The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 257: Breaking into the Heavenly Saber Association

Back when Tie Niu’s father, Wang Youli, was the president of the Heavenly Saber Association, there were four influential families within the association, namely the Liangs, the Chengs, the Shis, and the Jins. The older generation of these four surnames had fought alongside Wang Youli to establish their territory, working hard to secure a footing for the Heavenly Saber Association in Yun City.

Before Wang Youli grew tired of the underworld life and left Yun City, he temporarily handed over the position of association president to Jin Yongkang of the Jins, then completely vanished from everyone’s sight, retiring to the border’s Xiyuan Town.

The Liangs, the Chengs, the Shis, and the Jins—these four families wielded immense influence in the Heavenly Saber Association. Their older generation were brothers who fought side by side with knives in hand. Therefore, there wasn’t much opposition within the Heavenly Saber Association when Jin Yongkang temporarily took the position of its president.

However, many years earlier, Jin Yongkang had adopted a foster son named Jin Tianlong. After Jin Yongkang assumed the interim presidency of the Heavenly Saber Association, rumors swirled that Jin Tianlong used every trick in the book to seize power for himself within the association and relentlessly suppressed the Liangs, the Chengs, and the Shis, the three families with deep influence in the association.

It was said that the utterly heartless Jin Tianlong eventually murdered Jin Yongkang with his own hands. By then, he had already gained control of most of the Heavenly Saber Association’s forces and took the president’s position through tyranny.

Since Jin Tianlong became president of the Heavenly Saber Association, he stripped the Chengs and the Shis of their powers within the association one after another. Now, only the Liangs retained some influence, not because Jin Tianlong spared them out of kindness, but because the Liangs were well-prepared. They had taken preventive measures against Jin Tianlong when he first targeted them, allowing them to comfortably maintain their influence within the Heavenly Saber Association over the years.

Still, Jin Tianlong’s oppression of the Liangs never ceased. Lu Jiang, the person in charge of the Glorious Bar, was handpicked and prom

oted by the Liangs, who, while defending against Jin Tianlong, also cultivated their own forces within the Heavenly Saber Association in preparation for future needs.

After becoming the president of the Heavenly Saber Association, Jin Tianlong changed its modus operandi, flagrantly peddling drugs, and engaging in illegal activities, plunging Yun City into a haze of smoke and poison.

The only surviving family in the Heavenly Saber Association, the Liangs, was extremely dissatisfied with Jin Tianlong’s actions, but truly, they were willing but unable.

Dealing drugs was akin to persecuting the people of Huaxia Country! In the past, any association member found indulging in such harmful activities would have their hands chopped off and be expelled from the Heavenly Saber Association.

After listening to Lu Jiang outline the current general state of the Heavenly Saber Association, Ye Chenfeng understood that the association’s trouble stemmed from Jin Tianlong, a heartless man who had usurped the position of president. Of course, Ye Chenfeng felt obliged to eliminate such scum completely.

"Take me to the Heavenly Saber Association’s main headquarters now," Ye Chenfeng said casually. "The sooner I kill that bastard Jin Tianlong, the sooner I can take over the Heavenly Saber Association. I still have other matters to attend to!" Having the granddaughter of the wonton stall’s Old Wang entrusted to him, Ye Chenfeng naturally intended to visit Yun City’s First Middle School.

"Have you lost your mind? Kill Jin Tianlong? I fear once you enter the Heavenly Saber Association’s main headquarters, you won’t have a life to walk back out," Lu Jiang couldn’t comprehend where this young man’s confidence came from. Even if his strength was indeed formidable, the idea of entering the Heavenly Saber Association’s main headquarters to kill Jin Tianlong was unbelievable to Lu Jiang. Had he not witnessed Ye Chenfeng’s abilities, he would think Ye Chenfeng was a complete idiot.

"Whether I can walk out of the Heavenly Saber Association alive is no longer your concern," Ye Chenfeng stood up and cracked his neck, "Your responsibility is to take me to the association’s main headquarters. Don’t forget, had I not shown mercy just now, you and your dozen men would probably be on their way to meet King Yama."

Since the other party was intent on courting death, Lu Jiang saw no need to stop him. After leaving the Glorious Bar with Ye Chenfeng, Lu Jiang personally drove his Audi toward the Heavenly Saber Association’s main headquarters.

