Divine Doctor's Harem



...

As Cui Hong looked at Black Robe lying motionless on the ground, his heart raced, almost bursting out of his chest.

He could even hear the pounding sound of his own heartbeat, deafening in his ears.

At the same time, cold sweat poured down his forehead.

For the first time in his life, he felt a bone-chilling fear deep in his marrow!

His greatest reliance was Lafayette behind him and Black Robe, a warrior-level assassin. But now, the warrior-level assassin was killed, as if slaughtering a chicken, his neck twisted and thrown in front of him.

It was a warning, a threat, and quite possibly a clue!

Sweat dripped onto the ground, wetting the floor!

"Boss, we're in trouble!"

Just then, Fourth Brother, covered in wounds, rushed over in a panicked state, saying, "Zhao Changsheng from the Zhao family has arrived, along with the Zhao family's warrior-level experts from the War Department."

"They're leading a large group of troops and charging towards us. It looks like they mean business!"

As he spoke, he handed Cui Hong a video captured in the Zhao family village to watch.

In the video, numerous magnificent Zhao family youths led their clan members, surging out of the Zhao family village with an overwhelming momentum.

Zhao Changsheng was at the forefront.

He was less than thirty years old, not particularly burly, but exuded an incredibly powerful aura. His eyes were like lightning, and he emanated a terrifying presence that commanded respect.

Even through the video, one could sense his extraordinary valor.

At this moment, Fifth Brother also ran over from a distance, trembling as he spoke, "Boss, based on my investigation, Wang Chao is also rushing over here!"

Upon hearing this, Cui Hong's face turned even paler, and his heart sank to the bottom of a valley.

Zhao Changsheng, one of the foundations of the Zhao family, was a legendary genius, currently at the peak of his power!

Moreover, Zhao Changsheng had fought Lafayette last year, and their battle was so intense that it turned the sky dark. In the end, Lafayette won by a narrow margin.

At that time, Lafayette even said that in a desperate fight, the outcome was uncertain.

Now, after a year of seclusion and cultivation, Zhao Changsheng's strength had undoubtedly become even more formidable.

A master like him, leading so many talented youths from the Zhao family, clearly meant to annihilate him!

"Boss, what should we do now?"

Both Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother looked at Cui Hong, their faces pale.

They were well aware of the formidable nature of Zhao Changsheng. Once he made a move, if Lafayette didn't intervene, no one could stop him!

"It's alright, I think they're just bluffing. Don't forget, we have the unfathomable Lafayette behind us. Even if it's the Zhao family, they wouldn't dare to engage in a life-and-death battle with Lafayette. Stay calm!" Cui Hong wiped the sweat from his forehead, lit a cigarette, and put on a seemingly calm demeanor as he coldly said, "I'll call Lafayette now and request backup."

"If the Zhao family wants to play, then we'll play to the end!"

"You stay here and guard. Whoever dares to attack, show them no mercy!"

His voice was ice-cold, brimming with killing intent.

After saying those words, he wore a cold expression and walked into the underground bank.

"What's going on? Is the boss really going to clash with the Zhao family to the end?"

"I don't know, but one thing's for sure: the boss is definitely serious this time."

Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother exchanged glances, seeing the horror and dread in each other's eyes.

If they were to really fight against the Zhao family, they would certainly be no match!

Moreover, the main issue was that they had initiated the conflict with the Zhao family. Even if they brought Lafayette into the picture, he wouldn't be able to help them because they were clearly in the wrong.

"Hmm? Who is this person? Why are they lying here? It seems like they're already dead!"

"Whoever they are, just toss them aside!"

Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother collaborated to toss the black robe to the side. Then, they called their subordinates to dispose of the body.

They sat down, each lighting a cigarette, gazing into the distance with deep concern.

To confront the colossal force of the Zhao family head-on, unless Lafayette was willing to stand by Cui Hong's side, gathering the Four Heavenly Kings and going all out, they would have no chance in battle!

Otherwise, relying solely on Cui Hong's abilities, he would undoubtedly be no match for the Zhao family.

"Fourth Brother, what do you think? Do you believe Lafayette will really help us?" Fifth Brother asked while smoking.

"No!"

Fourth Brother shook his head and said solemnly, "In this business, apart from loyalty, what matters most is self-interest. Lafayette is already old, it's time for him to enjoy his later years. His business network extends throughout Canton City and even overseas!"

"If we engage in a full-scale war with the Zhao family, his business will suffer heavy losses."

"So, I conclude that Brother Cui is going to suffer this time."

"What? If Lafayette doesn't stand with us, how can we possibly fight against the Zhao family?" Fifth Brother's expression changed.

"That's why I'm thinking of running away!"

Fourth Brother extinguished his cigarette and looked at Fifth Brother, saying, "Do you want to stay and defend with Brother Cui, confront the Zhao family head-on, or do you want to run away and save your life?"

Upon hearing Fifth Brother's words, his expression became conflicted. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said sternly, "We got into this business to seek wealth, not to throw our lives away. What Brother Cui is doing is clearly leading us to our doom!"

"Engaging in thankless endeavors like this would make us fools. Self-preservation is paramount. Everything else is nonsense. I'm leaving with you!"

They exchanged glances, both feeling uncertain and lacking any sense of victory.

Thus, they quickly reached a consensus and left immediately.

Before their departure, they instructed the subordinates of the underground bank, informing them that they were just taking a break and to call them if anything happened.

Having uttered that, they swiftly disappeared without a trace.

Underground bank, CEO's office.

Cui Hong walked in with a fearful expression, his gaze grave, and his mouth constantly muttering, "Damn it, how did this happen? How did Wang Chao become so powerful? He even took down the god-level assassin!"

Recalling the death of the black-robed figure and the horrifying scene of over thirty people in his villa from last time, his face turned pale.

At this moment, he fully understood.

Wang Chao was incredibly strong. Without relying on Lafayette's power, he could not possibly contend with Wang Chao, no matter how much strength he exerted.

Moreover, the Zhao family had now mobilized!

There was no possibility that Lafayette would stand by his side!

"Damn it! If I had known that Song Henian and Pei Donghu had such powerful brothers, I should have taken them out years ago, erasing all traces of their existence! No one would be able to find them!" Cui Hong regretted bitterly.

However, regret was useless now.

He turned on the office computer and took out a bank security token, immediately transferring all the money from the underground bank's accounts to his personal account.

After completing these actions, he stood up and looked at the body of Yang Ao covered with a white cloth. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yang Ao, I'm sorry. The enemy is too strong. Uncle can not avenge you this time."

"But rest assured, a gentleman's revenge takes ten years. Uncle will always bear in mind this grudge. When the time is right, I'll kill Wang Chao and avenge you!"

Having uttered that, he no longer paid any attention to Yang Ao. He opened the hidden door in the office and walked inside, swiftly leaving through a secret passage.

Inside the underground bank, all the high-ranking figures had fled, leaving only a group of underlings to guard the place.
