Chapter 1677 Sudden interception
"Is it dangerous here?" Xue Chen was very suspicious. As for shooting without even seeing the person clearly? It felt like he was on the battlefield, always ready to shoot and fight.
Jessica hurriedly explained, saying that she was used to it, especially in this city, where there were many interests involved, especially since Golden Angel's business was getting better and better, so it would not be wrong to be careful.
After pouring a cup of coffee, the two sat down.
Xue Chen casually asked a few questions about the situation here. The answer he got was that everything was very good, everything was normal and orderly, and profits were increasing step by step. He also reported revenue, profits and other related performance.
Xue Chen waved his hands, signaling that there was no need to say anything further. Now these things were no longer in his eyes. No matter whether it was one hundred million US dollars or one billion US dollars, it would not cause any fluctuation in his mind.
"I will probably not come here very often in the future. You will be responsible for everything here. You can also regard it as a gift to you."
In response, Jessica did not show a strong reaction, pursed her lips, and after a moment of silence, asked why?
"Because all this has no meaning to me. You have been carefully managing and operating it all this time. You have put a lot of effort into it, so I just leave it to you." Xue Chen took a sip of coffee and looked at it.
Looking out at the bustling streets, the scenery that was once unparalleled in his eyes was now so inconspicuous.
"You will never come here again?"
"Come back, but it will be a long time later. Of course, if there is trouble here, I will still take care of it."
If he hadn't come to this North American continent unexpectedly, I don't know when he would come here again, unless there was a necessary reason.
"Why?" Jessica looked at him.
Seeing her, he wanted to know the reason. Xue Chen also talked about his own changes, and talked about spiritual practice, which is a more powerful force than supernatural powers. For a practitioner, money has become very unimportant, only realm and
Cultivation is eternal and the most worthy of pursuit.
"Cultivation... practice." Jessica said these two words in Chinese with confusion, "What is that? More powerful power?"
"Yes, more powerful power."
With his help, Jessica once had a superpower and became a superpower. However, in his opinion, superpowers are too weak now and can only be regarded as having some abilities among ordinary people.
It’s just that, according to the view of the cultivation world, it has not broken away from the category of ordinary people and is no longer on the same level as practitioners.
Although he doesn't see it that way, most practitioners have the same view that ordinary people are like ants, while people with special abilities are just some of the stronger ones and cannot be seen. The so-called superpowers are just the methods of some three-legged cats.
That's it, almost like a trick.
After listening to his words, Jessica fell into a long silence. Her pair of sea-blue eyes were uncertain. Suddenly, she raised her head and said firmly: "I also want... that kind of power."
Xue Chen also suddenly realized that the woman in front of him had an extraordinary persistence and pursuit of power. It was normal for him to suddenly propose such an idea, which also made him fall into deep thought.
"I also want the... powerful power you mentioned." Jessica repeated again, with a firm tone and blazing eyes.
Xue Chen was not thinking about whether to agree to Jessica's request, but about another thing, that is, there should be spiritual practice in this land of America. It must be very different from that in China. I don't know the details.
What does it look like.
"Are you sure you want to pursue the power of practice? If you want the power of practice, you have to leave here with me, leave your family, and leave everything you are familiar with. And practice is not an easy task."
Jessica stood up, knelt down in front of him, raised her delicate and beautiful face, stared at him with her sea-blue eyes, put a plain hand on his belt, her eyes were firm and burning, and her lips softly spoke.
, a pun: "I want it."
It took two days for Jessica to hand over all the work and business in Las Vegas and let others take charge without hesitation.
This also made Xue Chen feel that this woman's desire for power is really beyond the reach of ordinary people. If it were an ordinary person, sitting on huge wealth and enjoying all the glory, how could he give up casually for the seemingly illusory practice?
everything?
When she stepped onto the flying boat, Jessica gently caressed it with her hands, her eyes sparkling and her expression obsessed.
Buzz~
With a faint sound, the flying boat turned into an invisible lightning and headed towards the Pacific Ocean.
Xue Chen was telling Jessica about his practice. Suddenly, without warning, he heard another person's voice ringing in his ears.
"Practice of the East."
Looking in the direction from which the sound came, Xue Chen stood up in disbelief and saw a person standing on the top of a mountain in front of him. He also looked up and saw that the two people were facing each other.
It was a white man, wearing a white robe, holding a wooden stick in his hand, and his face was solemn.
When he saw the man raising his wooden stick and pointing towards the flying boat, Xue Chen felt a tyrannical force falling from the sky, wrapping around the flying boat and stagnating the speeding flying boat.
