Startled by the two coughs, Su Daqiang shuddered and sprang up from the woman. Turning around, he saw Lin Chen at the door and the giant panda at his feet.

The woman screamed, frantically grabbed the blanket next to her, wrapped herself up, and huddled in the corner of the bed, trembling.

Su Daqiang's eyes slowly turned from astonishment to sinister intent.

"Kid," he squinted, sizing Lin Chen up and down, "who the hell are you? Don't you want to live?"

Lin Chen frowned and looked away from his naked body.

"Get dressed before you speak."

Su Daqiang paused for a moment, looked down at himself, and muttered curses as he grabbed the clothes and pants next to him and haphazardly put them on.

"Are you Su Daqiang?"

"Not bad." Su Daqiang tightened his belt, raised his head, and said, "Kid, you know who I am and still dare to disturb my good time. You've got some nerve."

The middle-aged man who was tied to the chair stopped struggling and just stared at Lin Chen with a complicated expression.

Lin Chen shrugged and said casually, "Someone offered a million crystal cores for your life, so I came."

Su Daqiang was stunned.

One million crystal cores to buy his life?

Low-level crystal cores? What's the use of those now? High-level crystal cores? Who can afford that many?

My mind raced for a few seconds, but I still couldn't figure it out.

"Who wants to kill me?"

Lin Chen shrugged: "No comment. You're going to die anyway, so it won't do you any good to know."

Su Daqiang's expression changed, and he suddenly shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Help! Help!"

The shouts echoed in the room, but there was no response.

Lin Chen looked at him as if he were a trapped beast struggling for its last breath.

"Stop howling," he said calmly. "You can shout yourself hoarse, it won't do you any good. Your men are either dead or have already fled."

"Go in peace."

Su Daqiang shuddered.

If there's no escape, then we have no choice but to fight.

A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he instantly pushed his S-rank fourth-level wind-type ability to its limit. He transformed into a blur, accompanied by a howling wind, and rushed straight towards Lin Chen's face!

fast.

It was really fast.

pity--

Within Lin Chen's temporal field, even the fastest speed is slow motion.

Just as Su Daqiang lunged at Lin Chen within a meter, a hand firmly grabbed his neck.

His pupils dilated suddenly, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Let...let me go..." His voice was forced out of his throat, hoarse and broken, "I'll give you double the amount of crystal cores..."

Lin Chen looked at him and said calmly.

"I am a person of my word."

He shook his head.

"You should just die."

"Click."

Su Daqiang's neck was broken.

His eyes were wide open, his mouth agape, the words he hadn't finished catching in his throat. His body went limp and slid down, crashing to the ground, where he remained motionless.

The room fell silent.

Only the woman in the corner of the bed huddled under the covers, trembling.

The middle-aged man, bound to the chair, stared wide-eyed at everything, his body stiff, unsure whether to be shocked or delighted.

Lin Chen picked up Su Daqiang's body, his gaze sweeping over the trembling blanket on the bed and the dumbfounded man on the chair. Without lingering, he turned and left the room.

The door behind him slowly closed.

After walking a few steps, suppressed sobs came from the room, along with a man's soft words of comfort.

Lin Chen didn't stop walking; he turned around and crept towards the supply warehouse in Shekou.

They grabbed a few ordinary survivors who hadn't managed to escape along the way, and after a few questions, they learned the approximate location of the warehouse.

When they arrived, the warehouse door was wide open, and there were many people going in and out, moving supplies. It seemed they were trying to make a quick buck in the chaos.

The moment they saw Lin Chen and Yuanzai, they all stopped moving.

Then, the things in my hands started falling to the ground with a clatter.

The group of people, as if they had been paralyzed, retreated to the corner of the wall, trembling and not daring to breathe.

Lin Chen ignored them and glanced at the warehouse.

Take away the crystal nucleus.

Take away any valuable supplies.

I'm too lazy to touch the rest of the bottles and jars.

In just two minutes, the warehouse, which had been packed full, was mostly empty.

Lin Chen turned and left without even giving them a second glance.

Only after the man and the bear disappeared did the survivors dare to breathe heavily and collapse to the ground.

Meanwhile, Qin Lu and Xiao Yan, far away in Bao'an, were still happily calculating how much they could gain from the two families' territories after Lin Chen killed Bai Junming and Su Daqiang.

After finishing, the man and the bear headed towards Foxconn.

For Lin Chen, 40 or 50 kilometers was just a matter of lifting his feet; he could get there in a few minutes.

When they arrived at the entrance of the Foxconn base, the sky hadn't changed much.

Surprisingly, the process here went almost too smoothly.

The henchman at the door saw Lin Chen and Yuanzai and his eyes lit up. Without saying a word, he came up to them with a big smile on his face.

"Brother, you're here to see our Boss Bai, right? Come on, come with me!"

As he led the way, he launched into a long and enthusiastic explanation, his tone brimming with the warmth of a seasoned friend.

"Our Boss Bai values ​​talent the most. Anyone who's strong will be treated like royalty here! You're clearly no ordinary person, that giant panda—wow, amazing!"

He got more and more excited as he spoke, and as if afraid Lin Chen wouldn't believe him, he added:

"From now on, Shenzhen will definitely be Boss Bai's territory! You won't regret coming!"

Lin Chen remained silent the whole way, simply following quietly.

I thought to myself: Your eldest son will definitely thank you and your whole family for caring about him so much.

Lin Chen paused for a moment as he entered the constant-temperature workshop where Bai Junming worked.

It's so lively!

The long table was laden with wine and meat, and several braziers of charcoal fire warmed the entire space.

A group of men and women were slumped over, some were embracing women and chugging drinks, while others were leaning on the sofa, puffing away on cigarettes.

Even the Hainan Rendez-Vous is nothing special.

Lin Chen felt a pang of unease as he watched this scene.

These people know how to enjoy life to the fullest, and look at him—so much stronger and richer than them, yet he's always out there killing this one and that one, running from one end of the city to the other.

My heart is filled with tears.

This Creation Pearl is so damn edible!

The henchman leading the way was clearly used to this scene, and he shouted at the top of his lungs from afar:

"Boss! Another powerful individual has come to join us!"

Bai Junming was lounging on the sofa with a scantily clad woman in his arms when he heard this, and his eyes lit up immediately.

He pushed the woman away, sat up straight, and looked at Lin Chen from afar, as well as the round panda at his feet.

"Excellent, excellent!" He beamed, arms outstretched, looking eager to recruit talent. "Brother, you have good taste! Don't worry, joining us will definitely not disappoint you!"

Lin Chen looked at him and sighed helplessly.

"I'm not here to join you."

He paused.

"Someone is offering a million crystal cores to save your life."

Bai Junming's smile froze on his face.

The young man who was leading the way also froze.

The decadent music in the workshop suddenly fell silent.
