Chapter 416: Chapter 413 Our Li Family People! (Revised Chapter)
"Xue’er, are you feeling better now?"
Li Chen asked with concern after aiding Ye Chuxue in refining the snow lotus for the second time.
Ye Chuxue nodded lightly like a pecking chick: "Mhm, much better!"
Just as their eyes met, an incongruously jarring ringtone from a mobile phone cut through the moment.
At that instant, Li Chen felt an overwhelming urge to smash the phone.
However, when he pulled it out to see who was calling, he was surprised to find it was from Vermilion Bird.
His dealings with Vermilion Bird were few and far between, and they usually involved conveying Li Lingtian’s commands.
Strange, why would she think to call me out of the blue? Could something have happened?
With a head full of questions, Li Chen still pressed the answer button.
"Li Chen, the boss has asked me to tell you to come to Yan Mountain immediately; he has something very important for you!"
"What is it?"
No sooner had Li Chen spoken these words than a beeping tone came from the receiver.
Staring at the phone, he felt the strong urge to curse: Damn it, she hung up on me!
"What happened?" Ye Chuxue blinked her large eyes and asked Li Chen.
Shrugging his shoulders, Li Chen said, "I’m not sure what’s going on. Someone just notified me to head to Yan Mountain right away!"
Ye Chuxue pouted, asking, "You’re leaving again?"
Li Chen gently scraped the tip of Chuxue’s delicate nose: "What, can’t bear to part with me?"
Ye Chuxue rolled her eyes dramatically, coquettishly retorting, "Pfft, how narcissistic!"
Having said that, she no longer paid attention to Li Chen and casually picked up a fashion magazine from the bedside table, flipping through it in boredom.
"Wow, this big cat is so cute!"
Li Chen glanced over and cleared his throat lightly, "Xue’er, just to correct you, that’s called a tiger, not a kitty cat!"
...
After some playful banter with Ye Chuxue, Li Chen prepared to make his way to Yan Mountain.
In truth, a summons from Li Lingtian was something Li Chen had anticipated.
Neither Hongmen nor India would let things rest easy.
With his own limited intelligence network, understanding their next move would still require relying on the military’s resources.
Later that afternoon, Li Chen arrived at Yan Mountain to see Li Lingtian.
"You’re quite something, kid. You’ve really poked a hole in the sky this time!"
Although Li Lingtian’s words carried a reproachful tone, his face was filled with a loving smile, as if providing a heartfelt lesson to a younger family member.
Li Chen shrugged and responded, "I can’t be blamed for this. If anyone’s culpable, it’s them for provoking me!"
His voice wasn’t loud, but his tone was domineering, exuding a decisiveness and ferocity.
Li Lingtian was taken aback at first but then laughed heartily.
"Ha ha, well said! That’s the spirit of the Li family!"
After making this statement, his gaze drifted inadvertently toward Li Chen, gauging the latter’s reaction?
Li Chen’s expression remained unchanged, showing little reaction to the words "our Li family."
From this casual probing, Li Lingtian drew two conclusions:
First: Li Chen was still unaware of his own origins.
Second: He had deep cunning, able to deceive even Li Lingtian’s discerning eye.
Others could hide nothing from Li Lingtian, whose vision was as keen as that of the gods.
But Li Chen was extraordinary and could not be judged by the same standards.
Thus, even Li Lingtian could not arrive at a definitive conclusion.
"Li Chen, the international underground world has been in turmoil lately. There’s no shortage of those wanting to draw you out!"
This issue was something Li Chen had already anticipated. His expression unchanged, he simply asked, "Who are they?"
"Overseas Hongmen and Heavenly Net!"
Li Lingtian’s brow twitched slightly at the mention of "Heavenly Net."
Heavenly Net, vast and inescapable. These eight characters were the truest portrayal of the century-old Heavenly Net.
Anyone caught in their sights, whether a billionaire tycoon or a reigning emperor, couldn’t escape their grasp.
Even a Divine-level Master at the pinnacle of the pyramid would find it difficult to avoid death if they resolved to kill.
It was precisely because of this that the enigmatic leader of Heavenly Net, also known as the spokesperson for Death God or the current Yama, was revered.
The extent of Heavenly Net’s terror was thus evident!
Some say the leader of Heavenly Net is a reincarnation of Satan, others say he is an alien from an advanced technological civilization, and yet others say he’s not human, but an embodiment of divine will...
In short, there were numerous theories, but no one could ascertain the true nature of the Master of the Heavenly Net.
There weren’t many who had seen the Master, and Li Chen’s father, Li Lingyun, was one of them.
However, the information he relayed was perplexing.
The Master of the Heavenly Net is Earth’s last Guardian. Should he perish, the entire planet would cease to exist. He even instructed Grandfather Li Jinliang to immediately cease all actions against Heavenly Net.
With Li Lingyun’s mysterious disappearance, this became a twenty-year puzzle that plagued Li Jinliang, Li Lingtian, and others, causing them immense frustration and leaving them without any clue...
