The Beauty CEO's Personal Expert

"Surprised, aren’t you? Didn’t expect us to be here?" A slightly mocking voice came through.

He Honggang squinted his eyes, nodded, and said, "I really didn’t expect you here."

"He Honggang, you’re not the only one who can scheme; we can too." Chen Younian said coldly, "I anticipated that you would have ulterior motives and intended to pocket these Soul Stones while we were unprepared. So, right after you left, we rushed here right behind you. As expected, you couldn’t resist taking action."

"Maybe you’re overthinking it, I just came to see the experimental results, is there a problem with that? Or... are you using this as an excuse to cause me trouble?"

"Hmph! Who would believe your words, He Honggang?" With that, Chen Younian pointed to the black-clad men lying around and said, "You say you’re here to check on the results, then explain to me, what’s with these people? Do you need to bring so many assassins for an inspection?"

"It’s my freedom to bring as many people as I want. If you insist on thinking I’ve betrayed you, then I have nothing to say. Since we’re ripping the mask off, there’s no need for us to continue cooperating." He Honggang extended a hand and said, "Give me the Soul Stones that belong to me, and I’ll leave right away. From now on, we won’t interfere with each other."

"He Honggang, are you dreaming?" Su Cheng’en interjected, "Since you want to quit, these Soul Stones should belong to us. You have no right to divide them."

Upon hearing this, He Honggang’s face darkened, and he said coldly, "Su Cheng’en, who do you think you are? You don’t have the right to speak here. If it weren’t for me bringing you into the alliance, you wouldn’t even have the chance to stand here."

Su Cheng’en replied with a fake smile, "Now that you mention it, I almost forgot to thank you. Don’t worry, once you’re dead, I’ll find a good feng shui spot to bury you as my repayment."

"Mr. He." At this point, Tian Xiong, clutching his injured right arm, slowly moved to He Honggang’s side with the remaining few black-clad men and whispered, "They set up an ambush, this place is not safe for long, we should leave immediately."

"Leave?" Chen Younian sneered, "Do you think you can still walk away? He Honggang, I’ve tolerated you long enough. Though we are partners, you always treated us like your subordinates, ordering us around, and everything had to follow your lead. Why?"

"Without me, how would you know the secrets of the Soul Stones?"

"So what?" Chen Younian retorted, "If it weren’t for us risking our lives to help, you wouldn’t have a single Soul Stone." As he spoke, he and Su Cheng’en began closing in on He Honggang.

Seeing their actions, He Honggang furrowed his brows, retreated step by step, then suddenly spun around abruptly and dashed straight out. Seeing this, Chen Younian and Su Cheng’en didn’t hesitate, immediately speeding up to follow He Honggang.

Among the three, He Honggang and Chen Younian had fought before; their strengths were evenly matched, with only Su Cheng’en being slightly weaker. In no time, the three burst out of the warehouse one after another. He Honggang led at the front, with Chen Younian closing in, and Su Cheng’en trailing behind. Sensing Chen Younian getting closer, He Honggang shouted lightly, channeling all his strength into his legs.

Instantly, he seemed like a blur, darting over ten meters ahead. Cloaked under the night’s cover, others couldn’t see his figure clearly.

However, just then, from behind, Chen Younian suddenly raised his arm, flinging a whip forward. Immediately, He Honggang, in mid-sprint, paused slightly, revealing his form. Seizing this opportunity, Su Cheng’en sped up, catching up to He Honggang and throwing a punch directly at his face.

Seeing himself entangled in the whip with an attack approaching, He Honggang raised his brow, his whole body shook, and his formidable Inner Strength erupted, breaking free of the whip binding him. At the same time, he brewed Qi Force, concentrating it in his right palm, meeting Su Cheng’en’s punch head-on.

In an instant, Qi Force exploded, sending both of their bodies retreating backward. Not intending to continue the fight, He Honggang turned to leave, but by then, Chen Younian had already circled around to block his retreat.

"He Honggang, prepare to die. You can’t escape today."

Looking at the encircling Chen Younian and Su Cheng’en, He Honggang said expressionlessly, "You really want to break ties without leaving any room? If I die, it won’t be good for you. Don’t forget, your enemies include not just Ling Gengqiu but also the Guardians. They are closely aligned now. If they join forces against you, do you think you two alone can withstand them?"

"That’s not your concern. We already have a plan." Chen Younian smiled smugly, "You probably don’t know yet, but there’s a new discovery in the lab. The value of those Soul Stones is far beyond what you imagine. Soon, not just Ling Gengqiu, but even the Guardians will all perish at my hands."

Hearing this, He Honggang squinted and asked, "What new discovery are you talking about?"

"Want to know? Too bad, you won’t get the chance. Attack!" With those words, Chen Younian and Su Cheng’en attacked simultaneously, closing in on He Honggang from the front and back.

Seeing the situation, He Honggang wanted to escape, but his way out was sealed, leaving him nowhere to run. In an instant, he made a decision, ignoring Chen Younian’s assault and focusing his target on Su Cheng’en. Su Cheng’en was weaker, offering a good chance to break through from his side.

Seeing He Honggang turning to rush at him, Su Cheng’en quickly understood the intention. Without hesitation, he switched to defense, blocking He Honggang’s attacks fully, awaiting Chen Younian’s support. With two successive strikes, He Honggang attacked with all his might, but Su Cheng’en was too cunning, constantly evading and delaying, refusing to engage in a frontal confrontation. Each time He Honggang planned to seize an opening to leave, Su Cheng’en would immediately step forward and entangle him, preventing his escape.

At this moment, Chen Younian was already approaching from behind. Hearing him shout, he leaped high, descending directly towards He Honggang’s head.

"Get lost!"

He Honggang roared angrily, unleashing both palms, making the surrounding air seem to freeze, carrying a powerful aura.

Bam!

With four palms colliding, the dirt underneath He Honggang’s feet immediately sank, and his arms bent slightly, seemingly struggling against Chen Younian’s force. Though their strengths were similar, attacking from above, Chen Younian had a slight advantage.
