As they stepped through the entrance, the interior of Fuxing Properties’ headquarters revealed a lavish, gold-and-marble decor, clearly showcasing the company’s wealth accumulated over the years.
“Who are you people? Are you here to cause trouble?”
Although real estate companies are open for business, the sight of a group of men in black sunglasses storming in made it clear to Fuxing Properties that these visitors meant no good.
“At least you have some self-awareness and didn’t mistake us for honored guests. Call your boss out here!” Xu Fei said, his tone sharp and commanding. Since they were here to teach a lesson, there was no need for politeness.
“Hey, you punk! Who do you think you are, shouting like that? Get out of here!” A burly security guard charged at Xu Fei, but before he could even lay a hand on him, Xu Fei effortlessly sent him flying with a single palm strike.
“This… What are you all standing around for? Get them!” The guard, who had been thrown several meters away, shouted as he hit the ground. The rest of the security team rushed forward, but the outcome was no different. Xu Fei remained unmoved, and the entire security team was quickly defeated.
“I’ll only say this once—call your boss out here!” Xu Fei’s voice carried an intimidating authority. The client manager, terrified, nearly collapsed and quickly picked up the phone to report the situation upstairs.
Among those shocked by the scene was Bai Zhan. “Can you tell how strong he is?” Bai Zhan asked his bodyguard, watching Xu Fei effortlessly take down the security team.
“This Military Young Master doesn’t seem to be using his full strength, so it’s hard to judge. But based on what I’ve seen, he’s at least at the level of a ‘Soldier King,’” the bodyguard replied.
“Soldier King” is the highest honor in the military. Bai Zhan’s bodyguards were all former elite special forces soldiers, but even they couldn’t help but admire Xu Fei’s prowess.
As they spoke, a middle-aged man in a suit stepped out of the elevator, cursing under his breath. “What are you all, useless? Can’t handle a little situation without me? What do I even pay you for…”
The man’s angry tirade came to an abrupt halt the moment he saw Bai Zhan standing in the lobby. “Why… why is Mr. Bai here? Hehe… such a grand entrance, surely there must be some misunderstanding, Mr. Bai…”
The man, Jiang Yehua, the boss of Fuxing Properties, had been all bluster moments ago. After all, Fuxing was a major real estate company in the city. But the sight of Bai Zhan turned him into a meek mouse, instantly humble and submissive.
“Misunderstanding? Boss Jiang, do you think you’re even worthy of having a misunderstanding with me?” Bai Zhan’s tone was icy. On the way here, Xu Fei had filled him in on how Fuxing Properties had tried to seize the land, poisoned the old abbot when their plans failed, and forcibly taken one of the Jade Arhats. Bai Zhan had no tolerance for such scoundrels in the industry and wasn’t about to give Jiang Yehua any leeway.
Seeing Bai Zhan’s unyielding demeanor, Jiang Yehua realized there was no room for negotiation. He quickly turned to his subordinates and barked, “You idiots! What have you been doing behind my back? Where did you offend Mr. Bai? Speak up now!”
Bai Zhan let out a cold laugh and cut in, “Enough, Boss Jiang. Stop putting on an act. Let me spell it out for you.”
“That amusement park project at the foot of Golden Light Temple—you started construction without a permit, didn’t you? Or do you actually have the approval?” Bai Zhan’s words hit like a hammer.
Jiang Yehua’s face twitched, but he quickly forced a smile. “Well… the permit hasn’t been issued yet, but… isn’t that how things are usually done in our industry?”
