"Ying Zi has gone to Beihai National, and I can't leave at the moment, so I'd like to ask you to make a trip first. If I finish my business here and you still haven't found her, I'll head to Beihai National myself. By the way, her hometown is at the foot of Fuyuan Mountain in Yanjing County of Beihai National's state island."
Jiang Chen said in a deep voice.
"Okay, I'll set off right away."
Li Tianchong immediately agreed.
Sigh!
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen let out a long sigh: "I hope that girl hasn't encountered any danger, and I hope Elder Li can find her as soon as possible."
"Elder Li? The senior Li Tianchong?" Elder Bai guessed as he spoke up.
Jiang Chen nodded slightly.
"You really take good care of your own people, to actually ask a strong person at the peak of Venerable Realm to look for that girl," Elder Bai exclaimed.
Xi'er and the two others were startled and looked at Jiang Chen with astonishment. They had not expected that Jiang Chen could so casually enlist the help of a top-tier expert from the Venerable Realm, and from Elder Bai's address, apparently not someone from the Flame Dragon Group.
At this moment, the three of them revised their impression of Jiang Chen once again.
Jiang Chen said with a wry smile: "I had no choice. I didn't want to bother Elder Li, but it is Beihai National we're talking about after all, the stronghold of the Soul Devouring Group. And Ying Zi's old home has long been targeted by the Soul Devour group. If someone less capable went, they might not return!"
Ding-a-ling!
Just as Jiang Chen finished speaking, another ringtone sounded—this time it was Elder Bai's phone.
Elder Bai took out his phone with surprise, hurriedly answered the call: "Hello, Supreme Long Huang!"
"The top criminal from Sanben Country resisted during the arrest and has been killed. You can take action now!"
"Understood!"
Elder Bai responded and turned to glance at Jiang Chen, saying softly, "Young Jiang's sister Ying Zi went to Beihai National alone, and it's very likely she's in danger. He's tied up with matters in Zhudao City and can't leave. Shen Xiangtian and the others are in Beihai National right now, let's ask them to help look for her. Young Jiang can't reach Ying Zi."
"Do we even need to ask? Shouldn't we help out when that kid's sister is in trouble?"
"Got it!" Elder Bai answered once more.
After hanging up the phone, Elder Bai looked up at Jiang Chen: "Should you call Shen Xiangtian and the others, or should I?"
"You make the call, since they're currently with your Flame Dragon Group, after all," Jiang Chen replied softly.
"Oh, come on! Even though they are with the Flame Dragon Group right now, their hearts are with you. With just one word from you, they would abandon the Flame Dragon Group without a backward glance, I guarantee it!" Elder Bai quipped and dialed Shen Xiangtian.
Elder Bai, Elder Hei, and Elder Qing were the leaders of the Long Ya special operations team, and they had contact information for all members of the team.
Upon hearing this, Xi'er and the others gave Jiang Chen another astonished glance. From their conversation, it seemed Jiang Chen could influence members of the Flame Dragon Group to the extent of absolute control—with the Flame Dragon Group seemingly not minding at all!
This once again shifted Xi'er and the others' understanding of the relationship between Jiang Chen and the Flame Dragon Group. In just such a short time, their perception of this relationship had been updated several times!
"This kid..."
After the call, Elder Bai looked at Jiang Chen with an air of resentment: "I never saw them this enthusiastic when I gave them assignments. As soon as they hear it's about your sister, they shouted and ran off, hanging up the phone right on me."
"Haha!"
Jiang Chen chuckled lightly, with a trace of reminiscence in his eyes, as scenes of fighting side by side with Shen Xiangtian and the others flashed through his mind.
Ding-dong!
The sound of the doorbell rang.
Yan Hu stood up and opened the door.
"Mr. Yan Hu." Standing at the door was Sally, who had rushed over, covered in dust.
"Miss Sally, please come in!" Yan Hu stepped aside from the door and made a welcoming gesture with his hand.
Sally entered, glanced at everyone in the hall, and greeted them with a respectful bow: "I've seen Venerable Ancestor, Mr. Ha'er, Elder Xi'er, Mr. Tang, Mr. Jiang."
"Miss Sally, please have a seat," Jiang Chen said softly.
"Fa Lan Ke, you and Sally assist Mr. Jiang with the matters concerning Kenny Corporation. Elder Xi'er and I will take care of the affairs with Minghe Group," Shen Xiangtian instructed Fa Lan.
Seeing that Jiang Chen and Shen Xiangtian were no longer discussing the Minghe Group, Ha'er knew they were waiting for their show of sincerity and reminded Fa Lan before getting up to leave.
"Okay!" Fa Lan responded.
"Mr. Jiang, thank you! Mr. Tang, I sincerely apologize. We will deal with the Minghe Group matters immediately," Xi'er said gratefully, giving Jiang Chen a look before apologizing to Elder Bai again.
They all well understood that had it not been for Jiang Chen, the issues with the Minghe Group could not have been resolved so simply.
And through Elder Bai's words, they felt that once the Minghe Group was dealt with and a thorough investigation of all companies related to the Holy Court had been conducted, this matter would almost be over!
After sending Ha'er and the other away, Jiang Chen returned to his seat on the sofa.
"Miss Sally, thank you for taking the trouble to come here," Jiang Chen said to Sally with a light laugh.
Sally smiled faintly: "Mr. Jiang, there's no need for courtesy. Elder Ancestor has told me, being able to assist Mr. Jiang is my honor."
"Then I will take you up on your offer. My sister has encountered some trouble, and I need to resolve this matter here as soon as possible," Jiang Chen explained softly.
Sally quickly responded: "Mr. Jiang, please, there's no need for such courtesy. Just let me know whatever you need me to do."
"Captain Fa Lan mentioned you know the person in charge of Kenny Corporation's operations in Zhudao City. I would like to ask you, Miss Sally, to arrange a meeting with him. I'd like to have a talk," Jiang Chen spoke softly.
Sally was momentarily startled and turned to look at Fa Lan with a puzzled expression: "Is it Ni Na'er?"
"That's right, it's him!" Fa Lan nodded slightly.
Sally hesitated for a moment, then turned to Jiang Chen and said somewhat embarrassedly: "There's no problem arranging the meeting, but… if he finds out it's to assist Mr. Jiang, perhaps... he might get angry!"
"Ah?" Jiang Chen looked at Sally in surprise.
"He's one of my suitors, and… a very jealous one at that!"
Sally said somewhat sheepishly: "Because of his pursuit, everyone who likes me dares not come near me, for fear of provoking him!"
"Haha!"
Jiang Chen couldn't help but burst out in laughter, and Elder Bai and Fa Lan also looked at Sally with amused expressions. Fa Lan only knew that Sally was acquainted with Ni Na'er and seemed quite familiar, but he really did not know the specifics.
After thinking for a bit, Jiang Chen said with a light chuckle: "Still, let's arrange the meeting and explain the situation to him. That should be fine."
"Alright, I'll try," Sally agreed and took out her phone to dial Ni Na'er's number. She glanced at Jiang Chen and put the call on speakerphone.
Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, looking at Sally with surprise.
"Mr. Jiang, you should listen to his tone first. It's better that you're prepared," Sally said with a wry smile.
Jiang Chen chuckled as he glanced at Sally's phone, thinking it was somewhat exaggerated.
Soon the call was answered, and then he realized that it was not an exaggeration at all.
