"It's impossible! How can this be? It's absolutely impossible! How can you still be alive?" Shen Dongshan muttered, his face filled with disbelief.
Shen Deng was even more astonished. "Ghost, it's a ghost!"
"What is going on? Wasn't he dead?"
"Am I seeing things? Did the dead come back to life?"
The remaining shareholders were also in shock, their faces displaying astonishment. Some of the more timid individuals jumped up and huddled in the corners, their eyes filled with fear as they stared at Wang Chao.
Among them, Zhang Long remained calm, nodding calmly at Wang Chao.
Shen Bing and Liu Yifei, however, glared at Wang Chao with annoyance.
Ignoring the others, Wang Chao walked forward and stood before Shen Tianhuan, calmly saying, "Old Master, it's unfortunate that we meet under these circumstances for the first time."
"I had thought that you, as an esteemed and wise individual, would be different. But it turns out you're an imbecile who can't distinguish right from wrong."
"It's truly disappointing to see that you're such an ignorant fool, incapable of even comprehending the situation before you."
"Wang Chao, this is a private matter of our Shen family. I ask that you not interfere," Shen Tianhuan said coldly.
Being spoken to in such a manner by a younger junior was a blatant insult.
However, Shen Tianhuan didn't erupt in anger. He simply stared coldly at Wang Chao, wanting to drive him away.
Throughout the conversation, he remained fixed on Wang Chao, trying to ascertain his true intentions. But no matter how he observed, he couldn't see through him.
Wang Chao stood before him, his presence as profound as the vast universe. Even someone of Shen Tianhuan's caliber, a warrior at the god-tier level, felt his depth and dared not provoke him.
"A private matter of the Shen family?" Wang Chao smiled faintly. "In that case, Old Master Shen, let me ask you a question. Does Shen Dongshan hiring someone to kill me and attempting to silence Chen Yong have anything to do with me?"
Shen Tianhuan was rendered speechless.
"The power struggle within your Shen family is not my concern. However, Shen Dongshan's repeated attempts on my life are something I can't let go of."
Wang Chao stared coldly at Shen Tianhuan and continued, "Old Master Shen, how do you propose we settle this score?"
"What do you want?" Shen Tianhuan replied.
"I won't interfere in your power struggle within the Shen family. However, you also cannot interfere in my revenge," Wang Chao said coldly.
"You're dreaming! I..." Shen Tianhuan's voice turned icy.
As the true helmsman of the Shen family, he upheld the dignity and prestige of the Canton Shen family.
If Wang Chao wanted to seek revenge in his presence and take action against Shen Dongshan, it would be a direct slap to his face. How could he ever agree to such a request from Wang Chao?
"Old Master Shen, I think you've misunderstood. I'm not seeking your opinion, just asking a question," Wang Chao uttered coldly.
With that, he formed a sword gesture with his hand, aiming at Shen Dongshan.
Swoosh!
In the next second, a sword qi burst forth from his fingertip, thunderous in its momentum, instantly piercing through Shen Dongshan's arm.
The sword qi didn't lose its force and created a hole in the wall behind Shen Dongshan.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!!!"
Shen Dongshan's arm was pierced, bones penetrated, and the excruciating pain made him scream like a pig being slaughtered.
Blood gushed out from his arm, staining the ground red.
"What?"
"Sword qi?"
Witnessing this scene, Shen Tianhuan, Shen Deng, and all the shareholders present were shocked, their eyes filled with astonishment as they stared at Wang Chao.
Sword qi!
This was a skill unique to the Seven-Star Warlords, the god-tier warriors.
Wang Chao's strength was actually this terrifying?
Especially for Shen Tianhuan, his pupils contracted sharply, as if he had witnessed the most unimaginable thing in the world. His heart was stirred up like a raging tsunami and couldn't calm down for a long time.
Seven-Star Warlord!
That was the realm and power he had longed for, exhausted his life pursuing through various means but had never been able to attain. It was his lifelong regret.
Yet here was Wang Chao, achieving such a feat at such a young age, not even thirty yet.
How was this possible?
"It's impossible. How can you be this strong? How did you achieve this?" Shen Tianhuan stared at Wang Chao, utterly astonished.
In this moment, he had forgotten Shen Dongshan's agonizing screams, forgotten everything else. His eyes were fixed solely on Wang Chao.
"Talent," Wang Chao said calmly.
As he spoke, he released another sword qi, piercing through Shen Dongshan's left knee, causing him to crash to the ground, unable to move a foot, blood pouring out.
Shen Dongshan's face twisted in pain, and he let out another piercing scream, sending shivers down the spines of everyone present.
Just looking at his expression was painful, and hearing his voice made one's scalp tingle.
"Dad, save me!!" Shen Dongshan pleaded with fear and desperation as he looked at Shen Tianhuan.
Having known about Wang Chao's methods, he understood how cruel they were. If he fell into Wang Chao's hands, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Upon hearing these words, Shen Tianhuan's face darkened.
Save him?
Damn it, he wanted to save him too!
But Wang Chao was a Seven-Star Warlord, far superior in strength. Shen Tianhuan had the desire but lacked the power to intervene.
"Wang Chao, by treating our senior executives in this manner, are you seeking a fulfill feud with our Shen family?" Shen Deng angrily exclaimed.
"Do you have a problem with that?" Wang Chao looked at him coldly.
His gaze was as sharp as a knife, his killing intent soaring.
Shen Deng had prepared a lot of arguments to overpower Wang Chao with public opinion and the might of the Shen family, hoping to force Wang Chao to stop. But under Wang Chao's gaze, he was instantly struck dumb, unable to utter a word.
In that moment, he felt as if he had been targeted by a bloodthirsty tiger, shivering in terror and cold all over.
After intimidating Shen Deng, Wang Chao acted once again. Another sword qi shattered Shen Dongshan's other knee.
Shen Dongshan groaned in pain once more, his agonizing screams tearing at the heart, making his voice hoarse and no longer as loud as before.
Shen Tianhuan's expression grew even more grim, gritting his teeth he said, "Wang Chao, what exactly do you want?"
Wang Chao's actions were clearly slapping him in the face, each sword strike not only hitting Shen Dongshan's body but also landing as a resounding slap on his face.
"An eye for an eye, a life for a life. It's a simple principle. Shen Dongshan hired an assassin to kill me, and he tried to kill me multiple times. How could I let him off?" Wang Chao uttered coldly.
Upon hearing this, Shen Dongshan's expression drastically changed, and he hurriedly begged in a frightened and desperate tone, "Dad, I do not desire to die, please, save me!"
Wang Chao's eyes turned icy, and he waved his hand.
A chair immediately flew up, like a gust of wind, and smashed heavily onto Shen Dongshan's head.
Bang!
The chair shattered into pieces.
Shen Dongshan's head was bleeding, and he fell to the ground, barely breathing.
"Such a nuisance!" Wang Chao uttered coldly.
"This... is telekinesis?" Shen Tianhuan witnessed this scene, his eyes widening once again, filled with disbelief.
