Manhattan Island, Chrysler Building.
It was a rare sunny day in winter, with golden sunlight shining generously on the ancient building of Gu's family. The black dragon's eyes at the top of the building sparkled in the sun as it gazed down at all the people coming and going.
Inside the Kusakabe Building, however, dark clouds were gathering and the atmosphere was tense to the extreme.
Every floor's corridor was packed with men in black suits, ninjas in tight clothing and figures draped in grey robes. Everyone had a tense expression, and employees of the Kugo Group's various departments tiptoed around them, not daring to utter an extra word.
In the conference room on the top floor of the building, a light screen poured down from the roof, and Gu Xiechen's appearance in Zurich flickered in the light screen.
Gu Zhe sat in the middle of the conference room on a large, dark jade chair, with dozens of high-ranking members of the Gu Group sitting quietly on either side of the conference table in front of him. The atmosphere inside the conference room was even more solemn than that outside, and everyone's eyes were narrowed as they stared at the light screen displaying Gu Xiechen.
The thin and frail old man with three eyes coughed lightly, saying in a low voice to Gu Juechen: "Master of the Gu family."
Gu Juezhen looked at the old man and nodded, "Wu Changlao." Wu Changlao squeezed out a smile and was about to speak when Gu Juezhen slammed his palm heavily on the conference table: "I gave you three days, but you let that little scum escape from Zurich; now it's been a month and you can't even find where he is. Were you raised eating feces?"
Wu Lao's face turned pale, and Di Zang Temple, who was standing behind him, looked uncomfortable.
He let out a sigh, and Gu Zhe dusted off the table, scolding the high-level executives of the Gu Corporation until they were covered in dog blood. Not one word was used to insult Wu Lao, but Wu Lao's face turned greener and greener, gradually turning black. Gu Zhe Dust reprimanded the high-level executives of the Gu Corporation for their incompetence, every word hitting Wu Lao's heart - he and his men had also participated in the pursuit of Gu Xuan dust, with no results to show for it.
Taking advantage of Gu Zhe's pause to catch his breath, a middle-aged man with a majestic and powerful build stood up and said in a deep voice: "Father, we can consider hiring a mercenary group."
"I'm fed up with you!" Gu Juechen grabbed the teacup in front of him and smashed it heavily on the middle-aged man's face, knocking him flying out. The blue porcelain teacup shattered into powder on his face. The middle-aged man who was beaten didn't dare to make a sound and ran back to his original seat, while several members of the Gu family next to him showed a smile of schadenfreude at the same time.
"Are you out of your minds? Using mercenaries? Damn it, are you afraid that our Gu family won't lose face? If this gets out, people will think I, Gu Juechen, murdered my own brother to monopolize the family assets. Will I still have a face in the Federation's business world?"
The door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open and a man rushed in with a look of panic.
The master's face turned cold again, and he was about to order the man to be dragged out and beaten to death. The man cried out in a panic: "Master, Master, look quickly at the outside of the mansion, something has happened."
"Hmm?" Gu Juechen and Wu Lao exchanged a glance. The light screen in the conference room flickered, and the surveillance images outside the Gu Building were displayed on the screen without any blind spots.
"What's going on here?" Gu Juechen and Wu Lao stared at the image on the light screen in a daze.
A large team of beautiful girls in bikinis, cheering and jumping in a neat formation, marched towards the Gusong Building. They sang happily, their voices melodious and pleasant to hear. At first glance, there were at least 20,000 to 30,000 of these beautiful girls in bikinis, rushing towards the Gusong Building like a flood, pouring into the building.
The security guards inside the building, the family warriors trained by Gu Jia, the disciples of Wu Changlao wearing gray robes, and the ninjas controlled by Dizang Temple, no one can stop the advance of this team.
Two or three thousand beautiful girls, wearing bikinis and almost naked, rubbed against him with passion, making even the greatest hero become a softie. These girls had no martial arts skills or special abilities, not even a needle could be hidden on their bodies, they rushed into the ancient building like a flood, easily occupying the first floor, second floor, third floor... and advancing towards the top floor with unshakeable determination.
Gu Juechen and Wu Lao's chin almost dislocated, Gu Juechen looked at Wu Lao with a strange gaze, Wu Lao also looked at him with a strange gaze and asked in a low voice: "You, Gu Group, do employee welfare?"
"Fart!" Gu Jue was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He pointed at the image on the screen and roared: "Is this how employee benefits are distributed? I give each employee five or six beautiful women?"
He slammed his fist on the conference table, and Gu Zhe finally gave what might be the most humiliating order of his life: "Damn it, call the police! Call the police! New York's security, *******!"
The middle-aged man who had just been beaten up said cautiously: "Father, why don't we order these women to be driven out?"
"Throw them out? Tomorrow, our Gu family group will become a laughing stock for the Federation! Mobilizing family warriors to beat up a group of inexplicable women? My god!" Gu Juechen felt his head had grown three sizes bigger, how could such strange things happen?
