Alchemist Sword Sect

Chapter 4697 A sudden awakening

Early the next morning, the strange man came to Lu Chen's manor still wearing the same outfit that did not suit the season.

Lu Chen also looked at the strange man in surprise, wondering what the purpose of his visit this time was.

"Mr. Lu, I'm here to pick up the person you say you want to protect." The man lifted his windbreaker and sat on the sofa again, speaking in a condescending manner to Lu Chen, who was still dazed on the side.

"You want to take him away for protection?" Lu Chen didn't expect that the strange man's protection would actually want to take him away.

"I advise you to find a place to hide recently. They have already started to take action. Of course, if you want to run away, it is not good to take the people around you with you. It will be a drag and may even affect their safety." The man. He said it naturally, revealing another important piece of information to Lu Chen while speaking.

"I don't want you to be lying down before you react. After all, I'm betting on your future." The man laughed again, so calmly. It was like he was the dealer, and Lu Chen was just a bargaining chip in his hand.

Although Lu Chen doesn't want to be anyone or a bargaining chip on any gambling table. But in the current situation, Lu Chen has no choice, and he does not have the strength to become the banker in this gambling game, so he can only be a bargaining chip now.

Lu Chen hurriedly pushed Lin Ruoyun out, and then pulled Erni out. Naturally, the elf Qingqing was standing next to Erni.

"My parents aren't here."

"Don't worry, I have sent people to protect your parents secretly. Besides, those old monsters don't bother to pay attention to ordinary people." The man sneered. Although he said this, he still sent people to protect Lu Chen's parents. After all, he has already Agree to Lu Chen's request.

"What's going on?" Lin Ruoyun asked, sitting in a wheelchair, tilting her head to look up at Lu Chen.

"Now you have to follow him to a safe place. Our family is in danger now." Lu Chen didn't explain too much. After all, Lin Ruoyun's IQ could make a rough guess.

"What about you?" Lu Chen didn't mention that he wanted to follow.

"I have my own ideas. You can rest peacefully and recuperate. I will come to pick you up after a while." Lu Chen gently patted Lin Ruoyun's shoulder.

"Well, I understand." Lin Ruoyun is not an unreasonable person. Besides, she also knows the current situation. If she follows Lu Chen, she will only be a burden. It's better to take good care of yourself so that Lu Chen doesn't have any worries.

"What should she do?" Lu Chen put his arm around Qing Qing's shoulders and said uneasily. After all, Erni and Lin Ruoyun have no family ties. But Qingqing is different. She still has a mother and father, so she can't just make her own arrangements.

"You can make your own arrangements for her. Those old monsters don't know her existence yet. Naturally, for your peace of mind, I will also send people to protect her secretly." The man said lightly, and all Lu Chen's worries were properly arranged. of.

"Huh, Qingqing, brother, there's something going on here. I'll ask Sister Qin to take you home." Lu Chen patted Qingqing's little head and said.

"No, Qingqing wants to go with her brother." Qingqing is a child after all, so she still grabbed Lu Chen's sleeves and started acting coquettishly.

"Qingqing, be good. My brother is in a hurry and it's not convenient to take you with me." Lu Chen comforted Qingqing again and said, "Besides, your summer vacation is almost over, but you have to go to school well. If your grades are not good, my brother will not want you." Lu Chen pretended to be angry and reminded Qingqing.

"Qingqing is very good, brother, don't be angry." Seeing Lu Chen's face, Qingqing shrank her little head in fear and said timidly.

Lin Ruoyun and Er Ni were sent away, and Lu Chen took Qingqing to the police station and handed her into the hands of Qin Shuman. He could only ask Qin Shuman for help and let her send Qingqing home.

After doing all this, Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief. After returning to his home and locking the door of the manor tightly, he began to make next plans.

Fighting alone, Lu Chen obviously does not have the ability to find those who are hiding behind the scenes. After all, a person's power is quite limited. At this time, Lu Chen thought of the two Taoist priests Xuan Guang Qingping. It is estimated that the current situation of the two of them is also a bit dangerous, so it is better to combine the strength of the two people to resist. Also afraid that they would be in danger, Lu Chen quickly dialed Qingping's number.

"Taoist Priest, where are you?"

"Hey, Xiao Lu is finally free? Have you thought of calling me, an old man?" Qing Ping's laughter came from the other end, and it was obvious that there was no danger now.

"I'm with old man Xuan Guang now. In the past few days, this old man has been dragging me to foreign countries to attend some seminars. He returned to China today. What's the matter?"

"Where is your destination? I'll rush over. I'll explain it to you then." Lu Chen quickly asked.

