Hearing Zhou Jian's words, the other five people, including Qu Ming and Qu Ming, all turned to look at Lin Danzi. After all, Wu Yan was the vice leader of the Tiger Gang, and a few of the upper echelons of the Green Bamboo Gang had greeted him before. Perhaps it was because of the dispute between the two gangs, or perhaps it was because of the cooperation between the two factions, but everyone present was familiar with Wu Yan.
Qu Ming and the others also clearly knew that Wu Yan was the deputy chief of the Tiger Gang in their hearts, and the first moment they entered the hall, Qu Ming and the others saw Wu Yan, and they were puzzled over the appearance of Wu Yan, the deputy chief of the Tiger Gang, in the hall of the Green Bamboo Gang, but seeing that their chief Lin Danzi did not explain, they tactfully did not inquire about it. Now that Zhou Jian had asked them about their doubts, Qu Ming and the others naturally waited for Lin Danzi's explanation.
"To think that Vice Division Chief Zhou asked. Then I might as well introduce it to everyone." Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Lin Danzi could not help but frown. However, when he thought about it again, he felt relieved that he would have to explain this matter clearly sooner or later.
Lin Danzi stood up and solemnly introduced to everyone, "This is the former Red Leaf Town Tiger Gang's Branch Lord Wu Yan. I believe everyone is familiar with him."
The few of them looked at Wu Yan with vigilance. After all, Wu Yan, as the vice division leader of Red Leaf Town's Tiger Gang, also had a high position and power in the Tiger Gang. There was no reason for him to betray the Tiger Gang.
"Brother Wu, it seems that everyone has some doubts regarding your arrival. Brother Wu, why don't you explain it to everyone yourself?" Seeing everyone's expression, Lin Danzi seemed to have understood something. He turned to Wu Yan and inquired.
Giving a respectful salute, Wu Yan stood out and glanced at the people seated in the hall. He then softly said, "I, Wu Yan, have already lost all relations with the Tiger Gang last night. Today, I have also decided to officially join the Green Bamboo Gang, and Helmsman Lin Danzi is also a wise and cheerful person, he has also agreed to join the Green Bamboo Gang."
His words stirred up a thousand ripples. Although everyone had more or less made some guesses when they saw Wu Yan standing there, they still had a feeling of disbelief when they heard Wu Yan announce that he had left the Tiger Gang and joined the Green Bamboo Gang.
After all, Wu Yan used to be the vice division master of the Red Leaf Town's Tiger Gang. In the Red Leaf Town's Tiger Gang, he was almost a person below and above the hundreds of gang members.
Seeing everyone's shocked expression, Wu Yan bitterly laughed and also said: "Under normal circumstances, I absolutely cannot join the Green Bamboo Gang. However, the new branch leader of the Tiger Gang, Lin Qing, has gone too far and continues to stay there."
Seeing the interest on everyone's faces, Wu Yan continued, "The new Branch Lord of the Tiger Gang, Lin Qing, on the first day of taking office, came up with a reason to change my position as the Vice Division Head, which is obvious example of killing a chicken to a monkey, and I became Lin Qing's target and continued to leave the Tiger Gang. I really can't think of any future fun, and what's more, you might become Lin Qing's target."
After listening to Wu Yan's explanation, Zhou Jian nodded his head. However, the doubt in his eyes did not decrease, but instead became even more intense.
"Brother Wu Yan, it's not that I suspect you, but just that, it doesn't mean that you really broke away from the Tiger Gang. What if this is just a trick you're playing with the newcomer Lin Qing, the Branch Lord?" Zhou Jian said in a deep voice, his eyes staring at Wu Yan, his palm pressing lightly on the sharp sword at his waist, it seemed that if Wu Yan gave a bad answer, Zhou Jian would destroy Wu Yan.
"If I were to say that I almost killed the newly appointed Branch Lord Lin Qing with a single sword strike, would Vice Division Chief Zhou still suspect me?" Seeming to know what Zhou Jian was worried about, Wu Yan added.
"Hmph, anyone can say that, but who knows if it's true or not. Even I would say that I almost killed Helmsman Lin Qing!" Zhou Jian laughed, looking straight at Wu Yan.
Upon hearing these words, Wu Yan bitterly laughed and looked towards Lin Danzi.
"Wu Yan almost killed the new Branch Lord of Red Leaf Town's Tiger Gang, Lin Qing. I can prove this." Lin Danzi stood up and said.
"How is this possible"? Zhou Jian said.
"I can guarantee that Wu Yan will sincerely join my Green Bamboo Gang. If any consequences occur, I, Lin Danzi, will be responsible for them." Lin Danzi seemed to be able to see the doubt in Zhou Jian's heart and solemnly said.
Zhou Jian let out a cold snort. He stared closely at Lin Danzi, as if he wanted to detect something.
Lin Danzi's eyes were calm and his face was expressionless. With his hands behind his back, he gave off a sage-like feeling.
"This is the promise of your Lin Danzi, if one day something happens, don't blame me for being heartless." As the two looked at each other, the atmosphere in the hall instantly turned silent. After a long while, Zhou Jian finally lost.
After all, the two of them had fought for power for a long time, and it had always been Lin Danzi who had the upper hand. Now that there was an expert like Wu Yan, Lin Danzi's power had grown by leaps and bounds, and Zhou Jian could not help but be wary of him.
"Please rest assured Vice Division Chief Zhou. I may be slightly weaker in terms of other abilities, but my eyes will not be blurry or unfocused." Lin Danzi promised with a smile on his face.
Wu Yan, who was standing at the side, was also touched when he heard this. Back then, at the critical moment when Lin Danzi and Lin Qing were fighting, he had betrayed the Tiger Gang and joined Lin Danzi in a sneak attack on Lin Qing.
Other than the fact that he didn't think highly of the future of the Tiger Gang and the fact that Lin Qingcheng had lost her position as the Vice Branch Lord due to anger, wasn't it because of Lin Danzi's charisma as well?
Seeing that Wu Yan had already joined the Green Bamboo Gang, Zhou Jian felt unresigned in his heart, but he could not do anything about it. He understood that with a new expert like Wu Yan, Lin Danzi's authority in Red Leaf Town's Green Bamboo Gang would be even higher, and he would have to rely on his own breathing in the future. Although he and Lin Danzi had been competing for power for a long time, although he looked calm on the surface, he had fought many times in the dark and the enmity between them was not resolved so easily.
Seeing that Zhou Jian seemed to have given up on obstructing Wu Yan from joining the Green Bamboo Gang, Lin Danzi could not help but feel slightly relieved. After all, although he was the Branch Lord of the Green Bamboo Gang in Red Leaf Town, the Division was not his only word. Even if it was not his own words, Lin Danzi could not leave Zhou Jian, Qu Ming, and the others' support and help in dealing with Lin Qing and the Tiger Gang behind him.
