"Yes, I am free to spend the money as I like but the high power of my family will send someone to question where the money is spent." Focker said, "If I can't come up with a reasonable explanation, I will be severely punished by my family! Most importantly, my family will look into the matter and will find out very quickly that it was you!"
Chen Xiaobei nodded and said, "Things happened too quickly, I didn't manage to come up with a solution. Do you have any ideas?"
"I do have one, but…" Focker wavered.
"It's alright. Just say what you have in mind."
"It's like this. My family have very strict assessment of every single investment we make." Focker explained, "That means that they will evaluate whether of not the investment I make is profitable. If it is, then they will not question any further!"
"From your tone of voice, I gather that acquiring both Lan and Yap organizations is not profitable?" Chen Xiaobei asked.
"Right. It's not!" Focker shook his head. "The eldest son of my family is in charge of handling businesses in China. I have never intervened. I spent such a large amount of money without so much as asking them. They will be very suspicious!"
"Mm… go ahead and tell me your idea." Said Chen Xiaobei.
"My family members are not dumb. They are not easily fooled. The only way to go about this is for you to give me a Spiritual Item!" Focker proceeded to elucidate, "To my family, it is very profitable to invest in a Spiritual Item! No matter the cost, my family will not question me but congratulate me for being able to acquire a Spiritual Item!"
"Oh, is that so?"
Chen Xiaobei raised his brows.
The Fockers were really such an unusual family. Chen Xiaobei was surprised that they had such a hidden rule. However, it was not that surprising. To them, money was merely a string of numbers, a pile of waste paper. If need be, they could even print their own money!
But Spiritual Item was different. They were limited and their availability even rarer!
To the Rothschild, exchanging money for a Spiritual Item was advantageous because the return would be lucrative!
"If it's too troublesome, I will think of another way…"
Focker quickly responded. He understood the value of the Spiritual Item.
"No, it's not." Chen Xiaobei shrugged and said, "I will give you a Spiritual Item first thing in the morning tomorrow. If that's not good enough, I can even give you two!"
"Are… you serious…"
Focker could not believe what he had just heard.
Spiritual Items were so rare.
How was it that Chen Xiaobei talked about it as if it were a common commodity like Chinese cabbage? Giving them away as he liked.
"Of course, I'm serious. It's not mine anyway. So it doesn't make a difference to me."
Chen Xiaobei grinned.
Focker wore a look of complete confusion. How could he give them away if they were not his?
Chen Xiaobei did not stay to explain. Once he saw that there was no one around, he stepped onto the Somersault Cloud and rushed to Dragon city.
...
Bei Xuan Faction.
Chen Xiaobei removed the lid of Green Jade Cauldron and the ten Heavenly Dog Biscuit were all done. The only changes he had made to the biscuits were their shapes. Xiao Tianquan's biscuits had been shaped into a bone whereas the ten biscuits he had just made were shaped into a pill!
Chen Xiaobei collected the ten biscuits and headed to the woodshed.
In the woodshed.
Tanaka Tsuyoshi was still knocked out.
And the grand leader Gordon was still bound, his energy completely drained by the rope. He could not even lift a finger. When he saw Chen Xiaobei, Gordon called out pitifully, like a pug, "Mr. Chen! Mr. Chen! You're finally back… I beg you! Please have mercy on me… If you let me live, I will be your slave and serve you forever! I am willing to follow you like a dog, be loyal to you until the day I die!"
"Hehe… since you are begging to become my dog, I will give you a chance!"
Chen Xiaobei bent down and grinned. "Open your mouth!"
"What… What are you doing?" Gordon asked nervously.
"Didn't you say you'll be loyal to me till the day you die? If you're not obedient now, how could I expect you to stay loyal to me if I let you go?" Chen Xiaobei retorted.
"You… You want to let me go?"
Gordon's eyes lit up at that thought.
His strength had been drained. If Chen Xiaobei had wanted him dead, all he had to do was give him a slap. Why would he be beating around the bush?
If Chen Xiaobei was not going to kill him, then Gordon would not have to worry about opening his mouth, right?
