This time, under Xiao Zheng’s clever handling, the turmoil quickly subsided, and the crowd that had gathered in front of the Qianqiu Group Building had all dispersed.Meanwhile, Han Shirong, trapped inside the car, was ignored by everyone and could only suffer under the scorching sun, filled with regret at this moment.Upon returning to the company, Xiao Zheng found many eyes on him.Because Xiao Zheng’s performance just now had been astonishing; Han Shirong’s car had already started, but he charged in front of the car like a bolt of lightning, thrust his hand out, and fiercely slapped it, causing all four tires of the luxury car to burst simultaneously.This was simply unbelievable, unimaginable!It was just like the superheroes in American blockbusters.Xiao Zheng, however, just smiled, utterly unconcerned.Although he had displayed the extraordinary side of the Evil God, those who had seen it firsthand would probably not believe it; at most, there would only be some strange rumors,

"Heh, Old Qing, you’re still as hot-tempered as ever, but we didn’t invite Boss Xiao this time to argue, so try to rein it in a bit."Initially, Luo Qianhua’s face still wore a slight smile, but then his expression turned serious, "We just need to suppress him subtly. We’d better not provoke him. Let’s not forget how Yan Guanghui died."Qing Liancheng harrumphed, "You’re just too cautious. But, what you said makes sense, we can’t go too far at this banquet. However, I think Xiao Zheng should also know his place!""Moreover, don’t we still have one person here?"Speaking of which, Qing Liancheng glanced toward a middle-aged man not far away, who was holding a wine glass and chatting animatedly with a group of company bosses from Zhonghai City.This middle-aged man, a member of a family in Zhonghai City, was named Hua Shanjiu. Although only moderately well-known, he had some past disagreements with Xiao Zheng.This time, Qing Liancheng and Luo Qianhua brought Hua Shanjiu here in part to

Hua Shanjiu was extremely angry in his heart, but at such a time, he dared not burst out. Seeing Xiao Zheng and others already heading to the second floor, he could only follow behind, full of frustration.The bosses from Zhonghai City and their bodyguards, upon seeing Hua Shanjiu, could not help but reveal a trace of amusement at the corners of their mouths. Evidently, Hua Shanjiu’s behavior just now seemed rather comical to them.This only served to irritate Hua Shanjiu even more."Just wait, you’ll get yours!"Hua Shanjiu swore to himself internally.It wasn’t long before everyone reached the second floor. Xiao Zheng looked around and chuckled, "Where should I sit?"The nearby bosses, upon hearing this question, had a glint in their eyes.These bosses, as the elites of Zhonghai City, were all cunning. Upon hearing Xiao Zheng’s question, they understood the meaning behind his words.Where to sit was essentially asking, how should the seating order be arranged?Who is the boss, and w

One side bustling, the other deserted.One showered with flattery, the other left without inquiry.Luo Qianhua and his three, in stark contrast to Xiao Zheng and his trio!In truth, these bosses were all cunning, observantly watching Xiao Zheng while toasting. They had thought that in such a situation, Xiao Zheng would definitely feel extremely embarrassed.They even expected him to make some improper actions, but they found they were mistaken, as Xiao Zheng appeared completely at ease at this time, busily demolishing the food on the table, truly as if he were just there to eat.Seeing Xiao Zheng’s demeanor, Luo Yusheng and Yun Tianlong followed suit, focusing on their meal with great dedication.Consequently, the lively side started to seem a bit odd. Gradually, everyone’s gaze shifted towards Xiao Zheng and his comrades, and their enthusiasm for toasting waned.Luo Qianhua bore a smile on his face, yet annoyance festered in his heart. He had meticulously orchestrated this scene, hop

Hua Shanjiu was extremely arrogant, yelling at Xiao Zheng in front of many bosses and not taking Xiao Zheng, the former Sect Leader of Tianji Sect, seriously at all.After Hua Shanjiu did such a thing, Luo Qianhua and Qing Liancheng showed no reaction at all. They didn’t stop him and even had a hint of mocking smile at the corners of their mouths.The bosses sighed to themselves upon seeing this scene. The once unparalleled demonic young man had completely fallen. He had fallen to the point where he was scolded by someone from a collateral branch of a family!And now, Xiao Zheng sat there, only accompanied by Luo Yusheng and Yun Tianlong. In comparison to the imposing Luo and Qing, he looked utterly lonely and pitiful."Hehe, when Xiao Zheng burst onto the scene back then, he was ruthless and offended who knows how many people. Ending up now is normal.""Yes, people are ultimately social animals. A loner, no matter how powerful he was before, is just a toothless tiger, open to being b

