Chapter 202: Billion Dollar Bounty

“You are too innocent!”

Seeing Olga and Buck’s ignorance, Romon sneered at them.

As one of the biggest organizations in the world, the Hong Sect was powerful in its own right.

Even if Lei Qianjue was dead, there were still six warriors who were at least as powerful as Romon. Compared to the sects and Martial arts families in China, such as the Lu family, Tai Chi Sect, Medicine G.o.d Valley Sect, the Hong Sect was miles ahead. In addition, not only did the Hong Sect possess a tremendous amount of connections in governments all over the world, but they also had a sizeable army. If they delegated all their resources properly, they should be able to rally another ten Grandmasters with ease.

The key to Hong Sect’s influence was their powerful underbosses in each region. They were mighty figures that were feared even by some nations.

“Your understanding of Lei Qianjue’s power was outdated.”

“Although Master Lei was the number one fighter in the sect ten years ago, he was only slightly more powerful than Diamond and Thunder King. However, Master Lei had cultivated diligently on the frozen tundra for ten years and had reached the peak of the martial arts attainment. Let it be his True Energy or physique, he could rely on either one of them to kill a Grandmaster with ease.”

Romon said and then heaved a sigh.

Lei Qianjue was so close to the Immortal State that he was definitely the most powerful martial artist under that level. It wouldn’t take long for him to finish off someone like the Thunder King should they duke it out. However, despite Lei Qianjue’s power and might, Chen Fan had finished him with one hypersonic punch. Romon felt hard-pressed to find out how powerful Chen Fan really was.

“But our efforts in recruiting a.s.sa.s.sins was not entirely useless. However powerful Chen Beixuan was, he would not be able to protect his loved ones and friends all at the same time.” A coldness emanated from Romon’s eyes.

In his minds eye, he had a premonition of what was to come: The a.s.sa.s.sination of Chen Fan’s family and friends drove him to the Hong Sect to seek avenge. By then, Chen Fan would have to face the collective might of the Hong Sect directly. For a mortal, that would be suicide.

The Hong Sect not only had six Grandmasters, but also an army equipped with the most high-tech weapons that could reduce a mortal to ashes in an instant.

“By then, we can finally avenge my teacher!”

Romon lowered his head as vengeance roiled inside of him.

He would never forgive Chen Fan for killing his teacher.

However, he was too weak to carry out the revenge by himself, and therefore he needed the help of everyone in the Hong Sect. He had withheld the details about Chen Fan’s power, such as his ability to pa.s.s the sound battier, fearing that this information would deter his helpers.

After all, people such as Thunder King were not idiots. Without an a.s.surance for victory, they would never take their gloves off, worse, some might even desert on the battle should they caught a whiff of uncertainty in the air.

Meanwhile, Chen Fan was touring the old city with Lu Yanxue.

“Do you still remember what it was like three months ago? You, me and Xiao Qian would sneak out for street food together and hang out all night.” Lu Yanxue was wearing a hat with a large bill that concealed half of her gorgeous face.

Chen Fan didn’t wear any camouflage spell but no one seemed to have taken any notice of him.

“How’s Miao Xiaoqian?” Chen Fan asked distractedly.

“She went back home after the holiday was over. She is going to school at Chu Zhou City University in September.”

Lu Yanxue said quietly and wistfully. So many things had changed in three months. Three months ago, she was no more than an attractive college student, on her way to marry a rich man and live the rest of her life in boredom.

Three months later, after much suffering, she had transformed into a drop-dead gorgeous lady that controlled one of the most powerful Martial arts family in China. Her ability to mobilize tens of billions of yuan at once would make her the most important figure in Tian Nan Province.

Her relations.h.i.+p with other people had also changed. Three months ago, she hesitated a long time before she asked Lord Wu of Jiang Zhou City for help, however, now, even if Lord Wu came to visit her personally, she might not be able to pencil him in.

“Ever since you defeated Lei Qianjue, you are considered the most powerful Grandmaster. What is your next move?”

Lu Yanxue hazarded as she batted her lashed at the young man.

His face looked as pleasing to her eyes as the portrait of a sun-G.o.d under his halo.

However, no one on the street seemed to have taken notice of his charm. Lu Yanwu wagered that Chen Fan had used some sort of spell to mask his appearance. Although she didn’t know such a thing was possible and neither did she knew how powerful Chen Fan was, she could read the young man’s incredible abilities from people’s fearful expressions while standing before him.

“Me?” Chen Fan was taken aback by the question. Then his eyes seemed to lose focus for a while. “I need to go back to Chu Zhou City, and then make a trip to the Jin City. There is someone waiting for me there.”

Lu Yanxue had never seen so many complicated emotions in Chen Fan’s eyes. There was tenderness mixed with expectancy. She knew right away Chen Fan was going to leave her for his true love. The thought tormented her, deeply.

She knew that the girl was the reason that Chen Fan had and would never see her as a lover.

“Then I wish you a good journey. I hope you will make time to come to Jin City and don’t be a stranger please.” Lu Yanxue swallowed down her sadness and plastered on one final smile for the man she so deeply loved. She wanted to leave a perfect image of her in Chen Fan’s mind.

“Sure thing.” Chen Fan answered readily.

He checked the date and reckoned that the school was about to start at Jin City University. He had graduated from that university in his past life, and that was also where he reunited with Fang Qiong and started a new chapter in his life.