At the thought of that, Gordon had his mouth wide opened and said, "Mr. Chen, I will do everything you ask! Look at how loyal I am… Oh…"
Before the idiot could finish talking, Chen Xiaobei shoved a piece of Heavenly Dog Biscuit into Gordon's mouth.
Gulp…
Before Gordon could react, the biscuit had already made its way down his throat. Gordon was alarmed. "What… What was that? Mr. Chen, did you just poison me? I don't want to die… I don't want to die…"
"Huh? Why are you still so energetic? Did I make a mistake? It was Chen Xiaobei's turn to panic, "F*ck! I only have a few days before I will be attacking the Zhuangs! I also need the biscuit for Japan! Shit! If I concocted it wrongly, I am doomed!"
Cackle.
Suddenly, Gordon's stopped talking. His gaze fell and he started to ask questions in a robotic tone.
"Master! Are you my master?"
"Yes! It worked! It gave me a fright!" Chen Xiaobei was giddy with delight. "Yes! I am your master! From today onwards, you are Chen Xiaobei's dog!"
"Yes, Master!"
Gordon nodded stiffly. The spirit in his eyes had returned. When he looked at Chen Xiaobei, they were filled with sincere faith and devotion!
"Yes! It worked! Let's experiment again with this other white mouse!" Chen Xiaobei lifted Tanaka Tsuyoshi, and fed him the biscuit and a bottle of Hundred Herb Potion.
Tanaka Tsuyoshi quickly regained consciousness and immediately recognized Chen Xiaobei as his master. Another loyal dog!
"It worked! My Heavenly Dog Biscuit is effective!" Chen Xiaobei was over the moon, "One of them is an elite with True Nirvana cultivation and another one is an elite with Celestial cultivation! We'll see who dares enter Bei Xuan with these two dogs guarding! Ahaha!"
Xiaobei left the woodshed, and immediately ordered Zhao Ritian to release Gordon and Tanaka Tsuyoshi.
After that, he hurried to the Zhuang household!
Since the experiment worked, Chen Xiaobei must personally send the lovely dog biscuits he had so carefully made to his enemy!
Good things must be shared!
Ahaha!
In the Zhuang Family's vault!
This was Chen Xiaobei's third time in here.
Nothing had changed since the last time he was there. The used Spiritual Stones were still scattered across the floor. It seemed like no one had been in there for the past two days.
After today, there would not be anything left in here!
"Harvest! Begin!" Chen Xiaobei raised his brows and with a wave of his hand and moved the shelf next to him into his Infinite Space Ring.
The red sandalwood shelf might only be a shelf, but it was worth several millions! And the things on it were even more high-priced!
From the left, on the highest shelf were many different kinds of the most premium jades and jewels!
Store!
On the shelf below that were antique calligraphy, like the ones you can find in a small museum!
Store!
The third shelf was full of martial art manuals. Even more than a random faction would have!
Store!
On the fourth row were full of armors and weapons that were either crafted by famous blacksmiths or used by generals of ancient emperor!
Keep!
The fifth shelf was filled with medicinal herbs—all of them extremely rare and priceless!
Keep!
In a short few minutes, the Zhuang Family's large treasure vault was cleaned out by Chen Xiaobei. There was nothing left.
The Zhuang Family—the one of the four most powerful families of Dragon City! Their collection of hundreds of years of treasures disappeared just like that, into Chen Xiaobei's pocket!
"Humph humph! I've been eyeing them for so long. I can now finally sweep this place clean! It's so satisfying to rob your enemy! How gratifying!"
Chen Xiaobei smiled cunningly.
Chen Xiaobei pulled out the Ma Liang Divine Pen that he had not used for a while from the Infinite Space Ring.
He raised his hand and wrote on the wall of the vault!
...
In the Zhuang household.
In the mansion.
"It's the third day! After we eat the medicine given by Elder Wu, we can now get out of bed and walk like Junmo!"
Qiu Junmo leaned his head back on the pillow, looking quite pleased.
