even proposed yet!" Qin Yuxin blushed, then smiled and retorted playfully.This was the purest smile she had in all this time!It seems the cheerful and confident girl from before is back!Actually, befo...[ ]

Boom!

Huang Yuming collapsed onto his bottom, trembling all over, with cold sweat pouring down his face. His expression was one of utter terror.

He couldn't believe that Ling Hao had actually killed Wang Yuewen like that!

"I... I was wrong, I really was wrong... Please forgive me, spare my life, please..." He begged for mercy, his voice trembling, while kowtowing vigorously.

Now, he wouldn't doubt for a second that Ling Hao would take his life too!

"Are you the young master of the Huang family" Ling Hao walked over and sat on the sofa: "I'll give you half an hour to call your family to come save you!"

After he finished speaking, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a puff.

Upon hearing his words, a glimmer of hope appeared in Huang Yuming's eyes. He hurriedly took out his phone and dialed a number.

But as early as when Qin Yuxin entered this office.

Wong Chung-tai, the head of the Wong family in Dongzhou, was waiting to be received in a meeting hall at a manor in eastern part of the city. This manor belonged to Yuan Hung, the underground king of Dongzhou.

Huang Zhongtai came here with a simple purpose: to show good faith to Yuan Xiong, in order to leverage the other's power to push the Huang family into the top tier of Dongzhou.

Since the fall of King Zhao Tao's three families, several prominent families who were originally in second place in Dongzhou have become increasingly active.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them, they couldn't possibly let it slip away!

And all the people of Dongzhou know that, at present, the two most influential people in Dongzhou are Shen Le, the head of the Sihai Group, and the Eighth Master.

So, several powerful families and the Eight Immortals each displayed their supernatural abilities across the sea, trying every means to convey their intention of forming an alliance to the two.

The Huang family is the leader of the second echelon in Dongzhou, second only to the three major families in terms of energy and resources. They are also the most hopeful family to ascend to the top tier of Dongzhou's elite.

"Master Huang, I've been waiting for you. Please come in!" A moment later, Hou Ying arrived and spoke.

"Thank you, General Hu!" Huang Zhong bowed slightly.

Two minutes later, the two arrived at a reception room.

"Well, well, my apologies for the delay. Please forgive me, Master Huang!" Yuan Xiong, who was seated, looked at Huang Zhongtai and spoke.

"Eight Master, you flatter me!" Huang Zhongtai bowed in response. "It was I, Huang, who disturbed Eight Master!"

Although he was the head of the Huang family, he dared not be arrogant in front of Yuan Xiong.

He knew very well that Yuan Xiong was not just the underworld king of Dongzhou, but also had a special relationship with Shen Le, one that his Huang family could never compare to.

"Haha, Master Huang is too polite." Yuan Xiong pointed to the sofa beside him. "Please have a seat, Master Huang!"

"Thank you, Eighth Master!" Huang Zhongtai sat down and took out a check from his body, placing it on the tea table: "A small token of my appreciation. Please accept it with a smile, Eighth Master!"

"What does this mean, Huang Family Head" Yuan Xiong glanced at the nine zeros on the check, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"The Eighth Master, a formidable figure of his time, Huang certainly had intentions to make connections!" Huang Zhongtai took a deep breath before continuing.

"It's just that I was worried that the Eighth Master wouldn't look favorably upon Huang, so I only visited today. I hope the Eighth Master will forgive me!"

"Ho ho, Mr. Huang is being too kind!" Yuan Xiong raised his teacup and took a sip: "I am just a rough man, Yuan, I dare not accept such great courtesy from Mr. Huang!"

He naturally knew in his heart that this money couldn't be taken carelessly!

Since the incident with the three families, Shen Le had already warned him. During times of crisis, one must be extremely careful with their words and actions!

"Grandpa Eight, I'm not going to beat around the bush." Huang Zhongtai paused for a moment before speaking.

