"You can let go of me now!"
Right after leaving the Six Doors Organization building, Luo Puti shook off Chen Xiaobei who was hugging her waist.
"Honey! You can't do this to me! My heart melted when you called me your hubby just now! And now you are going to treat me like a stranger again?"
With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei hugged Luo Puti again.
"Stop acting dumb in front of me! The reason I called you hubby just now was to make Yue Junmo angry! I was just using you as a tool to make him go away! You should feel angry!" said Luo Puti in an icy tone as she stepped away from him.
"Hehe… You won't use me as a tool if I don't have a special place in your heart! How can I get angry when I know that I'm special to you?" said Chen Xiaobei cheerfully.
"Stop being so full of yourself! All the men in this world are too mean! You do not have a special place in my heart!"
"I wonder who was the one that cried for me when we were in Luo Yang? The person even wanted to die together with me!"
Luo Puti was tongue-tied, her face red.
"And I wonder who was the one that asked me to run for my life? The person was willing to stay behind to buy me some time!"
"You are so damn annoying! As a man, you shouldn't keep harping on the past!"
Embarrassed, Luo Puti was trying to act like an ice-cold queen but she somehow failed to do so.
"Alright! Let's talk about the present! Who is the one that held on tight to the flower that I gave her? I can see that she's taking really good care of it!"
"I…"
Taken aback, she suddenly realized that she placed the flower that Chen Xiaobei gave her in her breast pocket like a piece of valuable treasure. Seemingly, she was afraid that something might crush it. This little act was done unconsciously.
"Actually, I know that you have always liked me. There's only a thin barrier placed between us! Allow me to break it please!"
Smiling at Luo Puti, Chen Xiaobei started to walk toward her.
"How are you going to break it?
Feeling nervous, her face was as red as an overripe tomato.
"Did you just act dumb in front of me? You are the one that told Yue Jumo just now that you are going to do some naughty stuff with me when we are back home! Hehehe…" he said with an evil smile.
"My ass! You are just like that Yue Junmo! You are not a good man as well! Stay away from me!"
"How did Yue Junmo offend you? Judging from his kind appearance, he doesn't look like a bad guy! All he did was trying to snatch away the woman that I love from me! That is one crime that I cannot forgive!"
"I don't want to talk about him!"
"Just tell me about it! I can always help you no matter how big the problem is! It's useless that you keep it for yourself! Look at that! It's been ten years! You would have solved it if you are capable of doing so!" said Chen Xiaobei after he wiped off the evil smile on his face.
"You can't help me! And I don't want to drag you into my problem!" said Luo Puti in a slightly angry tone.
"Just cut the crap! We are now husband and wife! Can you stop saying that you don't want to drag me into your problem? People are going laugh at us if they overhear our conversation!"
Upon hearing that, Luo Puti acted in an even more ice-cold manner. She then glared at Chen Xiaobei with her soulful eyes.
"Stop glaring at me! Set aside my love for you, we have been through many life-threatening situations! Shouldn't you put your trust in me to help you?!"
Finally, her frozen heart started to melt after hearing Chen Xiaobei's respond.
'He is actually right about that! I've been through more than one perilous situation with him!'
Unconsciously, Chen Xiaobei had become her most trusted ally. She also knew that he was the only person in this world that would listen to her problem and help her.
After hesitating for some time, she decided to tell him everything.
"Five years ago, there was an elder from Mount Hua Faction who suffered from serious illness. At that time, my father was known as the successor of Nine Needles Luo! That was why he decided to take my grandpa's place to cure him! And my mom and I went with him since we had nothing to do. We saw that as our family trip."
"The first day when I arrived at Mount Hua, I got to know Yue Junmo. We were still teenagers. That was why he came to pursue me with a bold and open heart. At that time, I could be considered as an outgoing girl. So, I did not say yes to him or reject him."
"After that, we spent quite a long time staying at Mount Hua. During that period, Yue Junmo treated me really kindly. I gradually developed feelings for him. However, when I had mustered enough courage to confess to him, I saw him being intimate with another woman..."
Luo Puti suddenly paused. An ice-cold look was reflected in her eyes. Clearly, she was reminded of something sad.
"Ugh… We all have loved trash when we were young! You should be glad that you get to see his true colors before falling deeper into his trap!"
"Right! That's what I think as well! So, I did not interrupt them. After that, I ran to the top of Mount Hua and let the cold breeze calm myself down! He's just an asshole! He's not worthy for me to shed a teardrop for him! Fortunately, I still had my pride with me! But… I found out that my parents were gone when I came down from the top of the mountain…"
"I have tried to ask everyone that I know and even search the entire Mount Hua! After that, I started to call them until the battery on my cell phone was drained completely! And my grandpa did try to ask everything that he knew to help us to look for my parents… Still, we couldn't locate them. I really hate myself! And I hate that asshole! My parents would not disappear into thin air if I didn't go and look for that asshole! I shouldn't have gone to the top of the mountain to calm myself down as well!"
"I would've rather stayed with them and disappear together with them!"
Luo Puti could not help but begin to cry after telling Chen Xiaobei her problem.
"How did that happen…"
Taken aback, Chen Xiaobei suddenly realized a lot of things that he did not understand about Luo Puti previously.
Why did she hate men?
Why did she get angry every time when someone mentioned sex?
Why did she close her heart like an ice mountain?
Now, the answer was clear. All these while, she took the sadness of losing her parents with her. She blamed herself for not protecting her parents.
Why did she refuse to be married to a man from a rich family and instead joined the Six Doors Organization?
Why did she let Poseidon to control her life?
Why did she try her best to be promoted to chief inspector?
All these questions were answered as well. Clearly, she wanted to rely on the resources of Six Doors Organization to look for her parents. That was the time when Chen Xiaobei realized that this was the first time he truly understood Luo Puti.
"Puti. Relax! I know that you have buried all those in your heart for a very long time.
Chen Xiaobei brought Luo Puti into his embrace and caressed her gently.
"Now. You have me! Leave this matter to me! I will not call you my wife until I solve this matter for you!"
"Alright. You don't have to console me anymore! I think it's better for you not to get involved in my problem! I don't want to cause you trouble if something bad happens during the investigation! I have to hold on to it for quite a number of years! I will never be defeated by it!" said Luo Puti in a determined manner.
She did not even dare to tell her grandpa about the thing that she told Chen Xiaobei. Naturally, she felt slightly relieved after she shared it with someone she trusted.
"Did you come across something that is related to the disappearance of your parents? Can you stop saying that you don't want to cause trouble to me?!"
"Don't ask me about it anymore. I will never tell you."
"Why not? Do you think I'm too weak to help you?"
"To be brutally honest! The answer is yes! I did come across something terrifying! And I don't want to get you involved in it! Don't you forget that you still have your parents to take care of! Not exposing them to danger is what you should do!"
Taken aback, now Chen Xiaobei understood why his parents wished that Luo Puti could become their daughter-in-law in the future.
"Actually…. I'm not as weak as you think I am…"
"I know that you have a lot of potential with you! And someday, you are going to transform into a dragon and fly into the sky! But, I can't wait anymore! Time is running out for me! What if you are half as powerful as Chen Zhufeng? That will be really great! And you will be able to help me!"
"Huh? Chen Zhufeng? Do you know his true identity?" asked Chen Xiaobei in a shocking manner.
"Yes. He is the person put pressure on the Zhuang Family and I mentioned to you that there is a high chance that he is going to become the champion of the upcoming martial arts competition! And you told me that he is some super genius! Have you forgotten about that?"
"Ugh…"
Seeing that Luo Puti was acting all serious, Chen Xiaobei did not know whether to cry or laugh.
"Actually I am Chen Zhufeng!"
"You? Can you stop acting tough! Not even a three-year-old kid will believe something this stupid!"
"I can swear to god! I'm not trying to act tough in front of you…"
"Alright! Stop the nonsense!"
Clearly Luo Puti did not believe in Chen Xiaobei at all.
"All I got now is just some random intel… I will not do anything about it yet. So, it's useless for me to tell you now! As for the Chen Zhufeng matter. You can use your fist to prove that I'm wrong during the martial arts competition!"
"Alright! Let's wait till the martial arts competition! I will definitely give you a pleasant surprise!" said Chen Xiaobei calmly.
He even felt like laughing out loud. Luckily, Luo Puti was still trying to gather more information. That was why it was not necessary for him to rush to prove that he was Chen Zhufeng. It would be dramatic when Chen Xiaobei unveiled his true identity to Luo Puti during the martial arts competition. The ice-cold queen was about to turn into an adorable child.
After that, Chen Xiaobei told Luo Puti the purpose he came and look for her. Naturally, Luo Puti was more than willing to help him. She personally assigned Wu Tianhe to travel to Green Vine City to protect the Lan Family.