According to the location given by Qing Ping, Lu Chen rushed to the city where the two of them were by flight without stopping. After all, he couldn't waste any time now. I don’t care whether it’s wasted or not.

In the luxurious office building, Chase Lu could hardly imagine that Xuan Guang had such a big industry, but when he thought that he generously gave him five million in start-up capital, it was obvious that these were just small touches.

Lu Chen was not in the mood to look around. The office was next to the floor-to-ceiling window. Lu Chen looked at the two old men with their mouths open and unable to speak. However, he was not in any mood to make fun of them. He could only frown.

"You mean, Master Lei is still alive?" Xuan Guang finally woke up from Lu Chen's words, but the news came too suddenly for him to accept.

"It's very possible." After Lu Chen said this, he threw the newspaper in front of the two of them.

"Huh?" Xuan Guang and Qing Ping looked at the headlines on the front page and looked at Lu Chen in surprise. The person in the picture was clearly Lu Chen sitting in front of them.

"Ahem, second edition, read the second edition." Lu Chen coughed awkwardly and said quickly.

The two of them didn't say much, and quickly turned to the second page of the page. A small picture immediately attracted the attention of both people.

"Isn't this Master Lu? What's on this back is..." Qing Ping obviously recognized the person in the photo. Looking at the red palm prints on his back, he immediately stood up from his position, took a step back and pointed. The newspaper widened its eyes.

"Power Transformation Palm!" Xuanguang and Qingping looked at each other and said one word in unison.

"Yes, it's the Transformation Palm!" Lu Chen said calmly.

"Is Master Lei really still alive?"

"Master He has already seen it!" Lu Chen once again produced a piece of evidence and said.

"What about Master He?" At this time, Taoist priest Qingping asked. After all, they had been abroad for some time, and they didn't know what was going on here.

"He was shot to death." Lu Chen got angry and said slowly.

"What? How could he be shot to death?" At this time, Xuan Guang also stood up excitedly and looked at Lu Chen with some confusion. Unexpectedly, he received news of the death of the two leaders in a short period of time.

"This is what happened..." Now that the two people had asked, Lu Chen had no need to hide anything and told them everything that had happened in the past few months.

"You mean, of the nine heads, five are dead, two are seriously injured, and two are still in limbo?" Xuanguang and Qingping both listened to this slightly horrifying data in surprise.

"That's right, I took action to solve two of them, and I also caused two of the serious injuries." Lu Chen simply confessed what he had done.

"You...you!" Upon hearing this, Taoist Master Xuanguang took a few steps back, and after putting a certain distance away from Lu Chen, he looked at Lu Chen with horrified eyes, looking at him in disbelief.

"I was also forced. If I hadn't taken action at that time, maybe I wouldn't be sitting here." Lu Chen knew that if he hadn't taken action at that time, he would have been playing chess with the Lord of Hell by now.

"Old man Xuanguang, why are you so excited? You and I both know Xiaochen's personality. This kid will definitely not take action unless forced to do so. Now that things are in this situation, don't be so surprised. That's it." On the other hand, Taoist priest Qingping was very calm. After all, things have already happened and there is no use in talking about it anymore.

"I came here just to ask you to be careful. It may be uneasy recently. Of course, I am here to take refuge. This way, it is much better for everyone to be together than to spread out and let everyone defeat each other." Lu Chen did not worry about killing people himself. Regarding the matter, after all, now is not the time to repent, and besides, those people deserve their sins.

"You mean Master Lei is going to take action against us?" At this time, Qingping looked at Lu Chen in confusion and asked.

"We can't rule out this possibility." Lu Chen has thought through all the considerations now. He can't rule out this possibility. After all, Lei Ming has already killed Head Lu, and he will probably take action against these two old men.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Back then, he opened up the energy channels between the two of us. It's definitely not Master Lei who is going to harm us now." Xuan Guang waved his hands, shaking his head like a rattle. After all, Lei Ming was their mentor, and the two of them had great respect for Lei Ming. If Lei Ming wanted to deal with two people and beat them to death, he wouldn't believe it.

"Okay, whether it's him or not, we should be on guard. Although we don't know what their purpose is. But we can't take it lightly." Lu Chen first calmed down the excitement of the two people. Now it's not 100%. It must be Lei Ming who wants to attack the two people and himself. However, it is still necessary to take precautions before it happens.

"I want to go back to my Taoist temple." At this time, Qing Ping said stubbornly to Lu Chen, his tone was not a request, but an affirmation.

"You old man, why are you going back to your Taoist Temple at this time?" Taoist Master Xuanguang pulled Qingping to wonder what his plan was. However, based on what Lu Chen said, it seemed that this was a critical moment, and it would be better for everyone to work together as one, as Lu Chen said. There is strength in numbers.

