Wang Chao looked at the group of women and felt somewhat stunned. He had mentally prepared himself when he saw the numerous cages in the underground cave, knowing that many people might have fallen victim to Firmin's cruel deeds. But seeing so many women now still shocked him.
The old man also emerged from the forest, sizing up Wang Chao with a wary expression. Despite Wang Chao being Shen Bing's friend, the old man remained cautious.
"Firmin has such a hobby?" Wang Chao was even more surprised.
The old man seemed to perceive Wang Chao's thoughts and frowned, "I knew Firmin's secret, and that's why he locked me up. I'm different from the other women!"
"Oh," Wang Chao suddenly realized and turned to Shen Bing, asking, "Bingbing, are you okay? Were you tortured?"
In truth, Wang Chao had noticed that Shen Bing wasn't injured when he first saw her. The only issue was some minor skin abrasions from crawling out of the escape tunnel, nothing serious.
"I'm fine, Brother Wang. We need to help these women to the end, as good people should," Shen Bing said.
"With so many people, we can't handle this alone. We should turn them over to the local police," Wang Chao suggested.
"No!"
The old man stepped forward, his expression grave as he said, "Firmin has been colluding with the local police for years, and some of the police chiefs are under his control."
"If we send these girls to the police, it would be like sending sheep into a tiger's den."
"Firmin colluding with the police?" Wang Chao's expression changed.
"That's right!" The old man nodded.
Wang Chao furrowed his brows.
It seemed like he had made a mistake!
Before leaving the underground cave, he shouldn't have called the local police.
"You all wait for me."
Wang Chao stepped aside and called Zhang Long, asking him to check for any news about Firmin's castle.
Soon, he received confirmation that the police had entered the castle and took an injured person to the hospital for treatment. However, there was no news about the police investigating further, and there was no mention of the underground cave in the news.
"Wang Chao, is Bernard in trouble?" Zhang Long asked.
"It's a big problem. In any case, you must keep an eye on Shen Feng. Do not allow anyone to administer medication to him, and don't let anyone approach him, understand?" Wang Chao said in a serious tone.
"What's going on?"
"We might have offended a powerful group."
"A powerful group?"
"Yes, and it's a group beyond your imagination. There might be Great King-level experts."
"What?!" Zhang Long was shocked by this revelation, and fear washed over him. "What should we do then?"
Great King-level experts!
Once such superpowered individuals appeared, he probably wouldn't be able to stop them.
"I don't think they will act so soon. You protect Feifei and Shen Feng for now, and I'll take Bingbing back after I finish here," Wang Chao said in a serious tone.
"Okay, I understand," Zhang Long agreed.
Shen Bing walked over, her expression serious. "What's going on?"
"Before coming here, I already dealt with Bernard, and I reported it to the police. However, they didn't arrest him."
Wang Chao put away his phone, his expression grave as he said, "I suspect that the higher-ups in the local police might be connected to Bernard. They might come after us."
Shen Bing's expression also changed upon hearing this news.
In this foreign land, the threat to Shen Bing was not a concern. However, now that Shen Feng's condition had just improved, if those people targeted him, he would undoubtedly die.
"So, we must return to the hospital as soon as possible, and we can not worry about these people anymore," Wang Chao uttered solemnly.
If they're to transport these people safely back, it would markedly delay their time.
"Okay," Shen Bing nodded without hesitation.
To her, helping others was important, but her brother was even more important. Besides, she had already done her best to rescue these people from the cave.
"Miss Shen, Mr. Wang, please do not leave us."
A Nordic beauty named Gulina stepped forward, looking at Wang Chao and Shen Bing anxiously. "Please, take us away. I... I can offer you money."
"Yes, I am the heiress of Shunhua Group. As long as you escort me back, I promise my father will give you several billion U.S. dollars!"
"My family is also a prestigious clan. As long as you take us back, we'll reward you handsomely."
"Please, we beg you!"
As Gulina spoke, many women at the scene also began pleading.
They had been tormented by Firmin and escaped from the cave in a sorry state. Despite their escape, their strength was limited, and they're vulnerable.
If they encountered some thugs on their way back, they might be captured again.
Shen Bing had called Wang Chao here, showing that she trusted him, which indicated that Wang Chao was powerful.
"Everyone, we have some urgent matters to deal with. My brother's life is at risk at any moment, so we must return to handle the situation. I hope you understand," Shen Bing said, turning to the women.
However, she did not mean to abandon them entirely.
"Here's what we'll do: I'll make a call to my friend, and they will come to pick you up."
After speaking, she glanced at Wang Chao.
Without hesitation, Wang Chao immediately took out his phone and informed Joseph of the situation, asking him to send someone to help.
After dealing with everything, Wang Chao explained some things to the women and set up a confusing formation in the deep forest.
Standing outside the formation, Wang Chao pointed to a stone at the center and said, "As long as you do not leave from here, no one will find you outside unless they blow up this entire forest. Remember that when Joseph's people arrive, you need to move this stone, and they will find you."
"Remember, when they arrive, they will shout 'Kung Pao Chicken,' and you just need to reply with 'Stewed Chicken with Mushrooms' to confirm the password."
"Now, do you all understand?"
The old man and the women looked at each other with puzzled and somewhat angry expressions. They did not quite grasp what Wang Chao was saying.
They only saw Wang Chao drawing some patterns on the ground and moving some stones, doing some strange things and patterns.
Could they really remain undiscovered in such a way?
In their view, Wang Chao was just playing with them!
"Entering the patterns you drew, no one will find us?" the old man asked.
"Yes," Wang Chao nodded.
Seeing the suspicion in their eyes, Wang Chao did not waste any time. He stepped directly into the confusing formation he had set up.
As soon as he entered, the old man, Gulina, and all the women present felt their vision blur, and then they realized that Wang Chao had disappeared.
"Eh?!"
The old man, Gulina, and the others were shocked, looking at each other and seeing the astonishment in each other's eyes.
