Chapter 570: 358, New Daytime group member

The night was deep and quiet.

A stealthy figure wrapped itself tightly, silently getting off the taxi.

Not far away lay the Los Angeles North Suburb Airport, to which he handed the driver a hundred-dollar bill, “Keep the change.”

With that, he attempted to sneak toward the airport.

The driver glanced at him and said, “107 dollars, give me another seven.”

The masked person replied in a muffled voice, “…Okay.”

In this cold black night, his heart raced from extreme nervousness.

However, before he took two steps, he suddenly encountered a familiar face blocking his way.

The masked man turned to run but found more than a dozen students emerging from the woods behind him.

He tried to run to the left, and another dozen students appeared from the green belt, watching him expressionlessly.

Ambush from all sides!

The masked person breathed heavily.

“Jiang Yichen, are you in such a hurry to leave Los Angeles?” Nan Gengchen said with a smile, “You left without saying goodbye in the wilderness last time, why not let us see you off?”

The masked person gave in and lowering his scarf, he sighed, “How about I compensate you with the cost of a car? I can pay triple or even calculate the value of the items in the car. I’m willing to compensate.”

Nan Gengchen chuckled, “Of course we know you’re rich, after all, top celebrities earn more than we can imagine, but after you killed Qing Zhong, you deliberately hid in our convoy and used Freemasonry as a shield. Shouldn’t we settle this matter?”

Jiang Yichen was stunned for a moment. He had foreseen the danger and left early, but he hadn’t expected Freemasonry to be so well-informed.

“How did you find out?” Jiang Yichen was puzzled.

“You don’t need to worry about that,” Qi Duo stepped forward, “We had no quarrels, so why use us like this?”

Freemasonry’s first agenda, after their return tonight, was to track down Jiang Yichen.

Although they were a newly established organization, being used and mocked without a proper explanation could not unite their members.

Jiang Yichen was confused, “How did you manage to track my movements?”

Nan Gengchen answered honestly, “We paid Sister Station 200 dollars, she knows the flight information of celebrities.”

Jiang Yichen: “???”

He had never imagined that they would track him down in such a simple and unadorned way.

So those groupies chasing stars actually had such capabilities!

Jiang Yichen, facing the twenty or so Freemasonry members surrounding him, spoke earnestly, “It’s true, I was wrong to use you all. How about this, I’ll transfer the money to you right now.”

Nan Gengchen looked at Qi Duo, “Take the money, it’ll be good funding for Freemasonry’s operation in the Outer World.”

But at this moment, Jiang Yichen asked, “Was it Hu Xiaoniu who told you about me?”

Nan Gengchen shook his head, “No.”

“It must be him,” Jiang Yichen insisted, “But you all shouldn’t be used by him either. This guy is one of the core members of the Daytime group; you know about Daytime, right?”

“Daytime?” Nan Gengchen and the others looked at each other.

Jiang Yichen raised his eyebrows, “You don’t even know about Daytime? Well, it makes sense, they’ve done quite a bit, but their reputation isn’t well-known outside, known only to people like He Xiaoxiao and a few other high-level group members. Let me tell you what Daytime has done…”

As Jiang Yichen explained, Nan Gengchen and the others grew more astonished.

Because they had always thought that Freemasonry was at the forefront among student organizations, but compared to what Daytime had done, it seemed insignificant.

And Liu Dezhu, who had once been well-known, was just an ordinary member of Daytime.

The abduction case from Laojun Mountain, the sniper incident on Xingshu Road, the battle at Weiyang Lake in Xian City, Jindai, the reverse time travel plan on Deer Island.

Not one of these incidents was something these students could partake in!

Jiang Yichen whispered, “I’ve sent the money, and also shared such important information. Can we consider our debts settled?”

Nan Gengchen pondered for a moment, “Alright, from now on, you and Freemasonry have no grudges, and we’ll stay out of each other’s way.”

Jiang Yichen exhaled a long breath and ran toward the airport, fearing that if he didn’t hurry, Freemasonry might change their minds.

But he was overthinking it. After all, Freemasonry was still a student organization, not a violent group, and they wouldn’t really harm him.

…

Villa number 12 in National Treasure Garden.

Inside Qing Chen’s bedroom.

“Brother Chen, are you sure we don’t need to follow you to City Number 10?” Nan Gengchen asked. “We’re all cultivators now, and with Luo Wanya’s situation looking up, we’re sure to be of some help.”

“No need,” Qing Chen replied calmly, “It’s more convenient if I go alone.”

“Are you worried that we might get into danger?” Nan Gengchen inquired.

In Nan Gengchen’s eyes, the other members of Daytime had always been lucky because Qing Chen bore most of the pressure, allowing them to live at ease.

Yet as a friend, he wanted to offer his help, even if it meant not going to City Number 7 with Li Yinuo.

Nan Gengchen hung his head, “Brother Chen, although we are weak, no, we’ve always been weak. Back when we were merely students, I copied your tests, your homework, and always asked you for help. I thought everything was fine because you were there. But whereas before I could accept your protection without guilt, now I cannot, because you are facing real danger.”

