"Go on."
Wang Ye spoke, while at the same time staying vigilant against the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior to prevent any surprise attacks from him.
"I..."
Just as the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior was about to speak, his body began to convulse violently. His already pale face instantly turned as black as ink.
His body twitched, and in an instant, he was dead.
The moment the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior exhibited symptoms, Wang Ye thought of intervening to save him. However, the poison's effect was simply too fast. Even if Wang Ye wanted to help, the poison's rapid effect meant he was somewhat powerless to do so.
All five Fourth Grade Martial Warriors were dead.
Looking at the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior who died in front of him, Wang Ye's expression was dark and grim.
The organization that had sent them to assassinate him was truly ruthless!
One must know that this was a Fourth Grade Martial Warrior, and yet they had been willing to kill him outright without any hesitation.
Not the slightest bit of reluctance.
However...
Wang Ye surveyed his surroundings. In the time it took the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior in front of him to utter those few words, the enemy had eliminated him. Was it because they were watching from nearby, or was there some other reason?
Although Wang Ye knew that under such circumstances, to be watching from nearby and killing the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior before he could even react, if there really was such a person around, then he would definitely be no match for them.
So it was likely that no such person appeared.
Yet, Wang Ye remained alert and cautious of his surroundings, not afraid of nothing, but in case there was something, then it would be troublesome for him!
While extending his spiritual power to probe the area, Wang Ye searched the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior's body and after some time, he found a tiny recorder.
Very small, it looked about the size of a fingernail and was adhered to the waist of the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior. If not for the thorough search, it would have been impossible to find this recorder.
This recorder seemed to be almost embedded within the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior's body. It must have been triggered by the voice of the Fourth Grade Martial Warrior just then, causing the poison already inside him to activate, killing him.
Wang Ye removed the recorder, disinfected it, and then pocketed it.
With this recorder in hand, he had a lead. Next, he could use it to find those plotting against him.
Wang Ye quickly left the scene. He had fired five gunshots earlier and it wouldn't be long before someone came to investigate. He had to leave before anyone arrived.
...
In the following half-month, Wang Ye became busy with the affairs of Suye Group and the Fang Family Jewelry Store.
Although the Suye Group had only been developing for a few months, its renown could now rival some of the national big brands, but in other aspects, it was not as strong yet.
Production couldn't keep up with demand.
So during this half-month, Wang Ye had been constantly on the move due to this issue, busy with the rapid and astonishing growth of the Suye Group.
And during this half-month, Wang Ye did not encounter any more assassination attempts against him.
Regarding the Xijiang Province Martial Arts Association, Wang Ye had successfully become the president of the Yuncheng Martial Arts Association.
For quite a long time, Wang Ye had wondered if the martial warriors from the Xijiang Province Martial Arts Association were targeting him because he had offended someone from there previously. However, after some thought, he concluded that this was unlikely.
After all, even if that person wanted to target him, it wouldn't be plausible to directly send five Fourth Grade Martial Warriors.
The gesture was too grand.
And he himself didn't have that kind of status.
Wang Ye only pondered this issue briefly before he dismissed it entirely.
"Director Wang."
During a rare few days of free time, someone knocked on the door of Wang Ye's office while he was playing some small games with Su Wanqing. After straightening out their clothes, and once Su Wanqing was seated beside him properly, Wang Ye finally said,
"Come in."
Upon completion of these words, Tan Long opened the door.
With a faint smile on his face and appearing to be in a good mood, Tan Long had several hickeys visible on his neck.
When Tan Long approached Wang Ye, he placed an invitation letter in front of him and spoke with a smile, "Director Wang, this is an invitation from the Xijiang Province Martial Arts Association, personally delivered by Chai Yan just now. He's been quite busy recently, so he didn't come up directly but asked me to deliver it."
While speaking, Tan Long could hardly suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth, giving off a very festive impression.
Wang Ye coughed twice, "Some marks on the neck should be covered at times, otherwise... it looks bad."
"Huh?"
Tan Long, initially not grasping Wang Ye's comment, finally realized what was meant after Wang Ye used his phone to take a picture for Tan Long. He hurriedly adjusted his collar upwards.
His face turned somewhat red.
"So, is there anything else, Director Wang? If not, I'll be on my way. I still need to handle some specifics regarding the partnership between Suye Group and Fang Family Jewelry Store."
"Go ahead, go ahead."
Wang Ye waved him off.
After Tan Long left Wang Ye's live brodcasting room, Su Wanqing at Wang Ye's side giggled and quipped,
"Ever since Tan Long started dating He Yutong, his mood has improved so much compared to before; it's just that he's been running to the Fang Family Jewelry Store more and more often. Since when has our partnership with the Fang Family Jewelry Store become so important?"
As Su Wanqing said this, her voice was filled with teasing. She talked about a business partnership, but everyone knew what Tan Long's real intentions were.
"As long as it doesn't delay any serious matters, let him be with these little things."
Wang Ye picked up the invitation and glanced at it; the event date set by the martial arts association was in three days.
"In three days..."
After pondering for a moment, Wang Ye stood up, "Let's go, let's see what Chai Yan has been up to lately."
