As the news of Zhang Han"s marriage went viral like a wildfire burning and ashen the innocent hearts the other news of the newly appointed CEO of Warren enterprise was feasted to ease the coldness like a bonfire in winter warming and pleasing the ruthless hearts.
Fortunately, thousands of miles ways from the Versailles manor and the unaware and informal couple with their only child.
State F; Underworld"s Base.
When the whole K City has fallen asleep, but the Stygian valley was waking up for its celebration a.s.sembled again where a single torch wasn"t flamed for the past five years but tonight it was lited as resembling the stary azure up in the sky.
As if reborn, Stygian valley was basking in its newborn glory after it was destroyed and washed out with the blood bath of it"s formerly throned, Late King of the underworld. But tonight, they owned this night like raising champions...
Bone shattering and ear-piercing screams could be heard from the looped fighting ring enclosed with metal fences...
The contest of bone-breaking in the lessened amount of punches was cheered by a loud and violent crowd, the spectators were roaring like hungry dogs demanding for more bloodshed. Given that there is no winner even if one survives till the end game. But to prove their strength and might trained well-build men were competing with each other. Though there is an enormous amount of bounty as a prize conditioned only if a contest kills his opponent in a sole hit. Lured by magnanimous amount, the fighters were attacking and hitting violently showing their muscles.
It"s been less than two hours since the compet.i.tion was declared open side by side the mount of dead bodies was already dumped in the h.e.l.lfire. It"s a place where weakness doesn"t exist even if does it can"t survive long. Where they don"t fight for a living but a fight to die.
In the regime of the underworld"s rule, everyone enjoying their night differently so does the higher-ups.
Where the factions of the soldier in the dungeon were shedding blood of each other while their leaders were behind the closed doors shedding the innocense of young maiden girls imported from various parts of the world to please and quench the thirst of these l.u.s.ty men. The whole blackness was roaring in euphoria enjoying in their own way whereas the Head chief of the entire faction was busy somewhere else.
A dark night and the city light were looking faint against the men gathering at the palace located at the center stygian valley. One after another prominent personalities came to rejoice together with their own cryptic plans.
Their clean appearance shone as bright as light but their souls and minds are corrupted which were more sinister than the night.
On the surface, this might look like a collaboration of a few organizations or leaders. A secret banquet, with only invited beings as most of them, were influential and voracious men having different agendas but they follow the same rule to dictate their own people, either by hook or by crook. No mercy!
Not long after, a posh black sedan rolled off, stopping right at the entrance. Under the sharp gazes of security men, the car"s door opened for the guest and a dignified man stepped out.
For tonight"s occasion, he wore a whole matte black suit, and his tall body stood straight like a rod. His mischevious eyes scanning the surroundings in the same way he always did while looking at something as grand as Versailles Manor he visited nearly two weeks ago. Unlikely as the sun, his diamond platinum earrings shone in a different color under the limelight.
"The Stygian"s mansion, not bad. But I"ve seen the better one." He commented on the impressive architecture before his eyes. " As to depict a glorifying beauty, it still doesn"t stand a chance in front of The Grand Versailles manor. So unfair, both the architect works were designed by the same person yet a contrast is as similar as between the h.e.l.l and heaven." the man smirked remembering before he was escorted inside the mansion. He was led towards the gathering hall where only highly important invited guests were present.
In an extravagantly embellished celebration room, everyone was enjoying themselves. Inside the hall, there was an elevated dance floor in the middle of the room. On the stage, almost bared and the finest beauties with the s.e.xy sleek bodies were sliding over the poll on a rhythm of erotic music playing in the background. A few men were enjoying lap dances. Louis felt like he had crossed a deserted land to witness this oasis in the middle of nowhere.
All of sudden, He felt burning at the sensual sight of these budding flowers in front of him. Now, he began to change his mind. Although Stygian mansion looks like h.e.l.l from outside, this feels like heaven from inside. At least for the h.o.r.n.y men who act whenever their d.i.c.k reacts as he was definitely one of them.
Louis let out a labored breath to ease up his growing s.e.xual tension and lightly shook his head. So this is how the gangland celebrates? He doesn"t lack women to sleep with so its just for tonight that he has to control himself. Moreover, he didn"t come here for having this but to meet his new ally and investor in his dropping business. To be precise his true sailor.
