Wang Xiao had a calm expression.
However, under Wang Xiao’s gaze, Wang Tianqiong couldn’t help but feel timid.
A tiger, though dead, remains powerful.
Even if Wang Xiao looked somewhat thinner and unwell, those eyes and the aura emanating from him made people shiver.
Just one confrontation was enough to make Wang Tianqiong feel utterly defeated.
Originally having the most favorable conditions, this time Wang Tianqiong felt he could firmly crush Jinling Royal Mansion under his foot, but because of Wang Xiao’s appearance, everything changed.
"Uncle, haha, look what you’re saying. But Father is still very busy now; he probably doesn’t have time." After a brief silence, Wang Tianqiong laughed loudly, trying to suppress the unease in his heart.
He dared not agree to Wang Xiao’s words on Wang Xiong’s behalf.
Coming to Jinling Royal Mansion today, though it was under Wang Xiong’s indication, if things didn’t go as planned and Wang Xiong pursued it, Wang Xiong wouldn’t care whether he’s his son or not.
Moreover, Wang Tianqiong vaguely knew that Wang Xiong captured Xiao Ying not purely for threats.
"Uncle, don’t worry, Xiao Ying is in our home; she definitely won’t be mistreated." Not wanting to confront Wang Xiao further, Wang Tianqiong immediately diverted the topic: "But as you can see, Secretary An and his son died tragically, and the Vice Chairman of our Azure Dragon Commerce had his arms crippled. Since they call me Crown Prince, if I don’t bring the culprit to justice, then I won’t be able to hold my head up in front of my men in the future."
With a smile on his face, he stared at Ye Guichen with eyes like a hungry wolf.
Wang Xiao stood firm: "Mr. Ye saved my life. If I hand him over, wouldn’t that be repaying kindness with betrayal?"
"Uncle, don’t make things difficult for me." Wang Tianqiong smiled awkwardly.
As he spoke, the people Wang Tianqiong brought, as well as the original Azure Dragon Commerce people, instinctively stepped forward two paces, seemingly ready to seize him.
The previously relaxed atmosphere became tense once again.
Wang Xiao squinted: "Wang Tianqiong, considering you’re my nephew, I don’t want to squabble with you. What, you falsely accuse my children, injure my son, your elder brother, and now you want to snatch people from under my nose?"
Wang Tianqiong feigned ignorance: "Uncle, look at what you’re saying. Wang Ruolan is also my sister, some words weren’t said by me. Oh, I heard it from Brother Renfeng; this matter has nothing to do with me."
"Wang Renfeng is my Jinling Royal Mansion’s man; I will handle him. I don’t need your input!" Wang Xiao’s tone became icy: "Go back; tell Wang Xiong to take good care of Xiao Ying, I will personally go to fetch her!"
"Uncle, you really won’t let him go?" Wang Tianqiong retreated two steps, his tone becoming much harsher.
If Wang Xiao insisted on resisting to the end, he wouldn’t mind taking Ye Guichen away.
After all, Ye Guichen killed An Cangsheng and his son, causing a commotion in the underground arena, and crippled Vice Chairman Pang Quan’s arms.
If Ye Guichen remained free, the face of Azure Dragon Commerce would feel like it had been slapped.
"No release!" Before Wang Xiao could speak again, Wang Chaoyang, supported by Wang Ruolan, stumbled over: "If you dare snatch someone from Jinling Royal Mansion, go ahead! I’d like to see how brave you are!"
With a whoosh!
The Jinling Royal Mansion bodyguards who were still hesitant understood the situation the moment Wang Xiao came out, and all moved forward.
Duan Nanye quickly led Dragon Teeth’s men to confront those from Azure Dragon Commerce: "Indeed, if you want to take Brother Ye away, show us if you have the capability!"
Wang Tianqiong frowned.
He hadn’t expected these people to be willing to fight to the death.
If the Jinling Royal Mansion bodyguards had stood by previously, he would have absolute confidence in taking the mansion.
But the moment Wang Xiao appeared, everything went out of his control.
Gritting his teeth, Wang Tianqiong knew it would be difficult to take Ye Guichen today, he pointed hatefully at Ye Guichen: "Ye, you’d better stay in the Prince Mansion forever; otherwise, if you step out, you’ll be on your own!"
Finishing, he bowed to Wang Xiao: "Uncle, I have other matters, I’ll take my leave!"
Turning around, he intended to leave.
The Azure Dragon Commerce people were unwilling but still glared at Ye Guichen, preparing to depart.
Especially Pang Quan, full of unwillingness but helpless.
Seeing Wang Tianqiong leave, Wang Xiao and Wang Chaoyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Though Wang Xiao was a fierce tiger, he was after all a wounded tiger; insisting on fighting might lead to mutual destruction.
But just then, an unexpected voice rang out: "Hold on."
This voice was like a thunderclap in a clear sky.
Ye Guichen smiled humbly at Wang Xiao before, under everyone’s gaze, letting go of Wang Xiao’s arm, stepping forward two paces, and looking at Wang Tianqiong: "King Wang allows you to leave out of mercy, but our matters remain unresolved. Leaving just like that seems inappropriate, don’t you think?"
This statement made Wang Chaoyang and others tense.
Duan Nanye, full of anxiety, stepped forward beside Ye Guichen, continuously signaling at Ye Guichen. Original content can be found at novel·fire.net
The Divine Crossbow Guards fought to the death, Luo Meng died, making everyone in Jinling Royal Mansion on edge.
Even Wang Chaoyang had been severely injured.
If things truly escalated, it wouldn’t be beneficial to Wang Xiao or Ye Guichen.
Wang Tianqiong’s departure meant mutual happiness.
Now Ye Guichen jumped out, was he thinking not enough trouble had been stirred?
Wang Ruolan’s chest heaved intensely with anger, murmuring: "This boy, what exactly is he trying to do?"
Though being a woman, she understood the current situation clearly.
Ye Guichen stepping forward, was he afraid of Jinling Royal Mansion’s trouble not being enough?
Wang Chaoyang also frowned, puzzled, glancing at Wang Xiao.
Wang Xiao gently shook his head, indicating to observe.
Wang Tianqiong turned around, malignantly looking at Ye Guichen: "Brother Ye, with Uncle protecting you this much, shouldn’t you be happy? By the looks of it, you want more?"
In Wang Tianqiong’s view, Ye Guichen’s arrogance stemmed entirely from borrowing others’ power.
Ye Guichen ignored Wang Tianqiong’s mockery, pointing at Pang Quan: "He still owes me one hundred twenty-three billion, leaving without paying seems inappropriate, don’t you think?"
"You little bastard..." Pang Quan, his arms crippled, seeing Wang Tianqiong bringing people today, hoped to get his revenge thoroughly but was leaving defeated once more, feeling extremely frustrated, now being asked for money by Ye Guichen, how could he bear it?
Unable to refrain from cursing, but under Wang Tianqiong’s gaze, he grudgingly shut his mouth.
Before coming, Wang Tianqiong also heard about the underground arena matters, roughly knowing its origins.
Clearly understanding Pang Quan’s tricks.
But now had to pretend ignorance: "Oh, Mr. Ye, Vice Chairman Pang owes you money?"
