Chapter 298: Chapter 297: Grand Gesture

```

Frustration,

Nicholas had never felt so stifled before.

As a Sky-breaking Expert, to be repeatedly threatened by others, and yet he dared not retaliate!

"You all are in this together!"

Anger consumed him, but he could only speak out, which was completely against Nicholas’s usual practice of acting first without discussion.

"Think whatever you want, but now, nobody is allowed to touch him. Otherwise, do not blame us for being impolite," the Huaxia youth said with an indifferent sneer.

"But if he kills Carter and Doug, I’m afraid the East Atlantic Company will block us from even approaching Resurrection Island!" Alexander glanced at the three Huaxia Sky-breaking Experts and dared not take action, reluctantly interjecting from the side.

"What? What does that have to do with us?" The Huaxia youth scoffed, not even deigning to give Alexander a glance.

At this moment, Lin Hao was already dragging Carter and Doug into the jungle, vanishing into the depths in the blink of an eye.

Gone...

Completely ignoring the still arguing groups of Sky-breaking Experts, he took the screaming Carter and Doug away from the fortress headquarters.

Flayed Cliff, akin to Hell.

Nobody knew how many had died here, how many who opposed and did not comply with the East Atlantic Company and Freedom City were killed at this place.

Today was destined to be an unforgettable day.

Because on this day, Lin Hao was going to flay Carter and Doug on the very cliff.

Many went to watch upon hearing the news, and many were too scared to even look.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Earth, inside the conference room of the East Atlantic Company headquarters.

A top-level meeting.

In the office, John Robert’s face was expressionless; on the conference table before him was a huge tablet computer displaying images of the Transshipment Island fortress being burned by blue flames.

"President, the situation is like this: we had already laid out a great bait to attract the world’s finest fighters here. With them taking action, killing Lin Hao was almost certain, and we would not need our own experts to go back," explained Mei Chuannei, standing at the side and speaking rapidly.

However, John Robert just shook his head and raised his eyebrows, giving Mei Chuannei a glance:

"And the result?"

"The result..." Mei Chuannei’s mouth twitched, "President, we had everything under control and were inches away from killing that Lin Hao..."

"I asked about the result!" John Robert’s gaze was almost predatory.

"Three Huaxia Sky-breaking Experts suddenly appeared and rescued Lin Hao."

"Although we still have not identified the identities and origins of these three Huaxia Sky-breaking Experts, we have reason to believe they are with Lin Hao," the two understanding executives hurriedly explained.

However, John Robert just let out a cold laugh: "The result!"

"President, Lin Hao burned all of our assets on Transshipment Island and... and he took Carter and Ascetic Doug to Flayed Cliff, flayed them publicly, and then hung them off the cliff to ’fish’."

"Moreover, the families behind those martial artists are starting to pressure our congress, demanding that we immediately open the pathway to Resurrection Island."

"We... can’t withstand the congress, once the congress orders..."

"Enough!"

```

Before he could finish speaking, John Robert slammed the table fiercely, his face extremely unsightly: "Everyone except the executives, out!"

The conference room was extremely quiet, and the aura emanating from John Robert made everyone feel intimidated.

Soon, the vast conference room was left with only nine people.

It was then that John, with trembling hands, removed his glasses, his facial skin quivering with rage.

"Trash, all trash!"

"I meticulously planned and managed to create the situation we have today."

"Just because of you trash, my business on Transshipment Island, boom! Went up in flames."

"I spent a whole month using every means at my disposal to mine over six hundred tons of Primordial Stones, and because of you trash, with a bang, it was all snatched away."

"Now, at such a high cost, I have gathered all the world’s experts on Transshipment Island to deal with Lin Hao."

"And yet, because of you incompetents, you let in Huaxia people, and now, those who were originally here to kill Lin Hao are eyeing Resurrection Island!"

"Do you know what’s on Resurrection Island? Do you know how much effort and what price we paid to drive the Huaxia people away from Resurrection Island!"

"Incompetents, you group of incompetents!"

John Robert grew angrier as he spoke, suddenly standing up and tossing his glasses forcefully onto the table.

"Snap!"

The glasses broke upon impact, and even the tablet computer on the table was smashed.

"Speak up, what are we going to do now?"

His anger unabated, not even Carter and Doug being flayed by Lin Hao at Peeling Cliff could make him this furious.

The conference room fell silent; nobody spoke, even Mei Chuannei bowed his head.

"What? You’ve all given up?" John Robert scoffed, his gaze sweeping over everyone like a sword. He then picked up a glass of water, drained it in one gulp, and sneered: "Since you won’t speak, then let me speak for you."

"Don’t think I don’t know that behind Lin Hao, it’s definitely the Dragon Needle pulling strings."

"They want to return to Resurrection Island, huh? Well, isn’t that easy? Our people have already taken the lead on Resurrection Island. As long as we can find the treasures, then what will Huaxia count for?"

John Robert chuckled and stood up, his eyes sweeping over everyone: "This time, I, the President, will take matters into my own hands. You go as well! If Lin Hao wants to play, we’ll play with him, and play big!"

Play big?

In the conference room, eight executives looked at each other, all dumbfounded.

"That’s right!"

John Robert sneered: "Doesn’t he want us to open the gateway? Fine, we’ll open it, and not just open it, but fully open it!"

Fully open?

The eight were once again bewildered, clueless as to what John Robert had in mind.

Resurrection Island could very possibly be a treasure island that fell from the Upper Realm to Earth, and while it’s filled with countless dangers, the treasures are even more tempting!

Not only are there innumerable Primordial Stones, but there are also relics from the Upper Realm that might even contain miraculous Cultivation Techniques.

Deep in Resurrection Island, the East Atlantic Company discovered a relic that they just couldn’t enter. If this caught the attention of others and everyone came to snatch it, would the East Atlantic Company still have an opportunity?

"But..."

Someone wanted to say something but was silenced by a glare from John Robert: "But what? They’re so formidable, right? When the time comes, let them clear the way for us, and we will reap the rewards. Even, if possible, we should make sure that all the experts who enter Resurrection Island..."

John Robert sneered, making a throat-slitting gesture.

An icy chill swept through the conference room in an instant, as if entering the Arctic...

John actually wanted to have everyone entering Resurrection Island killed off... indeed, that’s a bold move!