"When will Elder Wu come? I can't wait any longer!"
Qiu Junmo stood by the door, wearing an expectant expression on his face.
Xu Dongruo and Xu Changqing also had their eyes glued to the door, anticipating Chen Xiaobei's arrival as one would shooting stars.
"My grandfather just called. He said he'll be here in half an hour!"
All three Zhuang Hao, Zhuang Bihuang, and Zhuang Lao Taijun walked over.
"Yap Jianming must already have acquired Lan Organization by now!" Zhuang Hao smiled. "Once they are done. We'll be able to catch Chen Xiaobei soon! Since there's still another half an hour, let's discuss how we want to torture Chen Xiaobei."
"I want Chen Xiaobei to watch as I smash Lan Mengcheng's face! And then we should round up all of Chen Xiaobei's women and rape them! Then we'll throw them to the brothel so that they could prostitute themselves!"
Zhuang Bifan ran over and said breathlessly, "I want Chen Xiaobei castrated! And chilli oil to be poured onto his wound!"
"Stop all this nonsense!" Zhuang Lao Taijun said, "Your childish thinking is a joke to our guests!"
"It's not a bother!" Su Dongruo laughed. "Their ideas are pretty good! As long as we can cause pain and suffering to Chen Xiaobei, we'll be satisfied!"
"Grand Elder Su, you have misunderstood Zhuang Lao Taijun!"
Yue Changkong grinned. "Zhuang Lao Taijun said that their ideas are childish because she has better ideas!"
"Zhuang Lao Taijun, please enlighten us!" Yue Junmo asked eagerly.
"I've heard of a very special torture method called live skinning!"
Zhuang Lao Taijun narrowed her eyes.
"Live skinning? What is that?" Xu Changqing asked.
Zhuang Lao Taijun smiled frostily and said, "We'll bury Chen Xiaobei in the ground, leaving only his head above ground. Then, using a blade we'll take the layer of skin off his forehead and pour mercury on him! The mercury will flow down his body causing his so much pain that he'll start to struggle. When he does that, his flesh will tear. His eyes will rot until they cave in. He'll be in so much pain! Skinning the person while he's alive, so that his flesh and skin are separated! That is live skinning!"
If a normal person had heard this plan, they would be extremely spooked.
But the people in this household were excited—all of them looking forward to the unfolding of the plan.
"Wow! That's really good!" Zhuanghao grinned wickedly, "That's it then! Once we have Chen Xiaobei in our hands, we'll give a taste of his own medicine! We'll skin him first then we'll take our time torturing him… Urgh! Ah…!
Before he could finish, Zhuang Hao's expression suddenly changed and he let out a cry of anguish.
"Zhuang Hao! What's the matter?"
"Urgh… Ah! My chest… It hurts! It hurts!"
Zhuang Hao grabbed his chest and his legs gave way under him in front of the others.
His face scrunched up the veins on his forehead throbbed. His face was drained of color and his body started to convulse.
"Zhuang Hao? What's wrong? Don't scare us!"
Zhuang Lao Taijun was frantic.
"Dad! What is wrong?"
Zhuang Bifan and Zhuang Bufan were scared out of their wits.
"My chest… Feels like it was stabbed… Pain… Urgh! Blargh…"
Before he had finished talking, Zhuang Hao head fell and he threw up blood.
There were pieces of meat in the pool of blood. It was like his lungs were shredded and threw them all up.
Bam!
Then next minute, Zhuang Hao was on the ground, as blood continued to pour from his mouth.
"Zhuang Hao! Zhuang Hao!" Zhuang Bifan ran over and check Zhuang Hao's pulse. He looked up the others, horrified, "Zhuang… Zhuang Hao… Is dead…"
"What? Dead?"
The others were struck dumb.
A few minutes ago, Zhuang Hao was perfectly fine. He was even laughing and cursing Chen Xiaobei!
And then he just died!
Everyone else froze, cold sweat dripping down their backs and their hearts thumping so hard it was going to explode.
