As the Axe Gang's boss flew by, those looks of hope turned into looks of shock and despair.

The boss flew right past them and slammed into the wall, creating a hole in it as he was pushed halfway through. There was only his bottom half left inside of the building.

But this was even more shocking since this room was built specially.

This was the main office of the Axe Gang and they knew that there would be plenty of fights happening here. So when this was constructed, it was made of a special hard material that was very hard to break.

Even when the boss had tested it, they had found that it was able to take half of his full power.

That meant that this wall was even able to block an attack from a normal Fragmented Soul Realm Expert. Only a full force attack from a Fragmented Soul Realm Expert would be able to damage the wall.

But the Axe Gang boss had been sent right through the wall like it was nothing?

That meant that what the Axe Gang boss had just been hit in surpassed a full force blow from a Fragmented Soul Realm Expert…

Could it be that this kid in front of them was an Embryo Soul Realm Expert?!

If that was the case, then there really was nothing that they could do today…They only thing that was left for them was to pray that he didn't want their lives, otherwise not a single one of them would be able to escape today.

But lucky for them, that was indeed the case.

Lin Fan never planned on taking the lives of these people, he just wanted their power and influence. He wanted to take them as his subordinates and have them bring all the resources that they had under him.

So after taking care of the Axe Gang boss, he actually pulled the Axe Gang boss out of the hole in the wall.

The Axe Gang boss had already lost consciousness from being punched right through the wall, but Lin Fan didn't let him stay unconscious. He raised his hand and slapped the Axe Gang boss a few times until the boss finally woke up.

The boss looked up with his swollen face and seeing Lin Fan's face right in front of his own, he couldn't help jolting as he remembered what had just happened.

He asked with a bitter smile, "Can't you just spare me? I promise that I won't mess with Xia Liu's group anymore in the future. I'll even be your greatest ally."

Lin Fan just calmly said, "It's not a problem to spare you…"

He deliberately left his words there to give them a bit of hope.

The Axe Gang boss naturally seized this opportunity and was about to say something, but Lin Fan suddenly cut him off, "As long as you become my subordinates."

At this, all of the Axe Gang members revealed difficult expressions.

They didn't agree right away like Xia Liu's group. Instead, they all had difficult looks as if this was something that was very hard for them to accept.

That was because the Axe Gang was different from Xia Liu's group.

Xia Liu's gang was just a gathering of people who wanted to gain power and resources, they didn't have anything binding them together. That was why they were willing to submit to him without any hesitation.

As long as it was someone stronger than them, they saw no reason not to submit since a stronger boss would mean a stronger backer for them.

But it was different with the Axe Gang.

The Axe Gang was made by the five brothers that took up the boss position and the four executive positions. This Axe Gang hadn't just been made for resources and power, rather it had been formed to fulfil an ambition for the five brothers of the Axe Gang.

Their dream was to gain enough power to one day leave this slum city and make it to the Mu Stellar Kingdom capital.

So if they were to submit to Lin Fan now, that would mean going against their dreams…

But Lin Fan could also see this, so he gave them a little 'motivation'.

Lin Fan raised his fist and asked, "Then since you're not willing to work for me, there's no reason for me to keep you alive anymore is there?"

As soon as his voice fell, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

They could sense the killing intent that was coming from him…he was being serious…

If they really insisted on not joining him, then he would kill them all here.

So…

"We'll join, we'll join!" The Axe Gang boss quickly said while everyone nodded in agreement to this.

Even if they had dreams, the most important thing was naturally their life.

If they didn't have their life, they wouldn't be able to have dreams. So before having dreams, they had to make sure that they could keep their lives.

Not to mention, even if they were to submit under him, as long as they worked hard, there was still the chance that they would be able to escape this slum city one day. It wasn't as if they were completely giving up on their dreams by choosing to follow Lin Fan.

Or at least that was how they tried to comfort themselves.

Lin Fan knew that this method of forcing people to be his subordinates wouldn't create any sense of loyalty in them, but that was not what he cared about right now. He just needed their influence and resources, once he was done with them, he wouldn't need to think about them again.

After subjugating the Axe Gang, Lin Fan let the Axe Gang boss get healed up by the Axe Gang medic. However, he wouldn't let the medic wrap any bandages around the boss or anything that made it clear that he had been treated.

The Axe Gang boss was confused by this until…

Lin Fan suddenly said, "Call the other three gangs that also have a debt with us. Tell them that you are being attacked and you're struggling to fight back. Tell them that you need reinforcements."

The Axe Gang boss' eyes trembled when he heard this, but he forced himself to stay calm as he said, "Boss, I don't have any contact with those other gangs. I don't know what…"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes that turned cold and said, "Stop wasting words trying to lie to me. I know that your four gangs have already agreed to work together to avoid paying this debt."

The Axe Gang boss felt a chill run down his spine when he heard this, but he didn't give up as he continued, "Boss, I really don't know what you're talking about. I…"

Before his next word could come out, Lin Fan had summoned a white dagger with a flick of his hand and it was placed at the Axe Gang boss' neck.

The Axe Gang boss hadn't been able to react to this at all, but he could feel the killing intent that Lin Fan was releasing…

Lin Fan said in an ice cold voice, "Stop wasting my time and just do it."

Finally the expression of the Axe Gang boss changed. He revealed a difficult look as he said, "Boss, you should know what happens if we betray those other three gangs. Nothing good will come from that."

That was right, the main reason he didn't want to contact them was because he wanted to keep himself safe.

He didn't know what backing Lin Fan had, but even if Lin Fan could keep himself safe, why would he help their Axe Gang?

For him to call the other three gangs here for a trap, it was clear that Lin Fan was already planning on using the Axe Gang to take the blame.

Naturally the boss of the Axe Gang couldn't let that happen.

It wasn't just about his own life, but also the lives of his brothers.

But Lin Fan wouldn't have any of it as he said, "I'm taking down these three gangs today, so you don't need to worry about that." Then his voice turned cold again as he said, "Just call them already before I find someone else to do it."

But the Axe Gang boss still wouldn't back down as he said, "Boss, you are powerful, but one of these gangs is run by an Embryo Soul Realm boss. I'm afraid that…"

He left his words hanging, but the meaning behind them were clear.

Lin Fan just gave a soft snort before moving the white dagger slightly forward to pierce into the Axe Gang boss' neck. Then he said, "I guess I'll have to find someone else then."

The Axe Gang boss felt tears come to his eyes when he heard this.

With no other choice, he quickly said, "I'll call them, I'll call them!"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at him before giving another snort and saying, "Then do it already."

After that, he pulled back his dagger and kicked the Axe Gang boss.

The Axe Gang boss had an aggrieved look like a wife that was being mistreated, but he quickly looked away when faced with Lin Fan's ice cold look.

So in front of Lin Fan, he picked up something that seemed like an old version of a telephone that even had the spinning dial for dialing numbers.

After he made the calls, they all quickly connected and the people on the other side all agreed to come as Lin Fan expected.

This was a matter of their shared interests, so of course the other gangs wouldn't hold back.

But that was what Lin Fan counted on.

After all, it was too troublesome to go looking for them. It was much easier for them to come to him.
