With Chen Luos promise in hand, Li Ting departed in high spirits, even assuring him of extra benefits if her plan succeeded.
Finally, shes gone. Otherwise, I would have been tempted to gouge out her eyes, Zhao Yingxuan remarked with a chilly gaze as she watched Li Tings retreating back. Li Tings unabashed staring at Chen Luo had already irked Zhao Yingxuan. Not just any woman was entitled to covet her man, especially not soone as unappealing as Li Ting.
I understand youre scheming against Ye Chen, but arent you concerned about unintended consequences? Xiao Qingxue asked Chen Luo, her tone skeptical. If Ye Chen really ends up with Li Ting, he might use the Li familys influence against you.
Are you expressing concern for ? Chen Luo asked with a playful grin.
No, Xiao Qingxue replied coldly, her expression frosty. I would actually prefer to see you in trouble.
Chen Luo chuckled lightly. Was he supposed to worry about such matters? Even if he succeeded in entrapping Ye Chen into a relationship with Li Ting, would Ye Chen genuinely accept her? It seed more plausible that Ye Chen, in a burst of fury, might end up killing Li Ting, thereby making the Li family his adversaries. The likelihood of this scenario was exceedingly high.
Such a concern might be valid if Ye Chen were the type of protagonist who was cunning and unscrupulous, willing to use any ans for his ends. But Ye Chen was not that sort of character.
Chun i, check with Bai ixiang about Ye Chens whereabouts, Chen Luo directed.
Chun i nodded and imdiately reached out to Bai ixiang.
Chen Luo had been having Bai ixiang keep a watchful eye on Ye Chen. Although keeping him under constant surveillance was challenging, they generally managed to track his location.
A while later, Chun i relayed to Chen Luo, White Rose reports that Ye Chen has left the Wang familys residence. His current location is unknown. The trackers have lost him.
He got away? Tell Bai ixiang to use all resources to find Ye Chens location.
Losing track of a protagonist like Ye Chen wasnt surprising.
About three hours later, Bai ixiang sent an update, informing Chen Luo of Ye Chens new location.
Do you want to take Elsa with us? Shes been quite compliant lately, Zhao Yingxuan suggested as Chen Luo prepared to head out.
The female assassin they had captured was now completely subdued under Zhao Yingxuans persistent efforts. A skilled assassin like her could potentially assist Chen Luo.
Shes too weak, Chen Luo assessed.
Even though Elsa was a formidable fighter compared to an average person, she probably wouldnt last more than three moves in a confrontation with Ye Chen. This was a generous estimation. Moreover, Chen Luo still couldnt fully trust Elsa. Despite Zhao Yingxuans belief in Elsas obedience, there was always the chance she was rely pretending.
Continue to keep her detained for now, Chen Luo decided, opting not to bring additional backup.
Chun i and Xia Lan stayed ho while Bai ixiang, accompanied by Qiuz Hu and Dong Ju, was already at the site, providing ample support.
Upon Chen Luos arrival at the Supre Club, Bai ixiang and her team were ready and waiting.
Mr. Chen, be cautious as you enter. This place is under Jin Sanyes control, and hes currently inside, Bai ixiang warned.
In Magic Citys underworld, the three most formidable figures were Jin Sanye, White Rose, and the late Liang Xinghu. With White Rose now aligned with Chen Luo, and Liang Xinghu deceased, only Jin Sanye remained, who was allied with Ye Chen through the backing of the Wang family.
The Supre Club, being Magic Citys most prestigious venue, was where Ye Chen, guided by Wang Hong, t Jin Sanye.
Lets head in, Chen Luo said confidently, striding forward.
Bai ixiang followed, not particularly worried. Although she had brought a small team and no weapons, she trusted in their combat strength. The White Rose of today was no longer what she used to be, confident in navigating perilous situations.
Sir, Madam, you need to present a mbership card to gain entry.
They were halted just inside the entrance.
With a loud Bang~!, a fist as big as a pot struck the person blocking them. Ah Da, with his bear-like presence, stood there, radiating a sense of intimidation.
Ah Da was present too. Initially, he was following Luo Zixuans orders to target Ye Chen, but after Chen Luo learned of Ye Chens whereabouts, he summoned Ah Da to join him.
Looking for a fight, are we?
A bald man with a facial scar approached, appearing to be in his thirties and standing nearly one ter ninety tall, exuding a fierce deanor.
Hes Jin Sanyes top enforcer, Zhao Biao, known for his black-market boxing history. Hes responsible for at least forty deaths in the ring, a real hard case, Bai ixiang whispered to Chen Luo. As Jin Sanyes rival, she was well-versed in the details of his underlings. In contrast, Jin Sanye hardly knew anything substantial about Bai ixiang, not even her real identity.
Hes not a challenge, Chen Luo casually remarked, eyeing Zhao Biao. Despite his intimidating looks, Zhao Biao was no match for Elsa.
As soon as Chen Luo finished speaking, Ah Das fist collided with Zhao Biao. Despite his bulky size, Ah Da moved with astonishing speed, sending the towering Zhao Biao flying like a ball. It was a swift, decisive victory, just as Chen Luo had predicted.
The clubs patrons turned their attention to the commotion. The naive ones continued to watch with interest, while the prudent ones had already made their exit.
Lead to your real boss, Chen Luo demanded, focusing on another visibly shocked man.
He had been accompanying Zhao Biao and was accustod to seeing him overpower or kill opponents, but witnessing Zhao Biao being overpowered in an instant was a first for him.
Who are you, exactly?
I dont need to hear any excuses. Lead to Jin Sanye, Chen Luo commanded with an icy gaze.
Ah Da, whose hand was gripping the mans shoulder, intensified his grip, almost crushing the bones beneath.
Alright, Ill take you there imdiately.
The other security guards in the club exchanged uncertain looks, none daring to intervene. Their toughest fighter, Zhao Biao, who could take on ten n single-handedly, had been knocked out. Who would dare step up now? Even those with electric batons were reluctant to act.
Upon reaching the upper floors of the club, they found it teeming with people. The area had been cleared out in anticipation of their arrival. Jin Sanyes n were nurous, significantly outnumbering Bai ixiangs group. Ye Chen was also there.
Chen Luos attention was drawn to Jin Sanye. The man was not particularly tall, slightly short, standing less than one ter seventy. He appeared to be around fifty, with a receding hairline and a string of Buddhist beads in his hand. While his stature might not seem imposing, his piercing eyes indicated he was no ordinary character.
You must be Bai ixiang, arent you? Jin Sanyes gaze shifted to Bai ixiang, standing next to Chen Luo.
Bai ixiang was shrouded in mystery. Few had actually seen her, and even those who had might not know she was one of the key figures in Magic Citys underworld, known as White Rose. For Jin Sanye, a figure more influential in the underworld than Bai ixiang, this was his first ti eting her.
When Ye Chen saw Bai ixiang, his eyes lit up, recognizing her charm to be nearly equal to Xiao Qingxues. Jealousy soon followed, wondering why Chen Luo always seed to be surrounded by beautiful won.
