Chapter 626: 390, Countdown seven days_3 Chapter 626: 390, Countdown seven days_3 It looked even more like he had just finished a job.
“Alright, Boss, take your ti. My dumpling-making skills are top-notch, a far cry from the frozen food you buy from Li Dongze!” Su Xingzhi said with a beaming smile, “If you need anything, just say the word. I’ve got people in the black market of City No. 10 too.”
“By the way,” Su Xingzhi added as if he had just rembered sothing, “that Luo Wanya is one of your guys, right? The chanicus sent a Red-robed Bishop to City No. 18 to catch him, but they didn’t find him. However, you really need to warn him to be careful, Boss. The chanicus has so pretty sinister technological thods. It’s only a matter of ti before they locate him. So, before he’s well-established, it might be wise for him to lay low sowhere else.”
The ongoing struggle between Qing’s Family and the chanicus was actually always in full swing. The chanicus had elevated the matter to the highest level of crisis, treating it as if it were a dispute over faith.
What really put the chanicus on high alert wasn’t just the rapid spread of ‘the family mbers’, but the ergence of a group of key Cultivators within them.
The growth rate of these key Cultivators was so fast that even the Red-robed Bishops of the chanicus suspected that there was a financial group secretly supporting them from behind.
And the family mbers felt wronged. They were just returning to a warm family ho, after all. Who had they provoked?
Qing Chen glanced at Su Xingzhi, “Thanks for the heads-up, I’ll make arrangents.”
He actually saw Luo Wanya, a big shot in Los Angeles City, as quite talented. The chanicus, with all its might, couldn’t capture him even with a Red-robed Bishop’s personal involvent in City No. 10.
No wonder he was the one that slipped through the law-abiding Outer World.
It turned out that what he was best at was running away, staying out of the wind…
Now that the attention of the chanicus was on City No. 18, it might be better to let Luo Wanya develop in City No. 10, spreading influence more widely.
Qing’s Family certainly couldn’t directly stand against the chanicus at the mont.
But Luo Wanya from the Outer World must be no stranger to guerrilla warfare.
“By the way, which financial group is backing the chanicus?” Qing Chen asked.
Su Xingzhi thought for a mont, “That’s hard to say. It’s fearfully Jindai, Deer Island, and the Chen Clan who have a share in it.”

…
Countdown 7 days.
Qing Chen finally felt the usual urgency before a transit. In these remaining seven days, he still had far too much to do.
Including his return to the Outer World in seven days, he had new plans, like undertaking the next life-or-death challenge.
During this period, he spent every day resting in the ‘winning people over with virtue’ Mysterious World, preparing for the life-or-death challenge.
Qing Chen had stayed at D-Class for too long. His sniping skills might have given him the ability to take down B-Class targets, but now his capability had beco sort of a signature, which he couldn’t continue to use lightly.
Besides, relying too much on external factors was never a good thing.
So, as Qing Chen saw it, if his return also lasted 30 days this ti, that would be enough for him to undergo a transformation and take a long journey.
At this point, he seed to be thriving in City No. 10, stirring up the intelligence community.
But what if there had been no Shadow to help him last night? He could have been in danger.
He had to increase his strength.
He had already made preparations to face the next life-or-death challenge.
When he arrived at the Intelligence Departnt Building, Qing Chen was surprised to see Qing Yi already sitting in the office, and the detectives had even started eating the snacks he had brought with great effort.
“Huh, no bodyguards outside today. Have you learned to keep a low profile?” Qing Chen asked curiously.
Qing Yi said sowhat sheepishly, “I was just pretending to be flamboyant before to throw people off, to make everyone let down their guard against . Now that I have you, sir, I don’t need to act anymore, so as not to make the brothers and sisters of Intelligence Departnt One dislike .”
“You’re a sly one,” Qing Chen patted Qing Yi on the head, “co to my office. You can practice your cultivation on the sofa while I work. I’ll teach you the second lesson of the Breathing Technique.”
Thinking about this, Qing Chen glanced again at the intelligence officers in the large office. Most of them were Genetic Warriors who had only received one or two injections of the Genetic Potion.
The value of the detectives was actually in the uniforms they wore; their raw strength was not all that impressive.
Although Qing’s Family supplied so Genetic Potion to this division annually, not everyone could get a dose; after all, too many people from Qing’s Family were waiting for the Genetic Potion, and the Federal Group’s military was the main consur.
Therefore, Qing Chen thought that since the detectives were now loyal, it was ti to help them boost their strength a little.
Inside the office, Qing Yi said softly, “Sir, Shadow finally gave us the first minor task for the third round of the Shadow Competition.”
“Just one minor task?” Qing Chen was puzzled.
“Yes, his top associates contacted us saying that whoever wins this minor task will gain so advantage in the next one,” Qing Yi explained.
Qing Chen sighed. Last night, Shadow didn’t ntion any tasks at all.
His role as a Shadow Candidate hardly felt like that of a candidate at all.
“What’s the task?” Qing Chen asked.
“Find the mastermind behind last night’s attack on Jindai Street,” Qing Yi explained. “Shadow said that the mastermind is still at large, and many Assassins got away last night. We need to bring them all back. A total of 12 Assassins escaped, plus the mastermind makes 13. The first to catch more than six Assassins, or to capture the mastermind directly, will be considered the winner.”
“Got it,” Qing Chen nodded, “Alright, let’s begin your cultivation.”
After speaking, he took Qing Yi’s wrist, preparing to lead him into the second lesson of the Breathing Technique’s ditative state.
Qing Yi hesitated, “Wait a minute, sir. Do you have other things to take care of?”
He was thinking that Qing Chen had promised to help him win the third round of the Shadow Competition, but now it seed like Qing Chen had no intention of taking action.
Qing Chen shook his head, “No, my business can wait another two days.”
“Then, aren’t we going to catch those Assassins now?” Qing Yi asked curiously, “I’m not rushing you, sir. I an, it’s fine whether we catch them or not, I’m just curious.”
Qing Chen smiled, “What’s the rush? Let the bullet fly for a while.”
