Hm?
Chen Yang was taken aback!
He hadn't anticipated the woman would turn around.
But it was indeed quite soft!
The woman was equally stunned, with a warm flush instantly spreading to her face, her cheeks turning crimson!
"Die!!"
Filled with embarrassment and fury, the woman raised her hand, channeling her spiritual power, and delivered a fierce slap towards Chen Yang's head.
Chen Yang reacted at that precise moment, quickly releasing his grip and retaliating!
He seized the woman's arm, and with his other hand, clasped her neck, pressing her against the wall!
Faced with Chen Yang's overwhelming strength, the woman was utterly incapable of resisting and was instantly and firmly subdued.
"Speak! Who are you!"
While restraining the woman, Chen Yang demanded loudly.
The woman was consumed by embarrassment and rage! At this juncture, her thoughts weren't on her own safety but were replaying the earlier encounter in her mind!
"I intend to kill you," the woman spat through gritted teeth.
Observing the woman's expression, Chen Yang felt a pang of awkwardness. Although his earlier action wasn't intentional, it was undeniably a strange situation.
"Are you affiliated with the Qiu Alliance?" Seeing that the woman remained silent, Chen Yang decided to prompt her.
Yet, the woman offered no response, merely fixing Chen Yang with a murderous glare.
Chen Yang harbored a strong suspicion that she was indeed from the Qiu Alliance.
He considered revealing his true identity.
However, contemplating the sensitive nature of his position, he realized that an exposure would invite far too much trouble.
To err on the side of caution, he refrained from proactively disclosing himself and instead devised an alternative strategy.
After a moment of contemplation, an idea finally struck him.
If the woman hailed from the Qiu Alliance, her motive for targeting him was likely linked to the blood bat tattoo adorning his back.
Consequently, his plan was to remove the blood bat tattoo himself, anticipating a shift in her demeanor.
Conversely, if she were not associated with the Qiu Alliance, his action would yield no change.
With this thought solidified, Chen Yang promptly, in front of the woman, tore off the blood bat sticker from his back.
It unfolded precisely as Chen Yang had anticipated.
Upon witnessing the blood bat tattoo detach from Chen Yang's back, the woman's face contorted with a look of profound surprise and disbelief.
Chen Yang observed her intently; her reaction gave him substantial confirmation that this individual was very likely connected to the Qiu Alliance.
"You, your blood bat tattoo, how could it possibly come off?" the woman inquired with astonishment after a brief pause.
Chen Yang let out a light chuckle and replied, "It was merely a fake tattoo; naturally, it could be removed."
Hearing Chen Yang's declaration that the tattoo was counterfeit, the woman's expression shifted to one of resignation.
"I believe there has been a misunderstanding between us," Chen Yang stated calmly.
The woman remained uncommunicative.
Chen Yang persisted in his attempt to clarify: "I can assure you unequivocally that I have no affiliation with the Blood Bat Hall. Now, will you tell me, are you from the Qiu Alliance?"
"You truly aren't from the Blood Bat Hall?" The woman seemed to be starting to believe Chen Yang, yet she retained a sliver of doubt, preferring caution.
"Absolutely not. Otherwise, would you be able to point out a single member of the Blood Bat Hall capable of removing their own blood bat tattoo?" Chen Yang responded with firm conviction.
The woman offered no verbal reply, appearing to accept Chen Yang's assertion.
"So, your fabricated tattoo was merely a ploy to lure us into a trap, wasn't it?"
The woman was not unintelligent; through their exchange, she began to discern Chen Yang's ultimate objective.
"Yes, it was a lure to draw you out. However, do not misconstrue my intentions; I harbor no animosity towards your Qiu Alliance. My sole purpose is to inquire about an individual."
By this point, Chen Yang's confidence that the woman belonged to the Qiu Alliance had surged to over ninety percent. Consequently, he ceased restraining her and gradually released his hold.
Sensing that Chen Yang genuinely harbored no ill intent, the woman's demeanor softened, and the intense killing intent she previously directed at him began to dissipate.
