Chapter 828: Chapter 800: The New Pattern of Linchuan

"Interesting."

Walking down the street, Yu Zhe too cracked a smile, murmuring softly, though his gaze seemed somewhat gloomy.

"My lord, why don’t we just kill him?" A subordinate beside Yu Zhe asked in a low voice.

Yu Zhe waved his hand and said, "That man’s strength is at least equal to a Mysterious Level Advanced Stage Master like myself. Although we could indeed kill him together, causing such a big commotion in this place is not ideal, after all."

"Besides, a Mysterious Level Advanced Stage Master is not easy to deal with, and if he were to fight back desperately, we would lose a lot of men. So, for the time being, it’s not worth it to risk our lives over such a trifling matter with a Mysterious Level Advanced Stage Master." A meaningful expression appeared on Yu Zhe’s face.

He might be a bit arrogant, but that doesn’t mean he’s foolish; on the contrary, he’s very smart.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have endured all these years, seizing the opportunity to ascend to the head of the Yu Family in one fell swoop.

"However, I didn’t expect that such a small place like Linchuan would have such a master." Yu Zhe said, stroking his chin.

"What’s most important right now is to eliminate the local forces here and smoothly take over control of the underground of this city. Only then can we have the energy to do other things." Yu Zhe continued: "As for that guy, let’s just leave him be for now. When we’re free, we’ll come back to deal with him!"

"My lord is wise; it is I who was shortsighted," the elder beside Yu Zhe quickly bowed and said.

"Never mind." Yu Zhe waved his hand and then asked, "By the way, how are things going with that Nether Army issue?"

"Reporting to my lord, I’ve already arranged for people to probe the other side. If everything goes as expected, they will act soon, and then we will eliminate them all at once!" The elder said solemnly, a flash of sharpness gleaming in his eyes.

"Good!" Yu Zhe nodded, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes: "This world has always been like this, survival of the fittest! Once they’re gone, we will be the new rulers of Linchuan!"

...

"Brother Li Chen, what are you doing here?"

"Brother Li Chen, how come your Kung Fu is so good? I just saw you fighting that guy, it was just like watching a martial arts film, way more impressive than our Taekwondo!"

"Brother Li Chen..."

"Alright, alright!" Li Chen looked at He Mengting beside him with resignation: "I say, Miss, can you be quiet for a bit?"

"I’m just curious..." He Mengting pouted.

"Mhm!" Li Chen nodded vigorously: "I’ll explain it to you slowly when we have a chance, okay?"

"We’re at your school now. I have some things to take care of, so I’ll be off!"

After saying that, Li Chen patted He Mengting on the shoulder, then dumped her at the school gates and sped off as soon as he stepped on the gas.

"Oh my gosh, what in the world is happening? Since when are these girls so bold, don’t they know not to just get into a stranger’s car?" Li Chen wiped his forehead, sweating profusely.

However, after recalling the earlier encounter with Yu Zhe, Li Chen’s brow furrowed once again.

"It seems that something has happened in my absence; such masters have emerged in Linchuan."

After some thought, Li Chen dialed Catherine’s number and headed straight for the villa.

"The recent situation has indeed been difficult. Those people are quite powerful and elusive; our people are simply not their match." Catherine was discussing strategies with several others.

"Could it be that our people are not their match?" Wang Qianqian was also present. As one of the earliest to be promoted to a Yellow Rank Master, coupled with her persistent and diligent training, her strength now, even among the Nether Army, could be considered among the top.

Initially, her lack of combat experience was an issue, but under Ye Tu’s guidance, she gradually overcame it. Nowadays, Wang Qianqian, aside from her working hours, spends most of her time on training.

She didn’t want to hold Li Chen back. In her view, she couldn’t offer much help to Li Chen in other areas; perhaps the only assistance she could provide was the power she had fortuitously acquired.

"The strength of the adversaries is quite formidable," Jiang Bingyu spoke up at this moment. "Even the weakest of them has strength close to that of the Yellow Rank. And on our side, it’s only the generals who possess such strength. Although the ordinary soldiers of the Nether Army do have certain capabilities, it’s still a stretch for them to deal with the opposition."

"How is Yao Chou doing?" Catherine inquired.

In this period, Yao Chou’s injuries had finally healed, and he had arrived at Linchuan.

During Li Chen’s absence, Yao Chou was the true leading general stationed there.

Yu Zhe did not dare to act rashly, mainly because of Yao Chou.

Although Yao Chou had a close brush with death and successfully broke through, he was after all only at the Mysterious Level Intermediate Stage. Against the Mysterious Level Advanced Stage Yu Zhe, Yao Chou still found himself somewhat lacking.

Fortunately, the Nether Army held an overwhelming numerical advantage.

"Yao Chou is still training. He was provoked after the last encounter with that guy," Jiang Bingyu shook her head as she said.

Originally, Yao Chou was severely injured by the Mysterious Level Advanced Stage Roger and nearly died. Now, having faced Yu Zhe, who is also of the Mysterious Level Advanced Stage, Yao Chou’s fighting spirit was fully ignited.

Hearing Jiang Bingyu’s words, Catherine couldn’t help but shake her head and chuckle: "I really don’t understand what goes on in the minds of you martial artists."

"It’s simple, becoming stronger," Jiang Bingyu laughed. "Isn’t what you’re doing also aimed at becoming stronger? It’s just that the way we martial artists become strong is different from how intellectual types like you do."

Catherine thought about it and actually nodded: "Seems like what you’re saying isn’t wrong."

Just then, Catherine’s phone suddenly rang.

"Hm?" Hearing the ringtone, Catherine was momentarily stunned; not many people knew this number of hers.

And those who could usually contact her did so via other means.

As for her personal phone number, less than ten people knew it.

"Whose call is it?" Seeing Catherine’s puzzled look, Jiang Bingyu and Wang Qianqian both looked over with some surprise.

"It’s... the boss’s call." Catching sight of the displayed number, a look of surprise appeared on Catherine’s face.

"Brother Cheen? Could it be that he’s back?" Wang Qianqian’s face had been serious a moment before, but now it reverted to its usual expression.

After answering the call and speaking for a few sentences, Catherine quickly hung up.

"Yes, the boss is back!" Catherine said with a smile.

"Now that he’s back, things will be easier," Jiang Bingyu said with a smile as well.

"So... should we go to meet Brother Cheen?" Wang Qianqian suggested.

Just at that moment, a clear and bright laugh came from the door: "No need, I’m already here."
