"Goodbye, Director Lin!"
"Director Lin, once the ordering conference successfully ends tomorrow, please grace us with your presence at the celebration party!"
A small disturbance hadn’t affected the progress of the day’s conference. Many left fully satisfied, delighted beyond words. Even the pharmaceutical representatives from the North had placed large orders, praising new drugs like the Divine Dragon Detox Powder profusely.
As evening approached, people began to disperse in small groups. Before leaving, they all made a point of saying goodbye to Lin Fan and his party. Lin Fan responded with nods to each of them but couldn’t help glancing frequently at the Yunhai Group’s booth.
"Youwei, once you’re done here, co ho for dinner. Your eldest sister said she’s bringing Old Master Han from the provincial capital along," Mr. Yuan Sr. said, walking over with his hands clasped behind his back, his face beaming.
With him presiding over the day’s events, everything had gone smoothly and without a hitch. If they could get through tomorrow safely, the Yuan family’s prestige would surely soar. Perhaps in the future, every ordering conference could bypass the Wen family of the Imperial Capital, allowing the Hai City Yuan Family to take over completely! At this thought, the old man couldn’t help but secretly straighten his back, the smile on his face growing wider.
"My eldest sister is coming back... Okay, Grandpa, you go ahead. Lin Fan and I will be over soon." Yuan Youwei’s smile faltered for a mont before she nodded, her expression returning to normal.
"You have an elder sister?" Lin Fan asked, watching Mr. Yuan Sr. and the others leave before turning his puzzled gaze to Yuan Youwei. He’d had considerable contact with the Yuan family but had never heard anyone ntion this.
"Hmph! Yuan Xiangjun was stubborn back then, insisting on marrying Han Yiming, the second son of the Han family from the provincial capital, whom nobody thought highly of," Mrs. Xue spoke up first, unable to stop herself from speaking indignantly before a slightly uneasy Yuan Youwei could respond. "As a result, her life with the Han family after the marriage was miserable. It’s said she was even frequently abused by Han Yiming. Unfortunately, for the sake of her pride, she has stubbornly refused a divorce."
As the group made their way to the underground parking lot, Yuan Youwei let out a bitter laugh. Her mood low, she whispered to Lin Fan, "...My elder sister and I competed for the vice president position at Yuandao Capital, but Grandpa felt she wasn’t competent enough. So, she married in a huff. She probably thought becoming the wealthy matriarch of the Han family would put her above , but she chose poorly."
"Let’s go to Su Pharmaceutical first. We’ll pick a few reliable people to co over and prop up Yuandao Pharmaceuticals," Lin Fan said, shaking his head at her state, unwilling to pry further.
BOOM!
The next mont, before Wang ng could even open the door of the black Bentley, two dazzling white beams of light suddenly pierced the darkness of the distant garage. A black SUV ca roaring straight toward them!
"Looking for death?" Wang ng’s eyes narrowed. He swore as he dodged to the side, his fists cracking loudly.
Lin Fan frowned silently, pulling Yuan Youwei and Mrs. Xue back in a swift retreat.
With a loud SCREECH, the black SUV screeched to a halt right in front of them, the harsh sound of friction grating on the ears. The car doors were slamd open, and three hostile figures jumped out.
"Young Master, long ti no see. I didn’t expect you to still be alive and well, huh?" a thin-faced woman, flanked by two towering, burly n in suits, said with a nod and a mocking smile.
"The second of Shen Yueli’s four lackeys, Ah Lu?" Lin Fan’s eyes narrowed, his expression turning cold. Just as I expected. By making my mother’s funeral such a grand affair, I knew the Imperial Capital would take notice. But does a re lackey like Ah Lu really think she can handle , Lin Fan? Do you think that just because I was nearly poisoned to death seven years ago, I’m no longer worth your consideration?
"Young Master, you’ve only got a tough mouth left, haven’t you? The Mistress said you shouldn’t be appearing before the world, so..." Ah Lu’s expression shifted, and a sneer twisted her lips as if she were gazing at a dead man. "We’ll just have to help you out and let you die one more ti!"
Her voice suddenly sharpened as she waved her hand forcefully.
CRACK! CRACK!
At that, the two suited n behind her laughed nacingly, cracking their knuckles as they strode forward.
"Getting to personally kill the man once known as the Heavenly Pride War God... This trip won’t be a waste for us brothers, hahaha!"
The two were clearly putting on a show of force. With each booming step, they cracked the hard floor tiles, leaving deep footprints in their wake!
"Fuck, two Righteous Energy masters, and it looks like they’re both at late-stage Great Perfection!" Wang ng cried out in shock, his eyes bulging, while Lin Fan remained silent and expressionless.
anwhile, Yuan Youwei and Mrs. Xue looked at Lin Fan, both shocked and suspicious. The identity of their opponents was far beyond what either of them could have anticipated. Otherwise, no one would be lying in wait here, so clearly intent on killing Lin Fan!
