But the other party summoned thousands of flying swords in one breath, killing more than 200,000 Fierce Beasts without a trace. What the hell is going on?

Moreover, according to the guard, it seemed that from beginning to end, it was Li Ping alone who was making a move? But didn't Chairman Han say that this Chairman Li had a few helpers?

"Everyone, the Awakened Association has arrived, I can only take you this far." The guard suddenly stopped walking and apologized with a smile.

After all, he was just an ordinary Martial Artist and wouldn't usually dare to get close to this place.

"Alright, thank you for your hard work."

Qin Jin smiled politely at him and then led the group forward.

If his guess was correct, someone would be looking for them as soon as they entered the door.

And that was indeed the case.

As soon as they entered the hall, a man walked up to them, "Excuse me, are you here to see our Chairman Li?"

"That's right."

Qin Jin replied.

"Alright, please follow me."

The man led them to an office and knocked on the door.

"Chairman, the people have arrived."

"Good."

A stranger's voice came from inside.

Qin Jin and the others exchanged glances.

This voice didn't sound like Chairman Li's. Despite Chairman Li being a man of few words, their impression couldn't be that far off.

Could it be that this person had brought them to the wrong place?

"Click."

With a soft sound, Hua Jun appeared before them.

"You may leave now," he said to the man, then turned to Qin Jin and the others with a smile, "Please come in and let's talk."

The others' eyes all fell on Qin Jin.

"Alright."

Qin Jin hesitated for a moment before nodding and walking inside.

On the coffee table, six teacups were already set, clearly indicating that the other party knew they were coming.

Seeing this, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed they had not been brought to the wrong place, and Chairman Li's earlier words were true. Something urgent must have happened in Anshan City.

"Please have a seat."

Hua Jun smiled as he poured water into their cups, "I am Hua Jun, the Vice Chairman of the Anshan City Awakened Association. The Chairman had to handle some urgent matters, so he entrusted me with hosting you. I hope you don't mind."

"How could we mind that?"

Qin Jin smiled slightly, "Chairman Li had already briefed us on the road. Speaking of which, we are the ones lacking in skill and couldn't keep up with the Chairman. By the way, do you know what urgent matter Chairman Li is dealing with? Would it be convenient to tell us? We came all the way from Juque City to aid Chairman Li in defending Anshan City."

"What?"

Hua Jun was taken aback and glanced at them, "You came from Juque City?"

Juque City was a major city, a place that many longed to go to, including Awakeners.

And these people were Awakeners from Juque City?

Then their strength must be... certainly not just C-level Awakeners, at least B-level, and possibly even some A-level Awakeners among them!

"Of course, we are all B-level Awakeners from Juque City." The green-haired woman said proudly.

"All B-level?"

Hua Jun gasped.

He was right. This group of Awakeners was not weak. Any one of them could serve as the City Lord in a small city.

And he, being a C-level Awakener with unremarkable combat power, felt an immense pressure.

"Don't be nervous."

Qin Jin saw through his thoughts and smiled, "It seems Chairman Li left in a hurry and didn't explain much about us to you. But you don't need to overthink. Just treat us as comrades. Besides, if anyone feels the pressure, it should be Chairman Li."

"Well, he's actually quite easy to get along with," Hua Jun said with a wry smile, "He may be taciturn, but he is generous to his subordinates. For example, not long ago, he gave me a Celestial God Fruit worth 50,000 points."

"Is that so?" Qin Jin and the others were surprised.

For them, 50,000 points weren't unattainable.

But to give that many points to someone else was still painful.

However, considering that Chairman Li probably had five or six million points, it made more sense. Typically, even an A-level Awakener would consider owning a million points a remarkable feat.

"Ahem."

Qin Jin cleared his throat, realizing the conversation was deviating, "Chairman Hua, as we mentioned earlier, we are allies with a common goal. So, could you please tell us about Chairman Li's whereabouts?"

"Of course."

Hua Jun quickly said, "The Chairman instructed us to gather information about the situation in nearby cities after the Beast Tide broke out."

"Oh?"

They were surprised but soon nodded one after another.

Chairman Li was indeed farsighted.

Most people would only focus on their own territory, with no attention left for nearby cities.

"And then?" Qin Jin continued to ask.

"Then the Chairman learned that Yu Feng City was under attack by the Beast Tide and that there were several thousand drilling-type Fierce Beasts appearing in the city. He immediately went over."

"Yu Feng City?"

"Yu Feng City is under attack by the Beast Tide?"

"So Chairman Li went to rescue Yu Feng City?"

They were all incredibly shocked.

So, the urgent matter Chairman Li referred to wasn't in Anshan City but in another city?

But wasn't he the Chairman of the Anshan City Awakened Association? He went to save others even at such a time?

"Yes."

Hua Jun took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.

He had a hunch that the Chairman probably went because of those drilling-type Fierce Beasts.

Because earlier that morning, a group of drilling-type Fierce Beasts had appeared in the city, causing a lot of panic despite no casualties.

These drilling-type Fierce Beasts clearly didn't appear out of thin air but likely came from elsewhere.

The Chairman went to Yu Feng City probably to eliminate these creatures and prevent them from invading Anshan City after overrunning Yu Feng City.

But even if the Chairman only killed those drilling-type Fierce Beasts without dealing with other beasts, it would still significantly relieve Yu Feng City's situation.

From his understanding of the Chairman, the latter would likely go above and beyond to help.

"Chairman Li..."

Qin Jin was at a loss for words.

The rest of the team also fell silent.

Any dissatisfaction they might have had vanished completely.

"Yu Feng City, is it?"

At that moment, Qin Jin made up his mind.

"Chairman Li going alone is dangerous. Since we're here to assist him, we should go help him now."

"The captain is right. Truth be told, I've been looking forward to this Beast Tide all the way here."

"Let's go, Captain. Time is of the essence."

Others in the team also chimed in.

"Chairman Hua, we must take our leave now."

"Wait, Brother Qin, don't be in such a hurry."

Hua Jun panicked and stood up to stop them, "Brother Qin, please wait. The Chairman left a letter for you. You should read it before you go."

"A letter?"

"Chairman Li's letter?"

They were all taken aback.

It did seem like something he would do.

"Where's the letter? Let me see." Qin Jin said eagerly.
