In the Awakening Association hall.
Everyone looked at the enormous headless corpse on the ground, and took a sharp breath.
The muscles were like rock, with fists the size of half a human. It was obvious what the result would be if a punch landed on them.
What puzzled them was that there was only this corpse and bloodstains everywhere in the hall. Where were the other seven people?
According to the President, weren’t all eight people from Jiulong City supposed to be killed?
"Don’t bother looking," Chen Fan glanced at them and said calmly, "the bloodstains on the ground are them."
"What! The bloodstains are them!
"What the...!?"
Upon hearing this, everyone widened their eyes and showed disbelief on their faces.
Hua Jun and Xie Ming exchanged glances, both feeling a chill climb up their hearts.
But thinking about it, if the President’s strength wasn’t enough to handle them, the President’s fate might have been even worse.
Besides, they brought this upon themselves, so there’s no sympathy.
"I’m sorry, Hua Jun, you got involved this time."
Chen Fan said.
Everyone turned their gaze towards him.
Hua Jun, feeling flattered, quickly shook his head and said, "The President is too kind, it was just a minor injury, unlike the President..."
Chen Fan raised his hand to interrupt him, "Enough, stop flattering. There’s no need. I saw the pain you went through, and in a few days, I’ll give you a Celestial God Fruit as compensation."
"Celestial—Celestial God Fruit!"
Not only Hua Jun, but also Xie Ming and others, were all stunned, their eyes showing eagerness.
Although many of them didn’t have the privilege to buy the Celestial God Fruit, the name was very familiar.
After consuming it, it could greatly enhance spiritual power, even enabling someone to jump from D-level to C-level Awakened.
It’s very expensive, priced at 50,000 points for one piece!
Even Hua Jun wouldn’t dare to buy such a thing.
"Pres—President, this—this is too expensive, I can’t accept it." He reacted and quickly declined.
"I said accept it, then take it. Why so much nonsense?"
Chen Fan’s tone became firm, resuming his usual demeanor as a superior.
"Yes, yes."
Hua Jun chuckled bitterly, feeling both astonished and touched, and of course, delighted.
The President seemed unapproachable and cold, but he was actually a very good person.
If it were another place’s President, they might give some compensation, but a Celestial God Fruit? That’s not something an ordinary person can give.
The others were even more envious at this moment.
If only they had been injured too, how nice would that be? They could also get a Celestial God Fruit now.
Chen Fan glanced at the others and nodded silently.
He’s doing this to win people’s hearts.
At first glance, 50,000 points could buy an Unparalleled Technique, it seemed a bit of a loss.
On closer look, the constraint in mastering Supreme Martial Arts wasn’t the lack of points but the insufficient experience points.
Any Supreme Martial Arts requires about a million experience points to reach Perfection Realm, Dragon Elephant Wisdom Skill needs no less than tens of millions.
In this view, 50,000 points were precious but not so much.
"That’s it for today, clean up here. Take the corpse and burn it."
"Yes, President!"
Everyone replied in unison.
"By the way, President, I forgot to say something."
At this moment, Hua Jun suddenly thought of something, his face changing.
Chen Fan paused and turned, "What is it?"
"President, I heard from these people that they weren’t the only ones who came from Jiulong City this time, there was another group!"
"What?"
Hearing this, Chen Fan’s face changed slightly, "You mean there’s another group in Anshan City? Who are they? Where are they now?"
"They said the other group was led by the Jiulong City Lord, after entering the city, they split up and went to the Martial Arts Association."
Hua Jun hurriedly said.
"Led by Jiulong City Lord? Went to the Martial Arts Association?"
Chen Fan said with surprise.
He originally thought the Jiulong City Lord didn’t come this time. He planned to find a suitable opportunity to eliminate him. It turned out he came, and to his greater surprise, he went to the Anshan City Martial Arts Association?
He knew the Anshan City Martial Arts Association was much weaker compared to the Awakening Association.
"President, I’m not clear either, Jiulong City Lord took people to the Martial Arts Association for what. Actually, I learned about it from their conversation," Hua Jun recalled, "It seemed something happened at that time."
"Something happened?"
"Yes."
