Chapter 764: Chapter 736: Distress Signal

"Huh?"

Li Chen turned his head, only to find that the person standing at the door was Ye Tu.

"What brings you here?" Li Chen looked at Ye Tu with curiosity.

Li Chen had always treated Ye Tu as a junior.

Although Li Chen was not much older than Ye Tu, it was Li Chen who had personally brought Ye Tu to North America, and all of Ye Tu’s martial arts skills were imparted by Li Chen himself.

Thus, when alone, Ye Tu would usually address Li Chen as Teacher.

"Well, Teacher, I’ve been having some problems with my cultivation recently and can’t figure them out, so I thought I’d ask you," Ye Tu said somewhat sheepishly as he glanced behind Li Chen: "Of course, if you’re too busy, then..."

"It’s okay!" Li Chen waved his hand: "I was just about to have dinner anyway, you can stay for now, and we’ll talk later."

"All right." Ye Tu nodded.

"By the way," it seemed that Li Chen had recalled something, and he pointed to Zhong Tian beside him, saying, "This is your martial uncle."

"Ah!" Ye Tu looked in surprise at the towering figure that resembled a mountain, opened his mouth, and then quietly said, "Martial Uncle."

In the Palace of the Nether King, Ye Tu was also a law unto himself, respecting no one but Li Chen and often clashing with Ning Wangyang.

Ye Tu’s talent was indeed outstanding. His martial arts originated from Li Chen, but now, even Ning Wangyang could only be said to be on par with him.

"Nephew!" Zhong Tian looked at Ye Tu and gave a naive smile, "Brother, is this your disciple?"

"Yeah. Sort of." Li Chen nodded, then turned to look back at the two girls who had returned inside the villa and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Zhong Tian wasn’t right, but Ye Tu seemed like a good option...

At that moment, Zhong Tian seemed to remember something, fumbled in his pocket, and then pulled out a small box, handing it to Ye Tu: "This is our first meeting, and your martial uncle doesn’t have much to give. Take this as a gift from your martial uncle."

Seeing Zhong Tian’s gesture, even Li Chen was taken aback.

Zhong Tian was someone he had brought out from Panlong Village; how could he have something valuable without him knowing it?

However, the next moment, Zhong Tian opened the box, and it made Li Chen’s heart skip a beat.

The item inside was a fruit emitting a rich Spiritual Energy.

"Thank you, Martial Uncle!" Seeing this, Ye Tu also showed a face full of surprise, quickly putting the item away. He didn’t even consider refusing, clearly recognizing its value.

"Zhong Tian, where did you get this?" Li Chen asked carelessly.

"Last time, the Ginseng Doll suddenly dragged me outside, and then we found a few fruits like this one," Zhong Tian naively scratched the back of his head and spilled the beans with a smile.

"Just as I thought!" Li Chen felt another blow.

If the Ginseng Doll, who occasionally visited him, could bring back something as valuable as the White Lotus Seed, how could Zhong Tian, who was always with it, not have something good?

"Forget it, let’s go eat," Li Chen waved his hand and said: "Oh, Ye Tu, I also have something to discuss with you later."

"All right! Master!"

...

"Hurry! Hurry up!" In a dimly lit small room, a woman dressed in somewhat ragged clothes was sitting in front of an old computer, furiously pounding the keyboard.

However, despite the woman’s fast typing speed, the computer’s response time was frustratingly slow, leaving her no choice but to wait patiently for the computer to finish processing.

"Boom!!"

At that moment, outside the house, a violent shaking suddenly occurred, as if something had crashed in, accompanied by a strange hissing roar.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!!"

Next to the woman, there were no communication devices available, only this old-fashioned computer. However, the computer’s slow response time had already made the woman feel desperate.

"Click, click, click, click..."

By this time, that peculiar hissing sound had reached just outside the room, as if something had stationed itself there.

At the same time, a violent banging noise came from the door.

"Bang! Bang!!"

"Quick!!" The woman’s face showed intense anxiety.

"Crack!" As the woman hit the last key, the door behind her was abruptly knocked open.

"Thank goodness... it’s sent!" The woman fell to the ground, was dragged out of the room, but her face showed a trace of relief.

On the computer, an email was being sent to a corner of the world through a specially encrypted channel.

The content was exceedingly simple.

"Help!!"

...

Sitting in the dining area, Li Chen and Yu Yueying looked at each other.

"Officer Yu, you didn’t ask me to meet just to admire your delicate face, did you?" Li Chen said with a smile.

Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Yu Yueying’s face turned red.

But immediately, she retorted, "Isn’t it supposed to be your job, as a man, to start the conversation? It’s not very gentlemanly of you not to speak, you know?"

"So to Officer Yu, staying quiet is also a sin." Li Chen opened his mouth wide in response.

"Exactly!" Yu Yueying nodded, "I’m a police officer, I declare who’s guilty, and they’re guilty."

Li Chen shook his head and stopped bantering with Yu Yueying.

At that moment, however, Yu Yueying raised her glass, "To the police, to the military!"

From Yu Yueying’s face, Li Chen saw a faint sadness. Without saying a word, Li Chen also raised his glass.

"To the police, to... the heroes!"

Li Chen knew why Yu Yueying was sad.

Although Li Chen had brought people and reduced the casualties in the battle with the monster, many had still died under the monster’s claws and teeth, and these people were true heroes.

"By the way." After a moment of silence, Yu Yueying finally spoke, "Li Chen, since the monster incident, many from our department have started practicing martial arts, but we’ve been struggling to find a good instructor. You are so skilled, why not come and teach them?"

"No," Li Chen shook his head straightaway. He barely had time for himself, where would he find the time to teach Kung Fu?

Hearing Li Chen’s response, Yu Yueying’s face unintentionally showed a trace of regret. She knew this wasn’t something she could force Li Chen into.

"But..." Just then, a mischievous smile suddenly appeared on Li Chen’s face.

"If you alone want to learn, you could come to my house. Just teaching you wouldn’t be a problem at all."

Yu Yueying’s face suddenly showed hesitation.
