Chapter 99 Reckless and Unaware of Death

Jiang Chenfeng only knew that his physique had reached a certain level of strength.

However, he had no idea what specific realm he had reached; he had no concept of it.

After spending half the day busy at the company, he returned to the villa, intending to take a nap.

Ring, ring!

Not long after he lay down, the phone rang.

"Who is it?"

Jiang Chenfeng answered the phone and asked.

"General Manager Jiang, it's me! It's Zhou Lin!" a voice came from the other end of the line.

Zhou Lin was a project manager at Hongtu Group and had intricate ties with the Jiang Family.

His father was the cousin of Jiang Chenfeng's mother, which was why he was able to secure the position of project manager.

"Oh, Zhou Lin? What do you want with me?"

"There's a problem with the project here, and I need you to come over in person!" Zhou Lin said.

"A problem?"

Hearing Zhou Lin's words, Jiang Chenfeng's drowsy head suddenly cleared up quite a bit.

He suddenly recalled a plot point from the original story: this Zhou Lin was a turncoat in the Hongtu Group!

If nothing went wrong, this guy must have already defected to Lin Tian and wanted to lure him out so Lin Tian's subordinates could kill him.

Under Lin Tian, there were the Seven Great Assassins, and beneath them was an assassin organization called "Shadow"!

Although the Shadow assassin organization could not compare to the top-tier assassination strength of the Seven Great Assassins, it was definitely not to be underestimated.

But Jiang Chenfeng's physique was now strong enough that he might not necessarily lose to the members of the Shadow assassin organization!

"Yes! It's a huge problem; I'm afraid it requires you to step in personally to resolve it!" Zhou Lin said solemnly.

"Is that so..."

Jiang Chenfeng fell into hesitation.

Ling Wei, who happened to be passing by the door, frowned slightly and paused after hearing Zhou Lin's voice.

Zhou Lin?

Hadn't this guy already defected to Shadow?

Could it be that the Dragon King was making a move?

"Alright! I'll come over immediately! Send me the address!" Jiang Chenfeng nodded and said.

Ling Wei's expression changed slightly, and she immediately wanted to push the door open to stop Jiang Chenfeng from meeting Zhou Lin.

But after thinking about it carefully, she stopped in her tracks and dismissed the thought.

If she went out like that, it would be equivalent to exposing her identity.

It would be better to follow behind Jiang Chenfeng and find an opportunity to save his life!

With this decision made, Ling Wei followed behind Jiang Chenfeng and left the villa.

Jiang Chenfeng knew that Zhou Lin intended to betray him, so naturally, he had another plan prepared.

He returned to the old Jiang Family residence and found his father, Jiang Hongye, to hire two Bodyguards.

These two Bodyguards were Ancient Martial Artists from urban power-fantasy novels, possessing combat power that transcended the mundane world.

Although these two had no fame in the Ancient Martial Arts world, they could be considered top-tier experts in reality.

The two were brothers; the elder brother was named Huang Ruitian, and the younger brother was named Huang Ruidi!

Upon seeing Jiang Chenfeng, they nodded slightly and greeted him: "Hello, Young Master Jiang!"

Towards Jiang Chenfeng, a dandy, their attitude was extremely cold; they held no respect or affection for him.

Jiang Chenfeng didn't care about this; he just wanted to bring them along to add an extra layer of protection for himself.

Furthermore, in the plot of such an urban power-fantasy novel, it was quite normal for these experts from the outside world to look down on the dandies of the mundane world.

Ancient Martial Artists were not people of the mundane world to begin with, so maintaining a superior attitude was only natural.

"The two of you, I'll have to trouble you to protect my personal safety from now on," Jiang Chenfeng said.

In truth, he also knew that these two before him were simply no match for the experts of the Shadow assassin organization.

After all, the Shadow assassin organization was under Lin Tian's command, and it was filled with first-class experts.

Even a dog from within it would be a hegemon among dogs, an existence possessing royal bloodlines!

Huang Ruitian and Huang Ruidi nodded and agreed upon hearing Jiang Chenfeng's words.

"Young Master Jiang, we can be responsible for your personal safety, but we will not engage in any bullying of men or women!"

"That's right! If you want us to help you commit any illegal or criminal acts, you'd better look for someone else!"

They were, after all, dignified Ancient Martial Artists and absolutely did not want to become a shield for a dandy like Jiang Chenfeng.

Even if they had only come to the Jiang Family to work as Bodyguards for money, they still wanted to maintain their integrity.

"Rest assured! You only need to be responsible for protecting my personal safety, that's enough! Of course, if the enemies I encounter pose no threat to me, you don't need to take action!"

Under Jiang Chenfeng's deliberate arrangement, Huang Ruitian and Huang Ruidi sat in the car behind.

Jiang Chenfeng drove a luxury sports car alone, heading towards the project location where Zhou Lin was.

"Brother, I've heard that this eldest young master of the Jiang Family has a terrible reputation and is a famous dandy in Yun Province. We are from an Ancient Martial Arts family, after all; acting as personal Bodyguards for someone like this is truly too shameful!" Huang Ruidi said with dissatisfaction.

Huang Ruitian consoled him: "I know how you feel, and I don't want to serve someone like this either, but we've already promised Jiang Hongye. At the very least, let's finish this task for him before resigning and leaving; it's not too late."

To put it nicely, they were personal Bodyguards. To put it bluntly, they were just Jiang Chenfeng's lackeys!

If they weren't in urgent need of money, they wouldn't have compromised themselves to work for the Jiang Family.

At the entrance to the project base, a young man of about thirty years old stood waiting patiently.

When he saw a luxury sports car drive up, he immediately went to greet it with a face full of smiles: "General Manager Jiang, thank you for making the trip yourself!"

"How is the situation?"

"The place where the problem occurred is on the other side of the project base. Let me drive you over!"

"Alright, get in!" Jiang Chenfeng moved away from the driver's seat and sat in the back seat of the car.

Meanwhile, on a hillside to the north of the project base, four men dressed in black clothing sat in the grass smoking cigarettes, seemingly waiting for someone.

"Did Zhou Lin send a message?" Among the four, a man with a withered face spoke with gloomy eyes.

"He did! It's estimated that it will take another ten minutes before they arrive here," one person replied.

"Ten minutes?"

"Should we prepare in advance?" that person asked.

"Is that necessary? He's just a dandy! If we need to prepare in advance to deal with a person like this, do we Shadow assassins still have any face left?"

The man with the withered face lit another cigarette, took a deep drag, and continued: "It's said that because of this kid, Sixth Dragon ended up in prison. If we kill this kid, it can be considered avenging Sixth Dragon."

"It's a real pity about Sixth Dragon; with such good skills, he hadn't even had the chance to make a big move after returning to the country before he was directly arrested. I heard he's going to be sentenced to life imprisonment!"
