Chapter 1412 - 1415: Going All-In

"I got it..." Lin Feng gave a bitter smile. He understood Ning Fuxun’s point that even if he could become the Sect Leader, he must be careful of being challenged by the leaders of various branches during the annual meeting. However, Lin Feng didn’t think such a situation would occur. He had already decided that as he vied for the Sect Leader position, he would make sure all the muscle-bound members of the Hong Sect respected him completely!

"As just mentioned, there’s over a billion at your disposal from the public funds, and the Sect Leader still receives a salary! And it’s not small, two million a year, plus bonuses!" Ning Fuxun said to Lin Feng with a smile, "Of course, this amount may seem a bit low to your current self, but once you become the Sect Leader, you won’t lack money-making avenues anymore. You’ll find out then!"

"I understand, thank you, Mr. Ning, for the guidance!"

"As long as you understand, that’s good. There’s not much else to say, mainly the money matters. Once you truly become the Sect Leader, gradually get used to it!" Ning Fuxun said courteously.

"Yes!" Lin Feng felt filled with fighting spirit,

"Oh, Lin Feng, when I was chatting with Aoxue and Yu Jiao just now, I heard you let Yu Jiao learn martial arts but didn’t teach Aoxue. What’s going on here?" Ning Fuxun looked at Lin Feng with some confusion, internally adding the unsaid half-sentence, aren’t you supposed to be closer to Aoxue?

"Well... it’s a long story!" Lin Feng’s face turned awkward; he couldn’t exactly tell Ning Fuxun that Ning Aoxue didn’t want to learn martial arts the ordinary way but wanted to train with him like Su Zi...

"Oh, I have plenty of time today, feel free to tell me slowly!" Ning Fuxun looked at Lin Feng with even more curiosity.

"Cough, cough... Mr. Ning, I just remembered I need to practice martial arts, training my physical strength for the battle for the Sect Leader, I’m afraid I don’t have time to chat leisurely with you today, let’s end it here!" Lin Feng said awkwardly and then quickly escaped from the study, leaving Ning Fuxun alone in a daze.

"Weren’t you quite relaxed just now? Why suddenly such urgency..." Ning Fuxun mumbled with some confusion, not knowing the truth of the matter.

...

Lin Feng left the study, walked straight out of the villa, headed to Zhou Yang’s house, found Zhu Xiuyue, and upon seeing her, directly asked, "Xiuyue, check how much cash we can move in the Martial Hall’s account?"

Zhu Xiuyue was somewhat surprised to see Lin Feng’s urgency and answered seriously after hearing his question, "About thirty million, Brother Feng, is there something urgent you need to do?"

"Thirty million." Lin Feng pondered, then pulled out two bank cards holding five million each from his pocket and handed them to Zhu Xiuyue, "These are cards, each with five million. Take them and combine all funds. We are planning something big soon!"

"Brother Feng, are you really short on money? I also have about five million in my account if you need support?" Zhu Xiuyue said, her face a bit embarrassed.

Seeing Zhu Xiuyue’s expression, Lin Feng immediately knew that her cash probably came from Zhou Yang. He chuckled inwardly and said, "I don’t really need your support, but if you trust Brother Feng, I have a way to double your five million within two days. Do you dare to bet with Brother Feng?"

"Brother Feng, are you... gambling? Betting forty million?" Zhu Xiuyue was a bit stunned. Brother Feng was playing at such a scale, who was he gambling with?

"Yes, I’m going to gamble..." Lin Feng said with a chuckle, making no attempt to hide it, "Now it’s all about your guts; are you willing to make a small fortune with Brother Feng? I know that money is from Zhou Yang, but you don’t need to worry about what he thinks. Just nod and it’s fine! "

"How confident is Brother Feng?" Zhu Xiuyue’s face flushed with excitement, asking eagerly.

"If I said too high, you probably wouldn’t believe it. Probably about 80% confident!" Lin Feng smiled lightly, "Make your decision quickly, we have to take action soon. I fear the odds will drop and waste the bonus..."

Zhu Xiuyue isn’t an ordinary woman; her vision and courage surpass those of average men. Hearing Lin Feng’s 80% confidence, she bit her lip and almost immediately agreed, "Okay, since Brother Feng is so confident, I’ll play big with Brother Feng!"

"Hmm!" Lin Feng nodded, looking at Zhu Xiuyue appreciatively, smiling as he said, "You didn’t let me down, indeed you’ve got guts!"

"Of course... if I lacked guts, how could I manage the Longfeng Martial Hall for you..." Zhu Xiuyue replied proudly, though she couldn’t help asking, "However, Brother Feng, what exactly are you gambling on, with so much at stake? Typical places can’t handle such a bet, and Jiangzhou doesn’t seem to have such grandeur, are you planning to go to Macau?"

"Just went to Harbor City a few days ago, why go to Macau, such a hassle..." Lin Feng shook his head, looking at Zhu Xiuyue, "Haven’t you heard about a big betting scene opening in Jiangzhou recently?"

"No..." Zhu Xiuyue shook her head blankly, saying subconsciously, "Aside from the Hong Sect holding bets for choosing the Sect Leader for those in the martial world... Ah! I know now..."

As Zhu Xiuyue spoke, she suddenly screamed, excitedly looking at Lin Feng, exclaiming, "Brother Feng, you’re planning to bet on the Sect Leader choice!"

"Yes..." Lin Feng nodded, thinking to himself, this girl’s reaction is not bad! She figured out pretty quickly that I plan to bet on myself to win... not bad understanding.

"Oh..." Zhu Xiuyue nodded repeatedly, looking at Lin Feng with a blank face, "Then, Brother Feng, among so many leaders, who should we bet on to win?"

Seriously... Lin Feng couldn’t believe, Zhu Xiuyue had such little faith in his strength. He had made it so obvious, yet she asked who to bet on to win, outright slap in the face!

"Xiuyue..." Lin Feng looked at Zhu Xiuyue seriously and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, how strong do you think Brother Feng is in your heart?"

"Uh..." Zhu Xiuyue widened her eyes, finally realizing, since Brother Feng was so confident of winning the bet, the person to bet on was himself!

Oh no... accidentally offended Brother Feng, now what should I do...

"Brother Feng, why don’t we bet on you to win?" Zhu Xiuyue said hesitantly, slightly tilting her head.

Lin Feng was even more speechless...
