The Fourth Lingshi Financial Crisis

Chapter 542

As soon as Yang Chenglong said this, Liu Hanxing could no longer say what he wanted to give in.

Although Yang Chenglong's words seem to be maintaining his authority as the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank from any angle, and he seems to be very loyal, but for some reason, Liu Hanxing has the feeling of being stuck after eating shit. Nauseous feeling in throat...

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, if he wants to succumb to the coercion of a mere Qi Refining Stage cultivator, wouldn't it be true what Yang Chenglong said just now, that he is the laughing stock of the Kyushu cultivation world?

What's more, he has no room for concessions!

Seeing Liu Hanxing's silence for a long time, Ye Chen couldn't help but laughed miserably and said: "Sure enough! President Liu, you don't have the determination to avenge me at all! Since this is the case, this time the Haiya Chamber of Commerce took the initiative to set up a banquet. Ye Chen is going to make a decision!"

Until now, Liu Hanxing finally realized the aggrieved feeling Chen Ming felt at the Zhongzhou Sword Discourse Conference.

No matter which leader, with such a brainless subordinate, his lungs will explode, and what's even more uncomfortable is that even if he gets angry again, he can't directly shoot this guy to death, and he has to follow him. This idiot makes sense.

Seeing Ye Chen who was as stubborn as a donkey, Liu Hanxing felt as if he had been tricked by Chen Ming. Chen Ming might have deliberately transferred this pig teammate to him, and bought a good price by the way!

Now Liu Hanxing really wants to go to Tianshu City to ask Master Chen:
How have you survived the past 20 years!

Forcibly resisting the urge to slap Ye Chen to death, Liu Hanxing gritted his teeth and said, "If I insist on not letting you go to the meeting alone, will you not plan to cooperate with us?"

There was no turning back when he opened the bow. Now that all the cruel words have been released, Ye Chen has no way out, so he can only bite the bullet and ask: "Since you don't want to make an oath, do I have any other options?"

"You guy... aren't you afraid of death?"

Ye Chen retorted on the spot: "I really don't want to die, but I don't even believe that Jiang Hua'an dared to attack me in full view! If the Haiya faction dared to openly kill the disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect at the banquet, wouldn't it be tantamount to raising the flag of rebellion?" Is it? If they want to send Tinghe Yuge assassins to assassinate me, you are fully capable of protecting me like Ma Tianyi protected Lu Yang back then, aren't you?"

Ma Tianyi, the former head of the Wuliangjian Sect, used Lu Yang, the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank during the Qi refining period, as a bait to counter-kill the assassin of the Shenhuo Sect. It has long been familiar.

It's just that with Ye Chen's brain, he definitely can't think of such a lofty rhetoric. This is obviously the way Jiang Hua'an taught him to deal with Liu Hanxing in the letter.

These sharp remarks also made Liu Hanxing speechless for a while.

And Yang Chenglong also booed: "Ye Daoyou's words are quite reasonable! Didn't "Cultivation Finance Weekly" say that? Our Wuliang Sword Sect does not take the initiative to cause trouble, but we are absolutely not afraid of trouble! Facing any challenge, the Wuliang Sword Sect has a red line The Wuliang Sword Sect will take effective measures to resolutely respond and counter such actions, if the Haiya Faction insists on going its own way and brazenly attack Ye Chen, we can wait and see the consequences!"

Looking at Yang Chenglong, who was full of "self-confident martial arts", everyone was speechless. The high-sounding speeches of "Cultivation Finance Weekly" were all made outside. Why did you suddenly say this in private?

Are you afraid that others will not know your love for the Wuliang Sword Sect?
However, it is not good for everyone to refute him publicly, because these words are undoubtedly politically correct in Zhongzhou.

Several senior monks of the Wuliang Sword School were lamenting that the propaganda of the Wuliang Sword School was getting more and more outrageous, but Liu Hanxing suddenly let go and said: "If you must go to the banquet, then go!"

As soon as these words came out, even Fu Meng, the head of the Law Enforcement Hall, couldn't hold back anymore.

He hurriedly stepped forward, and persuaded in a low voice: "President Liu, the current Haiya Chamber of Commerce is completely a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. If Ye Chen goes to that kind of place, can he come back alive?"

However, Liu Hanxing didn't pay attention to Fu Meng, but turned to Ye Chen and said: "I can agree with you to go, but you have to promise me that as long as you can come back alive, you must unconditionally cooperate with our next actions!"

Seeing that Liu Hanxing chose to compromise, Ye Chen was also very surprised.

For Ye Chen, being able to force Liu Hanxing to make substantive concessions is already a very remarkable achievement, but he still insisted: "The old thief Jiang Hua'an also said in the letter that he must talk to me alone!"

That meant that Liu Hanxing couldn't go with him.

