?128: Chapter 128: A Startlingly Huge Hole   128: Chapter 128: A Startlingly Huge Hole                                   Xiang Yu helped Shi Jian stand up and then delivered a kick to the man who was holding the branding iron.


    He picked up the branding iron from the ground and pressed it against the back of the man.


    Everyone only heard a sizzling sound fill the air, apanied by the smell of burnt feathers, and then came a scream like that of a ughtered pig, which sent chills down their spines.


    The screamingsted less than a second before the man fainted.


    “Useless,” muttered Xiang Yu as he threw the branding iron to the ground and then took a seat.


    Without looking at anyone else, he said to Shi Jian, “Go prepare for tonight’s operation.”


    After hearing this, Shi Jian nodded and then left.


    “You are having a meeting here, and you don’t even inform me?” Xiang Yu said calmly as he nced around.


    At that moment, Yan Bin clenched his fists, feeling unspeakably furious.


    He had initially been thrilled upon seeing Xiang Yu since it meant he no longer had to go through the trouble of finding him.


    But after Xiang Yu entered, he knocked out his own man without acknowledging anyone else, which infuriated Yan Bin, but there was nothing he could do, as it was his fault for targeting Shi Jian in the first ce, leading to this oue.


    “Xiang Yu, where have you been these past few days?


    Everyone couldn’t reach you, we thought something had happened to you,” Sheng Wantao was the first to speak up.


    “I went chasing girls.


    I heard the girls down south are charming, so I went to take a look, and indeed they were just as the rumors described,” replied Xiang Yu with a smile.


    Xiang Yu’s remarks left everyone speechless.


    On the very night they were to decide a life or death battle, he still had the mind to think about such trivial matters.


    They truly did not understand his recklessness.


    “Xiang Yu…” Yan Bin called out with a chilly smirk, “I can’t believe you actually dared toe back.


    Have you prepared for whates next?”


    “Don’t worry, Fifth Brother, everything’s prepared.


    Was that one of your brothers just now?


    That was too weak.


    He fainted in less than a second, yet Isted much longer.


    Look, there’s still a big hole in my back,” Xiang Yu finished and turned around, letting everyone see.


    Everyone saw a huge hole in Xiang Yu’s shirt, which was terrifying.


    They all understood the significance of him wearing this shirt today; he was here for revenge.


    “Only one hole?


    That’s nothing.


    Tonight, I want your body full of holes to see how many seconds you canst,” Yan Bin said coldly.


    “Then let’spareter and see who has more holes,” Xiang Yu said with a smile.


    Yan Bin just snorted coldly, knowing that Xiang Yu was skilled in talking nonsense.


    Since he was ranting about useless things, Yan Bin couldn’t be bothered to say more.


    Everything would be decided tonight.


    Ba Song was already in the country and would arrive in a few hours.


    Yan Bin knew his tactics, having seen his videos.


    This man was more than capable of dealing with Xiang Yu.


    Over these two weeks, Yan Bin had been restless, his heart uneasy until Xiang Yu was taken down.


    Each day was torture, making him visibly thinner.


    Now, finally, the day hade, and he was ready to vent.


    He intended to make everyone rted to Xiang Yu regret it.


    “I’ll be waiting for you tonight, don’t chicken out.


    Don’t worry, I’ve ced informants everywhere, so don’t even think about running away,” Yan Bin said as he stood up to adjust his clothes and then turned to leave.


    “Fifth Brother!” Xiang Yu called out to Yan Bin, “Dress up nicely tonight, and have a good meal.


    I won’t be seeing you off personally.”


    Yan Bin could hear the implications in Xiang Yu’s words and left with a cold snort.


    With Yan Bin gone, the tension in the room immediately eased, and some began sweating profusely.


    In their eyes, Xiang Yu was doomed tonight, and they were all thinking about how to foster a good rtionship with Yan Bin.


    The best way was to avoid disaster by paying up.


    Yan Bin had already hinted that starting from Xiang Yu, each leader should pay three million.


    As long as they handed this amount to Yan Bin, they should be safe.


    “Xiang Yu, I’m a bit short on cashtely; could you possibly…” Wu Haotian was always concerned about money.


    Seeing that Xiang Yu didn’t have much utility left, he wanted to make some money at thest moment.


    Xiang Yu had always been generous, and now more than ever, he should show some ss.


    After all, you can’t take it with you when you’re dead.


    “Exactly, times have been tough recently…” The others chimed in with the same thoughts as Wu Haotian.


    If they didn’t take the money now, it would all go to Yan Binter.


    “Money, I have plenty of that, but I have one condition,” Xiang Yu said, then looked around before continuing, “Tonight, you have toe and cheer me on.


    With you guys there, I’ll have more confidence.”


    After Xiang Yu spoke, everyone fell silent.


    They all knew about the events of the evening; no matter who won or lost, there would be a fierce battle.


    “Don’t worry, I’ve already instructed my men to transfer the money to your ounts, even if I die.


    But if you’re not there, then that’s a different matter.


    However, one thing’s for sure, Yan Bin won’t get a dime,” Xiang Yu said, then stood up and left without giving anyone else a second nce.


    He had made his point very clear, no need for further words.


    Those left behind were pondering whether to go or not.


    But the lure of money was significant; Xiang Yu had mentioned that he wouldn’t give Yan Bin a dime, meaning he had converted all his assets into cash.


    And he would distribute this cash to the bosses present; they didn’t know exactly how much money Xiang Yu had, only that he was wealthy.


    And Xiang Yu clearly didn’t care about money; it must be as such.


    They hade today to talk about the conflict between Xiang Yu and Yan Bin; now that neither was present, there was no need for them to stay, so they dispersed.


    When Xiang Yu returned to the vi, Shi Jian and the others were already sitting there, and Wu Jing had also returned.


    Upon seeing Xiang Yu, they hurriedly stood up.


    “Let me introduce two people to you,” Xiang Yu said, presenting the two teenagers behind him.


    Zhang Hongbo, seeing the grand vi, was quite excited.


    With no sense of strangeness or restraint, he cheerfully asked, “I like this house!


    Which room am I staying in?”


    Xiaoxuan, however, stood emotionlessly still, not moving; nobody knew what was going through his mind.


    “Zhuzi, show them the rooms.


    From now on, you two will live here,” Xiang Yu said with a smile.


    Tie Zhuzi nodded and then led the two to see the rooms.


    After being in contact with them for a week, he already knew their temperaments.


    Xiang Yu and the others then sat down, and he looked at Shi Jian, asking, “How’s the preparation going?”


    Shi Jian knew what Xiang Yu was referring to and nodded, “Everything is ready, only there are some unexpected situations…”
