Chapter 208: Chapter 201 Hengle’s Gesture of GoodwillBai Yan is smart, always skirting around the edge of this layer of the Abyss, never venturing deep into its belly. At least at the edges, there are many weak, newly born Lower Demons. It’s rare to encounter Level Three Demons; most are Level One or Two, which are easy pickings for Bai Yan. Bai Yan has found that the cumulative effect of devouring mass quantities of Level Two Demons is stronger than consuming a single Level Three Demon! After all, both Level Two and Level Three Demons are Lower Demons. As long as the quantity is sufficient, there’s no need to provoke peers at the cost of injuring Demon Warriors. Cultivate strength quietly, steadfast and methodical, that’s the strategy Bai Yan has always adhered to. The endless battles, not distinguishing between day and night, come to a halt, and Bai Yan feels somewhat weary. That stupid dragon Alec is nowhere to be seen, this time Bai Yan has returned to the Abyss, and it hasn’t made an appearance. Bai Yan can’t be bothered with it; judging that enough time has passed, he directly orders the System to open the gate to the realm, wanting to go back for a rest. Any living being would struggle with the relentless daily battles; no matter how strong, Bai Yan also needs to rest. ... At the An Family Mansion, having returned, the huge and dark gate to the realm vanishes silently behind him. "Xiao Man, step up the purchase of poultry. I need a batch of goods in the short term." Sitting on the floor in front of the French window, Bai Yan sends a message to Li Xiaoman. Then he puts down his phone and snuffs out the cigarette in his hand. There are no more cigarettes left in the pack. Bai Yan’s room is filled with the haze of cigarette smoke, and including the ones smoked before entering the Abyss, he had unwittingly finished an entire pack. Crushing the empty cigarette pack into a ball, he rubs it and casually throws it into the trash bin. Regardless of what lies ahead, he must take it one step at a time, adhering to his principles and true self. Let the storms rage and hardships mount! Let those lofty gods display their so-called righteous and majestic visages! Sooner or later... one day Bai Yan will lead the Demon Army to invade the Divine Kingdom, tear apart the heavens-full of All Gods! Shatter the so-called just Camps! Bai Yan will one day be stained with the Divine Blood of All Gods, bearing witness to his way of the Demon, and shape his true Demon essence! Bai Yan’s eyes are resolute; he will not easily compromise in front of anyone, not even the gods can make him yield! There’s still time. Bai Yan plans to spend a while cultivating the Martial Arts Nine Realms Secret Method. At that moment. "Cough cough... uh, I’m choking." A delicate female voice emerges from the doorway of Bai Yan’s room. It’s An Xiaowan’s voice. The silly girl pushes open the door, wearing a cute pink pajamas with a sheep pattern, stepping into Bai Yan’s room. She covers her petite nose, her willow brows slightly furrowed, her sparkling big eyes filled with grievance, like a confused little hamster. Cute, innocent, yearning for her owner’s affection. "Xiao Wan? Haven’t you gone to bed already?" Sёarch* The nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Bai Yan is startled, his face which was originally stern and determined softens, and he smiles as he stands up and turns around to walk over. "I can’t sleep." An Xiaowan lowers her little head, and with eyes brimming with grievances, looks at Bai Yan: "Brother Yan, why did you ignore me and just drive away today?" Bai Yan is taken aback. He just remembered that indeed because of the pressure from Dragon Shadow and the secret of his parents’ death, he had left the An Family Mansion in a sulky mood earlier today. He didn’t expect this silly girl to still be dwelling on that matter. "Brother Yan, do you not like Xiao Wan anymore..." An Xiaowan couldn’t help it anymore, her lips turned downward, and she began to sob quietly. An Xiaowan’s voice is fragile and heart-wrenching: "Sister said to not bother you, the bad guy... but Xiao Wan couldn’t resist, Xiao Wan just wants to talk to Brother Yan. Xiao Wan knows Brother Yan must have something bothering him!" "If Xiao Wan did something wrong, just tell me, okay! Brother Yan, please don’t ignore me!" An Xiaowan’s tender shoulders shiver, her remarkably beautiful face looking like pear blossoms bathed in rain, tears streaming down in lines. The silly girl, she has been concerned about Bai Yan all this time, her warm heart filled with the sound and smile of Bai Yan alone. "Silly girl." Bai Yan gently lifts his hand to stroke An Xiaowan’s silky hair. Bai Yan softly comforts her: "I had some matters to attend to today, Brother Yan. It’s not that I didn’t want to pay attention to Xiao Wan, don’t cry silly girl." "You still say you didn’t ignore me, but you clearly have things on your mind that you don’t tell me. Brother Yan, you’re a big meanie!" An Xiaowan pouts, unwilling to let it go. Feeling the warmth of Bai Yan’s palm on her head, the slightly agitated and aggrieved emotions gradually subside. The man before her always manages to stir up the longing in