Everyone thought that Liu Hanxing would be furious, but unexpectedly Liu Hanxing said in a deep voice: "We must guard you outside the banquet hall, don't worry, I don't care what you talked about with Jiang Huaan, it's just to prevent Jiang Huaan from treating you Kill the killer. If the distance is too far, I am not sure to protect your safety."

Ye Chen knew that this was Liu Hanxing's bottom line.

Although he didn't think that Jiang Hua'an dared to murder him openly, but he didn't have bodyguards to protect him, so he felt a little guilty. Considering that in "In the Name of Mortals", Master Hou also arranged for a foundation-building monk named Zhao Xilai to support him outside the Shanshui Chamber of Commerce , he nodded heavily and said: "Then thank you, President Liu, for making it happen!"

Fu Meng wanted to persuade him again, but Liu Hanxing just whispered something in his ear, so Fu Meng stopped talking.

The words have come to this point, this Hongmen Banquet is already imperative.

After deliberation, everyone finally decided that Liu Hanxing and Fu Meng would personally go to the headquarters of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce to protect Ye Chen, while Tan Sijun, another Jindan late-stage monk of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Wuliang Sword Sect, and all the formation masters who came to help Continue to sit in the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce to prevent foreign enemies from sneaking in.

Seeing Liu Hanxing let go of his mouth, Yang Chenglong also felt very strange, but when he asked Liu Hanxing sideways, whether such an arrangement would be a little rash, Liu Hanxing just told him not to worry, without explaining too much.

Obviously, after the "message sending incident", Liu Hanxing no longer trusts Yang Chenglong's ability to handle affairs. He hasn't had an attack so far, it's just because he doesn't want to embarrass Qiu Longbo's people privately!

The experience of observing words and expressions brought by years of fraud work made Yang Chenglong aware of the other party's distrust, and through Liu Hanxing's tone, he instinctively felt that the other party should rely on others.

It's just that with his current status, it's really not easy to continue to inquire about these secrets, otherwise he will definitely get burned, so he can only pass these speculations to Yang Lu through the switchboard, and let Consultant Yang make a judgment in person...

After the Haiya Department and Law Enforcement Hall made their own plans, both sides began intensive preparations.

After a few more hours, the banquet time officially arrived.

Although this Hongmen Banquet was set up by Jiang Hua'an, he did not host a banquet for Ye Chen at his home base, Haiya City Lord's Mansion as usual, but chose the venue of the banquet at Su Yuanfeng's home court, which is located in the center of Haiya City. , the headquarters of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, which is decorated similar to a classical oriental garden.

That night, Ye Chen arrived as scheduled under the escort of two Jindan stage monks, and Fu Meng, an experienced law enforcement monk, frowned as soon as he stepped into the headquarters of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce.

The headquarters of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce seems to be just a classical garden composed of rockery and spiritual plants, but these man-made landscapes rich in spiritual energy together form the famous magic formation in the cultivation world [Songzhu Mizong].

Because of the high cost of this set of formations, it is not common in the cultivation world. Its main purpose is to protect the privacy of the practitioners. As long as they are in the formation, whether it is the owner or the guest of the formation, their spiritual consciousness will be seriously disturbed, and even they will not be able to use it. The method covers more than three feet away, making the detection range of the spiritual consciousness of the practitioners narrower than that of vision.

Since this formation treats everyone equally, the Haiya Chamber of Commerce set up a formation similar to [Songzhu Lost Track] in a private place to show respect for the guests.

Under normal circumstances, there is nothing wrong with the Haiya Chamber of Commerce setting up such a formation to protect the privacy of its guests. After all, no guest wants to eat by himself, and be locked by the spiritual consciousness of strangers at any time.

But because Jiang Hua'an chose to host the banquet at the headquarters of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce instead of at his old lair, Haiya City Lord's Mansion, there were very suspicious signs in itself, and he felt the special "godless" environment constructed by [Songzhu Lost Track] , This immediately aroused the vigilance of professional law enforcement officer Fu Meng.

As the most professional law enforcement agency in Zhongzhou, the Wuliang Sword School Law Enforcement Hall not only possesses great force, but also has its own expertise in the field of reconnaissance and communication spells, such as the special sound transmission spell of the Wuliang Sword School Law Enforcement Hall, which can Treating most of the interference as nothing, unless the opponent sets up a magic barrier to violently intercept it, there is almost no way to intercept it.

After noticing the abnormality, Fu Meng immediately picked up the sound transmission spell, and reported to Liu Hanxinghui beside him: "President Liu, the guardian phantom array of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce really has some skills, and Jiang Huaan's banquet here must be fraudulent." !"

