Chapter 130: Clean This Place Up for Me
“On such a joyous day, let us start with a drink!”
“Hurry, call some waiters to bring the wine!”
“Who cares if this is a conference room? Let’s drink first and talk later!”
“To drink!”
The wealthy gathered, slightly exhilarated, raised their glasses. The troubles that had plagued them for some time finally seemed to have a glimmer of hope.
Now, they only awaited Cheng Long to personally eliminate Huang Tian, so they could rest easy.
Liang Zhanpeng felt a bit uneasy, but under the charged atmosphere of the conference room, he didn’t dwell on it too much.
Cheng Long was gracious and joined in with a drink.
Then Cheng Long asked, “Have all arrangements been made to find him? My professional league season has started; I can’t afford to linger here too long.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Cheng,” Liang Zhanpeng smiled. “We already have a detailed plan. Searching for him directly would take too much time.”
“But if we lure him out, it should be much faster.”
“Huang Tian has always been arrogant and conceited, very concerned with his pride.”
“There’s no need to hunt him down. We just release the news and challenge him publicly in your name.”
“Someone like Huang Tian, so proud of his face, how could he refuse? Even knowing we’ve set a near-impenetrable trap, that bastard would still dare to break through!”
“After all, Huang Tian was once the underground king of Hannan. If he doesn’t come and act now, he’ll lose all face and never be able to stir up trouble again.”
Liang Zhanpeng’s tone grew serious, clearly confident in their plan.
The wealthy men nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
“Boss Liang is right. I know Huang Tian well. He will definitely come!”
“Damn it! Let’s just bet on him!”
“Hahaha, with Mr. Cheng here, we will never lose.”
The earlier anxiety vanished, replaced by eager anticipation. The wealthy rubbed their hands together, faces alight with excitement.
This duel was not just a fight between Huang Tian and Cheng Long, but a battle between these Hannan magnates and Huang Tian.
If they won, Hannan would be entirely divided among them, leaving no room for others to interfere.
But if they lost, Hannan would be unrecognizable.
At the very least, if they wanted to save their lives, they would have to flee. Huang Tian was ruthless; these magnates knew surrender meant certain death.

“Mr. Cheng Long, we truly entrust this to you!”
“The fate of all Hannan rests on your performance.”
“Mr. Cheng, please!”
For a moment, everyone raised their glasses again.
Cheng Long, however, remained firmly seated, steady in his composure.
After a while, he slowly stood.
With an air of pride and solemnity, he lifted his glass, tilted his head back, and drained it in one gulp.
“Rest assured, everyone!”
“I, Cheng Long, have been undefeated across the globe. The title of King of Combat is no empty boast.”
“Don’t worry—Huang Tian is a worthless fool. I will kill him in no more than three moves!”
“I now await your news. Once I see him, I will finish him within a minute!”
“Bang—”
Just as Cheng Long finished his bold declaration, the conference room door was suddenly kicked open.
Everyone’s eyes darted to the door instantly.
A man dressed in black slowly stepped in, and at the sight of him, all present widened their eyes in shock.
The wealthy trembled, panic overtaking their faces, leaving them speechless.
Liang Zhanpeng and Shen Chong, closest to the door, instinctively retreated several meters without hesitation.
For some reason, the moment this man in black entered, the temperature seemed to plummet by several degrees, chilling everyone to the bone.
He said nothing, but everyone already knew who he was.
Huang Tian.
The man who had stirred turmoil throughout Hannan stood there, his presence overwhelming everything.
Silence fell like death. No one dared to speak or question him.
Several magnates even collapsed into their chairs, pale and teeth chattering.
Just moments ago, they had been confidently plotting Huang Tian’s defeat. Who would have thought he would suddenly appear here—and in such a manner?
Tonight, all Hannan’s wealthy had gathered at Pengzhan Restaurant. Did Huang Tian receive some tip-off? Or was there a traitor among them? That explained his sudden arrival.
Huang Tian... Could it be that he intended to wipe out all the magnates gathered here in one fell swoop?
---
If Huang Tian truly succeeded tonight, these Hannan magnates would be wiped out completely. Hannan would be unrecognizable, effectively renamed after him.
But these magnates were clearly mistaken.
The man in black glanced around coldly, then sneered, “Hey! Don’t be so scared. Do you even look like Hannan’s big shots?”
“Huang Tian is my master.”
“Tonight, my master specially sent me here to deliver a challenge to all of you!”
“In five days, at the foot of Tianliang Mountain in Huaizhou, my master will stand ready to face Hannan!”
“That’s right, the entire Hannan. If you have the guts, send your best warriors to face him!”
“This is the only day you have to cherish.”
“Also, if anyone here dares to involve the authorities, this will be your fate!”
“Boom—”
The man in black suddenly turned and slammed a palm into the conference room door.
In an instant, the thick door shattered into pieces.
Crash—
Fragments flew everywhere, some landing five meters away on the conference table. The magnates who had barely stood now collapsed into their chairs in terror.
Their faces turned as pale as paper; they never imagined the intruder would be so formidable.
He burst in by kicking the door open and then shattered it with a single palm—this series of acts was beyond their comprehension.
Li Tian and Liang Zhanpeng, Hannan’s top magnates, were equally stunned and speechless before the man in black.
The man sneered contemptuously, then turned to leave, as if his mission was complete.
“Stop!”
“Clear this place out!”
Suddenly, a voice rang out.
Cheng Long’s expression was dark, his impatience evident as he glared at the man in black.
His tone was arrogant, seemingly unfazed by the man’s earlier display, only annoyed that his rhythm was disrupted and the conference room thrown into chaos.
