Free Web NovelChapter 1018: Chapter 396: Invitation Letters from the Three Major Factions (2)
After getting off the car, Leng Bing issued orders to the members of the second team hidden in the shadows.
Upon hearing Leng Bing’s orders, the members of the second team immediately took action, each girl enhancing her speed to the limits of her abilities, striving to reach the designated position as quickly as possible.
By Leng Bing’s side stood another girl, Su Yan. Letting Su Yan accompany him to the scene was a decision that Leng Bing had made after careful consideration.
Originally, Leng Bing planned to meet with people from the three major forces alone, relying on his Great Grandmaster strength, even if he couldn’t capture them, he could still retreat unscathed.
However, considering Su Yan’s recent progress, Leng Bing decided to give her an opportunity for continued growth.
"Let’s go, let’s go in together and see what kind of Demons and Monsters want to meet our Minister!"
Leng Bing snorted coldly; being able to say something like this was a significant breakthrough.
Shu Yan, standing nearby, couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh, finding this side of Leng Bing somewhat endearing.
"Do you think he’ll come?"
In the room, Rose appeared vaguely uneasy. After all, reputations precede the man, and if they weren’t familiar with Zhang Beixing’s strength before, their investigations had changed their understanding of his name.
"I believe he will definitely come."
Jack’s words were full of certainty.
"If such an incredible person doesn’t come, won’t we have the opportunity for publicity?"
Jack’s eyes flashed coldly; Zhang Beixing had killed his brother in Europe, and Jack would not miss the chance for revenge.
Domestically, they had no way to deal with Zhang Beixing, but now that he was in the Ninth District, Jack would naturally use all means.
But as a foreigner, Jack hadn’t heard the old saying:
"Any plot or scheme is pale and powerless in the face of absolute strength!"
Although the Rose Clan had chosen to withdraw from the three major forces, with the combined Power of Jack and Rose, they could still book out this hotel.
Thus, when Leng Bing and the others entered the hotel, service staff immediately approached them, scrutinizing Leng Bing and finally displaying a puzzled expression.
Among them, a black man came over, speaking fluent Mandarin and inquiring.
"Excuse me, are you Minister Zhang Beixing?"
"No!"
Leng Bing shook his head, his tone steady.
"Sorry, our invitation this time was for Minister Zhang, not anyone else."
As he spoke, the black man reached out to push Leng Bing’s shoulder.
The black man originally intended to use this opportunity to intimidate Leng Bing and the others, but he hadn’t expected that as soon as his hand touched Leng Bing’s shoulder, Leng Bing’s shoulder would shift backward.
The force he exerted felt like hitting cotton, without any feedback. Before the black man could react, Leng Bing pushed his shoulder forward.
Suddenly, the black man felt a tremendous Power sweeping over him like a tsunami. At the instant of sensing that Power, he froze, unable to move.
When this force hit him, the black man flew backward until his companions caught him, bringing him to a halt.
A small show of strength silenced the spectators, rendering them speechless and immobile; the hotel lobby’s atmosphere shifted instantly to one of subtlety.
"This must be one of Zhang Beixing’s men; their strength is indeed formidable."
Everything that happened in the lobby was perfectly visible to Jack and Rose in the private room.
They initially thought Zhang Beixing alone was powerful, not expecting his subordinate to be equally formidable.
Leng Bing’s performance left Jack and Rose somewhat shocked, but they quickly composed themselves.
"I think with the people we’ve hidden in the room, dealing with him shouldn’t be impossible."
Compared to her demeanor before Leng Bing acted, Rose’s momentum now was clearly weakened.
"He can defeat one person, but that doesn’t mean he can defeat a group."
Jack snorted coldly.
"Moreover, our men have hot weapons; since Zhang Beixing doesn’t dare to come himself, sending his brother to die, we’ll handle it for him!"
With this thought, Jack took out his walkie-talkie.
"Bring that man up; I want to see what he’s capable of."
Upon receiving Jack’s order, his subordinates in the lobby wasted no time and quickly brought the person up.
As Leng Bing and Su Yan’s figures disappeared from view, everyone in the lobby exhaled a long breath.
When they regained their senses, they were startled to find the clothes on their backs were soaked with sweat.
"Is this the strength and Power of a master from that ancient country?"
The subordinates exchanged glances, each grateful not to be assigned to the private room.
Because the hotel was fully booked, the elevator smoothly took them to the top-floor suite.
What Jack didn’t know was that the hotel’s security System had long been hacked by Zhang Beixing’s team.
Thus, Leng Bing’s earlier performance and the positioning of the second team members were all clear to him.
"Leng Bing has made some progress, in terms of both personal strength and personnel deployment, as well as spatial selection, which are all more precise than before."
Zhang Beixing sat in front of a laptop, watching the monitor’s display as if viewing a spectacular action movie.
A figure stood beside Zhang Beixing, entirely wrapped in a black robe, yet the sheer fabric accentuated a graceful silhouette.
"You’re quite protective of your men; if it were me, those incompetent ones wouldn’t even qualify as my subordinates."
"He’s not incompetent."
Zhang Beixing frowned slightly, seemingly displeased with the robed woman’s words.
Sensing the anger in Zhang Beixing’s words, the woman quickly corrected herself.
"You’re right, Minister Zhang, he is your brother in arms."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Beixing’s anger visibly calmed a bit.
Meanwhile, Leng Bing had already led Su Yan into a hotel suite; as the door opened, they were met by two people, a man and a woman, one in black, one in white, sitting by the large table.
These two were Rose and Jack, and they showed no intention of rising to welcome Leng Bing; instead, their eyes continuously assessed Leng Bing and Su Yan.
"I thought Minister Zhang was some big shot, but didn’t expect him to be a coward who pushes his brother to the forefront to handle things! Your strength is quite impressive; how about you..."
Before Jack could finish his sentence, they saw a black shadow flash before their eyes, followed by a cool sensation at their necks.
Though Jack couldn’t see his neck, years of dominating the underworld told him that a dagger was now poised at his throat.
If this dagger applied just a little pressure, his life would end in an instant.
"How about what?"
Leng Bing’s voice was icy, willing to endure insults to himself but intolerant of slander towards Zhang Beixing. Within The Ninth Bureau, Zhang Beixing was the Spirit Totem, a divine figure.
Speaking ill of Zhang Beixing before members of the Ninth Bureau is akin to suicide.
"How about I plunge this dagger entirely into your neck; what do you think?"
The cold, emotionless voice reached Jack’s ears, and he harbored no doubt that it could be more than just a threat.
