Left with no other option, he turned his gaze to the two of them and asked:
"Now that things have developed to this point, do you two know any other highly skilled martial artists?"
Zhang Xu gently shook his head and replied in a low voice:
"I'm really sorry, but I don't have any experts I know who I can ask for help right now."
Ma Kun, standing to the side, spoke with a solemn expression:
"Boss, you need to make the necessary preparations in advance. We plan to leave once the master's injuries have improved slightly."
Upon hearing this, Jimmy's eyes widened, and he asked in astonishment:
"You're actually leaving? That won't do!"
Ma Kun nodded silently and explained:
"My master had many enemies in the past. If those enemies learn that my master is seriously injured and has lost all his power, they will probably come to take revenge soon."
After all, over the years, his master, a martial artist, had experienced countless fierce battles and defeated countless opponents.
Now that my master is a cripple, I dare not harbor any illusions that no one will come to cause trouble.
Therefore, the only way to ensure safety is to quickly leave this place and flee to another land.
After hearing these words, Jimmy felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was instantly stunned.
He murmured to himself:
"What...what should we do?!"
Meanwhile, after returning home, Du Guanghe first took out a large sum of money and gave it to Tingting, instructing her to immediately board a ship and leave Hong Kong for distant Indonesia to seek refuge.
Two days later, He Yuzhu escorted another batch of goods to Jimmy Trading Company.
After the handover was completed smoothly, he was about to leave when he unexpectedly saw Sally in the office.
Actually, He Yuzhu had met Selena before, and they were somewhat acquainted, so he asked her:
"Where is Mr. Jimmy?" Sally replied with a smile.
"He has gone out on business, so I will temporarily take charge of the business here."
Hearing this, He Yuzhu nodded in understanding.
After all, it's common for big bosses like Jimmy to be very busy on a daily basis.
Moreover, he knew perfectly well that Jimmy was probably busy searching for a suitable martial artist right now.
You must know that martial artists at the Transcendent Realm are the best of the best, and recruiting them is no easy task.
As is customary, He Yuzhu ordered another large quantity of goods from Sai Li.
While waiting to process their orders, the two naturally started chatting.
Time flies, and before we know it, it's time to enjoy the wonderful moment of afternoon tea.
He Yuzhu warmly extended an invitation to Selena:
"How about we go for afternoon tea together?"
Sally chuckled softly and replied, "Haha, let me invite you."
However, He Yuzhu quickly waved his hand and said:
"How can that be? I have to treat you! Also, I have another request. I hope you can provide me with more parts, because I plan to further expand production."
Sally readily nodded in agreement:
"No problem, I'll take care of it."
Seeing that Sally agreed so readily, He Yuzhu was overjoyed and quickly added:
"That's great! I'll go find a seat now and call you as soon as I've reserved one."
After saying that, he hurriedly left the office and headed straight for a nearby restaurant.
Not long after, He Yuzhu successfully booked his ideal table at a restaurant with an elegant environment and a warm atmosphere.
He then immediately called Sally to tell her his exact location.
About ten minutes later, Sally appeared at the restaurant entrance, dressed in a brand-new, bright dress, like a graceful fairy.
Her appearance instantly attracted a lot of attention, while He Yuzhu had already stood up to greet her, his face beaming with a joyful smile...
The two sat at the tea table, leisurely savoring the fragrant tea. The aroma wafted through the air, creating a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
Before long, the topic naturally shifted to matters related to martial arts.
At this moment, Sally frowned slightly and said with a hint of worry in her voice:
"The martial artist who was responsible for protecting our business has unfortunately been injured, and now the business's security is somewhat lacking."
She sighed softly, a hint of anxiety in her eyes.
Upon hearing this news, He Yuzhu's heart tightened, and he quickly asked:
"What should we do? This is no small matter!"
Sally quickly comforted him:
"Don't worry, we are already working hard to find new people to fill the vacancies."
He Yuzhu breathed a slight sigh of relief, but still couldn't help asking a few more questions, wanting to confirm whether the other party had any doubts about the matter or noticed anything unusual.
