Chapter 218: Chapter 214: Qianzhou Martial Alliance

"Everyone should go back and rest," gently said Long Chen. "Take care of your personal affairs tonight as tomorrow morning you must come here early and once here, you can’t leave at will. Tonight is your last chance to deal with personal issues. For those of you who have boyfriends, communicate well with your boyfriends; for those who don’t, explain things clearly to your family to prevent them from worrying about you. How you explain is up to you."

After finishing, Long Chen turned and walked away.

Upon seeing Long Chen leave, Qiu Xin said, "Sisters, I feel it’s the best destiny for us. As you can see, President Long is certainly not an ordinary man. As long as we work hard and stay loyal to the company, we will surely have a bright future.

I won’t say more; let’s meet here tomorrow."

"Sister, see you tomorrow."

...

Outside, Long Chen went to the company to pick up Xia Ling from work.

In the car, Xia Ling talked a lot with Long Chen, mostly about recent information on the Martial Arts forces entering Qianzhou.

"The Nangong Family has suffered setbacks, and they likely won’t make a move for a while since they are informed. Moreover, I hope they didn’t come specifically targeting us at Dragon Doctor; otherwise, I’ll make them deeply regret it," Long Chen said calmly, exuding great confidence.

Of course, Long Chen had good reason to be confident.

"Let’s play it by ear. Since the enemy is overt and we are covert, we’ll have to deal with things as they come; just be cautious," Xia Ling said.

"Don’t worry too much. Just treat it normally, and don’t put too much pressure on yourself. I’m here," Long Chen reassured her softly.

"Got it," responded Xia Ling with a slight nod.

Having Long Chen with her indeed made her feel very secure.

This sense of security was something no one had ever given her before.

"By the way, during your temporary stay at my house, you, Churan, and Yuechan, the three of you must get up at six every morning starting tomorrow," Long Chen suddenly said.

"Ah, why? I need to sleep until eight to perform well at work; otherwise, I’ll feel drowsy," Xia Ling complained with a frown.

"That won’t happen," Long Chen said. "Starting tomorrow morning, I’ll personally train you to turn each of you into experts so that I can rest assured."

"Don’t joke," Xia Ling said. "Even if I truly wanted to learn martial arts, I’m past the age to learn anything significant now; don’t waste your time on me."

"Nonsense," Long Chen said. "I have my methods. What you need to do is cooperate."

"Long Chen..."

Xia Ling tried to act coquettishly to avoid getting up early.

She really didn’t want to wake up at six, which would be torturous for someone who likes to sleep in.

Her act of coquettishness, however, was ineffective on Long Chen.

Long Chen had already made up his mind to train Li Yuechan, Zhao Churan, and her properly.

Seeing no chance to change his decision, Xia Ling could only pout, feeling very aggrieved.

Long Chen seeing this, smiled bitterly, "I also hope that you all can fend for yourselves. After all, I can’t always be by your side. Once you achieve something, if there’s danger, maybe you won’t even need me to rush over; you might handle it easily."

"It’s not that I don’t want to learn," Xia Ling said, "but I don’t understand anything about martial arts; I really can’t learn it. It requires innate talent."

The thought of learning martial arts overwhelmed Xia Ling.

"Normal learning certainly won’t cut it, which is why what I’m going to teach you isn’t ordinary martial arts but a higher, more profound mystery," Long Chen chuckled.

"What is it?" Xia Ling asked curiously.

"Let’s keep it a secret for now; I’ll tell all of you tomorrow morning," Long Chen chuckled.

Meanwhile, at the Yang Family, a family meeting was being held.

Yang Shenhuai and Yang Ji, along with Yang Su and some upper echelons of the Yang Family, were gathered in the meeting hall.

"You must have heard," said Yang Shenhuai with a low voice, "recently, many Martial Arts families and masters have entered Qianzhou. They are discussing establishing a Qianzhou Martial Alliance and plan to select an Alliance Hierarch through martial contests to oversee the situation."

"Grandfather, are you interested in the position of Alliance Hierarch?" Yang Su asked.

"Not interested," Yang Shenhuai replied. "I’m just thinking that if they successfully form an alliance, it would be unfavorable for us."