Firstly, Wu Tianhe was the deputy chief inspector of Six Doors. He would be the top choice when it came to experience, position, and combat power. Secondly, Wu Tianhe owed Chen Xiaobei a huge favor after he saved his life. In other words, he would not need to worry that Wu Tianhe would side with his enemies. Though things were about to get chaotic really soon, as long as his family was well protected – Chen Xiaobei had nothing to fear of.
*Ring*
Right after Chen Xiaobei took care of this matter, Yue Junmo started to bombard them with calls to remind them to go for the special dinner. Luo Puti did reject his calls multiple but he just would not give up calling her.
"It's your fault! Why would you say yes to him? Now, he is haunting us! What should we do now? I don't think he had good intentions when he said that he wanted to invite us over for dinner!"
"Let me talk to him since you feel disgusted when you talk to him!"
With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei took her cell phone.
"Yes! You are my hubby! So, you should do the talking! Scold him!"
Luo Puti's eyes were beaming with the light of hope. Clearly, she wished that Chen Xiaobei would scold him on her behalf.
"Hello? Young Master Yue? We will be arriving in half an hour! Don't worry! We will not miss the dinner!"
"Arriving in half an hour? Are you trying to lick his boots after knowing that he is the young master of Mount Hua Faction? You can go on your own! I'm definitely not going with you!"
"Do you think your hubby is that kind of person that will get down to lick someone's boots? I'm going to slap his face! Are you sure you don't want to come with me?"
"Slap his face? I-I think I will go with you. I'm afraid that someone will slap your face. I will be able to save your dignity if I stay by your side!"
"Hehe! Hold on! Let your hubby bring the car over here to come and get you!" said Chen Xiaobei in a joyful manner.
"Okay… Hold on! Something is not right! Just now you told me that you will not call me your wife until you help to solve the problem! Now, you are calling yourself my hubby! I don't see a difference there! Come back here and explain to me!"
...…
At Zi Ming Club.
As the private club of the Zhuang Family, they would never invite outside to come here. This place was designed for important guests of the Zhuang Family. Without Zhuang Hao's permission, one could never get in here no matter how rich the person was. In order to protect the privacy of the guest, the soundproofing system had been optimized to the best. No one would notice anything even if someone put up a fight in the room.
"Do you know why Yue Junmo wants to invite us to come here to have dinner?" asked Luo Puti.
"I know… A tad bit about it… The previous head of the Zhuang Family is now the grand elder of Mount Hua Faction!"
"Eh? This secret was kept for more than a few decades! How did you know about it?!"
"As the chief inspector of Six Doors Organization, I came to know about it when I read the historical scroll of Mount Hua Faction!"
"I have told you earlier that I'm no ordinary person! It's your loss if you don't come and look for my help!"
Actually, Chen Xiaobei came to know about it when he eavesdropped on the meeting that was being held in the Zhuang Family's mansion.
The Zhuang Family had Mount Hua Faction supporting them.
Yap Family had Mount Shu Faction supporting them.
Liu Family had Green Town Faction supporting them.
All of them were not to be trifled with. With the help of all those ancient factions, that was how they managed to become the most powerful families in Dragon City.
"Don't call yourself my hubby again! If not I'm going to beat you up!"
"Are you sure about that?" asked Chen Xiaobei with an evil smile.
"I'm sure…"
Immediately, Luo Puti put on a new face.
"Hubby! You are so nice to me!"
"Hehe! Both of you look really sweet and lovely tonight!"
Suddenly, Yue Junmo strode towards them with a hypocritical smile on his face.
"I must treat her well with all my heart! After all, Puti is such a perfect woman! I will be struck by lightning if I stop loving her!" said Chen Xiaobei with vigor.
"Hubby! You are so nice!"
Feeling warm from the bottom of her heart, Luo Puti held Chen Xiaobei's arm and slowly lay in his embrace. On the other hand, Yue Junmo's mouth twitched when he saw that the woman that he loved was having a sweet moment with Chen Xiaobei.
He then took a deep breath and tried his best to put on a smile.
"Please come on in! Everyone is here! We are just waiting for you to have dinner together."
Inside the club.
There were another four people sat inside one of the most luxurious private rooms. Two of them were Chen Xiaobei's buddies – Zhuang Bifan and Zhuang Bufan. Though Yue Junmo had a special status in Jianghu, his seniority was not as high. That was why it was inappropriate for Zhuang Hao to join them. In the end, he had to ask two of his sons to attend the dinner.
As Zhuang Bifan had been on the sick bed for quite some time, he did not know Chen Xiaobei that well. As for Zhuang Bufan, he was shaking nonstop in fear when he saw Chen Xiaobei enter the room. Some time ago, he witnessed Chen Xiaobei bring Tai Yitan to destroy the Zhuang Family's mansion entrance. And he even killed the prodigy of the Zhuang Family, Zhuang Jiuxiao, and the S-tier assassin with a single swing of his hand.
At that time, the entire Zhuang Family was left in shock and fear. Every single one of them was forced to kneel on the ground to beg for their lives. Those who were not there on that day would never be able to experience the horror brought forth by Chen Xiaobei.
"Gree… Greetings God Chen!"
Zhuang Bufan instinctively wanted to stand up and kneel before Chen Xiaobei to greet him.
"Sit back down! What the hell are you doing?"
Immediately, Zhuang Bifan kicked Zhuang Bufan's leg to signal that he should calm down. Clearly, Zhuang Lao Taijun had reminded to stay calm when they saw Chen Xiaobei. She wanted them not to lick his boots and not offend him at the same time. Since there was a Blood Descendant present in the room, he would suspect something was wrong if the two of them got too close to Chen Xiaobei.
"Master Bufan! What did you just call that kid?"
An American man with silver hair was sitting beside him. It was obvious his Mandarin was not that fluent when he spoke to Zhuang Bufan. Though this American man looked really handsome, his skin looked sickly pale. Seeing that the man had a pair of crimson eyeballs, the first name that went through Chen Xiaobei's mind was Gustav.
Chen Xiaobei knew that Blood Descendants would eventually come after him but he did not expect that it would be this soon. If his guess was right, this silver hair man must have taken the plane last night and just touched down at China not too long ago. Judging from the small details, Chen Xiaobei knew that it would not be easy for him to deal with them.
"Did he just call you God Chen?" asked Luo Puti in a curious manner.
"No idea. I think it was an honest mistake."
Seemingly, Chen Xiaobei did not want to expose his identity.
"Right! It was an honest mistake! I meant to address him as Mr. Chen, not God Chen! We work in the same entertainment industry before and I'm definitely not close to him at all!"
"Oh. So, it's just a misunderstanding. I thought the two of you were good friends!"
With a smile on his face, the silver-haired man took a look at Chen Xiaobei as his eyes reflected deep thoughts. According to the intel that all the Blood Descendants, Chen Xiaobei was just a mere human that just achieved True Nirvana stage. That was why the silver-haired man was confident that he could kill Chen Xiaobei with ease. It seemed he was planning to toy with Chen Xiaobei first before killing him.
"I see now! It's just a misunderstanding!" said Luo Puti in relief.
"What a load of bullshit! Of course this is just a misunderstanding! This kid over there is not worthy to be called God Chen! He just tainted the image of my idol! Other than my idol, no one in this world is worthy to be called God Chen!"
Suddenly, the fourth person in the room voiced out his thought. All Chen Xiaobei did was looked at him with a smile on his face.
"Who the hell are you?! Where are your manners?!" asked Luo Puti, furious.
To her, no one could act in such a rude manner toward Chen Xiaobei. She was the only one in this world could do so.
"How can you not recognize me?! And you call yourself the chief inspector of Six Doors Organization?!"
The man stood up, turned around and faced Luo Puti. One could see that the man was around 29 years old. His hair was all straightened up like needles and his eyes were glaring at then like how a tiger looked at its prey. Though his body was not muscular, he exuded a domineering aura.
"You… You are Wu Aofeng?"
Immediately, Luo Puti recognized the man that stood in front of him.
"Wu Aofeng?"
Of course, Chen Xiaobei was familiar with this name. Earlier, Luo Puti did mention to Chen Xiaobei that Wu Aofeng, Huo Yuanba, and Tai Yitan were at the same tier and they were definitely powerful enough to get second or third place in the upcoming martial arts competition. As for first place, it would definitely go to Chen Zhufeng.
"Heh! It seems like the legendary Luo Puti can finally recognize me! I was going to say that you are just a short sighted lady! Not bad! I will give you that since you recognize me right now!" said Wu Aofeng while laughing out loud.
He was the kind of person that spoke whatever that went through his mind.
"It seems like you really like to look down on women, right?!" said Luo Puti, displeased.
"Right! You are right about it! What are you going to about it?! Hit me? Hehe!"
