“Think about it carefully. Just a few days ago, you disgraced the son of the city lord. Let’s not talk about the others, let’s talk about Wei Baishou. With his vengeful personality, do you think he will let you off?
“A normal man is innocent, but a man with wealth is guilty. When you have the ability yet choose to do nothing, your ending is already destined.
“But Wei Zihan is different. She doesn’t have any helpers other than me. But it’s also because of this that if we can succeed, you will be the biggest contributor!
“So, think carefully.”
After saying that, Victor did not linger. He slowly stood up and prepared to leave.
However this time, it was Ren Pingsheng’s turn to take the initiative.
After thinking for a while, Ren Pingsheng suddenly realized that Victor’s words made sense. After living in White Dragon City for so many years, Wei Baishou’s reputation was visibly bad. Whether it was the outsiders or the locals of White Dragon City, they were all very afraid of him. Wherever he appeared, the atmosphere would become very tense.
Moreover, he had humiliated Wei Baishou in front of so many people. If he were to become the city lord, how could he let him go?
Even if Wei Baishou did not become the city lord and the position was inherited by the eldest son, he might still not be able to escape unscathed.
Thinking of this, Ren Pingsheng was a little shaken. He stared at Victor for a moment and said, “How can you guarantee that Wei Zihan will definitely get the position of the city lord?”
“It’s very simple, because I’m helping her.”
Victor’s answer was very confident, but Ren Pingsheng did not think that this was blind confidence.
He had also heard a little about the battle in front of Wei Zihan’s residence.
To be able to defeat so many people by himself was indeed powerful. Even if it was him, he would not be able to do it.
However, was choosing a side really the right thing to do?
“Forget it, I’m willing to make a bet with you. If Wei Zihan is able to obtain the city lord position, that would be great. However, if she isn’t able to do so, I’ll just treat it as my mistake.”
Ren Pingsheng sighed softly and agreed to Victor’s invitation.
He had no choice.
As the saying goes, it was easier to add flowers to the icing on the cake than to send charcoal in the snow. There were quite a number of experts under Wei Baishou and Wei Baizhuo. Even if he were to agree to their invitation, how much credit would he get in the end?
Therefore, this was not only to protect himself but also a huge gamble for Ren Pingsheng!
Success and fame. If he lost, his reputation would fall behind.
“A wise man submits to circumstances. You are very smart. If you reject me, I will definitely kill you to avoid trouble.”
Victor chuckled and patted Ren Pingsheng’s shoulder. He continued, “Alright, let’s go. Let’s go visit the others.”
“Who else?”
Ren Pingsheng was still very curious about his allies.
After all, since they had already joined Wei Zihan’s army, the stronger they were, the greater the benefits.
“Hmm… There are two more people. Tie Zhan and Feng Sidao who had won 100 battles.”
These two people were the ones who had rejected the city lord and the other children’s invitations at the tournament ten years ago. Now, they had also settled down in White Dragon City.
Of course, similar to Ren Pingsheng, before Victor, other people had also invited them, but without exception, they had all failed.
Ren Pingsheng did not think that Victor had the ability to persuade them, but on second thought, wasn’t he also persuaded by him?
He immediately felt more confident.
“What’s your plan?”
“Let’s take it one step at a time.”
Victor slowly stood up and led Ren Pingsheng to a dojo in White Dragon City.
This dojo was founded by Feng Sidao. It was quite famous in White Dragon City. Many foundation establishment realm cultivators would come here to cultivate. Therefore, Feng Sidao’s life was quite good.
However, Victor still had 80% confidence in persuading Feng Sidao.
“Zhan Yang Dojo. It has quite a good name.”
As Victor spoke, he pushed open the gate of the dojo, and a group of disciples entered his sight.
The dojo was like a small sect. Feng Sidao collected money and guided others in their cultivation. It was the best of both worlds.
Sensing that an outsider was visiting, Feng Sidao put down the ruler in his hand and turned to look at Victor and Ren Pingsheng.
“Why are you here?”
“I came to take a look.”
Ren Pingsheng and Feng Sidao had a pretty good relationship. As the sixth and ninth place winners ten years ago, the gap between the two was not too big. However, Ren Pingsheng had been indulging in debauchery all these years, but Feng Sidao was very hard-working, so now… Feng Sidao was evn stronger than Ren Pingsheng.
“Who is this?”
“Feng Sidao? I’m the No.1 on the list invited by Miss Wei Zihan. I’m here to invite you to join Miss Wei Zihan’s camp.”
“Why?”
“What do you mean?”
“Why should I help you?”
Feng Sidao glanced at Victor and seemed to have realized something. He dispersed his disciples and came to the two of them.
“Since Ren Pingsheng is with you, does that mean he has been convinced by you?”
“It’s obvious.”
“So, you think you can convince me too?”
“How can I know if I don’t try?”
Victor chuckled and took out his information. He said calmly, “Feng Sidao who had won 100 battles unscathed. A person from the Central Plains and a disciple of Thunder Cliff had a crush on the saintess of Thunder Cliff. The two of them eloped and angered the sect master of Thunder Cliff. He has ordered the two of you to be killed.”.
“In the end, the former saintess of Thunder Cliff died, but you survived. Is that true?”
Victor put away the information and smiled.
“It’s all those b*stards! If they didn’t snitch, how could the matter between me and Zhan Yang be discovered?!
“And the current Holy Maiden! She was the one who persuaded us to elope! In the end, the leader who arrested me and Zhan Yang was that woman!”
“It was a few days ago. I’m curious. Why did you reject their offer?”
“Why should I agree? I don’t want to get involved in their mess. I just want to protect my dojo.”
‘It’s too narrow! His vision is too narrow!’ Victor shook his head and continued, “Since you know that the current saintess of Thunder Cliff is the city lord’s wife, how long do you think your dojo will last if her child succeeds in becoming the city lord?”
“Zhanyang Dojo is too provocative.”
“Who can guarantee that it’s him?”
“So what if it’s not him? Thunder Cliff, Ao Lai Sect, Central Plains Sect Alliance, except for Wei Zihan, all of them have terrifying backgrounds. No matter who becomes the city lord, even if it was just to do Thunder Cliff a favor, do you think they won’t hand you over?
“To put it bluntly, the existence of your dojo, in Thunder Cliff’s eyes, is a provocation!
“You clearly don’t know that you are doomed. Do you think I’m harming you? I’m actually helping you! In half a year’s time, I’ll leave. At that time, you and Ren Pingsheng will be the most powerful subordinates under Wei Zihan. Although it’s a bit exaggerated to say this, it’s roughly what it means.
“At that time, the two of you will be sitting in Chang An’s seats!”