"Make a call! Call my grandfather! Argh…"
Zhuang Bifan screamed but he suddenly broke off mid-sentence and clutched his chest and fell to the ground.
"Argh…" Zhuang Bufan fell after him.
Puff…
Puff…
In an instant, both brothers were also throwing up blood and, in a matter of minutes, drew their last breath!
Breathless.
Blood and pieces of meat were all over the floor!
Zhuang Bifan and Zhuang Bufan lay stiff on the ground, a pained expression stuck on their faces. Both deceased!
"Bifan! Bufan! How did that happen? What is going on…" Zhuang Lao Taijun screamed, hysterical like she had just been struck by lightning.
"Dead… They're all dead… God wants all our Zhuangs dead…"
Zhuang Bihuang looked like he had just seen a ghost.
Zhuang Hao, Zhuang Bifan, and Zhuang Bufan were all Zhuang family's only three direct line of descendants. With the three of them dead, the Zhuang's family line was completely cut off.
"What happened? They were all fine. How could they have just died like that? That's too strange."
Yue Changkong looked terrified.
"I don't know…" Su Dongruo shook his head and sighed. "I've been around for more than a hundred years and I've never seen anything like this!"
"Do… Do you think there's any connection with Chen Xiaobei?" Xu Changqing gulped and said, "Just now, Master Zhuang described how he wanted to torture Chen Xiaobei! Then Zhuang Bifan said he wanted to rape Chen Xiaobei's women! Zhuang Bufan said he wants to castrate Chen Xiaobei! They died right after they said that!"
"That…"
Everyone was shocked.
"That's impossible… Could it be that Chen Xiaobei is a god? Could he kill without lifting a finger?"
Yue Changkong was unnerved.
"But the three of them did, in fact, talked bad about Chen Xiaobei and then die! It's too much of a coincidence if it had nothing to do with Chen Xiaobei," Su Dongruo said.
"That's impossible! That animal Chen Xiaobei is definitely not a demi-god! There is no way he could be a real deity that can use real magic power to kill someone!"
Zhuang Bihuang thundered, "Chen Xiaobei! I want to destroy you! I want to ravage all of your women until they die! I want to feed your family to the dogs! Try and kill me! Come on!"
The others were stunned by Zhuang Bihuang's outburst.
"I guess I was wrong… Chen Xiaobei could not kill someone without being present here…" Xu Changqing said.
"Yeah! Chen Xiaobei is nothing but a regular human being! If he could kill us without being present here, how could we have lived until now?"
Su Dongruo nodded and advised, "Grand Elder Zhuang and Zhuang Lao Taijun, the dead cannot be resurrected. Restrain your grief, accept fate…"
"I cannot accept this!"
Zhuang Bihuang was enraged, the whites of his eyes were bloodshot.
"Chen Xiaobei cut off my family line! I will not rest until he is dead! If he's so good, he should just kill me now! Or else I will do everything in my power to make him suffer!"
"Junmo, why are you standing behind Grand Elder Zhuang?"
Yue Changkong was puzzled.
"Huh?"
Zhuang Bihuang looked quizzically back. Because he was too worked up, he did not realize that Yue Junmo was just a half a step behind him.
Whoosh!
The next moment was completely unexpected.
Yue Junmo produced am extremely sharp dagger from his sleeves and drove it into the back of Zhuang Bihuang's waist.
"How dare you hurt me?! Die!" Zhuang Bihuang roared like a lion who just had his tail stepped on!
Immediately, Zhuang Bihuang counterattacked; he raised his palm and all of his 70,000 combat was unleashed! His yellow True Kang transformed into a battle hammer and landed it on Yue Junmo's head.
Bam!
Yue Junmo's head exploded like a watermelon that was hit by a metal hammer! Blood and flesh were scattered everywhere. Not even a deity can resurrect him this time!
"Zhuang Bihuang! How dare you kill my son! Whoo…"
Yue Changkong jumped up, furious.
But his wound had not yet fully recovered so his wounds tore apart and he started spewing up blood. He fell back onto his bed, frail and sickly.
