"President!"

"President!"

The people guarding the hall showed respect on their faces when they saw Shi Tao stride in.

"Um."

Shi Tao nodded and said, "It's getting late, you should all go back now."

"President, is that you?"

A bad feeling welled up in Sun Wei's heart.

This conversation probably didn't yield any good results...

"Don't worry about it."

Shi Tao waved his hand and laughed, "It's getting late, I should go back now. Don't worry about Kowloon City, I'll report it to the Awakeners Association, nothing will happen."

"President!"

A deep sense of reluctance appeared in Sun Wei's eyes.

If it weren't for this person, he would have been dead long ago.

Moreover, the previous president would specifically set aside time to use a Cloud Jade Fruit to open up several of his meridians.

"President, it's getting late. Why don't you return to headquarters early tomorrow morning?" Xu Jie quickly said.

"Yes, Master, it's too dangerous to go back now. There are countless ferocious beasts roaming outside. Better safe than sorry. Master, why don't you stay here for now?"

"President..."

Everyone was reluctant to part.

Shi Tao shook his head and walked straight out.

The group quickly gave chase, only to find that the man had vanished without a trace.

"The Grand Master is leaving..."

Someone said something that immediately brought tears to everyone's eyes.

Yes, the president has left just like that. I don't know if we'll ever have a chance to meet again, and if so, when?

Just then, a series of footsteps sounded from behind.

"Brother Chen?"

"Brother Chen!"

"It's Brother Chen!"

Everyone turned around.

"Brother Chen, what about the General Manager?" Sun Wei asked with a worried expression.

"Don't worry, with the guild leader's strength, returning to Jiangnan City won't be too dangerous."

Chen Fan comforted him.

After all, it's not easy to spot ferocious beasts around those large cities.

Of course, if you go out at night, then it's hard to say.

"so."

Sun Wei and the others exchanged glances and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

If Brother Chen says so, then the president should be fine.

"Brother Chen, what about..." Sun Wei hesitated, clearly wanting to ask about the outcome of their conversation.

Chen Fan shook his head.

"!"

Sun Wei and the others immediately turned pale.

"Don't worry, it's not as bad as you think."

Chen Fan was both amused and exasperated.

He glanced at the people around him, wanting to say something, but then thought it was unnecessary. After all, those people from Kowloon City were all dead. Even if there was trouble, it was a matter between the Awakened Association and his other identity.

As for compensation, let him refine more high-quality pills.

"President, that's all for now, I'll go get back to work."

"well."

Sun Wei quickly said.

Despite having many questions in his heart.

"Everyone, disperse. Those who need to go back and rest, and those who need to cultivate, cultivate."

"Yes, Chairman."

Upon hearing this, the crowd dispersed in twos and threes.

Soon, only Sun Wei, Xu Jie, and a few others remained.

"President?"

Xu Jie lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Chen, is he still unwilling to give up investigating that matter?"

"Absolutely, that's about right."

Sun Wei sighed.

The group of people looked at each other in bewilderment.

Brother Chen is really stubborn... Even the president himself came, but he still couldn't persuade him.

"I wonder what the outcome will be?"

"Yes, Brother Chen, things must be very difficult for the General Manager, right?"

"Even so, I still hope that one day, Brother Chen will be able to give Ling Yu a good slap in the face!"

"It's easier said than done. Don't forget, the guild leader is such a protective person, would he just stand by and watch his disciple get beaten up? I think even if Brother Chen can defeat Ling Yu, it will still be very difficult for him to do anything to him."

Upon hearing this, everyone sighed in unison.

Night fell.

By nine or ten o'clock, the streets were deserted, and most of the houses were pitch black.

Exhausted from a day's work, many people are already in bed, fast asleep.

Occasionally, whispers could be heard coming from inside the house.

"Honey, I really never imagined that one day we would be able to live in such a big city and in such a big house."

A middle-aged man lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, and said with a smile.

"Yes, I didn't expect that either."

A woman's voice rang out, "When those Awakened Ones came to our door, I thought they were lying to us. What if they got angry if we didn't agree? So, we had no choice but to pack our things and come over. Who knew it was all true?"

"yes."

The man murmured, "I heard that this is all thanks to that president. It was his order that allowed us ordinary people to move in without spending a penny. Before, let alone moving in, it was uncertain whether we could even make it here alive."

