"Dearest brought some people to Cainan Province to investigate the situation. It'll probably be another two days before she returns."
"She went to see the wolf carcasses?"
"That happened last month."
"Then something happened in Cainan Province? Why didn't you tell me?! "
Chen Guang stood up immediately.
Wu Miaowan was taken aback by his sudden outburst. "Don't be so anxious. It's not like it's confirmed information or something that hasn't been verified yet. We can't possibly let you, the number one expert in the world, make a pointless trip, right?"
Chen Guang sat down again. "That's true. Sigh. What exactly happened in Cainan Province? "
"It's said that a particularly large pig appeared there. It's a bit similar to the wolves you slaughtered last time."
Chen Guang became nervous again. "Do you have any video data?"
"Yes."
"Let me see."
Wu Miaowan pounced in front of Chen Guang's computer. "Here, verify your bureau chief account and see for yourself. There's something going on outside. I'll go out first! "
"Alright, go ahead."
Chen Guang clicked on it and saw that it was indeed a large pig. It was at least twice the size of an ordinary livestock. He frowned.
However, from the photo, the pig did not show any signs of mastering elemental power despite its large size.
However, Chen Guang did not dare to let his guard down. What if the elemental power in this giant pig was still in its infancy, or it had developed intelligence and learned to hide its strength?
As he was thinking about that, Wu Miaowan, who had just gone out, came back with a strange look on her face. "Dearest just sent me a video. Take a look at it, Sir. "
Chen Guang took the phone and stared at it. "Uh …"
"Chen Guang, you're at the station? What a coincidence. I just arrived at Cainan Province. "
Xin Qin was very happy to see Chen Guang all of a sudden. She said cheerfully while holding a large skewer in her hand. Her mouth was full of grease.
When Chen Guang saw this, he felt relieved that everything was fine.
He asked, "Wu Miaowan told me about the giant pig. Let me take a look. Is there any sign of further growth? "
Unexpectedly, Xin Qin's expression changed abruptly when she heard this. She looked as if she found it difficult to speak.
Chen Guang knitted his brows tightly, thinking that something must have happened. Something must have happened, but she just wanted to hide it from him!
"Don't worry, I'll be right there!"
Chen Guang was about to get up when Xin Qin hurriedly said, "Don't! Don't come near me! "
Chen Guang walked briskly toward the door. "Don't let your guard down. I can't fully grasp the strength of the mutated monsters right now. If they're weak, they might be no different from normal livestock, but I won't eliminate the possibility of them surpassing Skin Force martial artists!"
"No … It's not like that! Take a look! "
On the other side of the video call, Xin Qin was anxious. She shouted and switched the phone to the rear camera, aiming at the other side.
"Here's the pig! That's all … "
Xin Qin's crisp voice could be heard. She was talking into the microphone as she quickly approached.
What entered Chen Guang's sight was a huge barbecue rack. Seven or eight people surrounded the barbecue rack, bustling about happily.
The barbecue rack was filled to the brim with roasted pig trotters in soy sauce, fat five flowers, large ribs, crispy pork ribs, these treasures from the pig were piled up densely.
Slightly further away, there were two or three people surrounding a big pot that was emitting smoke. They were probably still stirring the offal of the pig.
Among these people, Chen Guang could name most of them. Almost all of them were martial artists employed by the General Directorate of Guangding.
There was Taoist Cang Song from the Plain Clothes Sect. The old Taoist was stroking his beard while happily fiddling with cumin. However, his mouth was full of sorrow as he muttered, "It's a pity that this talented animal has become your meal."
Dai Quan pointed at another brawny man. "It's all Master Pan's fault. I told him to wait and see, but he rushed up and punched him!"
Boxing Tyrant Pan Da, who had been shot in the chest to protect Wu Miaowan, rubbed his head in embarrassment. "It wasn't easy for me to recover from my injury and my hands were itching. The giant wolf that the chief dealt with was so powerful. I thought that this pig must not be simple either. I didn't expect this animal to be so weak. "
A farmer came up from the side. "Uncle Pan, I've already said that my pig grew up slowly from a young age. No matter how strong it is, it's still just an ordinary pig. Unlike you, Uncle Pan, you were born a human and your fists are as heavy as a bulldozer. My poor Little Black …"
"Fellow townsman, don't be sad. I'll add another five thousand yuan. A pig for twenty-five thousand yuan. Its life as a pig is worth it."
The fellow townsman immediately smiled and did not say anything else.