"Heh, scared now?" Ah Lu sneered, a mocking glint in her eyes as she pointed at the two large n. "Speaking of which, these two were personally selected by Great Commander Shen from the Hulin Guard to be his confidants. They were then gifted to the Mistress for her protection. And the reason they possess such strength is all thanks to the Qi Replenishing Pills you left behind in the army."
"...So, you benefited from my grace, and now you want to kill ?" Lin Fan glanced indifferently at the two n, then turned to the eager Wang ng and Mrs. Xue. "I can’t be bothered with trash like this. I’ll let you two test your skills."
What? I am the elite of the elite of the Hulin Guard, favored by Great Commander Shen Changlong! A peerless martial arts master at the peak of Righteous Energy! And in your eyes, Lin Fan, I’m just trash?
"Hahaha, still talking tough when you’re about to die!"
"You sickly whelp, you dare to look down on us?"
The two n in suits laughed in fury, the cruelty in their eyes flaring with even greater violence. As their gazes swept over Yuan Youwei and Mrs. Xue, they licked their lips, their faces twisting into perverted, grim smiles. Back in the Imperial Capital, cooped up with the Ying family, we have to follow a mountain of rules that tie our hands. But out here in this remote place, Haicheng, who would dare to control us!
"Lei Lang, Lei Bao, did you hear that? Even though he’s already a cripple, he still looks down on you!" Ah Lu scoffed, her eyes narrowing aningfully.
"After this is over, we’ll take those two won. They’re smoking hot!"
"Sister Ah Lu, I’ve been holding it in for too long in the Imperial Capital! It’s ti to blow off so steam!" the two n, now identified as Lei Lang and Lei Bao, sneered with excitent.
"No problem. As long as you don’t interfere with our mission, do as you please," Ah Lu nodded, taking out her phone and opening the cara app, settling in to watch the show.
"Damn it! Are you two blind? Acting as if I, Wang ng, don’t exist?" The next mont, Wang ng could no longer restrain himself and cursed as he strode forward. Lin Fan had elevated his Martial Arts Realm, and he had been itching for an opportunity to test his newfound strength. Now, these two clueless bastards had delivered themselves to his doorstep—it was a dream co true!
"Big guy, leave one for ," Mrs. Xue said, her cold, beautiful face taking on a sharp edge as she also stepped forward.
"Haha, you’re courting death!"
"Hey, little sis, go easy on . Your big brother is afraid of pain, haha!" Lei Lang chuckled as he moved to intercept Mrs. Xue.
Lei Bao’s eyes darkened as he threw a punch, charging at Wang ng!
In an instant, four fists from four people collided ferociously in mid-air!
BOOM! BOOM!
A piercing sonic boom erupted, echoing through the entire underground garage and setting off a cacophony of car alarms. The imnse Qi Force sent transparent ripples through the air, and the radiating energy made it difficult to keep one’s eyes open.
Ah Lu and Yuan Youwei quickly raised their hands to shield their faces. Only Lin Fan remained unmoved, his cold eyes fixed on the unfolding scene.
"AH—!!"
Just then, as the fighters broke apart, two screams of agony rang out almost simultaneously. Two battered figures, spewing blood, were sent flying backward, crashing heavily at Ah Lu’s feet.
"Qi Condensation Grandmasters! Two Qi Condensation Grandmasters!" Lei Lang shrieked in horror, pointing a trembling finger at Wang ng and Mrs. Xue.
"Ah Lu, you fucking tried to get us killed! What kind of garbage intel was that? His followers are Qi Condensation Grandmasters!" Lei Bao wailed, tears of pain in his eyes as he spat out mouthfuls of blood. He felt as if that one earth-shattering punch had broken every rib in his body.
"No, this is impossible! He’s clearly a cripple! How could he possibly recruit such experts?" Ah Lu, who was still holding her phone to record, stood frozen, the smile wiped from her face. She stared down in disbelief at the two n at her feet, her pupils shrinking dramatically.
"Nothing is impossible," Lin Fan said calmly. He gave Wang ng and Mrs. Xue, who were looking at him expectantly, an encouraging nod. Turning his head, he looked at Ah Lu, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "You all thought I was finished? Don’t forget, the Hulin Guard’s Qi Replenishing Pill ca from my own hands. I can create Qi Condensation Grandmasters whenever I please!"
His indifferent voice wasn’t loud, but to the ears of Ah Lu and her n, it was like a clap of thunder.
"Hahaha! Young Master, if I hadn’t co prepared today, I really wouldn’t have been able to send you to reunite with that bitch Lin Suxin!" Lei Lang and Lei Bao trembled violently, their faces ashen. Without another word, they scrambled to hide behind Ah Lu. Her own expression changed several tis before she suddenly let out a triumphant, piercing laugh. "Miss Zi Ying, it’s all up to you now! Kill them all, and I’ll double your reward!"
Turning around, Ah Lu shouted toward a dimly lit corner. She completely missed the stupefied look on Lin Fan’s face, which was slowly morphing into a peculiar expression.
Zi Ying? If I rember correctly... that should be the codena for my own Right Protector from the Human Tower, Wu Miaomiao, right?
