Chapter 586: 586 Sister Lan Takes Action! Shenzhou Martial Arts【2 More Chapters】

Global Center certainly used such despicable means, immoral yet habitual.

Once, a company in the electronics industry belonging to the Starman Federal Empire had, in just a few short years, developed new technology, quickly rising to the forefront of the industry.

Global Center extended an invitation to this company’s leader, hoping they would join Universal Electronics Company, but they were ultimately refused.

However, not long after, the company’s leader and a dozen senior executives, including several key researchers, all disappeared within the same time frame, barely spaced ten days apart.

With no one at the helm, the large company direly fell into paralysis and was soon swallowed up by Universal Electronics Company.

This had all happened last century, yet to this day, the truth behind these events remains unveiled.

Some say it was a conspiracy by Universal Electronics Company, aiming to cement its dominance in the electronics field by kidnapping these individuals.

As for whether these people are dead or alive, it no longer matters, since Universal Electronics Company had already obtained what they wanted.

Looking back in history, such incidents had happened more than once.

Even if some were aware of the truth, they could only simmer in silent fury.

With the current strength of Global Center, even if Shenzhou Land Continent, Northern Lands, and Starman Federal Empire combined their forces, it was merely a struggle.

Zhou Yixiang spoke too quickly, and Shen Xinghe did not quite catch it. Seeing Ye Wanlan stand, she hurriedly stood up as well, "Chairman Ye?"

"Do not go out, everyone stays together, no one is allowed to be alone," Ye Wanlan commanded, "The most crucial task these next few days is not to ensure the Global Ceremony goes smoothly, but to ensure your safety."

"I understand," Shen Xinghe thought of some incidents she had witnessed at Global Center, her expression growing solemn, "We will not leave the room or let anyone in until Chairman Ye returns."

Ye Wanlan nodded, "Yixiang, you stay here too, do not move."

Ye Wanlan concealed her identity as the chief jewelry designer for Pulling the Sky Company to protect Zhou Yixiang.

However, since Zhou Yixiang and Jiang Xulin had both attended a fashion show together, some senior executives from other companies remembered her.

After giving her instructions, Ye Wanlan did not take the door; instead, she jumped onto the nearby windowsill and leaped down.

This action shocked Shen Xinghe deeply.

"Chairman Ye!" She too hurried forward, just in time to see Ye Wanlan gracefully land.

Shen Xinghe swallowed the words, "This is the seventh floor," and could not help but rub her eyes, wondering if her vision was failing her.

Eventually, her mind was occupied by four words—

Shenzhou Martial Arts.

While Shen Xinghe herself had learnt some martial arts from a martial arts instructor for her acting, what Ye Wanlan had just displayed seemed straight out of a martial arts novel.

**

At this very moment, in a pure white room.

This room only contained a long table and several chairs, with no windows. The only door was firmly shut, guarded by elite mercenaries, making entry and exit exceedingly difficult.

Fang Qingli was bound to a chair, her hands and feet tied, rendering her immobile.

"Director Fang, I had praised you before, saying you indeed possess a general’s demeanor in the business field," Brad shook his head and sighed, "It’s a pity, though, this calf is too young, not quite understanding the evil of human hearts."

Here was their turf, and they certainly had ways to take Fang Qingli away while she lowered her guard.

Fang Qingli took a deep breath, "Randomly kidnapping people, is there no law anymore?"

"Law?" Brad was momentarily stunned, then burst out laughing, taunting, "Director Fang, it’s your second time at Global Center, how do you not yet understand the rules here?"

Here at Global Center, whoever has the hardest fist, the solidest backing, truly holds the law.

Fang Qingli just coldly watched him, "What do you want?"

"Director Fang is a smart person, no need for us to waste words," Brad clapped his hands and smiled satisfyingly, "Our demand is simple, have Pulling the Sky Company merge into MN Group."

Fang Qingli scoffed, "Daydreaming, wishful thinking indeed."

Hearing this, Brad was not annoyed, "If Director Fang is unwilling, that’s fine too. You can even stay here, we will absolutely not skimp on your three meals a day, but you can only leave once Pulling the Sky Company has been absorbed by us."

"Okay then," Fang Qingli calmed down, "I’ll just stay here, and I’ll see how you manage to take over Pulling the Sky Company."

Brad frowned.

Her words made it seem like the mysterious owner behind Pulling the Sky actually existed?

"Don’t worry, Director Fang, your colleagues will join you soon," Brad’s gaze darkened a bit, "I’m eager to see how Pulling the Sky will survive without you, without the chief designer!"

To his disappointment, Fang Qingli did not show any signs of fear or weakness; she simply closed her eyes and ignored him.

Brad tapped on the table and commanded, "Before today ends, I also want to see Jiang Xulin and Zhou Yixiang."

Once he had these three pillars under control, he couldn’t believe that Pulling the Sky could cause any more trouble!

"Drip, drip, drip—"

Ye Wanlan looked at the red dots appearing on her phone.

She had placed trackers on Fang Qingli and the others to prevent them from danger at the Global Center.

The trackers had lost signal previously, clearly being jammed.

After she hacked the firewall of the opponent, she recaptured the signal.

Found them!

Ye Wanlan lifted her head and quickly jumped over the high wall in front of her, entering the underground building in an eerily agile manner.

In her past life, she couldn’t gather inner strength and couldn’t practice ninety-nine percent of martial arts, but qinggong was her strongest skill.

Whether it was escaping or chasing, she was very experienced.

Ye Wanlan turned around, checked the tracker again, and confirmed that Fang Qingli was abducted into the core of this underground building.

Around her, there were fifty mercenaries guarding.

If she wanted to eliminate these mercenaries quietly and swiftly...

Ye Wanlan’s eyes narrowed.

Indeed, poison was the most effective.

Colorless and odorless smoke spread in the air.

The mercenaries didn’t even have time to react and fell one by one with a "thud, thud."

Besides the mercenaries, there was also a laser net.

Ye Wanlan easily avoided it and headed towards the main gate.

Inside the room, Brad was getting impatient.

Fang Qingli is as stubborn as can be!

But since they still hadn’t extracted any valuable information, killing Fang Qingli now would ruin everything.

"Oh, right, I’ve heard that you Shenzhou people have something called martial arts?" Brad’s eyes filled with mockery and ridicule, "Too bad, though, martial arts might be strong, but three hundred years ago, they were beaten down just like a drowning dog, and what’s even more unfortunate is that your martial arts faded away, hahahaha—"

Fang Qingli clenched her fists, truly triggered by anger now.

Without pretense, the establishment and development of the Global Center were built upon the corpses of the Shenzhou Land Continent from three hundred years ago.

Yet, they treated Shenzhou’s pain as a joke, ruthlessly unveiling it time and time again.

"Director Fang, there’s an old saying in Shenzhou that knowing the current affairs is wise." Brad continued, "Even if Shenzhou is reviving, it still cannot hide its decline; it’s better to join our Global Center, together—"

He didn’t finish his sentence because an additional person appeared in the white room.

"Is that so?" a voice faintly spoke from behind him, "Well, today, I invite you to taste the flavor of Shenzhou martial arts, how about that?"

Fang Qingli opened her eyes in surprise and blurted out, "Sister Lan?!"
