Chapter 208: Chapter 186 I Will Kill You!

Watching these people leave in a flurry, Li Chen returned to the villa, and at this time, Lin Yi had also come downstairs.

"What happened?" Lin Yi asked curiously.

"Nothing much, just went out to enjoy the view," Li Chen chuckled, "Hey, Aunt Wang, is breakfast ready? I’m starving."

Seeing Li Chen steer the conversation away, Lin Yi was somewhat puzzled but didn’t press further.

After breakfast, Li Chen went to the company with Lin Yi. Upon arriving, Li Chen headed straight for his laboratory to continue his research on Z substance.

He was feeling a sense of urgency now. Last night’s event had taken him by surprise. He hadn’t expected Li Xinshan to return, but no matter what, Li Xinshan had to die, even if it meant offending the Li Family.

He anticipated that the Li Family would not let him off easily. The priority was to regain his strength and suppress the injuries inside his body so that he could stand a chance against numerous opponents.

If it weren’t for his injuries, Li Chen’s power would truly be that of the King of the Netherworld, the third person on the Main God Ranking.

Fortunately, Li Chen had only dealt with some small fries recently. If he were to encounter experts from the Main God Ranking with his current strength, he would definitely struggle.

Wang Qianqian was also helping in the laboratory. In fact, she was still working at the Fragrance Laboratory, but whenever there was work in Li Chen’s lab, she would immediately come over, which warmed Li Chen’s heart.

On her upper body, Wang Qianqian wore a black suit jacket, with a white shirt underneath, and a touch of light makeup on her face.

Wang Qianqian, seeing Li Chen’s gaze on her, felt a surge of delight. A woman dresses for the man who pleases her, and she had dressed this way for Li Chen. If he didn’t look, it would all be for naught.

"Qianqian, go bring me the straw," Li Chen said.

Li Chen quickly traced his fingers a few times over Wang Qianqian’s arm.

Wang Qianqian felt it and realized that the two characters Li Chen had written were "toilet!"

Meanwhile, as Li Chen joyfully conducted his research on Z substance, stealing little bits of pleasure from Wang Qianqian, over at the Yanjing Li Family.

"What?"

Patriarch Li Zheng, hearing the news over the phone, seemed completely stunned, as if he couldn’t believe it.

"What did you say?" Li Zheng asked again, his voice trembling.

"Patriarch, the Young Master, he’s been murdered."

The person on the other end was extremely cautious.

"Who killed him?" Li Zheng suppressed his emotions and asked in a steady voice.

"Li Chen, in Linchuan."

"Crack"

Enraged, Li Zheng smashed his phone to pieces, then swept everything on the desk onto the floor, overturned the desk, and, still not feeling appeased, kicked over a vase that stood in front of him.

"Li Chen, I will kill you!"

Li Zheng roared, and the Li family disciples standing nearby didn’t dare make a sound. It had been a long time since they had seen the patriarch this angry.

"Go, call a family meeting!" Li Zheng ordered the Li family disciples behind him. Hearing this, the disciple quickly exited the room.

Before long, the Li Family’s second emergency meeting was convened. The first meeting had been called when Li Xinshan was carried back to Beijing, and now, just a few days later, a second emergency meeting was underway, and both times, because of a man named Li Chen.

"Xinshan has been killed." Li Zheng looked around at those present, all of whom were the elders of the Li Family.

"What? Xinshan is dead?"

"Who killed him?"

The people seated were taken aback and then burst into anger. Li Xinshan was Li Zheng’s son, and a potential future patriarch chosen from among several candidates. Xinshan’s death meant a blatant affront to the Li Family!

Being slighted in such a manner was intolerable for any family, let alone the pain of losing a son!

In a moment of collective rage, everyone clamored for the blood of the killer.

"The murderer is Li Chen, the same young man we ambushed last time," Li Zheng spoke again, and with these words, the assembled members fell silent.

