Time passed until the next morning; it was at around five or six o’clock.
Inside a spacious and luxurious room in the Xu family’s mansion. Bai Chen was sitting on the bed. He lowered his legs off the side of the bed onto the floor. He was in casual wear that Xu Xue Ning had prepared for him.
It seemed like Bai Chen was not in a very good mood, even though he’d killed one of the Wang family members and had gotten out of there safely.
The reason why he was like this was because of the bald old man whom he had met last night, Foo Yen, the sky-soaring realm cultivator.
Last night, Bai Chen had only thought about how to get away from the Wang family’s mansion safely, and thus, he had forgotten something.
Once he’d gotten back and rested, he went over everything that he had seen.
He had finally realised that there was a sky-soaring realm cultivator in the Wang family!
Of course, it was the old man Foo Yen. The proof was the curtain of spirit qi that had deflected the bullet from his gun with the silencer.
Even though the old man Foo Yen had not done anything to him after he’d killed Wang Cheng Yong, it was all because the old man had misunderstood that he was a fellow sky-soaring realm cultivator.
If he had not misunderstood the situation, it would have been impossible for Bai Chen to have survived.
“There’s a sky-soaring realm cultivator in the Wang family…” Bai Chen talked softly to himself.
This actually affected his plan for revenge on the Wang family a lot.
To be honest, he felt like did not possess the means to take revenge. To discover that the Wang family was protected by a sky-soaring realm cultivator only made it even more difficult.
“I have to complete more missions, but the Life Changing System is still upgrading.”
Bai Chen could not help but sigh. The only thing that could help him was the Life Changing System.
If he completed more missions, he would receive special skills and magical items which would help him get his revenge faster.
It was a shame that the Life Changing System was still in the upgrading process. It had only been several days.
There were still more than twenty days left before it was finished—and that was such a long time for Bai Chen right now.
Bai Chen shook his head a little and sighed again. He finally stopped thinking about it. He thought that there was still time before Wang Chengye went to the Xing Seng business district in Xing Zhou city.
“But the Wang family is not the only family I have to deal with. There’s still the Xi family!” Bai Chen realised.
Actually, he had been at the Xi family’s mansion too last night. Compared to the Wang family, the Xi family’s home had even tighter security measures. There were not only security guards but also police and soldiers around the mansion’s premises.
Yes, the Xi family’s home was also a mansion, like the Xu and the Wang family’s homes.
However, the Xi family’s mansion had only three floors. It was incomparable to the Wang and the Xu family’s homes.
However, it was still luxurious and beautiful.
Bai Chen could not get onto the premises because of the strong security system.
No, it was more like he did not want to get in, even though the Xi family was his new target for revenge.
Bai Chen was not a fool. He knew full well that it was hard to uproot a big, influential family.
He did not plan to do anything to the Xi family yet. It would be another story after he dealt with Wang Chengye and the Wang family.
As for the Jing Cha Secret Organisation, Bai Chen had not investigated much about it. He did not even know where it was located. That was as expected of a secret government organisation.
Even though he did not know much about this organisation, Bai Chen still held a grudge against it.
He was determined. He had decided that one day he would make this vile organisation vanish from China!
This was even though strong cultivators were behind it!
“Bai Chen, sir.”
While Bai Chen was going over his thoughts about his grudge against the Wang family, the Xi family, and the Jing Cha Secret Organisation, a melodious voice called him from the direction of the door. This was accompanied by a knock.
The source of the voice was none other than Xu Xue Ning.
Bai Chen shook his head to get rid of all his thoughts before getting up and walking towards the door.
“Are you awake?” Xu Xue Ning asked and knocked again right when Bai Chen reached the door.
Bai Chen opened the door immediately. “I’m up.”
In front of him was Xu Xue Ning, a woman with flawless beauty. She was dressed in simple, yet beautiful clothes that suited her today.
Bai Chen could look at Xu Xue Ning’s face for only a short moment before he had to avert his eyes. He was afraid he would be nervous if he looked at her for too long.
Bai Chen would never get used to seeing Xu Xue Ning’s pretty face, even though he thought he had already gained some immunity against it.
Xu Xue Ning looked at Bai Chen. Seeing Bai Chen in a state where he had just woken up, her heart felt an odd ticklish sensation; it was hard to describe.
She did not know why she also felt happy. She blinked and inhaled a little before saying, “Am I bothering you too early in the morning?”
“No. It’s not that early anyway,” Bai Chen said. He then asked, “Why did you come here? Has something happened?”
Hearing his question, the expression on Xu Xue Ning’s pretty face changed a little, but she was still calm.
“Well… Would it be too much to ask you to come to meet my great-grandfather?” she said. Her heart pounded fast.
It was why she was here in the first place.
It was actually the old man Xu Sien Yi’s wish, not Xu Xue Ning’s.
Since he’d regained consciousness, he kept saying how he wanted to come to apologise to Bai Chen. He could not come to Bai Chen, though, because he still could not move his body. The psychic damage had not been healed completely.
That was why Xu Xue Ning had to come to Bai Chen. She could have brought her great-grandfather here, but she was afraid that his psychic injuries might get worse.
Judging from the way Bai Chen had always been kind and helpful to her, Xu Xue Ning had decided to ask him to go to her great grandfather instead.
