Busan, the second largest city in Korea, second only to Seoul, is also a logistics center in the Pacific Ocean.

The J Family, which has a comparable strength and deep-seated hatred with the Ryu Family from Jeju Island, is entrenched here.

At this moment, the J Family is also not at peace.

"What? Jin Zhengxi was defeated and hung on a tree for public display?"

Jin Zhengming was discussing some matters with an important figure from the Cui Family when a subordinate came in to report this situation, instantly startling him into shouting out loud.

The important figure from the Cui Family didn't know what had happened at first, but with Jin Zhengming's shout, everything became clear, and this guest's expression became quite peculiar.

"Mr. Zheming, I sincerely apologize. Something has happened at home and I need to handle it personally, which might delay Mr. Zheming a bit…"

Family disgrace exposed to the public, Jin Zhengming's expression was also quite unpleasant. He had been too excited just now and couldn't help but shout out.

But now it's impossible to take it back; Cui Zheming has already heard it, so he could only express his apology.

Jin Zhengxi being humiliated like this didn't just disgraced Jin Zhengxi alone; the entire J Family was shamed, and now Jin Zhengming needs to rush over immediately, otherwise the entire J Family would become a laughing stock in Korea.

Compared with this matter, other things can be temporarily put aside, even when facing this important figure from the Cui Family.

"Why not let me go with you? Maybe I can help a bit…"

Cui Zheming thought for a moment and then suggested this.

Now that the marriage alliance between the Cui Family and the J Family has succeeded, the relationship between the two families has become much closer, and they also exchange resources. For instance, Cui Zheming had come to the J Family to discuss a cooperative project with Jin Zhengming.

The talks were going well and might have been concluded soon, but unexpectedly, this matter caused a delay, and Cui Zheming was somewhat unhappy about it.

Jin Zhengxi is one of the esteemed experts of the J Family, with strength reaching the Grandmaster Level, although only the Master Level Early Stage, he is still quite formidable.

In Korea, those who can defeat Jin Zhengxi and even dare to hang him up for public display are really few in number…

Those who could do this would either be long-established dignitaries or experts from major families, and generally wouldn't carry out actions this extreme.

If someone truly dared to do this, it seems only Liu Xianjun from the Liu Family would have this capability…

But ever since the J Family married into the Cui Family, Jin Zhengming himself has stepped into the Master Level Late Stage, and the Ryu Family has long since withdrawn into silence, not daring to make any move. Why would they take such radical actions now?

Cui Zheming was also a bit puzzled, so after some hesitation, he proposed this idea.

"Uh… Mr. Zheming willing to accompany me, I am truly grateful!"

In fact, Jin Zhengming was not very pleased with this idea, because after all, it was his own family disgrace, and having Cui Zheming accompany him to witness, what kind of situation would that be?

But Cui Zheming's status is special; even Jin Zhengming dared not offend him easily. After some hesitation, Jin Zhengming agreed, but while he said it, he was internally cursing Cui Zheming for being a meddlesome character…

Of course, despite his discontent, Jin Zhengming knew that having Cui Zheming come along was not entirely a bad thing, there were certainly some benefits.

For instance… if Jin Zhengming ended up fighting with people from the Liu Family, then Cui Zheming would surely stand on his side. With Cui Zheming's strength, as long as he was willing to help, those from the Liu Family would not be worth fearing.

Cui Zheming hails from the first-rate Korean family, the Cui Family, which has Grandmaster-level experts in residence. His strength is also quite extraordinary and has long reached the Master Level Late Stage.

Cui Zheming feels that he has little hope of crossing into Grandmaster Level, so he has put most of his energy into commercial operations, yet his cultivation has never been neglected.

Even if Jin Zhengming were to fight with Cui Zheming, the one who would definitely suffer a crushing defeat would be Jin Zhengming, no doubt, as he has just stepped into the Master Level Late Stage not long ago.

Just Jin Zhengming alone is enough to subdue the Liu Family's experts, and now with Cui Zheming joining in, it's like adding wings to a tiger.

The fact that someone was able to defeat Jin Zhengxi indicates that an expert has arrived on the opposing side, but Jin Zhengming is not concerned. If the two Master Level Late Stage experts couldn't manage it, then that would truly be a disgrace in Korea!

Cui Zheming naturally understood Jin Zhengming's intentions, but he didn't care. His gesture of accompanying them was indeed intended to lend support to Jin Zhengming.

He represents the Cui Family and himself, capable of exerting a strong deterrent effect at crucial moments.

Now that the J Family and the Cui Family are united through marriage, it serves as a significant support for the Cui Family; naturally, Cui Zheming does not wish for the J Family to encounter troubles, as that would spell considerable loss for the Cui Family.

