The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 803 - 799: Killing Intent
Chapter 803: Chapter 799: Killing Intent
Cui Xiang Tower in Sanzhou City is a highly reputable restaurant, especially for a few of its signature dishes that are greatly sought after by customers, and the antique decor within Cui Xiang Tower attracts an endless stream of guests with its unique charm.
In the Heavenly Room No. 2 private room of Cui Xiang Tower, the dining table was laden with over a dozen exquisite dishes, offering a feast for the senses.
Ye Chenfeng, Xia Zining, Li Pangzi, and Hua Xiaorong were seated around the table. It was Li Pangzi who suggested coming to Cui Xiang Tower after hearing that Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining had not yet eaten.
Li Pangzi poured a full glass of red wine for Ye Chenfeng and then poured one for himself as well. He raised his glass towards Ye Chenfeng and said, "Boss, it’s been a long time since we last sat down to eat together. This glass of wine is to you from me, Li Pangzi."
Li Pangzi downed the red wine in his glass in one gulp.
Without saying another word, Ye Chenfeng also downed a glass of red wine in one go and asked, "Li Pangzi, how has the Tengtian Pharmaceutical Factory you manage been developing recently? Also, how far has the Innovative Technology Internet Company I left to Monkey progressed?"
When Ye Chenfeng asked these two questions, he felt somewhat embarrassed. He had utterly let go as the shopkeeper, entrusting the total management of the Tengtian Pharmaceutical Factory to Li Pangzi, and he had given Monkey a lot of advanced materials for network software development to start his own Internet company.
Mention of work made Li Pangzi immediately switch to a more serious demeanor as he replied, "Boss, Tengtian Pharmaceutical Factory has been developing exceptionally well recently. It’s fair to say that our pharmaceutical factory is even more outstanding than a money-printing machine, almost monopolizing domestic drug production. Next, I’m planning to truly break into the international drug market."
"As for the Innovative Technology Internet Company managed by Monkey, it’s also thriving. Its profits are not one bit less than those of Tengtian Pharmaceutical. Each quarter, Monkey and I transfer the earnings to your bank card, boss. By now, there should be at least seven or eight billion in your account."
"There would have been more, but currently, Tengtian Pharmaceutical and Innovative Technology Internet Company are still expanding, which requires significant ongoing investment."
After listening to Li Pangzi’s report, Ye Chenfeng was very satisfied and said, "Li Pangzi, I know you and Monkey must be working very hard. I’ve indeed been too hands-off as shopkeeper, so I’ve decided to give you one-fifth of Tengtian Pharmaceutical’s shares, and one-fifth of Innovative Technology Internet Company’s shares to Monkey."
"No, boss, I can’t accept this, and I’m sure Monkey wouldn’t either," Li Pangzi immediately declined. He was acutely aware that one-fifth of Tengtian Pharmaceutical’s shares was a staggering amount, and he owed his current position to boss Ye Chenfeng. How could he possibly accept those shares?
Seeing Li Pangzi’s resolute expression, Ye Chenfeng internally shook his head with a wry smile. Li Pangzi and Monkey were utterly loyal to him, and he had always been quite generous with his brothers. Nowadays, money was simply a number to Ye Chenfeng.
Giving out shares of Tengtian Pharmaceutical and Innovative Technology Internet Company to Li Pangzi and Monkey wasn’t urgent at the moment. He would bring up the matter again when he saw Monkey next time, so Ye Chenfeng didn’t say much more and casually added, "Alright, we’ll talk about this later. I’m heading back to Capital City tomorrow. How much longer will you stay in Sanzhou City, Li Pangzi?"
"Boss, the branch factory here in Sanzhou City is still under construction. I was planning to head back to Capital City in a couple of days as well. Since you and sister-in-law are returning to Capital City tomorrow, why don’t I join you?" said Li Pangzi.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Xia Zining, who was busy eating, heard Li Pangzi refer to her as sister-in-law again, blushed beet red, and in her nervousness, choked on her food, coughing violently.
Ye Chenfeng didn’t bother to clarify his relationship with Xia Zining any further, as some things become more troublesome the more one explains. He simply said with a smile, "Then let’s all head back to Capital City together tomorrow."
...
Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining, among others, were dining at Cui Xiang Tower while the top forces of the Ancient Martial World were in chaos.
