Chapter 1277 - 1276: Taking Action Tonight

Now, the situation for Max and his group could be described as extremely precarious. If they stayed where they were or retreated, the Controller would eliminate them without hesitation. So, they had no choice but to push forward!

To them, the only slim chance of survival was to decisively strike at Lu Yu.

However, given their capabilities, confronting Lu Yu head-on was exceptionally challenging.

After all, Lu Yu's power was overwhelmingly strong, a force they simply couldn't match directly!

Under these circumstances, Max and his group targeted Leng Qingqiu in advance, planning to use her as bait to strike at Lu Yu!

Max and his group were like desperate gamblers, ready to stake everything they had on one last bet.

Winning would mean great rewards and increased strength, but losing would lead to utter destruction!

After all, provoking a bloodthirsty beast was as good as searching for death!

"If that's the case, then we have no choice but to go all out!"

Hearing Max's words, Jis spoke, his tone heavy, imbued with a sense of desperation and madness: "After all, we've reached a point where there's no turning back. We might as well fight to the death; perhaps there's still a slim chance!"

As he spoke, Jis gritted his teeth, his words carrying an air of determination, typical of those with no way out.

"If that's the case"

Hearing Max Gis' words, Chris, who had been silent, suddenly spoke. He opened his palm, a small white flower appearing in it, looking remarkably eerie: "When do we make our move?"

As Chris spoke, his voice was crisp and clear, yet he exuded a chilling coldness, evidently quite mad about the task at hand.

"Tonight!"

Hearing Chris' voice, Max replied earnestly: "Time is pressing for us, so we must waste not a single moment."

"There's no time to lose; tonight we must act against Leng Qingqiu, using it as a chance to eliminate Lu Yu!"

As he spoke, Max's voice carried a sinister chill, like a venomous snake, filled with malice.

"No problem!"

In response, Jis and Chris coldly said: "Tonight, we act against Leng Qingqiu!"

As they spoke, the eyes of Max and his group were filled with resolute determination, carrying an ominous shadow.

...

Lu Yu was unaware of Max and his group's plans.

At that moment, he and Leng Qingqiu were swaggering out of the Newman Group's building, appearing quite relaxed.

By his side, Leng Qingqiu held a newly signed contract, containing information on Newman Group's latest products and provisions for sharing research progress with Victory Group.

Looking at the contract in her hands, Leng Qingqiu felt a sense of displacement.

She never expected that attending a routine business visit would result in such events.

First, young master Canterbury of the Wellesley Clan was killed by Colonel Heaton of Military Intelligence Six, and the remaining members were taken away. Now, she was holding such a contract.

It must be understood that this contract seized Newman Group's profits, essentially stealing a substantial portion of their revenue.

After all, Newman Group had always been aggressive, so if Victory Group had access to their latest product progress, many clients would opt for Victory Group!

No company would agree to such terms. Even though she witnessed Lu Yu compelling Oster, Leng Qingqiu was still extremely shocked.

"You seem surprised."

Seeing the visibly shocked Leng Qingqiu, Lu Yu said nonchalantly: "Does this contract really surprise you that much?"

"Lu Yu, do you realize such a contract means Newman Group is completely giving up a huge sales region? Isn't it too much to force them into signing this?"

Her words conveyed her shock.

In the face of interests, anyone can become ferocious, not to mention that Lu Yu's action effectively made the Newman Group relinquish a huge sales territory!

Such actions are extremely terrifying in the business world!

"Too much?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu smiled slightly, saying to the shocked Leng Qingqiu: "This is what you deserve!"

As he spoke, his tone was assertive as if it was beyond question.

To be honest, this contract was indeed something Leng Qingqiu deserved!

Leng Qingqiu was a partner of the Newman Group, standing on equal footing with Oster in terms of status.

Previously, when Canterbury flirted with Leng Qingqiu and Newman Group had Abraham flatter Canterbury, Lu Yu considered it an enormous disrespect!

This is why Lu Yu was so unyieldingly forceful, compelling Oster into signing such an unreasonable contract!

Such behavior was entirely to regain dignity for Leng Qingqiu while punishing Newman Group harshly.

"Although it's like that"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Leng Qingqiu still appeared hesitant, saying: "But..."

Now, Leng Qingqiu still felt the situation was slightly inappropriate.

"Alright, no 'buts'.

Upon hearing Leng Qingqiu's words, Lu Yu spoke firmly: "You've always been decisive in business, why show hesitation now? This is what you deserve!"

As he spoke, his voice carried a hint of firm resolve: "If Newman Group dares to trouble you, I'll make them pay the heaviest price!"

His words were extremely low, exuding an unyielding aura.

Hearing Lu Yu's statement, Leng Qingqiu nodded slightly. She raised her eyes, her beautiful gaze fixed on Lu Yu, after a long look, she spoke: "Lu Yu…"

At this point, Leng Qingqiu's voice paused, as if realizing something, her words suddenly ceased, creating a sense of endless imagination.
