Ye Xin ran out of Yang Chen's bedroom with flushed cheeks, just in ti to bump into ng Po who was casually drinking tea in the living room.
ng Po glanced at Ye Xin, pretending to be surprised, and looked at her, "Sister Xin, why aren't you asleep yet?"
"Oh! I, I'm going to sleep now." Ye Xin said as she tried to leave.
ng Po asked, "Why is your face so red, did you catch a cold?"
"No, just ran into a hooligan!" Ye Xin's face turned red with sha, and she quickly ran upstairs.
Watching Ye Xin's figure disappear upstairs, ng Po continued drinking her tea, her gaze flickering with unknown thoughts.
After a short while, Yang Chen ca out wearing a black T-shirt, got a glass of water, and sat in front of ng Po, asking, "Why aren't you asleep?"
"Can't sleep." ng Po replied in a deep voice.
"What are you worried about?"
"You!"
"?" Yang Chen frowned slightly.
"Yes!" ng Po stared at Yang Chen, lowering her voice so only they could hear, "I'm worried you'll just get eaten up by another woman right in front of !"
"Uh!" Yang Chen couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
He felt that whatever he had just done with Ye Xin inside, ng Po knew it all.
However, instead of worrying about being 'eaten up,' Yang Chen would rather hope to be 'eaten up,' but no one wanted to!
"Don't overthink it!" Yang Chen glared at ng Po.
ng Po turned her head, leaned back on the sofa, and said coldly, "The Asura Hall hasn't contacted for two days!"
"Two days?" Yang Chen frowned deeply.
The people in the Asura Hall were soldiers trained by him, with requirents stricter in so ways than those of the Dragon Tooth Squad.
The situation within the Asura Hall needed to be reported every day, it was absolutely impossible to go two days without reporting to ng Po, the one in charge.
If that truly was the case, it indicated that sothing urgent and critical might have happened in the Asura Hall, preventing them from reporting to ng Po.
With this in mind, Yang Chen furrowed his brows tightly.
It seed that once things were settled here, he would need to make a trip back.
At this point, ng Po stood up, "I'm going to sleep!"
Yang Chen looked at ng Po and nodded.
ng Po stopped at the stairway, turned around, and said to Yang Chen, "Master, thank you!"
Yang Chen was taken aback and turned to look at ng Po.
ng Po smiled softly, like a sumr flower, "Today was fulfilling, I experienced many things I hadn't felt before, thank you, Master!"
Yang Chen smiled.
ng Po nodded slightly and went upstairs.
Yang Chen sat on the sofa, pondering sothing.
After a while, Yang Chen used the landline to call Zhao Feiyang and instructed, "In three days, acquire this restaurant and turn it into a specialty restaurant. As many of the employees there are innocent, try to keep as many of them as possible; do not let them lose their jobs because of us."
"Yes!"
After hanging up the phone, Yang Chen couldn't help but sigh.
Back in middle school, Yang Chen once worked as a cleaner at a small restaurant, doing tasks like washing dishes and scrubbing pots, which the director recomnded him for. Working on weekends could earn him a decent amount of pocket money each month.
However, once, because the owner offended soone, the restaurant closed, and he lost his job.
Not only him, but also the older sister working with him, the chef, the accountant...
The chef was better off, having skills ant not worrying about finding another job.
But the older sister had two kids, relying on her ager salary. Losing her job was like the sky falling on her family.
Yang Chen understood that feeling, so he wouldn't impose it on others.
Having done all this, Yang Chen returned to his room to rest.
The night passed without further incidents.
The next day.
Yang Chen, as usual, got up early, tidied up and made so als, preparing to ditate in the yard for a while.
He no longer needed high-intensity physical training to et his needs. When he first returned to the Fla Country, Yang Chen felt uncomfortable without daily high-intensity training. Now, as he practiced, his muscles and body were naturally nourished, allowing him to maintain physical vitality without needing exercise.
After ditating for a while, ng Po ca out.
Seeing ng Po dressed as if she was going out, Yang Chen couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"
ng Po replied, "To help set up Zhao Feiyang's intelligence network; after all, they're not experts in this field."
Yang Chen thought for a mont, then nodded slightly.
"Are you all going to Jin Chen today?" ng Po asked.
Yang Chen nodded.
ng Po said, "I'll arrive before noon tomorrow."
At that mont, a car rushed to the gate and stopped.
Two people got out of the car: Purple Cultivator and Dongzi.
"Boss!" they said in unison.
Yang Chen nodded and instructed, "While helping them, do not expose your identity. The fewer people who know your identity, the better. Otherwise, if the news spreads, it could be a disaster for Ningchuan!"
As part of the Asura Hall, which battles underground organizations worldwide, they had many enemies.
After affirming their understanding, the trio got in the car and departed.
By noon.
Yang Chen, along with the mbers of the Dragon Tooth Squad, set off.
The target.
Jin Chen!
Yang Chen and Ye Xin were seated in the car.
"Dear, what do you think... what conditions will the Sect Master propose?" Ye Xin couldn't help but ask.
She was feeling uncertain.
The Sect Master was overwhelmingly strong, much stronger than they were; even if they tead up, they might not be his match.
But Yang Chen didn't think so.
The Sect Master was indeed powerful, strong enough to be daunting.
But the stronger a person in high position is, the more they fear being toppled from that towering position.
If he and Ye Xin joined forces, he was confident they could fight Kunze to a draw, or even... at full strength, both might be fatally wounded, just like when he battled Kun Bai!
Failure might an nothing to the two of them.
But to a Sect Master?
The outco would be different.
With this in mind, Yang Chen said coldly, "Don't worry, since he didn't seize the victory at Nietai Mountain but set a negotiation at Jin Chen, it shows he voluntarily gave up the advantage. As to why... we'll know when they arrive."
Ye Xin pursed her lips and said, "Then why don't you suspect he's gone back to seek help from those elders in closed life-or-death seclusion?"
Yang Chen furrowed his brow, his eyes flashing cold.
It wasn't that he hadn't considered that possibility.
Back then, Kunze alone invaded Beihai Country, entering and exiting the royal palace, slaughtering royals, and intimidating Bei Hai with great effect.
What about now?
So many teams about to encircle them on Nietai Mountain indicated their influence in the Fla Country had diminished to a certain degree. Is he planning to repeat history, bringing the elders in closed life-or-death seclusion to Jin Chen? To increase their deterrence?
Yang Chen couldn't rule out this possibility...
