“Once the matter is resolved, I can help your Li family ascend from a second-rate family to a first-rate family.” Seeing Mr. Li still hesitating, Ji Chen didn’t think twice and extended an offer.

This was an offer Mr. Li couldn’t refuse, nor would he want to.

“Alright then, I will investigate this matter.” Sure enough, after hearing Ji Chen’s promise, Mr. Li gritted his teeth and agreed.

He had no choice; Ji Chen’s offer was too tempting to resist. An opportunity for such a promotion was rare and precious.

“In that case, I’ll take my leave now.” Mr. Li said respectfully, preparing to leave the room to start investigating the Tianji Pavilion.

“Wait, I have another question for you.” Ji Chen hurriedly called out to stop him.

“Is there something else, sir?” Mr. Li turned back, looking at Ji Chen with some confusion.

“Do you know where Jiang Che resides?” After a moment of silence, Ji Chen asked calmly.

He planned to have someone monitor Jiang Che and sneak into the Bihai Flower Villa to reunite with Ji Qingwan once Jiang Che was not around.

Considering their enmity, he couldn’t go there if Jiang Che was present. At this stage, he didn’t want to provoke Jiang Che, given the Jiang family’s background.

As for the humiliation from yesterday, although it filled him with hatred, he didn’t dwell on it. Not many people were present, and he trusted the ten war generals he brought wouldn’t gossip.

Patience is key to the greater plan; he had this much tolerance.

“He lives in Crouching Dragon Villa on the outskirts of Linjiang City, sir…” Mr. Li paused, his expression turning strange.

Why was Ji Chen asking this? Was he planning to go after Jiang Che? He wanted to advise against such impractical thoughts, considering the Jiang family’s dominance in Linjiang City and Jiang Che being its prince.

But fearing it might upset Ji Chen, he kept silent. After all, Ji Chen’s plans were none of his business.

“Crouching Dragon Villa, got it. You may leave now.” Ji Chen noticed Mr. Li’s odd expression but said nothing, waving him off.

After Mr. Li left, Ji Chen struggled to sit up in bed.

“Hiss…”

The excruciating pain in his arm made him gasp, his face turning pale. Although his arm was in a cast, full recovery in a short time was impossible.

Unless he had some miraculous medicine to aid his recovery. Thinking this, Ji Chen called out towards the ward’s door. He knew the warriors he brought were likely still nearby.

“God of War.” Sure enough, a few black-clad men entered shortly after Ji Chen called.

“Why are there only a few of you? Where are the others?” Ji Chen frowned, looking at the leader with confusion.

“The others were seriously injured by Jiang Che and are also recovering in this hospital.” The leader, Li Yuan, answered respectfully. He was the highest-ranking and most experienced among the warriors, and one of Ji Chen’s trusted confidants.

“This is outrageous!!” Hearing this, Ji Chen gritted his teeth in anger, his face turning red with fury.

Jiang Che really showed no respect for the God of War of the Northern Territory!

“Hiss…” Ji Chen’s anger aggravated his arm injury, causing him to groan in pain, his face contorting in agony.

“Please, God of War, don’t be angry. Your injuries are severe.” Seeing Ji Chen’s condition, Li Yuan advised gently.

“Bring me the Snow Spirit Pill I brought from the Northern Territory.” Ji Chen took a deep breath and instructed Li Yuan.

He had brought some sacred healing medicines from the Northern Territory to prevent any unforeseen incidents but didn’t think he would need them as soon as he arrived in Linjiang City…

Without hesitation, Li Yuan nodded and left the ward. He headed outside the hospital, as they had just arrived in Linjiang City yesterday and hadn’t booked a hotel. The items Ji Chen brought were stored in the Bentley that picked them up.

…

About ten minutes later, Li Yuan returned to the ward with a gray leather bag.

“Sir, here is what you requested.” He respectfully handed the bag to Ji Chen, without opening it on the way.

He knew the bag contained Ji Chen’s personal items and was not allowed to be inspected by others. Opening it without permission would have been an irreparable mistake.
