<strong>Chapter 1152: Chapter 1152: Bold and Decisive Action</strong>


    Xiang Yu’s domineering attitude right after taking office was something nobody expected.


    Jin Guozhong on the side was a bit anxious; he was really worried that Xiang Yu might do something out of line.


    “Xiang Yu, don’t get excited, this matter…”


    Before he could finish his words, Xiang Yu quickly raised his hand to stop him. Xiang Yu looked sharply at Sky Thief Rat and said, “Do you have any objections to what I said?”


    “Yes,” Sky Thief Rat replied, looking at Xiang Yu with the same sharp gaze.


    “Yes, you have them, but don’t voice them, and certainly don’t act on them. I’m stating my case here; don’t me me for not warning youter,” Xiang Yu said forcefully.


    It was very quiet around; the atmosphere was a bit gloomy. At this point, Hong Jinbao stood up and said, “You all have your meeting, I’ll leave first.”


    Now that Hong Jinbao had stepped down, he didn’t want to be involved in these matters anymore, so he left everything to Xiang Yu.


    With Hong Jinbao gone, the atmosphere on site rxed somewhat.


    “The Sect Leader has left, so I’ll leave too,” Sky Thief Rat said, and then he was about to leave.


    At this time, Yan Qing also chimed in, “I don’t think this meeting can proceed, let’s all just disperse.”


    After saying this, he also prepared to stand up, when Xiang Yu suddenly said, “Think clearly, once you leave, don’te back.”


    “What do you mean?” asked Sky Thief Rat.


    “Your Hall Master doesn’t feel like working anymore, does he?” Xiang Yu said with a smile.


    “Whether I work or not, it’s not up to you,” Sky Thief Rat retorted firmly.


    Seeing the tension in the atmosphere, Yan Qing then sat back down again.


    Xiang Yu then stood up, walked over to Sky Thief Rat, patted him on the shoulder, and said slowly, “Holy Mouse Hall is a major hall within Hongmen, I don’t want anything to happen to you.”


    As Xiang Yu spoke, he looked around at the others before saying, “I hope everyone remembers what I just said, meeting adjourned.”


    After Xiang Yu finished speaking, he was the first to walk out.


    “What a joke,” seeing Xiang Yu walk out, Yan Qing then mmed the table and said.


    “I think he’s asking for trouble, hmph!” Sky Thief Rat said coldly.


    Several other Hall Masters expressed their dissatisfaction with Xiang Yu in their own ways. After all, Xiang Yu had just joined Hongmen, and now he suddenly became the Sect Leader, which made everyone a bit ufortable.


    Jin Guozhong and Poison Rose were a bit worried; after all, Xiang Yu was still too young and too arrogant.


    The two went to Hong Jinbao’s room, where Hong Jinbao was raising parrots and ying with them.


    “Sect Leader, I think this matter…”


    Hong Jinbao quickly raised his hand to stop them, then said with a rxed smile, “I’m no longer the Sect Leader, you can call me Hong Jinbao, or even Uncle, but not Sect Leader.”


    Jin Guozhong and the two were speechless, it was really hard to change the way they addressed him, so in the end, they just called him nothing.


    “Don’t you think this approach is a bit too hasty?” Jin Guozhong said.


    Poison Rose also nodded in agreement with Jin Guozhong’s opinion.


    Hong Jinbao shook his head and smiled, “Hongmen needs reform now, and Xiang Yu has the kind of courage it needs. I’m no longer capable, I’m too old to keep up with you young people. Ultimately, this society belongs to you.”


    Hong Jinbao’s words left the two speechless, they really wished for Hong Jinbao to take back control of Hongmen, but seeing his attitude, it seemed impossible.


    Both of them were longtime members of Hongmen, and now they had to fully support Xiang Yu.


    Xiang Yu whistled and returned to his room with a rxed expression; at that time Yuan Huai and others were sitting there.


    “Was it smooth?” Yuan Huai quickly stood up upon seeing Xiang Yu and said, having already known about Xiang Yu bing the Sect Leader.


    “Smooth,” Xiang Yu said briefly.


    Starting today, the news of Xiang Yu bing the Sect Leader of Hongmen would spread quickly. All Hongmen disciples would know immediately.


    The likes of Tie Zhuzi sitting there didn’t know what was going on; when they heard that Xiang Yu had be the Sect Leader, Tie Zhuzi nearly jumped up in excitement—this leap was indeed a bit toorge.


    While they were talking, a burly man knocked and entered.


    This person was a bit shorter than Tie Zhuzi, somewhat chubby, but very robust.


    “Sect Leader Xiang, I came to report to you,” the man said sincerely.


    Seeing this, Yuan Huai quickly introduced him, “This is Tao Dachang, Hong Jinbao’s top lieutenant, trustworthy. You can ask him anything you need.”


    From the first moment Xiang Yuid eyes on this guy, he felt he could be trusted, so he walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder, and said, “Come to my room.”


    Saying this, Xiang Yu walked to the inner room, and Tao Dachang followed him inside.


    Xiang Yu had many things he wanted to know; now as the Sect Leader of Hongmen, he had to take responsibility.


    Hong Jinbao had told him about the internal issues in Hongmen, and he had to clear them one by one. To secure external affairs, he had to stabilize the internal situation first.


    No one knew what Xiang Yu and Tao Dachang talked about, and about half an hourter, Tao Dachang walked out of the room and then left.


    After he left, Xiang Yu called Jin Guozhong over.


    When Jin Guozhong saw Xiang Yu again, he felt a bit awkward; Xiang Yu’s status change was indeed significant.


    “Xiang, Sect Leader Xiang,” Jin Guozhong said awkwardly.


    “Be natural, just call me Xiang Yu,” Xiang Yu directly said.


    Jin Guozhong quickly shook his head, “That won’t do, your name can’t be so casually used.”


    Seeing his insistence, Xiang Yu didn’t force it; after all, it was just a title and didn’t matter.


    “I want to reorganize Hongmen, do you have any good suggestions?” Xiang Yu asked Jin Guozhong.


    Jin Guozhong thought for a moment and said, “You’ve juste to Hongmen and aren’t yet familiar with everything. I think you should wait for a while before taking action; that might be better.”


    “There’s not much time left; we must reorganize now,” Xiang Yu said decisively.


    Jin Guozhong was a bit surprised; he didn’t understand what Xiang Yu meant by saying there wasn’t much time. He shook his head and said, “If you want to reorganize now, I can’t think of any solutions.”


    Xiang Yu smiled and said, “Don’t have any reservations. By calling you here today, it means Ipletely trust you.”


    Although Jin Guozhong had a favorable impression of Xiang Yu, since their interactions had been too short, he couldn’t reveal his innermost thoughts. If Xiang Yu betrayed him, he’d feel foolish.


    Seeing Jin Guozhong’s caution, Xiang Yu frankly said, “Hongmen is currently a mess because of a few parasites; I want to clear them out.”


    Xiang Yu’s words were blunt, indicating his intention to take action against the various halls. By saying this, it showed that he trusted Jin Guozhong.


    Jin Guozhong was moved and said, “Since you trust me this much, I would be less than human to keep holding back.”


    He paused for a moment and continued, “If we’re going to reorganize, we should be prepared for a bloody fight. I think the first ce to reorganize should be Holy Mouse Hall.”