Nan Gengchen looked up at Qing Chen, “If there is real danger, let us help you. After all, we are also members of the organization.”

Qing Chen paused for a moment, then smiled, “If there’s really something I can’t handle, I will call you to assemble in City Number 10. But until then, you need to focus on your cultivation. By the way, how is your cultivation progressing?”

Nan Gengchen thought for a moment and said, “I feel like I can finish cultivating the second energy channel very soon.”

After completing the Grand Circulation, the cultivation of the Primal Method requires also cultivating sixteen body energy channels, ascending a level for every eight channels completed.

That is to say, Nan Gengchen, in a week’s time, could complete two energy channels with Li Yinuo. In a month, they could ascend a level, eventually reaching C-Class in two months.

To reach B-Class, one must integrate the energy channels seamlessly with the bright spot.

Qing Chen silently observed Nan Gengchen.

For a Genetic Warrior to improve a level, an additional month’s interval is required; it takes five months to complete.

Could the dual cultivation of the Primal Method actually be faster than the leveling speed of a Genetic Warrior?!

Is the Primal Method that powerful, or is it Nan Gengchen and Li Yinuo who are amazing?

Nan Gengchen’s expression was a bit unnatural: “Brother Chen, looking at me like that makes me a little scared…”

Just then, Qing Chen inadvertently looked down at his arm and was astonished to discover, “This countdown is two days!”

It was 2 a.m., and the countdown on his arm was 46:00:00.

After countless travels, all Time Travelers assumed that the interval for every time travel, every return, had become fixed at seven days.

So much so that upon returning, they no longer looked at their arms immediately.

Qing Chen frowned in thought. What exactly was causing this time interval to change?

Could it be that a new wave of players with ‘public test qualifications’ was about to appear? Or could it be that the passage between two parallel worlds has always been unstable?

No one could be sure about what was happening, but it meant that if they had matters to handle in the Outer World, they needed to act quickly.

Qing Chen told Nan Gengchen to return to his own room, then spoke to his phone, “Yi, help me send an invitation to Yangyang’s cell number, invite her into the Daytime group.”

Yi: “One hundred bucks.”

Qing Chen: “…We’re friends!”

Yi: “You won’t even give me one hundred bucks, and you talk to me about friendship?!”

Qing Chen sighed, “Fine, one hundred bucks.”

Five minutes later, a message suddenly appeared in the Daytime group.

User ‘Boss’s Fan’ has entered the chat, and she is not friends with any group member. Please beware of scams.

Qing Chen was immediately dumbfounded. Not to mention how weird Yangyang’s ID was, but why was there even a fraud warning in an internal group chat?!

Qing Chen private messaged Yangyang, “Change your ID…”

Yangyang immediately replied: “Can’t even speak the truth now?”

Qing Chen: “Is that the truth?”

Yangyang: “How should you talk to a fan? Show me some respect.”

Qing Chen: “…Alright, that’s enough.”

Yangyang: “Hahaha, help me hide my identity, huh? I think it’s pretty interesting to be in the group undercover.”

The group chat background displayed another message: ‘Boss’s Fan’ has changed her ID to ‘Unremarkable Little Genius’.

Qing Chen sighed inwardly; Tycoon, Little Rich Woman, Little Genius, Brave Little Niu, Not Afraid of Difficulties, this group hardly had any normal IDs.

At that moment, Li Tongyun, hiding upstairs, sent a message: “Welcome Little Genius to Daytime!”

Ice Eye: “Welcome!”

Liu Dezhu: “Throwing flowers!”

The atmosphere suddenly livened up, until…

Tycoon: “Send a red packet for the group-joining process, thank you.”

Qing Chen was both amused and frustrated, not knowing why, but it seemed like the Yi in the Outer World was obsessed with money.

Boss: “This person is an old member of Daytime, just that they couldn’t join the group previously due to some reasons.”

Unremarkable Little Genius: “Right, Boss forgot to invite me into the group.”

Boss: “…”

Liu Dezhu: “By the way, who is this Unremarkable Little Genius? Have we met? Are you a guy or a girl?”

Unremarkable Little Genius: “A guy.”

Little Rich Woman: “Handsome?”

Unremarkable Little Genius: “Not bad, nicknamed Shanghai’s Daniel Wu.”

Hu Xiaoniu, realizing as well that it must be Yangyang’s words as they’re both from Haicheng, was quick to catch on.

Qing Chen, seeing that Yangyang was planning to stir up trouble in the group, hurriedly got down to business.

Boss: “Xiao Niu, has Freemasonry contacted you?”

Brave Little Niu: “They have, they called me wanting to pay a visit, but I haven’t agreed yet. Boss, it seems like they somehow found out about Daytime and came asking me, but I haven’t responded.”

Qing Chen thought for a bit, then replied with the Boss account: “Agree to it. Let them come straight to the villa. You go look for Luo Wanya, we’ll put on a play.”
