Chapter 401 - 399: Lin Yafei Takes the Blame
Time trickled away, and the atmosphere at Jinpeng Hotel was so tense that passersby froze like cicadas in winter, not daring to even take a deep breath. Someone made a call to the police, but there was no sign of law enforcement, an obvious indication that someone with power had suppressed the matter.
The entire second floor was deserted save for Wang Kai and Lu Tianxing’s group. Everyone else had stealthily slipped away. When immortals clash, the mortals suffer, and no one wanted to become collateral damage.
Eight minutes later, a black Mercedes sped towards Jinpeng Hotel, closely followed by a Mercedes-Benz van. Accompanied by a harsh screech of brakes, both vehicles came to a halt right in front of the hotel’s entrance.
The door of the Mercedes van swung open, and seven or eight men clad in black suits, their faces stern and their builds imposing, exited the vehicle, all resembling bodyguards. Each of them wore an expressionless face and emitted an aura that screamed ’keep out,’ making it clear they were not to be trifled with.
This group of burly men moved in unison, taking positions on either side of Jinpeng Hotel’s entrance, their commanding presence drawing side glances from onlookers.
At the same time, the front door of the leading Mercedes opened, and a grim-faced Wang Yanzhi stepped out, his eyes brimming with lethal intent. In Modu, someone had dared to break his son’s leg, which was tantamount to challenging the Wang Family’s authority. Those who dared challenge that authority only had death awaiting them.
"Master."
Upon seeing Wang Yanzhi alight from the car, the several bodyguards immediately greeted with respect.
"Let’s go upstairs."
Wang Yanzhi, exuding an icy killing aura, made a beeline for the second floor of Jinpeng Hotel.
When he reached the second floor, Wang Yanzhi instantly noticed his son lying on the ground like a dog, his right knee twisted at an unnatural angle, blood flowing freely.
