Chapter 2090 — A Shift in Attitude
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"..." The ** had not expected the Hidden Han Family to be so hard-nosed. Leave if no one came within ten counts? How could he bear the responsibility for that? This Hidden World Family Summit was meant to be a trap for the Han Family—if the Han Family left, who would be trapped? So the ** hastily turned to look toward the guardhouse...
Though Zhao Qibing was inside the guardhouse, he kept a constant watch on the commotion outside. There was a voice transmitter in the guardhouse, and everything outside could be heard clearly within! Zhao Qibing had meant to leave them in the cold a while, then go out and dress them down—who would have thought these people would actually leave?
Seeing Wei Zhao's count reach the number "one," he said to Han Xiaohu: "Xiaopo, start the car. We're going home!"
"Wait!" Zhao Qibing could hold back no longer and ran out. "You wouldn't dare! At this Hidden World Family Summit, any invited hidden family that fails to appear forfeits its hidden family status and is demoted to an ordinary family, no longer under the protection of the member elder families of the Hidden World Family Arbitration Association!"
"Oh, ordinary family, then. Ordinary family it is. We don't need your protection—I'll have them join the ** Association I'm founding!" Wei Zhao pushed the car door open and stepped out, looking coldly at Zhao Qibing, and said mildly: "Zhao Qibing, I see your leg is itching again. Do you want it broken?"
"Huh?" Zhao Qibing had been about to fly into a rage at the Han Family's arrogance. Though the voice sounded somewhat familiar, he had not thought much of it—until Wei Zhao pushed the door open and got out. Only then did he give a violent shudder and stare at Wei Zhao in disbelief, unable to understand how Wei Zhao had suddenly appeared here!
But not knowing did not stop Zhao Qibing from fearing Wei Zhao. Zhao Guang'er, a late-stage Earth-rank expert, had been wiped out by Wei Zhao—what virtue or ability did Zhao Qibing have, and how could he be Wei Zhao's match?
"Lin... Wei Zhao, what are you doing here?" Zhao Qibing asked, trembling, his earlier arrogance quite gone.
"What I'm doing here doesn't matter. What matters is that your leg is about to break!" Wei Zhao sneered and walked toward Zhao Qibing. If this fellow could take part in a racing competition, he surely had some skill; Wei Zhao was not afraid of him, but he was afraid the man would play dirty. So if he broke his leg now, there would be nothing he could play at all. Even if the Hidden Zhao Family were formidable, it could not restore Zhao Qibing to full health in such a short time—because today's first competition was the race!
"Ah... Boss Wei Zhao... you and I may have had a little grudge before, but it's all been settled..." Hearing that Wei Zhao meant to break his leg, Zhao Qibing was frightened at once. He shot a look at the ** beside him, signaling him to go back and fetch help, while he pleaded: "The losses you had me compensate before, I compensated them all. You... you can't hit me!"
