Ah!
A shrill scream emanated from the Bloody Radiance, and Fu Zhengkun's breath suddenly wilted.
Spirit You and Qingyuan Yingzi quickly retreated. Wu Qianxun grabbed the clothes of Yan Hu and his three comrades, pulling them back to where Zhu Yan and a few others stood.
Li Wuji and his companion's faces soured as they used all their might to channel their Inner Qi. With one hand swiftly waving, they summoned Heaven and Earth Vital Energy to withstand the blast's aftermath.
Swish swish swish!
Jiang Chen's figure flickered, unleashing numerous strikes with his blade to disperse the spreading shockwaves.
Whoosh!
The Bloody Radiance dissipated, leaving behind the withered and skeletal body of Fu Zhengkun. At the moment, his vitality was extremely faint, he lay unconscious, his entire body stained red with blood!
"Spirit You, it seems you cannot accompany Zhu Yan now. Take him to Dingyun Lake Villa. I want to know everything he knows!" Jiang Chen spoke softly.
"Yes!"
Spirit You responded, lifting up Fu Zhengkun with one arm, and with a flicker of his figure, dashed toward Dingyun Lake.
"Y-You..."
Zhu Yan opened her mouth to call out but forcefully swallowed her words back down, knowing this was not the time for sentimentality!
Swoosh! Swoosh swoosh!
Li Wuji, Zhang Wushang, and Qingyuan Yingzi leaped to Jiang Chen's side.
"Mr. Jiang, this is what Spirit You and the others snatched from the enemy's hands!" Li Wuji and his companion presented the box to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen glanced at the logo on the box, his pupils contracted, and he commanded in a deep voice, "Take it to the villa!"
"Yes!" The two replied, also leaping toward the direction of Dingyun Lake.
"Young Master!" Qingyuan Yingzi stepped forward to Jiang Chen's side, bending down to whisper, "Below is a small experimental base, containing three pieces of experimental equipment. Spirit You says, they remarkably resemble Gene Potion manufacturing apparatus!"
Jiang Chen's eyes suddenly sparkled, and he flashed to the position from where Spirit You and the others had emerged.
Swish!
A cold light flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes as he fiercely struck the ground with his blade.
Boom!
An explosion rang out, and the ground burst open, revealing a dark hole.
Swoosh!
Jiang Chen leaped down headfirst into the hole.
Yan Hu and the others were taken aback for a moment, then propped themselves up and jumped to the edge of the hole, vigilantly scanning their surroundings.
Wu Qianxun flashed up into the sky, letting his aura spread out, once again enveloping the bar within it.
"Squad Leader!" A member of the Flame Dragon Group approached Zhu Yan and said doubtfully, "We're just going to watch them take everything?"
"Let them take it!" Zhu Yan said in a low voice, "Our responsibility is just to handle the aftermath."
"Is that our only responsibility?" the Flame Dragon Group member hesitated.
"What? You want to compete with Mr. Jiang for merit? What did we do? We were merely on lookout; the fighting to the death with the enemy was all done by others."
Zhu Yan glanced at him, understanding his thoughts, and reprimanded softly, "Moreover, aren't you aware that by provoking Mr. Jiang, the Luo Family directly incurred the wrath of Supreme Long Huang, leading to their annihilation?"
The complexion of that Flame Dragon Group member changed drastically, and he quickly smiled sheepishly, "I wouldn't dare!"
"Remember this! In the future, whenever there is a mission involving Mr. Jiang, all we need to do is follow orders, he leads, we support!" Zhu Yan reiterated in a low shout.
"Yes!" The Flame Dragon Group member promptly responded.
Below!
After jumping through the hole, Jiang Chen arrived in a stone chamber spanning ten meters. At that moment, there were only three large wooden boxes, each half the height of a man in the chamber. Besides them, there was nothing else. Each wooden box had a set of documents placed on top.
Reaching out, Jiang Chen picked up the three documents for a glance and his expression shifted slightly. He grabbed a wooden box and violently threw it toward the entrance of the cave, shouting simultaneously, "Catch!"
On the ground, alerted by Jiang Chen's shout, Qingyuan Yingzi snapped to attention and turned to look at the entrance.
Swoosh!
As the wooden box emerged, Qingyuan Yingzi caught it and placed it aside.
Swoosh!
Another wooden box flew out.
After three times, Jiang Chen leapt out from underground.
"Elder Wu, Ying Zi, the three of us will take these boxes back. Hu Zi, you drive back," Jiang Chen ordered, then hoisted a box and turned to look at Zhu Yan on the road, "Zhu Yan, we'll take the items. You handle things here and inform Elder Qing to visit my place."
"Okay!" Zhu Yan nodded in agreement.
Swoosh!
Jiang Chen, Wu Qianxun, and Qingyuan Yingzi each holding a box, leapt toward Dingyun Lake Villa. The boxes were too large to fit into the trunk of the car.
Four wounded members of Yan Hu drove towards Dingyun Lake Villa.
Dingyun Lake Villa!
Ye Jingyi, Gong Lin, Song Wanqiu, and Wang Zongming were seated in the villa's main hall, waiting for Jiang Chen and the others to return.
Thump!
A muffled sound emanated from the independent villa behind the main one.
Song Wanqiu and the others were startled, then they turned simultaneously to look at Ye Jingyi.
With a slight smile, Ye Jingyi said, "Elder Yao is conducting an experiment; it must have failed again!"
"Experiment... is it to counter the Gene Organization?" Song Wanqiu probed hesitantly.
Ye Jingyi, puzzled, asked, "Gene Organization? What Gene Organization?"
Gong Lin also looked bewildered at Song Wanqiu.
Song Wanqiu looked at the two women in amazement, her voice filled with incredulity, "You don't know? Don't you realize what Mr. Jiang has been doing all this time?"
"We don't know! And we don't need to know!"
Ye Jingyi gently shook her head, "As long as he's well and can come back to see us from time to time, we're content. We're too weak to help him much; all we need to do is look after the company. As for what he's doing, it's not important!"
"Look after the company..." Song Wanqiu was taken aback, then suddenly understood Ye Jingyi's and the other woman's perspective, a wave of envy washing over her heart.
These two women, unaware of what Jiang Chen was doing on the outside, didn't ask. They simply looked after these three companies.
Their purpose was not to make more money, but to preserve a peaceful sanctuary for Jiang Chen, a home that in these two women's eyes, could offer him a leisurely life once he ceased his restless endeavors.
"You... truly love Mr. Jiang!" Song Wanqiu exclaimed in admiration.
Ye Jingyi and the other woman exchanged a glance and gently shook their heads, "We love him, but the depth of our love is not even one tenth of his for us!"
"Yes, our love for him doesn't come close to the love he holds for us!"
Gong Lin took over the conversation, her eyes revealing a touch of tenderness, "Although we don't know what he's working on, we understand what his ultimate goal is!"
"What is it?" Song Wanqiu's heart stirred, and her expression suddenly intensified.
Gong Lin smiled softly, "This guy, he's actually very content with his lot. The Jiang Chen of the past was so easygoing it was irritating. We were disappointed in him because he wasn't reaching his potential."
Song Wanqiu was stunned, astonishment written all over her face.
Mr. Jiang had those times?
"But ever since Jing Yi was once hurt and driven to attempt suicide, though she didn't die, she ended up in a vegetative state!"
Gong Lin turned to look at Ye Jingyi.
A glimmer of happiness shone in Ye Jingyi's eyes.
