Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

"No...not good!"

But at that very moment, the driver, who was observing the resort through binoculars, suddenly turned around in shock and exclaimed, "Chairman Li, something's happened..."

His face was filled with terror.

"What's wrong?"

Li Chengkun looked displeased, but the driver, his hand trembling, handed him the binoculars, not daring to speak. Li Chengkun grabbed them, rolled down the window, and looked towards the villa area—

The next moment, Li Chengkun was also stunned. In the binoculars' view, three corpses were hanging from the villa's flagpole, swaying in the wind...

The Three Zhou Brothers!

"what?!"

Li Chengkun spoke in disbelief, and the binoculars in his hand fell to the ground.

The three Zhou brothers are all dead?!

how can that be!

The simultaneous appearance of three Foundation Establishment cultivators is practically synonymous with invincibility in this era.

Chen Jinhua is only at the Foundation Establishment stage, how could he possibly achieve that?

"No, no, the intelligence is wrong!"

He exclaimed, "We've been tricked!"

Even though he had seen countless storms and experienced countless ups and downs, he felt a chill run through his body at this moment.

The demise of three Foundation Establishment cultivators... even for a behemoth like the Li family, it's a devastating blow, a loss they cannot afford.

The only possibility is that the Restorationists had already made preparations and were just waiting for the Li family to jump in!

"You treacherous, despicable, and shameless bunch!!"

He roared, his eyes red, his fists clenched in anger!

"Chairman Li, what do we do now? Order an attack?"

The driver asked in a trembling voice.

"Attack your mother!"

Li Chengkun completely lost his composure and shouted, "Retreat! Retreat now!"

It's now clear that the Dao Restoration Group was prepared. Even three Foundation Establishment cultivators have died in battle. Why would they attack? Are they just throwing their lives away?

Upon hearing this, the driver felt as if he had been granted a pardon, and he floored the gas pedal, the car speeding away.

The hidden cultivators of the Li Group also withdrew one after another.

……

"What exactly is going on with the formation here?"

Once things were basically safe at the villa, Chen Jinhua meditated for a long time and, after completing his breathing exercises, asked Zeng Chenglin a question.

Zeng Chenglin said, "Reporting to the elder, some time ago I discovered that the earth veins here contain extraordinary power, so I used the original protective formation to reconnect with the earth veins..."

He has a deep understanding of formations, so his answer at this moment is not a problem.

Chen Jinhua nodded, without any suspicion.

"Chief Zeng has made a great contribution to the group, single-handedly killing three Foundation Establishment cultivators. This merit is enough for you to go to headquarters!"

At this moment, Gu Lianxi suddenly spoke with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zeng Chenglin frowned and said in a deep voice, "Young Master Gu, this credit should be given to Li Lan!"

"He killed three Foundation Establishment cultivators!"

He was a veteran in the workplace, so he naturally understood Gu Lianxi's intentions immediately.

The demise of three Foundation Establishment cultivators would surely have shaken headquarters, but Gu Lianxi attributed all the credit to Zeng Chenglin with a single sentence, completely burying Li Lan!

He didn't want Li Lan to gain merit!

In fact, if it were someone else who was chasing fame and fortune, Gu Lianxi's words would have truly become a calculated scheme.

After all, Li Lan had no say in the Fudaozhe Group. Gu Lianxi attributed the credit to Zeng Chenglin. As long as Zeng Chenglin acquiesced, all the credit would truly belong to Zeng Chenglin!

But Zeng Chenglin's sudden mention of Li Lan was completely unexpected by Gu Lianxi, and his gaze darkened slightly.

"Sect Leader Zeng, the main credit still goes to you. If you hadn't changed the formation and severely injured three Foundation Establishment experts, what use would Li Lan, a mere mortal, be?"

"The credit goes to you, the credit goes to him."

Zeng Chenglin wanted to say something more, but Elder Chen waved his hand and said, "There's no need to argue. I will report this matter truthfully, and the higher-ups will decide who gets the credit."

Neither of them said anything more.

"Your physical condition is indeed extremely strong. Although you have become a seed of medicine people within the Li family over the years, it has also been very beneficial to you. You can say that you have turned misfortune into blessing."

Elder Chen looked at Li Lan again, his eyes filled with admiration, and said, "Your aptitude and potential, after more than ten years of nurturing by the Li family, have far surpassed those of ordinary people."
