Chapter 116: Chapter 110: Departure and Reckless Remarks

“Is it true?”
Chen Sheng who just hung up the phone.
Zhou Tairan frowned.
“It’s true.”
Chen Sheng nodded solemnly.
If the mysterious organization were allowed to attack the exhibition center.
The Martial Arts Conference would inevitably be forcibly terminated, and it was still uncertain whether it could continue afterwards and whether the champion would still count.
By then, Chen Sheng’s Spirit Seed would be gone.
He informed the Wu’an Bureau and Zhou Tairan about the news.
Hoping that both could respond simultaneously to ensure the ongoing Martial Arts Conference.
Upon getting a confirmation from Chen Sheng, Zhou Tairan didn’t inquire about more information, such as where the news came from and who wanted to attack the Martial Arts Association.
He first waved to Zhou Qiming not far away.
“See if you can get in touch with the security staff outside and the monitoring room. ”
‘Yes.”
Without hesitation, Zhou Qiming immediately took out his phone to contact.
Half a minute later,
“Chairman, no one is answering.”
Zhou Tairan’s face then became heavy, and he nodded slightly.
“I got it.”
Under his gaze, Zhou Qiming went back to the sidelines and continued to watch the progress of the competition. After he left,
Zhou Tairan looked at Chen Sheng.
“Don’t worry, don’t make a fuss.”
With that,
He stood up and walked towards the exit, “I will keep in touch with the Wu’an Bureau.”
“We’ll deal with the outside.”
From beginning to end,
Zhou Tairan never asked Chen Sheng about the details of the attack. Perhaps because he understood,
At this time, every second wasted will make the martial artists in the convention center more dangerous.
The burly body walked straight past Chen Sheng without stopping.
The surrounding audience also noticed Zhou Tairan’s departure.
Many people looked surprised.
With referee Zhou Tairan gone,
Who would judge the victory of the competition?
In the passionate atmosphere caused by the ongoing competition, there were suddenly some different voices.
“Everyone, don’t worry, the competition will continue as usual.”
“There is important business in the Martial Arts Association that Chairman Zhou needs to deal with.”
“The second round of the competition will be recorded in its entirety. Even if the chairman is not present, we will use it as a reference when judging the results later.”
Perhaps sensing the anomaly in the audience,
Zhou Qiming picked up the microphone and reassured the crowd.
Hearing this,
The crowd looked around.
Sure enough, they found monitoring probes in the four corners of the exhibition center.
They were then reassured and continued to watch the competition in the battlefield.
Chen Sheng returned to his seat. “Brother Chen, how is it?”
Xu Ying leaned over and whispered.
“I have informed the Wu’an Bureau and Chairman Zhou about the situation, and they are contacting and preparing to deal with it.”
“Don’t worry too much.”
Hearing this,
Xu Ying immediately sighed with relief.
If the people from the mysterious organization were caught, his master wouldn’t be able to escape. Wouldn’t he be free then? For a moment,
His heart was filled with joy.
At the same time, he kept pondering in his mind where he should go if he could successfully break away from the Rabbit Fist.
As for Xu Ying’s inner thoughts,
Chen Sheng didn’t know.
At this point,
He was frowning, occasionally looking in the direction of the outside of the exhibition center.
Supposedly,
With the cooperation of Zhou Tairan and the Wu’an Bureau, dealing with a mysterious organization shouldn’t be a big problem.
Moreover, recently in Fuhai Province, due to previous events in Quanjiang City, the crackdown on this mysterious organization has been huge. Any action this time would certainly be a massive, well-armed operation.
Thinking about it, there shouldn’t be any accidents.
But for some reason,
Chen Sheng always felt an inexplicable sense of unease in his heart.
It made him restless.
“Xu Ying.”
At this moment,
Chen Sheng suddenly turned to look at Xu Ying.
“Huh—Huh?”
“What’s …What’s wrong, Brother Chen?”
Xu Ying was sneaking a peek at Chen Sheng.
Seeing the other person suddenly turning his head, he got a sudden shock.
Even his speech was stuttering.
“Now take Old Zhou away from the Martial Arts Association.”
“Don’t go through the main entrance, climb the wall, dig tunnels, whatever.”
“Just don’t be discovered by anyone.” Chen Sheng’s expression was very serious.
At the same time,
“Hey, hey, kid, what are you doing?”
“Are you sexually harassing an old man?!”
Ignoring Zhou Li’s struggle, he directly reached into his pocket and took out his phone.
He dialed his own number.
After connecting the call, he handed the phone to Xu Ying.
“Stay on the call.”
“Report your location every ten seconds.”
“If anything happens, just yell my name.”
“As long as it’s within the Martial Arts Association, I’ll be there in ten seconds.”
For the second round of the Martial Arts Conference, as long as they were not participating disciples or Martial Arts Hall leaders, anyone was free to come and go.
The leader of the Eagle Body Sect was Chen Sheng.
Zhou Li was just an inferior old man. No one cared about his whereabouts.
As for Xu Ying, it was even less important.
What Chen Sheng worried about from the beginning was not himself.
Even if something unexpected happened, he could still escape.
The only concern was Zhou Li.
The old man was too weak, and a little carelessness could cost him his life.
“Huh?”
