At that critical moment, the heavy wooden door of the conference room burst open with a deafening crash, splintering into pieces! A fully armed SWAT team surged in like a pack of tigers descending from the mountain, their dark gun barrels aimed squarely at everyone present, freezing the air instantly.
"Everyone, don’t move! Raise your hands!" The SWAT Captain's voice boomed like thunder, causing ears to ring.
Park Bucheng's lips curled into a barely perceptible cold smile. The first step of his plan had succeeded; these fools really dared to make a move here, practically walking into a trap. He feigned panic and raised his hands, but his eyes locked with the SWAT Captain’s in a fleeting moment, conveying a signal that only they could understand.
Li Zhenghao's face turned ashen. He never expected Park Bucheng to be one step ahead and set such a trap. Yet, being an old hand at this game, he quickly regained his composure and revealed a sinister grin. "Do you really think you can catch me like this? You’re too naive!"
Before he could finish speaking, the tempered glass windows of the conference room suddenly shattered with a deafening bang! Dozens of black-clad figures burst through the windows like shadows, their gleaming weapons reflecting a chilling light under the fluorescent bulbs. At the same time, hurried footsteps echoed from the corridor outside, booming like thunder.
"Damn it, that old fox really had a backup plan!" Park Bucheng cursed under his breath as his heart sank. While he anticipated that Li Zhenghao wouldn’t surrender easily, he didn’t expect such thorough preparations for an inside-outside assault!
The SWAT team reacted swiftly, engaging in fierce gunfire with the intruding black-clad figures. Bullets whizzed through the conference room, shards of glass flying like hailstones as the entire space transformed into a battlefield filled with smoke. The sounds of screams, gunfire, and shattering glass intertwined to create a chaotic yet deadly symphony.
"Brothers, stick to the plan! Leave no one behind!" Park Bucheng commanded firmly amidst the gunfire. His loyal team quickly dispersed like leopards on the hunt, skillfully maneuvering through the chaos and coordinating with the trained SWAT members to form a tight encirclement around the black-clad assailants.
With a swift motion, Park Bucheng sprang forward, his figure flickering like a ghost as he executed the Graceful Wave Steps. He navigated through the hail of bullets with ease. Each appearance was accompanied by an enemy's scream. One black-clad man swung a sharp machete at him; Park Bucheng sidestepped gracefully to evade the attack and unleashed a rapid strike with the Tianshan Six Yang Palm. The scorching palm wind roared forth like a fire dragon. The man flew backward like a kite with its string cut, crashing heavily against the wall with a dull thud before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
After three muffled gunshots rang out, three more black-clad figures fell to the ground in response. Park Bucheng's movements were fluid and graceful, as if he were performing an elegant yet lethal dance of death. Each strike was infused with profound internal energy and an intense heat that left enemies no chance to evade.
Li Zhenghao watched in disbelief as shock flickered in his eyes. He could hardly comprehend how formidable Park Bucheng had become; it was utterly astonishing. For a moment, he found himself at a loss for what to do. But he quickly snapped back to reality, drawing a sharp dagger from his waist and roaring as he charged straight at Park Bucheng.
"Kid, let me show you what real martial arts are!" Li Zhenghao roared, his blade flashing like snow, each strike aimed to kill, carrying a fierce killing intent.
Park Bucheng, however, remained calm and collected, executing the Graceful Wave Steps with increasing agility. He weaved through the flurry of blades like a slippery loach, causing Li Zhenghao's attacks to miss time and again.
"Is this all you've got? Do you really think you can show off in front of me?" Park Bucheng smirked with a hint of mockery in his voice, filled with disdain.
These words completely enraged Li Zhenghao. His assault grew fiercer, the blade raining down like a torrential storm, yet he still couldn't touch Park Bucheng even slightly. Instead, he found himself gasping for breath as he exerted too much force, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
"I told you, you're still too green to play dirty," Park Bucheng suddenly halted, raising his hands slowly into a peculiar stance. A powerful internal force surged within him, and the air around seemed to radiate a scorching heat, as if it were about to ignite.
"Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms!"
With a deafening shout, Park Bucheng unleashed his palm strike like an overwhelming tide crashing towards Li Zhenghao. This strike gathered all his strength and was incredibly powerful, carrying an unstoppable momentum. Although Li Zhenghao raised his blade in time to block it, he was still sent flying by the sheer force, crashing heavily to the ground and spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face turning as pale as paper.
The battle ended swiftly. With the seamless cooperation of the SWAT team and Park Bucheng's squad, all the black-clad men were quickly subdued. Li Zhenghao and his subordinates were handcuffed and escorted to the police car. The sound of police sirens pierced the night sky and gradually faded away.
Park Bucheng began to carefully search the scene for any valuable clues. As he rummaged through Li Zhenghao's abandoned briefcase, a sealed document caught his attention. He cautiously opened it, and as he read further, his brow furrowed deeper and his expression grew increasingly grave.
"This is..." Park Bucheng's pupils constricted sharply as a storm of emotions surged within him.
The document clearly detailed a secret agreement between the Chaebol and a mysterious force; they planned to support an emerging gangster with the intention of weakening the Tai Chi Gang through internal strife. And the mastermind behind this plan was...
Just then, his phone suddenly vibrated. A strange number flashed on the screen, and that number made his heart race…