"Let me ask you: if this dagger had gone in half an inch deeper, it would have torn into my Dantian! If I don't kill him, should I have just waited to die? Urgh…" Zhuang Bihuang retaliated.
The dagger was still stuck to his back. The truth was, it had already reached his Dantian! Using so much force further damaged his Dantian. He then threw up blood and knelt on the ground, feeble.
"What… What is happening? What is happening?"
Yue Changkong's face crumpled, his eyes bloodshot and the veins on his forehead were showing.
No matter how he scratched his head, he could not seem to figure out why his son would kill Grand Elder Zhuang.
But he was not the only one.
Su Dongruo and Xu Changqing were just as flabbergasted.
Three members of the Zhuang Family had just died so suddenly and violently.
Then the young master of Mount Hua faction and Grand Elder Zhuang were killing each other!
The only word to describe what had just happened was 'strange'. There was no way to explain it logically!
"My great ancestor, you need to remove the dagger first. But please don't hurt your Dantian…" Zhuang Lao Taijun advised, trying hard to hold back her grieve.
"No! Don't remove it!" Zhuang Bihuang shook his head and said, "This dagger is already in your Dantian. There's a lot of nerves around it, if you pull it out hastily, your injury will worsen! Only a specialist doctor can pull it out!"
"Specialist doctor?"
Zhuang Lao Taijun was taken aback.
She then said, "Elder Wu! Why isn't Elder Wu here yet? I will call him now! I will call him…"
"There's no need for that! I'm here!"
At the right moment, Chen Xiaobei walked in with the mask on, as the Elder Wu.
"Elder Wu!"
Zhuang Bihuang was overjoyed. He begged, "You're finally here! Please take this dagger out! If it hurts my Dantian, I will be crippled for the rest of my life!"
"Don't worry. I will not let you live a crippled life." Chen Xiaobei said and then he took out the key to the vault, threw it to Zhuang Lao Taijun and ordered, "Go to the vault and bring the medicines for the wounds."
"Yes! I will go now!"
Zhuang Lao Taijun dared not delay. She took the key and trotted to the vault.
Just as she turned to leave, Chen Xiaobei went up to Yue Junmo's body and started to do something complicated on it.
"Elder Wu, what are you doing?"
There were only four people left in the house. They were all wondering what the hell Chen Xiaobei was doing to the body.
But Chen Xiaobei said nothing.
Without warning, a black worm crawled out from Yue Junmo's body and onto Chen Xiaobei's hand.
"Elder… Elder Wu… What is that thing? Why was it in my son's body?" Yue Changkong asked, his voice shaky.
"This is a hexworm! Once the worm is inside a person, they will lose their consciousness and act according to the intentions of the one that plants it!" Chen Xiaobei said, as he removed his mask. "And I am the person who did it!"
Chen… Chen… Chen… Chen Xiaobei! You are actually Chen Xiaobei? How could this be? How…"
The four of those who were still alive, Yue Changkong, Su Dongrong, Zhuang Bihuang, and Xu Changqing bowled over.
They had not known that the Elder Wu they had worshipped and adored this few days, was actually their worst enemy Chen Xiaobei in disguise!
The four of them were flabbergasted.
"That's right. You're not imaging things. I am Chen Xiaobei!" Chen Xiaobei tossed the mask aside and spoke in his own voice, "Since you came to the Zhuang household, I've already planned out your death! Hah! To think that you even planned to take revenge on me! Did you even realize that since the beginning, you have been under my control! Whatever you do is still a joke! Killing all of you is child's play! I was going to give you two more days to mess around but since you were all so eager to get rid of me, and even drag the Lan family into this! Well, better sooner than later. I will just finish you lot today!"
Chen Xiaobei said coldly, "This morning, I've already acquired both the Lan and Yap organizations! Right now, it's your turn!"
The four men were petrified.
"You sneaky little bastard... You are full of sinister intentions."
