Chapter 714: Chapter 686 The ’Gentle’ Fat Man

"Let’s rest for a bit before proceeding," Lin Yi said.

Having killed the Fire Fox, Li Chen had also sustained some injuries. Though the wounds were minor, Li Chen knew that within the Relic, there might be even stronger enemies waiting for him. When the time came, these small injuries could become a burden.

He didn’t know how far he could go, but he did know that no matter the distance, he was determined to find Wang Qianqian.

"Are you alright?" An Qin asked with a frown, looking at the injuries on Li Chen’s shoulder and arm.

"Don’t worry, just need to treat them," Li Chen replied with a smile. As he spoke, he took out the Fire Lotus and said with a grin, "This thing was obtained by both of us, I’ll share the treasure with you when we get back."

"Can’t you be serious for a minute? What do you mean by treasure sharing?" An Qin rolled her eyes.

"This was practically grabbed by force, so of course it’s treasure sharing. Oh, and that Fire Fox seemed like a valuable catch too, why not bring it back and stew it?" Li Chen added.

Hearing Li Chen making jokes, An Qin knew he must be alright and didn’t bother responding further, instead she sat down to start restoring her True Qi.

Along the journey, she had expended quite a bit of energy, and now it was time to rest.

The soldiers of the Nether Army remained silent at the side. As they did not cultivate True Qi, their condition was somewhat better, having only spent physical strength. They just needed to eat something and rest for a bit to recover.

"Sir, we have just discovered some blood trails up ahead," a Nether Army Warrior reported to Li Chen after scouting the area for a while.

"Blood trails?" Li Chen’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he quickly went to the spot pointed out by the Nether Army Warrior.

There were indeed some dried bloodstains.

After a moment of consideration, Li Chen decisively said, "Let’s go, let’s move on!"

Having rested for a while, everyone had mostly recovered. Seeing the bloodstains, Li Chen worried about Wang Qianqian, so he didn’t delay any longer and led the group to continue their journey.

...

By this time outside, a whole night had passed.

Early in the morning, Lin Yi drove to the company.

However, before she could walk into the company, a man came over from the side as if he had been waiting specifically for Lin Yi; before she stepped into the company, he stood in front of her.

"President Lin, what a coincidence," the man said, lifting the corners of his mouth in a smile he thought was charming.

"President Song, what are you doing here?" Lin Yi frowned upon seeing the man.

"I’m here specifically to wait for President Lin," Song Zhe said with a chuckle, in response to Lin Yi’s comment.

Song Zhe was someone Lin Yi had met on a business trip. From the first time he saw Lin Yi, he felt captivated.

Unfortunately for him, Lin Yi had been indifferent to his presence.

This did not discourage Song Zhe; instead, it fired up his desire to conquer. He had made up his mind that he must have this woman, and to that end, he did not hesitate to follow her to Linchuan.

All for Lin Yi.

"President Song, our business negotiations are already over, and now it’s my personal time. I need to go to work, so please don’t block my way!" Seeing Song Zhe standing in her path, Lin Yi’s frown deepened.

"Ah, President Lin, you can’t say that..."

Song Zhe was just about to speak when he saw Lin Yi beckoning toward the front.

Suddenly, Song Zhe felt the ground begin to shake.

The figure that appeared beside him was a ’giant’ nearly twice his size.

"Zhong Tian, I need to go to work now, but this gentleman is blocking me. Please handle it," Lin Yi said with an uncontrollable smile on his face as she saw Zhong Tian.

She knew about this junior of Li Chen, and she was also aware that although Zhong Tian looked simple and honest, his strength was actually quite formidable.

"Okay!" Zhong Tian grinned at Lin Yi in a simple and honest manner, nodding in agreement.

"Fatso, who are you?" Seeing the giant frame, Song Zhe almost laughed out loud. Just how was this ’ball’ supposed to stand steadily, let alone handle him?

"I’m the security here. Right now, you are obstructing our company’s president from going to work, so I have the right to warn you, don’t harass our president again!" Zhong Tian declared with righteous indignation.

"Oh! Wouldn’t have guessed. You, a security guard?" Looking at Zhong Tian, Song Zhe couldn’t help but sneer.

"President Lin, your company’s security is really unreliable, isn’t it? Want me to find some decent security guards for you? Don’t worry, you don’t have to be polite. If we become one family, what’s mine is yours, isn’t it?" Song Zhe looked at Zhong Tian mockingly, then turned his head and smiled at Lin Yi.

However, after Zhong Tian appeared, Lin Yi did not glance at Song Zhe again and turned to walk toward the company.

"Hey! President Lin!" Seeing Lin Yi about to walk away, Song Zhe couldn’t help but want to go forward to stop her.

But a hand large as a palm-leaf fan blocked his way.

"I’m sorry, no idle people allowed." Zhong Tian still wore a gentle expression, as if he hadn’t heard Song Zhe’s mockery.

"Get out of the way, you dead fatty!" Seeing Zhong Tian blocking him, Song Zhe finally lost his temper and cursed as he tried to barge in.

"Bang!"

The next second, the palm-leaf fan-sized hand he had dismissed slapped across his face, and in an instant, Song Zhe was sent rolling out the company’s gate, hitting his car parked on the side.

"Ugh..."

Having hit hard, Song Zhe couldn’t speak for a long time.

Even with Zhong Tian holding back, it was enough to give him a rough time.

Most notably, on his face, several clear finger marks appeared. And he, completely dazed, didn’t come to his senses for a long while.

At that moment, Song Zhe’s bodyguards, who had been crouching to one side, also hurried over, but before they could get close to Zhong Tian, they were already intimidated by his imposing figure.

"Let’s go!"

With some resentment glancing at the departing figure of Lin Yi, Song Zhe didn’t linger and got straight into the car, taking his people and leaving the place.

In his eyes, this ’fatty’ was surely prepared by Lin Yi, all to teach him a lesson.

"Damn woman!" In the car, Song Zhe punched the windshield next to him hard but ended up gasping in pain.

"I will have you!" Song Zhe whispered, pulling out his phone and dialing a number.

"Don’t worry, by then, I’ll make you obediently become my woman slave!"
