Ding Shanxue left the meeting with Chen Fan with a tangled knot of trouble in his mind. He was given a price, but he doubted his higher-ups would agree to it. Chen Fan was essentially asking for lifetime amnesty

Yu Qin stayed behind and after Xue Jiao and the others were gone, Yu Qin pulled a long face and said: “Grandmaster Chen, I have some information relating to the Vitality Serum that I would like to share with you.”

“Oh? About what?” Chen Fan asked curiously.

“Our source showed that the entrance of foreign spies into China tripled ever since you have invented the number one stock solution three months ago. Many of those agents had arrived in Jin City. We are confident that they came here for the Vitality Serum.” Yu Qin flipped a few pages in a stack of papers and said seriously.

“For example, Mr. Lee Hyun-bin was one of them.”

Yu Qin rushed the folder to Chen Fan. Chen Fan took a glance and saw the picture of a feminine-looking young man. He was Zhong Yaoyao’s new boyfriend, Lee Hyun-bin.

“I have seen him a few days ago.” Chen Fan nodded.

“On the paper, he appeared to be the CEO of Samsung group, a member of the offshoot branch of the Lee Family, and the nephew of the family lord of the Lee Family, Lee Jianhi. In reality, he is the chief of Samsung’s Covert Operation Unit, an A+ cla.s.s Extraordinary One.” Yu Qin explained.

“Samsung’s Covert Operation Unit? What is the A+ cla.s.s?” Chen Fan asked with furrowed brows.

“Samsung’s Covert Operation Unit is a special unit inside of the Samsung group. It recruited men and women with near-supernatural abilities to execute the company’s will under the table. They were used to tidy up loose ends, business espionage and stealing business secrets. Based on our records, there was at least one Korean president who was a.s.sa.s.sinated by Samsung’s Covert Operation Unit.” Yu Qin explained.

The information even took Chen Fan by surprise.

He then recalled that none of the Korean presidents were able to retire in peace, they were either thrown behind bars or were a.s.sa.s.sinated. This was a clear sign of lack of solidarity and leaders.h.i.+p within the country.

Samsung group was a behemoth company. It was worth over a few hundred billion US dollars and made up about one-tenth of the Korean annual GDP. It would not be an easy task to control and manage such a large corporation. The group owned four publicly traded companies that had entered the world’s top five hundred list. In 2008, there were only a handful of private firms in China had made the cut. The Samsung group’s influence was at least ten times more powerful than even the Zheng family.

Therefore, there was a saying in Korea that went like this: Samsung owned Korea, and Lee Family owned Samsung.

“Due to the close ties between Samsung group and the Korean government, Samsung’s Covert Operation Unit had shared some responsibility with the Korean National Intelligence Agency. That being said, the covert units have always been under the direct control of the Lee Family and was under the command of the direct descendants of the Lees.” Yu Qin put in.

“A+ cla.s.s is a cla.s.s based on the international standards for categorizing the Extraordinary Ones. C-cla.s.s is equivalent of initial success in Internal Force, B cla.s.s is of phenomenal success, A cla.s.s peak, and S cla.s.s Extraordinary Ones were equivalent to Grandmasters. A+ cla.s.s was somewhere in between A and S cla.s.s. Their power is about the same as that of semi-transcendent state martial artist. This individual was very close to becoming a top Extraordinary One.”

“So, you mean Lee Hyun-bin is a powerful Extraordinary One?”

Chen Fan asked distractedly.

However powerful Samsung group was, Chen Fan was not concerned by its threat.

Chen Fan could kill even the members of the Hong Sect which boasted six deadly underbosses, much less the Samsung group. As long as he stayed out of the Korean peninsula, Samsung group could not do harm to him. Chen Fan doubted that the Samsung group’s Extraordinary ones were more powerful than the underbosses of Hong Sect; after all, one was a commercial enterprise, the other was an underground professional criminal organization.

“Lee Hyun-bin is not the most powerful one inside Samsung’s Covert Operation Unit, but he was on the top five list. Based on our information, the Lee Family has three S-cla.s.s elite Extraordinary Ones in its service.” Yu Qin said.

“I see.”

Chen Fan replied nonchalantly without any sense of concern.

Yu Qin knew where Chen Fan’s confidence came from. Although Chen Fan was not as wealthy as the Lee Family, when it came down to personal strength, he could hold himself against the combined might of ten Lee Families. Yu Qin continued.

“Our information also showed that Lee Hyun-bin was not alone, there were about ten other of his peers who have made their way into Jin City. Some of them could be the S-cla.s.s elite Extraordinary ones. They might also carry weapons that the Korean government have invented to counter Martial Artists like you. However, if you wish, we could send a warning through our emba.s.sy in Korea to the Korean government and the Lee Family.”

Yu Qin sounded matter-of-fact and no-nonsense.

Despite the hundreds of billions of a.s.sets at its disposal, the Lee Family was only an ant compared with the mammoth weight of China; even the country of South Korea was dwarfed by the Asian giant, much less a private company.

“There is no need, if he dares to mess with me, I will kill him.”
