Chapter 405: Sudden Mission
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the end, the old man still declined.
“No matter how much you give me, my answer will be the same. You can leave now.”
“Little Guang, escort the guest out!”
Not long after, a man with a powerful aura walked in and glanced at Ye Chen.
“Mr. Ye, please.”
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, stood up, and left with a flick of his sleeve.
Since the old man would not say anything, he would think of a way himself.
However, just as Ye Chen took a few steps, the phone in the old man’s pocket rang. The old man glanced at the caller ID and pressed the answer button.
Suddenly, the old man’s expression changed drastically.

“If you want to know the location of the Lin family’s residence, I can reveal it. I promise. But you have to complete one thing for me!”
Ye Chen was stunned. He stopped in his tracks and his eyes turned grave. “What is it?”
The old man looked at Little Guang and said, “You can leave first.”
“Yes, Sir!”
After the man left, the old man pressed a button, and the surroundings shook. The glass and windows above his head were all closed, and the garden became a confined space!
No one could see what was going on inside.
Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed as he sensed that something was wrong.
At this moment, the old man went over to Ye Chen’s side with a livid expression. He got straight to the point.
“Ye Chen, I’ll cut to the chase. I just received a call saying that Bai Lixiong is in danger. A month ago, Bai Lixiong and 20 other experts had entered the depths of Qinling Mountains. However, just two hours ago, their life signals were all cut off. All 21 of them! It’s very likely that something has happened!”
“I’m not sure what happened in Qinling, or if they’re still alive, but if you can find Bai Lixiong and the others, no matter what has happened to them, I will tell you the location of the Lin family’s residence!”
The old man’s tone was serious and nervous.
He had no other choice. The incident at the Qinling Mountains was too important. If anything happened to Bai Lixiong, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Furthermore, he suspected that there were internal forces at play here, so someone independent like Ye Chen was the best candidate!
“Why me?” Ye Chen asked.
“There’s no reason. However, if you agree, this deal will be completed. That being said, I’ll say it first. You won’t have any reinforcements. The Qinling Mountains nurtures one of Huaxia’s dragon veins. You should know the dangers in such a place. It’s your choice!”
The old man looked at the time and was obviously a little anxious. Then, he made a phone call and said coldly, “Prepare a private jet in five minutes.”
After hanging up, the old man stared at Ye Chen with a burning gaze.
“What is your choice?”
Naturally, Ye Chen would not refuse. Bai Lixiong was very important to him. Even if it was not for that piece of land, he would do it for the location of the Lin family’s residence.
“I agree.” Ye Chen said.
“Alright.” The old man came to a wall and pressed his fingerprint on a certain spot. A second later, the wall opened and a hidden cabinet appeared. He unlocked it using iris recognition, and opened the cabinet.
He then took out an unmarked phone and handed it to Ye Chen.
“Don’t ask why Bai Lixiong went to Qinling. This phone contains information about these people. Also, once the phone comes close to the chips implanted in those people’s bodies, it will vibrate.”

For the first time, Ye Chen sensed the fear and seriousness in the old man’s eyes. He nodded and said, “You have to ensure my parents’ safety during the few days I’m away from the capital!”
The old man nodded in agreement.
“I’ll send the experts to protect your mother. As for your father, I’ll put pressure on the Lin family. They won’t touch him for the time being. There’s no time. Someone will take you to the plane.”
Not long after, Ye Chen was brought to a private jet by a stranger.
After some time, the plane finally landed at an airport near the Qinling Mountains in Xishan Province.
When Ye Chen got off the plane, he felt that he was surrounded by huge mountains.
There were few people here. Perhaps it was because this place was not developed for tourists, but Ye Chen did not find anyone else while looking around.
Ye Chen noticed that coordinates had been sent to him on his phone, which indicated the place where Bai Lixiong and the others had disappeared.
There was still a great distance between his current location and where they were last seen, so Ye Chen shook his head helplessly and quickly flew into the depths of the Qinling Mountains.
Along the way, Ye Chen noticed signs of fierce fights around him.
It seemed that these people were quite strong. More than a dozen giant trees had actually been knocked over and broken. From this, one could tell how powerful the combatants were.
Just as Ye Chen was about to go deeper, a killing intent locked onto him!
Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed. He quickly leapt onto a giant tree, climbing it quickly until he reached the top. Once there, he discovered more than a dozen foreigners in combat uniforms searching the base of the tree..
