Chapter 90 Company (1)

“You’re not interested? Forget it then.” Chen Yiming turned to leave.

“Wait, I’m interested. I didn’t say I wasn’t,” Shen Jia blurted out as she got out of her daze. She chased after him in her high heels.

Chen Yiming instantly turned around when he heard this.

To him, the speed of his movement was very slow, and was considered a normal speed. However, to Shen Jia, his figure had moved in the blink of an eye and she could not react in time.

Shen Jia subconsciously stopped herself, but her mind was still working slowly, and she was wearing high heels.

She stumbled and fell towards Chen Yiming.

Chen Yiming raised his arm and caught Shen Jia by her hands.

However, Shen Jia couldn’t control her body which bumped straight into Chen Yiming’s chest, then bounced off it.

“It hurts!” Shen Jia couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

Chen Yiming’s chest felt like a steel plate to her. Anyone who bumped into it would feel as though their bones were breaking.

“Are you alright?” Chen Yiming asked.

He wondered if this woman was deliberately trying to take advantage of him. She had rushed over in such a hurry, even though he had not gone far.

“By the way, I haven’t asked what your company will do.” Shen Jia rubbed her aching chest and took a deep breath.

“I haven’t thought it through completely. I was just about to discuss it with some friends,” Chen Yiming said.

“Alright, let me know when you’ve decided,” Shen Jia said softly.

Ever since Lin Yixuan was confirmed as the next head, the daily management of the school headquarters had been handed over to Mu Yuerong

Shen Jia was a receptionist who was both talented and good-looking, and she could read other’s expressions well. Her sales were always among the top three.

During the recent meetings, Mu Yuerong had repeatedly made things difficult for her, revealing signs that she wanted to chase away these good-looking female receptionists.

Therefore, she accepted Chen Yiming’s invitation without any hesitation.

He had successfully poached an employee from his old organization, which could be considered as a good start for his new company.

Chen Yiming was in a good mood and went straight upstairs to the library.

No one was in the library. There were only the books on the shelves.

Chen Yiming patiently searched for information regarding the lightning wood and quickly found the answer he was looking for. A complete piece of lightning wood was a treasure used by those in the warrior realm. The power of lightning stored in it was not something that the purple lightning stone could compare with.

As for the small section he had gotten his hands on, it was neither here nor there.

It was somewhat useless for those in the warrior realm. The lightning power stored in it could not meet the minimum requirement for tempering the body.

For those who were below the warrior realm, it would exceed the limits of what they could withstand. Unless they had a high resistance to lightning, they would definitely die.

“No wonder Liu Liyuan was so willing to give away this lightning wood. Even if I had turned away at the entrance of the villa, he would have given it to the Tongbeiquan School as compensation.

Since the people from the Tongbeiquan School have been using such items to temper their bodies for a long time, they must have their own methods of withstanding it. I’m just snatching food from the tiger’s mouth,” Chen Yiming thought to himself.

He had a feeling that there would be many conflicts with the Tongbeiquan School in the future.

The reason wasn’t just because he had taken the lightning wood that was originally going to be given to them, but also because Chen Yiming was about to interfere in the established power structure in the city.

The size of a place was fixed. Once a new faction led by Chen Yiming rose up, there had to be a corresponding faction that would fall.

The next day, at Hidden Dragon Teahouse.

The teahouse was located halfway up a mountain in the north of the city.

A mountain road was built from the bottom of the mountain to the top, and it was shaped like a sleeping dragon.

There were also a few hotels and bars halfway up the mountain. Because the air was fresh and the environment was comfortable, the expenses here were many times higher compared to at the foot of the mountain.

The price of a small drink was close to 100 yuan.

Chen Yiming, Shi Changyi, and Wei Chaoyuan sat around a tea table. On the table was a box of tea leaves, a tea set, and an electric kettle.

At this moment, the kettle was shaking slightly, and there was a sizzling sound. White steam gradually came out of the mouth of the kettle.

“Brother Chen, why did you call us out?” Shi Changyi picked up the teacup in front of him and finished the tea in one gulp.

“I want to establish a faction that belongs solely to me. That’s why I asked you guys to come over, to see if you’re willing to help me,” Chen Yiming said frankly.

Shi Changyi and Wei Chaoyuan did not reply immediately. Instead, they remained silent for a long time.

This was not a game. If the new faction tried to take a share of the profits, it would definitely invite backlash from the existing factions.

If the faction did not have enough strength to withstand the backlash, it might be reduced to ashes overnight.

“I think you’re being too hasty. It hasn’t even been a year since you started practicing martial arts. After you cultivate for another four or five years, the increase in your strength will gradually slow down. Wouldn’t you have more confidence then?

You must know that the Anteng Transportation Company is under a martial arts school because it was not strong enough. It could only give out a large amount of its profits to seek protection from elsewhere.

Otherwise, it would be targeted endlessly, and the company’s business would not be able to proceed normally,” Wei Chaoyuan said in a low voice.

As soon as Wei Chaoyuan finished speaking, Shi Changyi also tried to persuade him.

“Brother Chen, I don’t think it’s appropriate either. To an individual, the sixth transformation realm is considered an expert.

However, if you are unwilling to be affiliated with a large faction, those people would definitely send people to suppress your company.

Your individual strength is strong. Even if you can defeat two or three people at the same time, if others send five or ten people who are all experts who have undergone at least six transformations, can you deal with them all?

My father’s company is under another organization’s protection. I guarantee that nothing I say is false. Once profits are involved, those people are like tigers that eat people.”

Chen Yiming understood what they meant.

After saying so much, the core problem was that they felt that his strength from the sixth transformation was not enough.

Of course, Chen Yiming understood this problem. That was why he was willing to help the Liu clan attract the attention of the Tongbeiquan School. He wanted to find a suitable reason to display the strength of a warrior candidate who had undergone nine transformations.

There were less than a hundred warrior candidates in the entire East Lake City. Compared to the eighth transformation, it was another qualitative improvement. They were existences that had come into contact with the warrior realm.

When the Liu clan held the auction back then, Liu Liyuan, a warrior candidate, had held back dozens of experts who had undergone seven or eight transformations from making a move with just his presence.

Lin Yixuan had made use of his experience on the battlefield to break through to become a warrior candidate. He was immediately announced by Wan Rong as the successor to become the next head of the martial arts school.

Wang Bowen was instantly eliminated, and none of the other core disciples had objected. The main reason was that Wang Bowen had yet to break through to become a warrior candidate.

“I’m sure all of you have received the news that I have taken the lightning wood from Liu Liyuan that he had wanted to give to the Tongbeiquan School as compensation.

I was already facing the predicament of being kicked out of a martial arts school, so why would I be willing to risk offending the Tongbeiquan School? I’m not stupid.

Previously, when I used the purple lightning stone that Shi Changyi gave me to help temper my body, I realized that my physique was of the type that had an extremely high resistance to lightning.

Therefore, I’m also confident that I can break through to a warrior candidate very soon by using the lightning wood to temper my body,” Chen Yiming promised.