Hua Jun nodded, "These people were waiting for your return. As they waited, they felt something was wrong because it had been almost two hours and they hadn’t received any message from the other side."
"And then?"
"Then, that guy named Li—though not you, President," Hua Jun smiled bitterly at Chen Fan and continued, "He called the Jiulong City Lord several times but no one answered."
"Called several times and no one answered?"
Chen Fan frowned, "Could it be something happened?"
"They thought so and were about to send someone to check when you arrived and the subsequent events followed."
Hua Jun said.
Chen Fan squinted his eyes, feeling something strange.
He was very familiar with the people in the Martial Arts Association, like Sun Wei and others, they weren’t the opponents of these people, he wasn’t in the city at the time, no one could handle them.
How could they be out of touch?
Did the other group leave first? Thinking about it, it wasn’t possible.
"Let’s use Celestial Response. If they are still in the Martial Arts Association, they won’t escape my perception."
With that thought, he activated Celestial Response.
The next moment, a strong presence emerged within his perception, like a full moon in the dark night, overshadowing all other presences in the city.
"What is this?"
Chen Fan was greatly shocked.
At the same time, in the Martial Arts Association, Shi Tao, who was instructing people in martial arts, suddenly sensed something and looked towards the Awakening Association.
"What’s wrong, President?"
Sun Wei asked with confusion.
"Nothing."
Shi Tao shook his head, but his face showed unprecedented seriousness.
Someone was sensing his presence?
Who?
When he tried to perceive further, the feeling suddenly disappeared.
His tightly furrowed brows slightly relaxed, he pointed in the direction he looked and asked, "Is that the Awakening Association’s direction?"
Sun Wei and others followed his direction and thought a bit before nodding.
"Yes, President, that is the Awakening Association’s direction."
"What’s wrong, President? Could it be?"
Sun Wei’s face changed.
Since the Jiulong City Lord’s group was killed, he had been on edge, concerned that their companions might cause trouble.
After two hours of calm, suddenly things seem to stir again?
"Don’t worry."
Shi Tao comforted, "With me here, nothing will happen."
"Hmm."
Everyone nodded repeatedly.
They believed the President had such strength.
"President, it’s already late, Brother Chen hasn’t returned yet, should we call him? Ask if he encountered any danger, and also to give him a heads-up?" Sun Wei asked cautiously.
"Okay."
Shi Tao nodded.
"Thank you."
"Not a problem, not at all."
Sun Wei waved his hand.
This wasn’t troublesome at all.
On the other side, Chen Fan also stopped the Celestial Response, showing a serious expression.
Apart from the strong presence he first sensed, he didn’t feel any other strong presences.
This was beyond his expectation.
According to Hua Jun, the Jiulong City Lord’s group was in the Martial Arts Association. If not there, they should be in Anshan City, right?
Yet, he didn’t sense their presence anywhere in Anshan City, only a presence not weaker than his, located in the Anshan City Martial Arts Association.
Many familiar presences were nearby, like Sun Wei, Xu Jie, and Gao Shan.
"Who is that person?"
Chen Fan was puzzled.
Hua Jun and others dared not speak or move, fearing to disturb the President’s thoughts.
But then, a phone vibration broke the silence.
Hua Jun quickly looked around to see who it was, but realized the sound was right in front of him.
"Okay, everyone disperse. Hua Jun, report today’s events to me later after organizing them."
Chen Fan said.
The phone vibration in his pocket hinted at what had happened.
He had a suspicion about the strong individual’s identity within the association.
As for the Jiulong City Lord’s group, they were probably gone.
Since that’s the case, he could report this without delay, procrastination would only arouse suspicion.
"Yes!"
Hua Jun nodded heavily.
"Okay."
Chen Fan acknowledged with a nod, then in the next moment, his figure vanished from everyone’s sight.
"The President is truly strong!"
Someone suddenly said.
"Yes, eight B-level Awakened couldn’t beat him."
"The President must be an A-level Awakened!"
After these words, the atmosphere became quiet again.
Everyone watched Chen Fan leave with eyes full of admiration.
Hua Jun felt fortunate.
Inviting him as President was a wise choice!
