Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 740 - Hidden Dragon Hall
"Thank you!"
Su Chen sincerely said.
He knew that the other's willingness to share with him meant they really treated him as a friend.
"Actually, we all come from an organization called Hidden Dragon Hall."
Yan Xi looked at Su Chen and spoke.
The reason Yan Xi was willing to tell him was that she hoped he would know more and perhaps he wouldn't act as recklessly as today again, potentially bringing trouble upon himself.
For some reason, she didn't want to see Su Chen get hurt.
"Hidden Dragon Hall?"
Su Chen slightly furrowed his brow:
"What is this place?"
"Hidden Dragon Hall is an organization that guards the order of Huaxia, but very few people know of our existence. We are not constrained by any official force, everything is guided by the highest principle of maintaining Huaxia's stability and national interest!"
When Yan Xi mentioned Hidden Dragon Hall, her face involuntarily displayed a trace of pride and self-confidence!
Su Chen was completely taken aback to find that Hidden Dragon Hall, concealed behind the Five Great Families, was such an organization!
However, his first encounter with Hidden Dragon Hall had been with someone as arrogant, heartless, and foolish as Han Cheng, which gave him quite a poor impression of the Hidden Dragon Hall. He even regarded it as a pretense of virtue!
Yan Xi, after all, was a member of Hidden Dragon Hall, so he did not show this view.
"So what exactly is the relationship between Hidden Dragon Hall and the Five Great Families? Why get involved in the affairs of the Five Great Families?"
Su Chen continued to ask.
This was what he truly cared about right now.
As for whether they were pretending to be virtuous, or as Yan Xi said, truly the Guardians of Huaxia, he didn't care.
"Actually, there's not much relation; it's just that the Five Great Families have considerable influence in Huaxia. Should something happen to them, it could affect social stability, and we prioritize maintaining the stability of Huaxia."
Yan Xi explained as she spoke:
"Regarding the Five Great Families, we at Hidden Dragon Hall have a rule; that is, for any internal grudges and disputes among the families, no one from Hidden Dragon Hall may intervene. Only when the Five Great Families face threats from external forces will we take action."
"Because if it's an internal grudge, no matter how intense, it's unlikely to affect the stability of society significantly. But if there's a threat from external forces, it's much more serious and could even lead to destruction, causing more significant social turmoil, which is something we absolutely do not allow to happen!"
After hearing Yan Xi's explanation, Su Chen finally had a rough understanding of the relationship between the Five Great Families and Hidden Dragon Hall.
"Strictly speaking, I am also a member of the Su Family, so it should be an internal matter, right?"
Su Chen asked. He wasn't asking out of fear of this so-called Hidden Dragon Hall, but rather to clarify some matters!
"No, in the eyes of Hidden Dragon Hall, your identity is that of the Nether King, the Hall Master of Nether Temple, so you are considered an external force."
Yan Xi looked at Su Chen and shook her head as she spoke.
"I see!"
Su Chen nodded, finally understanding some of the situation.
No wonder when the great tragedy of the Su Family's main branch occurred, they did not take action, and now they had. It was because of this very rule.
"Actually, we should have intervened to stop what you were doing long ago. Protector Yu even suggested killing you directly, but Uncle Wei said you had made many contributions to Huaxia after all. He said to give you a chance and hoped you would know when to stop."
Yan Xi continued:
"But unexpectedly, not only did you not stop, you actually intensified your actions. So we had no choice but to send someone to give Qin Ming of the Special Security Bureau a message for you, telling you to cease your actions against the Five Great Families."
"Yet you—instead of heeding the warning—you stormed into the Su Family the very next day, putting all the major families on edge. Therefore, Uncle Wei had no choice but to have Han Cheng and me take you in for a strict punishment."
At this, Yan Xi couldn't help but shake her head and let out a bitter laugh.
"Who are this 'Grandpa Wei' and Protector Yu you mentioned?"
Su Chen casually asked.
"Oh, Uncle Wei is our Hidden Dragon Hall's Vice Hall Master, and that Protector Yu is Han Cheng's master. In the Hidden Dragon Hall, there is one Hall Master, one Vice Hall Master, and three Protectors,"
Yan Xi responded without concealing too much.
"Alright, thank you for telling me all this."
Having obtained the basic information he wanted, Su Chen stood up and patted his backside.
"Su Chen, let me advise you, give up. If you continue to be obstinate, the consequences will be very serious,"
Yan Xi also stood up and, looking at Su Chen, urged him:
"If any Protector takes action, no matter how strong you are, you'll definitely have no good end!"
Hearing Yan Xi's words, Su Chen said:
"Please relay a message for me, I hope they won't interfere in the affairs of the Five Great Families. But if they insist on meddling, no matter how strong they are, I will definitely fight them to the death!"
"Su Chen, why are you so stubborn?"
Yan Xi stamped her foot in frustration.
"A gentleman has his principles, things he will and will not do! How can I not seek revenge for such deep-seated hatred!"
Su Chen said firmly:
"Even if it means being shattered to pieces, I wouldn't hesitate!"
Seeing Su Chen's resolute demeanor, Yan Xi felt a mix of helplessness and admiration.
"Then take care of yourself!"
Yan Xi sighed, knowing she couldn't do much else but pray for his safety.
"I will, thank you!"
Su Chen smiled as he spoke.
For those who truly cared about him, like Yan Xi whom he'd recently met, Su Chen was grateful.
Afterward, Su Chen drove Yan Xi to the roadside. Yan Xi hailed a taxi and left, and Su Chen drove to the office.
Returning to the office, Su Chen went to his own office and quietly pondered the information he had gathered from Yan Xi.
Although he didn't ask about the strength of the Hall Master, Vice Hall Master, and Protectors from Yan Xi, he could guess that their strength was undoubtedly formidable, which was evident from Han Cheng.
Despite this, he didn't feel much fear because no matter how strong those people were, he had to face them!
Because he had no other choice!
Just as he had said to Yan Xi, how could he not avenge the great enmity of his grandfather and parents? Otherwise, how could he face living in this world, and how could he stand under the heavens!
If he died, he would have no face to meet his grandfather and parents down below!
Thinking of this, his face gradually showed a hint of determination!
Of course, he wouldn't just sit around waiting for death. As long as he continued to improve his Cultivation Realm, these problems wouldn't be problems anymore!
But the improvement of the Cultivation Realm is a slow accumulation, it isn't something that could be achieved in a day!
So for Su Chen, time was of the essence right now!
No matter what, he at least needed to advance to Qi Refinement Peak as soon as possible, that would give him a slightly better chance...
