Chapter 1429
Feeling the determination in Chen Dong’s words.
Gu Qingying was worried and lightly raised her jade hand, pressing down on Chen Dong’s right hand that was placed on her stomach.
“Husband, what exactly are you plotting? Why do I feel so scared?”
“Nothing.”
Chen Dong shrugged his shoulders and smiled gently, “It’s just a normal business operation, I didn’t tell you in advance because I was worried that it would leak out and affect the whole situation.”
“That’s all?”
Gu Qingying stared closely at Chen Dong’s eyes, as if she wanted to find traces in Chen Dong’s eyes.
Chen Dong met Gu Qingying’s gaze, but his heart was thumping faster.
He knew that a single glance from his own eyes might be discerned by Gu Qingying.
There have been times when Gu Qingying has seen that he was lying from the smallest details.
But this time …… he had to make Gu Qingying believe it!
The room was quiet enough to listen to a needle.
The four eyes were facing each other.
It lasted for almost a minute before Gu Qingying moved her gaze away.
“Okay, believe you.”
She smiled sweetly, “Be good, no matter what, the baby and I will be your strongest backing!”
“Good!”
Chen Dong nodded and gently helped Gu Qingying up, “Oh yes, you still have to go and tell Elder Long and the others that you won’t be going to the company today, public opinion is fermenting and it still needs time, just let Xiao Ma and the others take the lead on all the work.”
“Mmhmm.”
Looking at Gu Qingying walked out of the room.
When the door to the room closed again, Chen Dong’s expression gaped up, his brows lowered.
Quietly, he clenched his fists.
The murmur of determination and firmness echoed through the room.
“You and the baby are not only my strong backbone, they are also the ones I will guard with my life!”
He didn’t want to be like his father!
So he’d been pushing, pushing for a possibility to solve the crisis at hand and give up the only option of leaving his wife and child behind!
And this time, if successful, perhaps ……
Chen Dong did not dare to be certain that the end result would leave Gu Qingying and the child completely safe, but at least if he succeeded, he could postpone the danger to Gu Qingying and the child, as long as possible.
Time was of the essence!
As time pa*sed and the situation became clearer, perhaps the options would become more numerous!
There was a long moment of silence.
Chen Dong took out his mobile phone and fished out Yuan Yigang’s number, his thumb hovering over the phone number but hesitating to drop it.
In the end, Chen Dong put the phone down again.
The fact that his father-in-law and mother-in-law had not been heard from had always stuck in his throat.
The feeling of trepidation and fear grew stronger and stronger as no news came from the Hong Society.
Even though he already had speculations in his mind, he was unwilling to believe until he heard the results for himself.
Now, he could hardly even find the courage to ask Yuan Yigang directly.
Sometimes it is better to have no result than to have a result!
The pressure of all this was like a tarzan on Chen Dong’s shoulders, and he did not dare to talk to anyone, for fear that Gu Qingying would notice something.
As a husband, he did not dare to share this pressure with his wife.
With his mind in a tangle of thoughts, Chen Dong rubbed his face.
“It’s been a while since I’ve exercised, gotta get on with it!”
With that, he got up and walked towards the outside of the room.
The sun was shining brightly.
Chen Dong was naked on the upper half of his body, inches of muscle exposed to the sun.
Each muscle was in a reasonable proportion, stacked all over his body, not appearing huge and thick, but instead forming an extremely special aesthetic with each other.
It was as if it were a sculpture, a natural formation.
But beneath each of these muscles lies a terrifying explosive power that far exceeds what is on display!
As Chen Dong moved his body, his muscles emitted a creaking sound similar to squeezing.
It was a sound that seemed extremely bizarre.
After some activities, Chen Dong entered into a state of exercise.
Even though there were now such supreme treasures as the 72 Heavenly Wolf Martial Dao Bodies inherited in his mind, Chen Dong still did not put down the simple basic exercise movements.
The only thing that determined how high a building could be built was the solidity of the foundation!
The stronger the foundation, the further the martial achievement can go in the future, otherwise, even with a strong heritage, it is just a pavilion in the air.
A martial artist’s combat power is never measured by a single aspect, but by a comprehensive consideration.
Even though Chen Dong has now perceived “qi”, he knows that he can improve his strength not only from perceiving “qi”, but also from other aspects, such as …… muscle control!
Running, push-ups, sit-ups,……, these ordinary and simple movements, after two hours of Chen Dong’s intense perseverance, still made his body covered with a dense layer of sweat beads.
And this is just the beginning for him!
After the basic exercise was over, Chen Dong did not rest, but directly sat down on his knees, and the seventy-two Heavenly Wolf Martial Dao Bodies emerged in his mind as he began to comprehend.
The genetic transformation had placed him among the ranks of geniuses, but if he relied purely on his talent and gave up on his efforts, he might end up being reduced to oblivion.
The obscure experiences he had since childhood had made Chen Dong’s mind far superior compared to those of his peers.
