Provocation!
Clear, blatant provocation!
No one in the bar ever expected someone to so brazenly provoke the King's Bar's thugs.
The burly man who had been splashed in the face with alcohol froze for a moment, then immediately flew into a rage. "You little bastard, are you looking for death?"
They usually followed Li Bao around. Though their days weren't spent licking blood off the blade, if someone dared to cause trouble here, they definitely wouldn't hold back.
Without a word, he swung his fist at Ning Chengyuan.
However, before his fist could land on Ning Chengyuan's face, he was sent flying backward, crashing into several tables before coming to a stop.
A gasp of shock erupted.
They saw that in front of Ning Chengyuan, there was a black-skinned woman in tight clothing blocking the way.
The woman's right leg was still lifted in midair, coldly scanning the surroundings.
Everyone in the bar froze. Someone immediately shouted, "Damn, call for backup, get them!"
Whoosh, whoosh!
In no time, dozens of burly men wielding sticks stormed into the bar.
The patrons who had come to have fun screamed in fright, scrambling back.
"Kid, you actually dare to cause trouble here?"
A manager-like figure stepped forward, staring at Ning Chengyuan. "Do you know where this is?"
Ning Chengyuan smiled, holding up the contract in front of the manager-like figure. "This bar is now mine. Get everyone out, I have some words to say."
The manager glanced at the contract and laughed. "You think you can take this bar with just a piece of paper? Ha, you must be joking."
As he spoke, he extended his thumb. "This place belongs to Brother Black Panther. If you want to take it, you should ask if the brothers agree first!"
He took two steps back. "Brothers, wake this clueless guy up!"
The burly men, holding their sticks, charged forward.
The white female bodyguard did not move, just crossed her arms as if watching a show.
The black female bodyguard cracked her neck a couple of times, glanced disdainfully at the burly men, and leaped forward like a cat, her high-heeled feet flashing as she kicked out.
With each kick, a burly man was sent flying.
In less than a minute, dozens of men were lying on the ground, wailing in pain.
Some had been kicked in vital spots, their life or death uncertain.
The manager was terrified, hiding behind a table and shivering.
Ning Chengyuan walked up to him, patted his shoulder, and pulled him up. "From today on, I'm your only boss, got it?"
The manager, now thoroughly frightened, did not dare say a word and quickly nodded.
"Haha, good, next one!" Ning Chengyuan walked out of the bar without saying another word.
Bai Qinghe frowned as she watched Ning Chengyuan's back, clenched her fists secretly, and walked out of the bar too.
But she did not follow him. Instead, she went back to the Chen Group alone.
Bai Qinghe understood Ning Chengyuan's intentions clearly.
He wanted to use violent means to consolidate Yun City and, by the way, give her a warning.
Lakefront Residence.
When Ye Guichen and Zhou Weijun left the restaurant, Li Bao didn't leave but waited at the door.
Seeing Ye Guichen come out, Li Bao hurriedly approached, full of respect. "Mr. Ye, you finally came out."
Although Zhou Weijun had not interacted much with Li Bao, he knew who Li Bao was—a well-known figure.
He did not expect Li Bao to show such respect to Ye Guichen, causing a flash of surprise in his eyes.
Ye Guichen nodded and said to Zhou Weijun, "Brother Zhou, I need to have a word with Black Panther. You go ahead and prepare."
Zhou Weijun, not knowing Ye Guichen's plans but understanding that Ye Guichen wanted him to host the banquet tomorrow, nodded. "Brother Ye, shall I pick you up tomorrow?"
"Hmm." Ye Guichen didn't want to alert the enemy. Dealing with a small Ning Chengyuan wasn't difficult, but Ning Chengyuan had the Ning Family behind him, and behind the Ning Family, there was still the Azure Dragon Commerce.
He initially didn't plan to bother with them, but since they had come to his territory and tried to take Yun City's assets, this was something Ye Guichen couldn't tolerate.
After Zhou Weijun left, Li Bao, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, asked, "Mr. Ye, you saw it too. Ning Chengyuan is just too bold. What should we do about it?"
Ning Chengyuan's killing spree in front of Li Bao and the others had a clear effect. Li Bao's people were all a bit scared.
After they left, they all went back to their hideouts to make arrangements.
Even if they signed the contract, no one would willingly hand over their assets.
Moreover, two fists are no match for four hands.
They couldn't believe Ning Chengyuan had the ability to take over the whole place completely.
Li Bao had similar thoughts.
He had nearly a hundred bars. Unless Ning Chengyuan had three heads and six arms, he couldn't possibly take over half the bars in a short time.
However, Li Bao still felt uneasy, so he waited for Ye Guichen, seeking his help.
After all, he had seen Ye Guichen's methods.
If Ye Guichen was willing to help and kill the two female bodyguards, things would be much easier.
Ye Guichen looked at Li Bao. "Are you scared?"
Li Bao, on hearing this, immediately straightened up and gritted his teeth. "Mr. Ye, I, Black Panther, haven't just been in Yun City for a day or two! Scared? What a joke. But Ning Chengyuan's foreign women do seem very powerful. I'm afraid they'll come directly for me, and no one under me can probably beat them."
Li Bao laughed bitterly, now even more afraid of those two female bodyguards.
He wasn't afraid of fighting men but was terrified that Ning Chengyuan might send those two foreign female bodyguards to kill him.
If that were the case, Li Bao might not survive.
If he hadn't been waiting for Ye Guichen here, Li Bao might have already found a place to hide.
Ye Guichen understood Li Bao's concern well. He smiled. "Black Panther, you're underestimating the opponent. It's low level to kill you. Killing you is easy, but re-integrating your properties would be a hassle instead. According to my observation, Ning Chengyuan has everything well-calculated. Since he can get you to sign the contract, he's naturally not afraid of you not handing over your properties."
Li Bao was puzzled. "Mr. Ye, Ning Chengyuan only has a few people. Yun City has probably over a thousand properties. Even if they can fight, how can they take over in a short time?"
"Hehe, what does it mean to capture the king?" Ye Guichen looked up into the distance. "If I'm not mistaken, he'll definitely target you first. He doesn't need to take over all your properties, just make you all scared. By then, you'll beg him to take over your properties."
Li Bao froze, not quite understanding. "Is he going to challenge us directly? Mr. Ye, I have hundreds of brothers, they're not to be trifled with."
"Hehe." Ye Guichen didn't answer.
At that moment, Li Bao's phone rang.
After a moment of hesitation, Li Bao picked it up, then his face changed dramatically. "What? Five bars? Someone broke through five of my bars?"
He looked up in shock at Ye Guichen.
"Mr. Ye, you were right!"