An Xiaowan’s heart with his tenderness. "Fine, fine, I am the big villain." Bai Yan chuckled bitterly. "Hmph, I want to watch Pleasant Goat, and Brother Yan has to accompany me~" "Ah? Again? It’s getting so late..." "Does Brother Yan not like Xiao Wan anymore! It must be so..." "No, no, no, I’ll watch it with you." "Hmph, Xiao Wan suddenly doesn’t want to watch anymore, I’m going back to sleep. Sister said that given your terrible performance today, we are to give you the cold shoulder for the next two days! Xiao Wan won’t pay attention to you either!" "This..." Bai Yan touched his nose and chuckled bitterly, as An Xiaowan snorted cutely and turned away to leave Bai Yan’s room. The silly girl hesitated at Bai Yan’s door for a long time and then suddenly waved at Bai Yan. "What’s wrong now?" Bai Yan smiled tenderly, stepping forward. "Brother Yan, you have leek on your teeth!" "Huh? I don’t think so, I don’t remember eating leeks tonight." "Bend down, and I’ll get it out for you." "Alright... Hmm?!" Bai Yan was taken aback as he suddenly felt a gentle and sweet breath from her mouth, a warm touch that passed in an instant. An Xiaowan had sneak attacked Bai Yan again. "This girl, to think she dares take advantage of me." Bai Yan shook his head helplessly, tenderly watching An Xiaowan’s sneaky smile as she scampered away. Her joyous escape was like that of a lark, having stolen another kiss from Bai Yan, which made her extremely happy. The next morning, just as An Xiaowan had said, both An Yan and Chen Jing had stern faces from early on, as the four of them quietly ate breakfast, the atmosphere at the table eerily still. None of them spoke to Bai Yan, even An Xiaowan’s secret affectionate glances were caught by An Yan, who gave her a stern look, forcing An Xiaowan to hastily stick out her little tongue and dare not look at Bai Yan again. Great, these three women really planned to team up, all giving him the cold shoulder. Bai Yan inwardly chuckled bitterly, it was no big deal that the An sisters had a little temper. After all, Bai Yan, as a man, could certainly bear it if his women showed a little temper out of dissatisfaction because of his neglect yesterday. After breakfast, Bai Yan received a text from Li Xiaoman. He drove President An to work, then made a turn to head straight to Wanyan Company. In the president’s office of Wanyan Company, Li Xiaoman reported to him about the recent situation at the company. Thanks to the powerful effects of Wanyan Company’s three medicinal products, the company had become a hot new star in both HZ and the entire Hua Xia. Moreover, government higher-ups released a series of strong policies in favor of Wanyan Company last night, which undoubtedly told all major businesses in the national commerce that Wanyan Company had strong backing from above! Possessing unparalleled medicine and a strong national backing, Wanyan Company’s profile had risen dramatically! This clear signal meant that while Wanyan Company reaped huge financial profits, it also began to receive overtures from leading businesses in various fields, including the leading enterprises in the medical industry, enhancing Wanyan Company’s reputation and fame even further! Li Xiaoman worked overnight to draft alliance contracts, selecting several enterprises with solid influence in the national commerce to form strategic channel-sharing alliances, and Wanyan Company’s products would also be given preferential supply to these allies. Bai Yan was not very interested in the contents of Li Xiaoman’s report; he was currently only concerned about the poultry procurement matter. According to Li Xiaoman, due to the increased influence of Wanyan Company and intentional support from the Hua Xia higher-ups, the government and businesses have been giving Wanyan Company the green light, greatly increasing efficiency by more than tenfold! The first batch of poultry still was sent to Wanyan Company’s warehouse, with more batches in the process of being handled and transported. Hearing this, Bai Yan interrupted Li Xiaoman, "Okay, you decide on the rest. I’ll go to the warehouse first." Bai Yan urgently needed Demon energy. Before Li Xiaoman could report anything else, Bai Yan grabbed his car keys and left Wanyan Company. Li Xiaoman covered her snowy forehead and sighed helplessly, took out her phone, and called Bai Yan. "Master, there was one more thing I didn’t get to mention, concerning the Hengle Group from H country. Last night, the Lotte Group’s headquarters sent me a private apology email. They hope to reconcile with us and are looking for us to offer exclusive agency rights for Wanyan medicines in H country. I wanted to ask for your opinion?" "Agency rights are out of the question! As for the apology... how much are they willing to compensate?" "They don’t plan on compensating, just apologizing." "Very well! Immediately notify Wanyan’s ally businesses to join forces against Hengle!!" Bai Yan’s voice was very cold. If apologies worked, what’s the use of police? A mere small country’s enterprise that dared to provoke and entrap Wanyan Company within Hua Xia territory, Bai Yan must settle this account with Hengle Group from H country properly!
