High Martial Arts: Invincible Starts from Basic Archery Chapter 741 - 591: Acquaintance, Of Course You Know_2
"Old Shao, do you know which noble family in our Yan Country this is?"
He asked quietly.
"Which noble family?"
Shao Yuandong laughed.
"Isn’t it?"
Li Jian was stunned.
"It’s not some noble family?"
Wang Lu also showed a look of surprise in her eyes.
She had the same thought as Li Jian, and had even guessed it might be one of the noble families in Juque City or other nearby big cities.
"Of course not."
Shao Yuandong laughed heartily.
Han Xu also laughed out loud.
"???"
Li Jian and Wang Lu exchanged glances, filled with confusion.
"Old Shao, since you know, hurry and tell us. Don’t keep us in suspense."
"Chairman Shao, please tell us quickly."
Wang Lu urged him.
"Okay."
Shao Yuandong coughed, "That person is the Chairman Li I mentioned this morning in the video."
"What!"
"It’s him!"
Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the two exclaimed in surprise, standing still as stone.
Their eyes fixed on Shao Yuandong without blinking.
Is it him?
The Li Ping who killed two Beast King-level Fierce Beasts and a million Fierce Beasts?
Was Shao Yuandong joking with them?
"Yes, it is him."
Shao Yuandong nodded heavily.
"At first, I also had some doubts about Chairman Li Ping, so I thought to share the burden with you. But you didn’t really believe it either, which left all the pressure on me. So, I decided to test, and when Chairman Li came, he placed a few Cyan Jade Fruits in front of Old Han and me, completely dispelling my doubts. Anyone who can casually take out tens of millions of points, if you say he can kill a Beast King, I believe it a hundred percent."
"Yes."
Han Xu also said, "When Chairman Li took out these treasures, I didn’t recognize them. It was only after his explanation that I knew these treasures were from a Secret Realm, a place where even A-level Awakened dare not easily venture. But Chairman Li not only went, he returned with a large amount of treasures."
Li Jian and Wang Lu, upon hearing this, looked at the items on the table and believed eighty percent of it.
Indeed, these treasures couldn’t be found anywhere but in a Secret Realm.
Those safe Secret Realms were firmly controlled by the domestic noble families.
And the unsafe ones, if they went there, with bad luck, they could die.
They couldn’t believe the man in the video, mentioned by Shao Yuandong, was really Li Ping.
The man from a small city, serving as the Chairman of the Awakened Association.
"Chairman Shao, I want to confirm again, the person who took out these treasures is really that Chairman Li?"
Wang Lu asked again.
Shao Yuandong smiled and nodded.
Wang Lu gasped.
It seemed to be true.
After all, the treasures before them were genuine.
And the points needed had to be paid by that person. Chairman Shao had no reason to lie now.
Thinking this, she felt a bit guilty towards Shao Yuandong.
What he said this morning was all true. The Fierce Beasts were indeed not far from Juque City, and an attack was imminent. With his help, they would manage much better.
But they did not believe Shao Yuandong, thinking he was exaggerating.
Twenty million points to recruit an A-level Awakened?
That could recruit dozens of A-levels.
Even giving everyone a million points was doing a favor. If they had directly refused, it would be too disrespectful.
But the reality?
They thought too much.
The person wasn’t even someone who could be recruited with twenty million points!
Even if the points were doubled to forty million, he could still take them out.
"Old Shao, does Chairman Li know what happened this morning?"
Li Jian asked cautiously.
In his eyes, the person was no longer just a benefactor, but an unbeatable strong figure.
Because neither he nor Wang Lu could kill a Beast King-level Fierce Beast, let alone a High-level Beast King.
If he knew their initial attitude, even if he didn’t say it, he would surely have opinions in his heart, right?
That’s human nature. If it were them, they would be unhappy being looked down upon.
"Don’t worry, he doesn’t know. Otherwise, would there be anything happening next?"
Shao Yuandong laughed.
"Am I good to you? For such a good thing, you two are the first ones I thought of."
"Indeed."
Li Jian immediately gave a thumbs up.
It’s just some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can enhance the Primordial True Essence.
Which Awakened Association in other big cities doesn’t have these?
Yet Shao Yuandong still chose them.
Thinking this, he felt very fortunate.
Luckily, he came over right after receiving the call, not missing out on this huge deal, and getting to know this strong person with the same surname.
"Thank you, Chairman Shao."
Wang Lu also quickly expressed her gratitude, and then looked around curiously, "Has Chairman Li already left?"
"Yes, where is he?" Li Jian also asked hastily.
"He has indeed left, and for a while already."
Shao Yuandong nodded, "He seemed to have urgent matters to attend to, only stayed briefly and left. But before leaving, he entrusted me with this matter and handed over these treasures."
"Just handed them over to you?"
Wang Lu was surprised.
If she remembered correctly, Shao Yuandong also just met this person this morning, right?
That Chairman Li, just because he is the chairman here, left treasures worth tens of millions of points?
Isn’t he worried about any accidents?
"Yes, just handed them over."
Shao Yuandong knew what they were thinking and said directly, "I even have a feeling that the happenings in Anshan City this morning aren’t the limit of his strength."
"What, that isn’t his limit?"
Li Jian’s mouth opened wide.
Holding off a million-strong Beast Tide alone, and that’s not his limit?
What then is his limit?
Killing Top-level Beast Kings alone?
Or even killing Beast Emperor-level Fierce Beasts?
That’s something not even three S-Class Awakened could do, and if they could, it would be at a huge cost, likely perishing together.
"Yes, specifically, I can’t say, just a gut feeling."
Shao Yuandong nodded, considering for a moment, still deciding not to disclose what he heard from Qin Jin.
After all, the ability to foresee the future is too powerful. Even if Chairman Li is strong, if someone schemes, there’s still a risk.
"A gut feeling?"
Wang Lu’s expression turned serious.
Ordinary people’s gut feelings are usually accurate.
Not to mention the gut feeling of an A-level Awakened.
"Old Shao, if your gut feeling is right, it’s a huge blessing for Yan Country."
Li Jian sighed.
The sudden occurrence of this Beast Tide likely signifies something big happened among the Fierce Beasts. Otherwise, they wouldn’t break this balance.
There are rumors outside saying a fourth Beast Emperor has appeared among the Fierce Beasts.
And Yan Country currently has only three S-class Awakened. If there really are four Beast Emperors, Yan Country is in great danger unless there’s another S-class Awakened in the country or they seek help from other countries.
But that would come at a big price, and there’s no guarantee others would give their all.
If that Chairman Li is an S-class Awakened, that would be great.
