Invincible Immortal Chapter 195: Cui Fengyi’s Reward

Chapter 195: Chapter 195: Cui Fengyi’s Reward

Jiangbei!

Zhou Mansion!

Zhou Shihao and his entourage had just returned when they received the news.

"Mr. Zhou, Zhang Qian is dead, Rose has been rescued!"

Upon hearing the news, Zhou Shihao frowned, and Wan Chuanxiong’s face turned ugly.

Zhang Qian was Wan Chuanxiong’s proudest disciple.

They originally thought that having Zhang Qian take control of Rose might co in handy when dealing with Su Luo later, but to their surprise, Zhang Qian had died.

"Killed by Su Luo?"

Wan Chuanxiong asked in a deep voice.

"Not sure! But, he seems to have been killed without any resistance!"

Murderous intent filled Wan Chuanxiong’s eyes, "Su Luo, I will definitely make you pay the price."

Zhou Shihao’s expression also darkened.

The fact that Rose had been rescued wasn’t much of an issue, but Zhang Qian’s death was a significant loss for him.

In recent months, his losses had been extrely heavy.

One after another, Xiao Da, Bai Yifeng, Zhang Qian—these three Inner Strength Experts, had all died at Su Luo’s hands, not to ntion Lei Yanwu, the Martial Arts Grandmaster.

This ant a more than half reduction in the martial force at his disposal.

And all of this was because of Su Luo.

With so many of his confidants lost, he would eventually find himself in a position where he had no one to rely on. After all, not everyone can be trusted as a close aide.

But Zhou Shihao was deep in thought. He glanced at Shen Qingzhi, considering that he might soon truly enter the ranks of the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce, assuming a significant role. By then, commanding power and surrounded by strong individuals, he could slowly cultivate so loyal followers. Although his desire to kill Su Luo had intensified, he remained rational and did not show his emotions too much.

"Su Luo going to rescue Rose does further confirm sothing for us—Su Luo values relationships!"

"Have soone keep a close watch on the people around Su Luo. They will all beco weapons we can use against him!" Zhou Shihao ordered.

Valuing relationships!

This was going to be a deadly weakness for Su Luo!

Afterward, Zhou Shihao took out his phone and made a call, "Elder Wan, I need Grandmaster support!"

"How many do you need?" Elder Wan’s voice ca from the phone.

Zhou Shihao thought for a mont and said, "Just one. Ideally a Fourth-Grade Grandmaster, or even a Fifth-Grade Grandmaster."

He did wish for more Grandmasters to co over, but if he requested several Grandmasters just to deal with an Inner Strength Martial Artist, and the news reached the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce, it would make him look incompetent, which would be disadvantageous for his future developnts within the chamber.

After all, others wouldn’t consider whether Su Luo could turn invisible or had the power to kill Grandmasters with his Inner Strength; they would only speculate based on appearances.

"Fine, I’ll send my wife over to help you this ti," Elder Wan said. Zhou Shihao might very well beco an elder in the future, and Elder Wan too wanted to forge a closer relationship with Zhou Shihao to solidify his position in the council of elders, which was also the reason for his closeness to Zhou Shihao. This opportunity served as a chance to strengthen their bond further.

"Thank you, Elder Wan," Zhou Shihao involuntarily showed a hint of a smile.

Elder Wan wanted to woo him, and he wanted to secure his relationship with Elder Wan as well. Moreover, having t Elder Wan’s wife once before, he knew she was a Fifth-Grade Grandmaster. With her support, he felt assured that everything was foolproof.

...

The next day.

Morning.

Su Luo arrived at the Jiangbei Martial Association.

"Brother Su Luo, you finally ca!" Upon learning of Su Luo’s arrival, An Ran ran over imdiately to greet him, taking Su Luo straight to Cui Fengyi’s office.

"I’m glad you’re safe," Su Luo said with a smile upon seeing An Ran.

