Chapter 1034: Chapter 1042: The Missing Person (Part 1)
"Brother Dominator,..." The woman tugged at Xiong Baâs sleeve, her face somewhat complicated.
If he agreed to it, her husband would become a traitor to the Xiong family and be branded as cowardly.
From now on, he would also be reduced to someone elseâs âlaborerâ.
One could say that Xiong Hai spoke with a gentle face, but his heart was truly too insidious and shameless.
Xiong Ba waved his hand; he certainly knew what his wife was worried about.
But in this situation, what else could be done?
"I can agree to all of this, but I want to see my TaoâEr and grandfather safe!" Xiong Ba didnât hesitate, glaring at Xiong Hai, "But if I find out that youâre playing any tricks, then even if itâs fish dead net broken, Iâll make you pay the price!"
Xiong Haiâs heart sank; if the two Peak Soldier Kings fought them to the death, there would likely be a heavy price to pay, even with the two from the Zhu family present.
"Bring my nephew Haitao over, let my second brother take a look!" He said to someone behind him, who immediately left the hall.
At the same time, he continued, "As for grandfather, thereâs no need to see him!"
"But rest assured, with his innate strength, we dare not do anything; just let him pass out for a few days."
Xiong Baâs expression changed a few times, but in the end, he didnât say anything more.
He knew that going to check on grandfatherâs safety now was probably not possible.
After all, if grandfather were awakened, he would have a chance to fight back; what could the two from the Zhu family be counted as?
Obviously, his older brother wouldnât let him succeed.
Besides, he believed that with grandfatherâs innate strength, these people wouldnât dare go too far, as an Innate Powerhouse, even in seclusion, has a great sense of danger.
So unless absolutely necessary, they wouldnât threaten grandfatherâs safety.
At most, as Xiong Hai said, they would temporarily knock grandfather out without murderous intent.
Almost ten minutes passed, and the person who went to bring Xiong Haitao returned, his steps somewhat frantic, and his face unnatural as he walked in.
He initially wanted to walk near Xiong Hai and speak quietly.
But he immediately felt Xiong Baâs piercing gaze, and his steps instinctively paused; Xiong Ba had already suspected something, so, feeling even more suspicious at this moment, he suddenly shouted angrily, "Whereâs my TaoâEr?"
"I....." The man trembled all over.
Being Patriarch for so many years, Xiong Ba had always been someone everyone found extremely strict, so whenever faced with him, everyone felt somewhat inferior and even some felt fearful internally.
Had it not been for Xiong Hai and Xiong Hu teaming up with the Zhu familyâs people, they probably wouldnât dare to betray him; after all, although Xiong Ba was a very strict patriarch, none could deny he was a good patriarch.
"Tell me, why didnât you bring Haitao in?" Xiong Hai furrowed his brows deeply, seeming to realize something was amiss.
But as he thought, it appeared unlikely.
Even if his foolish nephew, for some reason acquired intermediate special forces skills, didnât seem prominent to them.
Therefore, escaping seemed impossible.
Besides, who would break into their Xiong family?
Could it be his second brother already knew his son was imprisoned?
On one hand negotiating with them here, while secretly finding someone to rescue his son?
This possibility, if he hadnât seen the reactions of Xiong Ba and his wife just now, heâd likely have pondered.
But the angered expression just now couldnât be faked.
Besides, his second brother had always been straightforward, dealing with issues directly.
If he had any cunning, teaming up with his third brother to plot today likely wouldnât succeed more than 80%.
The man felt somewhat troubled; he couldnât say the place imprisoning the kid was checked and he was missing.
After all, the guard seemed to have been knocked unconscious on the ground, beaten by someone.
After being awakened, the guard was very confused too, saying he didnât know; he only knew he was suddenly knocked out.
This, this, this, how to explain?
If he said it, the scene would definitely break into a fight, understanding Xiong Ba, it would inevitably escalate.
Xiong Hai also realized something, trembling his face slightly, he opened his mouth seeming wanting to mend this, "Second brother, actually this....."
But before he finished, Xiong Ba roared, punching towards Xiong Hai.
His wife also moved in sync, grabbing towards the person who went out to bring back Xiong Haitao.
At that moment, neither of them held back at all.
In their view, likely their son had already met danger, or perhaps, had never been captured at all, though this seemed unlikely.
Everything just now appeared self-staged by this group.
"Bang!", "Crack!"
Xiong Hai barely raised his hands to block in front of his chest, but was still forced back continually by Xiong Baâs sudden punch, his face extremely grim, and couldnât help spurting a mouthful of blood.
The person beside him already had an arm twisted by Xiong Baâs wife.
As the couple was about to make another move, the two from the Zhu family finally reacted, immediately intervening to stop the Xiong Ba couple.
The other members of the Xiong family also reacted, slightly retreating, then following the two from the Zhu family, encircling the couple.
As for Xiong Hai and the other person now covered in cold sweat, they momentarily felt an encounter with death; now regardless of injuries, they retreated a few more steps.
Clearly, they were in no condition to fight.
"Bang Bang Bang!"
Suddenly the meeting hall was filled with the sound of punches colliding and some chairs and tables shattering, echoing through the entire hall, even outside it clearly audible.
Only, at this time, there wasnât a single person several hundred meters outside the hall.
Although Xiong Baâs strength was inferior to the male from the Zhu family, his moves were much more seasoned, so initially, he didnât fall into the disadvantage; concerning his wife against the other from the Zhu family, his wife was clearly on the losing side.
Coupled with Xiong Hu and a few other capable Xiong family members, as time passed, the couple gradually fell into disadvantage, having sustained many injuries.
If it continued like this, they were in danger.
However, the few from the Xiong family werenât faring too well either, having sustained many injuries themselves, but compared to the Xiong Ba couple, theirs were much lighter.
After all, the main force was in the two from the Zhu family.
Although the two from the Zhu family were stronger than the Xiong Ba couple, they werenât feeling great either, as the couple was practically insane, opting for a strategy of mutually enduring injuries.
Of course, they werenât foolish, wisely choosing to temporarily avoid confrontation.
Otherwise, even if they could kill the couple, they would still suffer severe injuries themselves.
"Wife, you go first!" Xiong Ba, desperately punching to retreat the male from the Zhu family, threw another punch towards the female Peak Soldier King, allowing his wife to catch a brief respite.
While his sacrifice was being punched in the abdomen by Xiong Hu.
"Iâm not leaving, Brother Dominator!" The woman choked back tears and said.
"If you donât leave, if TaoâEr is still here, what then? Who will take care of him? Who will tell him what happened at home?" Xiong Ba felt angry, the first time in his life raising his voice at his wife.
"Hmph, thinking of leaving?" The two from the Zhu family, who had been forced back, approached the couple again, "None of you will leave here!"
Xiong Ba directly shielded his wife against the two from the Zhu family, shouting again, "Still not leaving?"
Just as he shouted this, the closed doors of the meeting hall suddenly exploded open with a loud bang.
The wooden boards flying towards Xiong Hai and the other person at the back, knocking them around as they cried out, honestly feeling quite bewildered.
This unexpected turn of events halted everyone in the heat of the fight, with faces of surprise and suspicion turning toward the entrance.