Zhuang Bihuang said, trembling, "Zhuang Hao had already made you his god-grandfather before new year… That means that you have already started planning from the beginning…"
Chen Xiaobei said as-a-matter-of-factly, "Everything was pre-planned and pre-emptive! If I hadn't prepared ahead to face you group of vile monsters, I'm afraid the one kneeling on the floor right now would be me!"
Zhuang Bihuang asked, "Zhuang Hao, Zhuang Bifan, Zhuang Bufan… Their deaths were preplanned?"
"They were a family of savages! Their deaths were necessary!" Chen Xiaobei said frostily, "I had already planted the Mother-Son Hexworms in their bodies even before the new year! I waited until today to kill them or else I would have startled you!"
"That's very detailed and shrewd! Very well-planned!" Yue Changkong's eyes widened and his voice shook as he came to a sudden realization. "My son had recovered faster…not because of his good physique but because you had deliberately allowed him to heal faster than the rest of us! Then you used Tamehead to control my son to kill Elder Zhuang!"
"That's right!" Chen Xiaobei acknowledged contentedly, "I had already planted the Tamehead way beforehand! But there is one thing you were wrong about!"
"Wrong? What is it?"
Yue Changkong racked his brain, but was unable to figure out what Chen Xiaobei meant.
"I didn't want Zhuang Bihuang killed. I only want to hurt him."
Chen Xiaobei laughed.
"What? You mean that you didn't plan to kill me?"
Zhuang Bihuang looked unconvinced.
"That's right! I had no plans to kill you! Yue Changkong and Su Dongruo don't have to die either!" Chen Xiaobei explained calmly, "The three of you are my dogs with Celestial cultivation. It would be a shame to kill you. I want to bring you back to Bei Xuan Faction to watch over my place!"
"You little brat! Did a donkey kick you in the head?" Zhuang Bihuang barked, "Even if I agree to become your dog, would you use me? Aren't you afraid that I would stab you in the back?"
"Nope!" Chen Xiaobei walked over to him and ordered, "Open your mouth!"
"What are you doing? Argh! Ah…" Zhuang Bifan suddenly screamed.
Chen Xiaobei had grazed the dagger in his back.
"You little brat! Stop it! Hack hack hack…"
Yue Changokng and Su Dongruo warned but their wounds had not yet recovered. They could not even get off the bed, much less stop Chen Xiaobei.
"Okay… Okay… I'll do it… I'll open my mouth… Don't destroy my cultivation! I'll open my mouth now!"
Zhuang Bihuang was scared out his wits.
The dagger was still stuck in his Dantian!
If Chen Xiaobei wanted to, he could easily destroy Zhuang Bihuang's cultivation!
To the elites in Jianghu, cultivation was everything!
Power, status, wealth and women—these were all brought forth by their high cultivation. Once their cultivations were destroyed, everything they possessed would disappear into thin air.
It would be worse than death!
What was more, Zhuang Bihunag was still hoping to have his revenge. Without his cultivation, he would have nothing to wield against Chen Xiaobei.
Gulp…
Chen Xiaobei shoved a piece of Heavenly Dog Biscuit down Zhuang Bihuang's throat.
Then Chen Xiaobei looked at Yue Changkong and Su Dongruo and said, "The both of you are up next! Open your mouth!"
"No… What is that thing? We won't eat it…"
Both men shook their heads. They shut their mouth tightly.
"Don't worry. This is not poison!" Chen Xiaobei took two pieces of biscuit and warned, "If I will kill the both you, I won't be doing all these troublesome stuff! Look at Zhuang Bifan. He's fine."
Yue Changkong and Su Dongrup looked at Zhuang Bihuang. He looked alright. So they opened their mouth obediently and swallowed a piece of biscuit each.
"Hehe. I forgot to tell you. These are the magical biscuits that I made myself. You will see the effects in a short while!"
Chen Xiaobei grinned.
Zhuang Bifan was the first to experience change.
"Master… Are you my master?"
Zhuang Bihuang looked bleary-eyed.
"Master… Are you our master…" Zhuang Bihuang asked blankly.
"That's right! From today onward, I, Chen Xiaobei, will be your master!"