Rendered speechless, Luo Puti did not dare to hit him. After all, she just achieved True Nirvana cultivation not too long ago. As for Wu Aofeng, he was known for his combat power at the Northwest Jianghu. Recently, he had just killed hundreds of people all by himself and three of them were elites with True Nirvana stage. Hitting Wu Aofeng would only bring trouble to herself. Upon thinking about that, Luo Puti felt really frustrated. At that moment, she wished she was more powerful to exert more pressure on him.
"Aofeng! Stop talking about killing others! After the martial arts competition, you are going to become one of the disciples of Mount Hua Faction! And we will not tolerate behavior like that! You have to know that all the disciples in my faction are gentlemen!"
"Okay. Understood."
Wu Aofeng nodded and started behaving. Upon seeing that, Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti were taken aback. They had heard that Mount Hua Faction was using the martial arts competition to recruit some of the most powerful young men in Jianghu. To their surprise, Wu Aofeng had already been recruited to their faction before the martial arts competition began.
"Since we all know each other her. Let me introduce Mr. Gustav to all of you. This is Harry Gustav, the VIP of the Zhuang Family! That is why I invited him to come over here to have dinner with us!"
The dinner finally began.
All the dishes that were served to them were cooked by some of the top chefs in Dragon City. However, the atmosphere in the room was rather awkward. Only the two brothers knew most of the people that came for the dinner. As for the others, they were not too close with each other. That was why it was hard to have a common topic to talk about.
Especially, when Yue Junmo went to toast with Luo Puti. Just as expected, Luo Puti ignored him and the atmosphere got even more awkward. Luckily, Wu Aofeng started to become talkative after drinking a few cups of alcohol. Immediately, he started to pour in different topics to the group.
"Have you heard of my idol, Chen Zhufeng? I f*cking idolize him! I heard that he went to the Zhuang Family's mansion alone and made them kneel in front of him! That is just so f*cking cool!"
Upon hearing that, everyone's face changed. The name, Chen Zhufeng was one of the most discussed people in Jianghu right now. Those who had not heard of him were not worthy to be called Jianghu folk. After hearing Wu Aofeng praised Chen Zhufeng, Chen Xiaobei had an amused look on his face.
'That's hilarious! Before I can do anything, he had already started to slap the Zhuang Family's face!'
On the other hand, Luo Puti and Harry were looking forward to hear more about Chen Zhufeng. The two brothers that came from the Zhuang Family were left embarrassed after Wu Aofeng brought up the shameful matters that their family been through recently. However they did not dare to say anything to stop Wu Aofeng. All they could do was looked at Yue Junmo helplessly.
"Aofeng! Your mouth! Please control it! You are so done if Zhuang Lao Taijun hears you talking about it!" said Yue Junmo.
"Ugh… Let's not talk about the Zhuang Family! I have received news that the Zuckerberg Carriers had gone missing mysteriously at the Indian Ocean! And my idol is the one that made them disappear!" said Wu Aofeng.
"How… How is that even possible? Carriers like that are the most fearsome war machine of the sea! How is possible that they disappeared into thin air?" said Luo Puti in astonishment and doubt.
"Six Doors is supposed to rule the Jianghu! How can you not know such big news?"
"I really have no idea… The legendary elites in Jianghu hate others checking on them! In order to prevent offending God Chen, the Six Doors has ceased all investigations on them!"
"Hehe… In China, there's a saying and it's called seeing a snake shadow in the cup. It origins from coward saw the reflection of a bow in his cup. And he thought that he was seeing the reflection on a poisonous snake – causing him to almost scare himself to death. Same goes to the God Chen that you keep on mentioning! He is just an ordinary human being! I don't understand why you guys are treating him as a demigod! All of you are no different from the guy that saw the reflection of a poisonous snake in his cup!" said Harry while looking at Chen Xiaobei with his eyes squinted.
To all the Blood Descendants, Chen Xiaobei's true identity had already exposed. The reason why Harry taunted Chen Xiaobei was to make him lose his patience. Unfortunately, he had underestimated Chen Xiaobei's state of mind. All the things that he said just now were completely ignored by Chen Xiaobei. Instead of getting angry, he continued to serve Luo Puti with more dishes.
"You know nothing! My idol is the real demigod! He alone can destroy the entire carrier fleet!" said Wu Aofeng furiously.
"He even had sex with the wife of the American president! You can go and verify it yourself if you don't trust me!"
"What a load of bullshit! You do know I can sue you for slander?"
"Don't even try to scare me! The court will not dare to do anything to me even if you sue me! Let's be practical! You are regarded as a noble in America, right? Call the first lady now! I will call you my grandpa if she picks up your call! If she doesn't pick up, all you need to do is kneel down and call me your father!"
"You…"
Harry's mouth twitched and he was so angry that his face turned red. However, he did not go and get his cell phone to call the first lady. Earlier, he was informed that the government had lost contact with Niya. Actually, it was not a big deal for him to make the call. However, things would turn ugly if he had to force himself to call Wu Aofeng his daddy.
*Giggle*
Upon seeing that, Chen Xiaobei almost burst into laughter.
One always asked what the highest level of face slapping was. And the answer was letting others do it for you and all you needed to do was just stand there and watch. Seeing that Harry was looking frustrated, Chen Xiaobei could not help but give Wu Aofeng a like.
"What now? Lost the balls to make the call? All you Americans are the same! From the surface, you look tough but you actually have no balls when it comes to the real thing!" said Wu Aofeng in a disgusted manner.
Feeling embarrassed, there was nothing Harry could do but stare at Yue Junmo helplessly.
Yue Junmo nodded in understanding and chided Wu Aofeng. "Aofeng! Stop talking! Young Master Yue! I'm not done yet! Don't you guys want to know that where the first lady is now?"
"Where? Where?"
Upon hearing that, everyone including Chen Xiaobei felt really curious.
"It's a long story! Everything begins from the president's impotence! The first lady has hungered for sex for a very long time! Until she met my idol, Chen Zhufeng! After she had a taste of my idol's glorious rocket, she could not get enough of it! It the end, she decides to become my idol's playtoy!"
*Blarrghh*
Every single man in the room almost fell off their chairs after hearing the nonsense Wu Aofeng spouted. Luo Puti was the only one that believed that it was real.
"I never thought that Chen Zhufeng is that kind of person!"
*Blarrgghh*
Chen Xiaobei almost coughed out a mouthful of warm blood to the ceiling.
'This is wrong! Wu Aofeng that bastard is just making up some ridiculous stories! How am I going to reveal my true identity when my image is tainted?'
"Why the hell are you staring at me? Look at you! You have the same surname with my idol! But, the gap between the two of you is so damn big!" said Wu Aofeng after he realized that Chen Xiaobei was staring at him.
"Mr. Wu… Sooner or later, you will lose all your friends if you continue to slap the faces of the person that you just meet!" said Chen Xiaobei in a frustrated manner.
"Heh! You know nothing! I bet you have not heard of my title before! In the Northwest, I'm given the title Face Slapping Little Tornado! Unless you are more powerful than me, I will definitely slap your face if you have done something wrong!"
From the moment Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti entered the room, Wu Aofeng had begun to slap everyone's face at least once.
"But, I have done nothing wrong!"
"Weak! That's your sin!"
"Weak?
"Are you sure you are more powerful than me?"
"Bastard! Are you trying to say that you are more powerful than me?!"
Not only Wu Aofeng was a prideful person but he also had a hot temper. Chen Xiaobei's question to him had managed to anger him. Immediately, he stood and readied to defend himself.
"I don't know how powerful you are! But, I'm pretty sure that I can defeat you easily!" said Chen Xiaobei while shrugging nonchalantly.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Early phase of True Nirvana stage. Health: 33,000. Combat power: 33,000!]
The Netherspirit Battlescouter allowed Chen Xiaobei to check on Wu Aofeng's combat power. Seemingly, he was as powerful as Chen Xiaobei. Other than combat power, Chen Xiaobei could use any of the items that he stored in his treasure chest to defeat him. A trump card was definitely not needed to deal with people like Wu Aofeng.
However, Wu Aofeng did not know about it. He then continued to holler at Chen Xiaobei.
"F*ck! I have dominated the Northwest for a very long time! And I have seen a lot of people that like to act tough in front of me! However, I have not seen anyone quite like you! You are just an immature teenager! I bet you have not even gone through puberty! How dare you claim that you can defeat me easily?!"
Clearly, Wu Aofeng was extremely furious. He exuded a Zhang Fei-like aura.
"Hehe… Mr. Wu! I thought you are the Face Slapping Little Tornado? Look at his acting-tough face! Aren't you going to land a slap on it as well?!" said Harry while licking his lips.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Early phase of True Nirvana stage. Health: 33,000. Combat power: 33,000!]
After taking a glance at Harry Gustav, Chen Xiaobei got to know that his combat power was similar to Wu Aofeng. In other words, he was worthy to become a grand duke in a Blood Descendant family. Still, Chen Xiaobei was not bothered by them at all. Clearly, he knew that he would be able to defeat them even if the two of them decided to attack him at the same time.
