Chapter 267: So It Was Him!

"No, I'm sure I've seen him somewhere!"

Cong Yu became even more certain.

The deals that can bring him to trade are all orders worth over a million yuan.

That's not easy.

Thinking of that, he immediately flipped through the historical transfer records.

The next moment, his eyes widened sharply, and he couldn't help exclaiming, "It's him!"

"What's wrong, supervisor?"

"What happened?"

Two bodyguards behind him hurriedly asked.

"No, nothing."

Cong Yu came to his senses and gave a wry smile.

Indeed, he now knew who that person was.

It was the man from that young couple he met a few times ago.

One's appearance can be altered by various means, but a bank account is so crucial that no one would be foolish enough to transfer money into another's account.

"No wonder we didn't see them yesterday; the two have already split up? But that older brother's strength is somewhat unexpected."

Cong Yu was secretly shocked.

After realizing that the woman was a Spiritual Thought Master, most of his attention shifted to her.

He didn't pay much attention to his fellow Jiang Cheng, only subconsciously thought that Jiang Cheng was the woman's follower.

In fact, anyone would think so, since Ye Ying hadn't spoken a word from start to finish, and along the way Jiang Cheng repeatedly sought her opinion with his eyes.

But just now, the man he hadn't valued much came alone, bringing all this, including over a dozen guns; one can imagine what kind of battle he endured! "Perhaps it was only because the Spiritual Thought Master was injured that he came alone, and after returning he'll split the earnings half and take his share."

Cong Yu took a deep breath and thought.

If it weren't like this.

Then that older brother's strength would probably not be much weaker than the Spiritual Thought Master's, and even, by taking the Spiritual Thought Master with him, he would have reduced his own earnings.

……

Leaving the warehouse, Jiang Cheng headed straight for the village exit.

Logically, with enough money, he should now go to the trading house and purchase the few missing bottles of Secret Medicine.

He could also continue to order Second Grade An Shen Pill at an 80% price.

However, for safety, he still doesn't intend to do that.

Because a Human Skin Mask can deceive a Force Warrior, it may not fool a Spiritual Thought Master, let alone a Grandmaster.

When paying, as soon as the latter sweeps his thoughts, all his disguises go down the drain, which means he draws the other's attention and the risk becomes greater.

So it's better to honestly purchase at the Auction.

Including pills that accelerate Spiritual Power recovery.

He thought it over and felt buying inside the event was also improper.

After all, his strength is only that of a Second-level Force Warrior; even near White Pine Village, Level Four or Five Force Warriors can be easily taken down, yet he, a Second-level Force Warrior, emerged unscathed and earned over a million.

If he were Bing Li, there would still be doubts.

Either they would see that he is hiding his strength.

Or they would think he's laundering money, using a pretext of hunting in the wild to move some illicit cash to the surface.

Better to buy from the Black Market.

Even breaking the sky only costs a little over two million, and the Calming Pill and Secret Medicine aren't even in the same session; spreading them out greatly reduces the chance of being targeted.

Of course, this means waiting many days.

Only, compared with the risk, waiting a bit longer is nothing.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Cheng arrived at the exit.

After queuing out, he floored the accelerator and sped away. Only then did the people behind him react.

Dare they be bluffing?

But at this moment, even if they tried to chase, they couldn't catch up.

"Never mind, next time this guy comes, we'll make him look good!"

Many people thought resentfully.

As he approached the city gate, Jiang Cheng removed his mask, showed his credentials, and smoothly entered the headquarters' secret garage.

He parked the car, and then just needed to submit it on his phone.

But as soon as he opened the door, a few people walked toward him.

"Cang Hai?"

Among the few, a somewhat familiar voice sounded.

Jiang Cheng glanced and recognized the person who called him by his nickname.

Feng Lai.

Level 4 Original Force Warrior.

Come to think of it, it was thanks to him back then that he opened up his reputation at headquarters, letting many know his Gunmanship.

"Cang Hai, really you?"

Feng Lai looked quite surprised, glanced at the pickup behind Jiang Cheng, sniffed, then looked back at Jiang Cheng.

"What is this?"

Not only he, but also several others, detected the lingering scent of blood inside the cabin.

Could it be that this person just went out to hunt Exotic Beasts? But this newcomer called Cang Hai is only Second Level, isn't he? On what grounds does he dare go hunting in the wild?

Oh, that's how it is.

Jiang Cheng had a sudden idea, scratched his head, and said, "I heard hunting Exotic Beasts in the wild is very profitable, so I went out to try it, and even managed to hit a few first‑ and second‑tier Exotic Beasts. But as I kept going, I started feeling scared, so I turned back home."

The few of them, upon hearing that, first exchanged glances, then all burst into hearty laughter.

Cang Hai, at least you didn't act impulsively; you realized your mistake and turned back.

Feng Lai shook his head.

The wild isn't a place ordinary people can go; even if you're a Second-level Force Warrior, going there is most likely a death sentence, because in the wild, humans are more dangerous than those Exotic Beasts.

Indeed, you're alone; it's fine if you're not discovered, but once you are, the outcome will be more than just tragic.

Better stay at headquarters and keep training; when your strength reaches Level Four or Level Five, like ours, then you'll be able to go out hunting.

One must be aware of one's own strength, otherwise you won't even know how you die.

The few of them exchanged remarks back and forth.

Some were considering Jiang Cheng's welfare.

Others held a sense of superiority, looking down from above.

Jiang Cheng listened and kept nodding.

"By the way, Cang Hai, your Gunmanship is good; would you like to go out and train with us?" At that moment, Feng Lai suddenly asked, "We're just about to head out to the wild."

As the words fell, the few nearby all looked toward him, their eyes showing varying degrees of displeasure.

Seeing this, Feng Lai quickly added, "Because you're a newcomer, we'll have to look after you along the way, so to be blunt, you won't get any loot."

Upon hearing that, the others' expressions improved a bit.

Then they felt a bit tempted.

Within the group, Jiang Cheng is renowned for his precise Gunmanship, almost hitting every shot.

If he went along, with his Gunmanship he might actually hit a few Exotic Beasts.

"Brother Feng Lai, thank you for your kindness; after your persuasion just now, I think I'll keep training for a while longer and go once my strength improves."

Jiang Cheng let out a sigh.
