Chicken followed closely behind, still unable to contain his excitement, chattering on and on: "If this operation succeeds, we can return to Taiwan with our heads held high! The leader will definitely give us an important position, and we might even be promoted to hall masters!"
"Su Zhe is finished this time. With Taiyi, the god of death, in charge, he's no match for us! I've disliked Su Zhe for a long time, and this time I'll definitely teach him a lesson!"
Ding Yao remained silent throughout, walking towards the airport bus with a blank expression.
Pheasant was a little confused, and caught up with Ding Yao cautiously, asking, "Sister Yao, you don't seem very happy? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ding Yao said calmly, "It's nothing. I just think it's best not to be too happy before you succeed. As things stand, we don't know what changes might occur on Su Zhe's side."
Upon hearing this, the pheasant felt somewhat embarrassed and couldn't continue to get excited.
He chuckled twice and said, "Haha, Sister Yao is right. It's too early to be happy. Everything should be done step by step."
Ding Yao didn't reply, but silently boarded the bus, sat down, and closed her eyes to rest.
Pheasant could only suppress his excitement and obediently get into the car.
The two men remained silent as they arrived at the airport, where they led the Triad members onto a plane bound for Hong Kong.
Although the pheasant was incredibly excited, seeing that Ding Yao wasn't in high spirits, he could only suppress his inner elation and silently look forward to victory in this battle.
The plane soon arrived at Hong Kong Airport.
Chicken and Ding Yao led more than 20 members of the Sanlian Gang out of the airport gate, where several vans had been waiting for some time.
"Brothers, get in the car. We're heading straight to the Hung Hing triad headquarters," Chicken waved and gave the order.
The Sanlian Gang members filed into the cars, with Chicken and Ding Yao sitting in the first one.
"Drive!" the pheasant shouted.
The convoy honked its horns and sped up, quickly leaving the airport and heading straight for downtown Hong Kong.
An hour later, the convoy carrying members of the Triads arrived at the Hung Hing triad headquarters in the Bay Area.
Pheasant jumped out of the car first and strode into the building with his head held high.
Ding Yao led the Sanlian Gang's underlings behind them.
Upon arriving at the conference room on the top floor, they found Jiang Tiansheng already waiting there for quite some time.
Chapter 139 Discussing the Plan! The Terrifying Warrior!
"You two have arrived just in time!"
Jiang Tiansheng warmly greeted them, shaking hands and exchanging pleasantries with Shanji and Ding Yao.
“I’ve had my men settle these brothers from the Sanlian Gang in. You can rest for a bit, and we’ll have a meeting later to discuss the battle plan,” Jiang Tiansheng said.
"Okay, thank you for the arrangements, Master Jiang. We'll go rest for a bit, see you later," Pheasant replied.
“Brother Taiyi has been waiting for you in the top-floor luxury suite for quite some time. I’ll take you to meet him now,” Jiang Tiansheng said.
"Great! With the Taiyi Killing God here, victory is almost guaranteed this time!" the pheasant said excitedly.
Ding Yao remained expressionless and did not respond.
“Brother Taiyi is highly skilled in martial arts and will surely be able to easily defeat Su Zhe,” Jiang Tiansheng echoed.
The three arrived at the elevator, and Jiang Tiansheng pressed the button for the top floor.
With a "ding," the elevator doors opened, and they arrived at the door of the top-floor luxury suite.
"Brother Taiyi, Brother Shanji and Sister Dingyao have come to see you," Jiang Tiansheng said loudly.
Taiyi's lazy voice came from inside the suite: "I know, let them in."
Jiang Tiansheng opened the door for Shanji and Ding Yao, and the three of them entered the spacious suite's living room.
Taiyi, dressed in a white silk robe, leaned back on the sofa, looking relaxed and carefree.
"Brother Taiyi, good day. We've come to pay our respects." Shanji stepped forward, shook hands, and exchanged pleasantries.
Taiyi nodded slightly, his gaze falling on Ding Yao, a hint of interest in his eyes.
Ding Yao gave him a cold look, her face expressionless.
"You all rest first, we'll discuss the battle plan in detail later," Taiyi said, then gestured for them to leave.
Chicken and the others said their goodbyes and left, returning to their rooms downstairs.
After meeting Taiyi, Shanji became even more convinced that the operation was on the verge of success.
He was incredibly excited and couldn't wait to confront Su Zhe head-on.
The group sat down and began to discuss how to deal with Su Zhe.
Jiang Tiansheng said, "I've learned that Su Zhe has two terrifying generals under his command, Yu Huatian and Feng Yuxiu. They are highly skilled in martial arts, and we probably can't win by just fighting them head-on."
Taiyi dismissively said, "Them? They're just bedbugs. I can handle them all by myself."
Jiang Tiansheng hurriedly explained, "Brother Taiyi, we also believe in your abilities. But to be absolutely certain, we still need a more prudent battle plan."
"I think we should go straight for the kill, gather all our forces and attack Su Zhe directly, eliminating him in one fell swoop," Shanji said, slamming his fist on the table.
“That’s too risky. Su Zhe has two more formidable generals under his command,” Jiang Tiansheng said, shaking his head.
