Keen-eyed individuals had already recognized the man in the Zhongshan suit. It was none other than the notorious Grandpa Ma from Jing'an City, Wang Mazi!

Surrounding Wang Mazi, seven or eight robust men swiftly gathered around Xu Hao and Liu Ruyan.

Xu Hao was conversing with some business managers when he suddenly saw the seven or eight sturdy men encircling him, causing him to pause in surprise. Wang Mazi stopped in front of Xu Hao, furrowed his brow, and gave Xu Hao a cold look, "So, you are Xu Hao? You dare to mess with my people. You've got some nerve!"

Before Xu Hao could even speak, Wu Zhongcai hurriedly stepped forward to shield him, "Grandpa Ma, have you arrived? Is there something you need from Young Master Xu? Could there be some misunderstanding here?" Seeing Grandpa Ma's aggressive demeanor, it seemed to be nothing good.

Therefore, Wu Zhongcai immediately tried to find an excuse for Xu Hao, but Grandpa Ma didn't seem to give any credit to Wu Zhongcai, "General Manager Wu, this is none of your business. It's best if you don't interfere!"

A sheepish smile appeared on Wu Zhongcai's face, "Grandpa Ma, Young Master Xu is a great benefactor of the Wu Corporation! Could you possibly give us some face? Maybe we can discuss this amicably?"

Wang Mazi scoffed, "Give face? Why should I, Wang Mazi, give you face? Scram! If you don't scram, be careful; I might just have my men beat you up as well!"

Wang Mazi's expression changed, and immediately a bodyguard stepped forward and pushed Wu Zhongcai to the side.

Wu Zhongcai, albeit a prominent figure in Jing'an City, couldn't hold his face when treated like this by Wang Mazi. Wu Zhongcai's face showed a bit of disgrace, "Wang Mazi, I respect you, calling you Grandpa Ma! Since you're withholding face like this, then don't blame me for being impolite!"

Wu Zhongcai waved his hand toward the other side. Immediately, five or six suited bodyguards rushed over, confronting the security from Grandpa Ma's side head-on.

Seeing Wu Zhongcai's actions, Wang Mazi couldn't help but snort coldly, "Wu Zhongcai, have you grown balls now, daring to oppose me? Do you really think I, Wang Mazi, am easy to bully?"

But Wu Zhongcai knew how formidable Xu Hao was; Xu Hao had managed to get Liu Tianxiong to speak on his behalf. Liu Tianxiong had even called Wu Zhongcai to tell him that Xu Hao was a person even he dared not provoke.

In Jing'an City, although Wang Mazi was formidable, when it came to strength, he was somewhat inferior to Liu Tianxiong.

Since Xu Hao had Liu Tianxiong's backing, he certainly wouldn't fear Wang Mazi, which is why Wu Zhongcai didn't hesitate to side with Xu Hao.

"Hmph, Wang Mazi, if you dare touch a single hair on Young Master Xu today, I will fight you with my life!" Wu Zhongcai stood his ground resolutely.

The atmosphere, which had been harmonious until now, suddenly faced such a drastic turn of events. All the guests at the scene stopped their conversations and turned their eyes in their direction.

Seeing that it was Wang Mazi and Wu Zhongcai from the Wu Corporation confronting each other, several people who planned to step forward and mediate halted in their tracks. Both were difficult people to mess with.

Wang Mazi's brows knitted slightly; Wu Zhongcai usually maintained a genteel and affable image in their circle, but now he was ready to fight to the death?

Since when had the Wu Corporation gotten so close to the Liu Corporation?

"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for not being polite!" Wang Mazi snorted coldly, "Get them. Anyone who dares to hit my people is slapping me in the face!"

The situation was tense, with both parties on the verge of a violent clash at any moment.

Liu Ruyan stood next to Xu Hao, gently holding his arm, "Honey..."

Xu Hao gently patted Liu Ruyan's arm, "Don't worry. I can handle it."

Wang Mazi had come here for a reason that Xu Hao had already guessed. It was said that Ma San was the chief instructor of the Shenying Security Group, and Wang Mazi had gotten the beating from Xu Hao at Antique Street. Now, Wang Mazi was here to save face.

Before either side made a move, Xu Hao rubbed his fists and, with a smile on his face, looked at Wang Mazi, "Hehe, Grandpa Ma, do you want to fight? I'm all in, would you prefer a one-on-one or a group fight?"

Seeing Xu Hao intending to step up himself, Wu Zhongcai stepped forward anxiously and said to Xu Hao, "Young Master Xu, Grandpa Ma is not someone to be provoked lightly. How about you and President Liu leave first? I'll hold them off here!"

Xu Hao gave a light smile, "No need! General Manager Wu, I appreciate your kindness, just stand back and watch."

"Ignorant boy, arrogantly presumptuous!" Hearing Xu Hao's arrogant tone, Wang Mazi snorted coldly, "What era is this still talking about one-on-one fights?"

"Hehe, Grandpa Ma, you've misunderstood. When I said one-on-one, I meant just the two of us, 1 vs 1; and by group fight, I meant me against a group of you!" Xu Hao's voice wasn't loud, but all the guests at the scene widened their eyes, looking at Xu Hao like he was a fool.

Was the son-in-law of the Liu family too arrogant? This соntеnt оriginаtеs frоm М1VLЕМРYR, Мy Virtuаl Librаry Еmpirе.

One man against a group? Did he really think he had three heads and six arms?

But Liu Ruyan had personally witnessed Xu Hao's capabilities at Antique Street, where he truly fought against a group by himself, so she wasn't too concerned about Xu Hao's words, "Honey, be careful!"

Having said that, Liu Ruyan and Wu Zhongcai silently took a few steps back, Wu Zhongcai still somewhat worried, "President Liu, are you sure it's okay?"

Liu Ruyan smiled faintly, "Don't worry."

Previously, Liu Ruyan had a strong dislike for the Wu Corporation because Wu Yu was always after her, even using company investments as a condition for her to spend a night with him. But today, Wu Zhongcai taking the initiative to defend Xu Hao somewhat changed Liu Ruyan's attitude toward the Wu Corporation.

So arrogantly did Xu Hao pose, that there was no need for Wang Mazi to give the signal; the bodyguards from the Shenying Security Group, swung their fists from all directions towards Xu Hao.

Ma San was their chief instructor, and having been beaten up by Xu Hao, their anger had no other outlet until they saw Xu Hao, their eyes reddening.

The whooshing sound of fists slicing through the air demonstrated the extraordinary skills of these bodyguards.

However, since his bloodline had awakened, Xu Hao's vision, hearing, and strength had undergone earth-shattering changes. Particularly after this afternoon's training in the security room, Xu Hao had practiced many cultivation techniques and martial skills, advancing his abilities to a new level.

To Xu Hao, these attackers seemed to move in slow motion. He could easily predict their every move, and with a cold snort, Xu Hao's figure suddenly blurred into an afterimage on the spot. He struck like lightning, as if a wolf entering a flock of sheep.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

After a series of thudding sounds, before anyone could even see what happened, seven or eight burly bodyguards suddenly flew out in all directions like sand, instantly lying on the ground, motionless like dead dogs.

The whole process lasted less than three seconds, leaving Wu Zhongcai beside him completely stunned, his neck stretched out in shock!

The eyes of the surrounding guests also dropped to the ground, was Xu Hao too fierce?

Xu Hao gently dusted off his hands, took two steps toward Wang Mazi, and said indifferently, "Grandpa Ma, now shall we have our one-on-one fight?"
