Super War God in the City

Tianyun Group Headquarters.

Ling Fan got out of the taxi, looked up at the towering skyscraper in front of him, and felt a surge of emotion; he was finally back.

He walked straight into the lobby, where the receptionists, Lu Xiaomei and Zhao Xinxin, caught his eye.

"Is President Xiao upstairs?" Ling Fan approached the women and greeted them with a smile.

Lu Xiaomei and Zhao Xinxin were slightly taken aback—it had been a long time since they had seen Ling Fan at the company. Now, Vice Minister Ling's reputation within the group was resounding, even outshining Chairman Xiao Chubing.

"It's Vice Minister Ling; we haven't seen you in such a long time. The chairman seems to have gone on a business trip recently!" Lu Xiaomei said with a hint of excitement.

Nowadays, being able to converse or establish a connection with Ling Fan at the company was indeed a matter of great pride.

Although they were just receptionists, their association with Ling Fan earned them a certain degree of respect in the company—even middle managers had to give them some face.

"Minister Ling, Secretary Chen is upstairs; do you want me to inform her to come down to receive you?" Zhao Xinxin offered eagerly as she picked up the phone.

"On a business trip?" Ling Fan muttered under his breath with a slight sense of loss.

"No need, I'll go up by myself. You two have worked hard. The company will find suitable positions for you both to be promoted to; you've been here for long enough, you can't be receptionists forever. You need to be ambitious!" Ling Fan said with a smile, giving them a bit of advice.

The two of them pondered his words. Although Xiao Chubing had intentions to promote them before, they were content with their current roles and had not acted on it. Now, spurred by Ling Fan's advice, they began to seriously consider it.

"Thank you, Minister Ling, for your concern; we'll remember what you said!" Lu Xiaomei and Zhao Xinxin nodded their thanks.

Ling Fan greeted them and stepped into the elevator, heading straight for the president's office upstairs.

At the entrance of Tianyun, a jeep rolled down its window, and a man looked up at the already closed gate's figure, murmuring, "Tianyun?"

President's office on the top floor.

Ling Fan made his way unobstructed. It couldn't be helped—although he hadn't been at the company for over half a month, no one in the entire company dared to forget this impressive deputy head of the security department, whose photo was hung prominently in the staff section of the security department.

The incident that happened in the lobby half a month ago had already spread throughout the company. Nowadays, the security department had become the largest department in the entire group, and even the single security guards saw their value doubled, with many women in the company setting their sights on them!

Ling Fan walked around the various offices on the floor, but didn't see any important people.

"Can it be, there's no one here?" Ling Fan wondered.

Just then, Chen Ling, with files in her arms, hurried out of a nearby office.

Seeing her, Ling Fan's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Secretary Chen, just you? Where is everyone else?"

Chen Ling, startled by the sudden greeting—since the top floor office area was not a place anyone could casually enter—was about to scold the security department for negligence when she realized it was Ling Fan, whom she hadn't seen for many days.

"Young Master Ling? When did you come back?" Chen Ling's eyes widened, almost disbelieving her own sight.

"Heh, just got back. I wanted to surprise everyone, but it seems only you got to see the surprise!" Ling Fan teased.

Seeing Chen Ling's astonished face, he couldn't help but playfully add, "Cough cough, long time no see, shouldn't you be calling me 'Dad' now?"

Chen Ling stared with her beautiful big eyes, "..."

In the office.

Chen Ling made Ling Fan a cup of tea, and as she thought about Ling Fan's teasing, her cheeks flushed. Although it had just been a joke and she hadn't called him that, something about it still felt odd to her.

"Could Young Master Ling have that kind of preference?" Chen Ling glanced at Ling Fan out of the corner of her eye, internally muttering to herself.

"Right, I heard Chu Bing was out on a business trip, just you alone?" Ling Fan took a sip of tea, asking leisurely.

Upon hearing Ling Fan's words, Chen Ling quickly composed herself, "President Xiao took Xia Ying, Yu Qiong, Shu Ya, and the others to Central Sea for an inspection!"

