Zhao Donghe checked the time and his expression turned grim. He said, "Alright, now that Dr. Wang and the main characters have arrived, let's go inside."
He approached Wang Chao, Pei Donghu, and Song Henian and said, "Dr. Wang, you don't need to speak later. Even if Lafayette is present, I'm willing to risk my life to seek justice for all of you."
"Thank you," Pei Donghu and Song Henian expressed their gratitude sincerely.
During these days, the Zhao family had taken care of their families exceptionally well, making them feel at home.
Now, Zhao Donghe was willing to confront Lafayette with all his might for their sake.
"We're all on the same side, no need to be polite," Zhao Donghe smiled.
While speaking, he glanced at Wang Chao with a questioning look.
However, when he saw Shen Bing and Zhang Long behind Wang Chao, he was slightly startled, his eyes filled with astonishment.
Clearly, he didn't expect Wang Chao to bring along these two powerful individuals.
Shen Bing, the president of the Shen family, and Zhang Long, the martial god of the Shen family.
These two were also renowned figures in Canton City, just a step away from the Zhao family in terms of influence.
The fact that these two individuals came for Wang Chao left Zhao Donghe astonished once again, and he regarded Wang Chao with even more respect.
Indeed, he deserved the title of Dr. Wang, truly remarkable!
"Alright, let's go inside," Wang Chao nodded slightly without saying much.
If Zhao Donghe could resolve the situation for Pei Donghu and Song Henian, then Wang Chao wouldn't need to intervene further.
However, if Zhao Donghe failed to reach an agreement with Lafayette, Wang Chao would not easily give up.
The group entered Zui Xian Tower and made their way to the room designated for the negotiation with Lafayette.
Upon entering the tower, everyone immediately felt an overwhelmingly oppressive atmosphere coming from all directions.
In the hall, two black-clad guards stood at each entrance and exit.
They were tall and imposing, with sharp, eagle-like gazes, exuding a terrifying aura of iron and blood.
In the corners of the hall, there were also many black-clad guards present.
Expressionless and cold-hearted, they seemed like warriors walking in darkness, emanating a murderous intent.
"The Black Dragon Guard."
Zhao Donghe, Zhao Shanhe, and Zhao Changsheng's expressions darkened once again as they saw these people.
The Black Dragon Guard was a mercenary group under Lafayette's command, consisting of battle-hardened veterans who had fought on foreign battlefields and possessed formidable combat capabilities.
They were Lafayette's most powerful team, known for their ruthless killings on the foreign battlegrounds. They had even slaughtered a war god-level unit sent by the White Eagle Country, earning a fearsome reputation and displaying incredible strength.
Once the Black Dragon Guard assembled, even the Four Great Kings combined would not be their match.
"The Black Dragon Guard is here. It seems that things are getting serious, and conflict is inevitable," Zhang Long frowned.
"Are your weapons prepared?" Shen Bing asked.
"Do not worry, even if I have to risk my life, I will protect you and Mr. Wang today," Zhang Long affirmed.
Upon hearing this, Shen Bing nodded slightly, but her expression remained grave.
The fact that the Black Dragon Guard, Lafayette's strongest team, had appeared indicated that Lafayette might not have any intention of letting them go.
In other words, Wang Chao and the others were in danger!
"Wang Chao, why did you provoke Lafayette?" Shen Bing complained in her mind.
If Wang Chao had provoked someone else, she would have had a way to protect him.
But Wang Chao had to provoke someone like Lafayette!
Now that the Black Dragon Guard had appeared, it was uncertain whether she could save Wang Chao with her abilities and influence.
Creak~
Under the gaze of the Black Dragon Guard, Zhao Donghe, Wang Chao, Zhao Shanhe, Dongfang Wang, and others remained expressionless as they walked down the long corridor and arrived on the eighth floor.
The corridor on the eighth floor was also guarded by many members of the Black Dragon Guard.
Terrifying killing intent emanated from the darkness.
"It's an ambush." Zhao Changsheng, Zhang Long, Dongfang Wang, and Hao Feng, who had experienced battles, immediately sensed the immensely oppressive killing intent.
Everyone's expression turned grim, and goosebumps appeared on their skin.
Even many people's scalps tingled.
"Father, Lafayette doesn't seem interested in negotiating," Zhao Shanhe furrowed his brows.
"We'll deal with it as it comes."
Zhao Donghe remained calm and said, "He has the Black Dragon Guard, and our Zhao Family Army is not easy to deal with either. Don't forget, we have Zhao Changsheng by our side."
"Besides, I still have a backup plan."
"Let's see what Lafayette has in store for us."
As he spoke, he looked towards the entrance at the end of the corridor, his eyes filled with solemnity and a hint of fear.
Song Henian still had a cigarette in his mouth, but by now, his body was drenched in sweat, his lips trembling, and his face pale. He became more fearful as they approached the designated hall designated by Lafayette.
The Black Dragon Guard didn't say a word, but their gazes sent shivers down his spine.
Not just him, Pei Donghu and Lan Ruyu were also trembling with fear, their faces filled with dread.
Everyone present felt a tremendous oppressive force, and each person's eyes were filled with fear.
Once they pushed open that door, it would mean that they were standing against Lafayette, and the relationship between them might escalate into an endless conflict.
Lafayette was a person of great influence.
Even Zhao Donghe didn't desire to strain their relationship like this.
Wang Chao, with a blank expression, walked forward without hesitation. With a creak, he pushed open the large door.
As soon as the door opened, an incredibly fierce and chilling killing intent rushed towards Wang Chao like a unleashed tiger.
The momentum was akin to a ferocious tiger!
The killing intent was like surging waves!
It engulfed Wang Chao instantly!
As this overwhelming killing intent pervaded the area, Zhao Donghe, Zhao Shanhe, Zhao Changsheng, Dongfang Wang, and others all felt a sense of imminent danger, their expressions becoming solemn.
At this moment, every one of them felt as if they're being stared at by a ferocious and hungry tiger, their bodies chilled, covered in goosebumps.
"Even before he arrives, the aura is already so terrifying. Lafayette's cultivation is far superior to mine," Zhao Changsheng furrowed his brows.
Just by judging from this aura, he knew that Lafayette was still Lafayette, and even stronger than him.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Donghe, Zhao Shanhe, and others all wore grim expressions.
Despite Zhao Changsheng's rapid cultivation progress during his seclusion, he still could not catch up to Lafayette.
It was manifest how terrifying Lafayette was.
"Wang Chao."
Shen Bing's eyes filled with worry as she watched Wang Ch
ao in front of her.
Lafayette's strength was formidable, and just the killing intent alone made her shudder.
So, how much pressure would Wang Chao, who was at the forefront, be under?
While Shen Bing worried, Wang Chao had already taken his steps and walked into the hall.
He seemed unaffected by the aura, calmly walking in and sitting on a chair, his gaze sharp as a knife as he stared at Lafayette, who was seated in the main position.
"To negotiate with us, yet you send so many people to guard the scene. Lafayette, you truly have quite the presence."
