"Xia Haiquan, how dare you do this?!" Chairman Xu stared at Xia Haiquan in disbelief. His veins could be seen popping on his forehead as he said that in a trembling voice.

"Why wouldn't I dare?"

Xia Haiquan narrowed his eyes. His gaze had a fearsome gaze to it. "I'll give you another chance. Hand over all of Wanrong Technology's shares and technology. If you do that, I'll spare your lives!"

"Xia Haiquan, you're crazy. What do you think your fate will be if you do that?" Chairman Ouyang sneered. "It's not too late to turn back now."

"Turn back? Wahaha. Are you trying to make me laugh to my death?" Xia Haiquan burst out laughing condescendingly at all those around him. "Seems like it's time for you to give up."

With that, he clapped his hands. Five people immediately walked out from each room adjacent to the private room and entered theirs!

There were a total of ten people; each of them emitting the aura of a killer. Although they were dressed differently, they were all wearing black with a unique symbol printed on their clothes. They looked down at the group condescendingly as they lost their ability to resist.

"They're...foreigners?" Chairman Xu's expression changed. Compared to before, his heart fell into complete despair. Goosebumps appeared all over his body as he was filled with frustrations and anger.

"Xia Haiquan, you're crazy! Regardless of the situation, you can't be in league with foreigners. Do you know you're betraying your country? Don't you know the importance of technology?" Chairman Ouyang bellowed as his body trembled.

"Xia Haiquan, you're conspiring with foreigners to steal our country's technology. That's a felony! I have the right to arrest you!" Xu Nan blurted.

"Hehe, don't give me that talk about patriotism. I'll work with whoever that benefits me!" Xia Haiquan sneered. Following that, he shifted his gaze to Xu Nan. "Niece Xu, don't bother struggling. This is Bone-Softening Powder. It's impossible for you to use your strength!"

He was finally showing his true colors. The previous friendliness was just to lull them to take the poison!

"That's right. That's the Bone-Softening Powder of our Earth's Gate Dojo. It's tailor-made for martial artists. Even a martial artist will lose his ability to move!" said someone behind him in a cold voice.

That was obviously the leader. He had a hooked nose and emitted a terrifying aura, pressuring all those around him. One could tell that he was a ruthless person.

"Earth's Gate Dojo? You're from the Sun Nation!" Xu Nan's face turned pale. Sun Nation's evil deeds were still fresh in her mind. Most importantly, Xia Haiquan was actually working with those from the Sun Nation. That was just too low!

With the people from Earth's Gate interfering, it threw them into utter despair as the Earth's Gate Dojo were fully capable of transporting them out of the country. By then, their fate would be out of their control! This matter must have been planned way in advance.

"Uncle Xu." Right then, Xia Jun suddenly stood up. His fiery gaze locked onto Xu Nan. "Please let me propose my marriage to your family!"

'Marriage proposal?'

Everyone was caught off guard. Meanwhile, Xu Hua's expression instantly turned extremely ugly. "Xia Jun, don't you dare!"

"Hehe, Uncle Xu, I'm being respectful because you're my elder. It's not like you don't know about my love for Xu Nan. However, you've never considered my feelings at all. How am I not worthy of Xu Nan?!"

"Ptooey! I'd rather die than marry you!" Xu Nan retorted immediately.

"Hehehe, hahaha…" Xia Jun's eyes turned red. He growled through gritted teeth like a mad dog, "Why wouldn't you accept me? I know. It's because you're in love with this little vermin!"

Xia Jun pointed at Ye Lingchen. "Just what do you see in him? He's just a little more handsome, smarter, and slightly better than me! What else does he have?"

His words stunned everyone. For a short time, they were at a loss for words. That was definitely a ruthless person.

Ye Lingchen finally understood where Xia Jun's animosity toward him originated from. The root of the problem was his brilliance. The tall trees would face the strongest winds!

"I'll be honest with you! Xu Wanqing's previous kidnapping was because of us leaking information to the Earth's Gate! Since you don't appreciate me, then I'll destroy you and humiliate you! Wahahaha…" Xia Jun seemed to have lost it. "Too bad the previous attempt was foiled by that moron Superman Y!"

"You're shameless!" Xu Nan shot him an icy glare.

"Nothing will be in your control today!" Xia Jun grinned cruelly as he walked toward Xu Nan. "I'll marry you tonight!"

"You.." Terror flashed in Xu Nan's eyes as her body trembled.

Chairman Xu and Chairman Ouyang's faces were as red as lobsters, overflowing with rage. Tears flowed down their cheeks. "Chairman Ye, Nan'er, Wanqing, Qing'er. This is all my fault."

The outcome was obvious for those that fell into the hands of those from Earth's Gate Dojo.

"Stay away from me!" Xu Nan screamed at the top of her lungs.

"Wahaha, scream all you want. The more you scream, the more excited I'll be. I'll bring you next door right now to complete our marriage ceremony!" Xia Jun laughed like a madman.

"Such a ruthless man!"

A calm voice spread across the room, catching everyone off guard. Their gaze immediately focused on the source of that voice.

All they saw was a calm Ye Lingchen. He did not show a shred of fear. In fact, he was still holding onto the cup in his hand and took another sip of the liquor, seemingly without a care.

"Master, that liquor is poisoned!" Xu Nan immediately warned him. The others were stunned, unable to comprehend what he was planning.

"It matters not." Ye Lingchen waved his hand nonchalantly, maintaining his carefree demeanor, and took another sip.

"Acting tough?"

Xia Jun was taken aback at first, then laughed as he ridiculed him excitedly, "It's said that the heavens is fair. If a door opened for you, then a window would surely be shut. The wisdom of the old is right! You have amazing abilities, yet you're stupid! In this aspect, you're my lesser! Wahahaha…"

"Do you know that the more smug you are, the worse your crying will be later?" Ye Lingchen stated calmly.

"What nonsense!" Xia Jun did not take Ye Lingchen seriously. He sneered, "Do you know why we used such a precious commodity like the Bone-Softening Powder on you guys? It's because we know that you're good at Kungfu! It seems that you're addicted to showing off. Your intelligence is affected!"

The people from Earth's Gate Dojo swept through those in the room, then finally focused onto Ye Lingchen. Their voices were devoid of emotions. "We've investigated you. You're highly skilled in technology and should've mastered the core technology of the autonomous vehicle. If you hand that technology to us, not only would we spare your life, we can ensure you live the rest of your life comfortably! Our Sun Nation treasures talent."

"What if I say no?" Ye Lingchen asked with a smile.

Seeing Ye Lingchen's smile, that person felt a sudden ominous feeling in his heart. However, he still offered a reply, "If you don't, we have 108 ways to make you share them when we get back to Earth's Gate Dojo. However, if that's the case, your life will not be as comfortable."

"Earth's Gate Dojo. What a persistent group. It was also your people who visited my residence previously, right?" Ye Lingchen shook his head. His eyes suddenly glowed with unrivaled sharpness. "Who do you think you are to act with impunity in China?!"
