This Wei Zhi Zun was Pengzhan’s last hope, too, but with him injured, what else could Pengzhan do? This sense of hopelessness made him feel like he was at a dead end.

He didn’t feel like he could fight against this threat of House Xiao at all!

Pengzhan didn’t doubt one bit that these two brothers would go to the extremes if he didn’t comply with their demands. After all, with a master of that level by their side, not leaving any evidence wouldn’t be an issue to them. Even if they decided to kill their daughter, Pengzhan wouldn’t be able to do anything at all!

“Are you alright Mr. Wei? Should I send you to the hospital?” Pengzhan looked at Wei Zun- this guy better not die in his office! He was feeling quite frustrated too, how could this manbe so cocky even though he was this weak?

The bodyguard company he contacted was a top tier one, and this Wei Zun was the best they’ve got! Yet only one blow was enough to take him down!

“No need, I’ll take my leave!” Wei Zhi Zun wasn’t shameless enough to be staying here any longer. He’d suffered severe injuries, but walking shouldn’t pose a problem to him. With his face red, the man quickly exited the office and looked for a place to heal himself.

Pengzhan sighed helplessly. He may be a tall figure in Pengzhan Industries who called the shots, but there wasn’t anyone he could discuss this issue with!

Li Fu was in a coma, and Lin Yi had lost all his strength. Pengzhan didn’t want to tell Lin Yi about what had happened because of that as it would only make him worry, and the problem would still remain unsolved!

Pengzhan gritted his teeth. It seemed that he would have to shoulder this burden on his own! He felt that he had external invaders and internal conflict at the same time- these Xiaos were simply absurd, they might as well be robbing him in the daylight!

But, even so- there wasn’t anything he could do at all!

Xiao Ji and Xiao Ben exited the building with Uncle Pi, both of them pleased to the peak- Pengzhan was indeed what the rumors entailed, he’d lost both his master fighters! Why else would there be some Zhi Zun guy instead of his two trusted men?

But that Wei Zhi Zun really was quite useless, falling from one attack alone.

“Little brother, you think Chu Pengzhan would comply with the demands? Maybe we went too far with them?” Xiao Ji said worriedly upon entering the car, “Didn’t we agree on only two hundred million? Asking for his shopping center and hotel as well might force him over the edge.”

“Heh heh, that’s how negotiations work,” Xiao Ji smiled, “Those two businesses are ours for sure, but the two hundred million… I’m guessing Chu Pengzhan wouldn’t be able to have those funds ready in the first place, we’d be lucky if he could squeeze out fifty million. This was also so that there would be leeway for him to bargain with us! But, if he wants to foolishly send money our way, then we’d happily accept!”

“Hahaha! You’ve thought this through, brother! True, we’re the dominant party here- making such a demand means that Pengzhan would get to try and negotiate in his favor. If he doesn’t, though, we’d have an insane haul!” Xiao Ji nodded happily after hearing the explanation.

“Big brother, since we’ve already successfully threatened Chu Pengzhan, you should mention this to Master Bin. After all, the information came from his side- it’d be bad if we didn’t tell him about the results,” Xiao Ben said after Xiao Ji finished laughing.

“Yes, yes!” Xiao Ji nodded once more, “That’s wise thinking, brother. Master Bin isn’t someone we can piss off after all, and we still need to be on good terms with him if we are to do business in Songshan!”

With that, he pulled out his phone and called Master Bin.

Zhao Qibin had just heard from Cihua’s report that the Xiaos were on their way to Pengzhan Industries- he had been quite looking forward to the results himself.

Zhao Qibin and Li Cihua were a lot more careful nowadays. They did make sure to check on Lin Yi’s condition and had confirmed his downfall, but there had been a case of him retaining his abilities despite suffering heavy injuries along with Uncle Zhu. He was afraid that Lin Yi was putting on sheep’s skin again, baiting his enemies.

So they didn’t go to Pengzhan personally, and gave information to the Xiaos instead to let them test Lin Yi out!

He quickly picked up the phonecall from the Xiaos, “Hello? I’m Zhao Qibin!”

“Master Bin, I’m Xiao Ji!” Xiao Ji may have been one generation older than Qibin, but he still gave him more than enough respect due to his background.

“Oh, Uncle Xiao. What is the matter?” Qibin asked as if not knowing the situation.

“Well, Master Bin, I’m calling today to mainly thank you for the information! We just went and caused trouble for Chu Pengzhan!” Xiao Ji smiled, “We’re just sharing the good news after the successful attempt!”

“Oh? You’ve successfully caused trouble?” Qibin felt an emotion hitting him- it seemed that Lin Yi really was finished! It seemed that he could finally make his move as well! However, on the surface, he still kept his composure, ” I see. Did Chu Pengzhan not resist?”

“Resist? What did he have to resist us with? He didn’t have the right, now that he doesn’t have Li Fu and Lin Yi! He’s no fool, too, and even hired a Mystic master from who knows where. That guy thought that he was tough shit, but Uncle Pi crippled him with a single hit, shocking Pengzhan to the bone! Haha!” Xiao Ji said happily.

“Oh? He got himself another master?” Master Bin said, thinking that he was smart to hold back first. Pengzhan’s new hired fighter wasn’t a powerful one, and that’s why House Xiao got their way… Otherwise it’d be the Xiaos who’d be in trouble! It seemed that he wasn’t as good in the intel department as he thought he was, not yet.

“Yeah, I don’t know where all these masters are coming from! After all, in our world even just a golden class is a rare phenomenon, and only the noble houses would have a mystic! I never expected for him to have a Mystic class that’s for hire??” Xiao Ji was a little worried, “Do you think he might hire a stronger master, Master Bin?”

One couldn’t blame his worry- he may be from a noble house, but he was no practitioner. He wouldn’t be as in the know regarding the world of master fighters, not compared to Master Bin.

He was fearing that Pengzhan would hire yet another master to be on his side!