"Eight Ye should be more clear than Huang Mo, the current Dongzhou is full of opportunities. Huang Mo hopes to form an alliance with Eight Ye and together take down this piece of cake."

Of course, as for how to divide the cake, everything goes by what Eighth Master says!

"Hehehe, Master Huang values me, Yuan, too highly!" Yuan Xiong put down his teacup: "Yuan has no interest in this cake, Master Huang will have to find someone else."

"Eight Master..." Huang Chung-tai was slightly taken aback.

Ding dong!

Before he could finish his sentence, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was his son calling. After a slight frown, he hung up directly.

Just as I was about to put down my phone, it rang again.

"Excuse me, Eighth Master, I'll take a phone call." Huang Zhongtai frowned again.

"No problem, please come in, Master Huang!" Yuan Xiong lit a cigar.

"What's up" Huang Zhongtai's voice was low and grave after he answered the phone.

"Dad, someone wants to kill me..." A terrified cry came from the phone. "If you don't get to the company in half an hour, you'll never see me again..."

"Hmm!" Huang Zhongtai was taken aback. "What's going on"

I don't know what Huang Yuming said on the phone. Two minutes later, Huang Zhongtai said with a hint of anger: "Tell him to wait, I'll be there soon!"

After finishing, he hung up the phone directly and then looked at Yuan Xiong.

"Master Eight, I'm truly sorry, but my son has encountered some trouble, so I have to take my leave first. I'll visit you again another day."

"In present-day Dongzhou, is there anyone daring enough to make Huang Gongzi lose face" Yuan Xiong casually remarked.

“A hot-headed little brat, he threatened to kill my son for a woman. He really thinks our Huang family is a pushover!” Huang Zhongtai responded after getting up.

"Oh" Yuan Xiong paused for a moment, feeling a tinge of curiosity in his heart: "What kind of person"

"I'm not sure yet!" Huang Zhongtai shook his head. "From what my son said, it sounds like the husband of the eldest daughter of the Qin family."

Bang!

Yuan Xiong's wrist shook, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground. "Are you sure"

"Could it be that the Eighth Master knows that boy" Huang Zhongtai saw Yuan Xiong's reaction and was slightly surprised.

"Master Huang, I suggest you pray that your precious son hasn't made a grave mistake!" As Yuan Xiong spoke, he rose and walked towards the door.

"Eight Ye, where are you going" Huang Zhongtai was taken aback once again.

"If you're any slower, don't even think about your son's safety. The entire Huang family might be in danger!" Yuan Xiong said in a low voice.

Tick tock!

A bead of sweat, the size of a yellow bean, rolled down Huang Zhongtai's forehead.

A sudden surge of anxiety gripped my heart, and my right eyelid began to twitch uncontrollably.

In less than half an hour, Yuan Xiong, Hou Ying, and Huang Zhongtai appeared in Huang Yumin's office.

But seeing the security guards lying all over the place, and Wang Yuewen who was dead beyond recognition not far away, Huang Zhongtai's whole body trembled uncontrollably.

Things are more serious than he imagined!

"Dad, why are you just coming now If you were any later, you wouldn't have seen your son!"

After seeing his father, Huang Yumin's confidence returned.

Although Ling Hao's skill surprised him, the Huang family wasn't without martial arts experts. He was confident he could definitely defeat Ling Hao.

But when he saw that only his father was there, he was taken aback: “Dad, why didn’t you bring anyone with you”

Bang!

Before his words could even finish, Huang Zhongtai took a few large strides and kicked him to the ground with one foot.

With considerable force, Huang Yuming curled up on the ground, vomiting non-stop.

Plop!

Without any hesitation, Huang Zhong knelt down in front of Ling Hao who was sitting on the sofa, his whole body trembling.

"Master Ling... Master Ling, I'm so sorry. It was my fault for not raising this beast properly. Please forgive me, Master Ling..."by the wind.He flew out dozens of meters before crashing heavily to the ground. The four warrior-level men lost their breath in mid-air.The burly man's situation was slightly better; he was still brea...
