Duan Qirui sent the people away and returned to the room.

Regarding these local gangsters from Huacheng who sided with him, Duan Qirui didn't dare to fully trust them because he had already witnessed Li Feng's arrogance in Huacheng.

If someone without much background dared to be this arrogant, he must have something to rely on. He could despise Li Feng, but he wouldn't underestimate the power of money.

Because he was also deeply immersed in the thrill brought by the power of money.

Though money isn't omnipotent, it can certainly do whatever it wants.

Duan Qirui went to the bathroom, turned on the faucet, then took out his phone and dialed a number, reporting his affairs in Huacheng and subsequently stated his plans.

After fifteen minutes.

Only then did Duan Qirui hang up the phone, walked out of the bathroom with a cold smile on his face.

"Li Feng, the showdown has begun. I hope you don't let me down too much; there aren't many that I take seriously enough to deal with."

Duan Qirui walked to the living room, picked up a bottle of wine from the rack, poured a glass, and went to the floor-to-ceiling window to look outside.

"Feng Shao."

In the presidential suite, an old man who was previously in Duan Qirui's room stood in front of Li Feng.

"Mr. Wu, you said you have an urgent matter to discuss with Feng Shao. Just say it, no need to beat around the bush."

"I have time to wait for you, but your company might not."

"Yes, Mr. Qian."

"Feng Shao, I'm loyal to Han while being in Cao Camp. I went over there to scout their cards, not genuinely wanting to join them."

Wang Qian lifted his eyes to look at the rambling middle-aged man, who started to sweat upon seeing Wang Qian's gaze, and said: "Feng Shao, earlier in Duan Qirui's room, they were discussing how to target you."

"And the result of the discussion was that they plan to target the four major banks under your control, aiming to sever your influence over Huacheng from top to bottom, then deal with you personally."

Li Feng responded with an "Oh."

Wang Qian looked at him: "Hah, they plan to deal with our four major banks, quite ambitious. Did they say how they plan to act?"

The middle-aged man looked at Wang Qian: "That they didn't say. They only expressed this idea before letting us leave, mentioned they would contact us when needed."

"Feng Shao, they intend to target the four major banks, but aiming for the seven-inch of a snake is something that cannot be ignored."

"I got it."

"If there's nothing more to say, you can be dismissed."

Li Feng said.

"Feng Shao, I stand with you, could you let my company off the hook? I, Wu Qiang, have always been your follower."

"Why so much nonsense? Rest assured, if you're truly on Feng Shao's side, Feng Shao has never wronged his friends."

Wang Qian directly saw him out the door, then turned back to the living room: "Feng Shao, this Duan Qirui really has an eye on our banks."

"His words can't be entirely trusted, yet can't be entirely dismissed, just a fence-sitter."

"Indeed, this guy even wants to bet both sides, thinking others are fools; Duan Qirui probably noticed this too, which is why he didn't reveal the details."

"But Feng Shao, now that we know what they intend to do, shouldn't we prepare some surprises for them too?"

"Go ahead and arrange it."

Li Feng waved casually, showing indifference, Wang Qian nodded and turned to leave.

Is the bank his weakness?

Li Feng chuckled softly.

In Huacheng, the four major banks are Rongxing, Rongsheng, Wanhe, and Wanlong; this is no secret, many people know.

But outsiders are unaware that, among these four major banks, except for Rongxing, the other three are just shells, not because they don't exist, but they no longer operate within the banking domain.

Wang Qian, as Li Feng's lackey and chief steward, seems to interfere in Huacheng from top to bottom, even lending a lot of funds to each family's group companies; however, the Wanhe Hao doesn't exist.

It's just an empty shell.

Similarly, Wanlong and Rongsheng are also like this; both have become angel investment banks, one responsible for investments in Yan Country, and the other for overseas investments.

You could say they are outside worldly matters and not within the Five Elements.

You wish to hit them, but you need to find their entities first—which is obviously impossible because they have long undergone complex cross-holding, even involving some offshore companies abroad, the state might not even clear them.

The only one in Huacheng is Rongxing.

But this Rongxing under Li Feng is also dispensable, among the four kings, Wang Qian is Li Feng's confidant, while Wang Sheng and Wang Long are Li Feng's Dragon Guards; only, their combat power is lacking, so they embarked on the business path.

The only one, Wang Xing, was recruited by Li Feng; he has strength and ambition, Li Feng allows him more freedom.

Likewise, this Wang Xing is a flag and target erected by Li Feng.

If he is wholeheartedly loyal, Li Feng wouldn't mind arranging a good end; but if he has any other ideas or plans to retaliate.

Li Feng wouldn't be merciful.

Duan Qirui wants to find Li Feng's weakness to target, but unfortunately, the banks have never been Li Feng's weakness; just a casual masterpiece by Li Feng.

Holding a wine glass, Li Feng also came to the floor-to-ceiling window.

A great man once said.

Fighting with heaven is endless fun.

Fighting with the earth is endless fun.

Fighting with people is endless joy.

And this Longevity Sect, or Lin Changsheng, indeed makes Li Feng have some interest in fighting a bit.

This Jingmen Xu Family.

Is it really just a puppet hung out there? How many trump cards does Lin Changsheng have? What's the purpose behind the Xu Family's Dark Hall owner?

Things are indeed getting more interesting.

Huacheng.

One of the Thirteen Grand Protectors, Leng Feng, who had previously fled under Li Feng, emerged from the subway station, followed by several burly men.

They directly exited the subway station, and unknowingly, people behind Leng Feng gathered increasingly, despite varied attire, dozens of fierce-looking burly men drew attention.

People among them instinctively stepped aside, looking at these distinct pedestrians.

Huacheng subway station entrance.

"Thirteen Shao."

Outside, a long line of black cars formed a dragon; a greeter stepped forward respectfully calling out.

Afterward, the person opened the rear door of one of the cars.

Leng Feng lowered himself and directly sat in the car while those burly men boarded others.

Moments later, the line of cars directly left Huacheng subway station.

"Where's my brother?"

"Mr. Duan is at the Outer Heaven hotel, Li Feng forbids Mr. Duan from leaving."

"He dares to detain my brother?"

Leng Shao looked at the person in the passenger seat.

"Ahem, Thirteen Shao, Mr. Duan is just temporarily staying at Outer Heaven. Mr. Duan says all matters outside should be entrusted to Thirteen Shao, whether he leaves the hotel matters little."

"Oh, did my brother have any other message for you to convey?"
