Boom boom boom~~
Canton City was engulfed by dark clouds, and heavy rain poured down.
Amidst the downpour, the underground bank stood, appearing somewhat insignificant.
Many underlings took shelter inside the high-rise building of the underground bank, watching the torrential rain with mocking expressions.
"It's raining. Will those people from the Zhao family still come?"
"I heard that Zhao Changsheng has also come out of seclusion and is heading in our direction. Can we hold them off?"
"Heh, although Zhao Changsheng is strong, our Brother Cui is not weak either. Besides, Lafayette stands behind him. Even if Zhao Changsheng had a hundred times more courage, he wouldn't dare to oppose Lafayette."
"You're right. During the previous martial arts competition, Lafayette deliberately held back and didn't go all out, yet he still crushed Zhao Changsheng."
"Brother Cui has already called Lafayette for support. If the Zhao family dares to come, we'll wipe them out!"
The underlings following Cui Hong didn't take the Zhao family seriously. Some were even drinking and laughing, mocking the situation.
They were accustomed to being arrogant and domineering, relying on Lafayette's backing, and not considering anyone a threat.
Although they knew the Zhao family would come after them, they still felt no fear. They continued to laugh and dance, drink and flirt.
Amidst their merry revelry, a BMW 8 Series arrived and parked at the entrance of the underground bank.
Wang Chao stepped out of the car, his gaze icy as he stared at the underground bank.
With Wang Chao's arrival, car after car pulled up.
In the end, a total of fifty cars stopped at the entrance of the underground bank. Zhao Changsheng, Zhao Kun, and others walked out, standing beside Wang Chao.
Zhao Kun held an umbrella for Wang Chao, his eyes filled with astonishment. "Mr. Zhao."
Not long ago, when he went to deal with the body at Baiyun Mountain, he was shocked to discover that the deceased was the ace assassin of the Gate of Hell, Black Robe!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was a god-level assassin, a top-tier existence who had even slain several god-level masters.
Such a figure would make even the Zhao family tremble and feel uneasy.
Yet, this powerful assassin had been killed by Wang Chao.
Just how formidable was Wang Chao's strength?
Therefore, at that moment, Zhao Kun was in awe of Wang Chao and immediately walked over to hold an umbrella for him as he stood alone in the pouring rain.
"Dr. Wang, hello, I'm Zhao Changsheng," said Zhao Changsheng, looking at Wang Chao with admiration.
Wang Chao had saved Zhao Donghan, which was equivalent to saving their Zhao family's life, deserving of his respect.
"And you are?" Wang Chao looked puzzled.
"Hello, Mr. Wang. This is Zhao Changsheng, the prodigy of our Zhao family, a god-level martial artist," Zhao Kun introduced.
"You have quite a talent, but you've taken the wrong path. I suspect it's an issue with your family's cultivation technique," Wang Chao glanced at Zhao Changsheng calmly.
"Hmm?" Zhao Changsheng's expression changed upon hearing Wang Chao's words.
As a god-level martial artist, many people would flatter and grovel before him, even trembling with fear upon hearing his title.
However, Wang Chao not only showed no fear or admiration toward him, but also commented that his cultivation technique was flawed?
Wang Chao's gaze turned cold as he said, "Enough with the small talk. Let's get back to business."
"We will crush the underground bank and capture Cui Hong."
Zhao Kun nodded and said in a deep voice, "You don't need to intervene, Dr. Wang. Leave it to our Zhao family."
With that, he took out an iron crutch and strode toward the underground bank with great momentum.
At the same time, Zhao Changsheng waved his hand and declared coldly, "Attack!"
As he spoke, two cars immediately charged forward like thunderbolts, ruthlessly smashing the entrance of the underground bank into pieces.
"What the hell is going on? Has the Zhao family gone mad? Do they really want to start a war with us?"
"Quick, prepare for battle, quickly!"
Inside the underground bank, all the thugs were dumbfounded.
They had thought the Zhao family was just bluffing, never expecting them to take real action against them.
However, they quickly regained their senses and grabbed their weapons, rushing towards the entrance with murderous intent.
These people were all desperados, quick to react. They arrived at the entrance, swinging their weapons fiercely, aiming to smash the two cars belonging to the Zhao family.
In just an instant, the windows of the cars were shattered into pieces.
The two drivers inside the cars were instantly injured.
However, the two drivers from the Zhao family were not easy opponents either. They suddenly opened the car doors and charged out to fight against the attackers.
Unfortunately, outnumbered and overwhelmed, they're no match for the crowd and were engulfed by the assailants.
Just as they found themselves in a desperate situation, Zhao Kun, like a war god descending to earth, stormed into the crowd. The iron crutch in his hand moved like a flying dragon, striking, smashing, chopping, and sweeping. In an instant, he sent all the thugs from the underground bank flying, creating a path through them.
With his arrival, Zhao Changsheng waved his hand, and the members of the Zhao family immediately charged forward like an unstoppable tide, crushing the thugs from the underground bank, pushing them aside.
"You bastards! Has the Zhao family gone mad? Do you dare to attack us here? Are you trying to oppose Lafayette?"
One of the captain-level experts from the underground bank, witnessing Zhao Kun's ferocity, showed fear in his eyes and let out a resounding roar.
Then, he shouted loudly to his subordinates, "Quick, inform Big Brother Cui, Second Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, and others! Formidable enemies have come!"
As the captain spoke, someone rushed to inform Cui Hong and the others, only to be astonished to find that Cui Hong had disappeared without a trace. He couldn't be found anywhere in his office.
It wasn't just Cui Hong; even Second Brother Han Shen, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, and the others were nowhere to be found.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"It's over, it's over! Cui Hong and the Four Diamond Kings have all fled."
"They made us stay and fight against the Zhao family on the surface, but they themselves ran away?"
"Damn it, Cui Hong and the Four Diamond Kings have betrayed us! They abandoned us!"
"Trouble! Trouble! Cui Hong and the others have fled. Brothers, don't resist anymore, surrender quickly, don't get hurt!!"
Upon learning that Cui Hong and the Four Diamond Kings had fled, many thugs ran out, shouting loudly. Some even kneeled down and exclaimed, "Big Brother Zhao, we were wrong! We surrender!"
"What? Cui Hong and the Four Diamond Kings have all fled?"
"Impossible! How could Boss Cui betray us?!"
Upon hearing these words, the thugs from the underground bank all wore expressions of shock and disbelief.
"It's true, they've all vanished. Don't make any more futile sacrifices!" someone who knew the truth shouted.
However, Cui Hong's loyal followers still refused to believe it was true.
At that moment, the accountant ran out in a panic and exclaimed, "It's over, it's over! Master Cui has transferred all the money from the accounts. We're done for!"
Boom!
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present exploded with shock.
The money in those accounts was Cui Hong's lifeline!
Cui Hong had taken the money and hadn't even shown up during the battle. It was manifest that he had truly fled!
With this realization, all the thugs lost their fighting spirit. They discarded their weapons and squatted on the ground, no longer resisting.
"Cui Hong has run away?"
Wang Chao walked in, his face darkening upon hearing the news. He immediately rushed to Cui Hong's office, pushed open the door, and took a look.
Sure enough, besides Yang Ao's body, the room was empty.
"Where did he go?" Wang Chao's expression turned cold.
Zhao Kun approached and glanced at the scene, his face grim. He said, "If I'm not mistaken, he should know that he's no match for us and has gone to seek refuge with Lafayette!"
