Chapter 179: Luckily, You're My 3rd Brother! _2
So how are we going to handle this? Do we need our third brother's sect to step in?
All sorts of doubts and worries appeared in his mind.
Meanwhile, Yuchi laughed and said:
"If I'm not mistaken, the Cloud Mountain Sect intends to kill me and then seize the business association."
Wei Zhe gasped suddenly.
He looked at Yuchi in disbelief, unable to see any fear on his third brother's face.
To think that the other party is a sect, and they're really coming to kill someone?
"Third brother, don't we have the government for protection!" Wei Zhe blurted out.
Previously, Chen Guangsheng from the Celestial Capital Department had already said that Xufu Town was under their protection and warned the Cloud Mountain Sect to behave themselves.
"Could it be that the Cloud Mountain Sect dares to directly defy the government and isn't afraid of an investigation?"
Faced with his elder brother's reply, a knowing look appeared in Yuchi's eyes.
It seemed his brother's views on Xufu Town's Four Major Institutions were similar to his own.
Naive.
"We thought the government in Xufu Town could protect us from the Cloud Mountain Sect's attacks."
"We thought they didn't have the guts, and we could do business with them peacefully."
Yuchi said first.
"Yeah, yeah." Wei Zhe immediately responded.
"In reality?"
"In reality, the institutions in Xufu Town are worthless."
Yuchi made a startling statement.
Wei Zhe immediately glanced around, and after confirming no one was there, he nervously said to Yuchi:
"Third brother, you can't speak carelessly like this. The government is the government, we can't be enemies with them."
"Haha." Yuchi couldn't help but laugh.
Right now, explaining in detail what happened in Jiangzhou City was unnecessary, so he simply said:
"Brother, trust me, the institutions in Xufu Town are just here for a joke."
"The threats they can handle are just simple small gang attacks; they can't contend with a sect."
"So keeping them around feels like deceiving ourselves."
Isn't it? If we had believed in Chen Guangsheng, the County Magistrate, and the advisor, Yuchi would have been doomed already.
As for when Yun Chun came to Xufu Town, and the Celestial Capital Department spoke up... upon reflection...
It's likely that Chen Guangsheng was just playing dumb at the time.
Looking back, it feels like passing the buck.
At the time, Chen Guangsheng said that if Yuchi were in danger, it would certainly be the Cloud Mountain Sect's doing.
At first glance, it seemed like a threat, but thinking carefully, it felt like a hint to Yun Chun.
Could it be interpreted that if Yuchi really encountered trouble, it had nothing to do with the Celestial Capital Department, and the Cloud Mountain Sect didn't have the guts to do it?
Is there a logic here that seems like shielding the Cloud Mountain Sect?
The logic is clumsy and unreasonable, but for these people, as long as they've positioned themselves, it's enough.
As for what really happens, who cares?
"Those guys."
"Drinking and eating with us is fine, but counting on them to help us is just wishful thinking."
Yuchi casually confirmed.
Wei Zhe listened, nodding repeatedly.
He didn't know why his third brother had such thoughts, nor did he know what exactly happened in Jiangzhou City.
But he was willing to trust his third brother.
This really is family, blood is thicker than water. If you don't trust your own family, there's simply no one else to trust.
"So what about the Cloud Mountain Sect, should we take any action?"
"You could be in danger."
Wei Zhe was very worried about his third brother.
Even if his third brother wasn't the head of the business association, just an ordinary third brother, he'd surely be worried if his brother was in danger of being killed.
Over the past year and a half, he might have spoken harshly, causing their relationship to be a bit strained.
But now, the relationship between the two brothers was very harmonious.
And furthermore...
And most importantly, it's the Cloud Mountain Sect.
But Yuchi casually said, "The Cloud Mountain Sect is already finished."
Wei Zhe, "?"
After being stunned for a moment.
Wei Zhe's eyes widened instantly, looking at the young man in front of him like a startled owl.
"Damn, is the Cloud Mountain Sect gone?" Wei Zhe's tone was tinged with fear and shock.
"Yes."
"The Cloud Mountain Sect has been almost wiped out by some small tactics I used."
"They are now too preoccupied with their own issues to bother about our association; they need to worry about being swallowed by other sects."
Yuchi poured his elder brother a cup of tea to calm his nerves.
What kind of small tactics could achieve something like this, this is terrifying!
Then, as Wei Zhe was still in shock, Yuchi leisurely said:
"Anyway, I have some friends in Jiangzhou City."
"Quite a few drinking buddies within the Four Major Institutions that I can actually talk to."
"Not to mention, there's a big sister helping me out, with all sides involved, the Cloud Mountain Sect is nothing to worry about."
Quite a nothing to worry about!
The young man's arrogance is something else!
Wei Zhe's current mood... his third brother can discuss such frightening topics so effortlessly!