After receiving a positive reply, he finally felt relieved.
As the days passed and everyone waited anxiously, Jimmy finally returned home one morning a few days later, looking travel-worn.
Accompanying him was a burly, cold-faced bodyguard.
However, after making some secret inquiries, He Yuzhu learned that the new bodyguard was merely a martial artist with the strength of internal energy, far from reaching the level of a master of the Transcendent Realm.
As night falls, the lights are on.
He Yuzhu was alone in the room when he took out his phone and dialed Pan Qun's number.
Pan Qun's calm voice quickly came from the other end of the phone:
"Hello, is this Yuzhu?"
He Yuzhu lowered his voice and told Pan Qun about the recent events in detail, then asked:
"They took care of the opponent so quickly, they shouldn't have revealed any weaknesses, right?"
After a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, Pan Qun replied:
"So far, everything is going smoothly. As far as I know, they still believe that the incident was just an accident."
Hearing this, He Yuzhu finally felt a huge weight lifted from his heart, and he let out a long sigh of relief, saying:
"That's good. You've really worked hard this time."
Pan Qun laughed heartily:
"Haha, we're all just doing this for work, no need to be so polite."
Thus, the problem that had plagued the newspaper for so long was finally completely solved.
However, He Yuzhu still cannot return to his hometown immediately.
Because the Canton Fair was next, and afterwards he would meet with top leaders to discuss even more important matters...
However, in this brief moment, He Yuzhu felt exceptionally relaxed and at ease.
After all, his two companies were operating well at the time, and all production and business activities were proceeding in an orderly manner.
Of the more than 20 planned buildings, only a few have broken ground so far, and all of these projects have been handed over to professional third-party construction companies for management.
Every morning, before the first rays of dawn break through the sky, He Yuzhu gets up early, faces the cool morning breeze, and heads towards the mountains not far away to begin his daily martial arts practice.
It's worth noting that in the bustling city of Hong Kong, there are very few green belts along the roads. However, what is delightful is that the surrounding mountains are carefully adorned with lush greenery, and towering trees can be seen everywhere.
Although He Yuzhu has long since entered the Dan Jin realm, he still maintains the good habit of getting up early every day to practice boxing.
Because practicing martial arts at home would be inconvenient in many ways, he often chose to quietly go to the green mountain not far from his residence before dawn, before the night had completely faded.
Since successfully entering the realm of Embracing the Core, He Yuzhu's physical body has been able to withstand bullets, and his strength can reach a thousand catties. He can leap across a distance of twenty steps in one bound!
As his skills became more and more refined, He Yuzhu began to explore and comprehend some new and wonderful abilities.
Just then, on the distant eastern horizon, a golden sun slowly rose, instantly bursting forth with countless rays of light, illuminating the entire world with dazzling brilliance.
In that instant of dazzling light, He Yuzhu suddenly opened his mouth, and a white stream of air, like a bolt of lightning, suddenly shot out, accompanied by a piercing, sharp sound as it tore through the air, and with the force of thunder, it shot straight toward the trunk of a thick locust tree several meters away.
On the trunk of that incredibly thick tree, there was a hole as big as a bowl!
This hole is more than half a foot deep! And this amazing masterpiece is a brand new method of fighting the enemy that He Yuzhu has been painstakingly researching recently.
He was able to condense a powerful surge of energy within his body into a pure white ribbon, which then gushed out of his mouth with astonishing force.
Although this technique has not yet been used in actual combat, its power is already astonishing when faced with trees as hard as iron. Even such sturdy trees cannot withstand its impact. If this force were to strike an enemy's body directly, it would probably cause a terrible result of being pierced through instantly.
Thinking of this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but feel secretly alarmed.
At this moment, he was slowly withdrawing his cultivation technique, and his aura gradually returned to calm.
If anyone else were present at that moment, they would surely be surprised to find that his eyes, which were originally as deep as the sea, were now sparkling with a dazzling and bright light.
