Watching Chen Fan's figure gradually disappear into the crowd, Shao Yuandong's mood remained unsettled for a long time.

Before he met Chen Fan in person, he actually had some doubts about the other's strength.

Especially after being reminded by the other two chairmen.

It's not that he didn't trust Han Xu, since they had known each other for many years, but he felt that Qin Jin and others in Anshan City might be exaggerating.

A small town unknown to fame, which he had almost never heard of, had someone who could easily kill Beast King-level Fierce Beasts. If such a story were told, out of a hundred people, probably a hundred would not believe it.

Even when he first met Chen Fan, he had some probing intentions, wanting to see if this person was truly that formidable.

More than ten million points worth of treasures were not something to be trifled with. If lent out and not returned, the loss would be catastrophic, and if the other two chairmen found out, they would undoubtedly mock him secretly.

In the end, Chen Fan instantly took out several treasures that could only be found in Secret Realms, directly shattering his preconceived notions.

One must know that those Secret Realms were places he dared not enter lightly, since even A-level Awakeners had not survived inside.

At this moment, he no longer had any doubts about Chen Fan's strength, because anyone who could return safely from a Secret Realm, along with a large haul of loot, would find two Beast King-level Fierce Beasts insignificant.

"Chairman."

Han Xu withdrew his gaze and sighed, "Chairman Li is indeed straightforward. Over ten pieces of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures valued at millions were handed to us just like that. He didn't worry about us playing any tricks at all."

"This is a kind of confidence."

Shao Yuandong's gaze became focused, "A confidence in one's own strength."

Han Xu was momentarily stunned, then nodded.

Yes.

Li Ping did not worry about him and the chairman pulling any tricks, or even outright denying any debts.

Because his strength far surpassed anyone in the branch office, even considering everyone in Juque City, there were very few who could threaten him.

This was why he gave treasures worth two to three million points as a deposit.

If he and the chairman dared to play any tricks, it would undoubtedly lead to regret.

"Let's go."

Shao Yuandong turned around.

Next, he ought to contact the other two branch chairmen.

On one hand, to fulfill Chen Fan's commission.

On the other hand, to prove himself.

During the early hours of the morning, those two cast doubtful glances at him.

Now, who knows what they would think upon learning of what had just transpired.

"By the way, chairman."

Han Xu suddenly recalled something, glanced at the hall, and said, "Qin Jin and the others have already returned, brought by Chairman Li. Do you want to meet them?"

When Chen Fan first arrived, he received a call from Qin Jin.

But he had been too preoccupied to attend to them, letting them wait on the side.

"Oh?"

Shao Yuandong's eyes lit up.

"Where are they?"

Although he had heard from Han Xu about the midnight events in Anshan City.

Han Xu had heard it from others, and his understanding of the situation could not match that of Qin Jin and the others who witnessed it firsthand.

Of course, if he wanted to know, he could ask Chen Fan directly.

Yet he had been too shocked at the time, and seeing Chen Fan in a hurry, he might not have had the leisure to stay and converse.

"Please wait a moment, chairman, I'll bring them over."

Han Xu said urgently.

His heart was also eager to find out the details.

Soon, he brought Qin Jin and the others to the chairman's office.

"Chairman, Chairman Shao, what does he want to see us about?"

Qin Jin asked nervously behind Han Xu.

The several people following also showed signs of tension.

After all, it was the association's president, an A-level Awakener. They rarely had a chance to meet him, let alone now being specifically requested by Chairman Shao.

"Don't worry, it's nothing bad."

Han Xu patted his shoulder and smiled, "You went to Anshan City, right? Chairman Shao wants to ask about the situation and the events happening at midnight. Just say whatever you know."

"So that's it."

The several people exchanged glances.

This result was not entirely unexpected.

Han Xu led them to the office door, which was ajar. He knocked symbolically before bringing them inside.

"Chairman."

"Chairman."

They promptly greeted.

"You worked hard."

Shao Yuandong approached, his gaze soft as he looked them over, "On your way back, it must have been filled with Fierce Beasts. Was anyone injured?"

"No, no."

They shook their heads like rattles.

"Chairman, thanks to Chairman Li for bringing us back. Otherwise, we definitely wouldn't have made it."

"That's right, the number of Fierce Beasts was too many, even Commander-level Fierce Beasts could be seen everywhere. Without Chairman Li, how could we possibly be standing here? We would have been gnawed to bones by now."

"Chairman Li is truly kind. Knowing we were leaving, he wasn't angered but instead offered to escort us."
