Chapter 156: With Around, I Assure You That Your Clan Will Be Safe
Gold Sea City, one o’clock in the afternoon.
A huge screen in the city center was broadcasting a news program.
“Hello, everyone. Welco to Global News.
“Firstly, an important piece of news for you.
“Three days ago, the territory of the Leslie family clan, a top financial in the west, was attacked by an unknown force. The central square was razed to the ground.
“The best steel building in that world, the obelisk, is now nothing but a pile of slag.”
“These are the scenes after the attack… It was quite severe.
“From various sources, we’ve found groups of higher-ups were killed one after another.”
…
After this news was broadcasted, it quickly spread.
Everyone kept guessing the unknown force that attacked the Leslie family clan.
Various conspiracy theories were brought up one after another, attracting discussion.
At the sa ti, in the Pavilion of Prince Teng, Qin Chuan finished his lunch.
He had tasted all 108 dishes inside Emperor One.
It satisfied his appetite.
There was a reason why the food was so expensive.
After they finished eating, Li Zhongyun imdiately offered another invitation, hoping that Qin Chuan would co to the corporation.
Qin Chuan didn’t reject either.
In the car, the radio happened to be broadcasting the attack on the Leslie family clan’s territory.
When he heard this, Li Zhongyun’s expression changed abruptly, and he imdiately touched the LCD screen on the back of the car seat.
Soon, reports of the Leslie family clan popped out.
Upon hearing the news, Qin Chuan’s expression similarly changed subtly.
This was because he was the one behind the attack.
However, it had been quite so ti since then. So Qin Chuan thought it was quite inefficient to only be reported now.
Li Zhongyun wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and said to Qin Chuan with a pale face, “Great Master Qin, can I make a call?”
Qin Chuan nodded his head. “Do whatever you want.”
“Thank you, Great Master Qin!”
Li Zhongyun took out his phone and dialed a number.
Du——
After a few seconds, the call connected.
Li Zhongyun imdiately said into his phone, “Uncle, sothing bad has happened.”
The other party asked directly, “Did you fail to serve Great Master Qin. Has he left?”
Li Zhongyun imdiately replied, “Uncle, you have misunderstood . Great Master Qin is sitting beside . We are on our way to the company.”
“If Great Master Qin is still here, what other major matter is there? Why are you so surprised? You’re so easily alard. You’re already in your seventies—can you be more composed?”
Li Zhongyun took a few breaths and continued, “Uncle, have you seen the news?”
“No. If you have anything to say, we’ll talk about it later. The Patriarch, elders, and I will arrive in a few minutes.”
“Oh—okay! Thank you, Uncle.”
Li Zhongyun hung up the call. He was absent-minded throughout the journey, and he looked incredibly anxious.
…
Li Building.
The headquarters of the Li Pharmaceutical Co. was located in the city center. There were a total of exactly 100 levels.
They rented out the first 50 floors office buildings.
The other 50 floors were the Li Pharmaceutical Co’s headquarters.
The luxurious car stopped in front of the building. Li Zhongyun cald himself down and invited Qin Chuan down respectfully.
“Great Master Qin, so of the elders in my family just arrived. They have specially co to pay respects to you.” Li Zhongyun said while walking.
Qin Chuan calmly nodded his head.
Presently, in front of the Li building’s main entrance stood several old and young n.
Those people craned their necks and looked around, their gazes filled with anticipation.
Very soon, Qin Chuan appeared in their sight.
A smile imdiately appeared on their faces as they quickly went forward to greet him.
Qin Chuan also noticed them.
Back then, when he asked the Alchemy students to head to the Hundred Thousand Mountains to gather alchemy ingredients, they went to the Li’s territory.
Hence, Qin Chuan wasn’t unfamiliar with these people.
Soon, they t.
As the current Patriarch of the Li Family, Li Jingchen was the first to express his stance.
“Great Master Qin, please accept my bow.”
Li Jingchen imdiately bowed deeply that his eyes were at the sa height as his knees.
After the Patriarch had done so, the people at the side imdiately bowed.
Qin Chuan rely glanced at them coolly.
anwhile, Li Zhongyun quietly introduced these people to Qin Chuan.
Before long, everyone arrived at the conference hall inside the building.
The conference hall was spacious and decorated beautifully. It was a very high-class space.
Qin Chuan sat in the main seat, while the others sat on the two sides of the conference table.
“Great Master Qin, other than paying you a visit, I also have another request.” Li Jingchen started.
“Speak!” Qin Chuan calmly replied.
“I would like to invite Master Qin to be my family clan’s guest elder and hold the sa level of authority as . What do you think?”
“Guest elder?” Qin Chuan chuckled. He had a certain level of understanding of guest elders.
Guest elders were similar to chancellors of universities. They were just nominal.
Furthermore, guest elders were not restricted by the family clan, but they enjoyed the benefits of the clan.
In essence, he would also be given the sa authority as the Patriarch.
Where else could he find such a good thing?
Qin Chuan pondered for a mont. He still had to guide martial artists to cultivate. If he had the status of a guest elder of a martial arts family, it would be much easier to find his ideal martial artist.
Hence, Qin Chuan agreed.
When Li Jingchen heard this, he was extrely excited and bowed to Qin Chuan again and again.
For a mont, the atmosphere was especially joyous.
At this ti, the elder from the Foreign Affairs Hall asked Li Zhongyun: “Zhongyun, you said sothing big happened earlier. Tell , what is it?”
Li Zhongyun stood up and bowed to the elders, Patriarch and Qin Chuan. He then said, “Elders, Patriarch, it was reported in today’s news that the Leslie family clan’s territory was attacked and the central square was razed to the ground.”
“This is the big matter you ntioned?” The elder from the Foreign Affairs Hall asked with a frown.
Li Zhongyun nodded, then said in a low voice: “That was where I sent Mr. Fan previously.
“The most advanced dical room in the Leslie family clan was in the obelisk.
“Now that the obelisk has beco a pile of scrap tal, I’m afraid Mr. Fan is gone.”
When he said this, the elders’ faces imdiately fell.
“Patriarch, the Martial Arts Conference is around the corner. Without Mr. Fan, the physiognomist, our younger generation will be in danger,” an elder said.
In a martial arts family, a physiognomist was crucial to the family’s developnt and stability. A great physiognomist like Mr. Fan was necessary.
If the clan did not have a physiognomist overseeing it, it would be very easy for them to be attacked by the physiognomists of other family clans.
Today, a curse would be put on this junior, and tomorrow, that junior. So it would chaotically go back and forth.
In addition, the Martial Arts Conference was approaching, and all the family clans were actively preparing for it.
If soone cursed the juniors of the clan, then they would have no hope for the conference.
Furthermore, a curse was not a physical attack, so they couldn’t use brute force to resolve the issue.
As such, Li Jingchen felt helpless.
Ever since Mr. Fan fell into a coma, he had been trying to contact other physiognomists, but to no avail.
Now that Mr. Fan was highly likely gone, they were essentially dood for the Martial Arts Conference.
For a mont, the originally joyous atmosphere beca particularly heavy.
At this mont…
Qin Chuan took a sip of tea as he calmly said, “Patriarch Li, there’s no need to be anxious. With around, I assure you that your clan will be safe.”
