Lin Tian sat in the front passenger seat, turning his head to look at Tian Ming driving, and said, "I say, Old Tian, you came just in time. If you were a bit later, I would have had a lot more work to do."

"Hey," Tian Ming laughed, "It was luck. The address you sent earlier was in the suburbs, and it’s very close to our training camp. I happened to be training members there today, so it worked out perfectly."

Lin Tian smiled, "The training camp is nearby? How far?"

"Not far, usually just over half an hour by car. But seeing you were in a hurry earlier, we made it in fifteen minutes." Tian Ming replied.

"Since that’s the case, let’s not drive to the company. Head straight to the training camp. By the way, the stuff in the car is very important, find some reliable people to watch it." Lin Tian said.

"Okay," Tian Ming responded straightforwardly.

"Remember to hide it well. We’re being watched by people from Luoyan Dock now, so we must be cautious. Luckily, there aren’t any cameras around here, otherwise, our movements would be exposed."

"Being watched by people from Luoyan Dock? Tian, what do you mean? Those people wielding swords earlier, they were from Luoyan Dock?" Tian Ming looked at Lin Tian, stunned.

Lin Tian nodded, "Yeah, didn’t you see? In the mountain valley, there’s a palace-like structure, that’s Luoyan Dock."

"Shit! Tian! We’ve really gotten into big trouble this time!" Tian Ming couldn’t help but curse.

"What’s wrong?"

"Do you really not know or are you pretending? That’s Luoyan Dock! I’ve heard about them before, they’re quite formidable. Many in Luoyan Dock have served in the military and are extraordinary masters. Moreover, many have significant influence in the military. How did you offend them?"

Lin Tian smiled bitterly and said, "I didn’t intend to offend them, I was just forced to. Besides, we were all wearing masks, how could they possibly trace it back to us?"

Hearing this, Tian Ming felt slightly relieved, "Let’s hope so."

"By the way, it’s been several months, can’t our security be launched into the market yet?" Lin Tian asked.

"A batch started positions last month, just in the villa neighborhood where you live and in the schools." Tian Ming answered.

This answer somewhat surprised Lin Tian, "Why are they all around me?"

"Brother Yong was thoughtful, saying your safety is quite important. He also mentioned he wants to be a hands-off manager like you." Tian Ming added.

Lin Tian shook his head with a bitter smile, "I’m not being a hands-off manager, I’m quite busy as well."

"Haha, I know, busy chasing girls, right?"

"..."

Lin Tian was speechless for a moment, then said to Tian Ming, "There’s another thing. Those we just caught, keep them locked up first, find someone to interrogate them thoroughly. Bai Wuchang is among them, teach her a lesson for me. As long as you don’t kill him, do whatever you want."

"Understood!" Tian Ming nodded with a sinister smile, clearly understanding Lin Tian’s implication. Bai Wuchang was in for some trouble.

"By the way, Tian, I’ve already arranged a room for you. When we arrive at the training camp, would you like to rest for a bit?" Tian Ming asked.

Lin Tian glanced at the time in the car and said, "No need, arrange a car for me, I want to head back to the villa now."

"Alright," Tian Ming didn’t ask any more questions. He knew his place well, just a subordinate needing to follow orders.

...

Lin Tian drove alone in a very inconspicuous van, heading into the city along the highway.

Now with the Linglong Dice obtained, Pan Lihua was in the villa.

With these two herbs, he could concoct the Meridian Passage Elixir, not only to unblock the Ren and Du Meridians but also to help Liou Qingcheng recover.

In Lin Tian’s mind, nothing was more important than this.

By the time he got back to the villa, the sky was getting dimly bright.

He turned on his phone, and it rang immediately—it was a call from Chen Moxiang.

"Hello, good morning," Lin Tian said with a smile.

Chen Moxiang anxiously scolded, "You big-headed idiot! How are you now? Why are you only answering now? You nearly scared me to death!"

Feeling the concern behind the scolding, Lin Tian smiled knowingly, "I had to turn my phone off while raiding the medicine vault, just turned it on now that I’m home. What’s up?"

"Do you have the nerve to ask what’s up? Didn’t you hear the alarm from Luoyan Dock when you left the medicine vault?"

"I heard it, and I knew it was you covering for me. To show my gratitude, I’ll treat you to dinner sometime." Lin Tian replied cheerfully.

"Hmph, at least you have some conscience. Forget about the dinner. I called just to see if someone ambushed you and if you’re still alive. Didn’t expect you, ungrateful jerk, to take so long to answer."

Chen Moxiang didn’t realize she sounded a bit resentful, even with a hint of coquettishness, while speaking.

Lin Tian chuckled awkwardly, "There was some trouble on the way, but fortunately, nothing dangerous."

"That’s good. There’s something else I need to tell you. The Wang Family and the Yue Family have been discovered by the Alliance. The Xu Family is also involved." Chen Moxiang said.

"What? The Xu Family is involved too? What’s going on?" Lin Tian asked anxiously. This was truly unexpected. They were supposed to be hiding in the rear, how were they discovered?

"Yes, the information is reliable. Besides, I clearly saw the situation last night. When you entered the medicine vault, the guards acted like a bunch of fools, likely affected by the Xu Family’s Charm Technique, right?"

Regarding the Charm Technique, Lin Tian had nothing to explain, so he directly asked, "But how did the Alliance find out? They withdrew when I did!" Lin Tian felt a bit panicked. Mei Ruyan was still at the Xu Family’s, and if something happened to them, she would certainly be implicated!

"It seems they used some Array. The materials from the Array were left all over Luoyan Dock, and it was discovered because they couldn’t be cleaned up in time." Chen Moxiang explained.

Lin Tian smacked his head, remembering that Miaoqiu did mention the materials for the Array were extensive and not easy to dispose of quickly.

Moreover, at that time, Luoyan Dock’s defenses were at their tightest, so how could it have been handled completely?

"How are they now?" Lin Tian asked.

"I’m not sure for now. Too many families are involved this time, making it impossible for the Alliance to make a direct decision. What I know is, the auction meeting is tomorrow. The Alliance’s top officials and members of each family will be there, so this issue should have a resolution soon." Chen Moxiang conveyed.

Lin Tian immediately felt a wave of anxiety. What a mess. The Xu Family got involved too!