"Cut the crap! I, Face Slapping Little Tornado is not to be trifled with! I will slap his face no matter what!"
Considering that Wu Aofeng was hot-tempered by nature, he exploded after Harry taunted him. Immediately, he strode toward Chen Xiaobei like a maniac. Upon seeing that, most of the people in the room were anticipating a good fight.
Harry, Zhuang Bifan, and Zhuang Bufan were happy that Wu Aofeng volunteered to fight with Chen Xiaobei. When the two of them fought, they would be able to know how powerful Chen Xiaobei was. As for Yue Junmo, he just wanted to watch Chen Xiaobei being crippled by Wu Aofeng.
"Wu Aofeng! What the hell are you trying to do?!"
Suddenly, Luo Puti stood in front of Chen Xiaobei to protect him.
"Hmph! That bastard claimed that he can defeat me with ease! Let me fight with him! I want to know that the weak one should just stay at the corner of the wall and shut the hell up! Acting tough in front of me will definitely be struck by lightning!"
"You are bullying him! My hubby has not even achieved True Nirvana cultivation! How is he going to fight with you?!"
In a determined manner, Luo Puti would not quit protecting Chen Xiaobei if he threatened her. Feeling touch, Chen Xiaobei actually wanted to explain himself.
"Puti, I have actually achieved…"
Before he could finish his sentence, Wu Aofeng interrupted him.
"What? Son of a bitch! You have not even achieved True Nirvana cultivation?! How dare you claim that you can defeat me easily! The way you act tough is way too much for me to handle!"
"What? God Ch.. Mr. Chen has not achieved True Nirvana cultivation?!"
Taken aback, a shocking look could be seen on Zhuang Bufan's and Zhuang Bifan's face. Recalling their prestigious family being pressured by Chen Xiaobei, they found it extremely hard to believe.
"Puti, I remember you told that you are always fond of powerful elites! Why did you choose to stick with this weak ass shit?!" asked Yue Junmo in a mocking manner.
"Xiaobei is not a weak ass shit! Sooner or later, he will stand on top of the food chain and strike all of you down! By that time, all of you will fear and respect him from the bottom of your hearts!" said Luo Puti.
"Hahaha! I think this is the funniest joke that I ever heard!" said Yue Junmo while laughing out loud.
"Just laugh all you want now! I believe you will cry your heart out really soon!"
After that, Luo Puti held Chen Xiaobei's hand and said, "Xiaobei! Let's go!"
"Stand right there! I did not permit the two of you to leave this place!" said Wu Aofeng with an evil smile.
Feeling nervous, Luo Puti knew that her combat was only 30,000. It was not possible for her to defeat Wu Aofeng.
"Aofeng! Hold your horse!"
Yue Junmo shouted at Wu Aofeng. He then turned around to look at Luo Puti.
"Puti, considering that we are old friends, I'm giving you a chance! Ditch that kid and come back to me! I will ask Aofeng to spare his life! If not, Aofeng's wrath will definitely destroy him!"
"Yue Junmo! Stop pressuring us!" exclaimed Luo Puti.
Unfortunately, there was nothing she could do about it.
"Listen to what you just said! I have given you a chance! Now, it's up to you to decide his fate!"
Smiling at Luo Puti, he then opened his arms to wait for Luo Puti to fall into his embrace. Left in dilemma, he knew that the both of them would never be able to leave this room if she did not say yes to Yue Junmo's demand. Now, she felt regret for attending this dinner. As the last resort, she could actually say yes to Yue Junmo to let Chen Xiaobei leave the room first. After that, she could always figure out something to get away from Yue Junmo.
To her, this was the only way to ensure Chen Xiaobei could live to see tomorrow. As for herself, she did not really think too much about it.
"Pumpkin! Don't you worry! I'm here to slap their faces! They should be afraid of us!"
All of a sudden, Chen Xiaobei took a step forward and dashed at Wu Aofeng.
*Swoosh*
A fist landed on Wu Aofeng's face.
"Xiaobei! Stop angering him!"
Clearly, Luo Puti was not happy that Chen Xiaobei landed a pre-emptive strike at Wu Aofeng while she was figuring out a way to solve the problem. Judging from Wu Aofeng's personality, he would never show any mercy to Chen Xiaobei since he struck him first.
"You have a death wish!"
As expected, Wu Aofeng shouted furiously and charged at Chen Xiaobei as well.
"It's not possible for you to defeat an elite with True Nirvana Cultivation! Idiot! You are going to die since you take the initiative to attack me!"
Upon seeing that, Yue Junmo and Harry laughed at the same time. To them, Chen Xiaobei was like an egg tackling a stone.
"The truth is about to be unveiled! This punch will determine whether Chen Xiaobei is a demigod or not!"
Filled with anticipation, Zhuang Bufan and Zhuang Bifan had their eyes wide opened and focused on Chen Xiaobei.
"No!"
The second the two fists collided, Luo Puti could not help but scream out loud. One could see that her tears were on the verge coming out from her eyes.
*Boom!*
The loud noise shaken everyone in the room. To their surprise, Wu Aofeng was being sent flying by the force! And Chen Xiaobei was still standing there, unharmed.
"Luo… Luo… Luo Puti… You set me up!"
Wu Aofeng's back was stuck in the wall and blood was coming out from his mouth when he talked.
"I… I did not…"
Taken aback, Luo Puti did not know how to respond to it.
"This kid's cultivation is exactly the same as mine! How dare you tell me that he has not achieved True Nirvana Cultivation? You just f*cking set me up!"
Glaring at Luo Puti furiously, it was as if he wanted to eat her alive. During the fight just now, Wu Aofeng and Chen Xiaobei swung their fists at each other at the same time. It was an iron rule that elites with True Nirvana cultivation could defeat anyone below it! Since Luo Puti told Wu Aofeng that Chen Xiaobei had not achieved True Nirvana stage, he ended up at using only 70% of his strength and zero True Kang.
On the other hand, Chen Xiaobei came up with all his strength and he even used to True Kang to increase the power of his attack. With his 33,000 combat power, Wu Aofeng would surely be defeated with ease since he had no True Kang on him. That was why Chen Xiaobei managed to send him flying away with only one punch and even cause serious injuries on him.
Feeling frustrated, he could not understand why would he fall into Luo Puti's trap.
"I… I have no idea about it as well!"
Looking innocent, Luo Puyi was just as shocked as Wu Aofeng. To be honest, she had never thought that Chen Xiaobei had achieved True Nirvana cultivation when she met up with him recently. She could not understand how Chen Xiaobei achieved True Nirvana cultivation in just a few days! And he even possessed the same combat power as Wu Aofeng.
This was truly unbelievable for her. To her, now Chen Xiaobei was a power-filled monster.
"Pumpkin! See! I told you that your hubby will never disappoint you!"
With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei gently rubbed Luo Puti's nose.
"Why did you tell me earlier that you had achieved True Nirvana cultivation?! I was so worried about you just now!" asked Luo Puti in a shocking manner.
"I wanted to tell you about it but you did not give me an opportunity to do so! However, I think it's a good thing that I did not get to tell you about it. If not, the infamous Face Slapping Little Tornado would be defeated by me with only a single punch! Hehehe!" said Chen Xiaobei with an evil smile while shrugging.
It was true that if Luo Puti did not accidentally set Wu Aofeng up, it would be really hard to defeat him with only a single hit. After all, Chen Xiaobei had only 30,000 combat power. The reason why he could boost his combat power to 33,000 was because he increased his health to 33,000 recently. And with the help of Primordial Witch King Combat Enhancement Training Manual, he managed to make himself become as powerful as Wu Aofeng.
If they fought for real, the chances of Chen Xiaobei defeating him was only 50/50. This was why Chen Xiaobei wanted to gather as many Spiritual Stones as possible. Once he boosted his health to the highest point, he could easily come up with 39,000 combat power! With that, Chen Xiaobei could defeat all the other contestants in the upcoming martial arts competition confidently.
"Little Tornado, are you going yield to me?!" asked Chen Xiaobei in a joyful manner.
"I…"
Seemingly, Wu Aofeng hesitated about it.
"Aofeng! It's just a minor injury! Stand up and fight again! That kid just set you up! You are not worthy to be called Face Slapping Little Tornado if you don't avenge yourself!" said Yue Junmo angrily.
"Mr. Wu! You are known as the martial arts prodigy at Northwest Jianghu! You are going to slap your own face and the face of Northwest Jianghu if you just give up like that!" said Harry with his eyes narrowed.
These two sons of bitches were trying to worsen the situation by taunting Wu Aofeng to fight with Chen Xiaobei till death.
"Bro…"
"What do you think is happening to God Chen? How is possible for a demigod not achieving True Nirvana cultivation?!" whispered Zhuang Bufan, frowned.