Living life by faith will eventually be played off by life by faith one day!
Such examples abound of those seemingly gifted people he has seen since childhood!
Exercise, enlightenment …… overlapping repetition.
It was boring and tiring, but Chen Dong was happy and immersed in it.
Time pa*sed slowly.
Unknowingly, the stars and moon were in the sky.
Chen Dong opened his eyes once again, and in the darkness, his eyes were instead floating with a dull lustre.
Not an adjective, but a real lustre!
It only appeared for a short time, a flash of light, so fast that even Chen Dong himself did not notice it.
Chen Dong tilted his head to look at the starry sky above his head, “Time is indeed like a white horse pa*sing by when one is fully immersed in exercise.”
He slowly lifted his right hand and flexed his fingers, forming a pose of hollowing out his hand.
With a thought, Qi moved at will, and a swirl of Qi lingered in the palm of his right hand, slowly rotating.
“The use of qi …… also has a hierarchy, muscle control, the use of qi, this should be something I need to strengthen in my current realm, and of course …… the state of mind!”
Chen Dong released his right hand, and the lingering qi dissipated.
The Daoist Heart Planting Demon was able to make him as open as a hang-up, with his battle power skyrocketing in a short period of time.
Although the backlash effect of such a martial taboo on him was very minimal, it existed after all.
If too many times, the accumulation would be enough to make him really unable to resist the backlash of the Dao Heart Demon.
It was the state of mind that was the key to his resistance to the Dao Heart Seeding Demon!
Only an increase in his heart realm would allow him to perform more Dao Heart Seeding Demons without being revolted.
By preference, the state of mind was also the most difficult to improve in Chen Dong’s opinion!
“Husband, it’s time for dinner!”
Gu Qingying’s voice came from behind him.
Chen Dong got up and picked up the blouse on the side to wipe the sweat stains on his body, while smiling as he walked towards the villa.
“It’s been a whole day, why have you made yourself so tired?”
Seeing Chen Dong covered in sweat, Gu Qingying was heartbroken for a while and snapped at him.
Chen Dong smiled but did not say anything.
If he hadn’t met his father in the ruins of the Ancient City of Wind and Waves in the north of the desert and heard those words from him.
He might have really shelved his martial arts cultivation for the time being under the high pressure of this bout.
But the world’s giants, the giants are all competing for the world’s resources and are secretly carrying out genetic modification ……
The implications of this make Chen Dong think carefully.
Chapter 1430
The storm of public opinion continues to fester.
For seven whole days.
There was a lot of talk among the people.
The major giants and giants were also anxious, and the hearts of the people were in turmoil.
During these seven days, Chen Dong did not go out of his house, staying at home.
Every day was spent with Gu Qingying and training.
The days were very uneventful, but very warm.
He ignored all the rumours and curses from the outside world.
The two parties, Zhou Zunlong and Zhou Yanqiu, he also instructed not to explain to the outside world, and not to reveal half a cent, the news broke out, the sale of land will be sold, everything is strictly in accordance with the plan.
By the seventh day.
Zhou Zunlong and Zhou Yanqiu were nearing the end of the auction, and the rumours were getting more and more rampant among the people.
Mouths and swords were pointed at Chen Dong!
Amongst them, perhaps the people were speculating, or perhaps someone was also secretly manipulating.
It was late that evening.
Instead of training, Chen Dong rushed to the vegetable market with Gu Qingying before dinner.
It had been a long, long time since he had lived such a simple and uneventful life.
At one time, all he wanted was three meals a day and peace for his family.
It was only an unfortunate marriage that changed everything and changed his destiny completely.
The food market is noisy and the air is still filled with all sorts of smells.
It was the last stop before the night fell and the crowds returned home.
After getting off the bus.
Gu Qing Ying wrinkled her nose, her pregnancy in her body made her a little sick to her stomach at the smell in the air.
“Is everything alright?”
Chen Dong a*sisted Gu Qingying.
Gu Qingying shook her head and said with some surprise, “Why do you suddenly want to go to the market?”
Chen Dong helped Gu Qingying to walk inside, while saying, “There are times to stop and times to rush, a brief return to the ordinary is to be able to see yourself more clearly, and also to see the beauty of this earth.”
“Divine.”
Gu Qingying spat out.
Chen Dong smiled sarcastically, but said no more.
The two of them seemed like the most ordinary couple, walking hand in hand through the bustling crowd.
The noise entered their ears, but it was not noisy, but more smoky.
It was only soon that a murmur reached their ears, but it was extraordinarily harsh.
“If you ask me, Chen Dong of Dingtai is probably in big trouble this time, that guy climbed up too fast and never fell down. But that son of a B*tch has screwed me, the fish seller, so much so that I’ve been screaming about the transformation of the shantytown in the west of the city.
The words were vulgar and full of resentment.
Chen Dong and Gu Qingying looked at the same time.
A man wearing a leather apron, boots and covered in fish scales was spouting off to the customer buying fish in front of him, his face full of resentment.