"Who is it you are seeking information about?" the woman inquired, her gaze now fixed on Chen Yang.
Chen Yang did not withhold the information, stating directly, "Chen Tianmin."
Upon hearing the name, the woman's expression flickered subtly, a change almost imperceptible.
Yet, it did not escape Chen Yang's keen observation.
For Chen Yang had been meticulously observing her throughout their encounter.
"Is this individual part of your Qiu Alliance?" Chen Yang pressed on, noting the woman's continued silence.
The woman remained quiet, her silence serving as an implicit confirmation.
Perceiving the woman's extreme caution and her reluctance to divulge further information, Chen Yang decided to cease his inquiries. He stated plainly, "Please do not misunderstand. I genuinely bear no hostility towards your organization. It is simply that Chen Tianmin and I share a history, and I have come to seek him out for a specific matter, nothing more."
"However, I am aware of the unique nature of your Qiu Alliance. I do not expect you to escort me to him at this moment. Perhaps you could convey something to him on my behalf?"
With that, Chen Yang produced a piece of paper.
The paper was densely covered in writing; it contained the medicinal formula previously devised to aid Chen Tianmin's recovery.
"If you see him, give this to him and also convey the message that I’m at the Provincial Capital’s Lin Tian Xia Hotel, tell him to report my name at the front desk." Chen Yang handed the paper to the woman and provided an address.
In this manner, should Uncle see the note, he would certainly know I’ve arrived to find him.
At that point, he would undoubtedly come to the hotel out of concern.
"Okay, you may depart now."
Having finished all he needed to say, Chen Yang saw no reason to detain the woman and promptly told her she was free to go.
The woman’s mind was quite unsettled at that moment.
She was unsure if Chen Yang could be trusted.
But because she had been released, she naturally would not linger any longer.
Without uttering a word, she took the note and departed.
"Truly cautious; no wonder this Qiu Alliance has managed to exist under the Blood Bat Hall’s watch for so many years. There’s a valid reason for it."
Chen Yang observed the direction where the woman vanished, offered a chuckle, and then ceased overthinking the matter.
He was now quite certain that the woman belonged to the Qiu Alliance.
Furthermore, his Uncle was also affiliated with the Qiu Alliance; he trusted the note would soon reach Chen Tianmin, and Chen Tianmin would definitely seek him out.
Once they met, a multitude of issues could potentially be resolved.
Chen Yang exited the derelict building and made his way back to the original stone market.
It was already ten o’clock at night, yet the area remained lively, with a constant flow of people.
The very stall from which he had previously procured raw stones was particularly busy, a testament to him having unearthed top-grade raw stones there earlier that day.
Chen Yang cast a swift glance, then returned to his car.
Inside the vehicle, Wang Jingman had been patiently waiting for some time.
Upon seeing Chen Yang’s return, she quickly inquired, "Chen Yang, did you manage to catch up with them?"
"Yes, I caught up with them," Chen Yang affirmed with a nod. "They likely belong to the Qiu Alliance, but they are far too guarded to reveal anything."
"Huh? So, does this mean you won't be able to locate your Second Uncle?" Wang Jingman asked.
"Not necessarily; though they remained silent, I entrusted them with something, and Second Uncle will come looking for us if he receives it," Chen Yang clarified.
"Well then, did you leave an address?"
"Naturally, I did."
"Where is it?"
"The Lin Tian Xia Hotel."
...
After resolving all outstanding matters, Chen Yang immediately escorted Wang Jingman to the Lin Tian Xia Hotel within the provincial capital, securing a presidential suite.
This particular hotel was under the ownership of the Li Family, Li Han’s family.
Due to its status as a chain establishment, the name had remained unchanged, still bearing the designation Lin Tian Xia.
While completing the check-in process, Chen Yang explicitly instructed the front desk personnel to respond truthfully should anyone inquire about his whereabouts.
Having attended to these arrangements, Chen Yang then confidently led Wang Jingman towards their hotel room.
