Wu Hao was suppressing his emotions very little. He was a money-loving person, or even an extremely money-loving person.
In order to make money, he could be said to have done all sorts of evil deeds, and at that time, no one could stop him.
But there's one thing: Wu Hao did all this in order to make his life better.
Look at the facilities in his rest area, such as the swimming pool and basketball court. These were all built by Wu Hao after he saved up money little by little.
His original purpose was to allow his own people to enjoy the place, rather than to serve only those who came to rest there.
From Luo Chen's perspective, Wu Hao is indeed a treacherous villain, but from Lina's perspective, Wu Hao is their savior.
They just have different stances and different views, but they have one thing in common: Wu Hao simply hopes that he and his people can live in this world.
So when he heard that his brother had been killed, Wu Hao was not afraid at all, even though he knew that his brother was not easy to bully.
What's more, these people are a group of foreigners.
Why are they so arrogant on his turf, and why do they talk to Number Five like that?
Compared to a powerful figure like Jiang Tao who was right beside him, Wu Hao certainly wouldn't care about the threat posed by an outsider like John.
John's face stiffened as he listened to Wu Hao's threat. He hadn't expected someone like Wu Hao to be so arrogant and domineering, which was something he couldn't understand.
“Mr. Wu, aren’t you afraid I’ll take action against your rest area if you talk like that? I can destroy everything you have. The only reason I called you was because I wanted to reduce the trouble between us, but I hope you won’t be so ungrateful.”
Sitting in the basement, Wu Hao sneered, then roared into the microphone, "No matter who you are, once you enter my rest area, I have an obligation to protect them. Come on, now that you've killed my brothers, there's nothing more to say between us."
With a thud, Wu Hao threw his headphones onto the seat, his eyes utterly cold, and unconsciously he clenched his hands tightly.
John, on the other hand, couldn't understand how someone could be so arrogant.
John, his face contorted with rage, slammed his fist into the car with a loud bang.
"Tell them to get everything ready, we'll go see them tonight."
After saying that, John threw down his headphones and walked into the car.
"How come? It's not working?" Mona looked at John's expression and knew that the communication between the two sides had failed.
John nodded expressionlessly, then said angrily, "This kind of person is simply courting death. Doesn't he know the consequences of provoking us? With his strength, he's nothing more than an ant."
Mona gave a mocking smile: "These guys who live in one place all year round are just ignorant of their own limitations. Since that's the case, let's kill them all and try not to let anyone know they exist."
John nodded slightly: "Alright, I'll inform the higher-ups about the situation. We'll take action tonight. We must handle it as quickly as possible, since this place is easily affected by the surrounding area."
basement.
Lina and the others had already come in. Looking at Wu Hao, who was frowning, they asked, "Boss, what's the situation? What do these people want?"
Wu Hao looked up at them, then sighed and said, "I'm sorry, it was my oversight. I should have had Johnny withdrawn as soon as possible."
“It’s none of your business. This is the fate of each of us. Since we’ve chosen this path, we should be prepared for it. But we can’t let Johnny’s sacrifice be in vain.”
Wu Hao nodded slightly and said, "I know, I will handle it. Lina, tell everyone to improve their cultivation level and prepare for battle. Those people are very likely to come tonight."
Wu Hao then got up and walked towards the door, turning back to say, "You guys keep a close watch and don't miss a single detail. I'll go inform them now."
By the time Wu Hao returned to the barbecue spot, Luo Chen and the others had almost finished eating and there wasn't much left.
Upon seeing Wu Hao, Luo Chen immediately grabbed a skewer of meat and walked over, laughing, "Quick, Lao Wu, try it, how's my cooking?"
Wu Hao forced a smile, took the meat skewers, and seemed to have something to say to Luo Chen.
Luo Chen noticed that Wu Hao seemed to have something on his mind, so he patted him on the shoulder and walked away, saying, "Is something wrong? Let's go talk over there."
The two arrived at an open space, some distance away from the crowd.
"So, what is it? Judging from your expression, you seem to be facing a problem?" Luo Chen smiled and said, "Alright, I understand. They're here, aren't they?"
When Lina came to find Wu Hao earlier, Luo Chen noticed that Lina's eyes kept glancing over, but he didn't think much of it. Now that he noticed Wu Hao's expression, he was certain that at this point in time, apart from the purple-haired woman, they shouldn't have anything else to do.
Wu Hao sighed and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, is it my fault? I didn't do a good job."
"Oh, it's a small problem. They're coming anyway. Besides, we're the ones who dragged you into this. Tell us what happened."
“One of my scout teammates was discovered and killed by them. They just called me and asked me to cooperate with them to kill you guys, but I refused. I reckon they'll make their move tonight.”
Luo Chen pursed his lips. This was indeed a difficult problem; he hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
To be honest, I should have sent my own people to investigate.
"Since that's the case, I believe you. Don't worry, this whole thing started because of us, so of course we won't let you do everything. Leave the defense to us." Luo Chen smiled wryly, thinking to himself, "I didn't expect things to turn out like this either. Sigh."
"Thank you. I'll have someone take you to the armory later. You can choose whatever you like. The enemy has at least half as many people as we do combined, so be careful."
"It doesn't matter, I'll take care of it. Since you have the equipment, that makes things easier. Alright, you go and get ready. I'll go tell them."
With that, Luo Chen turned around and went back to the barbecue area. He waved to Mike, Mu Shanhai and the others and said, "There's something. The other side already knows we're here, and they might make a move against us tonight, so everyone should make preparations as soon as possible."
"Mike, you go with Wu Hao's men to the equipment depot to get some things. Number five, you arrange for someone to guard the wall."
"And Mu Shanhai and the others, I will send someone to take you to a safe location. There will be people guarding the place. As long as I don't show up, you shouldn't show up either."
Before anyone could react to the news, Luo Chen had already finished distributing the supplies.
However, everyone knew that someone was waiting outside, so they weren't too surprised and went about their own business.
