"But... but the Second Protector was really killed by Xu Hao with a single strike, witnessed by everyone!"
Wu ngchong said anxiously, "Grandfather, what's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing."
Wu Kui, after all, was a man who had been through many trials and tribulations, and although he was shocked, he did not completely lose his composure. He suppressed the unstable qi caused by a mishap in his cultivation technique and said slowly, "Is Xu Hao so defiant of the heavens? Tell exactly how he killed the Second Protector."
Wu ngchong did not dare to delay, and quickly described the scene of Xu Hao's fight in detail, including Xu Hao's demands.
After listening, Wu Kui was speechless for a long ti.
Finally, he sighed and said, "This boy is indeed terrifying! At such a young age, he defied the heavens to advance to the Grandmaster realm and relied on ghost-like movent techniques to sneak up behind the Second Protector and kill him! Have I really grown old?"
However, he had no ti for sighs; the ten minutes were almost up, and he needed to make a choice, or else mbers of the Wu family would be killed by Xu Hao.
The bodyguards that Wu ngchong brought with him were all close to the strength of a Half step Grandmaster and were the core strength of the Wu family.
Ever since they lost a full eight Control Phase Protectors in one go, the overall strength of the Wu family had already suffered a significant blow.
Now, the Wu family couldn't afford any more losses!
Wu Kui pondered for a mont and said, "Ask Xu Hao what he wants, and our Wu family will do our best to satisfy him." * is the ho of this chapter
Wu ngchong hurriedly said, "Grandfather, are you not even a match for Xu Hao?"
"Having not seen his fight with my own eyes or battled against him myself, I'm not sure, but I have to admit, Xu Hao is indeed powerful. His talent is too great. Perhaps, it's ti to ask them for help."
Wu Kui knew Xu Hao was listening on the side, but he did not deliberately conceal this, as Xu Hao was no fool. How could he not guess that they would seek help to deal with him?
This was already a direct strategy.
When Wu ngchong heard Wu Kui's words, he was montarily stunned. Were they really going to ask for help?
But calling for help was easy, and sending it away was hard!
Still, Wu ngchong did not argue. Even his grandfather was not sure he could defeat Xu Hao, which ant relying on the strength of the Wu family might indeed not be enough to suppress Xu Hao.
He looked at Xu Hao and asked, "Xu Hao, my grandfather is asking what compensation you want?"
Xu Hao said indifferently, "Make it satisfactory to ."
When Wu Kui heard Xu Hao's reply, he felt both irritated and amused. Xu Hao had kicked the ball back to him.
It seed like no demand at all, but it was the biggest demand. Who knew how much compensation would satisfy him?
Suddenly, Xu Hao said, "Are you thinking that even if you give things, you will take them back later?"
"Correct!" Wu Kui said unabashedly. Everyone was a clear-headed person, there was no need for pretense.
Xu Hao laughed lightly and said, "Good! I like your straightforward attitude. Whether it's hiring soone to deal with or assassinating , use whatever tricks you want. I, Xu Hao, will take it all on myself!"
"Hmph! Xu Hao, you are quite arrogant, but I hope you truly have the strength to back up that arrogance. Otherwise, when the people I intend to invite arrive, they will not show you any rcy, especially since the power you rely on may be worth nothing in their eyes!" Wu Kui said coldly. Xu Hao's attitude annoyed him greatly, but he couldn't do anything to Xu Hao.
"Then go ahead and invite them. Regardless, right now you need to compensate , and whether or not your invitees can defeat is another matter entirely," Xu Hao said fearlessly.
Wu Kui said no more and after a brief mont of thought, he said, "Since you intend to expand the Xu Liu Group's influence, then I will satisfy you. I will give you another large business district. Both the North district three and four owned by our Wu family will be yours!"
Wu ngchong was shocked. Wu Kui was actually willing to give both North district three and four to Xu Hao. Those were two business districts with excellent traffic conditions and decent developnt!
Xu Hao nodded. It seed that Wu Kui had decided to avoid any conflict with him before those people arrived to eliminate him, otherwise he would not have directly ceded such vast business districts to him.
Besides, Wu Kui must have thought that Xu Hao's defeat was certain, and he would naturally be able to take back all compensation later.
But he was perhaps thinking too far ahead!
"Agreed." Xu Hao accepted the Wu family's compensation. The Wu family owned at least one-third of the market share in North district three and four. If they proactively disinvested from these areas, then he could move in directly, allowing the Xu Liu Group to establish an even deeper foothold in Huadu City!
Finally, Wu ngchong breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid Xu Hao wouldn't be satisfied and would attack him. His frail body certainly couldn't withstand even one of Xu Hao's strikes.
Wu Kui hung up the phone, began adjusting his qi, and contemplated whom to ask for help.
On the Cao family side, Xu Hao also made his way back ho.
Looking at the badly damaged Cao Family Courtyard, Cao Ren felt a surge of bitter sorrow well up inside him.
