Chapter 872: Chapter 872
Inside a lavish mansion, decorated like a palace.
A pale-faced young man sat sullenly on a tiger-skin sofa.
Opposite him stood a middle-aged butler, and a blonde noblewoman knelt on the ground.
The atmosphere in the hall was oppressively gloomy, almost thick enough to cut.
After a long while, the pale-faced young man finally spoke.
"Is this the ’foolproof’ plan you talked about?" the young man’s face twisted as he spoke.
"Master, it’s all my fault! Please punish me!" the middle-aged butler said with his head bowed.
"Humph! Do you think admitting guilt will recover those losses? It took me so much effort to get that from the forbidden area of the John family! I almost ended up trapped there by those damned white dogs from Country M!" the young man angrily said.
"Master, I was wrong!" the middle-aged butler weakly said.
"Humph! Just admitting fault is useless! I went through great hardship for those blood sacrificial fruits, luring the Five Tigers Sect there and sacrificing the Tiger God Hall and over forty Void Transformation Realm experts! Do you know how much effort I spent cultivating them?" the young man said with a grim face.
The middle-aged butler directly kneeled on the ground.
"Master, I acknowledge my mistake, please punish me!" the butler said.
"Humph! Now isn’t the time for talking, the treasure is already lost. But if I don’t vent this anger, I won’t feel right!" the young man said, his face contorted.
"Master! I have another plan!" the middle-aged butler pondered for a moment and said.
"Speak!" the young man coldly said.
"Master, I heard reports that recently a large number of martial artists have come rushing to Nanhua City, totaling over a thousand! They seem to be after the Heavenly Rank Supreme Martial Skill ’Wind God Leg’! Moreover, from the information I got, the new family head of the Murong Family, Shangguan Baiyun, seems to be involved! Why don’t we use these martial artists to stir things up and seize the opportunity to annihilate the Murong Family? With the wealth they’ve amassed over hundreds of years, it should certainly cover our losses!" the butler said.
"Hmm? The Heavenly Rank Supreme Martial Skill ’Wind God Leg’, you say?" the young man furrowed his brow.
"Yes, according to current information, this seems really credible," the butler replied.
"Humph! How dare they offend me and snatch my treasure! They’ll pay a huge price!" the young man said murderously.
"Master, I’ll go prepare immediately," the butler said.
"Wait!" the young man suddenly sneered.
"Master, do you have other instructions?" the butler timidly asked.
"Haha! It’s stifling to hold such anger in; it needs an outlet, right, Uncle Mo?" the young man gleefully said.
After speaking, he tore off his clothes and approached the kneeling blonde beauty.
"Uncle Mo, no need to kneel, get up! Let’s do this together!" the young man commanded.

In the Cheng Family mansion.
Only after half an hour did Zhang Xiaohao get dressed and head downstairs.
"Sir, your food is ready; the ladies have already gone to the company," Sister Zhou said with a smile.
"Okay," Zhang Xiaohao nodded.
He sat at the dining table and began eating.
"By the way, sir, was there a thief in the house?" Sister Zhou suddenly asked.
"What’s up, Sister Zhou?" Zhang Xiaohao replied puzzled.
"The floor in the restroom suddenly had a piece missing out of it," Sister Zhou said.
"..." Zhang Xiaohao was speechless.
After thinking for a bit, he replied.
"Sister Zhou, call the property management later and have them replace the flooring."
"Okay," Sister Zhou agreed.
Then, Zhang Xiaohao picked up his chopsticks and continued eating.
After finishing his meal, Zhang Xiaohao headed outside.
He left the mansion and made his way toward the company.
Zhang Xiaohao was only 500 meters from the company when he suddenly stopped.
A crowd had gathered ahead, pointing and gossiping.
A familiar figure suddenly entered Zhang Xiaohao’s view.
"Hmm, is that Ning’er? What’s she doing here?" Zhang Xiaohao wondered.
But looking at the current situation, Ning’er seemed to be in a very bad spot, surrounded by a group of thuggish men.
"Damn! They’ve got nerves, messing with my woman! They’re courting death!" Zhang Xiaohao sneered.
With a few swift steps, he reached the crowd.
"You little brat! You lot sure have guts, knocking my wife to the ground and then denying it! If you don’t fork over twenty grand today, don’t blame me for being ruthless!" the scarred face man roared menacingly.
Six large men surrounded Ning’er and her two friends tightly.
"You’re lying! We didn’t knock her down! We were just trying to help her up, and before we could, you arrived! How can you be so unreasonable?" Ning’er said angrily.
"Humph! Do you think I’m blind? Can’t see who knocked her down? My wife is pregnant, so you’d better cough up twenty grand in compensation, and we’ll let this go! But if you’re unwise, don’t blame me for being merciless to you three!" the scarred face threatened murderously.
"You dare!" Ning’er and her friends shouted angrily.
"Humph! You knocked my wife down first, why wouldn’t I dare? Even if this goes to the police, we’re in the right!" the scarred face arrogantly stated.
"Since you’re stubborn, we’re calling the police now!" Ning’er declared.
She took out her phone, preparing to dial 110.
"Damn! You little brat, daring to play tricks in front of me? I’ll kill you!" the scarred face raged.
He urgently charged forward, heading towards Ning’er.
He raised his right palm to slap Ning’er’s delicate face.
"Ah! Someone! Help!" Seeing Scarred Face move aggressively, the other two girls urgently cried for help.
"Shout all you want! I’ll see which of these surrounding trash dares meddle in my affairs!" the scarred face arrogantly said.
As his palm was about to strike Ning’er’s beautiful face.
A cold voice suddenly sounded.
"You have a lot of nerve; I’m curious, who gave you the courage to bully my woman?" Zhang Xiaohao coldly sneered.
In a flash, he appeared in front of Ning’er.
With a chilling grip, he caught Scarred Face’s hand as it swung down.
