Chapter 785 Joint Effort
Chen Yang felt that his own master alone had already surpassed many martial artists.
"Just say a few less words! If I had your foundation, I might be able to advance even faster."
After being retorted by Chen Yang, Bei Xuan immediately fell silent.
However, Chen Yang changed the subject and asked somewhat curiously, "Luo Yanghong is holding some kind of conference in Modu and invited our company to attend. Can you investigate it for me?"
Bei Xuan naturally did not refuse Chen Yang's request.
It was a simple matter to investigate what Luo Yanghong was doing in Modu; there was no problem at all.
In fact, even if Chen Yang asked Bei Xuan to teach the other party a lesson, Bei Xuan would not refuse, because Chen Yang now held a very significant trump card.
Not only was Bei Xuan watching Chen Yang, but the other several War Gods were also doing the same.
Luo Yanghong's identity might be very sensitive, but in the eyes of the War Gods, he was merely a troublesome figure, not someone they couldn't handle.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yang immediately arranged all the matters he had at hand.
On one hand, Chen Yang was waiting for Bei Xuan's news, and on the other hand, he was working with the Bronze Tree to research breakthroughs.
However, the two of them did not spend a lot of time together each day.
Chen Yang also had to take out some time to personally train Hu Feng, and pull Zhang Dao and Wu Bandao along with them.
Zhang Dao and Wu Bandao initially paid no attention to Hu Feng, whom Chen Yang valued so much.
It wasn't until Chen Yang had the two of them spar with Hu Feng that Zhang Dao and Wu Bandao were completely subdued.
"Big Brother, why do I always feel like things haven't been going smoothly for us since we came to Qingzhou City? We've already lost to women twice!"
Wu Bandao vividly remembered the time he nearly had an arm disabled by Zhu Que when they fought.
Now that Zhu Que was gone, Hu Feng suddenly appeared.
"Old Wu, have you forgotten an old saying? If Heaven does not give birth to me..."
"What are you talking about, Big Brother! That's 'If You Was Born, Why Was Zhou Yu Born!'"
As they were talking, Chen Yang could only look at Hu Feng helplessly and say, "Besides training, try to have less contact with these two people at other times."
Chen Yang was genuinely afraid that Hu Feng would get too close to these two and her intelligence would plummet.
Days went by, and as the conference date approached, even Su Ya couldn't help but inquire about Chen Yang's preparations.
Many companies would be participating in this conference, and if any mishaps occurred, Yangyangyang Company might get into trouble.
"It's been so long, why haven't I seen you send anyone out?"
Su Ya assumed that for this conference, Chen Yang would deploy most of the company's personnel. After all, she had taken a rough look at the conference venue, and it was quite large.
Such a large venue would definitely require a considerable number of security personnel.
But after observing for the past few days, the company seemed to have the same few faces working internally.
Chen Yang didn't seem to be taking this matter to heart at all!
"Chen Yang, I know you have some issues with Luo Yanghong, but work is work. Don't underestimate this conference. I heard from Liu Ran that besides the surface-level discussions, there will also be in-depth private consultations on current market issues. Several companies are preparing to jointly establish platform regulations."
"It's inevitable that someone will cause trouble at such a time!"
Chen Yang had heard a little about what Su Ya said.
However, regarding Su Ya's statement that he hadn't sent anyone, Chen Yang smiled and said, "Who told you I haven't sent anyone? The people I've sent are all ready. The contract states that we must have the venue ready two days in advance. Don't worry that people from several companies haven't arrived yet; we've actually started acting long ago. Some equipment debugging, etc., are all being protected by my people."
Su Ya looked at Chen Yang with surprise, saying somewhat incredulously, "Then, does this mean you're not planning to go yourself this time?"
Chen Yang shrugged helplessly, a wry smile on his face, "I am going, why wouldn't I? When you and Liu Ran go, I'll accompany you."
"As for the on-site security, others will be responsible."
At this moment, at the Modu conference venue, Bei Xuan was looking at the blueprints with frustration and said, "What kind of blueprint is this! Can't they find the latest one? The doors and windows here are already sealed. What if something happens?"
"Didn't they say the Heavenly Doctor Hall has the latest blueprints? Why didn't you ask them for a copy?"
The general who was asked could only lower his head in silence.
They were people with dignity; if they couldn't even handle such a simple matter and had to ask the Heavenly Doctor Hall for help, they would lose face if word got out.
Bei Xuan, however, was furious. He reached out and tapped the other person's head, saying, "Can't you think properly? We're here to do work for them, so we should ask for what we need. Since they've already made a latest map, why bother looking for old ones? And this map is no good! Alright, hurry up and go!"
Old Teng from the Heavenly Doctor Hall, who was eavesdropping nearby, was actually quite nervous. He had originally come to Modu only to complete the preliminary reconnaissance mission.
He had not expected his boss to suddenly assign him the responsibility of managing the entire Modu operation.
This had greatly increased the pressure on Old Teng, especially since the other group he was cooperating with was led by War God Bei Xuan and his generals.
Although War God Bei Xuan appeared friendly on the surface, Old Teng was an old member of the Heavenly Doctor Hall and had collaborated with the War Gods many times. He had witnessed their ferocity firsthand when they went berserk.
Old Teng couldn't quite understand why his boss had suddenly put him in charge of overall conference security.
Moreover, the people assigned to him were so few...
The team brought by War God Bei Xuan had over a hundred people.
Just then, Bei Xuan quietly approached Old Teng and whispered, "You used to be under Zhu Que, didn't you? I remember Chen Yang and Zhu Que both called you Old Teng?"
As Bei Xuan spoke, he even took out a cigarette and offered it to him.
Old Teng quickly accepted it and replied somewhat sheepishly, nodding at Bei Xuan, "I didn't expect War God Bei Xuan to still remember this old fellow like me."
As he spoke, Old Teng waved his hand to the few people from the Heavenly Doctor Hall beside him, signaling them to leave.
Once everyone had left, Bei Xuan finally revealed his true intentions and, lowering his voice, asked, "I heard Zhu Que has left the Heavenly Doctor Hall, so are you taking her place?"
Upon hearing this, Old Teng almost dropped the cigarette in his hand, and cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead.
"Good heavens, War God Bei Xuan, you mustn't speak such words carelessly!"
