Finally, the few people cleaned the ground.
All five were in tears.
Lu Gang said to the security guards who rushed over, "Throw them out!"
The security guards, enduring their disgust, carried them out and dumped them at the company entrance.
Lu Gang also hurried over.
"Go back and tell your boss, if you dare to cause trouble at our company again, let your boss taste this feeling too. Scram!" Lu Gang said.
"You just wait!" Yellow Hair spat out a threat and fled with his subordinates.
Chen Jie soon learned of this incident.
"It seems Zhao Zilong's wicked intentions are still alive!" Chen Jie was at Qianlong Villa, supervising the renovation crew as they remodeled the villa.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" He Yufei offered proactively.
A moment later, Ji Tong appeared before Chen Jie.
After destroying the Tianyi Sect yesterday, Ji Tong had immediately gone abroad to bring his entire family over.
The first thing he did upon arriving in Great Xia today was to meet Chen Jie.
"Mr. Chen, let me work for you! From now on, I, Ji Tong, will be your dog!" Ji Tong's capabilities had deeply shaken him.
He had recovered his strength and miraculously survived, having the opportunity to distance himself from trouble. With his abilities, he could still live a comfortable life.
However, he felt that following Chen Jie offered a more promising future.
Chen Jie hadn't expected Ji Tong to seek him out after he had set him free.
A thought crossed his mind.
Chen Jie said, "Alright, if you're willing to work for me, you can. I'll give you a task right now. Go to Shengshi Company! If anyone goes there to cause trouble, you'll handle it."
Chen Jie couldn't keep an eye on a small company himself.
He wouldn't even constantly manage Shengtian Company.
He wasn't suited to handle such matters himself.
"Yes! I'll go right away!" Ji Tong said.
"Wait!" Chen Jie secretly thought that Zhao Zilong wanted to pull Li Ziling into his camp and wouldn't give up so easily.
With the failure of Yellow Hair's plan, Zhao Zilong would likely send more experts.
Ji Tong, as a Heavenly Rank expert, was formidable against ordinary martial artists, but he still had a gap when facing descendants of War Gods like Zhao Zilong.
Thinking of this, he took out a jade pendant from his chest.
Then he made a gesture in the air.
Subsequently, he injected some spiritual energy into it.
He then threw it to Ji Tong.
"This jade pendant is equivalent to my full power strike at two parts of my strength. If you encounter danger, use this jade pendant, and it can save your life."
"Ah! Thank you, Mr. Chen!" Ji Tong was extremely excited.
He secretly thought that following Chen Jie was indeed the right choice.
At the same time, he was secretly astonished.
Hiding an attack within a jade pendant to be used when needed was a method typically possessed by powerful sorcerers.
And as far as he knew, even powerful sorcerers found it extremely difficult to attach their attacks to an object.
Chen Jie had actually achieved it.
Ji Tong immediately realized the preciousness of this jade pendant and became even more loyal to Chen Jie.
In reality, this was a simple matter for Chen Jie.
Since he could craft protective talismans, he could also craft single-use offensive artifacts.
However, Chen Jie had no intention of selling such powerful offensive artifacts.
Otherwise, if they fell into the wrong hands, it would be disastrous for those around him.
At the detective agency, Wen Jing looked at Yellow Hair and the others, her face as dark as ink.
She immediately called Zhao Zilong and informed him, "Boss, our intelligence was flawed. Although Chen Jie wasn't at Shengshi Company, there was a peak Earth Rank expert inside Shengshi Company!"
"What? Wen Jing, we are a detective agency, and we've always been successful in investigating others' affairs. How can the information regarding ourselves be so frequently wrong?" Zhao Zilong said irritably.
Wen Jing lowered her head in shame.
In the past, their company had leveraged Zhao Zilong's connections to freely access internal information from all over the country for the jobs they took.
In essence, they could find out about many things with just a quick investigation.
This was a significant difference from ordinary detective agencies.
Because other detective agencies had to gather information themselves.
If this matter were to spread, it would likely have a significant impact on their detective agency.
"Forget it! It's not entirely your fault. All of this fellow's information is very well hidden. Our usual methods don't work on him!" Zhao Zilong said on the phone. "It's a shame that most of my father's legacy is overseas, and some of my subordinates cannot show themselves publicly for the time being. Otherwise, with just one command, a hundred thousand troops could flatten Shengshi Company!"
Wen Jing's eyes showed admiration.
The son of the War God, terrifying indeed.
"I'll let Niu Huan take action directly! I don't believe that with Shengshi Company on the verge of collapse, Li Ziling would still choose to stay by that guy's side! That ungrateful bitch!" Zhao Zilong grumbled.
Wen Jing's body trembled.
She knew this Niu Huan; he was one of Zhao Zilong's confidants.
Before the Kunlun War God passed away, he had even worked for him, making him an old loyal retainer of the Zhao family.
Moreover, his strength had reached the Grandmaster level.
Zhao Zilong's efficiency was very high, and Niu Huan found Wen Jing not long after.
After discussing for a while, they immediately began to implement Zhao Zilong's plan.
Zhao Zilong sneered, "He wants to compete with me for Li Ziling? Does he even deserve it?"
He picked up a phone and sent a text message to a number: "Babe, it's another day I miss you. When can we meet?"
After a while, there was no response from the other party.
Zhao Zilong casually scrolled up. These were some of the ambiguous text messages he had sent.
The recipient was Li Ziling's phone number.
The last time he investigated Li Ziling's identity, he had obtained her phone number.
At that time, he had already made up his mind. Besides pursuing Lin Shuang, Li Ziling was also one of his major targets.
But who was he, Zhao Zilong? How could he openly pursue ordinary women? Women had always been the ones to approach him.
He would not let others know that he was flattering a woman!
Zhao Zilong's strategy for pursuing women was very different.
He had over a dozen mobile phones, each sending text messages to Li Ziling.
The phone he was holding now was labeled: "Warm Guy Mode."
Zhao Zilong was well-versed in the art of wooing women. Some women responded to gentleness and not toughness, while others responded to toughness and not gentleness. Without interacting with them, how could he know what kind of woman his target was?
Therefore, his dozen mobile phones came in handy.
Each phone chatted with her under a different persona.
There was always one style that his target would accept.
The "Warm Guy Mode" phone sent gentle words to Li Ziling.
He also had phones for "Cool and Arrogant Mode," "Simp Mode," "Overbearing CEO Mode," "Perverted Mode," and "Flirty Mode," and so on.
The style of text messages sent from each phone corresponded to its respective mode.
