"Don't worry, Master Kang. I will figure it out! I will inform you as soon as I have any news! "Gu Baixian said emotionally.
The incomplete map of the Ruins of Immortality was too valuable. It was related to the secret realm of the Ruins of Immortality.
He had heard that many martial arts families were looking for it. Jiang Tian had given him a copy, which showed his trust in Chen Fan.
Gu Baixian's room was fully equipped with all kinds of office equipment. After Gu Baixian gave him a copy, Jiang Tian put away the incomplete map of the Ruins of Immortality.
…
After Jiang Tian left, Chen Zifan walked out of the clubhouse in a daze. He immediately called his grandfather, but Uncle Zhong, the old man beside his grandfather, Chen Qingshan, said that his grandfather didn't have time to talk to him. He asked him to rush back to Beijing overnight to hold a family meeting.
Just when he wanted to ask what was going on, Uncle Zhong said that he had a lot of things to do and hung up the phone.
Chen Zifan was suspicious. He called his partner and asked him to send him to the airport. He then took a helicopter back to Yan Jin to meet the family head.
It was already past midnight when he arrived in Yan Jin. However, the meeting hall of the Chen family was still brightly lit and many senior members of the Chen family were present.
Chen Zifan didn't dare to say anything. He only greeted Uncle Zhong and sat down quietly.
Smoke lingered in the large conference hall. Everyone's ashtray was filled with cigarette butts, and there was a gloomy atmosphere in the room.
"Is it true that Kang Tae-chu defeated the 28th Mixed Brigade of the Japan Self-Defense Forces?"
Chen Qingshan, who was seated at the head of the table, said with a solemn expression.
"The Mitsui family and a few other tycoons have already stopped working with us. They said that if we don't repair our relationship with Kang Tae-chu, we won't be able to work with them in the future. However, these tycoons aren't willing to disclose any information! "Chen Zifan's second uncle said with a dark face.
Hearing this, everyone at the scene frowned. Their faces turned ugly.
Most of the Chen family's family businesses were import and export agents for Japanese companies, raw material suppliers, and OEM companies. These businesses accounted for 80% of the family businesses. If the cooperation was terminated, the family businesses would only exist in name.
Fourth Uncle, who was serving in the military, said with a solemn expression, "But I heard from the Long Formation that Japan has indeed sent out 28 Mixed Brigades. Kang Tae-chu is still alive, but I don't know the other details!"
"Didn't you contact Cao Shixiong and Ye Zhantian? Cao Shixiong is in charge of the Martial Artist Special Forces. The two of them should know about this! "Chen Qingshan asked.
"I did, but the other party refused to give me any information on the grounds that it was confidential …" Fourth Uncle said with a bitter smile.
"Hmph!" Chen Qingshan snorted coldly. He looked displeased, but he did not say anything else.
"Kang Tae-chu is still alive? Could he have surrendered to the Japanese military? Is he being detained by the Japanese Self-Defense Forces? "
This time, it was Chen Zijing, Chen Xuejiao's father, who spoke. "Can we persuade the Japanese cabinet to execute Kang Tae-chu? We have to avenge Xuejiao's death! "
"Idiot!"
Chen Qingshan's eyes flashed, and then he cursed, "If Kang Tae-chu is being controlled by the Japanese, then why would the Mitsui Group want us to mend our relationship with Kang Tae-chu? Is there a need for that? "
Then, Chen Zifan mustered up his courage and said, "Grandpa, Kang Tae-chu is still alive. I just saw him in Zhong Hai …"
"Hmm? He is still alive? And he has already returned to Hua Xia! "
When everyone heard this, their hearts skipped a beat, as if they had fallen into an abyss.
If Kang Tae-chu was able to escape unscathed after the Japanese Self-Defense Forces had sent out 28 Mixed Brigades, then his strength was truly terrifying.
It was not impossible for him to kill a few members of the Chen family, or even destroy the entire Chen family if he wanted to.
To the Chen family, Chen Xuejiao was killed, but they did not even have the courage to avenge her death.
Even Chen Qingshan's expression changed drastically. He was so gloomy that water could be wrung from his face. Frowning, he asked, "What's going on? Why did you run into him? "
"Please punish me, grandpa. I just wanted to avenge Xuejiao's death and bring glory to the family …" Chen Zifan knelt on the ground.
Although Chen Zifan knew that it was a serious offense to act on his own without the permission of the family, he had to tell his grandpa everything.
"You said that even the Armor Piercing Sword Talisman couldn't kill him? He even clamped it in his hand! Was it a Sword Talisman or a Qi Blade? "
Fourth Uncle frowned and asked. He was in charge of the family's intelligence network, and he had to know every detail.
He had been wrong about Jiang Tian's information. Back then, he estimated that Jiang Tian was only half a step away from the Immortal State, but Jiang Tian had already reached the Immortal State when he killed the Origin of Sword God's Palace.
"Fourth Uncle, I am not lying! He managed to activate the Sword Talisman and clamped down on the Qi Blade! I was only three meters away from him when he activated the Sword Talisman. It took him less than a second to activate the Sword Talisman! He even used his bare hands to destroy the evidence. Not even a drop of blood or a strand of hair was left behind … "
Even though a few hours had passed, even though he had returned home and returned to his base, Chen Zifan still had lingering fears and couldn't help but tremble when he recalled the scene.
Everyone present couldn't help but cry out in alarm, and their faces suddenly became as pale as paper.
