Chapter 179: The Death of the Giant Whale Gang Leader! An Extremely Powerful Enemy!_3Sikong Wen sighed as he spoke, “Last time, I heard that Little Brother Su had impersonated Zhan Er and helped him deal with the threat from Meng Sang.”
Su Changkong listened silently.
Sikong Wen continued with a sigh, “By now, you must have heard about the situation within the Giant Whale Gang. Zhan Er used to have a considerable reputation within the gang but is now missing, presumed dead. Meanwhile, Meng Sang is full of ambition. Although he has not yet made a move, I believe he is waiting for things to settle down before he strikes, seizing control of the great power of the Giant Whale Gang.”
Su Changkong was well aware of this. In recent days, Meng Sang had kept a surprisingly low profile, not expressing many opinions, but this was just to avoid suspicion and idle gossip.
Many suspected that the incident at Blue Rain Sea might be a problem caused by Meng Sang’s side. Meng Sang wouldn’t act openly at such a time when he was under close scrutiny.
But once some time passed and the storm had settled, with Sikong Zhan gone, almost no one in the Leader Faction could compete with Meng Sang. At that time, it would be natural for him to ascend to the position of Gang Leader!
“Couldn’t this situation be resolved if Gang Leader Sikong Yong came out of seclusion? With his prestige, where would Meng Sang dare to act recklessly? With just one word, he could unify the Giant Whale Gang!”
Su Changkong couldn’t help but voice the doubt in his heart, a doubt shared by many within the Giant Whale Gang.
The biggest reason for the current situation of the Giant Whale Gang was that Gang Leader Sikong Yong had been in seclusion for many years, without any news, leading others to become suspicious.
Sikong Wen’s expression changed, and he opened his mouth, trying to think of what to say. Sikong Huang, on the other hand, said, “Grandfather, let me tell him. He is not an outsider! There’s no harm in telling him!”“Alas,” Sikong Wen sighed and shook his head in silence but did not stop Sikong Huang. He understood that if he wanted Su Changkong to help the Sikong Family, he had to show sincere trust by telling him all the key details, otherwise there was no hope!
Sikong Huang looked at Su Changkong, her face tinged with sadness, “It’s not that my father doesn’t want to emerge from seclusion to manage the gang’s affairs, it’s that he can’t, because… he has passed away!”
“The Gang Leader… is dead?”
These words were undoubtedly like a bolt from the blue sky. Even though Su Changkong had his suspicions, he still froze, shocked and astonished.
Sikong Yong had been in seclusion for many years, and there had been many speculations about it, such as mishaps in practicing martial arts, becoming possessed by devils, or perhaps he wasn’t in the Giant Whale Gang at all and had gone elsewhere to travel, to seek a breakthrough.
Some had even speculated that Sikong Yong might no longer be alive, but this seemed implausible.
Sikong Yong was still in his prime years, at the peak of his life, and his martial arts were so powerful that he was considered one of the top masters in Ink Forest Prefecture City. Who could possibly threaten him? If he had fought with a master and got injured or died, the news would have spread far and wide!
But now Sikong Huang had personally revealed Sikong Yong’s situation; he hadn’t been in the critical moments of practicing his martial arts, nor had he encountered any misfortune in his training. The reason he hadn’t appeared publicly for five to six years was simple: he had died!
Coming from anyone else, this fact would be met with skepticism, but Sikong Huang was Sikong Yong’s own daughter, lending credibility to her words.
“How did the Gang Leader die? There can’t be more than a handful of people in Ink Forest Prefecture City who could threaten him with his abilities, right?”
Su Changkong couldn’t help but press for answers. Sikong Yong was dead, but what had led to his death?
Sikong Huang clenched her silver teeth, “He… was murdered. It happened on a night seven or eight years ago when I was still young. My father suddenly sensed something and left the Giant Whale Gang all alone, only to return home quietly three days later.”
“At that time, my father… was seriously injured, covered in blood, his internal organs shattered, with nearly half of his heart missing, countless broken bones throughout his body, and innumerable wounds and cracks on his skin. He barely made it home on his last breath… to say goodbye to my brother and me.”
Sikong Huang’s face showed a mix of anger and fear.
In Sikong Huang’s eyes, Sikong Yong was undoubtedly a legendary figure in Ink Forest Prefecture City, renowned since his youth and respected for his fighting abilities. Anyone who mentioned Sikong Yong would speak with utmost reverence for his power.
Yet such a man, in his prime and counted among the city’s most powerful, had met with a formidable opponent, returned home gravely injured, barely held on just to get home, and before he could speak two words, succumbed to his deadly wounds and died on the spot!
This left an indelible mark on Sikong Huang, who had seen her seemingly invincible father die before her eyes.
Sikong Wen, too, was full of sorrow and gravity, “Yong Er’s death was unexpected for everyone. At that time, Zhan Er and Huanger were too young to take on great responsibilities, so I strictly ordered the Sikong Family to keep this news sealed, only telling the outside world that Yong Er was in seclusion, aiming for a higher realm!”
“Who in the world could have killed Gang Leader Sikong Yong?”
Su Changkong was filled with shock. In the Giant Whale Gang, he had heard countless stories of Sikong Yong’s strength and prestigious reputation.
Having cultivated the Whale Technique to an immensely advanced level, every time he engaged in battle, the outcome was almost a crushing victory.
Yet such a figure, on one night seven or eight years ago, had fought an unknown powerful enemy, been defeated, and died from his wounds!
The reason for keeping his death from the public was that Sikong Yong’s demise was a matter of great importance. If it became known, it would undoubtedly cause upheaval and give opportunists a chance to strike, and that’s why it was kept secret.
The original plan was for Sikong Zhan to grow a little more before he took over the position of Gang Leader, but now, the once well-behaved Meng Sang had revealed his wolfish ambition, opposing the Sikong Family at every turn.
Now, Sikong Zhan’s whereabouts were unknown following the Blue Rain Sea incident.
Sikong Wen shook his head and sighed, “The identity of the assailant who severely injured Yong Er is unknown. Even if his identity were known… revenge would likely be impossible.”
Anyone capable of killing Sikong Yong must possess strength beyond imagination, and the Sikong Family had nearly given up on any hope of revenge!
