Gang are located in the same south, and there is already a lot of friction between them.

The Iron Palm Gang, which is rapidly expanding but lacking in foundation, is obviously coveted by the giant whale gang on the rich side.

It's just that Qiu Qianren has always lacked a suitable reason to do it.

Therefore, the people of the major forces in the hall almost guessed that there would be nothing good when they heard that Qiu Qianren had brought people to the Giant Whale Gang.

Sure enough, before Zhao Kong and the others walked out of the lobby, they heard a burst of unbridled laughter.

"Hahahaha...... Hahahaha......"

This laughter was mixed with a strong internal force, and as the laughing person got closer and closer, the laughter became more and more deafening.

The people with lower strength in the lobby could only stop, cover their ears with their hands, and work hard to resist.

A moment later, a middle-aged man in a yellow kudzu shirt walked into the lobby laughing loudly.

This person's figure is not very majestic, but his dragon and tiger steps, looking forward to self-pride, the grandmaster's temperament is undoubtedly displayed.

Behind him were more than a dozen black-clothed swordsmen with cold expressions, and these people walked in unison and with extraordinary momentum.

There is no need for others to introduce him, Zhao Kong also knows that this middle-aged man must be Qiu Qianren, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang!

As the Iron Palm Gang entered, everyone in the hall found out.

The Giant Whale Gang on duty at the entrance of the lobby was already lying on the ground at the moment.

Zhao Kong looked at Qiu Qianren with a cold face, although he couldn't guess what reason he had prepared to deal with the Giant Whale Gang.

But if he is allowed to speak openly, I am afraid that today's succession ceremony will not be able to continue.

So in the face of Qiu Qianren who was walking towards him, Zhao Kong had no intention of backing down.

Instead, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he walked forward with a steady pace.

He was not in a hurry, he was not in a hurry, he was silent, but he had secretly gathered the mana of his whole body.

Qiu Qianren saw Zhao Kong's act as if he was angry, and the disdain in his eyes was obvious.

Compared with Zhao Kong, Qiu Qianren will not avoid it, laughing non-stop, and striding forward.

As the distance between the two got closer and closer, Qiu Qianren's body suddenly turned slightly, and he slammed into Zhao Kong with his left shoulder.

is ready to hit the new leader of the Giant Whale Gang in one fell swoop, so as to shock the people in the rivers and lakes who live there.

"Bang-"

With a muffled sound, the result was beyond everyone's expectations.

Qiu Qianren's sturdy body was actually hit by Zhao Kong and took three steps back!

Qiu Qianren, who barely stabilized his figure, looked shocked and angry.

He could never have imagined that his own strength had reached the innate realm.

If you hit Zhao Kong, who is less than twenty years old in front of you, you will be suppressed by the other party.

But Zhao Kong was different, he had already guessed that Qiu Qianren should be a master of the innate level.

In terms of his current overall combat strength, he may not be able to win Qiu Qianren.

Although the Taiji Xuanqing Dao is wonderful, Zhao Kong has only cultivated to the second level of Yuqing, and the amount of mana is far inferior to that of the innate master.

Once you can't take it in a short period of time, and you are dragged by Qiu Qianren until your mana is exhausted, it is almost certain to lose.

However, Zhao Kong knows Qiu Qianren's character, this is a villain who cherishes his life.

Therefore, before the official fight, he must first deter the other party and leave an invincible impression on Qiu Qianren.

Only in this way can we be invincible in the subsequent battles.

After the two collided, Zhao Kong's pace did not stop at all, ignoring the people in the rivers and lakes in the hall, and continued to walk forward without changing his face.

When he reached the door of the lobby, he picked up the helpers on the ground with his own hands and asked the others to carry them down for healing.

Then he turned around and said expressionlessly to Qiu Qianren, whose left arm was still trembling slightly.

"Gang Leader Qiu, if you have any dissatisfaction with our Giant Whale Gang, you can come and talk to me, the gang leader."

"Although Zhao is a junior, he will not back down as the leader of a gang."

"But you interrupted Zhao's succession ceremony and hurt my Giant Whale Gang."

"If you don't give an explanation of this matter, I'm afraid that others will think that my Giant Whale Gang is weak and can be bullied."