“Brother Chen, didn’t you just say—”
Xu Ying looked puzzled.
But when he saw Chen Sheng’s serious expression,
The doubts he was about to ask were choked back.
At a crucial moment,
Xu Ying still had his own determination.
He put away his doubts and promised Chen Sheng seriously.
“Thank you, Brother Chen, for trusting me.” “I will definitely protect Senior Zhou’s safety.” “As long as I’m alive, I won’t let him get hurt.”
“Alright.” Chen Sheng nodded.
Then, he turned to look at the bewildered Zhou Li.
Of the three,
it was this old man who seemed to be enjoying the experience like a tourist from beginning to end.
“Kid, what’s the deal?”
“I’ll tell you later, just get lost now.”
With no time for a lengthy explanation, Chen Sheng waved his hand, and Xu Ying stepped forward to help Zhou Li up.
Regarding Chen Sheng,
Zhou Li had no doubt.
Although he was very sorry that he couldn’t watch Chen Sheng beat up his opponent, since the other party wanted him to leave, there must be a reason.
With this thought,
Zhou Li stopped dawdling and followed Xu Ying towards the exit.
Their departure did not attract much attention.
As their figures disappeared from sight,
Chen Sheng sat in his seat, closely monitoring his phone.
“Breathe…”
As soon as they were out of the door, Xu Ying activated his Breathing Method state.
Ten seconds later, the voice came on time. “Brother Chen, I’ve taken Senior Zhou to the back of the exhibition center.” “There’s a wall here that I can climb straight out.”
“Brother Chen, we’re here, we’ve arrived at the Martial Arts Association— who’s there?!”
Swish!
Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone,
Chen Sheng’s face darkened, and he quickly stood up.
If Xu Ying and the others encountered enemies, he was prepared to leave the exhibition center immediately and go for help.
The people around him were startled by Chen Sheng’s movement, not knowing what he wanted to do.
But at this moment, the astonished voice of Xu Ying on the other end of the phone,
“Chairman Zhou, what are you doing here?”
“And your body, what is…?”
The voice of Zhou Tairan followed closely on the phone. “So it was Chen Sheng who asked you to leave?”
“It seems that you already know what’s going on.”
“I just investigated and found enemies lurking in the Association. This is their blood.”
“Although I don’t know how many enemies there are, I’m worried that someone might sneak in here and cause trouble, so I’m going to set up a Defense Wall at the exhibition center.”
“I didn’t intend to tell the people inside the meeting about the intrusion, for fear of causing distilrhancpq and conflicts ”
“But now that you guys are leaving, hurry up and go.”
Zhou Tairan’s voice was urgent.
“Understood.” Xu Ying replied.
Soon, the other end of the phone fell silent once more. Only the howling wind continued to sound.
Ten seconds later.
Xu Ying’s voice rang again.
“Brother Chen, we’re outside the Martial Arts Association now. I’m going to find a nearby hiding place to take Senior Zhou, and wait until you’re done over there.”
Hearing this, Chen Sheng finally let out a sigh of relief. “Keep the phone connected, don’t hang up until we meet.”
“Understood.”
On the battlefield.
The first round of the battle had already ended.
The winner was Zhao Kongming from the Kongming Boxing Gym.
Although his strength was decent, it still wasn’t worth Chen Sheng’s attention.
Listening to the faint sounds outside the exhibition center, his guess is that this should be the Defense Wall that Zhou Tairan mentioned. Chen Sheng lowered his head to look at his phone, rapidly tapping the screen as if he were chatting with someone.
Soon, the draw for the second round began.
Under the instruction of Zhou Qiming, the victorious martial arts halls came forward to draw lots.
Kongming Boxing Club got a bye.
In the end,
Bai Wuyi from the Snake Fist Sect raised his hand the second Zhou Qiming announced the battle pairings.
“I forfeit!”
What a joke.
Yesterday’s punch had already let Bai Wuyi see his deceased grandmother and a bright bridge.
If he took another punch today, he figured he’d join his grandmother in the afterlife.
so, when Bai Wuyi shouted that he forfeited,
his face was full of determination, and there was no shame in surrendering without a fight.
As for the spectators around, they were not at all surprised. Although there is a saying that a martial artist must be fearless, there is also another saying, more widely circulated: A wise person takes action based on the current situation.
And just like that,
Chen Sheng, who won the match without doing anything, returned to his seat and began practicing the Breathing Technique.
Time slowly passed.
Chen Sheng closed his eyes, practicing the Breathing Technique as he kept an ear out for the situation outside the exhibition center.
The top five competition didn’t last long.
Wu Ran was as strong as ever.
Facing the defensively renowned Turtle Fist School, he still forcefully broke through their defense with powerful claw strikes.
The fight ended in less than ten seconds.
Lastly, only three martial arts halls remained.
And Wu Ran, after winning the battle, didn’t leave but continued standing on the battle platform.
As Zhou Qiming was about to take out the glass cabinet again for the remaining three halls to draw lots, “I think we don’t need to draw.” He directly interrupted.
Then, under the puzzled gazes of Zhou Qiming and the many people underneath the stage,
“You. ”
Wu Ran turned around, first pointed at Zhao Kongming,
“And you.” Then,
he pointed at Chen Sheng.
“You two, you can come up together..”
