"Brother Hao, Old Yang is back!"
Zhang Le hurriedly pushed open the door and said anxiously, "Just now, I heard from my men that they brought back quite a few people."
Yang Hao, who had been sitting in the center looking somewhat troubled, immediately stood up upon hearing the news and dismissed the hostesses around him.
Yang Hao strode over to Zhang Le, grabbed Zhang Le's thin shoulders with both hands, and said with great joy:
"Tell me quickly, where is my father?"
Perhaps due to using too much force, Zhang Le's expression instantly turned somewhat unpleasant, but he still quickly spoke:
"I heard from them that Old Yang just entered our Qingjing Gang, and he's probably already on his way here."
Yang Hao didn't bother to listen to what happened next, so he quickly put Zhang Le down and ran out.
…………
Xu Xing led a group of people through the gates of Buckingham Palace and only then did they truly witness what luxurious decoration meant.
The materials used are much better than those used in Susie's villa. The only drawback is that the aesthetic sense is lacking. The general feeling it gives is that I'm rich and arrogant, with a nouveau riche vibe.
Yang Lie walked very fast and disappeared at the end of the hall in the blink of an eye, heading to some private room.
The layout of Buckingham here is similar to that of Xu Xing's five-star hotel, both featuring a large living room at the entrance.
Behind them are various private rooms, with the rooms getting larger as you go up, and correspondingly requiring more money.
Since Xu Xing was already here, he wasn't in a hurry. He simply led his people to the reception area on the side and sat down on the sofas around the area without any hesitation.
He then waved for the others to sit down as well.
The hall was now filled with more and more people, not just Xu Xing and his group. More and more people from Yang Lie's faction were also gathering around.
They were all holding various weapons, and their faces were filled with tension, as if they were about to rush forward at any moment.
It's not really their fault. Xu Xing and his group came in without restraint, except for giving Yang Lie some face beforehand.
Ye Kai, in particular, pushed a kid who was trying to stop them several meters away when he came in.
It almost escalated to a point where the two sides drew their knives against each other.
The henchmen behind Xu Xing were specially selected; their physiques were perfectly suited for fighting. Plus, each of them carried a large knife. No one would believe they were there for friendly exchanges.
"These people were brought back by Old Yang. Let's assess the situation first and then deal with them when Brother Hao arrives. Do not act rashly."
If there's a next time, you'll be turned into a zombie and have your crystal cores mined.
A burly man with a scarred face berated the young man who had just tried to stop him.
Looking at Xu Xing, who was sitting lazily on the sofa, for some reason, his subconscious told him that this person was dangerous and that he was no match for him.
Xu Xing sat on the sofa, waiting quietly, toying with an exquisite scalpel in his hand, shaped like a miniature dagger.
Just as Xu Xing was about to lose his patience after waiting for a while...
From the far end of the hall came a hearty laugh, full of energy and quite imposing.
Next, a middle-aged man, nearly 1.9 meters tall, with solid muscles, wearing black casual clothes and sporting a buzz cut, appeared.
The man waved his hand at the people around him: "Get down here. This is incredibly rude. How can you treat such an important guest like this?"
Then he turned to Zhang and said, “Xiao Zhang, go and bring over the finest Longjing tea that I’ve been keeping to entertain our distinguished guests.”
By the time he finished speaking, he was already very close to Xu Xing.
For the sake of the bigger picture, Xu Xing did not intend to embarrass him, so he stood up to greet him.
"Could it be that Brother Yang Hao, the leader of the Qingjing Gang, has long been renowned? It's rather presumptuous of you to have come here with Elder Yang this time."
Xu Xing first showered him with praise.
Yang Hao glanced at the people behind Xu Xing.
They all had ruddy complexions, and although they looked intimidating, there were only about twenty of them.
Perhaps feeling that he should be in charge on his home turf, Yang Hao accepted the praise and extended his hand in a gesture of mutual compliment.
“I heard from my father that you guys saved him, so in the end, I still want to thank you.”
Judging from your appearance, Brother Xu Xing shouldn't be that old this year. To single-handedly manage such a large organization is quite remarkable for someone so young.
Looking at Yang Hao's outstretched palm, Xu Xing was somewhat disdainful. It seemed that this person wanted to test his strength.
So he also reached out his hand and shook hands with Yang Hao.
The two men locked eyes and tightened their grip on each other's hands.
Two seconds later, Yang Hao looked somewhat surprised, thinking to himself, "I am at least a second-level peak of the strength type, how come I feel somewhat powerless compared to the young people?"
In contrast, Xu Xing remained calm, though he already had a clear understanding of Yang Hao's combat strength.
Yang Hao could barely be considered a genius, and with so many people supplying him with crystal cores, it's not surprising that he reached the peak of the second level.
However, this strength is not much different from Ye Kai's strength at the peak of the second level.
This person has a lot of room for growth. In the future, we can either befriend them or eliminate them completely. However, Xu Xing does tend to prefer the second option.
He used his mental power slightly, adding it to his palm, just for a moment.
Yang Hao's face looked extremely pale, with sweat on his forehead and his palms swollen and red from being stretched.
Yang Lie seemed to have noticed something amiss and quickly smoothed things over, "Xiao Hao, why keep our distinguished guest here? Let's go to the VIP lounge."
Upon hearing the sound, both of them stopped. Yang Hao pretended to be calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
This kid, could he have already advanced to level three? If the two of us were to fight, it would likely be a 30/70 split, with me at 30% and him at 70%.
Fortunately, the initiative is in my hands now. They only brought about twenty people. Whether they are dragons or tigers, they have to coil up for me.
However, his expression remained one of feigned hospitality. "Brother Xu Xing, please come with me to the VIP room first; it's a bit more formal there."
Xu Xing nodded and prepared to lead his men to follow him.
Unexpectedly, Yang Hao added, "Our living room is expensive, and seating is limited, so we can only bring a few people."
"It's alright, I'll have my men show the rest of the brothers around."
Xu Xing didn't pay any attention to these things, and simply led Ye Kai and the other ability users out.
If it were Yang Hao, and he really dared to resort to any tricks or schemes, with both himself and Ye Kai, two level-three combatants, he believed that the first to die would definitely be the father and son.
Xu Xing believed that Yang Lie, a seasoned veteran of the underworld, would never tell his son the truth.
Although Yang Lie may seem like a rascal, that's the result of his years of pampered life and some arrogance.
He could understand this kind of behavior that harmed others without benefiting himself, and besides, the old Chang they were talking about was just an unofficial staff member.
