One person: Orochi, starting with Feng Baobao's Eight Heroes.

Zhang Zhiwei's words were merely a way of pointing out to Chen Qi, hoping that he would notice something was wrong with himself.

After his reminder, Chen Qi seemed to ponder for a while.

So, learning thunder magic is the conclusion he came to?

According to the old master's speculation, Chen Qi also seems to be looking for a solution.

'Ding'

Before Chen Qi could even begin studying, his phone beeped with a message.

Chen Qi clicked on the message and saw Zhao Fangxu's message: "Ma Xianhong has been taken away. The company's mole has appeared once again."

When he saw the news that Ma Xianhong had been taken away, his first thought was of Qu Tong.

Last time in Biyou Village, Ma Xianhong was taken away by Qu Tong in the same way...

Although we don't know who the mole in the company is, someone with such great power who could openly take Ma Xianhong away twice must not be a low-ranking person.

"I apologize, Celestial Master, but I have something urgent to attend to right now. I'll come back to learn thunder magic from you when I get back!"

Chen Qi respectfully clasped his hands in a fist and left.

Although I did not formally become an apprentice, I will still need to learn the techniques of the Zhengyi School later.

He remained respectful and courteous to the old Celestial Master.

After leaving the Celestial Master's Mansion, Chen Qi did not drive directly to the place he had visited before.

The fact that Qu Tong could say those things shows that she wouldn't let herself find her place easily.

Thinking of this, Chen Qi immediately sent a message to Qu Tong.

"Hand over Ma Xianhong, or you're dead."

After sending the message, Chen Qi leaned back in his chair, intending to use the time to do something else.

Just then, I pulled out Mu You's business card from my pocket.

He called directly, "Mu You, we met today, remember?"

"I need you to investigate two things: Ren Fei's family background and Gao Lian's family's relationship with 3.9 Company. Two things. How much?"

Mu You on the other side was not surprised to hear this, and simply calmly gave a number.

The next second, a notification appeared on the phone: "One million."

Mu You was stunned when he heard the word "one million".

"Didn't I ask for 100,000? The information from both families isn't that valuable. Did Chen Qi add an extra zero?"

Mu You is no ordinary person. He has managed to become one of the Ten Elders of Xiaozhan. His extraordinary abilities are even more impressive than those of other families and sects.

Intelligence is a crucial thing in this world.

"Wait, could it be the money to buy the inn?"

Chapter 224 News from Gao Erzhuang

Mu You suddenly had some doubts.

So he sent a text message back, "Mr. Chen, the intelligence only costs 100,000 yuan, what do you mean by sending 1 million yuan directly?"

Chen Qi replied quickly: "Tip."

Upon seeing these two words, Mu You was certain.

This means they're trying to bribe him.

It's not just about bribing him, it also means bribing Xiaozhan.

Over the years, the owners of Xiaozhan have changed, but the organization has never changed.

Because it is fair, without any bias.

Information will be provided as long as you pay.

Both sides can trust Xiaozhan.

Of course, over the decades, there have been people who have wanted to take over Xiaozhan.

But Mu You refused them all.

If Xiaozhan gets involved with anyone, it will have an impact on Xiaozhan.

　06 So in the end, he chose to stay with the company.

With a company as their backing, no one dares to bother their little shop.

But at this moment, Mu You actually had some doubts.

Not for anything else.

Rather, it was because he knew Chen Qi too well, and even knew about Chen Qi's recent progress.

He has far surpassed the old Celestial Master and is fully qualified to be the new supreme master.

But Chen Qi didn't seem to have that idea.

"How to do it?"

Mu You suddenly had some doubts.

Agree? That doesn't seem good for the organization.

If they don't agree, that would be even worse.

Chen Qi's temper is unpredictable; he even caused a scene at the company this morning.

According to reliable sources, Chen Qi burned down several floors, rendering those floors completely unusable, resulting in losses of at least several hundred thousand yuan.

The person who caused this loss left so easily, and could even take some fine wine to drink with the old master.

Taking all this into account, Mu You fell silent.

