Chapter 158: Aftermath (II)
“Pack up and hide in East Lake City with me,” Chen Yiming said.
The only person in the Mo clan who knew his true identity was Mo Yanfei. As long as he hid Mo Yanfei and did not let the Mo clan have any contact with her, even if the Kunshan Sect captured all the members of the Mo clan and interrogated them one by one, it was impossible for them to find out the true identity of the masked man.
He just needed to endure it for another two to three months. If the Kunshan Sect refused to give up, Chen Yiming could upgrade his talent and attack the sect.
Nothing was more effective than beating them up. As long as he made the Kunshan Sect feel afraid, they would naturally be able to let go of all the hatred they had formed.
Mo Yanfei nodded and immediately turned around to return to the bedroom. She packed several pieces of clothing into a handbag.
She was taking refuge, not going on a vacation, so she packed simply.
After spending less than a minute to pack up, she came out of the bedroom.
Before they left, Mo Yanfei asked in a low voice, “What are the arrangements for the Mo clan?”
Chen Yiming thought for a moment and said in a low voice, “The inner court heads of the Kunshan Sect refused to let me go. I killed four of them with one strike. The sect master will definitely not let this go easily.
The Mo clan is the only link to the masked man. Inform them to find a place to hide for a time.”
“Huff!”
When Mo Yanfei heard this, she took a deep breath.
This news was too shocking for her. The severity of the matter far exceeded her guess. Not only had Chen Yiming snatched the porcelain bowl from them, but he had also killed four Kunshan Sect court heads.
It had to be known that the city guardian, Ren Pingsheng, was the last line of defense in East Lake City. He was only at the same level as the inner court heads of the Kunshan Sect.
When the alien bird creatures attacked the city, the city guardians of East Lake City, Nightwater City, and Cloud Port City held off the largest alien bird creatures leading the flocks in the wilderness.
Although the three cities had still suffered serious losses in the end, at least the cities were still standing. They could recover after rebuilding for a few years.
Chen Yiming’s sword had destroyed a martial arts power stronger than the three cities with just one blow.
Mo Yanfei composed herself and digested this shocking news. Then, she took out a piece of paper.
She wrote on the note, “In danger of extermination.”
She whistled, and a messenger bird landed on her shoulder from the roof.
She tied the note to the bird’s leg with a thin string and threw it lightly. The bird flapped its wings and flew away, disappearing into the night sky.
Chen Yiming watched quietly from the side, having no intention of helping the Mo clan.
He was not a saint. If the Mo clan wanted to use their close relationship with the masked man to improve their clan, how could they not accept the corresponding risks?
If the Mo clan could hold on for two to three months and pull through this crisis, the Kunshan Sect might have already been defeated by Chen Yiming. The Mo clan would naturally be able to make use of this situation to become famous.
At that time, even the city guardian of Cloud Port City would have to give the Mo clan face. The Mo clan would instantly become a martial arts clan with an extraordinary status in Cloud Port City.
After Mo Yanfei used the messenger bird to send the news to the Mo clan, Chen Yiming carried the beautiful woman in his arms.
He had only obtained the concept diagram of the Mantis Snake Sword Technique, and had yet to master the transformation of the black fog internal force. He could not cover both of them at the same time if they walked side by side.
Mo Yanfei’s body trembled. This was a novel experience, and the pressure from the matter with the Kunshan Sect immediately dissipated.
Chen Yiming felt her warmth in his arms and suppressed the heat rising in him. The black fog internal force allowed the two of them to blend into the darkness.
“Swish!”
A breeze blew past.
Chen Yiming carried the beautiful woman and rushed towards East Lake City.
After returning to East Lake City, Chen Yiming brought her to an apartment rented by his company.
The apartment was in the city center, so Mo Yanfei didn’t need to go out. Chen Yiming would arrange for special personnel to deliver food to the apartment regularly.