"They are nothing to fear as long as I take action," Taiyi said dismissively.
"But a direct confrontation is too risky. It would be better to set up an ambush and lure Su Zhe into a trap," Ding Yao analyzed.
"It's not hard to spot an ambush; in fact, it's easy to alert the enemy," the pheasant said.
"What should we do then? Are we just going to let Su Zhe go?" Jiang Tiansheng asked anxiously.
"I think a one-on-one fight is the safest option. Those with better skills should directly challenge Su Zhe," Ding Yao said.
“Yes, a one-on-one fight is a good way to avoid direct confrontation,” Jiang Tiansheng nodded.
"Since it's a one-on-one fight, I'll be the one to issue the challenge to Su Zhe!" Shanji said, patting his chest.
"You? I'm afraid Su Zhe wouldn't even take you seriously," Ding Yao questioned.
"As long as I issue a challenge in the name of the Sanlian Gang, Su Zhe will never back down," Chicken said confidently.
“Brother Shanji, that’s a good idea. You write a challenge to Su Zhe and ask him to fight one-on-one,” Jiang Tiansheng interjected.
“No problem! Leave it to me!” said the pheasant.
"I will secretly help you then, and take Su Zhe's dog life directly," Taiyi sneered.
"Alright! It's decided then! I'll draft the challenge right away!" said Pheasant.
After much discussion, they finally decided to take a more conservative approach: Chicken would issue a challenge to Su Zhe in the name of the Sanlian Gang, luring him to a one-on-one duel.
The pheasant said happily, "I guarantee that Su Zhe will not cower in fear after receiving my challenge!"
Jiang Tiansheng analyzed, "This way we can avoid facing both Yu Huatian and Feng Yuxiu at the same time as much as possible. As for Su Zhe, Taiyi will definitely win in a one-on-one fight."
Taiyi snorted coldly: "Su Zhe is nothing. I can defeat him with a simple sneeze. You're overthinking it."
No one responded.
Especially Jiang Tiansheng and Shanji, who had personally witnessed the terror of Yu Huatian and Feng Yuxiu.
Of course, it's not appropriate to bring this up in this setting.
I was afraid of upsetting Taiyi.
Jiang Tiansheng hurriedly instructed Shanji to draft a challenge and then sent it to Su Zhe's headquarters.
The pheasant wrote casually on the paper: "Su Zhe, our enmity is irreconcilable. We shall duel at Feie Mountain at dusk three days from now! Let's settle this once and for all! Life or death is in the hands of fate! If you have the guts, come and fight!!"
After writing the challenge, the pheasant added a note: "To avoid trouble, it is only allowed to fight one-on-one, and no underlings are allowed to assist!"
After writing the challenge, Shanji said smugly, "I don't think Su Zhe, with his arrogant and foul temper, will refuse my challenge! When Brother Taiyi makes his move, he will surely die!"
Ding Yao glanced at Taiyi silently, her eyes unfathomable.
Jiang Tiansheng repeatedly agreed and ordered his men to deliver the challenge letter to Su Zhe of Dongxing.

Chapter 140 Ding Yao's Dilemma! What to Do?
The challenge was quickly delivered to Su Zhe.
Su Zhe read the challenge letter aloud and burst into laughter.
"This pheasant is far too ambitious, daring to challenge me to a one-on-one duel? Who does he think he is?"
Su Zhe casually tossed the challenge aside and laughed, "With his pathetic skills, I don't even need to warm up. I'll just slap him to death. This embarrassing challenge is not worth mentioning at all."
Jimmy, standing nearby, advised, "Brother, I think the Triads are deliberately trying to lure you in. Chicken's kung fu is mediocre; he couldn't possibly be this arrogant. The Triads might have sent a master operative to ambush you, and Chicken is just bait."
Yu Huatian chimed in, "Brother Jimmy is right. We must be on high alert and be wary of the Sanlian Gang's ambush."
Feng Yuxiu laughed heartily after hearing this: "What's there to be wary of? Even if the Sanlian Gang sends some killing god, I, Feng Yuxiu, will never avoid a fight! I welcome all who come; if they wish to fight, then I will!"
After listening to his subordinates' analysis, Su Zhe pondered for a moment and said, "Your concerns are valid. We must be cautious in dealing with the Three Alliance's provocations. However, I will not be cowardly enough to avoid Chicken's challenge. Since he has the guts to issue a challenge, let him taste his own medicine!"
After saying that, Su Zhe instructed Jimmy: "Go and find out what the Sanlian Gang is up to in Hong Kong recently. See if there is anything amiss with them, and then report back to me."
Jimmy went off to carry out the mission as instructed.
Su Zhe then turned to Feng Yuxiu and Yu Huatian and said, "Brother Yu, you and Jimmy stay at headquarters to prevent that bastard Jiang Tiansheng from using a diversionary tactic to attack our headquarters while I'm away."
“Brother Feng, come with me to Feie Mountain. I want to see what this pheasant is up to and why he dares to challenge me! Even if the Sanlian Gang really sent experts to ambush me, with you here, I will feel more at ease.”