The high-level executives of Gu's group looked at each other with a mixture of laughter and tears, looking at the current scene, Gu's group will soon be on the headlines of the newspaper.
Just as all hope seemed lost, all the girls vanished simultaneously. Their bodies disintegrated in mid-air, and a faint silver glow emanated from where they had disappeared, shooting out through the ceiling of each floor of the high-rise building. The glows wafted up through the layers of floors, finally merging into a silver-haired man who had appeared at some point outside the conference room door.
Wu Lao's pupils shrank into a point, and he said in a low voice: "Jie Shi? Who are you?"
Yin Ruoxi slowly walked into the conference room, and bowed slightly to Gu Juechen, who was twitching at the corner of his mouth: "The defensive power of the Gu Group is too strong, I can only use this small trick to get in, hoping not to cause too much trouble for the host of the Gu family." Straightening up, Yin Ruoxi smiled lightly and said: "Let me introduce myself, Saiyin, 'Sea Witch' Saiyin, officially registered with the Earth Federation Special Management Committee 15 days ago."
"New Boundary Warrior? No wonder, your abilities are quite interesting... and terrifying."
Sai Ren smiled with a smirk: "Yes, the federal power is in the hands of men, and all men are controlled by women. My ability can control many beautiful and lovely girls, so I can grasp more than many people imagine."
Wu Lao looked at Sai Ren with a cold gaze: "You're that new Jie Shi who just popped up? Heh heh, I heard about it earlier too. Some old zombie wants to settle accounts with you."
Sai Ren shrugged and chuckled: "Isn't the first master of Jiuyou Dao under Emperor Shi's command? This little misunderstanding is easy to resolve."
The old man's brow was shrouded in a faint, swirling mist of blood that grew thicker and more intense. A bewitching aura slowly emanated from his flesh, entrancing all who beheld it. The old man's gaze was fixed intently on Sai Zhen, his eyes glinting with an unknown thought. Sai Zhen's heart sank slightly as he nodded and smiled at the old man: "I also hold the Three Witch Sect in high esteem. We should be friends, not enemies." His gaze locked onto the old man's brow, where a cold light flickered in his beautiful silver eyes.
Wu Lao thought for a moment, squeezed out a faint smile and nodded slowly.
"So, Mr. Sai, you're not intentionally joking with us this time at the Gu Group, are you?"
He pulled out a document from the large pocket of his robe and smiled, "No, no joke, just some things that require the help of the Gu family. This is what our Holy Unicorn Mercenary Corps wants to purchase from the Gu Group, some military equipment and weapons. As the newly appointed First Deputy Commander of the Holy Unicorn, I can only run this errand personally."
"The Holy Unicorn is a major client, you don't need to resort to such means to get in the door." Gu Zhechen furrowed his brow.
With a light flick of his wrist, the twenty-page document seemed to be supported by an invisible pair of hands and slid steadily in front of Gu Zecheng. Sai Jin smiled and said, "It's just a small demonstration of my personal strength, let the master of the Gu family have some confidence in me. Hmm, take a look at our requirements first."
Gǔ Jué Chén silently picked up the document and quietly flipped through it. Sài Zǐn stood at the door of the conference room, smiling as he surveyed the layout inside. After a while, he walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and gazed out at the sea view through the thick bulletproof glass. About ten minutes later, Sài Zǐn estimated that Gǔ Jué Chén had finished reading the document, and he let out a faint sigh: "The scenery here is great, it's just too convenient for some people to jump from the top floor and escape into the sea."
Wu Lao's dark, emaciated face flushed slightly red, and he looked at Sai Zi with extreme anger.
Gu Zhe's face was as calm as a well, he coldly dropped the documents in his hand. "Mr. Sai, the requirements of the Sacred Unicorn are too outrageous. The transport aircraft and small escort carriers you have purchased barely meet the regulatory limits of the Federal Ministry of Defense in terms of specifications, but the armor, anti-radar coating, fire control system, energy system, and engines of the spacecraft, as well as other facilities, are all military products! And they are A+ class products that are strictly controlled in military products, this is an illegal transaction.
Sai Ren shrugged his shoulders and said calmly, "What else?"
His right hand with ten fingers kept tapping on the document, and he sneered: "There are also various small armored vehicles, mine exploration vehicles, single soldier combat suits, single soldier high-energy weapons, many of which exceed the civilian product category, this is also an illegal transaction." After a pause, Gu Zhechen added: "Of course, I'm not saying that our Gu Group can't provide these goods to the Holy Unicorn, but you're asking for too much!"
Gu Zhebang slammed his palm on the conference table and shouted, "The quantity you want is enough to arm two Class A reinforced federations! And the price you offer is even 30% lower than our cost. We can't make this deal!"
With a wave of his hand, the documents on the desk shot towards Saren's neck with a piercing whistling sound.
