Chapter 394: Chapter 382: You Forced Me (Please Subscribe)
"Sorry, I don’t understand what you’re saying."
Chen Fan frowned and said, "Who is Yan Ming, Du Hao? Their deaths have nothing to do with me. I don’t even know what they look like.
Besides, you folks from Jiulong City, causing trouble at the Anshan City Awakened Association in broad daylight, even injuring my subordinates, don’t you find that a bit arrogant?"
"Arrogant? Maybe."
Li Yan laughed and said:
"Chairman Li, if this matter truly has nothing to do with you as you say, we will naturally apologize to you and your subordinate. But I wonder, does Chairman Li have the guts to come back and confront us?"
As his voice fell, the hall was deathly silent.
"Chairman! Quickly report this to the headquarters!"
Hua Jun shouted.
He firmly believed that the chairman had nothing to do with this matter.
However, given the way these people operate, saying there will be a confrontation at the scene might mean the chairman will be controlled the moment he arrives, making him fish on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.
If they both died then, it would be impossible to investigate this matter, likely ending the same way as with Yan Ming, unresolved.
"Shut up!"
Wu Fei’s eyes were full of killing intent, "Do you feel like you haven’t suffered enough pain? Should I exert more force?"
"Is this your attitude towards my subordinates?"
Chen Fan’s voice turned cold.
"Don’t worry, it’s just a minor injury."
Li Yan sighed and said, "Actually, we were also forced. If we hadn’t done this, we wouldn’t have gotten your contact information. If he had cooperated, he wouldn’t have suffered this kind of pain.
Chairman Li, I advise you, for your sake and your friend’s, to return immediately. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee what will happen next."
"Chairman Li, your friend is very loyal to you. Even under these circumstances, he still refuses to reveal your location. If it weren’t for Brother Li’s quick thinking to get his phone, we might not have been able to contact you." A sarcastic voice chimed in.
"Exactly, Chairman Li. With such a good subordinate, if you leave him to fend for himself, it would be heartbreaking." Others chimed in loudly, ostensibly addressing Chen Fan but really informing others present, putting Chen Fan in a difficult position.
Hearing their threatening words, a strong killing intent rose in Chen Fan’s heart.
The reason he killed Du Hao was to avoid further conflicts with people from Jiulong City and to end this matter once and for all.
Unfortunately, fate had other plans.
These people somehow made him a suspect, haunting him and even injuring Hua Jun.
To get justice for his subordinate and to eliminate this issue once and for all, he had to face it head-on.
"Alright, you said you’re at the Association now, right?"
Li Yan was a bit surprised, then immediately said, "Yes, we are right in the hall."
"Fine, I’m outside now. It will take me two hours to get back. In two hours, I will return to the hall to confront you. If it turns out you’re wrong, what will you do?" Chen Fan asked.
"If we’re wrong?"
Li Yan chuckled, "Then we’ll immediately apologize."
"That’s not enough."
Chen Fan said coldly, "You entered the Association and injured my people. Each person should receive a compensation of one hundred thousand points!"
"One hundred thousand points per person? That’s two hundred thousand points? Deal."
Li Yan readily agreed and asked, "But what if it turns out we were right?"
"Then you can do whatever you want with me."
"Great, it’s a deal!"
Li Yan laughed heartily, held up two fingers, "Then we’ll wait two hours for Chairman Li. If you’re not here in two hours, we’ll assume you’re guilty and have fled."
"Don’t worry, I am the chairman of the Anshan City Awakened Association; I would never flee in guilt. Also, within these two hours, I don’t want anything to happen to my subordinate. When I get close to Anshan City, I will call again and have Hua Jun answer. If by then..."
"Chairman Li, no need to worry."
Li Yan smiled slightly, "We mainly want to clear things up with you. He is not important to us. If you still have doubts, you can call when the time comes."
"Very well, then that’s settled. I will be back within two hours."
"Good, we will be waiting for you here, Chairman Li."
Li Yan hung up the phone, his smile turning colder.
Should he praise this Li Ping for being clever or foolish?
Even if he was framed, so what?
