Chapter 1087: Chapter 1087: Reinforcements Arrive Suddenly

At this critical life-or-death moment, Hong Laoliu made a firm decision. As long as he walked out of here today, he would definitely find a chance to take down these few people.

Thinking of this, he swung the iron rod at Tie Zhuzi.

"I’ll kill you," Hong Laoliu shouted.

Tie Zhuzi disdainfully snorted, then extended his foot and kicked Hong Laoliu in the chest, sending him flying.

With this kick, Tie Zhuzi didn’t use much force. Hong Laoliu merely fell and didn’t get hurt, then got up and charged at Tie Zhuzi again.

He could only fight desperately now; otherwise, the consequences would surely be more severe.

At this moment, Xiang Yu had already stepped forward. Xiao Xuan’s injury was mainly caused by Hong Laoliu, and Xiang Yu would definitely not let him go.

Seeing Xiang Yu approaching, Hong Laoliu attacked Tie Zhuzi even more fiercely.

Tie Zhuzi directly grabbed his iron rod and snatched it away, then lifted Hong Laoliu with both hands and tossed him into the pool with a loud splash, raising a big wave of water.

Hong Laoliu’s head went straight into the water, hitting the bottom of the pool. He took several gulps before climbing back up.

"You’re all doomed, doomed, I swear I’ll kill you all..." Hong Laoliu began to gradually lose his mind.

Ever since joining Hongmen, he had never suffered such humiliation. Now, he only had one thought in mind—how to kill the two men in front of him.

Just then, someone suddenly knocked on the door from outside. In theory, this bath was reserved for high-level members only, and was especially booked by Hong Laoliu’s group, so no service staff could possibly come here.

It couldn’t be any other guest either, as this place was exclusively tailored for them.

"Who is it?" Tie Zhuzi grumbled.

"It’s me, open the door." A very calm voice responded from outside, sounding like it belonged to someone familiar.

Xiang Yu ignored what was happening outside and jumped directly into the pool, grabbing Hong Laoliu and pulling him up.

Meanwhile, Tie Zhuzi opened the door, revealing over a dozen men outside. At the forefront was a man of medium build, with short hair, fair skin, and a scholarly look, appearing almost like a student.

"Hello." The man greeted Tie Zhuzi politely.

This scene left Tie Zhuzi stunned. What was this situation? Why would this scholarly-looking kid come here with more than ten men?

Those following behind showed no trace of scholarly air and looked quite fierce.

"Who are you people, and what are you doing here?" Tie Zhuzi asked, frowning.

"I’m here to find someone." The man said, smiling, then walked past Tie Zhuzi into the room.

"Vice Hall Master, save me, please save me!" Hong Laoliu suddenly cried out.

He had already been somewhat desperate, but hearing that polite "hello" made him realize that his Vice Hall Master, Wu Jinlong, had arrived.

Upon hearing the title "Vice Hall Master," Tie Zhuzi realized these people were Hong Laoliu’s men, and he took a few steps back, more cautious now.

Xiang Yu cast a cold glance at Wu Jinlong, then punched Hong Laoliu in the stomach.

Although Wu Jinlong appeared very courteous on the surface, from his eyes, Xiang Yu immediately discerned that this person was no pushover.

"My friend, didn’t he already mention earlier?" Wu Jinlong smiled, looking at Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu ignored him and slapped Hong Laoliu across the face, knocking out several of his teeth.

Hong Laoliu was terrified by Xiang Yu’s prowess, and before Xiang Yu, he had no ability to fight back.

Now, he only hoped Wu Jinlong would quickly get him out of this mess.

"What did he say?" Tie Zhuzi stood there, curiously asking.

Seeing Xiang Yu remain silent, Wu Jinlong furrowed his brow and continued, "He seemed to say earlier that he was from Hongmen."

Tie Zhuzi gave a thoughtful "Oh" without saying more.

Xiang Yu didn’t pay any attention to them and continued slapping relentlessly.

Hong Laoliu’s face was beaten into a swollen mess by Xiang Yu, yet Xiang Yu still didn’t show any intention of stopping.

"Vice Hall Master, save me," Hong Laoliu shouted in confusion. His Vice Hall Master was clearly standing there, so why hadn’t he intervened? Was he seeing things?

Hong Laoliu, disoriented by the beating, widened his eyes and looked carefully towards the door. Yes, it was indeed his Vice Hall Master.

Xiang Yu’s slaps didn’t cease. Once he had started, there was no reason to stop, even if the opponent’s Hall Master showed up.

Xiang Yu delivered no less than twenty slaps, leaving Hong Laoliu’s face a ruinous mess—it was estimated even his own wife wouldn’t recognize him.

After finishing, Xiang Yu kicked Hong Laoliu back into the water.

Exhausted, Hong Laoliu fell into the water, took a couple of gulps, before finally managing to stand up.

"Come out," Xiang Yu stated coldly, standing there.

Hong Laoliu shook his head; he dared not approach Xiang Yu now.

"You have ten seconds to come over here." Xiang Yu’s icy words, coupled with his hollow gaze, made one’s entire body tremble uncontrollably.

Hong Laoliu wanted to resist, but igniting Xiang Yu’s greater wrath would only invite harsher retribution.

He looked at Wu Jinlong standing over there, pleading bitterly, "Vice Hall Master, why?"

Now that Wu Jinlong was clearly standing there, and he was one of his subordinates, why wasn’t he doing anything to stop this? He couldn’t understand.

Wu Jinlong glanced at Xiang Yu with a bit of hostility but still didn’t make a move. Instead, he stepped to the poolside and said to Hong Laoliu, "Laoliu, do you know what I despise most?"

With a bitter face, Hong Laoliu shook his head. He didn’t understand why Wu Jinlong would suddenly ask him this.

"I despise being lied to the most. Think carefully if there’s anything you’ve lied to me about," Wu Jinlong said calmly, his face expressionless.

Only then did Hong Laoliu understand why Wu Jinlong hadn’t intervened. Apparently, his actions had been exposed.

Upon realizing this, Hong Laoliu was taken aback. He’d prefer being beaten by Xiang Yu than offending Wu Jinlong.

After all, Wu Jinlong was his direct superior, his pillar of support. With just one word from Wu Jinlong, he would be nothing.

"Vice Hall Master, I realize my mistake. It was wrong of me; I lied to you earlier..." Hong Laoliu knew he had to proactively admit his mistakes now.

If he lied at this moment, he would truly be beyond saving. He confessed to embezzling money and falsely claiming he was in the office.

In fact, some things Wu Jinlong didn’t know, but in an effort to show loyalty, Hong Laoliu confessed everything.

Seeing Hong Laoliu’s proactive attitude in admitting his mistake, Wu Jinlong nodded slightly. After all, Hong Laoliu had been with him for some time.

People are prone to greed; a little misstep can be understood. Just as Wu Jinlong was about to forgive Hong Laoliu, Xiang Yu suddenly said, "The ten seconds are up..."
