At the same time, at the headquarters of the Caide Faction in Feng City, Xinghan spoke to Green Moon, "In my estimation, the Hua Family must be gathering their forces to strike us hard. Since that's the case, let's surprise them with some reinforcement."

"What kind of surprise?" Green Moon didn't understand Xinghan's meaning.

"In my view, Hua Liuyun must think that we are regrouping and preparing to counter-attack him. But I won't do that. Since our forces are not as large as theirs, if we wait for them to come knocking on our door, we'll be in trouble. Instead, let's turn the tables and take the initiative to attack them. Their size is both an advantage and a weakness. The fact that they have a large force means their internal affairs are complicated, making it difficult to coordinate their actions. We will exploit this weakness and strike at it. Moreover, they have numerous industries and won't dare to make any overt moves," Xinghan said with a cold smile.

"But they have many informants. If we take action, they will surely find out. Once they know and are prepared, we won't stand a chance," Green Moon expressed her concerns.

"That's why we need to be swift and decisive. We don't need too many people. Quality matters more than quantity. With fewer people, our targets will be smaller and less likely to be detected. Even if we are discovered, we can act swiftly and avoid being trapped. I want you to select a group of skilled experts and gather them with my subordinates to enter City A," Xinghan instructed with determination.

Seeing Xinghan's determined expression, Green Moon felt worried. After all, this was not a joking matter. But since Xinghan had made up his mind, there was nothing more to say. She also wanted to live a peaceful life without constantly worrying about being targeted by others.

That day, several groups of people appeared in City A. Each group consisted of a man and a woman, disguised as couples, infiltrating various industries owned by the Hua Family. These people were the elite members of the Long Sha Society and the skilled members of the Caide Faction. They followed Xinghan's arrangements and entered City A as couples.

Xinghan and Green Moon also posed as a couple and entered a run-down bar. The air inside was murky, and the place was crowded. Xinghan and Green Moon sat at a table, ordered some drinks, and started drinking slowly.

After a while, a woman approached their table.

"Boss, why are you here?" The woman almost exclaimed when she saw Green Moon, but she quickly suppressed her surprise.

"We'll talk about that later. Sit down first. Is there any news from the Hua Family?" Green Moon hurriedly asked.

The woman sat next to Xinghan. She leaned toward Green Moon and Xinghan as if they were old friends. She nervously looked around to ensure that nobody was paying attention before speaking in a low voice, "I just received some information and was thinking of finding a way to tell you."

"What's the news?" Xinghan asked.

"Who is he? Why don't I know him?" The woman looked at Xinghan with a puzzled expression.

"He is Xinghan, the leader of the Long Sha Society! If you have something to say, say it quickly. We are all on the same side, so it's fine," Green Moon interjected.

"Oh, I see. I just found out too. The Hua Family has dispatched a large number of people. They left early this morning," the woman said.

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

"Ah, where did they go?" Green Moon was shocked.

"After careful investigation, I found out that their people split into two groups. One group seems to have gone to Feng City, and they probably arrived by now. The other group seems to be heading south. I don't know where they're going," the woman explained.

"Ah, Feng City! They must be going to deal with us," Green Moon exclaimed, her face pale. Their elites had already left, leaving them without the ability to defend themselves.

"We have to go back immediately. Master Xing, I think we should return now; it will be too late if we wait any longer," Green Moon said, about to stand up.

"Don't be hasty. We need to carefully consider our next move. Going back right now won't help," Xinghan pulled Green Moon back, speaking calmly. Xinghan hadn't expected Hua Liuyun to act so swiftly.

"But if we stay here, our base will be taken over," Green Moon anxiously said.

"But going back now won't make a difference, will it?" Xinghan calmly responded.

"But it's better than staying here and doing nothing," Green Moon argued.

"Think about it. They left early this morning. If they had any plans, they have probably executed them by now. If we go back, we'll only be left to clean up the aftermath. It doesn't matter when we clean up the aftermath; what matters is that we're here in their territory while the majority of their forces are away. Isn't that right?" Xinghan analyzed.

"Yes, but what can we do? Do you know where Hua Liuyun went and what he is doing?" Xinghan didn't directly answer but asked the woman.

"I do know. He went to Feng City," the woman replied.

"Good. In that case, I suggest we split our forces. One group stays here to cause trouble, while the other group waits on the route from Feng City to our faction's base. I estimate they will be returning soon. Regardless of the situation in Feng City, they won't have an easy time. We will wait for them to come to us and give Hua Liuyun a painful blow. I want to see who the true victor will be, who will have the last laugh!" Xinghan's voice was cold, exuding a chilling aura.

Upon hearing Xinghan's words, both Green Moon and the woman couldn't help but shudder. They didn't dare to say anything further.

Xinghan looked around and said, "Very well, let the battle begin here. Green Moon, gather all our people here."

As Green Moon and the woman left, Xinghan walked up to the bar counter and said, "Where is your boss? Call him over to see me!"

In no time, the boss was summoned. Xinghan didn't even spare him a glance as he took out a thick stack of money from his pocket and handed it to the boss, saying, "This is for today. I want the place cleared within five minutes."

Seeing the boss about to say something, Xinghan pulled out a gun from his pocket and placed it on the counter, saying, "If it's not enough, this should do the trick."

The boss's face turned pale, and he was on the verge of exclaiming in shock. However, due to the loud noise in the bar, no one noticed his surprise. Xinghan calmly put away the gun and said, "If you're a smart person, you didn't see anything and nothing happened. Otherwise, you can imagine what might happen to you."

The boss's face turned even paler, and large drops of sweat streamed down his face, but he didn't dare to wipe them. He couldn't say a word, only nodding repeatedly.

"Good. From now on, within five minutes, I want to see not a single idler here. Otherwise, I won't need to explain the consequences. You can imagine them yourself," Xinghan said.

After speaking, Xinghan didn't pay any more attention to the boss. He walked back to the table and started drinking slowly.

Indeed, in less than five minutes, the bar was completely empty. Not a single idler remained. The boss cautiously approached Xinghan and said, "Sir, there's no one left now. Do you have any other requests?"

"You've done well. I have no more requests. If some people come looking for you later, tell your comrades not to obstruct them. It would be best if they disappeared. But let me make it clear: if the police or any other trouble arrives later, not only will your establishment not be safe, but your head won't be either," Xinghan warned.

"Yes, no problem!" The boss agreed immediately and promptly disappeared.

Before long, Green Moon brought all the people inside.

Under Xinghan's command, the members who had arrived in City A gathered at the bar. After some coordination, they divided their tasks methodically and set off.
