Wang Chao's voice was calm, but it carried an unquestionable dominance!
Under his compelling voice, no one dared to speak. The entire room fell into a dead silence.
Thump, thump, thump!!
Facing Wang Chao's question, Jessica didn't reply. She remained kneeling on the ground, her expression blank, still immersed in the pressure from Wang Chao's aura.
She could even hear her own heartbeat, feeling as if her heart would leap out of her chest at any moment.
Wang Chao's overwhelming strength made her almost suffocate.
Especially when she recalled the terrifying aura Wang Chao had just displayed, her face turned paler, feeling as if she were facing a terrifying death god emerging from hell.
Even though Wang Chao had already withdrawn his aura, she remained in that state and couldn't break free.
Not only her, but also the three Great King-level experts and the other War God-level experts felt the same.
Many of them had lived for half their lives, but it was the first time they had encountered such a terrifying aura.
Although Wang Chao's aura only lasted for a moment, it was enough to shock and frighten them.
Their instincts told them that if Wang Chao wanted to kill them, it would only take a few seconds for their heads to roll.
"Hey, can you at least say something? What are you going to do now? Are you still continuing the operation?" Wang Chao asked.
At this moment, the three Great King-level experts finally came back to their senses. They looked at Wang Chao with fear in their eyes and said in unison, "No, the operation is canceled."
Wang Chao let out a sigh of relief and said, "Good, now that you've said that, I can rest assured."
"Remember, you'd better keep your word. If I find out that you're still taking action, I won't be polite to you!"
With that, he turned around and left.
Before leaving, he waved his hand, retracting the silver needles that had pierced the War God-level experts.
After he left, the oppressive atmosphere in the room finally dissipated somewhat.
The three Great King-level experts sat weakly on the sofa, drenched in sweat.
One of the Great King-level experts looked terrified and muttered to himself, "How can there be such a terrifying person?"
The other two Great King-level experts wore the same expressions.
They were all Great King-level experts, standing at the pinnacle of human martial arts. Even if they were in a top-tier country, they would enjoy wealth and prosperity.
After all, Sikong Yun, as a Great King-level expert, was already planning to be crowned in Dragon Kingdom.
Although they couldn't compare to Sikong Yun and couldn't achieve as much glory and greatness, their own strength was not to be underestimated. It would be entirely possible for them to be enfeoffed in a small country.
However, before they could achieve success and fame, they encountered a powerful figure like Wang Chao, whose mere aura completely overwhelmed them, making them doubt their lives!
They glanced at each other, seeing the terror in each other's eyes.
"Who is this Wang Chao exactly?"
"After we land, we must use all our network resources to investigate!"
"We must find out everything about him!"
Their faces turned pale, but they were also extremely excited.
In one's lifetime, encountering a formidable martial artist was a great pleasure!
Jessica also snapped out of her fearful state. Her face was pale as she wiped the sweat from her forehead and clenched her teeth, her expression grave.
She looked at the three Great King-level experts and said solemnly, "Uncle, Second Uncle, Fourth Uncle, should we continue with our operation now?"
One of the Great King-level experts, who had a lightning mark on his forehead, had a gloomy look and rebuked, "Continue the operation? Are you out of your mind? Didn't you hear what that Wang Chao said? If we continue, we'll be facing his wrath!"
"That kind of expert would kill us all without a doubt!"
"So, the operation is canceled!"
Although the Uncle was quite powerful, he was also scared out of his wits by Wang Chao's aura and didn't dare to defy him. Moreover, he knew that Wang Chao wasn't just bluffing. If they acted, Wang Chao might strike preemptively and kill them!
To survive, they had to cancel the operation!
The other two Great King-level experts also nodded in agreement, and the dozen or so War God-level experts followed suit.
To be honest, they were all terrified.
"But, we've been preparing for this operation for over three years, and Kelly made significant sacrifices to get this job. If we cancel the operation, wouldn't it be a waste of her sacrifices?" Jessica was a bit reluctant to give up.
