"Asshole! Asshole! That piece-of-shit Xi'er actually dared to stand me up? Truly the ultimate asshole!"

Bang!

Crash!

"Shit! That Wu Yati is also shit, he actually dares to have other motives. If I could use the family's power right now, I'd wipe out his damn Tamwood Country, what kind of bullshit Tamwood Country, it's just a few lousy villages that he enclosed himself and dares to call a country? Really is a bumpkin who's never seen the world!"

Before approaching the villa, the sounds of smashing and Ge'er Te's cursing emanated from within.

Wu Yati's face darkened, and he gave the villa a cold glance, forcibly suppressing his rage as he stepped towards the front door of the villa.

"Stop cursing, someone is coming, from the aura, it should be Wu Yati!" In the villa's living room, the only intact sofa was occupied by Ao Leisi who, after a glance at the door, spoke in a low voice to alert the others.

By this point, the living room was in complete disarray; apart from the sofa Ao Leisi was sitting on, everything else had been smashed to pieces by Ge'er Te. With Ge'er Te's Earth Grade Peak strength, there was just too much he could destroy!

Hearing this, Ge'er Te took a deep breath, suppressing the surging anger inside.

Ding dong!

The doorbell rang, and Ge'er Te stepped forward to open the door.

"Mr. Ge'er Te, we've got trouble! The chairman of the Jiuzhou Group has arrived, and Mr. Xi'er is with him!" As soon as he entered, Wu Yati, seemingly oblivious to the mess in the living room, cried out in panic.

"Jiang Chen is here?! How did he get the news?"

Ge'er Te's face changed, and he suddenly reacted, "Xi'er! It must have been Xi'er who told him! Assholes from the Xi'er Group! I will definitely not let them off!"

"Mr. Ge'er Te, now is not the time to be angry. The mining rights for the Tamwood ore vein are in Mr. Xi'er's hands, and the Jiuzhou Group got the temporary mining rights by collaborating with Mr. Xi'er."

Wu Yati deliberately put on a panicked expression, "If we can't win Mr. Xi'er over, we can't mine that vein at all. If we mine it secretly, Mr. Xi'er can simply pull out the contract and have the other countries where the vein is located attack us. We cannot afford such consequences!"

"Mr. Wu Yati, don't panic just yet!"

Ge'er Te forced himself to calm down, his brow slightly furrowed as he gave Wu Yati a deep look, speaking in a stern voice, "What do you plan to do?"

"My guard has been detained by them, and through the message passed by my guard, they have a total of ten people, with at least seven capable of fighting, and it's very likely that they all have Paladin Knight strength. Now four of them have left their rooms, we don't know where they went!"

Wu Yati first laid out the defensive forces on Jiang Chen's side then continued in a grave tone, "My plan is for us to go together, talk face-to-face straightforwardly. I believe, with the reputation of the Ge'er Family, Mr. Xi'er should know how to choose!"

"Good! We'll go together!" Ge'er Te's expression darkened as he nodded.

Hearing about Jiang Chen's strength from Wu Yati, Ge'er Te breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't know that this intelligence, brought back by an Earth Grade Peak Three-Star Knight, was highly questionable!

The three of them left the villa together, heading toward the entrance of the estate.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty..."

As they passed through the courtyard, a chorus of spirited shouts rose up as hundreds of men in distinctive military uniforms saluted Wu Yati with a Knight's salute.

Ao Leisi narrowed his eyes slightly, speaking in a low voice, "A hundred Paladin Knights! The one leading them has Paladin Peak strength!"

Ge'er Te's pupils contracted sharply as he stared intently at Wu Yati beside him.

This was a team equivalent to the strength of a hundred Innate Grandmasters, a force that could dominate any territory with ease.

At this moment, a sense of relief secretly washed over him, thankful that he had not burned his bridges with Wu Yati. Had he done so, even with Ao Leisi's help, it would probably be impossible to escort him away from here.

Who would have thought that such a small Longjiang City could house so many Paladin Knights?

Even the Ge'er Family would struggle to quickly gather so many Paladin Knights!

With his eyes narrowing slightly, Ge'er Te said meaningfully, "Mr. Wu Yati, the power of Tamwood is truly formidable!"

"Ha ha! Mr. Ge'er Te, you flatter me. Nevertheless, I, Wu Yati, am a descendant of the Royal Family, I still have this much of a foundation!" Wu Yati spoke with a light chuckle as he stepped towards the hundred-man legion.

Ge'er Te suddenly thought of something, his complexion involuntarily paling.

He had always been focused on hijacking the mine and undermining Jiang Chen but had overlooked the fact that Tamwood worshipped the Fallen Angels, and that Wu Yati was a descendant of supporters of the Dark Church. Then these Paladin Knights...

A shiver ran through his heart, and Ge'er Te suddenly felt he had made a mistake. If his family found out that he was collaborating with someone related to the Dark Church, the consequences for him...

With this thought, Ge'er Te couldn't help but turn to look at Ao Leisi.

Ao Leisi glared fiercely at Ge'er Te, having also realized this fact. His family's combat power was reliant on the Holy Court, and if the Holy Court found out...

He deeply regretted getting involved in Ge'er Te's personal vendetta due to greed. But now that things had progressed this far, it was too late for second thoughts. His only hope was to resolve the situation quickly, collect his due share, and extricate himself from this vortex.

Seeing the expression on Ao Leisi's face, Ge'er Te breathed a sigh of relief.

He felt secretly fortunate that it was the right decision to call upon Ao Leisi, the Second Envoy of the Ge'er Family.

Ao Leisi was a retainer of the Ge'er Family, and the reason he was called a retainer was that he belonged to no particular force and had been recruited by the Ge'er Family.

If Ge'er Te had sought help from a strong member assigned by the Holy Court to the Ge'er Family, Ge'er Te would probably have been in serious trouble!

Suddenly, Ge'er Te's brows furrowed tightly as he thought of Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen was supporting his rival, Ge'er Yan. If Jiang Chen knew he was here and about to collaborate with Wu Yati, then...

His complexion changed slightly as a strong killing intent burst forth from Ge'er Te's eyes. He leaned toward Ao Leisi, whispering something into his ear.

Ao Leisi's expression darkened as he gave Ge'er Te a stern look, his eyes flashing dangerously as he nodded.

Wu Yati paid no mind to the conversation between Ge'er Te and his associate, and approached the hundred-man legion. After sweeping his gaze over them, he leaned in close to Mu'er Ta, the leader at the very front, using his Inner Qi to cloak his voice as he whispered:

"Mu'er Ta, we will play it by ear for this operation. Once we arrive, have them wait outside the hotel, projecting their own aura mainly for intimidation. Avoid conflict if possible. If a fight breaks out between Ge'er Te and the others, as long as it doesn't threaten us, don't intervene. The other party may prove more valuable for collaboration than Ge'er Te!"

"Yes!"

Mu'er Ta glanced at Ge'er Te and his companion from a distance and nodded subtly.

"Mr. Ge'er Te, shall we go?" Wu Yati turned his head toward Ge'er Te and his companion.

"Fine," Ge'er Te replied, his expression grim, as he nodded.

A procession of over a hundred people left the estate majestically, boarding nearly thirty vehicles that formed an impressive convoy, hurtling towards the Furlai Hotel.