Chen Yiming was busy for almost the entire night. Before the auction started, he spent a lot of effort to find out more about the Myriad Phenomena Sect from Wan Ya. He went to deal with Lei Bojun, who was blocking his way, and then went to the Kunshan Sect to retrieve the porcelain bowl.
During this time, there had been several battles. He had fought a battle of wits and courage with the enemy, and was slightly mentally exhausted.
Mo Yanfei, on the other hand, had been on tenterhooks the entire night after hearing about the events at the auction.
At this moment, everything had finally settled down. The two of them needed to release the emotions they had accumulated in their hearts. Soon, it became like firewood encountering a raging fire and could not be stopped.
Chen Yiming only returned home quietly at four in the morning.
…
The sun rose in the east, chasing away all darkness.
Chen Yiming slept until he woke up naturally. When he woke up, it was already 10 am.
After washing up, he left for the company.
Along the way, the road was filled with pedestrians. The lives of ordinary people had not changed at all, and the disturbance in the martial arts world had not affected those at the lower levels.
When he arrived at the office, he found Shi Changyi and Wei Chaoyuan already waiting for him.
From their faces, it was clear that the company had probably received the news.
Chen Yiming sat down in the boss’s chair and said, “Tell me, what happened at the company?”
Shi Changyi’s expression was solemn as he reported, “As soon as the company opened today, someone came in and asked to put up a wanted poster.”
Hearing this, Chen Yiming thought to himself.
The power of the Kunshan Sect could not be underestimated. They could actually interfere with the internal affairs of East Lake City.
It was also possible that since the porcelain bowl had come from East Lake City, and four court heads had just died in one night, the matter had shaken the whole province.
In order to appease the Kunshan Sect, Ren Pingsheng took the initiative to cooperate with the arrest warrant for the masked man.
Wei Chaoyuan added with a worried expression, “Boss, a large company in the building next door previously sent news that after they refused to post the wanted poster, a disciple of the Kunshan Sect came to teach them a lesson.”
Chen Yiming asked in surprise, “The disciples of the Kunshan Sect are so forceful. Aren’t the higher-ups in East Lake City going to interfere?”
Wei Chaoyuan said with a bitter smile, “I immediately sent someone to find out more. It’s said that as long as no one dies, they won’t agree or object to it.”
Hearing this, Chen Yiming understood Ren Pingsheng’s attitude. He asked, “Have the martial arts schools with warriors presiding over them also put up the wanted poster?”
Wei Chaoyuan continued, “Other than the few martial arts schools with a strong backing, the other martial arts schools in East Lake City have obediently followed the instructions.”
Chen Yiming nodded and made the arrangements. “Then we’ll follow the crowd and do as they say.”
At this moment, there was no need to act rashly and go against the Kunshan Sect, which would increase the risk of his identity being exposed.
After Shi Changyi and Wei Chaoyuan received Chen Yiming’s orders, they quickly went to deal with the matter.
Before Chen Yiming arrived, the two of them had stalled for a few hours with the excuse that their boss was not around.
Before long, a wanted poster was put up at the entrance of the company.
On the wanted poster was a masked young face. The most obvious feature was the murderous gaze.
Many employees of the company went over to look at it curiously.
“Why is there a wanted poster here?”
Some employees who had been busy with work since they arrived at the company and had yet to receive the news asked the people beside them.
“You actually don’t know?” Someone at the side laughed.
Soon, someone explained, “I heard that it happened last night. The masked man on the wanted poster snatched the last item from the auction.
He fought his way out of East Lake City. In the end, it’s said that more than 10 warriors died.”
“What!”
The surrounding people gasped. Even the employees who had already heard the news were no exception.
In their understanding, the warrior realm was a single level and did not know that it was divided into different levels.
To them, he was an unreachable big figure. The boss of their own company was such an existence.
They had heard that after their boss broke through to the warrior realm, he established a large corporation in a week. It had expanded from about a dozen people to more than 10,000 employees.