Gu Qingying looked furious and was about to go forward to argue.
But Chen Dong raised his hand and pressed her shoulder: “It’s alright, take it easy, we’re here to buy food, not to argue.”
“This kind of investment is a win-lose situation, you can put up with him scolding you like that, but I can’t!”
Gu Qingying was so annoyed that she immediately wanted to take Chen Dong’s hand away.
However, Chen Dong did not let go of his hand and raised his hand to dotingly scratch the bridge of Gu Qingying’s nose: “Why are you still protecting your calf?”
“I’m protecting my husband!”
Gu Qingying was still unrelenting.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Chen Dong hurriedly pulled Gu Qingying towards the inside of the vegetable market, only as he stepped forward, he glanced back at the fish seller’s boss and the corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile.
“Why don’t you let me go up there and theorise?”
After walking some distance, Gu Qingying finally broke away from Chen Dong.
Chen Dong shrugged his shoulders, “It’s a good thing!”
A good thing?
Gu Qingying was stunned.
Being scolded, or a good thing?
Seeing Gu Qingying’s dumbfounded face, Chen Dong smiled oddly and said with his ear attached, “It’s just like speculating in stocks, when all people speculate in stocks, that’s when the stock market turns over!”
Hmm?!
Gu Qingying’s beautiful eyes blossomed with two strands of essence, looking at Chen Dong in amazement, somewhat understanding.
“Let’s go, we want to have a crawfish tonight.”
Chen Dong smiled as he took Gu Qingying’s hand and walked towards the inside of the vegetable market, “Crawfish on wine, the more you drink the more you have, there is a good show tonight.”
The large vegetable market, some purchases, Chen Dong and Gu Qingying more than once heard the people within the market discussing Chen Dong.
There are curses, there are complaints, there are also lamentations of regret ……
The people are all different.
But Chen Dong was always bland about it, and Gu Qingying became slightly calmer after being mentioned by Chen Dong.
After buying the food, Chen Dong and Gu Qingying returned to Tianmen Mountain Villa.
After entering the house.
Chen Dong then handed over all the vegetables to Wu Chang, and then walked to the courtyard on his own.
There was still some time before dinner.
He just happened to take this time to train a little more.
When he had first left Xiong Nu, he had relied on the Nine Heavens Surprising Dragon Technique created by Chen Daogun to forcefully memorise the Heavenly Wolf Martial Dao Body, but he had only been able to forcefully memorise such a supreme heritage.
It would take time to comprehend it!
And he didn’t just follow the route of the Nine Heavens Frightening Dragon Technique to enlightenment, he …… had to go his own way!
The only thing that he is doing is following the path of the Nine Heavens Frightening Dragon Technique, following the path of Chen Daojun’s perceptions!
The stars and moon were in the sky.
The courtyard was brightly illuminated by lights.
Only the dense forest of formations in the back garden, not far away, appeared dark and secluded.
Chen Dong sat cross-legged on the turf, his hands naturally dropping to his knees, eyes closed and tranquil, the inheritance of the Heavenly Wolf Martial Dao Body floating in his mind.
Soon, he entered a state of enlightenment.
As his enlightenment progressed, a thin Qi energy, unbeknownst to Chen Dong, swept up from beneath him and wrapped around his body.
The qi is so weak that if you don’t look closely, you won’t even notice it.
But …… with the arrival of an uninvited guest, it was finally noticed!
“Hm?!”
With a lost face, Jiang Qilin jumped over the wall into the courtyard, and as soon as he landed, he noticed a hint of something different, and a startled eek came out of his mouth and nose.
He had gone to Kyoto to look for Chu Reed, but when he arrived, he realised that Chu Reed had not yet returned.
Having no choice, Jiang Qilin could only brazenly run to Chen Dong’s place.
“Mr. Chen is cultivating?”
Jiang Qilin looked in astonishment at Chen Dong who was sitting cross-legged in the distance.
With the light, his pupils suddenly tightened and he suddenly noticed the weak Qi surrounding Chen Dong’s body.
“How could Mr. Chen have such a martial heritage?”
For a moment, Jiang Qilin felt his heart being hammered hard as he said in horror, “It shouldn’t be, the Chen family is not a lineage clan and does not have this kind of heritage that my Jiang family has, there is no way they could have this kind of martial heritage, otherwise the Chen family would not be secretly carrying out the Pan Gu plan.”
Horrified and puzzled at the time.
“Ow-ho!”
A deafening beast roar suddenly broke the calmness within the villa.
The beastly roar of the snowy lion rose up to the sky.
It also caused Chen Dong, who was meditating in the courtyard, to suddenly open his eyes.
Almost at the same time, Chen Dong jerked his head around and instantly locked onto Jiang Qilin, his brows immediately furrowed.
“Do not enter unless invited, Mr. Jiang …… You, the titular Jiang family, also have the habit of slipping the wall beam?”
The voice was clear and cold, unconcealed ridicule.
