Chapter 649: 398, Return_2 Chapter 649: 398, Return_2 The Golden Family mbers rode the elevator upstairs and watched Luo Wanya punch in the password.
As the door opened, they were greeted by a cozy, everyday setting—a large cake sat on the dining table with a letter that read: Welco, family, to City Number Ten.
One of the Golden Family mbers dipped a finger into the cake’s cream: “This is animal cream! The Parents’ eting must have gone to quite the expense!”
Animal cream isn’t greasy; vegetable cream can be cloying. In the Outer World during the 1980s and 1990s, almost all the cream used on cakes was vegetable cream, which got sickening after just two slices.
In the Inner World, however, even eating vegetable cream was a luxury, let alone animal cream.
Luo Wanya looked around the room, excitedly lifted a piece of cake, and exclaid: “Thank you, Parents!”
The Golden Family mbers grew excited: “Thank you, Parents!”

At midnight, Luo Wanya ca alone to District Five.
He walked the streets silently, not glancing around, just walking calmly.
Before long, a young man in a white tracksuit approached Luo Wanya: “Is everything settled?”
Luo Wanya had never seen this young man before, but he knew who it was: “Boss, everything’s settled. Thank you for allowing to co to City Number Ten to lay low. The chanicus were on too close in City Eighteen; I would likely have been found if I had stayed there. As I hear it, they’ve dispatched a Red-robed Bishop, a dangerous intellect… he might follow the trail all the way here to City Number Ten.”
Qing Chen chuckled: “No worries, let him co… Do you have the guts to be the bait?”
Luo Wanya froze for a mont before realizing why his boss made him co to City Number Ten—this was ant to be the battleground between the Parents’ eting and the chanicus, a purge of the chanicus in the works!
He cautiously replied: “Being the bait is definitely okay, Boss. I, Luo Wanya, am willing to go through fire and water for the daylight.”
Qing Chen assured him: “Don’t worry, you won’t be in danger. The chanicus is backed by Jindai, Deer Island, and the Chen Clan, and now is the perfect ti to strike them amidst the Federation’s internal conflict. But I am a bit curious, how did you manage to plunder a branch from the chanicus?”
Luo Wanya whispered an explanation: “I first joined the chanicus as an undercover, and I did pretty well there, almost ready to start the examination for Red clergy… It’s just that the previous Red clergy in City Eighteen had protection from above and squeezed out…”
Qing Chen was montarily taken aback. Directly beneath the Red-robed Bishop was the Red clergy, responsible for managing a branch.
That ant Luo Wanya had a chance to be promoted directly to Red clergy but was hindered by the rampant nepotism within the chanicus, where ordinary people had no real power.
So, in a do-or-die manner, Luo Wanya took the entire branch with him, leaving that well-connected Red clergy as a re figurehead.
The Red clergy was dumbfounded at the ti; in previous power struggles, it had been sufficient to just drive away a rival and retain control.
But this ti, ousting a competitor ended up leaving him high and dry.
Moreover, a careful investigation revealed that Luo Wanya had joined the chanicus under an assud identity.
Qing Chen regarded Luo Wanya, thinking that he truly was a talent…
“Boss, what do you need to do in City Number Ten?” Luo Wanya inquired curiously.
After a mont’s thought, Qing Chen replied: “Just do as you see fit.”
In terms of expanding the family’s operations, Qing Chen really couldn’t offer Luo Wanya any valuable advice, so he might as well let the professional handle it.
While speaking, Qing Chen ntioned to Luo Wanya: “Call Qing Chen if you have any issues; he’s now an Inspector for the PCA Federation CIA’s Intelligence Departnt One, Group Seven; he can help you with a lot of things.”
“Right, right,” Luo Wanya thought to himself, no wonder Li nglin was so terrified earlier; the mbers of daylight had beco significant figures.
Not to ntion Qing Chen, even Zhang Tianzhen and Hu Xiaoniu now held considerable sway within the Heng Society.
Luo Wanya firmly resolved that he too must work hard to excel.
But just then, Qing Chen warned: “Don’t be too reckless with the expansion of the Parents’ eting and don’t apply your full brainwashing technique on these people. I hope you can exercise restraint and not turn it into another chanicus.”
Luo Wanya sobered up instantly: “Understood.”

District Three.
Yan Chunmi drove into the well-known upscale ‘Blossom Community’ of the Upper Three Districts.
Qing Xing also lived here.
Yan Chunmi, a local celebrity of City Number Ten, had purchased property to rent out as her first act after starting to make money.
Being a celebrity is a high-paying yet unstable job; you never know when you might fall from grace with no more gigs. Yan Chunmi harbored the sa worries.
Therefore, she kept buying properties—only with tangible assets securely in hand could she ease her anxiety.
Now, those properties served their purpose.
As soon as Yan Chunmi resolved to make her first major move for her new boss through Qing Xing, she imdiately moved to one of the residences she owned within the Blossom Community.
This would facilitate her covert surveillance of Qing Xing.
At this mont, aside from the three mbers of the Kite Falcon concealed even deeper, the remaining nine had comnced round-the-clock, indiscriminate, cross-tracking of Qing Xing, diligently recording his every move.