After sending the message, Chen Qi, seeing that Qu Tong hadn't replied yet, called her directly.

The call was answered quickly, as if Qu Tong had been waiting for this call.

"What do you want now? You're no longer capable of protecting Xianhong, and this time you let the company's people take him away so easily!"

"This isn't just bad for me, it's bad for you too!"

Listening to Qu Tong's rambling venting...

Chen Qi simply said, "Hand over Ma Xianhong."

At this moment, Qu Tong was furious.

I talked for ages, but they didn't listen to a single word I said!

"I will not hand Xianhong over to you!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Qi immediately started the car, steered with one hand, and drove towards the company.

Qu Tong keenly heard the commotion on the other end and immediately asked, "What are you doing?"

"Drive," Chen Qi replied.

Qu Tong frowned, then asked, "Where are you going at this crucial moment?"

"I'm going to the company to report you."

Qu Tong: "..."

The voice coming from the phone's earpiece was too cold and too heartless.

Qu Tong even felt like the person opposite her was a mannequin.

At this point, she had reached her breaking point. "Chen Qi, don't you think you've gone too far? What did I refuse you for before? Why are you pushing me so hard?"

"I didn't push you too hard."

Chen Qi said dismissively, "The things between you and me were all done willingly by you."

"But I once said that if you don't listen, you'll suffer the consequences."

After saying that, Chen Qi hung up immediately.

Qu Tong was not given a chance to continue speaking.

When dealing with outsiders, Chen Qi has always been ruthless and decisive.

His relationship with Qu Tong has always been one of mutual exploitation.

The reason for the current contact is that both sides need to utilize Ma Xianhong.

Qu Tong needs Ma Xianhong to complete her so-called plan and find out who the eight wonders are.

Chen Qi, on the other hand, was to carry out his own plan.

Before he could drive two kilometers, his phone received a message with the address sent by Qu Tong.

Seeing this, Chen Qi turned around and headed in another direction.

In less than half an hour, we arrived at a beach.

They realized that Qu Tong had imprisoned Ma Xianhong on an island.

Chen Qi stared at the boundless sea opposite him, raised his hand and a white light flashed, forcefully splitting the sea in front of him in two, leaving only a path for people to walk in the middle.

This scene was astonishing, like a celestial phenomenon.

Chen Qi thus made his way to Hai590 Island step by step.

Upon arriving at the island villa, he saw Qu Tong, whose face looked grim, at the entrance. "Why did you get here so quickly?"

Qu Tong glanced down at the time; only forty minutes had passed since they hung up the phone.

Then, her gaze passed over Chen Qi and fell upon that astonishing scene.

In an instant, Qu Tong was completely shocked and stood there in shock.

Every plant and tree in nature contains boundless energy.

Especially the unfathomable ocean, which is why Qu Tong chose to confine Ma Xianhong on the island.

But Chen Qi actually managed to split the entire sea area in two and walk all the way to the island using only his own abilities.

Is this absolute strength?

Qu Tong was suddenly so shocked that she couldn't speak.

My feelings became even more complicated.

"Where is Ma Xianhong? Take me there."

Chen Qi had no time to waste with Qu Tong and was about to take her away.

Qu Tong was unable to calm down at this moment. With a complicated expression, she led Chen Qi forward until they reached the bedroom on the second floor of the villa.

Ma Xianhong was also lying on the large bed.

Chapter 225 Qu Tong's Seduction

"He will need more time to wake up."

Qu Tong said.

Hearing this, Chen Qi looked displeased. "You've messed with his brain again? I warned you last time not to target Ma Xianhong. He simply can't withstand your repeated attacks."

“I do not want the craftsmen who create my wonders to have their lives threatened by you.”

Chen Qi appeared cold and ruthless at this moment, and his words were full of warnings.

No matter what, Qu Tong has been through a lot.

Even so, she still couldn't help but feel intimidated when facing Chen Qi.

She knew that if she said those words, it would be considered a threat.

But Chen Qi is not.

Chen Qi was able to say those words as a prior reminder.