Chen Guang: "…"
So you guys just turned that pig into a barbecue festival!
Xin Qin switched back to the front camera to face herself. "That … Did you see? When we arrived this morning, Sect Leader Dai and Master Pan were talking about the giant wolves that you dealt with. Master Pan's heart was itching when he heard that. He saw the pig rush up and punch it. We couldn't even stop it and had to pay twenty thousand yuan to settle the fellow townsman down. We thought that since we've already bought the pig, why don't we just barbecue it? We called all the townsmen here and estimated that it would take about a hundred people to finish it. "
Chen Guang sighed. Fine, he had been nervous for nothing!
Since the giant pig had grown to this size and could kill Pan Da in one hit, it obviously had nothing to do with elemental energy.
Pan Da looked up and saw Xin Qin on a video call. "Deputy Chief, who are you talking to?"
Xin Qin pointed the phone at Pan Da. "Chief."
Pan Da blushed and scratched his head. "Ah! Chief, long time no see! I, Old Pan, have embarrassed you this time. Luckily, I was the one who killed the pigs in our Fist Faction when I was learning kung fu. I'm familiar with the process. Chief, should we bring some fat back for you? "
Chen Guang hurriedly waved his hand. "No need!"
He chatted briefly with everyone and only ended the video call after a long time.
It was obvious that the experts in the headquarters were very excited to see him again and were very respectful of him.
Although he had resigned, these martial artists still only recognized him as the Chief.
Chen Guang's prestige in the headquarters came abruptly. It wasn't because of his virtue and prestige, nor was it because of his meticulous planning.
It was rare for him to make a decision himself, but in the end, he still fell into someone else's trap.
At least in the eyes of the people in the headquarters, the Chief's intelligence could not be counted on.
But none of this was important, because he fully deserved his unrivalled strength. This thing was even more valuable than aged wine, and it would never expire.
A true powerhouse did not need to flaunt his martial arts all the time. Everyone knew that he had reached an unreachable height in martial arts.
Even if he were to eat the amount of food for ten people every day and sleep for twenty hours every day, turning himself into a fat man with a big belly for decades, he would still be the unsurpassable strongest martial artist in history.
Many martial artists in the Guangding headquarters were still willing to stay in this special department with a clear conscience. Even if they accidentally killed the livestock of the farmers, they would immediately think of compensation and call their fellow villagers to hold a barbecue.
This was the change that Chen Guang had brought to them. They realized that martial artists were actually human. Chen Guang's "cultivation in the secular world" and "accumulation" were both admirable and enviable.
Unknowingly, these Inner Force martial artists, who were originally high and mighty, would subconsciously imitate Chen Guang's lifestyle.
So far, they seemed to be doing quite well. They were even more ordinary than many of the privileged classes in this country that relied on money and power.
Chen Guang himself did not feel this way. After all, he had only gone to the Realm in the Cup and became the strongest in history.
No matter how profound his life experience in the Realm of True Martial was, no matter how strong his mentality as a powerhouse was, it had mostly dissipated after he successfully broke free from the Sage Emperor's mental state.
"Hey, I'm really going out now."
Wu Miaowan blinked and looked at him. "Why don't you take advantage of the time you have to do dual cultivation with me and teach me some skills?"
Chen Guang quickly sent her away. "Go, go, go. Don't mess around. I'm busy."
After sending Wu Miaowan away, Chen Guang put down the chair again. All kinds of thoughts popped up in his mind.
It was a false alarm again. He had worried for nothing.
Although this was a good thing, at least it proved that everything was fine, he could not relax.
He rubbed his temples. This kind of anxiety that no one could talk about really made him feel physically and mentally exhausted.
If he stretched his head out, he would be stabbed. He could not hide, but he did not know when the disaster would suddenly descend.
This feeling was too unpleasant.
He gripped the cup and thought to himself, This is really a torturous thing. Why don't you just give me a quick death and settle everything in one go?
He took a deep breath and focused his eyes. His mind sank, and he entered the World in the Cup once again.
Many days had passed. Liu Li could not possibly still be clueless, could she?
In the end, the moment Chen Guang entered, Liu Li, who was sitting in front of the "computer" and watching a television series with her legs crossed, suddenly threw a sentence at him. "Don't ask me anything. I really don't know."