But this erotic sight was such a beautiful trap that he wants to dive in it immediately but being here made him anxious and worried. Although, he has become an ally still these people are not to trust. When a capable man like him was troubled he didn"t know how some people dared to rival them when
"h.e.l.lo, Mr. Blanc. A very warm welcome to you..." Louis turned in the direction of the voice. He saw a middle-aged man smiling at him. His eyes almost looked closed by the extension of his huge grin.
Louis chuckled and stretched his hand for a handshake. "h.e.l.lo, Mr. Li. I won"t say warm but a hot one indeed." Both the men firmly shook their hands and went into one of the chambers surrounding the dance floor, from where they can enjoy the dance amply. But Louis couldn"t take off his eyes from the topless beauties roaming with wine trays.
"Would you like to have some..." Li Louwu pointed towards the women on the dance floor with a smirk as Louis" throat went dry as the old man in front of him has noticed the bulge in his pants so Li Louwu can wait until Louis finish his peculiar concern. Louis cursed under his breath, he swears it"s just because of this f.u.c.king prurient ambiance.
Taking a deep breath, Louis declined."Nah... I"ll pa.s.s this time. But I do need a gla.s.s of fine wine." With a flick of the Li Louwu"s wrist, a girl came swaying her hips to served the wine gla.s.ses.
"How was your trip to China last month? Any progress? I hope Li Cheng might have been of some use. " Li Louwu asked as he knows they have been running the steep hills to catch the prey for quite a long while.
"Hm, We score the goal. Li Cheng was great. I must say he has an impressive network there and he"ll make it big someday." A proud look appeared on Li Louwu"s face as he looked straight into man"s eyes with a smile plastered.
Both the men talked formally and drank their wine. After a while, curious Louis asked. " Mr. Li. I came here because I want to meet the Prince of the underworld. Is he present here? Among us?" Louis scanned the room, looking for young faces. The least he knows is that the new prince was a young man in his twenties and rumored to be so handsome that one can not overlook him even if he stands in the crowd.
Suddenly, Li Louwu"s eyes narrowed suspiciously. He had established a connection with the underworld for more than twenty years yet he had never seen the most hyped faces ruling this the State F"s Underworld regime.
Of course, Underworld has its own hierarchy of places people starting from the bottom to top. These places were cla.s.sified according to their wealth and power they hold in the outer world. The higher their impact so greater they have controls and amenities.
These people are not ordinary people but the people who are at the top of the regime. Some of them are well known and political leaders. As it is easy or lucky to reach the top position once but staying at the top requires sacrifices.
In order to present themselves lawful and righteous, someone has to be a villain. There should be an opponent and human being still needs to be controlled. it"s a game of dominance, power, and money. However, it is totally fine when the N-number of lives was killed in that process. There should be a terror in their minds and hearts to dominate. Thus, the world needs to be saved from danger especially, if the danger is from someone they don"t know or had no idea.
It might have started with a small scale of rebelliousness but as human life evolves so does these illegal organizations. And the l.u.s.t for power and money took a new turn. As the Ruler of underworld placed his p.a.w.ns and slowly occupying these powerful positions one by one. His roots deepened so deep that if there is some retaliation publically, anywhere in their dominating areas and if the issue doesn"t resolve politically then there"s always an option of terror could be used to crush that.
"Woah! Did I say something wrong?" Louis asked seeing Li Louwu"s observing him narrowly.
"You"re not a spy? With your mighty connections your still lacking money. Unbelievable! you know it"s very difficult to trust." Li Louwu said with a smirk, his experienced eyes trying to note something. "If your spying for someone then..." he trailed off.
Louis"s expressions became dark but he laughed and said. "Haha! Mr. Li? Let me say this again. I"m a business person like you. Right now, all my interested in is money and only money. About my requests to Prince, you know that I risked my life to complete this mission cause if any details were disclosed. The first one that would be killed or buried alive is going to be me. We all know what were the stakes and grave the situation was. One mistake, everything would be finished. Without me, your boss wouldn"t have succeeded. I think you"re well aware, the obstacle am I talking about?"