Uncle Zhong, who was at the peak of Transcendent State, took a deep breath and said, "That was a Jade Essence Sword Talisman from Mount Shu. It could even kill an Immortal State warrior at such a close distance! But … "He shook his head slowly.
Chen Qingshan glanced at Chen Zifan and wanted to ask him what he had found out about Singapore. However, he was afraid that he would not be able to find out anything since the order had just been issued.
Fourth Uncle was on tenterhooks. Although Father didn't say anything, the disappointment in his eyes was obvious. He had indeed neglected his duty. Back then, he had said that the Dragon-snaring Lasso and Heart-burning Five Poison Tea should be able to restrain Jiang Taichu. In the end, Jiang Taichu had broken free as soon as he arrived on the Great East Asia, causing Chen Xuejiao to be killed.
He made up his mind to dig out the details of the battle between the 28th mixed regiment and Jiang Tian. He had to fully evaluate his combat strength and not make any mistakes.
Chen Qingshan turned around and looked at Chen Zifan who was still kneeling on the ground. "Zifan, he let you go just like that? As far as I know, this brat is completely unbridled and fearless! He had killed Xuejiao. Although Qin Zongheng claimed that it was an accident, someone from the Condor Unit told me the truth. Xuejiao was strangled to death by Kang Tae-chu! "
"He said, he said …"
Chen Zifan looked at Chen Qingshan in panic. He gritted his teeth and said, "He said that destroying the Chen Family is just a matter of him! He told the Chen Family not to mess with him. Otherwise, he will make the Chen Family disappear from the world … "
Bang!
Chen Qingshan heavily slammed the table, causing the teacups and ashtrays on the table to jump up. A majestic anger enveloped his face, and his slightly widened eyes were filled with a piercingly cold expression.
"Arrogant! How arrogant! "
"Destroy the Chen Family? How arrogant!"
"The Chen Family is one of the seven major families in Yan Jin. We control the foreign trade department and are a family of martial arts arbitrators. Kang Tae-chu is nothing!"
"I suggest that we stop the overseas business of the Medicine King Group. Aren't they going to expand overseas?"
Before Chen Qingshan could say anything, the group of Chen Clan disciples exploded. Eldest Uncle Chen Zijing, in particular, flew into a rage.
Only Uncle Zhong remained silent. He shook his head at Chen Qingshan with a solemn expression. How could the Chen family be a match for someone who could take on an army head-on?
No one had expected that Chen Qingshan would actually calm down at this moment.
He took a sip of tea, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice, "Jiang Taichu defeated Japan this time, and everyone in the martial arts world admires him. He has received too much support. I think it's better to wait for the results of a comprehensive investigation before making a decision!"
Fourth Uncle said, "Yes, that's what I think too. Kang Tae-chu is nothing to be afraid of, but he has formed the Heavenly Alliance and has Ye Zhantian's support. We need to consider this carefully. I will report to my father as soon as the investigation results are out. We will have a family meeting then! "
"Meeting adjourned!" When Chen Qingshan said these two words, he felt depressed. He was so angry that his hands were trembling.
Only he knew that even though the Chen Family was one of the seven major families in Yan Jin, they could not do anything to Kang Tae-chu.
Moreover, not only could he not do anything to Jiang Tian, he might even have to submit to Jiang Tian. Otherwise, many of the Chen Family's businesses with close ties to Japan would go bankrupt.
Thinking of this, he could not help but glare at Fourth Uncle angrily. He had misjudged Kang Tae-chu's strength and insisted on cooperating with Japan to capture Kang Tae-chu. Now, he had shot himself in the foot!
…
The task of Gu Baixian's team was to identify, register, value, and repackage all the antiques returned by Japan before shipping them to the Palace Museum.
Although there were dozens of experts working together and graduate students like Zhang Yilin and Gu Qingcheng helping, it still took at least a week.
In the next few days, Jiang Tian accompanied Zhang Yilin to go shopping and sightseeing in Zhong Hai while she was at work.
He always felt that he owed this little girl too much. Seeing her happy smile, Jiang Tian felt that he had made it up to her.
However, Jiang Tian was not idle either. He had cultivated for thousands of years and had developed the habit of working hard at all times.
He booked a presidential suite and hid in it while Zhang Yilin was busy. He did not leave the room and buried himself in alchemy, artifact forging, and cultivation.
After the Five Elements Alchemy Furnace was refined and modified, its power was completely released. He was already proficient in the art of alchemy, and with the Five Elements Alchemy Furnace, it was as if he had the help of God. He could more flexibly and accurately control the five elements. The probability of extracting, removing impurities, fusing, condensing, forming, and collecting the pills had skyrocketed, almost reaching a hundred percent.
He used the Stalactite Grass and dozens of other precious Spirit Herbs and Spirit Medicines he got from the Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival to make dozens of Meridian Nourishing Pills to repair his damaged dantian and meridians.
Then, he used the Windchime Grass, Life Tree Sap, and many other Spirit Herbs and Spirit Medicines to make Spirit Cultivating Pills and Spirit Nourishing Pills.
Because in the battle with Miyamoto Genichi, his True Essence was constantly condensed and showed signs of breaking through to the sixth level of Qi Refining Stage. Jiang Tian wanted to strike while the iron was hot and directly use the pills to push his cultivation to the sixth level of Qi Refining Stage.
"Who asked me to be called a drug addict in the Cultivation World? I can't stop taking pills! "Jiang Tian mocked himself.