"I have no idea as well… I don't see God Chen channeling his True Kang to his attack when he fought Wu Aofeng just now! I think he might be trying to fool us! Our great grandma did tell us that a demigod sees this world as his playground! We can never guess his next step no matter what. The best thing we can do right now is to avoid offending him before knowing the final result!"
"Alright. I will bear this in mind… Let's see if Wu Aofeng is bold enough to continue the fight with him…"
Gulping, Zhuang Bufan was drenched in fear.
"I'm not going to yield but I won't fight you anymore!"
Wu Aofeng gave Chen Xiaobei a firm reply after wiping the blood at the corner of his mouth.
"Not going to fight with him anymore? Why? You still can fight! Wu Aofeng! I order you to finish the fight with him!" said Yue Junmo in a furious manner.
"I just said that I will not fight with him anymore!"
Wu Aofeng shook his head and made up his mind. Upon hearing that, Harry, Zhuang Bifan, and Zhuang Bufan were taken aback.
Why would Wu Aofeng refuse to fight with Chen Xiaobei when he was capable of doing so?
Could it be he was afraid of Chen Xiaobei?
Maybe Chen Xiaobei was hiding a trump card from them?
Considering that Yue Junmo had not seen the information about Chen Xiaobei before, he had no idea that Chen Xiaobei was a demigod to them.
He then continued to threaten Wu Aofeng, "Wu Aofeng! Mount Hua Faction will never take in a coward like you! I will not take you in if you still refuse to fight with him!"
"Just do whatever you like! Following you around would only restrict my freedom! I was going to tell you that I'm not going to join your faction even if you did not reject my application! Bye!"
Considering that Wu Aofeng was a hot-tempered guy, he did not even look back when he left the place.
"You…"
Yue Junmo was furious. In Jianghu, there were numerous people begging to join an ancient faction! To his surprise, he never expected that Wu Aofeng would decline to join Mount Hua Faction. That was literally a face slapping moment for Yue Junmo. Especially when Luo Puti was present, he felt even more embarrassed when Wu Aofeng rejected him.
Feeling angry, Yue Junmo wished that he could charge at him and destroy him on the spot. And he was definitely more than capable to do so. Judging from his despicable personality, Yue Junmo would destroy him if there were no people around him. If others saw him killing Wu Aofeng, the reputation of Mount Hua Faction would definitely be tainted. Also, the martial art competition was coming soon, it was best for him not to do anything rash right now.
With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei started to feel that Wu Aofeng was actually quite an interesting person.
"Hubby, let's leave this place as well! I will vomit if I stay here for another minute!"
Holding onto Chen Xiaobei's hand, Luo Puti wanted to take this opportunity to leave this evil place as soon as possible. Chen Xiaobei would definitely be killed even if he was as powerful as Wu Aofeng since there were two powerful elites sitting in the room.
"Okay. I want to leave as well. But I'm afraid that somebody might not agree to it!"
Chen Xiaobei glared at Yue Junmo and Harry.
"You are right! Initially, you are free to leave this place! Now, Luo Puti and you have to stay here!" said Yue Junmo with a furious look.
"Shit!"
The thing that Luo Puti worried and feared the most finally happened. The reason why Yue Junmo was willing to let Wu Aofeng go was to protect the reputation of Mount Hua Faction. He would not be able to attend the martial arts competition if he was killed. Once others knew about it, no one would dare to join Mount Hua Faction anymore. As for Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti, Yue Junmo knew that he could do whatever he wanted to them. There was no reason for him to let them live as well.
To Luo Puti, she knew that it was impossible for the two of them to defeat Yue Junmo. This conflict would definitely end in failure for them.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Later phase of True Nirvana stage. Health: 45,000. Combat power: 45,000!]
After scanning him with Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei could not help but frown. Now, he knew why Yue Junmo was crowned as the young master of Mount Hua Faction. An ancient faction like this was a hundred times more powerful and resourceful than Tidal Faction and Wrath Wave Faction. Filthy rich second generation young men like Zhuang Bufan and Zhuang Bifan could never be on the same caliber as them. Though Yue Junmo was extremely powerful, Chen Xiaobei was not afraid of him at all. He would not have brought Luo Puti to come here if he did not have a plan with him.
"Puti, don't worry! I will protect you no matter what!" said Chen Xiaobei casually.
"How can I not worry?! Who is going to protect me if you are killed?!"
After all, she could only see how powerful the enemies were. Chen Xiaobei's true power and trump cards were still hidden from her – same went to Yue Junmo.
"Bastard! You know you are going to die soon, right? Stop acting tough in front of me! I would really love to see how the hell you are going to protect Luo Puti when you are in deep shit!"
*Swoosh*
Right after Yue Junmo finished talking, a silver True Kang emerged from his hand – looking like a laser saber that could cut anything into half!
"Damn! So, this is the true power of Young Master Yue! I'm really impressed that he was this powerful as such a young age! I have a small favor to ask. I hope that you can spare his life. To be honest, he is actually pretty important to our Gustav Family!" said Harry with an evil smile.
"I can spare his life but Gustav Family is going to owe me a favor!"
"No problem!"
"In the future, if you are going to travel to America, just let me know! The Gustav Family will do whatever it takes to help you!"
"Great! Deal! Hahaha…"
Yue Junmo and Harry looked at each other and laughed out loud. To them, Chen Xiaobei would sure be defeated seconds later. At that moment, he was no different from their prisoner.
"Bro! Yue Junmo is going to deal with this bastard himself! This time we will know that whether God Chen is the real deal!" said Zhuang Bufan in a soft tone.
"Okay. Let's pay close attention to it! Once Yue Junmo is serious, not even a hundred Wu Aofeng can defeat him! Soon, we will be able to know the true identity of that kid!" said Zhuang Bifan while nodding.
"Bastard! Are you going to kneel and beg for your life? If you kneel down and give me back my Puti, I will reward you with a quick resolution! I will only destroy your cultivation! If you refuse to do so, I will let Harry take care of you! By that time, you can enjoy all kinds of torture from him!"
"I'm not going to do what you tell me! And there's nothing you can do about it!"
"You…"
Upon hearing that, everyone including Luo Puti was taken aback.
'Are there something wrong with that kid?! Why is he not begging for his life in this life-threatening circumstance?! Not only that! He even taunted Yue Junmo! Clearly, he has a death wish!'
"Harry! Do you mind bringing back a heavily-injured dog back to America with you?" asked Yue Junmo gloomily.
"Of course, I don't mind! As long as he's still breathing, I'm fine with that!"
With a smile on his face, Harry took a look at Chen Xiaobei.
"Kid! Do you know how one can carve flower on flesh? This kind of sword skill originated from Mount Hua Faction and it is famous for its surreal details! Those who masters this skill can even make all kind of wounds with fancy design on their enemies! I can even carve some fancy window design on your skin! This kind of killing is pretty similar to dismembering one's body! However, it's definitely more elegant and interesting! And it requires a very skilful sword art to be able to achieve it! There is no way for ordinary human being to do it! Consider yourself lucky for meeting me today!"
Upon hearing that, Luo Puti's face turned pale immediately. She wanted to protect Chen Xiaobei but it was meaningless. On the other hand, a series of mocking smiles could be seen on Harry's, Zhuang Bufan's, and Zhuang Bifan's faces. The three of them were not exactly Mr. Good Guys. They were intrigued when they heard the fancy torture method from Yue Junmo.
"Hehe… It does sound really interesting. However, I don't think you will have the chance to use it on me!" said Chen Xiaobei with a calm smile.
"I don't have chance to use it on you? Are you out of your mind?! I'm going to carve something fancy on your skin right now!"
Feeling extremely furious, Yue Junmo charged at Chen Xiaobei without any hesitation.
"Puti, let's go!"
Completely ignored Yue Junmo, Chen Xiaobei held on tight to Luo Puti's hand and prepared to leave the place.
"We are going to leave this place? How is that even possible?" said Luo Puti, taken aback.
"I was right! Though Wu Aofeng has a bad temper, he is still a Jianghu elite that will not betray the absolute code of Jianghu!" said Chen Xiaobei with a smile.
It seemed like he had figured something out.
*Boom!*
Before he could finish his sentence, the door was kicked open by someone.
"Wu Aofeng? You… What are you trying to do?"
Everyone in the room was shocked when they saw Wu Aofeng standing at the door. They could see that he was holding two gas tanks in his hands.
*Swoosh*
*Swoosh*
Without saying anything, Wu Aofeng tossed them into the room.
*Bop!*
*Bop!*
The two gas tanks cracked open when they landed on the floor – leaving the gas flooded the room instantaneously.
"Mr. Chen! Let's go!"
Wu Aofeng tossed a lit lighter into the room and ran away from where he stood as fast as possible. On the other hand, Chen Xioabei and Luo Puti had already stood up and prepared to run out from the room as well.
"This… Motherf*cker…"
Before the remaining four people in the room could realize what was going on, a huge explosion was triggered.
