926 To Deal With Xu Que! (1/2)
Bam!
The head of the Xia Family slammed his hand on the table, his face filled with fury, ”Hmph! Foolish! Do you think that he lacks money? He even dared to take people from the Rothschild's hostage! Do you think that he'd bat an eye for your money?”
Tears immediately fell from Xia Louqing's eyes. He wailed, ”Grandpa, I was wrong! It's my fault for not keeping my underlings in line. However, I truly don't want to die!”
”Shut up! Just look at yourself crying. What a disgrace!” A glaring Old Man Xia bellowed.
One middle-aged man from the Xia family quickly stepped up, ”Old Master, don't get so angry. Please take care of your health!”
”That's right! No matter how powerful Xu Que is, could he be more powerful than the entire country?”
”M Nation was just caught off guard! If they had been prepared, they could have finished him off with a missile!”
”The Xia Family is large and mighty. While we might not be at the level of the Rothschild conglomerate, we are not easily pushed around!”
Members of the Xia Family began to talk over one another.
”That's enough!” Old Man Xia yelled again and his face blackened. Everybody shut their mouths at once. At that moment, they still believed that it was not a huge issue. They were extremely confident in the strength of the Xia family. They thought that Xu Que had captured Levan due to an insufficiency of guarding preparations. If they heightened their security in the Xia family and prepared themselves well, there was no way that Xu Que could touch them.
They believed that there was no such thing as an Immortal. Xu Que had come back to life after six years and brought back a woman from the moon. Like the masters who mastered a unique martial art unrivaled by any other, Xu Que had Spiritual Qi that could gather flames and carry him in the air. However, despite admitting that his powers were quite unfathomable, they were convinced that he would stand no chance against modern high-tech weapons. As strong as he may be, could he withstand a cannonball or a nuclear bomb? Impossible! Everyone, including Old Man Xia, believed that. While he was wary of Xu Que, he did not think that Xu Que was undefeatable!
He pondered for a moment and finally spoke, ”I will settle this personally. Although Xu Que is powerful, he is still a citizen of Huaxia. I don't believe that he would turn down that person! Though there is no escaping visiting him personally to extend our apologies. You rascal won't be going anywhere for this period! Stay at home and think about how you're going to apologize later!”
”Understood!” Xia Luoqing answered instantly; the massive rock on his heart was finally gone.
The rest of the Xia family silently nodded in agreement. If the Old Master is willing to ask that prominent figure to speak for them, this matter would certainly be solved!
”Old Master!” Suddenly, a middle-aged man hurried over with a phone in his hands. He said with an immensely severe expression, ”There's a call that you must take.”
The Old Master frowned and nodded, ”Bring it over.”
The middle-aged man passed the phone and muttered under his breath, ”It's from the Rothschild conglomerate!”
”Rothschild? Wasn't he held hostage by Xu Que?” asked a surprised Old Master.
The middle-aged man shook his head, ”It's the vice leader of Rothschild, Mr. Mord.”
...
At the same time, in a villa in New City, in the M Nation, Xu Que had uninstalled all cameras. Mike and Co. were all standing outside the villa in wait. In the villa, Xu Que snuggled himself into the sofa lazily as he scanned an unsettled Levan with a side eye. He smiled mildly. ”Mr. Levan, I'm sure that you have some B-Number about what you should do, no?”
B-Number?