"I don't care who wants to deal with me. The Taoist temple is my home. Even if I die, I will return to my roots." Qingping couldn't hear Xuan Guang's advice at all. He made up his mind and insisted on returning to his Taoist temple.

"You are really stubborn, Xiao Chen. I think we should go to his Po Dao Monastery for a few days first and see what happens." Looking at Qing Ping's stubborn temper, Xuan Guang didn't The only way is to get everyone together like this first.

"That's okay. After all, no matter where we are, only by living together can we deal with what happens next." Lu Chen did not refute Xuan Guang's suggestion.

After Xuanguang explained the company's affairs, he asked his driver to drive a business car and drive the three people to the Taoist temple in Qingping.

Returning to the Taoist temple, it was still the same as before, nothing major happened. He is also isolated from the world, indifferent to what is going on outside.

When Lu Chen came to the Taoist temple again, he had no intention of enjoying the scenery. After all, my nerves are very tight now, so I don't have the temper to look at the beautiful environment around me.

Qingping returned to his original life in the Taoist temple, doing morning classes and arranging some disciples to do busy work. I also sit in my room all day long and read Taoist works. The days passed calmly and uneventfully, which was what Chase Lu wanted to see the most. Although it is dull, it is still much better than dangerous.

On the other hand, Xuan Guang was very uncomfortable. These days had passed, and the danger Lu Chen mentioned had not happened. I can't stand this kind of comfortable and ordinary life in the Taoist temple. Otherwise, he would not have abandoned his career as a Taoist priest and gone into business.

"Xiaochen, are you too careful? In fact, this is all your delusion. Nothing happened at all." Taoist priest Xuanguang looked at Lu Chen with a complaining look. It can only be said that this kid is too cautious. In fact, nothing will happen at all.

Lu Chen scratched his head and didn't say anything more. After all, it seems that nothing really will happen. Isn't he worrying too much?

"Forget it, I'll go back to the company if I have nothing to do." Xuan Guang couldn't stand the boring atmosphere in the Taoist temple, so he simply took out his mobile phone and dialed the driver's number and asked him to pick him up.

"I'll go with you." Lu Chen was not used to the atmosphere here. After all, he had not seen through the world of mortals. He still had to travel around before thinking about it.

After cleaning up everything, Lu Chen and Xuan Guang returned to Xuan Guang's company in the business car. Lu Chen couldn't stay here all day doing nothing and eating and drinking. Although Xuan Guang wouldn't mind this at all, Lu Chen still felt a little embarrassed about it.

"How about this, Taoist Master Xuanguang, please arrange a job for me. How about I work with you for the time being?" Lu Chen sat in Taoist Master Xuanguang's office and watched the old man watching a TV series in the office. .

"Ah? Oh, what kind of job do you want to do? How about being my secretary?" Xuan Guang remembered that when he met Lu Chen before, he asked Lu Chen to come to his company to help. Now that Lu Chen actually took the initiative to work in his company, he was naturally very happy. He simply threw the mouse aside and sat next to Lu Chen.

"Be a secretary?" Lu Chen had never been exposed to the secretarial industry, so having him be a secretary and following Xuan Guang every day felt more like a security guard.

"Why are you dissatisfied? Do you think it's not interesting to follow an old man like me?" Taoist priest Xuanguang laughed. How could a young man be interested in working with an old man like him? Obviously Xuan Guang is not a rigid person. Lu Chen's face has already confirmed that this guy really doesn't like the secretary job.

"No, no, the secretary will be the secretary." Lu Chen felt that he was the boss, and Xuan Guang became his employee. Where there are employees who choose their own positions, they quickly waved their hands and prepared to accept the secretary job given to them by Xuan Guang.

"Young man, I still don't understand your little thoughts. I'll arrange for you to go to the Public Relations Department." Taoist priest Xuanguang raised his eyebrows. Naturally, he knew that maybe this guy would be suitable among women, so he said with some ambiguity. Lu Chen went to work in the public relations department.

"Forget it, let's just return it to the department. What's wrong with that?" Lu Chen was not in the mood to see any beautiful women. Besides, he was considered half a family man. It would definitely be bad to hang out in the public relations department. . Besides, if Lin Ruoyun knew about it, it would be difficult for him to tell the difference.

"Okay, I'll arrange for you to go to the planning department. There's leisure there. If there's anything for you to do, you can just go to work comfortably." I really couldn't stand Lu Chen's many demands, and Taoist Master Xuanguang didn't either. In order to be patient, I simply thought of a department and let Lu Chen go to work.