*Boom!*
The flame devoured the entire room. Following by that, roof and wall started to crumble and collapsed on them.
"Damn! Little Tornado! That was quite a great surprise attack!"
Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti were taken aback when they turned back and saw the fire.
"Your ass! From this moment onwards, I don't owe you anything anymore!"
*Cough…*
Wu Aofeng glared at Chen Xiaobei. He then started to cough out blood again.
"I think you still owe me something! Come with me! Let me heal you!"
Taken aback, Luo Puti did not know when Wu Aofeng owed Chen Xiaobei a favor.
"What the hell is going on here? Do you know each other?" Luo Puti could not help but ask as they left the clubhouse.
"Nope. It's our first time meeting each other." Chen Xiaobei shrugged as he buried his hands his pockets. He was actually trying to take out a bottle of Hundred Herbs Potion from his Infinite Space Ring to pass it to Wu Aofeng.
"What actually happened back there?"
Luo Puti would not let it go. Clearly, she was curious about it.
"During the fight, Mr. Chen used True Kang against me but he withheld his strength… If he had not done so, I would have either died or become a cripple!" Wu Aofeng said in a solemn tone, "I don't like to owe anyone anything – that is why I saved the both of you! I don't want to see either of you again!"
He then waved his large hands, turned around and walked away, without a care in the world.
Luo Puti looked at Chen Xiaobei in disbelief and asked, "True Kang? Did you really use True Kang just now?"
Chen Xiaobei merely smiled at her and said nothing.
He did, in fact, used True Kang during the fight. However, his True Kang is very special. It was invisible. Considering that Wu Aofeng was defenseless just now, Chen Xiaobei could actually transform his True Kang into a sword. And Wu Aofeng would definitely be killed within seconds. However, Chen Xiaobei chose not to do so. Instead, he just used his normal True Kang to send him flying. That was how Chen Xiaobei showed mercy to Wu Aofeng. Because of that, Wu Aofeng said no to Yue Junmo's order. Seemingly, he would rather not join Mount Hua Faction than engaging in a fight with Chen Xiaobei again.
In return (for having his life spared), Wu Aofeng brought two large gas tank from the kitchen to save Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti.
Admittedly, even though Wu Aofeng was a man with a bad-temper, he was also a man that stuck to the code of brotherhood. Knowing that Chen Xiaobei did not kill him, he would definitely return Chen Xiaobei's favor. As compared to the four people in the room, they would not hesitate to kill him even if Chen Xiaobei was willing to show mercy to them. And that was Chen Xiaobei liked Wu Aofeng.
"Don't think too much. I'll send you back."
Without having explained the entire situation, he sent her home.
As long as they were away from the enemy's turf, their enemies would not dare to cause too big a scene.
After all, this was Dragon City – the heart of China! The security of this area was a top priority of the government!
Even the Mount Hua Faction would not dare do anything to compromise it!
This was true for every country. Both government and hidden forces coexist. But was the government the ruling party? Frankly speaking, it was because the government had armies and weapons! No matter how strong the hidden forces are, they could never stand against the blow of a heavily armed regiment. Not even the demigod could take a hit from a nuclear bomb. Almost all the factions and ancient factions in Jianghu had their own set of rules but they still had to obey the government no matter how powerful they were.
This rang true in every nation, in each of the past dynasties.
Or else, the place of the kings and presidents would already have been overtaken by those ancient factions.
Once he made sure that Luo Puti was safe in her home only did Chen Xiaobei leave with a peace of mind. However, he did not return to Bei Xuan Faction. Instead, he made a U-turn and sped toward the clubhouse.
The gas tanks could not have killed those four idiots.
Chen Xiaobei would have to deal with them personally.
***
*Klak*
*Boom!*
Suddenly, shattered stones burst out from the ruins. Yue Juemo and Harry were unharmed because the two of them used True Kang to protect themselves when the gas tanks exploded. Judging from the toughness of their True Kang armor, the explosion was definitely not powerful enough to hurt either one of them.
"Chen Xiaobei! Wu Aofeng! I'm going to kill the two of you!"
Yue Junmo looked a demon that was about to devour anyone in sight. Intense murderous intent was reflected from his eyes. As the young master of Mount Hua Faction, he had never fallen into such terrible state. Upon thinking about being slapped by someone that was weaker than him in front of the woman that he loved, Yue Junmo could not help but cough out a mouthful of warm blood.
"Young Master Yue. Are you going to let them go?!" said Harry with a gloomy look.
"My ass! I will never let them live! I know that Wu Aofeng is staying at a villa that is located at the outskirts! I'm pretty sure he would go back to pack his stuff! Let's move now and capture that son of a bitch! Use him to threaten Chen Xiaobei!"
"Good idea! Let's go now!"
Harry nodded in excitement. The of them then walked out from the clubhouse.
*Klak*
*Klak*
*Klak*
On the other hand, Zhang Bufan and Zhuang Bifan had to come up with a great deal of strength to climb out from the shattered rock that was lying on top of them. Without the protection from True Kang, the two of them were covered in dust and their torn shirts made them look like beggars. Fortunately, Zhuang Bifan had 20,000 combat power. During the life and death situation, he used some of his True Qi to neutralize some of the explosive power.
"Brother, what about the both of us? Should we go with them?" asked Zhuang Bufan in fear.
"We have to go! Come on! We have not confirmed the true identity of that kid! We cannot give up right now!"
When the two of them drove away from the clubhouse, Chen Xiaobei was there as well. He then followed the two of them to the outskirts of this area.
***
Considering that Wu Aofeng was an extremely wealthy man, he booked the entire villa once he arrived at Dragon City. He was planning to stay until the martial art competition ended.
Though he had a temper, he was not dumb. He had wronged Yue Junmo. There was no way he could continue to live here.
He then headed back to his room and packed and planned to move to the bustling city. In crowded areas like that, Yue Junmo would not be able to do as he pleased.
But just as he had arrived at the entrance of the villa, Wu Aofeng was stopped in his tracks.
The enemy was faster than he had expected them to be. There were five SUVs blocking the entrance of the villa. And around thirty people came down from the SUVs.
Clearly, all of them were the Blood Descendants that came with Harry. Judging from their presence, one could see that their combat power was definitely not low. They could easily defeat 3,000 to 4,000 low-life thugs.
"Wu Aofeng! Where do you think you're going?"
Yue Junmo and Harry stepped out of the car and said menacingly, "Weren't you acting all high and mighty when you were throwing the tank? And look at you now trying to run away with your tail between your legs."
"It looks like you don't plan to let me off the hook!" Wu Aofeng's face darkened – his heart filled with dismay.
"Hah! You hit my face and expect me to let you just walk away?"
Yue Junmo looked at him menacingly and said, "You were already a dead man from the moment you rejected me!"
*Bam!*
Wu Aofeng threw his luggage on the floor and glared at them.
"Come on! I will never beg for my life even though I can't defeat you! Be a man! Use your fist to kill me!"
Knowing that he was going to be defeated by Yue Junmo, he could never allow himself to surrender to his enemies. He would rather die fighting them.
"You? Do you really think you can stop my attack?! This must be a joke!" said Yue Junmo in disdain.
"Young Master Yue! This garbage is not worthy enough to fight with you! Should I help you to kill him? It can prevent others from spreading bad rumors about you!" said Harry with his eyes narrowed.
Seeing that Wu Aofeng was injured and his combat power was similar to his, Harry was confident enough that he could take him down with ease. Truth to be told, he actually wanted to treat this favor as a gift.
"Alright! It will be great if Mr. Harry is willing to do me this favor! After that, I will help you to capture that son of a bitch as well!" said Yue Junmo while nodding his head.
Wu Aofeng after all used to be a semi-recruited Mount Hua Faction's disciple. Yue Junmo's reputation would definitely be tainted if others knew that he was the one that killed Wu Aofeng. Since Harry was willing to do his dirty work, Yue Junmo was very pleased by it.
"Mr. Wu! Please die now!"
The form of his body changed completely right after he let out a loud shout. His hair turned into white, wings were coming out from his back, and both of his eyes changed to silver as well. This monstrous look was the final form of the grand duke of Blood Descendant! Just like a Spiritual Beast, its combat power was boosted greatly as compared to when he was still in human form.
*Swoop!*
With his wings spread, Harry flew to Wu Aofeng at lightning speed.
"Berserk, Aofeng!"
Wu Aofeng was no ordinary elite as well. With a loud shout, both of his fists were embedded with bronze True Kang. And his True Kang turned into two giant sabers right after that. He too charged at Harry fearlessly.
*Shinng*
The moment their True Kang weapons collided into each other, a loud metal clashing sound could be heard – like two divine weapons crossing paths.
*Shinng*
*Shinng*
*Shinng*
Harry would use his claw to fight back when Wu Aofeng swung his saber at him. Their fighting speed was so fast that there were around ten attacks being thrown at each other every second!
