Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 336 Taking the Initiative to Show Goodwill?

“Heqian is a talented child, and most importantly, he is calm and composed. My master has asked him to come down the mountain with you, so I can finally relax a little.”

"Tsk, it's quite rare for someone like Zhang Zhiwei to give such a high evaluation."

Zhao Zhen looked at the young man in front of him with great interest.

"Heqian, Chairman Zhao and I have been friends for many years. This time, when we come down the mountain, we will follow Chairman Zhao's arrangements in everything. Treat him as you would treat your own teacher, understand?"

"Yes, Master, I understand."

Sun Heqian clasped his hands and respectfully bowed to Zhang Zhiwei.

"Alright, Lao Zhang, shall we go?"

"Well, I'm entrusting this disciple to you now. Remember to bring him back to me safe and sound."

"That's what I said..."

Zhao Zhen rolled her eyes, then put her hand on Sun Heqian's shoulder.

"Little one, are you ready?"

"what to prepare?"

A look of confusion flashed in Sun Heqian's eyes.

Zhao Zhen smiled without saying a word, but silently activated the Golden Escape Flowing Light.

Swish!
With a flash of golden light, Sun Heqian felt a blur before his eyes, followed by a strong sense of weightlessness. When he looked again, the surrounding scenery had changed from lush mountains and forests to bustling city streets.

Where is this...?
"Little guy, when did you become your master?"

“I went up the mountain when I was seven years old, and I have been following my master ever since.”

"Seven years old... Have you come down the mountain all these years?"

"No."

Sun Heqian answered honestly.

Over the years, he has been cultivating under Zhang Zhiwei's guidance, and due to the chaos of the world, he has never left Longhu Mountain.

"That's great. Longhu Mountain is much quieter than Beijing."

BJ?!

Upon hearing the name of this place, Sun Heqian was also deeply shocked.

In the blink of an eye, they had arrived in Beijing from Jiangxi.

Is this the legendary Golden Escape Flowing Light technique that made Chairman Zhao famous throughout the world? Truly unpredictable and mysterious!
Thinking of this, Sun Heqian couldn't help but feel even more awe for Chairman Zhao in front of him.

"Let's go, follow me."

"Ah."

Without delay, Zhao Zhen led Sun Heqian through the crowd and stepped into the gate of the Nadutong branch in a few steps.

When the guards saw that the person who came was Zhao Zhen, they immediately bowed and saluted, and no one dared to stop him.

At this moment, Zhao Zhen's face was calm as still water, but Yu Yang, who knew him well, caught a glimpse of him from a distance and immediately sensed the suppressed thunder beneath that calm.

"Chairman Zhao!"

Yu Yang quickly stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the young Taoist priest beside Zhao Zhen, a hint of doubt flashing through his mind.

"Who is this?"

“Sun Heqian, a highly accomplished disciple of the Celestial Master’s Mansion.”

Zhao Zhen gave a brief introduction.

"Heqian, this is Secretary-General Yu Yang."

Sun Heqian quickly cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Greetings, Secretary Yu."

"Master Sun, you're too kind."

Yu Yang returned the greeting, then looked at Zhao Zhen again.

"Chairman Zhao, you've come back just in time. General Manager Zhao Yufei has been waiting for you in your office for quite some time."

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Zhao Zhen's eyes. "Oh? He's arrived at just the right time. He Qian, why don't you go with Secretary Yu to the lounge for a moment? I have some things to take care of."

"Yes, Director Zhao."

Sun Heqian tactfully agreed.

Although his purpose in coming down the mountain was to find the culprit who murdered his Uncle Tian, ​​his master Zhang Zhiwei had said before he left the mountain that he should follow the arrangements of this Chairman Zhao in everything after leaving the mountain.

Therefore, Sun Heqian did not resist Zhao Zhen's orders in the slightest.

"This kid... he really is quite calm and collected. No wonder Old Zhang praised him for his composure."

Watching Sun Heqian's retreating figure, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but nod.

Look at other people's apprentices, and then look at your own!
Sigh, that silly boy, oh well, I'll discipline him slowly later...

Soon, Zhao Zhen pushed open the door to her office and saw Zhao Yufei standing with his hands behind his back, looking out the window at the street scene below. He only turned around when he heard the door open.

After several years apart, this partner seemed to have aged a bit, but his eyes remained sharp.

"Mr. Zhao, you're back? How is Master Tian doing?"

Zhao Yufei asked directly, his tone filled with concern and a hint of seriousness.

Zhao Zhen did not answer immediately. He walked behind his desk and sat down, staring intently at Zhao Yufei, and gently placed the letter that had triggered everything on the table.

"My life was saved, thanks to Yingzi's two skills."

Zhao Zhen spoke slowly, his voice low and deep.

"But Mr. Zhao, what I really want to know is, where did you get the information in this letter from?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the letter with his finger.

"Someone is planning to make a move against the disciples of the Celestial Master's Mansion. Such secretive information was not even detected by our own intelligence network within the All-Knowing Circle. You are clearly in charge of the outside world, so how could you have known in advance?"

Zhao Zhen's words struck the quiet office like a heavy hammer.

He needed an answer, not only about the truth behind Tian Jinzhong's attack, but also about the credibility of the intelligence source and the potential danger.

A complex expression flashed across Zhao Yufei's face. He remained silent for a moment, seemingly considering his words.

Finally, he sighed softly and sat down in the chair opposite Zhao Zhen.

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you."

Zhao Yufei's voice carried a hint of weariness and caution.

"The source of this information... is very special and also very sensitive. It comes from 'Jianghu Xiaozhan'."

"A small inn in the Jianghu?"

Zhao Zhen raised an eyebrow, a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes, but then his gaze hardened with even deeper scrutiny.

"That intelligence organization in the industry that claims to 'do things for money and know everything'? Why would they target Tian Jinzhong? And why would they sell you this kind of intelligence?"

“It’s not for sale.” Zhao Yufei shook his head.

"Or rather, it wasn't a transaction involving money; they proactively conveyed it in a way that was...almost a warning."

Zhao Zhen leaned forward slightly.

"Proactive warning? When did Jianghu Xiaozhan change its profession to become a chivalrous place? What do they want?"
Or rather, what trend has Liu Wei, the manager behind them, discerned?

"I can't be completely sure about the specific motives," Zhao Yufei admitted.

"Perhaps they saw the future prospects of our Na Du Tong, or perhaps your recent actions of suppressing the Wang family and subduing the Lü family were too great, so these factions in the circle have started to take the initiative to befriend us?"

As you know, many factions in this industry are the type to change sides depending on the wind, especially those that specialize in gathering intelligence.

"Taking the initiative to make friends..."

Zhao Zhen narrowed his eyes, a thoughtful look flashing in them.

Since it was an initiative to show goodwill, why not contact him directly instead of going to Zhao Yufei, who is in charge of the non-circle area?
What exactly is Liu Wei thinking?
Or is he demonstrating his abilities to everyone?

For a moment, Zhao Zhen also fell into deep thought.
