Beautiful CEO's Super Expert

"Tang Gang, you are doing all this just for me?"

"Exactly, aside from His Highness the Demon King, who else is worth such elaborate scheming?"

Tang Gang smiled smugly.

The palace and the cave were actually discovered by one of his subordinates who, having completed a task, had gotten lost and chanced upon them, rather than being found by that explorer.

He simply used the explorer's column to release a piece of false news.

He knew that once many countries learned of this news, they wouldn't be able to deploy their armies, but instead would send some powerful individuals to carry out the task.

And he was also aware that Su Chen had once been the Chief Instructor in a special military unit in Huaxia.

Therefore, as long as Su Chen was in Huaxia, there was a great chance that Huaxia Country would dispatch him for this top-priority mission.

Indeed, everything had gone as he had predicted—he came!

However, to his surprise, Su Chen had reached the Qi Refinement Peak realm. During their earlier confrontation in front of the palace, he had also been hiding in the shadows, watching.

This made Tang Gang even more uneasy. If he didn't eliminate this monster soon, the one likely to die after some time could very well be himself!

"Since I'm here, let the little girl go. She has nothing to do with this."

Su Chen looked into Tang Gang's eyes and said.

"Su Chen, don't be so naive,"

Tang Gang had also switched his address and smiled, "You should know me. I'm someone who will never complain about having too many tricks up my sleeve. Since you care so much about her, I have even less reason to let her go."

"You truly are a despicable fellow. I only hate myself for being blind enough to trust you!"

"Su Chen, have you ever trusted me as you have trusted the Demon, the Clown, and the others?"

A trace of bitter resentment appeared on Tang Gang's face.

"That's because you're not trustworthy, and in fact, you've proven this yourself,"

Su Chen scoffed.

"Enough, I don't have time to waste words with you. Today, you'll leave your life here!"

A shade of humiliated anger flashed over Tang Gang's face as he spat out.

"These must be the third generation Gene Modifiers you've recently developed,"

Su Chen remarked, eyeing the people by Tang Gang's side.

Though his tone was casual, his heart was somewhat heavy. The third generation Gene Modifiers had ultimately been developed!

"Keen vision, you must surely have a rough idea of their capabilities. Today, you will taste the bitter fruit of your own creation!"

Tang Gang was someone who never risked himself, so as soon as he finished speaking, he had already retreated to the rear, taking Joanna under his control.

The Gene Modifiers immediately charged forward without expression, thumping the ground resoundingly—their momentum frightening!

"These men are tough, stay here!"

Su Chen commanded and then charged into their midst.

How could the others stand by and watch Su Chen fight alone? They too charged forward.

But they quickly realized a problem—their punches landed on the opponents, who would quickly recover and rejoin the fight.

Therefore, they all drew their daggers, but to their astonishment, the blood that flowed from the enemies' flesh was green, and the wounds healed in merely a few dozen seconds!

"What in the world are these things?!"

Lu Zheng shouted angrily, for these people seemed to be as unkillable as cockroaches!

Su Chen was fighting while observing the situation as well.

But the more he observed, the more alarmed he became. This third generation was on an entirely different level from the second!

There was no need to mention the formidable strength of their bodies; the speed of their wound healing had also increased. While the second generation needed a minute or two to heal, now it only took a few dozen seconds.

Furthermore, the acupoints of these third-generation Gene Modifiers were either altered or had vanished; pressing on them elicited no response whatsoever.

What's more, the strength of these Modifiers had vastly surpassed their predecessors. Last time, Joker dealt with four of them with ease, but now it took two or three of them to firmly entangle someone at the Qi Refinement Peak.

Thus, it wasn't long before the others were suppressed by these Gene Modifiers, finding themselves in grave danger.

Upon seeing this, Su Chen decided not to play along anymore, drew his dagger, and with a flash of silver light, a Modifier's head tumbled to the ground!

No matter how formidable these Gene Modifiers were, without their heads, they were dead for good.

First, Su Chen rushed to aid those in the most peril. To him, the strength of these Gene Modifiers, though beyond his initial expectations, was still insufficient.

With a few "swish swish" sounds, several more fine heads rolled off!

Tang Gang, who was watching from behind, went pale at the sight!

"This isn't Qi Refinement Peak at all! Has this madman recovered his previous strength?"

Tang Gang couldn't help but think, and if that were true, wouldn't he himself be in danger?

Because he knew better than anyone that if Su Chen had returned to his former Realm, these Gene Modifiers were nothing but decorations unless there were hundreds or even thousands of them!

Yet, although Gene Modifiers could be mass-produced, only a hundred or two could be made per year!

"Keep the target pinned down for me!"

Tang Gang shouted, then ran frantically toward a speedboat by the seaside, not even bothering with Joanna.

After all, bringing her along would surely slow down his escape!

Tang Gang was always someone who kept his escape routes open, so he had prepared the speedboat by the sea quite early.

Upon Tang Gang's command, all the Gene Modifiers surged towards Su Chen, ignoring the others!

The others indeed wanted to chase Tang Gang, but they simply couldn't keep up, because by now Tang Gang had also reached the Qi Refinement Peak Realm!

Thus, they had no choice but to first rescue Joanna, only to find her as if under a spell, completely unresponsive!

Entangled by so many Gene Modifiers all at once, Su Chen struggled a bit and took a few minutes to dispose of them.

By that time, Tang Gang had already sped away in the speedboat, and pursuing him was no longer an option...

"One day, I will personally flatten your Skull Society!"

Watching Tang Gang's retreating figure, Su Chen vowed silently...

After that, Su Chen turned around to check on Joanna and found out she was just paralyzed by the nerve toxin, which wasn't a huge issue, presumably a method used by Tang Gang to control her more conveniently.

With a bit of treatment from Su Chen, she was soon all right!

.....

Shortly afterward, Su Chen and his companions said their farewells to Joanna and others, preparing to return to their respective countries.

"Mr. Su, you are welcome to visit our Yi Country whenever you have time,"

Joanna said shyly.

"Yes, you could come to visit me and my sister at our place,"

Joanna was bursting with excitement as well.

"Sure, I will definitely visit if I get the chance,"

Responded Su Chen with a smile.

"I'll remember what you said,"

Joanna gave Su Chen a meaningful glance,

"I'll be waiting for you."

Then, her face reddened, and she immediately turned and walked towards her own ship.

Meanwhile, Su Chen and his companions boarded their own vessel, preparing to return to Huaxia...