About an hour later, they arrived at the Heavenly Saber Association’s main headquarters.

The main headquarters of the Heavenly Saber Association was located in an enormous estate, guarded at the entrance by members of the association. Upon seeing Lu Jiang, the guards respectfully greeted, "Brother Lu."

Then he asked, "I don’t know what brought Brother Lu here today? The chairman and the others are having a meeting in the conference room! No one is allowed to disturb them during this period."

Those who were guarding the gate of the Heavenly Saber Association’s headquarters were naturally people of the chairman Jin Tianlong, and they knew Lu Jiang was from the Liangs. Over the years, there had been constant friction between the Liangs of the Heavenly Saber Association and chairman Jin Tianlong, and these gatekeepers were only superficially polite to Lu Jiang.

Upon hearing the words "no one is allowed to disturb," Lu Jiang’s face turned utterly gloomy. He was, after all, the head of a branch of the Heavenly Saber Association, wasn’t he? And now a few gatekeeping dogs were blocking his way? The fury inside him surged, and he bellowed, "All of you, get out of my way! Does Lu Jiang not even qualify to walk into the Heavenly Saber Association’s headquarters anymore?"

There were two reasons why Lu Jiang had so readily brought Ye Chenfeng to the Heavenly Saber Association’s headquarters. First, Ye Chenfeng’s demonstrated strength had truly intimidated him; second, as someone from the Liangs’ side of the Heavenly Saber Association, he naturally wouldn’t mind if something unfortunate happened to Jin Tianlong.

After all, if it came to blows, it was Ye Chenfeng who would take action. Even if Ye Chenfeng failed in the end, the Liangs would surely protect Lu Jiang. With this in mind, why not bring Ye Chenfeng along?

Ye Chenfeng didn’t have the patience to listen to these jerks dawdle. He made his move, knocking down the few gatekeeping dogs in front of him, and strolled leisurely into the Heavenly Saber Association’s headquarters.

"I’m afraid he’s probably the only person in the world who dares to barge into the Heavenly Saber Association’s headquarters alone; it’s simply the behavior of a madman," Lu Jiang murmured quietly as he watched Ye Chenfeng walk into the headquarters of the Heavenly Saber Association.

...

Inside the conference room of the Heavenly Saber Association’s headquarters.

Sitting at the head of the conference table was a man in his thirties or forties, puffing on a Cuban cigar with great interest as he looked at an old man seated closest to him. This man was Jin Tianlong, the chairman of the Heavenly Saber Association.

The old man Jin Tianlong was eyeing was none other than Liang Weiping, the Family Head of the Liangs and an elder who had built up the Heavenly Saber Association’s empire together with Wang Youli in the past.

"Uncle Liang, I think it’s about time for you to retire, isn’t it? Why hold onto so much power? The Heavenly Saber Association now belongs to the younger generation," said Jin Tianlong, leisurely drawing on his Cuban cigar.

"What do you mean by that, Jin Tianlong? Are you trying to seize the power within the Heavenly Saber Association from my father? Even if my father retires, the power should be controlled by me, his son, and it has nothing to do with you, Jin Tianlong," the thirty-five or thirty-six-year-old man sitting next to Liang Weiping said indignantly. He was Liang Weiping’s son, Liang Mufan.

"You can’t say that. As the current chairman of the Heavenly Saber Association, it’s my duty to control the association’s power, which will surely lead the association further. It’s definitely a good thing for the Heavenly Saber Association," said Jin Tianlong with a smile on his lips, but his eyes were filled with a sinister light.

"How can you have the nerve to say that? What have you turned the Heavenly Saber Association into over the years? If we continue like this, sooner or later the association will go downhill," Liang Mufan argued relentlessly.

"Isn’t the Heavenly Saber Association doing well under my leadership? The brothers are all living the good life, which is certainly better than the days of biting the bitter wind in the past. Times are changing, and we can’t stay stuck in the old ways. If we don’t venture into certain industries, other gangs in Yun City will, and missing out on profit is just foolish!" Jin Tianlong spoke through the smoke billowing from his mouth.

"Enough, Mufan, shut your mouth," Liang Weiping spoke up sharply, sighing in his heart. He thought to himself that his son, Liang Mufan, was too impetuous. What would happen if he really passed away in the future? Could Liang Mufan stand up to Jin Tianlong? If not, it might be better to let go sooner. Indeed, these years had been exhausting.