Thus, after receiving the news, Jin Zhengming immediately set off for Jeju Island, with Cui Zheming accompanying him.

"Jin Zhengming has arrived... That was quick!"

Almost as soon as Jin Zhengming boarded the plane at Busan Airport, Liu Xianhe had already received the information. The relationship between the two families was so hostile that even the smallest movements were naturally well-monitored.

Especially with the chaos caused this time, Liu Xianhe mobilized the strength of the Ryu Family to concentrate on responding to the incoming experts from the J Family.

Jin Zhengming's return was certainly within Liu Xianhe's expectations, but he didn't expect him to rush over immediately upon receiving the news, which was quite out of character for him.

Of course, Jin Zhengming was cornered this time. Jin Zhengxi was hung up on a tree for public display, and if he delayed the rescue any longer, soon everyone in Korea would know about it.

"Oh? Have they come?"

When Qin Fang received the news, he was not surprised at all. One purpose of humiliating Jin Zhengxi was to thoroughly enrage the J Family.

If even this couldn't lure Jin Zhengming over, all his preparations would have been in vain.

Now that Jin Zhengming was heading for Jeju Island, it was well within Qin Fang's expectations, so he wasn't surprised at all.

Korea is just a small place; the distance from Busan to Jeju Island is not far. By boat, it takes only a few hours. If by plane, the speed is even faster.

Jin Zhengming and his entourage came by plane and arrived at Jeju Airport in less than an hour, then quickly drove to the resort area.

A slight delay would mean Jin Zhengxi hung a little longer, and Jin Zhengming was even more anxious than Jin Zhengxi himself.

Though Jin Zhengxi was hung on a tree, the people at the resort were always watching their movements, and at the first sign of trouble, they would immediately take him down.

Moreover, they also regularly brought water to ensure that these three people were adequately hydrated—certainly, they wouldn't let them die like that.

As said, although the two families had grudges, it wasn't to the extent of murder; doing so would make things even worse.

Didn't you see? Just Jin Zhengxi getting hanged on a tree for a while had Jin Zhengming rushing over anxiously.

Liu Xianhe cared about these matters, but Qin Fang couldn't be bothered. After leaving the people hanging on the tree, he ignored the matter and went out to have fun with Tang Feifei and the others.

He only showed up after receiving Liu Xianhe's message, leisurely heading over to meet the J Family with Liu Xianhe and the others.

"Ah, another one who isn't afraid to die..."

This was Qin Fang's evaluation of Jin Zhengming, in reality, not taking him seriously.

The two sides converged under the trees where Jin Zhengxi and his two companions were hanging, and the J Family members, upon seeing the three people on the tree, were instantly enraged.

"Liu Xianhe, this matter between you and me isn't over..."

Jin Zhengming almost immediately sought out Liu Xianhe, shouting angrily.

These past two years, Liu Xianhe had been primarily in Dragon Country and rarely returned to Korea, so Jin Zhengming hadn't taken him seriously, assuming Liu Xianjun acted on his own.

However, seeing Liu Xianhe present, he immediately realized this was Liu Xianhe's intention. After all, Liu Xianhe was the real family head. Although Liu Xianjun was more powerful, he had to obey Liu Xianhe's orders.

"Hmph..."

Liu Xianhe snorted coldly, not even bothering to offer an explanation, seemingly finding it unnecessary. Jin Zhengming's reaction confirmed that the J Family attributed the incident to the Ryu Family, a reputation they couldn't shake off...

Since it was an unavoidable reputation, Liu Xianhe straightforwardly accepted it, driving Jin Zhengming furious.

"Cui Zheming..."

Although Liu Xianhe could disregard Jin Zhengming, he couldn't ignore the person beside him. Upon seeing Cui Zheming, Liu Xianhe's face instantly darkened, with a shadow casting over his heart.

He knew the J Family had aligned with the Cui Family's big ship, but he hadn't expected them to send someone over for this dispute.

If it were anyone else, it would be understandable, but sending Cui Zheming was something Liu Xianhe couldn't ignore.

Qin Fang might not know Cui Zheming's identity, but Liu Xianhe was very aware that Cui Zheming was the brother of the Cui Family head Cui Haoyu, a highly skilled expert. He had turned to business operations only because of a bottleneck in his cultivation, yet his strength was indisputable...

Cui Zheming held a high status in the Cui Family, similar to Liu Xianjun's within the Ryu Family. He was not just powerful but also managed all the Cui Family's subsidiary businesses, truly one of the most important figures in the Cui Family.

Because of his status, Cui Zheming's presence brought enormous pressure to Liu Xianhe, even dimming his confidence in Qin Fang. (To be continued.
