Shen Haihua was stunned to hear this, as his perception of Ye Chen was that of someone who preferred to be low-key.
Therefore, he had expected Ye Chen to use a proxy rather than to announce his identity and return to the whole world.
If the Heavenly Justice Group and Ye Chen appeared simultaneously, it was easy for any observant person to connect the dots, which would in turn attract danger to both the group and Ye Chen.
More importantly, none of the three conditions he had mentioned to Ye Chen had been fulfilled yet.
“Mr. Ye, are you sure?” Shen Haihua asked seriously.
“I’m certain,” Ye Chen said.
“I know what you’re worried about. What happened five years ago won’t repeat itself again. No one will dare to touch the Heavenly Justice Group now! You just have to trust me on this.”
Shen Haihua could only nod and hang up the call.
After Ye Chen disconnected the call, he was about to leave the balcony when he realized that an unknown number was calling.
“Mr. Ye, are you at your Tomson condominium? I’m here to deliver the goods. I’ll be there in about five minutes.”
It was only then did Ye Chen realize that the Jin family must be sending over the items from the auction.
After checking in on the two girls, he left the apartment.
By the time he reached the top floor of the Tomson Condominiums, he saw two couriers waiting outside, one of whom was Jin Qian.
When Jin Qian saw Ye Chen, his pupils constricted. The palpitations he felt from that day seemed to suddenly reappear.
As an ancient martial artist, he had never been so afraid of someone. He had personally witnessed this person kill a grandmaster as easily as killing a chicken!
“Hello, Mr. Ye. I’m Jin Qian.”
“I know. Bring the stuff in.”
Ye Chen opened the door and gestured toward the two of them.
“Alright, alright…”
Not long after, Jin Qian and the other courier carried the things into the house. Then, they took out a box and carefully handed it to Ye Chen.
“Mr. Ye, please take a look. The big box over there contains the Hundred-Herb Cauldron, while this box contains the Tears of Stars. If you have any questions, you can contact me.”
Ye Chen opened the box and glanced at the Tears of Stars. There was no problem with it, so he went over to the huge box on the ground.
When he placed his palm gently on the box, it shattered.
Seeing this, Jin Qian and the other man subconsciously took a step back.
Due to the special nature of the Hundred-Herb Cauldron, the packaging was made of the strongest TS-003 titanium material. It required a key to open it, yet Mr. Ye had simply used his palm to shatter the box.
This was too violent and powerful!
Ye Chen was overjoyed when he saw the Hundred-Herb Cauldron.
He had been waiting for this thing for too long!
With this pill cauldron, his pill refinement efficiency would be a hundred times higher, and the medicinal effects of those pills would also increase manifold.
At the same time, this would augment and improve his cultivation speed.
Ye Chen waved at the two men and said, “There are no problems with the items, so you can leave now.”
Jin Qian asked the other person to leave first, and then closed the door. He then said softly, “Mr. Ye, Miss Jin asked me to bring you a message.”
“Oh? Go ahead.” Ye Chen was curious.
“The Jiang family has even begun to investigate everyone at the auction. It won’t be long before you turn up on the list of suspects. Even though they probably won’t be able to find concrete evidence, Jiang Yuanli is the type to kill a thousand innocent people rather than let the culprit. Miss Jin is worried that Jiang Yuanli will make a move on Mr. Ye, so she hopes that Mr. Ye will leave River City temporarily.”
“Miss Jin has already arranged a private jet. If Mr. Ye is amiable to this arrangement, we will immediately send you to Hainan. Don’t worry. It will be as comfortable as a vacation.”
Ye Chen smiled and said to Jin Qian, “Help me thank Miss Jin. I appreciate her kindness, but I won’t leave River City. In fact, it would be best if Jiang Yuanli comes to deal with me personally.”
When Jin Qian heard the last sentence, he took a deep breath. His heart felt like it had been pounded by a jackhammer!
Was Mr. Ye not afraid of Jiang Yuanli, an expert who was on the Grandmaster Rankings?
Did he not understand how terrifying the Jiang family was?
Mr. Ye was indeed very strong, but the grandmaster he killed was worlds apart from Jiang Yuanli!
“Mr. Ye, please think twice,” Jin Qian said worriedly.
Ye Chen opened the door and gestured with his eyes, so Jin Qian had no choice but to leave.
Anyway, the Jin family had already made their stance clear. It was Mr. Ye who did not take them up on the opportunity.
After everyone left, Ye Chen lifted the Hundred-Herb Cauldron with one hand and placed it in an appropriate spot. Then, he took out the herbs he had bought at the Virtuous Benevolence Hall and threw them into it. He ignited the fire and covered it with his true qi to begin refining the pill.
This time, he was going to refine a third-grade medicinal pill called the Azure Spirit Pill.
Pills were divided into nine grades, and each grade was further divided into nine patterns.
The Azure Spirit Pill was known as a cultivation speed increasing pill. It could help a cultivator break through their bottlenecks. If a ninth-level soul opening realm expert consumed it, he or she would immediately break through to the qi transformation realm!
With the help of the Azure Spirit Pill, Ye Chen was confident that he would be able to reach the qi transformation realm in a relatively short amount of time.
He closed his eyes tightly. Refining pills required one to take each and every step carefully. His heart was as calm as water, and there were no distracting thoughts in his heart.
Once he was agitated and lost control of his emotions or thoughts, the pill would definitely fail.
After an unknown period of time, the entire condominium was filled with a rich medicinal fragrance.
The Hundred-Herb Cauldron was even emitting a faint red light!
Suddenly, the aura of a medicinal pill surged out of the Hundred-Herb Cauldron. Sensing this powerful aura, Ye Chen rejoiced.
He had succeeded!
Ye Chen ignored the sky-high temperature of the pills and took it out of the cauldron.
Very soon, he discovered that of a total of ten medicinal pills, six were useless.
Fortunately, four of them were successfully refined.
When he examined the four Azure Spirit Pills, Ye Chen’s pupils constricted as if he had seen a ghost. Two of these were actually third-grade seven-pattern pills!
This was excellent!
Ye Chen had not been mentally prepared for this, and honestly would have been satisfied with a few third-grade three-pattern pills. After all, these medicinal herbs were not considered high-grade. Logically speaking, it was impossible to refine a seven-pattern medicinal pill while using them as ingredients.
Could it be…
Ye Chen’s gaze fell on the Hundred-Herb Cauldron. There was only one possibility at the moment, and that was that the Hundred-Herb Cauldron had increased the quality and potency of the herbs.
“It looks like I’ve picked up a treasure this time. Even if this Hundred-Herb Cauldron was placed in that place, it would still be considered a treasure. I’ve made a killing from this….”