Chen Xiaobei smiled delightedly.
He would have another three loyal dogs with Celestial cultivation to add to his collection! With Gordon joining them, Chen Xiaobei had amassed four loyal dogs with Celestial cultivation! In this world, there would be no faction that could compare to the Bei Xuan Faction. Looking at all the ancient faction, none of them had managed to amass four elites with Celestial cultivation in one single faction.
Ding!
[You have eliminated a third generation villain. You have been rewarded with 30,000 merit points!]
Ding!
[You have eliminated a third generation villain. You have been rewarded with 30,000 merit points!]
Ding!
[You have eliminated a second generation villain. You have been rewarded with 20,000 merit points!]
Ding!
[You have eliminated a fifth-generation villain. You have been rewarded with 50,000 merit points!]
Ding!
[Your current merit points is 2,830,000. You will need another 170,000 merit points to proceed to next level. (Charm: 283,000. Luck: 283,000)!]
Suddenly the Netherspirit Battlescouter sent four notifications to Chen Xiaobei.
Zhuang Hao, Zhuang Bifan, and Zhuang Bufan had died in the hands of Mother-Son Hexworms, which was also of Chen Xiaobei's doing.
But Yue Junmo had died in Zhuang Bihuang's hands!
The fourth message must be from Zhuang Lao Taijun!
...
The vault was emptied out!
Zhuang Lao Taijun clutched her chest. Her face distorted and her eyes rolled to the back of her head, showing only the whites. She had died from anger!
On the wall where her body lay was written, 'The person who killed and robbed this vault is also Chen Xiaobei!'
Kill!
Rob!
The Zhuang family line was cut off! Hundreds of years of collections were gone!
And all of these were the work of their worst enemy Chen Xiaobei!
Although Zhuang Lao Taijun had been constantly enhancing the condition of her body, the blow was too much for her to handle. So she died in the vault!
...
In the mansion.
The three elites with Celestial cultivation had all become Chen Xiaobei's loyal dogs!
Chen Xiaobei had given them the Hundred Herbs Potion. Once they had fully recovered, they would be able to move freely.
Of course, there was still a fourth person.
"Mr… Mr. Chen… I … I am willing to become your dog… I am willing…"
Xu Changqing's blood ran cold. His eyes fill with fear, looking at Chen Xiaobei as if he was a God of Death!
He was too scared to even think of fighting back.
Even if it meant losing all his freedom after becoming Chen Xiaobei's dog, he did not mind as well.
"You are not good enough to be my dog!" Chen Xiaobei shrugged and said.
"No… Mr Chen, please listen to me. I am the core disciple of Mount Shu Faction! My grandfather is the grand elder! I will be of use to you…" Xu Changqing begged pathetically.
He understood that if he could not become Chen Xiaobei's dog, there was only one way things would end!
Whoosh!
Yue Changkong waved a finger and a powerful silver True Kang severed Xu Changqing's head.
"Your grandfather would make a better dog for Bro Bei than you!"
Yue Changkong did not even flinch, as if he had merely killed an ant.
"I heard that Situ Hengfeng was the mastermind behind the scheme to acquire the Lan Family's organization. Is that right?" Chen Xiaobei asked.
"That's right! Situ Hengfeng and Yap Jianming came up with the plan!" Xu Dongruo said.
"Find Situ Hengfeng! Send him to hell!" Chen Xiaobei said.
"Yes!" Yue Changkong, Xu Dongruo, and Zhuang Bihuang responded in unison.
They immediately ordered their men to begin searching the city.
...
Bei Xuan Faction.
Chen Xiaobei's people could not understand how their enemies who had wanted them dead three days ago, suddenly became so loyal men to Chen Xiaobei. He then took a while to explain things to them before they were able to accept what had happened. Of course, those who were the members of Red Envelope Group like Jiang Ziya and Old Wang did not need any explanation. They knew very well that Chen Xiaobei must have used Heavenly Dog Biscuit on their enemies.
A banquet was thrown in Bei Xuan Faction during dinner, everyone celebrated Chen Xiaobei's great victory.
