Chapter 1110: Chapter 1082: Plain Clothes, Suit

Li Chen listened with a grim expression as Catherine relayed the information in his ear, and soon his demeanor calmed.

But Catherine knew that only when Li Chen’s anger had accumulated to a certain extent, would he become like this.

There was an incident at the villa neighborhood.

The Nether Army warriors who were guarding the safety around the villa neighborhood were completely wiped out, with most severely injured, and even two of them losing their lives.

Although they had made their choice when joining the Palace of the Nether King and becoming part of the Nether Army, knowing they must always be ready to sacrifice their lives at any time.

However, this doesn’t mean Li Chen could so casually discard the lives of these people.

To him, his life indeed was a life, but so were the lives of his brothers!

Over the years, although Li Chen had cultivated a habit of not showing his emotions and was accustomed to life and death.

Yet, whenever someone left, he would still feel pain—searing pain!

These were brothers who had followed him for many years!

"Is there a photograph of that person?" Li Chen asked Catherine with a calm expression.

"Alice has already managed to get it." Catherine nodded, then found a somewhat blurry, but barely recognizable photo.

Seeing the person in the photo, Li Chen nodded and then put it away.

"I’m aware of the situation. You handle those brothers well, and also keep a close watch around Linchuan. I’ll make a trip back to the villa first," Li Chen instructed.

"Do you need..."

"No need." Li Chen immediately shook his head, knowing what Catherine was about to say.

"Right now, the most important thing for them is to improve their strength and keep an eye on Linchuan, and if even I can’t handle it, what help do you think they could be by my side?" Li Chen explained.

Catherine hesitated a bit, but eventually nodded, as she knew Li Chen was speaking the truth.

"Also, notify Fan Bayin for me, you should know his current address," Li Chen directed.

"Understood." Hearing this, Catherine no longer hesitated and turned to leave.

Li Chen took a deep breath, then in a flash, he was outside the base, jumped into the car, and sped directly towards the villa area.

Was he not anxious?

He was more anxious than anyone!

But he understood that everyone else could panic, except him; in any situation, he had to remain absolutely calm.

Because he was the backbone for these people, and likewise, he was a leader, a chief.

As a leader, the most important thing is to stay calm.

"Please... please don’t let anything happen!" Li Chen gritted his teeth tightly.

He couldn’t understand how the little lackey he could easily handle before suddenly had such powerful strength.

The Nether Army warriors he stationed near the villa were not weak, and each had their own strengths, forming a tight-knit group. But even so, they were easily taken care of by this little lackey in his eyes, which meant that this incident was definitely no small matter.

"It seems someone has made a move," Li Chen thought coldly to himself, quickly coming to a conclusion.

"After enduring so long, finally couldn’t hold back, huh?"

The vehicle sped along the road.

Because the Nether Army base and the villa were at opposite ends of the city, Li Chen first had to return to the city center of Linchuan before traversing over.

However, before he even entered the city center of Linchuan, he was abruptly stopped.

Blocking him were two old men.

Suddenly, even Li Chen did not see how these two old men appeared, but they just suddenly stood in front of Li Chen’s car.

With a sudden brake, Li Chen stopped the car in place.

Opening the car door, Li Chen looked at the two old men in front, his expression becoming even calmer.

He knew very well that these two old men were definitely not some sort of scam artists. Because con artists wouldn’t be in such an almost desolate area.

Moreover, scam artists wouldn’t possess such terrifying auras!

"Who are you?" Li Chen asked lightly.

The two old men standing before Li Chen, one in a black suit, and the other in white traditional clothing, appeared extremely mismatched, yet standing together, they exuded an undescribed intimidating presence.

As if an animal facing its natural enemy!

Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, the suited old man stayed silent; the robed old man, however, chuckled softly and then spoke, "You needn’t worry about who we are, you just need to know that you need to come with us."

"Come with you? And why should I?" Li Chen tilted his head as he said.

"Why?" The suited old man let out a cold smile, "Because of this!"

No sooner than the words had finished, the suited old man lifted his hand slightly towards Li Chen with a swift motion.

With just that slight raise of the hand, Li Chen felt a strong sense of threat.

Almost without thinking, Li Chen’s body suddenly retreated a certain distance.

A loud boom erupted from where Li Chen stood moments ago.

Li Chen lowered his gaze.

Where he previously stood, deep marks appeared, and on those marks, a faint gentle breeze could still distinctly be seen swirling.

Wind attribute Earth-level expert!

Moreover, the power of this suited old man was not just a level stronger than Zi Zhao!

The marks on the ground were actually cut out by a Wind Blade!

And this terrifying mark was caused by just a mere lift of his hand.

Powerful!

That’s Li Chen’s first impression, he could sense that the cultivation of this suited old man was definitely higher than his own. And as for that robed old man, his depth was unclear as well, but by Li Chen’s estimation, they were at least comparably strong.

Li Chen’s expression turned even more grave.

Against one person, maybe he could gamble everything, but against two strong experts with higher cultivation than himself, Li Chen did not believe he stood much chance of winning.

And even if he somehow managed to win, he would at least be severely injured.

At that point, whether he could return to the villa was another question altogether, not to mention the unknown crisis awaiting at the villa.

"Damn it!" Li Chen gritted his teeth hard, the muscles on his cheeks bulging from the intense pressure.

He didn’t know if these two were in cahoots with the guy who went to the villa or not, but Li Chen could be sure, these two held no good intentions toward him.

If he allowed himself to be taken by them, even his life and death might no longer be within his control.

With a turn of his palm, Red Moon appeared in his hand, Li Chen’s expression was uncertain.

"To gamble or not to gamble?"