In the council hall of Tianshan Sect.
The Sect Master of Yun Tian Sect, which was a first-rate power, Wang Zhongtian; the Sect Leader of Tianshan Sect, Fang Zhiyong; the Great Elder of Tianshan Sect, Qiu Yuanlong; the one-armed Second Elder, Lu Douwen, who had lost his left arm; and the Sect Leader of the Myriad Poison Sect, Kang Baiyin, were all present.
Their expressions were incredibly grim. Ye Chenfeng had killed the young Sect Master of Yun Tian Sect. The son of the Tianshan Sect Leader, the grandson and grandchild of the Great Elder of Tianshan Sect, as well as two Elders and two disciples in the Innate Realm, had also been slain by Ye Chenfeng.
As for the Myriad Poison Sect, not only had their treasure vault been burned down by Ye Chenfeng, but two of their Elders had also been killed by him, dealing a severe blow to the sect’s vitality.
So, how could the mood of those present be any good? Especially the Second Elder of Tianshan Sect, Lu Douwen, who had been outfoxed by Ye Chenfeng and lost an arm. His hatred for Ye Chenfeng had reached its pinnacle.
These days, these three major sects had been searching nonstop in the top forces of the Ancient Martial World for Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining’s whereabouts, even sealing off all the exits. Unfortunately, Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining were one step ahead of these three major sects; they had secretly left the Ancient Martial World by the time the sects had blocked the exits.
"Sect Master Wang, continuing to search like this is not a solution. That little beast, Ye Chenfeng, might have already left the Ancient Martial World. We are simply wasting our time," said Kang Baiyin, the Sect Leader of Myriad Poison Sect, addressing Wang Zhongtian, whose status was the highest among those present. He spoke through gritted teeth, as he had initially targeted Ye Chenfeng only to end up shooting himself in the foot.
"Leader Kang is right. That little beast, Ye Chenfeng, is sneaky and cunning. If that little beast falls into my hands, I will make sure to flay and debone him," said the one-armed Second Elder of Tianshan Sect, Lu Douwen, with his angry lips twitching nonstop.
Wang Zhongtian’s eyes, although exceedingly dark, did not lose control like the others. It was no wonder he was the Sect Master of a first-rate power. After pondering for a moment, he spoke with an icy and harsh tone, "Lately, our search for Ye Chenfeng has caused quite a stir among the top forces, attracting a lot of attention from other sects!"
"Moreover, among the top forces, there is a restriction that disciples under our sects cannot enter the Secular World."
Upon hearing this, the Sect Leader of the Myriad Poison Sect, Kang Baiyin, immediately became anxious and asked, "Sect Master Wang, are we just going to let Ye Chenfeng go like this?"
"Heh!" Wang Zhongtian sneered and said, "Let Ye Chenfeng go? I have no such intention. First, we shall continue to search for Ye Chenfeng’s traces here among the top forces. Although we cannot step into the Secular World, people from the first and second-rate powers can."
"Let them go to the Secular World to investigate for us. If Ye Chenfeng truly has returned to the Secular World, we will then find a way to capture him and bring him back to the Ancient Martial World. We’ll make sure that Ye Chenfeng dies in endless agony."
The Sect Leader of Tianshan Sect, Fang Zhiyong, who had been silent up until now, nodded in strong agreement after hearing Wang Zhongtian’s words and said, "Sect Master Wang is correct; we must be patient in dealing with Ye Chenfeng. Step by step, with the power of our three major sects, a mere Ye Chenfeng will eventually fall into our hands."
"Ye Chenfeng must die! His family members must die too! We shall let Ye Chenfeng watch with his own eyes as his family members die before him. I believe that will cause him immense pain," Kang Baiyin said with a cold smile.
"Let’s settle it for now. We will continue searching for Ye Chenfeng’s traces here among the top forces, and then contact the people from the first and second-rate forces to take a trip to the Secular World," Wang Zhongtian declared conclusively.
"Good, let’s reach out to the people from the first and second-rate forces. Leave this matter to us, Tianshan Sect. If we make the request, I’m sure that the sects from those powers will come to us like fawning dogs, eager to lick our boots," said Fang Zhiyong, the Sect Leader of Tianshan Sect.