"Don't be like this. I'm so anxious that my hair is turning white. Lord Liu Li, please show me the way. "
Liuli stood up, flicked her shoulder-length hair that had grown back, and straightened out her bikini feather dress. "Why don't you give up? When have I ever lied to you? "
"The World in the Cup hasn't appeared for almost two months. Although the power of the Holy Grail outside can't be compared to the power of Mount Balar during the Punishment Realm, it's obvious that this phenomenon is too abnormal! I'm on tenterhooks every day! "
Chen Guang tried his best to put on a very bitter expression.
"I see that you're living quite happily, aren't you? You're filming a movie, making money to do a variety show, and recently, I've even given you a windfall. You still have the cheek to say that you're on tenterhooks every day? "
Hearing those words, Chen Guang was shocked and asked, "Who leaked the news? How could a small matter like me setting up a subsidiary company reach the ears of a god? "
Liu Li turned around and silently pointed at the monitor. She switched to the webpage. It was a bold and black title the size of a palm.
"Shocking! The King of Internet Influencers Rises Quickly, Swallowing the Two Superstars on His Left and Right! "
Then she switched to another image.
"The strongest blockbuster in the history of the entertainment industry. After watching it, 1.3 billion Huaxia people are silent!"
"Tianguang Culture, the prehistoric behemoth that appeared out of nowhere. If you don't change, you're not a Huaxia person!"
Chen Guang, "Uh …"
He had almost forgotten that Liu Li was quite trendy and kept up with the times. This kind of explosive news couldn't escape her eyes.
"Actually, you're not wrong. Your matter has indeed reached the ears of the two God Emperors. In the endless Heavenly Realm, anyone below the God Emperor level will be turned into ashes with just a few glances from Lu Ming and me. Isn't that especially good for you?"
Chen Guang nodded. "It's quite an honor, but I'm still very concerned about what's happening outside."
"Alright, alright, just let Sister Liu Li go. Aren't you torturing the gods?"
Lu Ming, who had been watching the show from the side, finally couldn't help but interrupt. "How about I tell you something else? Do you want to know where your money went?"
Chen Guang didn't know why Lu Ming was talking about such a senseless thing. "Isn't my money in my pocket or in my bank card?"
"No, I'm talking about the 170 million you earned by driving."
"Huh?"
Chen Guang was puzzled. Didn't Liu Li forbid him to ask?
On the other side, Liu Li tried to interrupt Lu Ming, but Lu Ming said, "Sister Liu Li, don't be so secretive. In a few days, even if you don't tell him, he'll find out. Didn't he make a fortune recently? It's just 170 million, it's nothing. "
Chen Guang was at a loss. He vaguely felt that something wasn't right. "What are you guys talking about?"
Lu Ming's fruit shook even more violently. "I'm saying, your money will be completely gone in a few days! But you don't care about this little bit of money, do you? "
"What a scam!"
Chen Guang clutched his chest, rolled his eyes, and collapsed on his back.
He didn't expect that before he could figure out the power of the Holy Grail, he would suddenly receive such a grievous news.
It wasn't the first time that he had thought about 170 million. Even though he felt that the situation was getting worse and worse, he still held on to that one in a million hope.
What if Liu Li was just pretending to be unreliable, and in fact, she really could use her Divine Emperor's mysterious divine sense of foresight to secretly invest in a big project for him?
Maybe she was just joking with him.
Just like 20 years ago, if you spent 100 million to buy Google's stock, you would be worth more than 10 billion now. Maybe Liu Li did that?
For example, in the past six months, the super popular shared bicycles, such as the Mo Bai Bike, were very good at cheating people of money.
He was a person who had to bend down to pick up a fifty-cent note that fell to the ground, but he had taken away 170 million yuan for Liu Li!
This money was not as easy as financing. It was the money he had won after risking his life on the Hong Kong Mid-Mountain Racetrack and defeating countless top experts around the world!
It's gone just like that. Isn't this stabbing my heart?
He lay motionless on the ground. After a long while, he shook his feet and stretched out his fingers to point at the sky. "My money!"
Then he tilted his head and didn't want to move again. He looked as if he had died.
Liu Li and Lu Ming stared at him blankly.
Liu Li said, "Don't embarrass me! Money is just a worldly possession. You can earn it again if it's gone! "
Chen Guang raised his head and glared at Liu Li. "That's easy for you to say! You don't even know what this money means to me! "
Lu Ming was secretly disappointed. Why didn't you melt it?
You're melting like last time. What are you going to absorb?
On the other hand, Chen Guang suddenly stood up straight. His eyes full of fighting spirit, he stared at Liu Li. "Wait, you said there were still a few days left. Tell me what's going on. Can I still be saved?"
