Wu Chengze took a car to the other side of Tianjin, installed a new SIM card, and only then dared to turn on his phone. To ensure Wu Yue's safety, he had to be extremely cautious.

He called Yuan Gang first.

Chen Huo is determined to get the Crimson Flame Sunflower and will definitely agree. The only obstacle now is the government. If Yuan Gang and his group deliberately obstruct him, there's nothing Chen Huo can do.

Therefore, Yuan Gang's attitude is of paramount importance.

The call connected, and Yuan Gang's impatient voice rang out.

"Who?"

"I am Wu Chengze."

"Damn it, you old bastard, do you know what you're doing? Let me tell you, we will not let this go. If we don't wipe out your Wu family, I'll change my surname to yours! You old bastard, you even dare to steal my things..."

On the other end of the phone, Yuan Gang disregarded his image and cursed Wu Chengze with all sorts of foul language. Wu Chengze held the receiver further away from his ear and frowned, saying:

"Alright, there's no point in saying this. Don't try to stall for time to locate me. If you keep hurling insults, I'm hanging up, so please shut up!"

"Tell me, what do you want to do?" Yuan Gang stopped cursing and said angrily.

"I've made my intentions very clear. Now tell me your stance."

"Okay, I agree! Tell me where you are, and I'll bring Chen Huo to you!"

"No rush, I still need to confirm this with Chen Huo. By the way, you'd better not set up roadblocks on the road, otherwise I'll destroy the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower. Don't doubt my determination to save my son!"

"good!"

Yuan Gang gritted his teeth and gave a reply.

Having gotten the answer he wanted, Wu Chengze hung up the phone, casually tossed it into the cargo bed of a passing truck, walked to a secluded alley without surveillance cameras, changed his clothes, and got into a taxi.

"To the capital."

An hour later.

Wu Chengze arrived in the capital.

It was already dark, and the streets were crowded with pedestrians. After finding a place where there were no surveillance cameras around, Wu Chengze dialed Chen Huo's number again. The call was answered after a few rings.

"Wu Chengze?"

"That's right, it's me."

"Yuan Gang just spoke to me on the phone. Let's skip the small talk and set a time and place," Chen Huo said indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Wu Chengze felt relieved.

Chen Huo and Yuan Gang compromised.

But it is precisely at this time that we must not be in a hurry.

Wu Chengze said calmly, "Get ready. I'll contact you again tomorrow. I hope you won't try anything funny. I'm willing to fight anyone for my son."

"I can save your son, and I can kill him in the future."

"very good!"

Wu Chengze was very satisfied with this answer.

After hanging up the phone, Wu Chengze threw it into the cargo bed of a passing truck. He then drove around Beijing for a long time before returning to Tianjin. By the time he arrived in Tianjin, it was already late at night.

When he arrived at the hiding place and saw Wu Yue looking at him with a helpless expression, he froze on the spot. After rubbing his eyes to make sure he wasn't seeing things, he was completely dumbfounded.

"You...you're awake?!"

"That's right."

"Then... then what about everything I did before?!"

Upon receiving confirmation, Wu Chengze felt like he was going crazy. His son had woken up on his own, and everything he had done before was just digging up the Wu family's grave. God was playing a cruel joke on him!

Wu Yue also looked bitter.

He had been awake for several hours, but still couldn't accept it. The Wu family's falling out with the official martial arts authorities was tantamount to cutting off their own future. No martial arts family could be powerful enough to stand against the state apparatus.

Internal strife is pointless.

Wu Yue took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Father, calm down! The most important thing now is to solve the problem. We can't go head-to-head with the authorities; we must take immediate action to remedy the situation!"

call!

suck!

Wu Chengze took a deep breath, composed himself, and after a moment's thought, said, "My mind is a bit muddled right now. From what you're saying, you've already come up with a solution?"

"That's right, return the Crimson Flame Heart Sunflower to the authorities! Then, hand over all of our Wu family's secular assets to the authorities free of charge, as an apology, to avoid conflict with the authorities!"

Wu Yue said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Wu Chengze fell into deep thought.

Upon hearing this, Wu Qingfeng frowned and said, "Wouldn't we be losing out big time doing this? We'd end up with nothing, and in the end, we'd be handing over our assets to someone else. I think we should just ask for a few Breakthrough Pills; at least that way, we won't have worked for nothing!"

"inappropriate!"

As soon as Wu Qingfeng finished speaking, Wu Yue shook his head and said:

"Let's talk about worldly businesses first. So what if we don't have them? We've been running them for so many years and have accumulated enough wealth that our entire family could live off for generations. What do we need so much money for?"

"Besides, the Breakthrough Pill is a dangerous thing. We might get it but not live to use it! If we anger the authorities, they're capable of anything. Other ancient martial arts families might not support us in breaking the rules like this!"

"Why not return the secular businesses to the government and seek the continued survival of our family? Even if we don't get the Breakthrough Pill, other ancient martial arts families that don't get it will support us."

"I know this is hard to accept, but it's better than the Wu family being wiped out, right? As long as we continue to live on this land of Dragon Kingdom, the authorities have plenty of ways to deal with us!"

Wu Yue's lengthy explanation clearly outlined the pros and cons, and Wu Qingfeng had to admit that it was the best solution.

He was just very unhappy.

It's a joke to drag the Wu family into this quagmire for the sake of Wu Yue. Looking back now, he even thinks Wu Chengze was a fool, and so was he.

"well……"

Wu Qingfeng sighed and remained silent.

This can be seen as a way of expressing their stance.

Wu Yue looked at Wu Chengze.

"Father, it's time to make a decision. If we delay, the authorities might take action against our Wu family's headquarters! Grandfather is strong, but the authorities are not without their own experts; we might not be able to intimidate them!"

"I don't think they'll compromise on this, otherwise wouldn't other ancient martial arts families follow suit? Even if they agreed to your request earlier, it's probably just a delaying tactic!"

Wu Chengze's eyes flickered, his heart filled with intense struggle.

Wu Yi'an opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

The current situation concerns the fate of the Wu family, and he doesn't want to interfere, lest he become the scapegoat in the future. He knows Wu Chengze; he's capable of doing something like this.

After a long silence, Wu Chengze's eyes gradually hardened.

"This is the only way!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Chengze suddenly moved.

He appeared in front of Wu Qingfeng in the next instant.

I'm so sorry!

As he spoke, Wu Chengze suddenly struck Wu Qingfeng in the chest with a palm strike.

boom!

Wu Qingfeng flew out and crashed into the wall with a loud thud.

"An apology alone is unlikely to quell their anger. We need someone of influence to take responsibility for this. You stole the Crimson Flame Sunflower, so no one is more suitable than you."

Wu Chengze said coldly.
