Chapter 310: Ji Chen’s Thoughts, Jiang Che’s Keen Sense
After taking the leather bag from Li Yuan, Ji Chen didn’t hesitate. He opened the bag directly, taking out a pristine porcelain bottle.
He unscrewed the cap and then poured out a glistening white pill. He swallowed it in one go, feeling the pill dissolve into a warm current that flowed through his meridians, nourishing his entire body.
Ji Chen also took out some special herbs from the bag, quickly removing the bandages from his arm and applying the herbs.
“What are you standing there for? Get over here and help me set the bone!” Ji Chen’s forehead was covered in beads of sweat, and he snapped at the bewildered Li Yuan standing nearby.
“My apologies, God of War…” Li Yuan muttered, his face solemn, as he stepped forward and grabbed Ji Chen’s arm.
With a forceful motion and a clear cracking sound, Ji Chen’s arm was set back into its proper shape.
Ji Chen frowned, enduring the intense pain in silence. He had done this before, and despite the excruciating pain, he managed to bear it.
“It’s done, sir…” Li Yuan spoke cautiously, retreating to his original position.
He knew Ji Chen had suffered considerable humiliation at the Bihai Flower Villa and wondered if he would take out his anger on them today.
Ji Chen tested his arm’s mobility. Though it was still painful, it wasn’t as intense as before.
The Snow Spirit Pill was indeed miraculous, especially when combined with the herbs he had.
“Go to Crouching Dragon Villa and monitor Jiang Che’s movements. Record his daily activities for me.”
“Understood.” Li Yuan responded respectfully, preparing to leave the ward.
“Be careful not to let Jiang Che discover you. Just observe from a distance.” Ji Chen sternly instructed, his expression serious.
He knew from their brief encounter yesterday that Jiang Che was no ordinary opponent. By his estimation, Jiang Che was at least in the late stage of Man and Heaven realm.
Li Yuan, being only at the peak of the transformation realm, could easily be exposed if he wasn’t cautious, which would cause more trouble.
“Yes, sir.” Li Yuan nodded gravely, having witnessed Jiang Che’s formidable abilities firsthand and not daring to relax his vigilance.
“You may all leave now.” After Li Yuan left, Ji Chen looked at the other black-clad men and waved them away.
He then laid back on the hospital bed. Although the Snow Spirit Pill helped with his internal injuries, he needed a few more days to fully recover.
During this time, he could take the opportunity to rest. Despite his high status in the Northern Territory, he lived cautiously every day, fearing an assassination attempt due to his numerous enemies.
He hadn’t had a proper rest in a long time.
At nine in the evening, a few hundred meters from Crouching Dragon Villa, up a tree.
Li Yuan, dressed in a black night outfit, used a night vision scope to watch the villa entrance.
He had been there for over an hour, not daring to leave. He knew Jiang Che’s high cultivation level meant even the slightest disturbance could alert him.
Li Yuan scanned the road with his binoculars, puzzled. It was late, but Jiang Che hadn’t returned home yet.
Jiang Che’s villa was in the suburbs of Linjiang City, isolated and serene, with no nearby population.
The villa stood alone at the foot of a small hill, offering excellent scenery without the city’s heavy smog. It was also only about a twenty-minute drive from the bustling city center.
The land was originally intended for development but was purchased by Jiang Tao, who built the estate as an eighteenth birthday gift for Jiang Che.
Just as Li Yuan was about to call it a night, a black Maybach entered his view, heading towards the villa.
Li Yuan became more alert, crouching down to avoid detection.
Man and Heaven realm cultivators were extremely sensitive to their surroundings. Even a minor disturbance could alert them.
Ah Long stopped the car briefly at the villa entrance, honking twice to signal the guard to let them in.
Jiang Che, sitting in the passenger seat, slowly opened his eyes and rolled down the right window, intending to smoke.
But as soon as he opened the window, he sensed something unusual.
There were martial artists nearby!
