"What's going on? Why are so many cultivators entering Linjiang City?" The Chen Family members were a bit stunned.

Of course, experts have already been dispatched from above. As long as these people don't harm regular folks, whatever they do will be overlooked.

"Find this person." The man distributed the photos. If Luo Chao were standing in front of them right now, he'd surely be surrounded and attacked.

"Who are you?" Old Wang stood atop the tree, looking at the man while releasing his aura.

"A strong aura indeed. Seems like you're from the special forces sent by the state. However, we're here to find someone due to a private feud. Once resolved, we'll leave you alone."

A photo flew over, and Old Wang caught it. He was a bit stunned upon seeing the image. Wasn't this Luo Chao? He never expected him to stir such trouble; it seems Linjiang City will face a storm.

"Do you know this person?" Seeing Old Wang's reaction to the photo, the man asked sullenly.

"I've seen him in the city. He's young, but his strength exceeds mine, so I didn't bother him."

Old Wang tossed the photo back. A powerful blast of True Qi sent the man flying backward a considerable distance before he stopped.

"And is that how you treat a senior? If not for the face of your sect, I'd have taken your life without hesitation."

Old Wang said angrily, thinking these people deserved to get beaten by Luo Chao for their arrogance.

The man was infuriated but held back. If he acted rashly, he could be labeled a threat.

Moreover, offending the entire cultivation realm would leave even his sect powerless to protect him; he'd just be an abandoned pawn then.

After a moment's thought, he humbled himself.

"I'm sorry, senior, I've been rude. Thanks for the information; I'm deeply grateful."

Old Wang nodded in satisfaction: "That's more becoming of a disciple from a respectable sect. Now go. If I see this person again, I'll surely tell him you're looking for him."

The man was at a loss for words and could only excuse himself with a few sentences.

"You old man, just relying on your age. When I reach your age, I'll be the one knocking your teeth out."

He was upset but understood he couldn't win against his opponent yet, so he chose to leave.

"Tell everyone in Linjiang City not to cause trouble, or the sect won't avenge them if they die."

The group was stunned; such a powerful sect wouldn't avenge them? It seems upper management has intervened directly this time.

They were clearly siding with the other party. If they supported us, they could've arranged direct talks, no need for all this maneuvering.

The afternoon passed quickly. Yuanyuan stayed at home all day, acting like a total shut-in.

Which made Luo Chao curious. Normally she'd be out having fun, so why stay home on a weekend?

But it worked out. He immersed himself in meditation. Though he reached the Tenth Layer, Luo Chao knew it was just the beginning; the road ahead was tougher.

Even with a tenth-level strength, Luo Chao realized he couldn't beat that old man and had to keep training.

After finishing a round of Circulation of Celestial Energy, Luo Chao checked the time; it was about right. He changed and stood up.

"Luo Chao, you know the time, huh? Nevermind, let's drive." Yuanyuan complained a bit seeing Luo Chao arrive on time. Couldn't he come a bit early?

"Let's go, keeping Mr. Gao Shilong waiting is a crime." Chen Xiaoqi laughed, contemplating where to play next after dealing with this oblivious teacher.

"We'll be near the Han Family soon; maybe we should go somewhere else instead." Chen Xiaoqi suggested excitedly.

"Where could we go for fun?" Yuanyuan had no objections but finding a good place was tricky.

Luo Chao stayed silent as they planned, knowing he'd tag along wherever they went.

"Why isn't she here yet?" Gao Shilong paced at the hotel entrance. Would she stand him up?

Everything was ready, if she didn't come it'd be amusing. Gao Shilong manipulated all checkpoints, waiting for Yuanyuan to fall into the trap.

The cost for all this setup was no joke. If Yuanyuan doesn't show, he won't have this opportunity again anytime soon.

"Mr. Gao Shilong, the boss says let him know when it starts." Gao Shilong nodded.

"They're here, we can begin." The waiter hadn't left when Gao already saw Yuanyuan's car arrive from afar.

As expected, Chen Xiaoqi, Yuanyuan, and Luo Chao got out. Chen Xiaoqi was stunning; as for Luo Chao, he was already a dead man in Gao's eyes.

Just a dead man, so what if he's annoying? Gao Shilong even ignored him.

This drug could knock out an elephant; surely it could handle a punk. If not, he'd ruin that store owner completely.

Daring to sell fake drugs to the son of Inspector Gao—what's the difference from seeking death?

"Come in, everyone." The waiter glanced at Yuanyuan, leading the four into a private room...

Yuanyuan and the others entered. Her snowy white dress made her appear sanctified, yet the more pure she seemed, the more filthy Gao's thoughts became.

Rubbing his hands, he knew Yuanyuan wouldn't escape today, and it was a buy-one-get-one-free deal—truly a bargain.

"Yuanyuan, you're here! Please sit, waiter, bring the menu." Gao quickly hosted, while glaring at Luo Chao.

"Yuanyuan, shouldn't your bodyguard sit elsewhere? How can a dog dine with its master?"

Gao's eyes were full of provocation, even some murderous intent, but in Luo Chao's eyes, it was child's play.