Liu Hanxing frowned, and replied in the same way through voice transmission: "If you don't enter the tiger's lair, how can you catch a tiger cub? If we don't take the initiative to sell them a loophole, we won't be able to catch their fox tail. Since Jiang Huaan wants to catch Ye Chen out , I really hope that they can gather all their strength to launch a thunderous strike, so that we can take the opportunity to wipe them all out!"

However, Fu Meng put forward a different opinion this time: "Although there is nothing wrong with this trick, after seeing the phantom formation here, I think there is a high probability that they will not fight head-on, and they will not leave us a clue, but very It is possible to kill Ye Chen in an under-the-table way, after all, the crime of blatantly killing the disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect is too great!"

Liu Hanxing's tone remained unchanged: "To deal with such unscrupulous tricks, if you look at the whole of Zhongzhou, I'm afraid you won't be able to find a monk who is more professional than you, Fellow Daoist Fu!"

When it comes to his own professional field, a trace of pride flashed across Fu Meng's face: "I have solved countless cases, as long as the other party dares not come hard, they will definitely not be able to fool my discernment!"

Liu Hanxing also sneered: "That's good, if they really dare to come hard, this time I will definitely let them come and go!"

Ye Chen, who was walking in front of the two, didn't notice the sound transmission between the two Jindan bosses.

After "coercing" Liu Hanxing to make concessions, Ye Chen had already had the illusion that he had changed from a chess piece to a chess player. However, he did not realize that in the eyes of the two major cultivation forces, he was like a pawn in the palm of the Tathagata Buddha. Monkey King, no matter how he turned somersaults, he couldn't jump out of the Five Fingers Mountain of Jiang Hua'an and Liu Hanxing.

Under the guidance of the disciples of the Haiya faction, the two soon arrived at the banquet venue. This is a small island located on an artificial lake, and the island is surrounded by soundproof barriers.

When they came to the wooden bridge connecting the island, the disciples of the Haiya faction who were in charge pointed to a gazebo by the lake and said, "Seniors, you can rest here for a while, we have already arranged to go to the pavilion. Waiting for the spirit tea reception, and Ye Daoyou will send the head of Jiang to personally have a banquet on Huxin Island in order to clarify the misunderstanding of the year, but the matter of the year involved a lot of secrets of the Haiya faction, and I invite the two seniors to take the initiative to avoid it. two."

These are all pre-arranged conditions.

Liu Hanxing nodded, and took the initiative to take Fu Meng to sit down in the gazebo by the lake.

As Ye Chen's bodyguard, Fu Meng didn't even have the heart to taste the top-quality spirit tea worth hundreds of Lingshi coins, but directly set his sights on the banquet hall on the island in the middle of the lake. That's right, you can see the situation in the banquet hall of Huxin Island at a glance, and the Sea Cliff Chamber of Commerce didn't even arrange blindfold spells.

This frank environment is somewhat suspicious!
Fu Meng secretly observed the environment, and soon discovered that the banquet hall had an obvious feature.

The hall is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows, with a wide view and a luxurious style, but this also brings problems. From the outside, the entire hall is exposed, like a big stage.If the curtains were closed, the problem would be solved, but the strange thing is that there are curtain boxes on the top of the floor-to-ceiling windows, but there are no curtains, or the curtains have been temporarily removed for some reason.

This discovery made his heart tremble.

Others may not be able to see the strangeness here, but Fu Meng, who has handled countless major cases, discovered the problem immediately.

Because of the powerful interference of the Songzhu Mitrace Array on the spiritual consciousness of the cultivators, the spiritual consciousness of the cultivators has been completely abolished in the headquarters of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, and the visual signal has become the most efficient means of observation, and this hall is open on all sides. This characteristic, of course, allowed them, the masters of the Wuliang Sword School, to obtain a very good third-party observation perspective, but at the same time, it also turned this banquet hall into an open-air shooting range with no shelter, anyone can launch a surprise attack from any angle!
So Fu Meng immediately informed Liu Hanxing of his discovery.

However, Liu Hanxing should have expected it a long time ago. Hearing Fu Meng's report, he just casually sighed that the visitor was not kind, and quickly asked, "Can you monitor the conversation in the banquet hall?"

Fu Meng nodded lightly, then shook his head and said: "They have set up several sound-proof formations, but our Law Enforcement Hall also has its own eavesdropping means, which should be able to crack it, but it will take some time!"

Liu Hanxing nodded: "Can Ye Chen's safety be guaranteed?"

Fu Meng observed the surrounding environment again, and said firmly: "It should be no problem! There is a high probability that the Haiya family intends to assassinate Ye Chen by means of long-distance sniping. This method makes it difficult to trace the real culprit. Throwing Ting He Yuge or other inexplicable guys did not exceed our previous expectations."

"So you guys are ready?"

Fu Meng said firmly: "Just don't worry, I have carried out countless assassination and protection missions. In this regard, the Haiya Cultivation capitalists are much younger than us!"
