311 I Need More Petrol Before I Can Get Into A Drag Race! (1/2)
”I did not expect this trip to Green Vine City to be so fruitful! What a great surprise!” Elder Cao was smiling in the car. It was pretty obvious that he was in a good mood.
”Yea! I have to admit that kid is really generous for giving out the jade sculptures to you! There are not many people in this world who can do what he just did!” Cao Zhenyang frowned. He was not in a good mood, but he had to agree that Chen was really generous.
Elder Cao shook his head and said, ”You have to take a look at the bigger picture! The fruits of the trip that I mentioned just now is not the jade sculptures that I received!”
”Then, what made this trip a fruitful trip?” Cao Zhenyang asked puzzledly.
”It the people that I meet! Four hundred million can buy those jade sculptures but it can never buy an extremely talented person!”
Elder Cao continued to say, ”Chen Xiaobei is an extremely talented person! He has a good character and some really great talent! Also, I believe that his Sifu has to be one of the legendary figures! Chen Xiaobei can contribute a lot to our country if I can convince him to join Thunder Kirin!”
”Are…Are you serious?” Cao Zhenyang was shocked. He couldn’t believe what he had just heard.
”We shall see. I’m not rushing anyway!” Elder Cao smiled. His eyes were shining with the radiance of enlightenment.
*Dik!*
A crystal-clear sound echoed in the car. Then, Cao Zhenyang took out a unique cellphone. He took a look at it and said, ”Grandad! Emergency! All the big and small factions in Jianghu have started to act out! I feel that something big is about to go down!”
”What did Six Doors Organization say about it?” Elder Cao asked.
”They are still investigating it. For now, they have no idea what’s going on as well…” Cao Zhenyang said.
Elder Cao frowned and said painfully, ”What the hell is going on here? For the past few months, Six Doors Organization has been getting more and more ineffective at investigating Jianghu matters! How can they not know a single thing about this?! They are not worthy of monitoring the Jianghu!”
”Do you want me to assign few of our guys to investigate this matter?” Cao Zhenyang asked.
”Go ahead!”
After that, Elder Cao remained silent for the rest of the journey after saying those last words.

Inside Beichen jewelry shop, Chen was playing with the Duskdawn. It was warm to touch, and its design was really simple and sophisticated. Chen grew fond of it. Also, there were flows of Golden Yang Attribute Spiritual Qi emitting from the ring. Based on Chen’s rough estimation, the Spiritual Qi inside this ring is more than the Flaming Cloud Spiritual Pendant and the incense burner!
But, Chen was now filled with the Spiritual Qi that he had absorbed from the incense burner that he found earlier. He will not be able to absorb more Spiritual Qi until he uses the Spiritual Qi to train himself. Thus, Duskdawn has managed to escape the fate of being drained for now. Chen kept it inside his treasure chest.
”Bro Bei, don’t you feel a heartache for giving out all those precious jade sculptures?” Jing Fei couldn’t help but ask.
”You dumbo! Technically speaking, I won those jade sculptures from Wenfeng. It did not cost me a single cent. Why should I feel any loss by gifting them out?”
Chen smiled and continued to say, ”On the contrary, I should feel happy making friends with Elder Cao through those jade sculptures!”
”Makes sense…Elder Cao is a respectable person! He might be able to help us in the future!” Jing Fei nodded and said.
