Looking at the raging fire, Pan Xiaoning really wanted to tear Wang Zheng apart with a thousand knives. The significance of this building to the Black Hand Gang couldn't be described merely in terms of tens of millions.

This was their foundation! Not just an industry!

However, after decades of effort and painstaking management, the main building of Tian Lun Entertainment City became a massive charred edifice from this day forward.

Af ter the fire was extinguished, everything would be gone. Even due to the continuous burning of the large fire, the main structure of the building had suffered irreversible damage. Even if the fire was put out, the building had become a dangerous one and couldn't be used again. For the Black Hand Gang to rebuild Tian Lun's glory from scratch, even though there weren't many floors, all losses added together could not be measured in specific figures.

"Damn it, how ruthless!" The firelight reddened Pan Xiaoning's twisted face; his temples bulged with veins, and his entire face turned red as he seethed. Now, he truly despised Wang Zheng to the bone!

The fire engine ladder was already set up, and several water hoses were spraying water towards the burning building. However, this amount of water was like a drop in the bucket compared to the entire fire scene. Due to the extremely high temperature above the raging fire, before the water could even land on it, it had already turned into steam!

Never did Pan Xiaoning expect Wang Zheng to be so bold, not fearing social panic, disregarding Chinese law, openly setting fires in broad daylight! By doing this, even if he burned down Tian Lun, he would also have a criminal record!

Pan Xiaoning finally understood that the other side didn't want to use public opinion to attack the Black Hand Gang or force the Fuzhou government to eliminate black forces under the pressure of central leaders. Such tactics were beneath him.

If you want to harm me, if you want to eliminate me, then I will retaliate! If you want to hit my face, then I'll stab you back! If you want to take my life, then I will burn your business down! An eye for an eye, only seeking immediate results!

As for the arson case, Wang Zheng simply didn't care. First, let your Black Hand Society make a spectacle of itself in front of the entire nation, and then give you a severe beating to ruin your reputation among peers, making you a laughingstock of the criminal underworld!

The prestigious number one crime syndicate in Fuzhou, the Black Hand Society, was actually burned down by someone! And it only took three people to do it! This is simply preposterous!

The opponent is clearly insane, a complete madman who can't be measured with normal standards.

In Pan Xiaoning's and even Pan Lianming's eyes, Wang Zheng would definitely not choose to engage in large-scale conflict within Fuzhou despite knowing he was in danger. After all, this place belongs to the territories of both the Black Hand Society and the General Manor, with their combined influence covering the entire city.

If one were a normal person, after offending the Black Hand Society, they would surely immediately flee as far away from Fuzhou as possible. In Pan Lianming's previous perception, Wang Zheng was clearly such a person.

Therefore, when Wang Zheng retaliated by smashing the Black Hand Society's venue and dared to openly challenge them next by burning down the main building of Heavenly Harmony Entertainment City, Pan Lianming truly didn't expect it!

Pan Lianming originally planned to ambush Wang Zheng once he left Fuzhou with Zhang Yanhang's assistance, catching him off guard and reclaiming his lost face and turf tenfold.

But unexpectedly, before Wang Zheng could leave the city, Pan Lianming's own business was burned down completely!

The Heavenly Harmony Entertainment City used to be bustling; now it is even more so!

Sitting in the back seat of a Mercedes-Benz, Pan Lianming's expression turned grim. "Revenge must be sought, and justice must be served with equal measure—this is why you can never become a warlord. However, such people are also the most difficult to deal with."

Next, Pan Lianming seemed to recall something and suddenly looked enlightened as he said a confusing sentence to the driver: "I overestimated you but also underestimated you."

"Even I was taken in. It's been a long time since I've encountered such an interesting situation on Fuzhou soil," said Pan Lianming, his gloomy expression briefly flickering.

Originally, Wang Zheng used the secretly recorded video to blackmail Zhang Yanhang into guaranteeing his safety, which already perfectly demonstrated that Wang Zheng had shown weakness; he was afraid of retaliation from the Black Hand Society and therefore needed the General Manor's protection.

In conversations with Zhang Yanhang, Pan Lianming—the shrewd one—also noticed this point. Therefore, in his heart, he felt quite satisfied: Wang Zheng fearing the Black Hand Society meant good news to him; thus, he was prepared to give a fatal blow after they left Fuzhou.

However, what Pan Lianming did not expect was that all of this was just a smokescreen created by Wang Zheng. He didn't need protection from the General Manor or Zhang Yanhang at all; he wasn’t afraid of the Black Hand Society!

This was Wang Zheng's trap.

It was precisely because of this that, under the Black Hand Society's overconfidence, Wang Zheng managed to ignite a blaze and push the Black Hand Society from underground into public view across the nation!

At this moment, Pan Lianming realized he had been duped by the false image Wang Zheng had crafted since the beginning.

Wang Zheng never feared the Black Hand Society from the start; his intention was to fight them to the death!

"Young Master, the fire has been extinguished. Shall we go back"

The flames at the Tianlun main building have been completely extinguished, and its former grand appearance has entirely transformed into a blackened mess with lingering smoke that irritates the nostrils. It seems impossible to salvage anything from inside now.

The once vibrant Tianlun Entertainment City is now in ruins, filled with choking fumes.

"Young Master Young Master" A subordinate beside Pan Xiaoning is still trying to persuade him. For the Black Hand Society, this is the gravest blow their organization has ever faced since its founding.

Smoke and soot had blackened Pan Xiaoning's face, with hatred flickering in his eyes.

"I want revenge. Do they really think the Black Hand Society is some soft target" Pan Xiaoning said resentfully.

At this moment, the mobile phone in Pan Xiaoning’s pocket rang. Seeing the number, it was Zhang Bowen calling.

"Xiaoning, Xiaoning, I heard your Tianlun caught fire Who did it What's the current situation" Zhang Bowen asked anxiously.

"It's not just a fire, everything is burnt to ashes," Pan Xiaoning said coldly: "All thanks to you, Young Master Zhang."

"What’s going on How am I responsible" Zhang Bowen sensed the sarcasm in Pan Xiaoning's tone and replied irritably.

"Hmph, if not for helping you kill Wang Zheng, would the Black Hand Society have encountered today's calamity" Now, Pan Xiaoning had transferred his anger to Zhang Bowen: "Bowen, Bowen, I always regarded you as a brother; yet you've harmed me like this!"so wanted to establish his authority. He hoped the Blue Sea Group would see that people from the Abu Group weren’t to be trifled with.However, Glas hadn't expected the beautiful CEO of the Blue Sea Gr...
