Chapter 49: Underlings and assignment
Chapter 49: Underlings and assignment
Truly a sight that made him want to vomit blood but then he thought about something, how he could forget all this time, he needed an army for when he would return to the Immortal world, and even here he didn't have to do everything himself so he needed some underlings.
All this time this idiots had given him so much opportunities to select some underlings for himself and start with his plan, the truth was that he wouldn't use this people in his army after all even if they started cultivating they would not reach high.
That's why he was going to use them to search for small little kids or more precisely for orphans that had talent in cultivation but also a good and loyal personality, they were the best resources this place could provide him.
After all China was one of the biggest and most populated countries in this planet and also one of the poorest so it was really easy to find orphans who wanted and fought for a better life and better conditions.
Added with his brainwashing since small he could create an army of Immortals and Gods for himself, after all he had all kinds of cultivation techniques, alchemic knowledge, talismans and everything else.
All he needed was the kids and other resources which he would get step by step. That's why right now he was kicking himself for not thinking of this before. So prepared with another mindset, he again carefully looked at the crowd of hoodlums without any fear and selected 5 among them.
In between these 5 was also that young man with fighting skills after all he needed someone capable to lead those other 4 guys.
Just like the previous time in 5 minutes all the crowd was resting unconscious on the ground while those 5 guys were still conscious and looking at him wearily, the two idiots had already left the place running just like the previous time.
Looking at the sour and bitter expressions of the 5 guys on the ground Tianlong Yun approached them and looking at them with a calm and firm expression he said,
Tianlong Yun:"You guys are better than the other trashes, I know you might have had some fighting spirit inside you after I would say these words that's why I beat all of you and started talking just now. But I really mean it when I say you are better than the others and I can give you an opportunity to improve."
Saying up to here he stayed quiet for a while letting his words sink on their brains and continued,
Tianlong Yun:"Of course this opportunity is not free and you need to pay for it, you need to work for me and do everything I ask of you whenever I ask it without making question otherwise.., well let just say the end won't be good for you."
Again letting his words sink in, he stayed quiet for a longer time and was watching at their expressions. At first they were angry because he was calling them trash but thinking better he had that right since he had knocked down more than 50 people in just 5 minutes, then they got happy at the thought of becoming better.
And finally they were undecided on what to choose after all this was a perfect use of the stick and carrot and they could think that someone with this kind of skills wasn't someone simple but at the end of the day they weren't good guys, they were hoodlums found on the streets ready to do anything for money.
Thinking up to here they looked each other in the eye and as if taking a group decision they said in unison,
All the 5:"We accept your conditions Young master, please take care of us."
Satisfied at their decision Tianlong Yun said coolly,
Tianlong Yun:"Very well you seem to have some brain and think about your future." Then he looked at the guy who knew how to fight well and said,
Tianlong Yun:"You karate kid over there what's your name." He could see them frowning at his insult but he didn't care at all, this was the truth and no matter what he said it didn't change so better be honest about it.
The black haired guy was a bit arrogant when he first saw this young boy staying with a calm look in front of the crowd earlier but seeing his skills and fighting power he knew that even his late master wasn't his opponent, so now with a reverent look he said,
Jiang Bo:"My name is Jiang Bo young master, I have trained in karate for 5 years but my master has already passed away and now I have become a hoodlum." He said the extra information with the hope of this young boy having a good impression on him, and it worked.
Looking at this group Tianlong Yun seemed a bit lightened at least that Jiang Bo was a smart guy and they could complete his assignments, thinking like this he said,
Tianlong Yun:"Very well, I am not going to make my identity known right now so you can continue to call me Young master, and your first mission would be to rent a warehouse in the city and turn it into a training ground, while recruiting orphans with good personality."
All the 5 guys were a bit startled they didn't expect this kind of assignment but they knew better than to make questions, in truth their only problem were the funds for such an operation.
Tianlong Yun seeing their expression realized their worries and said,
Tianlong Yun:"Jiang Bo will be your team leader so give your contact numbers to him and leave." One by one the 4 other guys did what he told them to and left, he didn't even ask for their names because for the moment it was useless.
Then looking at Jiang Bo he said with a firm and serious look on his face,
Tianlong Yun:"Follow me but firstly clean yourself I don't want to gather too much attention." Saying this he waited for some time for Jiang Bo to clean himself and started walking out of the dark alley and towards a ATM he had seen earlier.
Arriving at the ATM he took out 20.000 yuan and gave it to him and said,
Tianlong Yun:"Give me your number and take this money to use for your assignment, I don't think I have to remind you what would happen if you cross me, furthermore if you are tempted by this change then you will be useless to me in the future."
Giving his number to Tianlong Yun, Jiang Bo was a bit startled at seeing that much money but the words of Tianlong Yun woke him up and he said reverently,
Jiang Bo:"Don't worry young master, Jiang Bo will never disappoint you." And he took the money and with Tianlong Yun's permission he left the place and walked away in the darkness. He wasn't an idiot he knew that someone who could take so much money in one time and with those fighting skills wasn't someone simple.
Plus with the thinking of a bright future and this unique chance he got he made his resolve to complete the assignment this young master gave them and try to grab the bull by the horns and never let go of this opportunity.
Tianlong Yun wasn't worried that this guys would not keep their word, after all they had seen his fighting power and the money he gave them would shut them up, thinking he was someone they couldn't afford to offend.
Even by the small chance they crossed him and left with the money he didn't really care, after all that was only 20.000 yuan in the future that would be just changes for him and that didn't matter much to him. Of course this didn't mean he would leave the matter at that because he really hated those who betrayed him.
He had suffered betrayal once and would never permit himself to be betrayed a second time. If something like that happened then most probably the poor soul would disappear from the universe.
Thinking more about this it would be a waste of time, he better continue with his plan and go to his hotel room, to bath in the medicinal liquid. He still needed to cultivate and become stronger, because he knew that no matter how all the guys brought by the idiot duo were weaklings, there were real masters in this world.
Furthermore his goal was to make the Immortal world tremble at him, more precisely at his army and power, because he was thinking even if he became the most powerful in the Immortal world he would never become it's ruler, it was a pain in the ass being the ruler.
To him the ideal would be controlling everything he liked from the shadows while everyone didn't have any information about him. He wanted to live a happy life with his family. But that's a story for another time