"Oh, a new project?" Ling Fan was a bit curious.

"Yes, President Xiao plans to venture into the internet technology field. The future of e-commerce ecosystems presents an opportunity; the prosperity in the entertainment industry is just an illusion presented by capital competition.

As President Xiao said, we shouldn't put all our eggs in one basket; Tianyun's future pillar industries cannot rely solely on entertainment!" Chen Ling explained.

Ling Fan nodded, looking at Xiao Chubing with newfound respect, "Hmm, well said. What about the others?"

"Today is an unprecedented grand ceremony in the entertainment industry; it is the grand day of the Xinghua Banquet. Li Mengying, leading her two sisters An Xixue, is participating in the performance. However, some unpleasantness occurred yesterday, so President Yun, worried, personally went to the scene with Qian Dayong and others," Chen Ling explained, a touch of worry sweeping across her face.

Upon hearing this, Ling Fan immediately frowned and said sternly, "What happened? Explain it to me clearly!"

Chen Ling did not dare to conceal anything and immediately recounted everything she knew.

"Slam!"

After hearing everything, Ling Fan fiercely slammed the table, his face stern as he coldly said, "Damn, when the tiger is not home, the monkey calls himself king. To dare to insult my Tianyun's people is simply asking for trouble!"

Chen Ling was startled and stood silently to one side, knowing that Ling Fan was angry. This was Ling Fan's charm; he would never allow those around him to be bullied. Anyone he cared about who suffered the slightest grievance would be avenged tenfold or hundredfold.

"Put aside your work for now, or hand it over to someone else. Take me to Moonlight Coast; I want to see who dares to trouble my Tianyun!" Ling Fan snorted coldly, spoke indifferently.

...

Leng Chuan arrived at Moonlight Coast, where someone was already waiting to meet him in advance.

"Young Master Leng, you really came at a more fortuitous time rather than earlier, there's a good show going on inside!" a young man about Leng Chuan's age joked.

"Oh? What kind of show, some special performance?" Leng Chuan chuckled strangely.

"Haha, much more interesting than a special performance, just go inside and see!" the young man chuckled.

"That's something I must enjoy thoroughly. By the way, I have a favor to ask Brother Yuan," Leng Chuan remembered the incident on the plane, his expression immediately turning grim.

"Oh? Stop joking, what can I do if Young Master Leng can't handle it?" the young man smiled bitterly.

"No, no, this fellow is from your martial artist lineage, ordinary practitioners are no match, so I had to ask Brother Yuan for help, I will surely not let you down!" Leng Chuan sincerely said.

To deal with someone like Ling Fan, a martial artist, he couldn't think of any better help than his friends from the Martial Association.

And this young man in front of him, named Yuan Shang, was a member of Binzhou's top Martial Association. If he could lend a hand, it would surely be a done deal, easy as pie!

Yuan Shang nodded slightly, his expression slightly solemn, "What exactly happened, Young Master Leng? Could you tell me more!"

He was not a reckless person; recent events had taught him that there were always bigger fish. One must never be careless. Though they were friends, offering help had to be within his capabilities.

Leng Chuan felt somewhat embarrassed and picked through the incident on the plane, recounting it once more.

"Haha, so Young Master Leng was cut off at the pass, someone dared to steal the woman you fancied!" Yuan Shang laughed heartily.

Leng Chuan's cheeks heated up, feeling unusually embarrassed, his face stern as he said, "Don't just make fun, Brother Yuan, can you help or not?"

Yuan Shang curbed his smile, if he couldn't help, he wouldn't have been teasing. Teasing would only add to the other's burden. Stay connected through empire

"Don't worry, I thought it was some formidable character, just someone who can crush a porcelain cup by hand, turn it into sand in the palm? This kind of person, I could beat ten with one hand, leave it to me!" Yuan Shang smiled confidently, thumping his chest and guaranteeing help.
