Episode 68: Chen Yi's Shock
Li Yan, who had already left, naturally didn't know. Chen Zhenbang, who was just here, told him something that would have triggered intense jealousy and admiration if others had heard it.
The Chen family's power is unimaginable, and Chen Zhenbang, the mayor of Longtan City, has a grasp on power that is unmatched in the entire city.
If we understand it from the official meaning, Secretary Fang Zheng of the Municipal Party Committee is actually the highest-ranking power figure in Longtan City. In a certain sense, Chen Jia can also be said to be an absolute giant tree that touches the sky.
Because, the so-called elites in Chen's family, relying on Chen's full support over the years, plus their extremely outstanding abilities and talents, have tremendous power in many fields. Even in higher power centers, they also possess great power, it can be said without exaggeration that just these alone are enough to make people from Chen's family unscrupulously dominate the entire Longtan City.
Apart from this, even if it involves economy, the financial power controlled by the Chen and Lin families is also the strongest in Longtan City, and has already begun to extend to neighboring provinces and cities.
Even if it's some of the black forces in Longtan City, although they don't belong to the Chen family directly, with the Chen family's status and power, if there's any order given, all the black forces in Longtan City wouldn't dare disobey. Such a huge family is indeed enough to make countless people in Longtan City flock to them.
Chen Zhenbang, at a young age, is already the mayor of Longtan City. It's clear that this generation of the Chen family is the new helmsman in the officialdom. Even those big shots in the officialdom, who also have extremely high status, would treat him as an equal when they meet.
However, even so, thinking of what had just happened, Chen Zhenbang couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and he secretly glanced at Li Yan who was already far away.
He also had the heart to send someone to investigate Li Yan's background, to see what kind of earth-shaking secret was hidden behind him, but as soon as he thought of the other party's mysterious and unpredictable power, as well as his cold attitude, Chen Zhenbang couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine again.
So at this moment, he hastily dialed the phone to the old man in his home.
Even if he is the new helmsman of the Chen family in the officialdom, but in fact, whenever there are major decisions to be made, Chen Zhenbang often still has to ask for his father Chen Yi's opinion. As a veteran of the founding of the country, the old man's prestige within the Chen family is such that no one dares to question it in the slightest!
At this moment, he clearly heard that with his own explanation, the breathing of the person in front of him suddenly became urgent, filled with deep doubt.
"Unbelievable, unbelievable..." After a long, long wait, Chen Zhenbang finally heard the person on the other side let out a deep sigh, followed by Chen Yi's astonished words, "You're saying that he is the Li Yan who treated my illness? Right, you didn't send someone to investigate his background or anything?"
"No, I don't dare to, afraid of disturbing Mr. Li." Chen Zhenbang immediately nodded in agreement.
"That's good, for someone like him, you'd better not make any rash moves. He can save my life, and now he's saved yours too, it's already a great opportunity for the Chen family. Don't provoke him, anyway, we've already given him our contact information last time, if in the future, he needs us, he will naturally get in touch with us. You should come back now."
"Yes." Chen Zhenbang nodded immediately.
With a strange thought in mind, Chen Zhenbang took another look at the direction of the hospital and immediately bid farewell to Hua Qingxuan and others, driving back.
At the same time Chen Zhenbang was hurrying back and forth, in the Ocean Garden, the Chen family residence, an elderly man who still looked somewhat frail was pacing back and forth with a shocked expression.
A young man under twenty years old, not only has mysterious medical skills, but also has such unpredictable energy, could he really be that kind of strange person?
Even at this moment, even if the news was spoken by his own son Chen Zhenbang, Chen still couldn't quite believe it.
He could catch bullets with his bare hands, except for that freak, he really couldn't think of anyone else who could do it, at least not even the legendary innate experts had this skill.
Unless it is a congenital boundary peak martial arts powerhouse, there may be a possibility of calmly leaving under the gun, but that is absolutely impossible to easily accept!
As the highest level of a country, although he has retired, he still holds many secrets. He also knows that there are strong people who can withstand bullets with their physical body. These incredible existences, in this modern era where everything is about science, may seem like fairy tales to ordinary people, but in fact, they are indeed facts.
Cultivation is a means of transcending one's physical limitations and becoming incredibly powerful, passed down since ancient times. Even in modern times, there are various training methods available to the public, such as Jeet Kune Do and Judo. However, modern training methods only cultivate the external body, relying on different intensities of exercise to strengthen a person's external physical strength. In contrast, the traditional martial arts that have been passed down since ancient times emphasize both internal and external cultivation.
Cultivate inner energy internally, cultivate martial skills externally, and temper oneself in all aspects. Therefore, the first realm of martial arts cultivation is Xiantian!
The power of internal and external cultivation is far stronger than that of only cultivating the external body. Even a ordinary high-level martial artist in the initial stage of innate realm can easily defeat a master-level practitioner of Jeet Kune Do or Taekwondo who only cultivates external physical strength, without any difficulty.
However, cultivating both internal and external is much more difficult than just cultivating the external body. Moreover, in modern times, the original driving force that can make cultivators quickly become stronger, the heavenly energy between heaven and earth, has become extremely scarce. This also makes it increasingly difficult for those who cultivate both internal and external to practice.
Furthermore, there is no force to commercialize it and push it to the world, so people who know about it are extremely rare.
Once one has achieved something in their cultivation, the power that a single individual can exert is absolutely enough to make ordinary people's eyes widen in shock.
When a martial artist of this level breaks through the Xiantian boundary and truly enters the next legendary stage of liquefaction and pill condensation, the power they possess will increase in intensity to a terrifying degree, and they can even fly freely in the air. It's as if they are like those mysterious and unpredictable gods in legend.
However, Wu Xiu's difficulties were simply too great. Chen Yi clearly knew that in the past few decades, looking at the entire country, the number of people who could cross the boundary of congenital realm was not more than a handful, and those few had all been figures capable of summoning the wind and rain in the country.
As for those few people, he had only heard of their names.
If the rumors about those few characters are true, that they can catch bullets with their bare hands, Chen Yi absolutely believes it! But he doesn't dare to believe that a young man in his early twenties could do this, he simply doesn't dare to believe.
"He's too young, he's too young. Although there are rumors that in the prime of heaven and earth, with a weak crown age, one can reach this realm, such masters are not rare, but after all, it's not modern times, it's not martial arts cultivation... what is it?..." As Chen Yi thought to himself, pacing back and forth hastily, his eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of insight.
If the other party is indeed that kind of person, then this time it would truly be the Chen family's greatest opportunity. However, Chen Yi suddenly became distracted again. Although the other party had saved them twice, they turned around and left immediately each time. It seemed as though they didn't think much of the Chen family. If they really missed out on this chance, that would be a pity.
But if he were to send someone to investigate, according to Chen Zhenbang's description of Li Yan's cold attitude, to be honest, for the time being, Chen Yi really didn't dare. However, since he had twice lent a helping hand, it seemed that he wasn't particularly opposed to the Chen family either, and perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope...
For a moment, Chen was lost in thought, his whole person was shaken, all because the power displayed by Li Yan brought him an overwhelming shock.
