Chapter 589 The Zhou Family
The martial artists of the Zhou family looked at the yellow dust before them with some confusion. They had seen him before.
On the first day the Ganshen team arrived in Modu, they went to the Modu Association.
In the hearts of the Zhou family martial artists, Huang Chen was an old man guarding the gate.
No matter how powerful his strength had been in the past, Huang Chen was now just a frail individual.
But now, the internal energy erupting from his body was far more than that.
Grandmaster!
The Zhou family martial artists immediately reacted: "You are a Grandmaster martial artist! Huang Chen, how dare you deceive the Association!"
The entire Association was not allowed to have extremely powerful martial artists. Since Huang Chen possessed Grandmaster strength but still hid in the Modu Association, this was a grave offense.
Huang Chen sneered at these martial artists, ignoring them. Instead, he turned to Chen Yang and cupped his fists, "Young friend Chen, great kindness needs no words. This is Modu, and matters related to the Association are handled by me. I hope you can forgive me."
"It's nothing, just some noisy ants," Chen Yang said indifferently. These martial artists before him were too weak for him to care about.
Hearing Chen Yang's words, Huang Chen also chuckled.
Seeing Chen Yang, who was surrounded, dared to mock their weakness, the Zhou family martial artists could no longer contain themselves.
"Attack! Slay Chen Yang and capture the traitor of the Association, and you shall be rewarded with a spirit fruit!"
The next second, the Zhou family martial artists simultaneously attacked Chen Yang and Huang Chen.
They were martial artists, that was true, but today they were facing Huang Chen, whose body had recovered!
A Grandmaster expert!
Huang Chen didn't use any movement techniques. Each time he struck, someone would fall to the ground.
In an instant, more than half of the Zhou family martial artists were lying on the ground.
The leading martial artist of the Zhou family no longer dared to advance. He had thought Huang Chen was merely using a burst of internal energy to scare them, but he never expected the man to have truly recovered.
Seeing that the other party did not advance further, Huang Chen coldly unleashed his killing intent: "Are you not going to scram yet!"
The remaining Zhou family martial artists looked at each other. In the end, they could only carry away the fallen and leave.
Huang Chen had already been quite lenient. These individuals only suffered superficial injuries and no bone-deep harm.
Chen Yang also noticed that Huang Chen did not wish to harm them, and his brow furrowed. It seemed Huang Chen knew them.
"Thank you, Senior Huang. If there's nothing else, I'll be going back now."
Chen Yang did not bother to ask Huang Chen about the identity of these martial artists. If the other party was willing to speak, they naturally would.
Seeing Chen Yang about to leave so quickly, Huang Chen immediately stopped him, saying with some hesitation, "Young friend Chen, if you don't mind, would you care to sit at my place for a while?"
"Another day," Chen Yang said, not having the leisure to play guessing games. The entire company was still waiting for his safe return.
With his prolonged silence, Liu Ran and the others who stayed behind at the company must have received news.
Only by showing himself as soon as possible could he reassure them.
Seeing this, Huang Chen could only sigh faintly. He looked at Chen Yang with genuine emotion, saying bitterly, "Young friend Chen, the prescription you gave me was indeed effective. After the medicinal bath, although I haven't fully recovered, I can still exert some internal energy."
"I, Huang Chen, have lived for decades and owe many people favors. Don't mention a drop of kindness; this is like being given a new path. According to reason, I should repay you, Young friend Chen, even at the cost of my life."
"But..."
Seeing the other party's evident struggle, Chen Yang looked him up and down and smiled, "Didn't you already repay me just now?"
"You also said that my medicinal bath can only restore you temporarily. Every time you use internal energy, it places a great burden on your body. Use it a few more times, and even my prescription won't save you."
"Besides, you also drank a pot of tea earlier. There's no need for further words."
A prescription was just a trivial matter for Chen Yang, the Medical Saint Celestial Venerable.
Moreover, when Chen Yang gave him the prescription, it wasn't for any repayment, but because of that pot of spirit tea.
Seeing that Chen Yang's eyes showed no displeasure, Huang Chen felt even worse.
The more magnanimous Chen Yang was, the more self-reproach Huang Chen felt.
Seeing that Chen Yang was really leaving, Huang Chen gritted his teeth and said word by word, "Young friend Chen, I don't know who is behind the scheme against you, but I do recognize those martial artists from earlier. This is also why I didn't go for the kill just now."
"These martial artists are not from any sect, but from a family, a powerful family."
"The Zhou family!"
Chen Yang's eyes narrowed when he heard these two words.
Although Huang Chen didn't know who killed the foreign reporter, the fact that these people came to ambush him today indicated they were all connected.
"So it's the Zhou family. Thank you, Senior Huang Chen."
Huang Chen was truly dumbfounded by Chen Yang's composed demeanor: "You, you, you, don't you know the Zhou family? They are not simply powerful secular families. Their martial artists are all over the place. Those martial artists from earlier were just some errand boys in the Zhou family."
"Alas! Although I don't know how you got into trouble, Young friend Chen, don't worry, I will do my best to mediate this matter."
Chen Yang did not offer much explanation, because no matter how powerful the Zhou family was, Chen Yang would not let them off.
Upon returning to the Modu Grand Hotel, Chen Yang saw the management of Yangyangyang Company gathered in the lobby.
Even Liu Ran and Lin Yueyu were present.
Several women were gathered together, discussing something.
They didn't initially pay attention to the cold wind blowing in from the entrance, but the wolf children immediately got up.
"Brother Chen is back."
As soon as this was said, everyone in the hall stood up.
Liu Ran immediately ran over, and Chen Yang pulled her into his arms, saying softly, "Why are you here?"
Tears streamed down Liu Ran's face as she buried her head in Chen Yang's chest, "Such a big thing has happened, how could I not come?"
Meng Qingxue and the others also approached Chen Yang. Just as she was about to ask Chen Yang how he got out, she quickly shut her mouth. In such a situation, asking that would earn her the resentment of these women.
"Alright, alright, since Chen Yang is back, let's not linger here. What time is it?"
Chen Yang looked at the wolf children and pretended to be stern, "Aren't you going to rest? Are you still playing football tomorrow?"
Under Coach Kaki's urging, the wolf children finally returned to their rooms to rest.
Zhou Shanshan said with dissatisfaction, "They were all worried about you."
Chen Yang could only say helplessly, "Worry can lead to chaos. It's best for them to rest well and play football. As for you, as a psychological expert, this is when you should show your great power and stabilize the situation. Yet, you're crying?"