When he left Jinling, it was a perilous departure, and he had split up with An Ran. Later, through ssages, he knew An Ran had returned safely to Jiangbei, but even so, he had still worried for a while.

After all, he couldn’t be certain whether the Jinling Xia Family, Zhou Shihao, Jiang Hongying, and others wouldn’t go mad and target An Ran.

"Of course, I’m fine," An Ran said with a smile.

Suddenly, she looked at Su Luo, staring into his eyes.

Su Luo said with a smile, "Although I know I’m handso, you don’t have to stare at

like that, right?"

An Ran blinked her eyelashes slightly, leaning closer, and said face to face, "You’re so worried about , could it be that you’ve fallen for ?"

An Ran leaned in very close, their noses nearly touching.

Even Su Luo could feel the faint breath of her words.

This made Su Luo montarily stunned.

This girl, is she that bold?

However, at this instant, Su Luo’s mind unavoidably flashed back to the scene where he forcefully kissed An Ran in the Jinling Hotel, which made Su Luo dart his eyes away, feeling sowhat unable to look straight at An Ran.

An Ran said excitedly, "Brother Su Luo, you can’t even look at , could it be that I’ve struck a chord, and you really have fallen for ?"

Su Luo wanted to say he didn’t like her, but saying that, wouldn’t it be a bit hurtful?

Or should he say... I only see you as a little sister?

But An Ran’s words were clearly in jest, so that response wouldn’t be appropriate either.

Su Luo then smiled, "An Ran, there is nothing between us, we don’t have that kind of relationship, don’t slander

by saying I’ve fallen for you!"

Su Luo was initially worried that An Ran might not understand what he was saying.

Who knew An Ran would get it in a second.

She shifted her body backward slightly, speaking as if sowhat shyly, "Oh my, why are you suddenly ’driving’? My words ant that you like , not that you’re in love with . We haven’t reached that step of going to bed yet, isn’t it embarrassing?"

Su Luo almost spit out his drink.

This girl, really no holds barred with her words, daring to say anything.

He really didn’t know where a girl who just ca of age learned so much, able to ’drive’ with a speed faster than anyone.

"You don’t have to be shy, I feel shy," Su Luo said, feigning bashfulness with a smile.

"Do burly n get shy?" An Ran laughed.

Finally, the topic had been diverted.

Su Luo thought to himself.

Just then, a sound of light coughing suddenly rang out.

"President!"

Su Luo stood up and turned towards Cui Fengyi, who was walking into the office.

Cui Fengyi held in her hand a beautifully crafted rectangular box. She ca forward and handed the box to Su Luo, "Su Luo, your performance in the Southern Martial Association’s competition was very good. I promised that as long as you won first place and brought honor to the Jiangbei Martial Association, apart from the due rewards, I would personally give you a hundred-year-old dicinal herb for your martial arts cultivation."

"This here is a hundred-year-old ginseng, please check it," she said.

Su Luo opened the box and saw a hundred-year-old ginseng lying inside.

Moreover, it still bore signs of fresh, not entirely dried-up soil – as if it had been dug up only a few days ago and was still alive!

This instantly delighted Su Luo’s heart.

He had just been thinking about the drop of Divine Liquid that had ford in his Great Dao Treasure Vase and was on the lookout for a suitable dicinal herb to cultivate.

Who would have thought that as he dozed off, soone would bring him a pillow?

However, Su Luo did not accept it right away. Instead, he was sowhat puzzled, "President, haven’t you already given

a two-hundred-year-old ginseng?"

Cui Fengyi was taken aback, "I gave one to you?"

Imdiately after, Cui Fengyi looked at An Ran.

Su Luo also looked at An Ran.

An Ran gave a playful smile and said nothing.

Cui Fengyi couldn’t be clearer about what had happened and said, "That must have been An Ran giving it to you in my na, it’s an affair between you and An Ran. This hundred-year-old ginseng is the one I promised to reward you with, so take it."