"A waste of Kelly's sacrifices?" The Uncle glanced at Jessica, his expression serious, and said in a deep voice, "Let me ask you, where is Kelly now?"
"Let me ask you again, can we defeat Wang Chao?"
"Let me ask you once more, if Wang Chao really comes after us, can we escape?"
"With just Wang Chao alone suppressing us, and possibly adding Macmillan to the mix, do you think we have any chance of winning?"
"If we continue to act, do you think we can save Kelly's life?"
This series of questions left Jessica speechless.
She clenched her teeth and remained silent.
In her heart, she already had the answer.
Seeing her reaction, the Uncle also understood and sighed, saying, "Jessica, although we've canceled this operation, we haven't exposed our whereabouts."
"We just chose the wrong time and were forced to cancel halfway."
"We'll stop the operation this time, and next time, we'll come back even stronger."
"So, now you can go back to your position and wait. We also need to return to our respective positions."
Though Jessica was still unwilling, she knew the Uncle was making sense. She could only sigh and open the door to leave.
After Jessica left, the Uncle's face became serious. He said, "Put away all the firearms and disperse."
"Also, everyone return to your workstations immediately. Remember, don't show any flaws."
The War God-level experts who had been holding the guns quickly acted, disassembling the firearms into various parts and hiding them in their pockets, pants, or other bags.
The Second Uncle pointed at Leisio, who was lying on the ground, and frowned, "What about Leisio?"
"Wake him up immediately and let him figure out how to explain his injuries himself." The Uncle uttered coldly.
With that, he kicked Leisio's body.
Leisio immediately woke up in pain, thinking he was still facing Wang Chao. He looked up and prepared himself for a fight, only to find that Wang Chao was nowhere to be seen. Instead, everyone was disassembling their firearms. Confused, he asked, "What's going on?"
The Second Uncle's gaze turned cold, and he said, "The operation is canceled. Return to your position immediately, and do not attract the attention of Starlink Group's security personnel."
"What? Canceled? Why?" Leisio was taken aback.
"Doesn't matter why. It's just canceled. Now, get lost!" The Uncle uttered coldly.
Leisio wanted to say something more, but after being glared at by the Uncle, he did not dare to utter a word. He quickly took out his firearm and disassembled it into parts. Then, he tended to his forehead wound with some special medical tools before leaving.
The others also left one after another.
Soon, only the three Great King-level experts, the Uncle, the Second Uncle, and the Fourth Uncle, remained in the private room.
"How do you feel about this Wang Chao?" the Fourth Uncle asked.
The Uncle poured a glass of whisky, took a sip to calm himself, and shook off the terror caused by Wang Chao's terrifying aura. He uttered in a deep voice, "The name Wang Chao is unfamiliar. He's not known in the extraterritorial battlefield or internationally."
"But I can assure you that he must have an exceptionally terrifying identity."
"Will he come after us?" the Second Uncle asked, his expression serious, making a throat-slitting gesture.
The Uncle shook his head and said, "No."
"I guess he just happened to be on the same flight as us and accidentally discovered our plan. He did not desire us to interfere with his journey, so he came to talk to us."
"If he wanted to attack us, he could have done it directly, and none of us would have escaped death!"
"So, he does not have any hostility towards us. He just wants to reach his destination safely and smoothly."
Hearing this, the Second and Fourth Uncles exchanged glances and felt relieved.
As long as Wang Chao was not their enemy, everything would be fine.
After leaving the private room, Wang Chao walked through the corridor and arrived at the door of the room where Kelly was held.
Claudia was still waiting there.
When she saw Wang Chao approaching, her face lit up with joy, and she enthusiastically waved at him, "Mr. Wang, over here."
Wang Chao walked over, naturally giving her a warm hug and whispered, "Let's go inside."
Claudia blushed immediately, her heart pounding, but she firmly held Wang Chao's hand and eagerly opened the door, pulling him inside.
Once inside, they locked the door.
Before Wang Chao could say anything, Claudia rushed into his arms like a wolf and hugged him tightly, taking the opportunity to kiss him passionately.