"What the fuck… Are they even human?"
Without blinking, Zhuang Bufan was trying to follow with their movement speed but he failed to do so.
"They are so damn powerful… I don't think I can get to their level even if I train for another ten years!"
On the other hand, Zhuang Bifan could not move his eyes away from them as well. Though he had 20,000 combat power, his eyes and mind still could not follow up with their movement speed. Having to imagine that if he was the one fighting with either one of them, he would be decapitated within seconds.
"This is weird! I thought you suffered quite heavy injuries just now? Why are you not weakened?" asked Harry, baffled.
Initially, he wanted to finish the battle quick and easy. To his surprise, he could only gain slight upper hand after transforming into his true form. Seemingly, Wu Aofeng was completely healed from his injuries. His combat strength was still in tip-top condition. And with the combination of his skillful way of wielding his saber, it did not look like he was going to be defeated by Harry anytime soon. Clearly, this battle was not as easy as Harry thought it would be. A small mistake could cause him to lose in this battle instantaneously.
"Someone gifted me a bottle of potion! All my wounds are healed now! Don't even dream of taking advantage of me! Dream on!"
With a smile on his face, Wu Aofeng adjusted the strength that he exerted onto the sabers.
"Penetrate the Sun! Aofeng!"
Suddenly, the two True Kang sabers in Wu Aofeng's hands lit up. It was as if some magical attributes were added to it.
*Shinng!*
*Shinng!*
With lightning speed, two sabers struck Harry's chest.
"Ah…"
Harry whimpered and he immediately flew around ten meters away from Wu Aofeng. One could see that there was still True Kang protecting his body. However, finger-sized wounds appeared on both sides of Harry's chest. And blood even started to pour out from it.
"Damn! Wu Aofeng's skill manage to penetrate Harry's True Kang!" exclaimed Zhuang Bifan.
"Master Harry! Are you okay? Master Harry…"
All thirty Blood Descendants around him were getting really nervous. They even started to load their long bows with arrows and aimed at Wu Aofeng.
"Don't waste my time! Just shoot him!"
Harry placed both of his hands on his chest and started to scream like a woman that was being molested by a man. To others, he looked really funny. Though the wounds on his body was not lethal, it was no different from slapping his face for two times!
*Swoosh*
*Swoosh*
*Swoosh*
Seconds later, a rain of arrows was being unleashed at Wu Aofeng.
*Shinng!*
*Shinng!*
*Shinng!*
Having to protect himself with True Kang armor, Wu Aofeng started to use his sabers to deflect all the arrows that were shot at him. The rain of arrows might look harmless to Wu Aofeng. The truth was every arrow that he deflected would consume a small portion of his True Qi! Sooner or later, he would definitely be killed when his True Qi was all gone!
Still, Yue Junmo was not patient enough to wait for Wu Aofeng to die slowly.
*Swoop*
Silently, Yue Junmo dashed to the back to Wu Aofeng. He then formed a long silver sword with his True Kang. Like a venomous snake, he was just waiting for the right time to slit his throat.
*Shinng!*
*Shinng!*
*Shinng!*
Wu Aofeng had to divert all his attention to deflect all the arrows that were being shot at him. Seemingly, he did not notice that Yue Junmo was going to give him a surprise attack.
"Wu Aofeng! Die now!"
Yue Junmo had paid full attention to Wu Aofeng's movement. Seeing that Wu Aofeng's let his guard down for a short moment, Yue Junmo exert all his strength to his hand and prepared to land a lethal attack on him.
"Shit!"
Wu Aofeng's facial expression changed when he heard the sound. However, the sneak attack was too fast for him to do anything about it. At the same time, everyone had their attention diverted to Yue Junmo. Seconds later, all of them were taken aback.
*Slap!*
A loud and hard slap landed on Yue Junmo's face. Someone dashed to him and landed a slap on him that was powerful enough to send him flying. The 45,000 combat power young master of Mount Hua Faction had just rolled on the ground for a couple of times! This was definitely an embarrassing moment for him.
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he did not even get to see the identity of the attacker before he passed out.
While coveting gains ahead, one should be aware of the danger behind.
"Why… Why are you here?"
At that moment, everyone was staring at the person in a shocking manner. It was as if they saw a spirit pass them by. To be exact, they were actually staring at the person's palm. The reason why Yue Junmo passed out was because of the palm that landed on his face. They could see that the person's palm was surrounded with golden aura. There were pieces and pieces of scales formed on the skin – looking like an ancient dragon claw. A primordial void land presence was emanating out from it.
This person was none other than Chen Xiaobei. And he just used the skill called Witch Dragon's Nine Transformation to transform his hand into dragon claw. All these while, he was actually following behind the crowd in a stealthy manner. When he saw that the crowd was attacking Wu Aofeng, he then started to make preparations for the upcoming fight.
Firstly, he put on the Nightstalker outfit and snuck up to Yue Junmo's back. After that, he quickly consumed 100 Spiritual Stones to fill up his Dantian. However, the amount of Spiritual Qi was too little for Chen Xiaobei's Witch Dragon Blood to come up with 70,000 combat power. The maximum combat power that he could come up with this time was 45,000 combat power. And it lasted shorter as well. That was why it was best for Chen Xiaobei not to drag the battle. Instead, he had to look for a golden opportunity to defeat Yue Junmo with one single hit.
The moment Yue Junmo placed all his attention on Wu Aofeng, Chen Xiaobei unleashed all the Spiritual Qi within his body to activate the Witch Dragon's Nine Transformations. At that split second, Chen Xiaobei focused all his 45,000 combat power on his palm and landed a surprised slap on Yue Junmo's face while he was defenseless. Of course, this was Chen Xiaobei's deepest secret. He would never explain to anyone about it.
"I can hold on for another three seconds… Using Witch Dragon's Nine Transformations is no different from burning money…"
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei charged forward at lightning speed.
"However, I think three seconds are more than enough for me!"
"What three seconds?!"
Everyone around him was taken aback.
"Wind!"
The Witch Dragon's blood was boiling inside Chen Xiaobei's body – allowing to come up with the movement speed that was equivalent to 45,000 combat power! All the people around him could only hear him moving around. None of their pairs of eyes could keep up with his movement speed.
"Oh god! Are we dreaming?!"
When Chen Xiaobei finally stopped moving, everyone quickly landed their focus on him. Before they could recover from the shock that they experienced earlier, something even more astonishing was presented in front of them.
"How… How is this even possible?"
With his eyes wide opened, Harry's silver pupils slowly reducing to the size of a needlepoint. Seemingly, he was still trying to figure out what just happened to him. And one could see that he was having a hard to speak properly. There was blood coming from his mouth every time he tried to say something. Shaking involuntarily, it seemed like he was going to pass out really soon.
"Eh? Why can't I find the Star of David from your heart?" asked Chen Xiaobei in a calmed manner.
Before Harry could realize it, Chen Xiaobei had already used his dragon claw to penetrate Harry's chest. His 45,000 combat power rendered Harry defenseless in front of him. His True Kang armor was instantly crushed by Chen Xiaobei. Knowing that there was no Star of David inside Harry's heart, Chen Xiaobei immediately crushed his heart with his dragon claw.
"You should just die since I can't find the Star of David inside your heart!"
Following that, Chen Xioabei took out his hand from Harry's chest. Everyone could see that the golden aura and dragon scales were gone – transforming back to an ordinary human's hand. At the same time, Harry fell on the ground while the open wound from his chest kept on gushing out with blood and organ pieces. It was definitely a horrifying scene for one to witness.
"Master… Master Harry is dead!"
"Master Harry is known as the prodigy of the family! And he is a grand duke as well! He was just killed by that kid… With only one single hit!"
"Oh god… What kind of monster is he? How did he acquire such terrifying strength?!"
All thirty Blood Descendants were almost scared to death.
"Mr… Mr. Chen… How high is your combat power?"
Standing from far, Wu Aofeng was left in a shocking state. He could not help but keep on gulping. Seeing that Harry that was as powerful as he was being killed in one hit and the extremely powerful Yue Junmo passed out after Chen Xiaobei landed a slap on him, Wu Aofeng simple could not imagine the combat power that Chen Xioabei had.
Was Chen Xiaobei just toying with him when they first fought each other?
And now Chen Xiaobei finally decided to unveil his true strength?
Or maybe Chen Xiaobei was just toying with the two of them – where he did not showcase his true combat power.
The more Wu Aofeng thought about it, the more he felt that Chen Xiaobei was absolutely unpredictable.
"You are asking too many questions… I'm gonna leave the rest of these garbage to you…. Do you think you will have a problem dealing with them?"
"Of course not! I notice they were actually enjoying themselves when they attacked me with bows and arrows just now! It's time for me, the Little Tornado to beat the shit out of them!"
