Liu Qian arched an eyebrow, her smartphone lighting up with message notifications. They were all coming from one person: Ye Chen.
"Long Tian, I need to reach someone. Mind if I excuse myself for a moment?" Liu Qian said.
"No problem, take your time," Long Tian nodded.
With that, Liu Qian went to the back, while Long Tian made his way to the living room.

Meanwhile, in another location...
Bam!
A single strike shattered three trees standing in a row.
A young man was seen practicing, sweat pouring down his body.
"Good, Qin Chen, you've mastered that technique quite well. It's even stronger than I anticipated," Han Yuan remarked, a smile gracing on his lips.
"It's also thanks to your guidance. I'm truly grateful to have met you, Elder Han," Qin Chen said sincerely.
"Don't mention it. My debt to the Qin family is much greater than what I've given you, Qin Chen," Han Yuan responded, smiled.
