Suppressing the anger in his heart, he asked word by word, "What exactly is going on?"
Obviously, that little brother on the other side also noticed that there was something wrong with Xiao Chen's tone.
He immediately shrank his neck and did not dare to delay and hurriedly explained the matter.
But the more he heard, the more tightly Xiao Chen's brows knitted.
That little brother told Xiao Chen that Tia Ce was actually injured in his office.
When they heard the commotion, Tia Ce was already unconscious.
The only thing worth rejoicing about was that Tia Ce did not seem to be seriously injured on the surface, but there was a palm print on the back of his neck and chest.
"What are you all doing!?"
After Xiao Chen heard that, he couldn't hold it in anymore and immediately cursed.
Tia Ce was able to be put in an important position because he had absolute trust in Tia Ce.
Currently, among his true subordinates, only Tia Ce was able to gain his full trust.
Even Jiang Loong could not do it.
Of course, the little brother on the other side didn't dare to return the favor. He didn't even try to distinguish between the two.
Xiao Chen couldn't be bothered to scold him anymore. He asked directly, "Where is Di Yue?"
To be able to knock Tia Ce out with just two slaps, the opponent's strength naturally couldn't be underestimated. He had to be at least a Peak of Outer Astral.
However, didn't Di Yue send him to Yanjing to prevent such a situation?
But now, Tia Ce was still injured, and he was in his own office.
How could Xiao Chen not be angry?
"That, that..."
"What happened?" Xiao Chen's face turned stern as he asked in a stern voice.
The person on the other side was so frightened that he trembled. He hurriedly said, "Actually, Grandmaster Di has not been able to be contacted since last night."
"Yesterday, wasn't that the time when Tia Ce was injured?"
"Yes!"
Xiao Chen frowned even more when he heard that.
The raging anger actually calmed down at this moment.
This was too much of a coincidence!
Initially, he was only worried that Tia Ce had been killed by the people of Zheng family. But now, he was shaken.
Because there seemed to be someone more suspicious.
"First, sir?"
"Alright, I know about this. When Tia Ce wakes up, tell him to rest in peace and recover. As for the brothers from Yanjing, calm down for the next two days. I will rush there in a few days! "
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and ordered with a frown.
Since he had already said so, how could his little brother dare to refute him? He nodded his head in a hurry.
When he hung up on the collection, Xiao Chen's expression did not recover.
His face was cold as he stood there. When he thought of Di Yue, his brows furrowed more and more tightly.
But in the end, he did not say anything more.
The sky gradually became dark. Xiao Chen tidied up a bit and laid down on the bed. The night passed just like that.
The next day, he had been waiting for contact.
Whether it was Lin Yichao or Tia Ce from Yanjing, it didn't matter.
However, after waiting for a long time, not a single call came in.
By evening, Ruan Hongyu's contact finally arrived. Only then did Xiao Chen pack up and quietly left the branch.
At the Shangyu port, Ruan Hongyu had already prepared a boat.
After all, it was going to the open sea, so the boat was naturally not small. There were also five people arranged for it.
Xiao Chen naturally mixed in with the people from the Ruan family.
In order to ensure that the transaction would proceed smoothly, and also to let the other party see their sincerity, Ruan Hongyu thought to herself. Her brother, Ruan Yi, was sent out as well.
Of course, the transaction with the pirates this time would also be fully handled by Ruan Yi.
However, that was only when those guys from the Ruan family didn't know about Xiao Chen's identity.
Of course, he couldn't make the decision on his own.
Because of Ruan Xiangjun's matter, the Ruan family didn't like Xiao Chen from the beginning, but they were more or less grateful towards him.
One should know that the Hidden Sect was a place that many people couldn't enter even if they racked their brains.
However, because of Xiao Chen, Ruan Xiangjun easily entered. The others were only able to get a spot in the selection.
However, Loo Zhuo had made a promise to Ruan Xiangjun. That was, there was no need for the selection. She would enter the sect immediately.
This was also the current situation. The people who had failed the selection had not returned yet.
Once they returned and the news of Ruan Xiangjun entering the sect spread, those families who had caused trouble for the Red Association would be worried.
However, Xiao Chen did not claim credit for it.
Just like he had said before, sending Ruan Xiangjun away was purely for his own sake.
Therefore, Xiao Chen did not take Ruan Yi's enthusiasm and politeness to heart.
Since he was here to help, he would keep his mouth shut and not cause trouble for others.
The five people selected by the Ruan family naturally had sailors as well, so he didn't have to worry about not finding a path on the sea.
Just like that, they drove from the beginning of the night to the deep night.
Around 3: 30 a.m., the ship also sailed into the open sea area.
And on the boundless black sea surface, a dazzling light suddenly appeared.
Several ships were laid across the sea, and dozens of figures stood at the bow of the ship, raising their eyes to look in this direction.
The roaring sound was accompanied by the crashing sound of the boat crashing against the side of the boat. It sounded particularly ear-piercing in the silent night sky.
As Xiao Chen and the others approached, a middle-aged man also walked out of the crowd and glanced at Ruan Yi and the others with narrowed eyes.
Ruan Yi did not look at them. Instead, he looked at the cargo ship behind the two ships at the front.
That's right. That was the cargo ship that the Red Association had lost contact with.
"Where's the thing?"
"There's no reason to pay without checking the goods. Who knows what you have done to our items!"
Although they were close, the ship was still more than 200 meters away.
Yes, sir. After a round of communication, it was almost as if they were shouting at each other at the top of their lungs.
"You don't seem to have figured it out!"
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed and he immediately said to Ruan Yi with a smirk.
As he spoke, his gaze swept across the few people behind Ruan Yi.
Xiao Chen naturally had his head lowered.
"Is that so?" Ruan Yi sneered and directly took out a document bag. With a kacha sound, he lit up the lighter.
Then, without any hesitation, he put the lighter under the document.
It was the sound of the sea wind blowing the fire. The fire jumped and burned the document clean.
Seeing the dust fall to the ground, it melted into the sea.
The faces of the people on the two pirate ships instantly darkened.
"You have guts! I guess you must have another one!"
"Of course, but it's here!" Ruan Yi reached out and knocked his head.
After saying that, he smirked and said, "Move the boat, or we'll turn around and leave immediately!"
"Good, very good. As expected of a businessman. A business that doesn't use one's life to do, what kind of business is it!? "
On the other side, the middle-aged man was waiting for Ruan Yi with a gloomy voice. His voice was extremely cold.
After saying that, he stared at Ruan Yi for a while before waving his hand and calling for the two "pirate ships" to retreat, letting the Ruan family's ships in.
"Not enough. Two hundred meters!"
Seeing that the other party had only made enough space for a boat to pass, Ruan Yi immediately shouted.