The fact that they didn’t want his life was already a heavenly blessing, yet he still hoped to get a compensation of a hundred thousand points per person?
What a joke!
But to keep this guy from playing tricks, he agreed for now. Anyway, once the guy returned, whether he stayed or left would be up to them.
"Brother Li," At this time, Zuo Hong asked curiously, "That guy said he’d be back in two hours?"
"Yes,"
Li Yan nodded.
"Wait for that long?" Wu Fei’s eyes widened, shouting.
"Brother Li, could that guy be stalling for time?"
"Yeah, Brother Li, it’s too long. The City Lord might bring people over in less than half an hour."
"I don’t think so."
Li Yan shook his head, "I could tell, he seems to be hunting the Fierce Beasts outside. I heard sounds of battle in the background. Two hours is the time it will take for him to get back."
"I see."
"That guy is hunting the Fierce Beasts..."
The few people were a bit surprised.
And a bit conflicted.
But thinking about how the guy might be Du Hao’s killer, their anger resurfaced.
"Don’t worry. If he didn’t plan to come back, he wouldn’t have made those demands. Besides, don’t forget, his comrade is in our hands. If he doesn’t show up after two hours, it wouldn’t be a bad thing."
"Not a bad thing?"
"Brother Li means, if he doesn’t show up, we can confirm he’s the one who killed Brother Du Hao." Someone said.
"Indeed."
Li Yan nodded slightly, glanced at Hua Jun, "Then we can kill this guy first, and then look for him."
"Indeed indeed."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
After all, if he’s not guilty, why wouldn’t he dare to come back?
Nine times out of ten, he’s the killer!
Of course, if he comes back in two hours, it doesn’t mean he’s not the killer.
"Brother Li, in that case, shouldn’t we just kill this guy now, to avoid further trouble?" Wu Fei suggested.
Hua Jun immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
"No rush."
Li Yan shook his head, "The time hasn’t come yet."
"Alright then."
Wu Fei showed a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
"These bastards!"
Hua Jun breathed a sigh of relief, but also gritted his teeth in anger.
These bastards are from Jiulong City? A medium-sized city, no wonder they’re so strong that he couldn’t fight back at all.
But does being from Jiulong City give them the right to break into the Association and do whatever they want? He was the vice-chairman here!
"No, something’s not right, the chairman!"
Hua Jun suddenly thought of something, his face turned ugly again.
The chairman will be back in two hours?
What’s the point of coming back? He needs to inform the higher-ups immediately! What is the chairman thinking? Even though he’s strong, any of these guys could be as strong or stronger than him, right?
No, wait, maybe the chairman is just saying that on the surface, but secretly informing the higher-ups!
Realizing this, Hua Jun nodded to himself.
Yes, even someone like him could figure this out, the chairman would surely see through it, right?
Sigh, let’s hope everything turns out safe in the end.
In fact, Chen Fan had no intention of informing the higher-ups.
Because he knew, even if he reported this, it would only solve the immediate crisis. Who knows, they could come back that night.
If that were the case, it would be better to kill them all to end the problem for good.
"Still have two hours."
Chen Fan put his phone back in his pocket, looking at the surrounding beast horde.
The reason he asked for two hours was to kill all the Fierce Beasts in the city, earning more experience points to further enhance his strength.
If he used his Archery with the Demon-Breaking Arrow, he could kill them all right away and return.
However, unless absolutely necessary, he didn’t want to reveal his real identity, so he opted for close combat.
He had initially planned to max out the Sun Observation Technique and then upgrade the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill and Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill, saving a lot of experience points.
Now it seemed, the order had to be changed.
First, he would learn the two Supreme Martial Arts that could greatly enhance his combat strength, and then use the remaining experience points to upgrade the last Supreme Martial Arts skill.
Otherwise, it would be awkward if there weren’t enough experience points.
Once he mastered the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill and Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill, even if he couldn’t defeat so many of them, his chances of retreating safely would increase significantly.
"Hua Jun, I’m really sorry for dragging you into this."
Chen Fan sighed, feeling guilty.
If he could successfully save him upon returning, he would definitely compensate him.
If he couldn’t save him, then every single person from Jiulong City would pay with their lives!
