The once arrogant Kuang Rui suddenly became quiet.
The clamorous noise also ceased abruptly in an instant.
Watching Kuang Rui slowly fall to the ground, lifeless, a trace of pity flashed in Li Chen’s eyes.
Pity this guy, who until his death, never understood the gap between himself and Li Chen.
But then, an odd thought emerged in Li Chen’s mind; perhaps dying in ignorance is sometimes a form of bliss?
Li Chen could feel that the burden resting on his shoulders was indeed a bit too heavy.
Unknown enemies, and those seemingly insurmountable mountains, Li Chen did not know when he would possess the power to match them.
But he understood that what he could do now was only to become continuously stronger to face the challenges that were soon to come.
With the fall of Kuang Rui, sudden chaos broke out in the entire basement.
Some wanted to flee, while others wanted to throw their lot in with Li Chen; various noises of confusion echoed throughout the underground nightclub.
Just at that moment, a voice suddenly spread throughout the nightclub.
This voice was not Li Chen’s.
It was... Luo Zhi Tao.
"Everyone, let’s calm down," Luo Zhi Tao looked at the Jinhua Gang members he had personally trained, with a strange expression on his face.
"Kuang Rui, our current gang leader, seized control of Jinhua Gang through what means, everyone here knows well. So, do any of you still hold any expectations for him?"
As expected, with Luo Zhi Tao’s words, the assembly gradually quieted down, many lowered their heads, lost in thought.
Originally, it was through power that Kuang Rui made them submit.
But in reality, they didn’t quite acknowledge this gang leader.
"So, boss, what do you say we should do?" a Jinhua Gang member couldn’t help but look towards Luo Zhi Tao.
"Last time, we surrendered, but this time, with just one word from you, we will definitely fight to the death!" someone suddenly spoke through clenched teeth, their gaze turning towards Li Chen, who stood motionless, a flicker of fierceness in their eyes.
They too were men of blood, and to submit to power, once was enough. A second time would be a disgrace to them.
"We..." Luo Zhi Tao started to speak but then fell silent.
Because he also didn’t know how to answer.
In Kuang Rui’s eyes, the entire Jinhua Gang was worth nothing, let alone now when they were faced with a formidable being who had killed Kuang Rui.
To become someone else’s lackey? This was something Luo Zhi Tao vehemently resented in his heart.
At this moment, Li Chen, who had been still as a statue since killing Kuang Rui, finally moved.
His gaze turned to those around him, a faint smile appearing on his face.
"Don’t worry, I have no interest in you."
As Li Chen’s voice fell, the surroundings went abruptly quiet.
"I came here actually to look for something. Dealing with this guy was just incidental. Once I find what I’m looking for, I will naturally leave. What you all choose to do is your business; what does it have to do with me?"
Li Chen found the attitudes of these guys rather amusing.
It was as if their gang was something remarkable.
Yet in reality, Li Chen didn’t even take this second-rate gang seriously.
If he wanted to, he could easily dispatch a few members of the Nether Army to completely eradicate this Jinhua Gang. To him, a gang held no value at all.
However, Luo Zhi Tao reacted differently after hearing Li Chen’s words, and he was suddenly taken aback.
He doesn’t want the Jinhua Gang?
"Then, may I ask, what are you here for..."
Li Chen did not respond to Luo Zhi Tao’s question, and, with a glance at Kuang Rui on the ground, walked straight in a certain direction.
Wherever Li Chen went, people involuntarily made way for him.
Although they spoke bravely, who would actually want to oppose such a terrifying figure unless absolutely necessary?
After passing through a corridor, Li Chen disappeared from everyone’s sight.
Standing in front of a door, Li Chen’s eyes flickered with a hint of curiosity.
Is the thing the Ginseng Doll spoke of really here?
Looking down at his chest, Li Chen saw the Ginseng Doll nodding its little head vigorously.
Without further hesitation, Li Chen reached out and pushed the door open.
This was an office that looked quite ordinary, but as soon as he entered, Li Chen’s attention was immediately captured by a potted plant on the desk.
A dense Spiritual Energy enveloped the plant.
Even through the Spiritual Energy, Li Chen could see the faint glow shimmering on the petals of the purple flower.
The petals were smooth and clean, free from any dirt; it seemed that someone regularly cared for it to keep it this clean.
"Is this...the Purple Sunflower?" Looking at the purple bloom, a wave of excitement rose in Li Chen’s heart.
He had come to Silver Sun City to search for the Purple Sunflower, and now, unexpectedly, he found it so quickly.
"With this, I can finally return." A sigh of relief crossed Li Chen’s mind.
Carefully he took the flower, packed it away, and without any hesitation, left the office.
When he came out, he saw a crowd outside looking around at each other, waiting for him.
Li Chen’s gaze remained very calm.
He wasn’t joking; he truly had no interest in this Jinhua Gang.
A small gang , what could it possibly have to interest him?
Without paying any attention to these people, Li Chen turned to Luo Zhi Tao, who was rushing over: "Deal with the bodies yourselves, no problem, right?"
"No problem, of course no problem, but Mr. Li you..." Luo Zhi Tao hesitated in his response.
"I’ve found what I was looking for and am leaving now. If there’s nothing else, I will soon depart from Silver Sun City." Li Chen said indifferently.
"Ah? You’re leaving Silver Sun?" Luo Zhi Tao looked somewhat astonished.
"I came here to find something, and now that I have found it, naturally I will leave," Li Chen said calmly. "If you’re thinking of thanking me or something, there’s no need. I have a few friends in Silver Sun City, just help me look out for them from time to time, that will do."
"I’ll make sure of it!" Luo Zhi Tao said, patting his chest.
After giving Luo Zhi Tao a look, Li Chen didn’t say anything more and turned to leave.
