Brother Shu's face lit up with gleeful triumph after seeing Brother Snake's dark and angry expression.
He knew Brother Snake was a man who valued loyalty above all.
In the Fiery Society, no matter which brother got into trouble, Brother Snake would generally stand up for them.
Brother Shu wanted to use Brother Snake's sense of righteousness to get help with his revenge!
"I was just getting a haircut and chatting with the barbershop owner when we got to talking about our Fiery Society. Suddenly, a strange young man came up out of nowhere and slapped me," Brother Shu spouted off, "I asked him why he hit me, and he said it was because I was from the Fiery Society and deserved it! I was so angry that I mentioned your great name, Brother Snake, saying you would avenge me. But who knew... after hearing your name, that kid hit me even harder!"
"Why?" Brother Snake's face twisted in rage.
Why did the beating get worse upon hearing his own name? Was the attacker not afraid of him?