"Isn't that right?" the woman said, still shaken.

On her way here, she had no idea how many times she had been attacked by ferocious beasts.

In fact, many times, she had no idea that ferocious beasts were attacking them.

It was usually only when those few awakened masters took action and killed the ferocious beasts that they realized what had happened.

"Honey, what do you think we should do to thank that kind president?" The man turned around and looked at the woman beside him.

"What can we do to thank that kind president?" The woman was stumped by the question.

She felt that she, an ordinary person, had no way to repay the other party.

Because the two of them are like people from two different worlds.

"Hehehe."

Just then, a sudden burst of laughter rang out in the quiet room.

With the help of the dim moonlight, the two stared wide-eyed and saw a man in black appear in the room. His entire body was shrouded in a wide black robe, and apart from his lips, nothing else could be seen.

The woman was so frightened that she clung tightly to the man.

The latter was also quite frightened, and asked tremblingly, "Who, who are you? Why are you in my house? Get out! Get out now! Otherwise, I'll call for help!"

"Go ahead and scream," the man in black laughed. "Even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you."

"What...what do you want to do?!"

The man immediately realized something, and the next moment, he shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Help! Help!"

"Help! Someone, please!"

The two were screaming hysterically. Such a loud noise, especially in such a quiet night, should have alerted countless people long ago.

Strangely, there was no sound from outside.

The two voices gradually quieted down, because even they realized something was wrong.

"Out of energy?"

The man in black smirked mockingly. "Keep shouting, huh? Weren't you shouting quite loudly just now? Should I give you a little more time to rest before you shout a few more times?"

"What...what exactly do you want to do?"

The man was desperate and pleaded, "Please, as long as you don't hurt us, we'll do anything you ask."

"Yes, sir, please, don't kill us. We just moved in from outside and don't know the rules of the city. If we've done anything wrong, please be magnanimous and don't hold it against us. If it really doesn't work, we'll move out first thing tomorrow morning, okay?"

The woman was crying uncontrollably.

She suspected that the person in front of her was someone who originally lived in the city.

The original inhabitants of the city wore their dissatisfaction with these newcomers on their faces. If it weren't for the Awakened Ones' strict prohibition against causing trouble, a conflict would probably have broken out long ago.

To their surprise, these people would come looking for trouble at night, and their methods were so bizarre and unpredictable.

"No, no, no."

The man in black opened his mouth, revealing a set of pearly white teeth. "If you hadn't moved in, how would we have had such a good opportunity? So much prey, lambs to the slaughter—it's hard to find that outside!"

"What, what are you trying to do? Help! Help!"

"Is anyone coming? Please help us!"

The two were so frightened that they clung to each other, letting out piercing screams.

The man's smile deepened, as if he were enjoying the scene.

After a moment, he clicked his tongue and muttered to himself, "No, I can't waste too much time. If I don't achieve my goal tonight, I'll be punished by Sister Ru when I get back."

Thinking of this, the man in black shuddered, and a black sphere suddenly appeared in his hand, smaller than the previous one.

At the same time, he was muttering to himself.

Suddenly, dozens of tentacles emerged from the black sphere, piercing towards the two people huddled in the corner. The latter tried to throw out pillows and blankets in resistance, but these were pierced directly, followed by their bodies.

Before long, their bodies were drained dry. In the end, not even their corpses were left behind, only some clothes scattered on the bed, proving that someone had been there before.

"The nineteenth, the twentieth."

The man in black put away the black ball with satisfaction, walked forward, and put the clothes into his spatial storage.

After searching again and confirming that nothing was left behind, he disappeared from the spot.

Besides him, there were several other men in black repeating the same actions.

Some people disappear without a trace.

In the shadows, several men huddled together, one of them whispering something.

"This Zhang Ru is simply outrageous!"

The leader of the group said with a grim expression, "His Holiness the Bishop said to observe for a few days and figure out the situation before taking action. Did she ignore His Holiness's words? Besides..."

The man's eyes widened with fear as he said this, "That Li Ping might not be as simple as we think. Even if His Holiness the Bishop came, he probably wouldn't be a match for him. Perhaps we shouldn't have come to Anshan City."