Jessica looked up, her face pale.
A huge humanoid figure loomed in the clouds, stretched out a huge hand, and grabbed the flying boat.
Xue Chen realized that he was in big trouble. The one below was much stronger than him, probably equivalent to the likes of Mao Jinshan, otherwise he would not have been able to stop the flying boat so easily.
Even if he doesn't know what will happen if he falls into the opponent's hands, the most important thing is to escape if possible, and he only has one chance. If he fails once, it will be completely impossible.
A guqin floated in front of him. Without hesitation, his five fingers plucked the strings vigorously, and all the spiritual energy in his body surged out and poured into it.
A sound of piano music came out of the flying boat, and it turned into dozens of sword shadows flying all over the sky. The sword energy spread across the sky and cut off the giant hand that grabbed the flying boat!
"escape!"
In an instant, the flying boat, which had escaped its confinement, turned into lightning and sped away.
The eyes of the white-robed old man on the high mountain flashed with surprise. He seemed not to have expected that he would miss. It was already too late to use his method again. The flying boat was already out of the area he could control.
"I actually have such a powerful sacred weapon in my possession, but it's a pity that the little guy escaped."
When the airship reached the top of the Pacific Ocean, Xue Chen breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on a chair. He was secretly lucky that the old man in white robe did not use the strongest means and gave him a chance to escape, otherwise he might have been killed.
"Xue Chen, what just happened?" Jessica has always been very courageous. She has faced life and death, and grew up in a hail of bullets. However, what just happened made her realize how small and fragile she is.
Beyond the limits of her imagination.
"A practitioner, a practitioner from your country, is very powerful, stronger than me, and wants to intercept me." Xue Chen let out a long sigh of relief.
Jessica was puzzled and asked why she did that?
Xue Chen didn't know the reason, but did he need a reason? No, if a foreign cultivator was flying across the land of China, he would probably encounter the same situation.
"You're careless. You should be more careful in other countries in the future."
This time he escaped and had better luck, but the next time he might not.
Jessica thought back to the giant figure she saw in the clouds when she looked up just now. It looked very much like the giant Goliath recorded in the Bible. After being frightened, she was extremely excited. She also wanted to obtain this incredible power.
.
The speed of the airship was extremely fast, far exceeding that of a commercial airplane. It only took about an hour to cross the Pacific and sight the land.
After taking a look at Jessica, Xue Chen considered where to place her. After thinking about it for a while, he came up with a solution and simply brought her to the headquarters.
When he returned to the capital and took Jessica into the headquarters, the chief housekeeper Lao Yu was the first to appear in front of him.
"Fortunately, you're fine. It's just a false alarm." Lao Yu said that the other three people had come back three months ago and brought back bad news.
"Fortunately, you have a spirit corpse clone. I can make sure that you are safe and sound. It'll be great if you come back. But there is still a lot of wealth waiting for you to collect."
Mentioning what he had gained from the ruins, Xue Chen's eyes lit up and he said, "I've worried you all. Some accidents did happen, but everything has passed."
Lao Yu nodded slightly, glanced at Jessica casually, showed a smile that every man would understand, but said nothing.
Soon, the news of Xue Chen's safe return was known to more people. Jin Xiaotang trotted in and grabbed his arm: "Junior brother Xue, you really scared me to death. Fortunately, fortunately, you came back safely."
Well, you can’t be so reckless in the future, why put yourself in danger personally, it’s so unwise.”
"Senior Brother Jin's advice is extremely true."
Indeed, it is very irrational for followers to enter the Tianwai Tower, but Xue Chen does not regret doing so. It was the first time he discovered the ruins, and it may be the only time. If he did not go in and take a look in person, he would leave a trace
Not a small regret.
"Who is this beautiful lady?" Jin Xiaotang, who was closer to her, asked casually after seeing Jessica.
"She is my friend, and she also wants to embark on spiritual practice."
Jin Xiaotang narrowed his eyes and nodded: "Hey, I didn't know you brought friends here, and you didn't prepare any meeting gifts. These are three reincarnation pills. They are of great help to those who have not yet set foot in spiritual practice and can improve their qualifications."
Seeing Xue Chen nodding in response, Jessica accepted it and thanked her politely.
"You're welcome, you're welcome, from now on we are all one family." Jin Xiaotang waved his hand, looked at Xue Chen again, stretched out a palm, "Junior Brother Xue, you have made a fortune this time, I heard
