Chapter 2958

~8 min read 1,459 words

At this moment, Howard Rothschild's mentality was on the verge of collapse.

Although the scene had been cleaned up by his people and Hank and the others had been hidden away by him, with plans to find a suitable opportunity to send them all overseas to avoid the limelight, he was still extremely depressed in his heart.

He had expended so much energy and endured so much public pressure, yet he still hadn't been able to find the whereabouts of the Four-Directional Treasure Tower.

Not finding it was one thing.

He had also dragged the Anti-Tianshi Association into it;

What was even more infuriating was that he had inexplicably gotten involved in a life-and-death relationship with a core member of the Anti-Tianshi Association.

If he could deceive everyone and find the Four-Directional Treasure Tower back, these sufferings wouldn't have been in vain. But if the Four-Directional Treasure Tower couldn't be found and the Anti-Tianshi Association came to him for revenge, he would truly have the urge to die.

The torture of the past few days caused his blood pressure to rise continuously. After his private doctor examined him, he strongly suggested that he must use antihypertensive drugs and ensure sufficient sleep to reduce the burden on his body and lower the risk of sudden death.

But Howard was terrified that there might be some news about the Anti-Tianshi Association and the Four-Directional Treasure Tower, so he had no sleepiness at all and could only take his blood pressure medicine and continue to hold on.

In the early morning, as the red sun gradually rose in New York, the flight Chen Zhaozhong was on finally landed at Jin Ling Airport in the night on the other side of the earth.

At this time, Lin Wan'er's foster son, Sun Zhidong, was already sitting in Qiu Yingshan's private jet, waiting for Chen Zhaozhong's arrival.

In order to complete the handover of the Four-Directional Treasure Tower as soon as possible, Sun Zhidong learned in advance that Chen Zhaozhong's flight had landed at a remote stand, so he arranged for his own men to wait at the adjacent remote stand.

After Chen Zhaozhong's plane stopped steadily at the stand, they took Chen Zhaozhong directly to the plane where Sun Zhidong was. It was also here that Chen Zhaozhong met Sun Zhidong, who had been waiting for a long time.

In order to dispel all of Chen Zhaozhong's doubts, after a brief self-introduction, Sun Zhidong said to Chen Zhaozhong: "Mr. Chen, if it's convenient for you, please send a video call to Mr. Ye. I will synchronize the situation with both of you at the same time."

"Okay." Chen Zhaozhong nodded and sent a video call to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was in Helena's suite at this time. Upon receiving Chen Zhaozhong's video, he answered it immediately.

After the video connected, Ye Chen asked Chen Zhaozhong: "Uncle Zhong, you have arrived in Jin Ling safely, right?"

Chen Zhaozhong said respectfully: "Reporting to Young Master, the subordinate has arrived."

As he spoke, he switched the video to the rear camera, letting Sun Zhidong appear in the frame, and then added: "Mr. Sun says there are some situations he wants to synchronize with you."

Ye Chen said politely on the other end of the phone: "Grandpa Sun, thank you for your hard work this time."

Sun Zhidong hurriedly said: "Young Master Ye is too polite. Sharing the worries for you and the young lady is not hard work at all."

As he spoke, he went straight to the point: "Young Master Ye, let me synchronize the current situation with you. I have already notified the Yan Jing side through an absolutely safe channel in advance. Upon learning that the Four-Directional Treasure Tower is returning to China, they also attach great importance to this matter. They have even authorized the plane I am on to land directly at the Yan Jing military airport and dispatched troops to protect it, completing the handover of the Four-Directional Treasure Tower there. Since it is a national treasure, the Yan Jing side will definitely take the safest method to properly receive this treasure. Young Master Ye can rest assured."

Ye Chen nodded and laughed: "Once the item reaches China, I can breathe a sigh of relief. For this last step, I will trouble you, Grandpa Sun, to complete it for me. I have no other request, just one: don't expose my identity."

"You can rest assured about that!" Sun Zhidong said firmly: "I have already made it clear to them. Although they don't know your identity, Young Master Ye, they are very clear that bringing the Four-Directional Treasure Tower back from the United States at this time is truly not easy, so they will definitely respect your request."

"Good." Ye Chen was completely relieved and said with a smile: "Then I'll wait for the media reports on the news of the Four-Directional Treasure Tower returning to the country."

"No problem." Sun Zhidong smiled: "You can rest assured about this matter. Everything has been arranged there. It will land in Yan Jing in two hours. There will be military reporters filming some footage. At ten o'clock in the evening, some of the processed footage will be handed over to the evening news for broadcast. You can pay attention to it."

"Okay!" Ye Chen laughed: "Then I will pay close attention and wait for the news to be released."

Just as the plane Sun Zhidong was on took off in Jin Ling, the Boeing 777 Wu Feiyan was on finally landed at New York Kennedy Airport.

Wu Feiyan on the plane felt a bit cramped and uneasy.

Although she knew very well in her heart that for the sake of the Four-Directional Treasure Tower, she had to make a trip to the United States.

However, thinking that she had broken her low profile of several decades and frequently went out recently, she still vaguely felt something was wrong.

Ever since the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union began in the last century, Wu Feiyan had almost never left the base.

The reason she didn't leave the base much was mainly because she had witnessed the rapid development of various technologies during the Cold War.

The faster technology developed, the more wary she became, and she was especially wary of the official authorities of these superpowers.

Because to these superpowers, no matter how strong the Anti-Tianshi Association was, it was nothing more than an ant. Once targeted by any of these superpowers, she would face a devastating disaster.

For example, the headquarters of the Anti-Tianshi Association, which she had spent huge manpower and material resources to build bit by bit, probably couldn't withstand the saturation attack of a guided-missile destroyer. Therefore, coming to the United States this time, Wu Feiyan had also been reminding herself in her heart to try to keep a low profile.

When entering the country, Wu Feiyan and Wu Tianlin each used a seamless Swedish identity. After successfully passing through customs, Wu Feiyan, who was concerned about the Four-Directional Treasure Tower, said to Wu Tianlin: "Contact the Zhongyong Earl and ask how the situation is."

"Okay, Master, the subordinate will contact the Zhongyong Earl right away!" Wu Tianlin said, taking out his phone without hesitation and calling the Zhongyong Earl.

But to his surprise, the Zhongyong Earl's phone was actually turned off!

He couldn't help but whisper: "Master, the Zhongyong Earl's phone is turned off."

"Turned off?!" Wu Feiyan frowned: "With the Zhongyong Earl's habits, even if there were something very important, it's unlikely he would turn off his phone. What happened this time?"

Wu Tianlin shook his head: "The subordinate doesn't know either. Master, should the subordinate call Chen Zhimin?"

Wu Feiyan nodded expressionlessly and said: "Call him!"

Wu Tianlin hurriedly dialed Chen Zhimin's number again, but the phone still indicated it was turned off.

This made Wu Tianlin feel a bit strange, and he couldn't help but say: "I don't know what happened to these two, that they both turned off their phones."

Wu Feiyan's expression instantly became a bit nervous and uneasy. She subconsciously took out her own phone and opened a piece of software on it.

This software was the positioning software of the Anti-Tianshi Association.

Core members of the Anti-Tianshi Association must carry dedicated mobile phones with positioning functions when they go out. The phones will continuously upload their satellite positioning locations to the server. In this way, Wu Feiyan can grasp the specific movements of each of them.

When Wu Feiyan checked the real-time locations of the Zhongyong Earl and Chen Zhimin on the software, she was astonished to find that the coordinate points of these two people had actually disappeared!