After a pause, someone spoke, "Patriarch, the people backing that young man are not to be trifled with."

"But now that they’ve pushed us to this point, can we back down?" Another person frowned, "Worst comes to worst, it’ll be a fight to the death. Do they really think the Li family is so easily bullied?"

The mention of the people behind Li Chen caused the faces of the Li family members to darken. Those present knew about the incident that year and were all the more aware of the terrifying might of the old men behind Li Chen.

"No matter what, Li Chen must die!" Seeing that a debate among those present was on the verge of breaking out, Li Zheng spoke up, his eyes full of killing intent.

"Those old fools are indeed formidable, but in a month, a major event will take place, and those old men definitely won’t have the time to intervene. That will be the moment when Li Chen meets his death!" Li Zheng announced.

Although the people present did not know what major event Li Zheng was referring to, seeing his determination to kill, they all remained silent. After all, if the whole Li family were to act, they had never feared anyone.

...

Li Chen sneezed and couldn’t help but feel puzzled. Who is thinking about me again?

"Qianqian, go get the sample I was working on earlier," Li Chen said.

Meanwhile, on the subject of the Z substance, Li Chen had made progress again. Looking at the sticky substance in his hand that was half black and half yellow, Li Chen frowned. It seemed to be better than the last time, but it was still far from ready for actual use.

The development of this Z substance was proving to be tricky for Li Chen. If only he had a little more time, but recent situations did not afford him that luxury.

An entire morning passed busily, and it was time for lunch. Li Chen looked at Wang Qianqian not far away, intending to invite her to dine together, when suddenly, several female colleagues ran over cheering.

"Qianqian, let’s go eat. I’ve found a really good Western restaurant," they said.

Then, Li Chen watched as Wang Qianqian was led away.

Alright, Li Chen thought speechlessly. I’ll just go eat out by myself.

Exiting Lin’s Group and arriving in front of a restaurant, Li Chen was about to enter when suddenly, his face froze. In an instant, the energy from his injury surged up like a tidal wave, threatening to engulf him completely.

Cold sweat broke out on Li Chen’s forehead. Despite the scorching heat outside, his body felt as cold as negative thirty degrees in winter.

Just when it seemed he would lose control, Li Chen suddenly remembered the pill Third Grandpa had given him. He quickly took it out and swallowed one. Instantly, as the pill took effect, the previously surging energy of his injury paused, and then slowly receded.

Whew!

Li Chen exhaled a long breath, thankful to have regained control. Otherwise, things could have turned quite bad.

As the Pill’s effects continued to disperse, Li Chen started feeling warm, and the passing women seemed to exude an extra charm, causing him to take a second glance.

Damnit, I almost forgot the pill also acts as an aphrodisiac, Li Chen cursed inwardly, sensing trouble. He decided to find a place to expel the effects of the medicine properly.

By chance, Yu Yueying was on patrol and happened to come by. She noticed Li Chen’s flushed appearance and became curious.

"What are you doing?" Yu Yueying slapped Li Chen on the shoulder. When he turned around, it gave her quite a shock.

Li Chen’s face was beet red, his neck was flushed pink, and his breathing was heavy.

"What’s wrong with you?" Yu Yueying asked, confused. "You look like..."

However, before she could finish her sentence, Li Chen suddenly embraced her tightly with both arms.

"Ah, what are you doing?"

Yu Yueying was startled and was about to say something when Li Chen leaned in to kiss her!

In an instant, Yu Yueying was stunned, her eyes wide in disbelief.

Li Chen had taken liberties with her before, but never as boldly as this. This time, his actions were downright forceful.

Feeling Li Chen’s restless movements and his intention to go further, Yu Yueying became angry. Did he really think of her as that kind of person?

She stomped hard on Li Chen’s foot, which made him yelp in pain. Seizing the opportunity, Yu Yueying broke free from his embrace.

"Li Chen, I was wrong about you," she said loudly to Li Chen.
