Mu Xinlei was very grateful to Chen Qingdi.
"It’s all thanks to Mr. Chen this time. He not only saved you, but he saved me too."
"The Luo Family is in a bad situation right now, and our Mu Group was on the verge of bankruptcy."
"It was Mr. Chen who lent me money to get through the crisis. If we can finalize the business deal with your Luo Family,"
"then the other contracts are sure to be settled as well. That’s a certainty."
Mu Xinlei said.
"All in all, we’ve both benefited from Mr. Chen’s help."
"Without Mr. Chen, we’d both be finished."
Luo Longsheng said.
"Actually, I have a thought. I feel Mr. Chen is a man destined for great things. In the future, perhaps only he can control the course of events."
"His strength is extraordinary, not to mention he’s an expert in feng shui, business, and medicine. A man like that... I want to follow him for the rest of my life."
"I plan to give all of the Mu Family’s assets to Mr. Chen."
"That might be the only way for the Mu Family to have a greater, brighter future."
Mu Xinlei said.
"That idea is insane."
"You’re really going to hand over your entire family fortune to Mr. Chen?"
Luo Longsheng was still a bit skeptical.
"Of course I am."
"I suggest you consider it too, Luo."
"In the future, Mr. Chen is bound to stir things up in Jingxi."
Mu Xinlei said.
"Let’s not talk about that for now."
"We can discuss this later. For now, I need to resolve the issues at my home first."
"As for the contract, let’s talk in three days. For the next few days, I need to follow Mr. Chen’s instructions and find all these Curse Talismans in my house."
Luo Longsheng said.
"Alright."
Mu Xinlei said.
After returning to his residence, Chen Qingdi rested soundly for a full day.
The few bottles of Spiritual Energy he had obtained proved quite useful. After absorbing some, he felt much more vigorous, but it didn’t do much to advance Chen Qingdi’s cultivation realm.
He hadn’t been awake for long the next day and was still resting in his room.
Suddenly, Chen Yuan came looking for him.
Gong Liangbu and Nie Xing had never met Chen Yuan before.
When a handsome, charismatic man with unfathomable strength appeared at their door, the two of them grew a little tense.
They thought he was someone sent by Luo Yidao.
"Who are you?"
Nie Xing asked with some curiosity.
"I’m looking for Chen Qingdi!"
Chen Yuan said.
"Mr. Chen is resting."
"Please leave."
"He’s probably not seeing visitors today."
Nie Xing said.
Chen Yuan gave a faint smile, ignored him, and strode straight inside.
"Hey, I already told you Mr. Chen is resting! Why won’t you listen?"
Nie Xing said, his face etched with displeasure.
Hearing the commotion outside, Gong Liangbu also hurried out.
Seeing someone trying to force their way in, Gong Liangbu immediately became displeased.
"If you insist on forcing your way in, don’t blame me for being discourteous."
Gong Liangbu said angrily.
"Fine by me."
"I was just thinking I’d like to see what you’re made of."
Chen Yuan said with a smile, looking at them.
"Are you one of Luo Yidao’s men, here to cause trouble?"
Nie Xing asked.
"Don’t worry about who sent me."
"Come at me together."
Chen Yuan’s expression remained indifferent.
Gong Liangbu and Nie Xing exchanged a glance, then their figures flickered. Like a bolt of lightning, they dashed toward Chen Yuan, wanting to take him down as quickly as possible.
But just as they reached him, Chen Yuan simply waved his hand. A wave of qi slammed directly into them.
The two of them were sent flying.
They were no match for Chen Yuan at all.
After all, the gap between them was considerable.
Gong Liangbu and Nie Xing stared in disbelief at the man before them.
In their eyes, Chen Yuan’s realm was comparable to the Four Great Generals of the Martial Medicine Association.
In Jingxi, that level of strength was considered the ceiling—the absolute peak.
"Just who in the world are you?"
Gong Liangbu looked at Chen Yuan, his gaze incredibly grave.
"I’m not your enemy, at least."
Chen Yuan said, teasing them.
Chen Yuan knew of them; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to find this place.
When he had met with Chen Qingdi in private, Chen Qingdi had told him about Nie Xing and Gong Liangbu.
"If you don’t leave now, don’t blame us for getting rough."
"I don’t think you have any good intentions toward us."
Gong Liangbu said coldly.
"I already told you, I’m here to see Chen Qingdi."
"Now hurry up and get out of my way."
"You’re no match for me anyway."
Chen Yuan said with a sense of helplessness.
"I bet you were sent by Luo Yidao. Tell us, how much did he pay you?"
"We’ll double it."
Nie Xing chimed in.
Seeing that the argument outside had gotten out of hand, Chen Qingdi knew he had to step in.
"Alright, that’s enough arguing."
Chen Qingdi said, slowly ambling out.
"Boss, this kid is here to cause trouble."
"I think he was sent by Luo Yidao."
Gong Liangbu said aggressively.
"He’s with me."
Chen Qingdi said.
At Chen Qingdi’s words, Nie Xing and Gong Liangbu froze.
This was completely outside their expectations.
Gong Liangbu’s expression instantly changed to a broad, sheepish grin as he looked at Chen Yuan.
"And this is...?"
Gong Liangbu asked in a low voice.
"My name is Chen Yuan. I’m one of Chen Qingdi’s subordinates."
Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"I never told you about Chen Yuan, so it’s normal that you don’t know him."
Chen Qingdi said with a laugh.
"Alright, Gong Liangbu, Nie Xing, you can go about your business."
Chen Qingdi said.
After exchanging a glance, the two of them moved off to the side.
"You have something to report, I take it?"
Chen Qingdi asked, looking at Chen Yuan.
"Yes."
Chen Yuan said.
"Come, let’s talk in the living room."
Chen Qingdi said.
"Alright."
Chen Yuan nodded.
Soon, the two of them had entered the living room.
Meanwhile, Gong Liangbu and Nie Xing, still in the courtyard, were extremely curious about what kind of person Chen Yuan was.
"This Chen Yuan... how have we never seen him before?"
"He says he’s the Boss’s subordinate."
"Just who is the Boss, really?"
Nie Xing glanced at Gong Liangbu.
"I don’t know either. The Boss will tell us when he’s ready."
"In any case, it’s best not to ask too many questions about the Boss’s affairs."
"We just need to follow him faithfully."
Gong Liangbu said.
"True."
"Still, that Chen Yuan is incredibly strong."
"I wonder how many other subordinates like him the Boss has."
"We’re so lucky to have met someone like the Boss."
Nie Xing said.
"That’s because our luck is good, of course."
"Seeing Chen Yuan looking for the Boss like this, it must be something important. I hope we can be of some help."
Gong Liangbu said.
"Yeah, I want to be useful too. I’ve been cooped up at home for days."
Nie Xing said.
