Just after coming down the mountain, the beautiful CEO took me to register

Chapter 224 The existence of terror

The phone rang suddenly.

"Brother Fan, there's something going on over at Dongshan Island." Liang Jiehua's voice came from the receiver. "Those foreigners are starting to retreat."

"Oh? Were they scared by me, or did they discover something that scared them?" Lin Fan asked casually.

"It's a bit of both. You've caused them quite a shock, and there seems to be some terrifying existence hidden deep in the island. Many people have already met with accidents." Liang Jiehua explained.

"Then they won't fight for the artifact?" Lin Fan raised his lips with a mocking smile. He knew that the so-called terrifying existence was most likely a snow leopard.

"Although the artifact is tempting, you have to be alive to enjoy it." Liang Jiehua sighed.

"I went deep into the island, but aren't you curious about what I discovered?" Lin Fan lit a cigarette and asked casually.

"Brother Fan, don't keep us in suspense. Has the artifact fallen into your hands?" Liang Jiehua's voice suddenly became excited.

"Guess for yourself." Lin Fan exhaled a puff of smoke and smiled mysteriously.

Changing the subject, Liang Jiehua brought up another matter: "Someone on the dark web has launched a 'Mie Ming' plan to deal with you, and they are currently raising funds."

"Oh? How much money have they raised?" Lin Fan asked with interest.

“It’s already several million dollars.”

"Millions of dollars?" Lin Fan sneered disdainfully. "Isn't that too disrespectful? Tell them, this little bit of money can't buy my life."

"They are just talking, just ignore them," Liang Jiehua advised.

"We still have to be careful. We have to be more cautious now," Lin Fan warned. "Tell Old Lu to be more vigilant as well."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Fan saw that Shen Wei and Xu Kai had opened their eyes, their faces filled with excitement.

"Brother Fan, this spiritual liquid is really amazing. I feel like my cultivation has improved a lot!" Shen Wei said excitedly.

Lin Fan glanced at them with his spiritual sense, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Not bad, keep up the good work."

Thinking of the rich spiritual liquid resources under the abyss of Dongdao, he began to look forward to it. After those foreigners and people from the ancient martial arts world left, he planned to go there often to practice.

At this time, Chen Luobai called and said, "Are you free tonight? Bring Mr. Zhao along for dinner."

"Take Mr. Zhao with you? What's going on?" Lin Fan asked in confusion.

"It's just a gathering of old friends. Doesn't she want to do some carving? Let her come and meet people." Chen Luobai explained.

Lin Fan understood his master's intention and agreed. After hanging up the phone, he turned to Shen Wei and said, "Do you still want to be a security guard? How can you, the eldest son of the Shen family, be a security guard?"

"Brother Fan, please let me experience it for a few more days." Shen Wei begged, "Isn't it okay if I don't want the salary?"

"Do you think I'll still pay you? It's good enough that I've let you experience it for a few days." Lin Fan said unhappily, "Just come and play when you have time in the future. Don't get involved in these things anymore."

Although Shen Wei was a little disappointed after hearing this, he felt relieved when he thought about being able to play with Brother Fan in the future. Then he remembered something else: "By the way, Brother Fan, my grandfather and my father want to invite you to visit the Shen family."

"Let's talk about it later. I'm very busy." Lin Fan turned his head away, pretending to be busy.

Wow! That’s amazing!

As soon as the bell rang, Lin Fan and Zhao Ziqing hurriedly bought some exquisite gifts, and then rushed to the meeting place with great enthusiasm.

"Junior brother, President Zhao, you are finally here!" Pei Hanjie had been waiting for a long time and came up to greet them with a smile on his face.

"Second Brother, who are you waiting for? Are there other guests coming?" Lin Fan asked curiously.

"No, I'm just waiting for you two." Pei Hanjie responded happily.

"Let's go, Master and the others are eagerly waiting."

"It seems that I am treated like this today because of Mr. Zhao's help." Lin Fan joked.

"Hahaha, of course, Mr. Zhao is our VIP guest."

The three of them chatted and laughed as they walked towards the yard together.

Not long after, Lin Fan saw his master Chen Luobai and several energetic old men. Although he did not know these old men, Zhao Ziqing next to him widened his eyes with surprise.

It turned out that these elders were actually six of the nine great masters of Chinese sculpture! This grand occasion was truly rare to see!

With Chen Luobai's enthusiastic introduction, Lin Fan got to know these masters one by one. They all came from far away to attend Lin Fan's apprenticeship banquet, and they arrived early to get together with old friends.

These masters looked at Lin Fan one after another. They saw that he was handsome, had a sweet smile, and was quite approachable. However, in this industry, appearance was not the most important thing.

They couldn't help but wonder: Is this guy really as amazing as Old Chen boasts? Is he really a rare carving prodigy?

At the same time, Chen Luobai also introduced Zhao Ziqing to everyone. These masters were all familiar with Zhao Ziqing's name and greeted her warmly.

"Who are those?" Lin Fan glanced at the men standing nearby and asked Pei Hanjie in a low voice.

"They are disciples of several masters, just like I follow my master when I go out." Pei Hanjie explained.

"I see." Lin Fan suddenly understood, and then took the initiative to step forward and greet them, showing a friendly attitude.

After the greetings, everyone took their seats. However, all the scrutinizing eyes fell on Lin Fan at the same time, which made his heart skip a beat. He secretly wondered: Tonight's party might not be just a simple meal, right?

As expected, Chen Luobai coughed lightly and said awkwardly, "Xiao Fan, I invited you here tonight because I want you to show off your talent in front of all the masters."

Lin Fan immediately understood his master's intention. Although he felt a little surprised and nervous, he still smiled politely and nodded, "Okay, Master. Please tell me how to demonstrate it."

"Hahaha!" Chen Luobai was overjoyed upon seeing this and was even more satisfied with this disciple. He treated people in a polite and generous manner and didn't look like a greenhorn at all!

"I want you to try how the knife feels." Chen Luobai said with a smile.

"Knife sense? Master, I haven't started learning carving yet..." Lin Fan scratched his head helplessly.

"It's okay. I just want you to get the feel for it and carve it casually." Chen Luobai comforted.

"Okay then." Lin Fan nodded in agreement.

Then Chen Luobai ordered Pei Hanjie to get the carving tools and materials, and soon a piece of jade and a set of carving tools were placed in front of Lin Fan.

"What are these tools used for?" Lin Fan asked curiously as he opened the carving toolbox.