Wu Aofeng was the kind of man that liked to deal with matters in hand as quickly as possible. He would never slack on it. With a clear goal in his mind, he then charged at all thirty Blood Descendants. He could easily kill all of them with his True Nirvana cultivation. The moment he came into contact with them, an agonizing scream could be heard echoing in the air – like a tiger walking into a flock of lambs.
*Swoosh*
Ignoring him, Chen Xiaobei swung his hand and absorb Harry's blood essence and soul into his palm. To be exact, he was actually feeding his Chaos Blood Sword. It had grown a lot since Chen Xiaobei killed twelve Silver-Winged Myrmidons and three hundred Iron-Winged Myrmidons. A total of two hundred Blood Descendants' blood essence and souls were being fed to the Chaos Blood Sword.
The next time Chen Xiaobei used it to attack his enemies, it could definitely deliver more destructive power. Since he was not in need of merit points, letting Chaos Blood Sword to absorb Harry's blood essence and soul would definitely make it grow even stronger!
After all, activating the Witch Dragon Blood would require a huge amount of Spiritual Qi. That was why the Chaos Blood Sword was his trump card when he ran out of Spiritual Qi. The more power stored within the Chaos Blood Sword, the more fatal the attack would be.
Following that, Chen Xiaobei walked to Yue Junmo after he settled all the things that he needed to do. He could actually kill Yue Junmo if he wanted to do so. However, the reason he allowed him to live to see another day was because he could be one of Chen Xiaobei's most important chess pieces. As long as he could utilize this chess piece properly, he could definitely overcome the dangerous matter that he was about to face.
"Yue Junmo. Please don't disappoint me!"
With his sheer will, a black worm appeared in Chen Xiaobei's palm. This was the Tame Head Hexworm from Azure Witch Faction. The last time Zhou Jianjun was infected by this hexworm, Chen Xiaobei was almost killed by him.
"The art of Tame Head…"
After chanting some secret ancient witch language, the hexworm climbed into Yue Junmo's mouth voluntarily.
*Buzz*
A Spiritual Signal was sent to Chen Xiaobei and a mini image of Yue Junmo appeared in Chen Xiaobei's palm.
"Everything is done for now! I should have everything under my control!"
"Mr. Chen! What should I do with these two jokers?"
After killing all the Blood Descendants, Wu Aofeng picked Zhuang Bufan and Zhuang Bifan up like they were two little chicks. He then tossed them in front of Chen Xiaobei.
"God Chen… Please spare our lives… Please!"
"We have not offended you all these while… We just sat there quietly and watched you act tough… Oh no… I mean watch you deal with that son of a bitch… Please spare our lives…"
The two of them had dirt all over their faces and their shirts were in tatters as well – making them looked like two pathetic beggars. Immediately, they started to kneel on the ground and kowtow at Chen Xiaobei. The way they did their kowtow was so accurate and fast. It would be a waste if they did not go on the streets to beg for money.
"You… What did the two of you just call him?"
Upon hearing that, Wu Aofeng was completely in shock.
"God Chen! He is the one that exerted immense pressure on our Zhuang Family! God Chen… Mercy please…"
Tears could be seen rolling down their eyes. Initially, they wanted to watch Chen Xiaobei's true identity being exposed by Yue Junmo. Instead, they witnessed Chen Xiaobei slap Yue Junmo and kill Harry with one single strike. At that moment, Zhuang Bifan's and Zhuang Bufan's almost exploded after experiencing such a startling moment. From the bottom of their hearts, they started to respect Chen Xiaobei as an almighty demigod. Other than begging for their lives, they could not think of other ways to travel back home safely.
*Bop!*
Suddenly, Wu Aofeng kneeled on the ground and kept on kowtowing toward Chen Xiaobei.
"Idol!!! I knew that you are no ordinary person! But I have never thought that you are the one that I've always want to meet!"
The moment Wu Aofeng kneeled on the ground, Zhuang Bifan and Zhuang Bufan were left in shock.
'He should have lined up! Can't he see that we are kneeling before God Chen?!'
"Ugh… The person that you've always wanted to meet… What the hell is that? I'm not gay…" said Chen Xiaobei in a frustrated manner.
"No! Not gay! I want to become your disciple badly! God Chen! I have idolized you for a very long time! Please take me in as your disciple! If not, I won't be able to sleep or eat well!"
"Ugh… You are exaggerating!"
Seemingly, Chen Xiaobei could not get used with Wu Aofeng's passion toward him. The Wu Aofeng that he knew had a bad temper and liked to do things in a very manly way.
"Trust me! I'm not exaggerating! I, Wu Aofeng will not marry anyone else except for you! Shit… I mean I will not become anyone else's disciple except yours! Sifu! Please take me in as your disciple! If not, I will not live long…" exclaimed Wu Aofeng while kept on kowtow at Chen Xiaobei.
Seeing that Wu Aofeng had already taken all the attention from Chen Xiaobei, Zhuang Bufan and Zhuang Bifan could only stare at them in astonishment. They could not even talk to Chen Xiaobei about letting them live.
"Alright. Alright. Alright. I promise you that I will take you in as my disciple! You are after all the number one genius from Northwest! I believe that you will definitely not embarrass me!"
Looking at the way Wu Aofeng acted toward this matter, Chen Xiaobei knew that he would hug his legs and cry if he did not say yes to him.
"This is great! This is awesome! I hereby thank you Sifu for taking me in!"
Feeling excited, Wu Aofeng kowtowed at Chen Xiaobei three times. When he stood up, the crowd immediately checked the floor – afraid that he would destroy the floor after knocking on it so hard continuously.
This was the true Wu Aofeng! He would never hide his feelings or thoughts! That was why Chen Xiaobei liked him a lot.
*Bop!*
*Bop!*
*Bop!*
At the same time, Zhuang Bifan and Zhuang Bufan did the same as well. Seeing that Wu Aofeng knocked his head as hard as possible on the ground, they too did not dare to not do it seriously. A few kowtows at Chen Xiaobei, their heads started to bleed.
"Alright. I can see that the two of you are quite sincere! I'm willing to let you live to see another day!" said Chen Xiaobei in a casual manner.
"Sifu! You must kill them! Yue Junmo did not manage to see your face! Knowing that they are quite close to Yue Junmo, I'm pretty sure that they will betray you!"
Upon hearing that, Zhuang Bifan and Zhuang Bufan were almost scared to death. Inside their hearts, they had scolded Wu Aofeng's entire family hundreds of times. Not only did he take Chen Xiaobei's attention away from them, he even convinced Chen Xiaobei to kill them.
"I don't really care. I will hold on to my words. I will let them live since I have already promised them! As for the betrayal part, it's not important to me at all!"
"You are right! He's just a Yue Junmo! I don't think he can do anything to you even if he knows the truth!" said Wu Aofeng while nodding his head.
"We will never betray you! Never! Even if someone wants to kill us!"
"We will be struck by lightning if we betray you! Our bodies will be dismembered if anyone of us here tells others about your true identity!"
Seeing that Zhuang Bifan and Zhuang Bufan were almost scared to death, Chen Xiaobei knew that they would never betray his trust no matter what. And the two of them still had value to Chen Xiaobei. Chen Xiaobei's disguise, their god great grandfather's status in the Zhuang Family would become less powerful if the two of them were dead. Before claiming everything from the vault, Chen Xiaobei would never kill them.
"Alright! You can now bring Yue Junmo with you and get the hell out from my face!"
Chen Xiaobei waved his hands and could not care less about them anymore.
"Thank you so much for not killing us… Thank you so much God Chen!"
The two of them gave Chen Xiaobei a couple more kowtow before fleeing the scene with Yue Junmo.
"Aofeng. Bring those bodies to me!"
Chen Xioabei then prepared to absorb their blood essence and souls. At the same time, he was preparing to use Body Dissolving Poison to destroy their bodies as well. Right after dealing with these two matters, Chen Xiaobei and Wu Aofeng then got back into the car.
"Aofeng. You can drive. I have to work on something."
Sitting at the back, Chen Xiaobei took out his cell phone and found out that he received a couple of messages from the Red Envelope Group. He was taken aback when he saw the senders of the message.
[The Primordial Lord of Heaven just tagged you!]
[Shen Gongpao just tagged you!]
"What the f*ck! What is going on?"
'The Primordial Lord of Heaven just tagged me personally? What the hell is going on? Shen Gongpao is Jiang Ziya's Shixiong! Why the hell did he tag me? Shit! What in the world is going on?!'
After putting some thought into it, Chen Xiaobei still could not figure it out. Instead of going into the group, he sent a message to the Prime of Tongtian first.
"Sifu is on my side! I'm not afraid even if the sky is going to fall on me! Hehehe!"
During the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Prime of Tongtian did help Chen Xiaobei to turn the tide around. As long as the Prime of Tongtian was with him, Chen Xioabei would not need to worry about anything even if the matter seemed pretty serious this time.
Chen Xiaobei: Sifu! What is going on in the group?
