Chapter 1697: Chapter 1698: The Whole World Panics!
The third piece of news sparked two different reactions.
Those who knew Xiao Chen was the King Yama War God naturally understood that this was Dragon Country’s move to protect Xiao Chen.
Those who didn’t know Xiao Chen was the King Yama War God breathed a sigh of relief; otherwise, even if Xiao Chen were a nobody, just the title of King Yama War God alone could crush people.
These three pieces of news caused an uproar worldwide, as if the world was a pot of boiling oil.
Overseas individuals who knew Xiao Chen was the King Yama War God felt a little panicked.
Xiao Chen hadn’t died; if he regained his former strength, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Moreover, Dragon Country now had the Unparalleled War God Chen Ping’an.
Just a few days ago, Chen Ping’an had eradicated an overseas organization that threatened Dragon Country’s security, greatly boosting his reputation.
One King Yama War God was already enough to give people headaches.
Now there was an additional Unparalleled War God.
They absolutely could not allow the King Yama War God Xiao Chen to recover.
This was a consensus among all overseas individuals.
For a while, many countries and organizations began to take action.
Meanwhile, in Dragon Country, many people didn’t know Xiao Chen was the King Yama War God.
But they also didn’t want Xiao Chen to recover; otherwise, a second Xiao Family could be born.
They also began to stir.
Before Xiao Chen recovered, they wanted to ensure Xiao Chen truly died.
"So all the scoundrels and villains are on the move?"
Xiao Chen put down his phone.
The news was indeed quite lively.
"Come, let’s eat."
He looked at the family and felt even more resolute in his determination.
No matter what, in this lifetime, he was going to protect his family well.
In the Capital City, Chen Ping’an heard the news of Xiao Chen’s resurrection, his face somewhat gloomy, "He’s surprisingly still alive! He’s actually still alive!"
Towards Xiao Chen, he harbored a natural fear.
"War God, Xiao Chen is already a nobody; he’s useless alive."
The four Divine Generals said.
"No, you don’t understand, though he’s a nobody, with his talent, he could quickly rise again. I cannot be trampled by him a second time in this lifetime!"
Chen Ping’an said coldly.
"But War God, the higher-ups have already said, anyone who deals with the King Yama War God is a rebel, an enemy of Dragon Country. We can’t just make a move."
The four Divine Generals said.
"Hmph, we don’t need to rush; someone else will kill him for us. We just need to make the path easier."
Chen Ping’an snorted coldly, "Notify the Southern Chu Ancient Clan, tell them that the ones responsible for the deaths of Shang Liuyun and Elai are Xiao Chen. Although he didn’t do it directly, if he hadn’t faked his death, Shang Liuyun and Elai wouldn’t have been exposed.
Get the Ancient Clan to send people to kill him!"
"Understood!"
Meanwhile, similar words like these were unending all over the world.
"Xiao Chen is the King Yama War God; the King Yama War God absolutely cannot be allowed to recover. Kill him before he does!"
"Exactly, if someone that even the Demon King’s Temple couldn’t kill recovers, we won’t be able to survive in the future."
"Discuss the plan immediately, see how we can kill Xiao Chen without alerting Dragon Country."
Fear drove them to do this.
They did not want to see a living King Yama War God.
At that moment, at the March Group headquarters.
At the Orlando Group headquarters.
At the Langpu Group headquarters.
At the Blue Sky Association headquarters.
Such things were happening.
Pei Dayuan looked coldly at the people below, "This time, the affair is inseparable from that Xiao Chen; my son will not die in vain.
Investigate! Investigate thoroughly.
No matter who it is, I want them dead.
And that Xiao Chen, while he hasn’t recovered, find a way to capture him alive. I want him kneeling before me, admitting his guilt!"
Beihai Country Orlando Group, Orlando’s son inherited the position of group president.
And announced an in-depth investigation of the maritime cruise incident.
Demand that Dragon Country pay the price.
At this point, Southern Chu Ancient Clan also received Chen Ping’an’s report.
"Hmph, Shang Liuyun and Elai were both people of my Southern Chu Ancient Clan, and they were killed by mortals? Does my Southern Chu Ancient Clan care about face?
Investigate, find out who did it.
Once found, kill directly, no questioning!"
The Southern Chu Ancient Clan seemed secluded, but in reality, they managed their worldly industries through proxies.
Now, their most capable proxy, Shang Liuyun, was dead.
This was no small matter.
They sent more people to the Shang Clan, to reorganize the Shang Clan and investigate the causes of Elai’s and Shang Liuyun’s deaths.
Xiao Chen’s fake death caused a sensation.
Xiao Chen’s resurrection caused an even larger sensation.
In life or death, he seemed to always be the focus of the world.
Xiao Chen laughed, now happily accompanying his family for a meal—after enduring so many battles, a simple life like this was quite nice.
Xiao Yazi finally started kindergarten.
Right in the Longcheng Xinmeng Group kindergarten.
Xiao Chen tirelessly dropped her off and picked her up every day.
Previously when he saw others picking up their children, he truly found it interesting.
Now, he was also enjoying it.
Apart from the world news, there was also major news in Dragon Country.
Jiang Meng repurchased her own shares from the Xiao Corporation, and the Xinmeng Group began operating independently again, with Jiang Meng still as chairwoman.
This news quickly spread to the Jiang Clan.
The last time, due to Xiao Chen’s revenge, many from the Jiang Clan were killed or injured, and the family’s industries seriously shrank.
Luckily, Xiao Chen spared some mercy for Jiang Meng, not eradicating them completely.
Jiang Yurong, Jiang Wanying, and Jiang Cheng were spared death.
But the family was declining, forcing them to ally with the Fang Family.
Now, the two families had jointly opened a small company.
Just to make a living.
But being accustomed to a life of luxury, suddenly living like this, they found it truly hard to adapt.
They couldn’t accept it.
At this time, they heard the news that Jiang Meng had become the chairwoman of Xinmeng Group again.
For a moment, they had some thoughts.
"Wanying, go to Jiang Meng’s place and discuss cooperation with her. I believe she should agree, right? After all, blood is thicker than water."
Jiang Yurong said to Jiang Wanying.
She was afraid to lose face, so she sent her grandson.
"But Grandma, you know, what we did before really broke Jiang Meng’s heart; she won’t agree."
Jiang Wanying said with a bitter smile.
"Hmph, do you want your father or me to go and kneel before Jiang Meng to apologize?
If you hadn’t incited us, would we have done such things?
You must go and kneel if necessary to get Jiang Meng to change her mind!"
Jiang Yurong said with a cold snort.
Jiang Wanying was furious.
In his heart, he cursed the old lady to death.
It was obviously everyone’s decision, why put the blame all on him.
But he had no choice; if he didn’t go, they might not even have this place to stay, perhaps forced to wander outside.
"Fine, I’ll go!"
Jiang Wanying immediately headed to Longcheng, to Jiang Meng’s community.
At the community gate, Jiang Wanying was stopped.
He could only call Jiang Meng.
But when Xiao Chen saw it was Jiang Wanying’s call, he immediately took over, "Get lost immediately, if you don’t want to die, then stay away from my home in the future.
You know very well what you have done. Don’t think just because I’ve become a nobody I can’t deal with you now.
You should know that money can make the Devil turn millstones!
I have plenty of money!"