In Zhonghai City, power was interwoven complexly. The Hua Family had laid down its foundations in Zhonghai City long ago, and with so many years of management, had already become a colossal entity.Green Gate and New Heaven and Earth, these emerging forces, seemed impressive, but when truly compared to a grand family like the Hua Family, they fell short by a great deal.Perhaps, only the Tianji Sect at its height could compete with the Hua Family.Therefore, Hua Shanjiu was naturally full of confidence. Although he wasn’t a big shot within the Hua Family, in this kind of situation, he essentially represented the face of the Hua Family!Now that Xiao Zheng had made his move, using chopsticks to pierce through his palm, it was undoubtedly a provocation towards the Hua Family."Xiao Zheng, everything you’ve done today, the Hua Family will remember! I hope you can still be so arrogant when our Hua Family’s retaliation comes,"Hua Shanjiu said with a cold laugh.When all the bosses heard t

Hua Shanjiu sneered and said, "Since you seek death by yourself, there’s nothing I can do." He immediately took out his phone and dialed a number.the call was connected."What’s the matter?" From the other end of the phone, a faint, languid voice came through. Just a few words were enough to make everyone listening swoon slightly.However, they quickly recovered, and fear even flashed in their eyes as if merely daydreaming for a moment could bring them catastrophic misfortune!Because the owner of this voice was none other than the Family Head of the Hua Family, Hua Muran, a woman who was incredibly formidable!This woman had defeated the competitors for the position of Family Head in just a few years, successfully claiming her place and becoming the trusted leader of the Hua Family.Under her leadership, the entire Hua Family was developing at a terrifying pace, so fast that it could even threaten some of the well-established super dynasties!In the whole of Zhonghai City, the name

After Hua Muran arrived, everyone in the hall surrounded her, all desiring to take this opportunity to build a relationship with her.It was known that such high-status individuals were generally not accessible under normal circumstances.Hua Shanjiu watched the scene unfold and, with a smug glance at Xiao Zheng, thought smugly to himself, "Kid, now you must be knowing regret, right?"Thinking thus, Hua Shanjiu turned around, intending to complain to Hua Muran once more and to give Xiao Zheng another dose of reality.However, at this moment, Hua Shanjiu was taken aback.Because he realized that something was off about Hua Muran.After arriving in the hall, Hua Muran had not spoken a word; she was as still as a statue, rigid, her beautiful eyes fixed on Xiao Zheng with an infatuated gaze.The noise around her elicited no reaction from her whatsoever.It was as if in this slice of the world, only Xiao Zheng existed!Then suddenly, a mist appeared in Hua Muran’s eyes, she took a few step
139
Hua Shanjiu looked at the bodyguards charging towards him in fear, knowing that the Hua Family, as a major clan in Zhonghai City, possessed tremendous power.But there were also many adversaries; hence, the bodyguards by Hua Muran’s side were genuine experts, against whom he had no chance to resist.With this in mind, a ruthless gleam flashed across Hua Shanjiu’s eyes as he made a sound, pulling his hand off the chopsticks before immediately dropping to his knees. He kowtowed to Xiao Zheng and Hua Muran like pounding garlic, tears and snot flowing, and cried out loud:"Family Head, please spare my life! I was blind to not recognize Taishan. If I had known Xiao Zheng was a friend of the Family Head, even with a thousand, ten thousand guts, I wouldn’t dare to do such a thing."The crowd watched Hua Shanjiu kowtowing on the ground and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. At the beginning, Hua Shanjiu was so arrogant, cursing directly at Xiao Zheng, and now he lay at Xiao Zheng’s feet, abject

Upon witnessing this scene, everyone was momentarily stunned.Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!The next moment, a sudden change occurred. Around the hall, every window and the glass suddenly exploded, and then nine dark figures burst through the windows.They appeared like demons, their eyes gleaming coldly, wielding shimmering swords in their hands, dressed in black outfits, as if they had stepped out from Hell itself, exuding a strong aura of slaughter.Almost the instant they shattered the windows, dozens of needle-like sharp weapons pierced through the wrists of all the bodyguards in the booth.Screams erupted, blood splattered! All the bodyguards were simultaneously struck by the silver needles, rendered completely powerless!In an instant, the entire venue was in shock.Shock appeared in everyone’s eyes, Luo Qianhua and Qing Liancheng were particularly shaken, having not expected that Xiao Zheng still had such a mysterious force at his disposal!"I give you only half a minute,"Xia
