High Martial Arts: Invincible Starts from Basic Archery novel Chapter 289

Chapter 289: Chapter 288: Xiao Hong, How Are You in Anshan City? (Seeking Subscriptions)

Hearing such sharp words from Chen Fan, Xiao Hong’s face turned red, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

When had he ever suffered such humiliation?

In terms of status, at headquarters, he was second only to those few True Essence Realm Martial Artists, such as the chairman.

Even if he encountered other Meridian Refining Realm Martial Artists, they would have to respectfully call him Brother Xiao, not to mention those below the Meridian Refining Realm.

But in front of this person, he had no way to retort.

Because the disparity in strength was so vast that he hadn’t even noticed when the other person made their move.

"Brother Chen is right," Sun Wei said with lingering fear, "if we keep someone like this around, who knows when he’ll stab us in the back. We should just let headquarters deal with him."

"No, no!"

Xiao Hong’s face changed drastically, and then he showed a pleading look, "Brother Chen, Brother Chen, I beg you, please don’t report this to headquarters. If they find out, I’m done for!"

"Who is your brother?" Sun Wei interjected.

Do you think you can address him as Brother Chen?

Xiao Hong’s face immediately turned sullen and he said, "Well then, Big Brother Chen, Grandpa Chen, it’s all fine, just don’t spread this around, I beg you. I’ll follow you like a horse or a dog if you agree."

"Do you think that’s possible?"

Chen Fan looked at him like he was an idiot and asked, "If my strength was less than yours, and I begged you to let me go, would you listen and let me go?"

"This..."

Xiao Hong instantly looked like a rooster with its throat grabbed, and after a while, he said quietly, "I admit, I wouldn’t let you go, but I wouldn’t harm you either, would I?"

"So, you’re saying I should be grateful that you’ve made me an alchemy tool?" Chen Fan nearly laughed out of anger.

"No, it’s not, I..."

"Enough, I don’t have the patience for your nonsense here."

He interrupted Xiao Hong, who wanted to say something more, and frowned, "In a moment, I’ll take you to see Chairman Chang. You’ll repeat everything you just told me, word for word."

"What! Chairman Chang?"

Xiao Hong’s face went completely pale.

"Grandpa Chen, Grandpa Chen, please, let me go!"

He cried out, "I know my mistake, I really know my mistake. As long as you pretend nothing happened, from now on, I’ll do whatever you ask without a single complaint."

It was conceivable that once this matter got out.

The people in the association would talk about him behind his back.

How would he ever show his face again?

This was worse than killing him ten or a hundred times!

Of course, headquarters wouldn’t kill him over this matter, after all, he was the most likely candidate to break through to the True Essence Realm next.

"Must I resort to certain methods before you’ll obediently cooperate?"

A flash of killing intent appeared in Chen Fan’s eyes.

All of Xiao Hong’s hair stood on end, and his heart skipped a beat.

It felt like the one standing before him was not a person, but an incredibly terrifying beast.

"This is the last time I’m saying this."

Chen Fan extended a finger and said coldly, "I’m not asking for your opinion; I’m telling you to follow my orders obediently. If you don’t agree, I don’t mind letting you taste the feeling of an unbearable itch all over your body that you can’t scratch with your hands, making life worse than death."

Hearing this, Sun Wei swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"I, I..."

"Hmm?"

"I agree, I agree, isn’t that enough?" Xiao Hong had no other choice and pleaded, "Grandpa Chen, if I do this, it will offend Ling Yu completely, and he definitely won’t let me off easily."

"And what does that have to do with me?"

Chen Fan’s eyes showed intense coldness, what he needed to understand now was how this guy named Ling Yu knew he could refine top-grade True Qi Pills.

Was it really just Ling Yu’s own idea to send this guy, with no connection to others?

He still harbored doubts about people like Chairman Chang.

Given his current strength, even if he couldn’t compete with headquarters, he had the confidence to challenge them, especially since the others had already come to his doorstep.

If he didn’t respond, it would only make the mastermind behind the scenes more blatant!

So, no matter who it was, if they dared stretch a hand at him, they must be prepared to have their entire arm chopped off!

Under the puzzled gazes of some nearby martial artists, Chen Fan dragged the immobile Xiao Hong to the meeting room.

Besides this, Sun Wei was also present.

He licked his lips, feeling extremely anxious inside.

Chen Fan took out his phone and dialed Chairman Chang’s number.

It barely rang twice before it was answered, with Chairman Chang’s delighted voice coming through.

"What’s up, little brother Chen? Do you have some good pill formula to sell to headquarters again? Don’t worry about the price, as long as you have it, headquarters wants it."

Chairman Chang sat in his chair, smiling.

"Chairman Chang, is it convenient for you right now?" Chen Fan’s voice was calm.

"Yes, it is, what’s the matter?"

Chairman Chang immediately straightened up, even someone as insensitive as him could sense something unusual in Chen Fan’s tone.

His heart jumped to his throat.

What’s going on? Could headquarters have done something to displease Brother Chen?
