Chapter 735: Chapter 707 An Qin is Captured

"Let’s not talk about this now, we need to treat her injuries first," Li Chen, overwhelmed by Yao Chou’s enthusiasm, quickly changed the subject.

"Right, right, right!" Yao Chou hurriedly agreed upon hearing what Li Chen said.

At this moment, Jiang Bingyu still had injuries that could lead to further complications if not treated promptly.

Bringing Jiang Bingyu and Yao Chou to the villa, Li Chen didn’t think twice and directly took out the Cold Pool Water and some of the remaining White Snake Meat.

All of these were intended for treating Jiang Bingyu’s injuries.

As for the White Lotus Seed, it wasn’t that Li Chen wouldn’t provide it, but Jiang Bingyu’s injuries were too severe to withstand the energy of the White Lotus Seed.

Even Li Chen himself had nearly burst after consuming two White Lotus Seeds, so needless to say, the current state of Jiang Bingyu was even more precarious.

Seeing the items Li Chen brought, a mysterious look flashed through Jiang Bingyu’s eyes.

She hadn’t expected Li Chen to give her such valuable things to heal, especially since they had been enemies not too long ago.

Yao Chou, on the other hand, didn’t think so much and happily accepted the items Li Chen handed over, causing Jiang Bingyu to roll her eyes.

"Thank you," Jiang Bingyu couldn’t help but say, looking at Li Chen.

"It’s a small matter. To tell the truth, I don’t really have much of a deep grudge against you all, and having one more friend is always better than having one more enemy," Li Chen said with a smile and a dismissive wave of his hand.

Jiang Bingyu nodded and swallowed the items Li Chen had brought, then took out a few pills from her possession and started her cultivation after putting them into her mouth.

Seeing Jiang Bingyu’s demeanor, Li Chen and Yao Chou exchanged glances and then both walked out of the room together.

"About that, Brother Li, I’m really sorry about this time," Yao Chou said, his face still showing a look of apology; it was clear that he felt guilty about his prior actions.

"No problem, I actually think you might be a good friend," Li Chen replied, shaking his head with a smile.

"Do you really think so?" Yao Chou asked, looking at Li Chen with some surprise.

The two men looked at each other for a few seconds and then burst into laughter at the same time.

Often, the friendship between men is that straightforward.

They might have started as enemies, but as their understanding of each other grew, the animosity began to fade away quietly.

At that moment, Li Chen’s phone suddenly rang.

The laughter from both men stopped abruptly, and a puzzled expression appeared on Li Chen’s face as he took out his phone.

The message was from the Nether Army under his command.

However, upon seeing the message on his phone, Li Chen’s expression gradually darkened.

"What’s wrong?" Seeing the change in Li Chen’s expression, Yao Chou couldn’t help but ask.

"There’s a bit of trouble; I might have to leave for a while," Li Chen shook his head but didn’t elaborate.

"Brother Li, since you already consider me a friend, why hide anything? I’m not blind," Yao Chou said with a hint of displeasure.

From Li Chen’s expression, he could tell that something must have happened; otherwise, Li Chen wouldn’t have that look on his face.

"This..." Li Chen’s face showed a look of difficulty.

Indeed, there had been trouble, but the person involved wasn’t someone else, it was An Qin.

An Qin had stayed in Linchuan and was no longer deliberately hiding, so the Nether Army naturally knew of her whereabouts.

And after An Qin was injured last time, Li Chen had kept people close to her to keep watch. Should anything happen, they would report to Li Chen immediately.

And this time, Li Chen indeed received a report from his subordinates in the Nether Army.

However, the news he received was far from good.

"An Qin has been kidnapped!" Li Chen grimaced, sliding his phone into his pocket.

Li Chen suddenly remembered the message An Qin had sent him previously; people from Holy Mountain had surfaced again. Could it be that they kidnapped An Qin upon discovering her connection with him?

Also, Jiang Bingyu was a Yellow Rank Master no matter how you put it. Who could have possibly injured her so badly?

The answer, of course, went without saying.

"Holy Mountain!"

Soon after, Jiang Bingyu walked out of the room.

Li Chen and Yao Chou returned to the living room and saw Jiang Bingyu, who looked significantly better. Yao Chou’s face noticeably relaxed.

"Bing Yu, are you alright now?"

"I’m temporarily out of danger, but a full recovery will take a few more days of rest. Of course, I must thank Li Chen for the water and snake meat he gave me earlier. Such Heaven’s Materials and Earth’s Treasures are rare even in our place. How did you get them?" Jiang Bingyu looked at Li Chen, somewhat curious.

"Just luck," Li Chen said with a smile, offering no further explanation.

"Right, Brother Li’s friend seems to have run into some trouble. Brother Li, why don’t you talk about it?" Yao Chou spoke up from the side.

"It’s alright, I’ll handle it myself. There’s no need for you to worry," Li Chen said with a smile, although his smile seemed somewhat forced.

"By the way, how did you get injured? And who hurt you?" After a moment’s thought, Li Chen then asked Jiang Bingyu.

A contemplative look crossed Jiang Bingyu’s face: "The one who injured me was a man who... came from Holy Mountain!"

"Holy Mountain?" Upon hearing that name, even Yao Chou couldn’t help but change his complexion, and then he bit his teeth hard.

Li Chen simply nodded calmly, as if he wasn’t surprised at all.

"He said he was looking for someone named An Ze. I told him I didn’t know the person, and that’s when he asked about you," Jiang Bingyu said, looking toward Li Chen.

"Me?" A look of realization dawned on Li Chen’s face.

With that, he could finally confirm that this newly emerged mysterious enemy was indeed from Holy Mountain.

The people from Holy Mountain were indeed terrifying.

The message Li Chen received was simple and straightforward.

It was a battle challenge from people of Holy Mountain. If he wanted An Qin to be returned, he had to agree to meet at a certain place. In the eyes of these masters from Holy Mountain, the Nether Army had nowhere to hide, so they tracked down the Nether Army and used them to send this message to Li Chen directly.

Outside Linchuan City, Forget River Mountain!

Li Chen knew that this time, he had to go.

It was not just because An Qin had helped him many times since she appeared, but also because he felt indebted to her for saving his life.

Now that An Qin was in danger, he couldn’t possibly stay away.

Although he was well aware that this might be a trap, he still had to go. This had nothing to do with anything else, it was solely to repay the debt of gratitude to An Qin.

Of course, whether there were other reasons or not, only Li Chen himself knew.

"I’ll go with you!" Just as Li Chen was about to leave, Yao Chou suddenly put his hand on Li Chen’s shoulder and said in a deep voice.