Yap Family bled dry!
Zhuang family destroyed!
Liu Family subdued!
It was clear that Chen Xiaobei's 'cleansing' of Dragon city was very successful!
Not only did he defeat the enemy, Chen Xiaobei had also improved his own strength!
At the same time, a huge change was about to sweep across the world of politics, business, and Jianghu! If things went smoothly, the Cao Family would be the first to take a hefty amount of power and resources from the Zhuang Family. Elder Cao would also be the country's most important individual in the cabinet!
The Lan Family had merged with the Yap Organization. They could overtake Dragon City's wealthiest family and goon to build China's first commercial empire! On the surface, the Liu Family would not experience any change—they would still be China's Jianghu number one faction! But the Liu Family's hearts had already belonged to Bei Xuan Faction!
It was no exaggeration to say that Chen Xiaobei's 'cleanup' would lay the foundation of Dragon City for the next ten, maybe even up to one hundred years! Cao, Lan, Liu, these three families, would replace the previous four most powerful families and become the super elite families!
And Bei Xuan's Chen family would, without a doubt, become the power on top of those three families!
It was just like those years in Green Vine City when Fire Boss was the kingpin and Chen Xiaobei was his boss!
Today, Cao, Lan and Liu would be leading the worlds of politics, business, and Jianghu.
In the secular world, the three families were the 'emperors'.
Who the backstage ruler was self-evident!
As of then, no external forces would dare threaten Bei Xuan Faction or Chen Xiaobei's family and friends!
But as for the ancient factions, there might still be trouble.
After all, they still had not caught Situ Hengfeng. That would be the biggest change! But then again, there were four elites with Celestial cultivation protecting his faction and Elder Cao would back him up anytime as well. Even if Mount Shu Faction wanted to stir up trouble, they would not come to Dragon City.
As for how they would become a cause of nuisance was a topic for another day.
Chen Xiaobei could not be bothered and did not have the time to think about it. Because his indispensable trip to Japan was impending!
According to what Li Xiang had told him, there was only half a month left before Demonic Fox was forced to marry Japan's crown prince. After the incident happened on Paradise Island, Chen Xiaobei had already changed the way he looked at Demonic Fox. Though the time did roll back, Chen Xiaobei still remembered everything clearly.
Chen Xiaobei would save Demonic Fox and avenge her! Of course, there was another reason why he wanted to go to Japan—to fulfill his promise with Li Xiang! He would do everything in his power to find the last scale of the Orochi. According to Li Xiang, once he had gathered all nine scales in order to piece together Emperor Qin's map to his tomb.
The treasures that they were going to find in his tomb would be their biggest yield and there was nowhere in this world could compare to it.
If he was able to locate it, there would be a slew of benefits!
Because of that, Chen Xiaobei refrained from drinking too much at the banquet. At the right time, he left to his room and began to position whatever was to happen next.
The first thing was to settle Focker's situation. Chen Xiaobei took Zhuang Bihuang's Earth Golem Phantom Claw and Su Dongruo's Fish Bone Soft Sword which paled in comparison to Chen Xiaobei's precious Spiritual Items.
Chen Xiaobei gave them to Focker without a second thought.
Once Focker was able to put forth and explain the transaction, and therefore did not subject him to the Focker's probing, only then could Chen Xiaobei leave with peace in his heart.
Other than that, three of the four Celestial cultivation elites were left guarding Bei Xuan Faction; Yue Changkong was sent back to Mount Hua Faction to stabilize the situation over there.
After all, Mount Hua Faction was one of the mid-level ancient faction. As long as it was well-managed, Chen Xiaobei would have a chess piece in place!
Even if they were to have a war against Mount Shu Faction, Chen Xiaobei would have a foothold!
The last thing Chen Xiaobei needed to take care of was who to take with him.
Cang Jingu and Tanaka Tsuyoshi would naturally have to go. These two idiots were pretty high-ranked in Japan. They were also of a special status so they would have no problem clearing the path for Chen Xiaobei.
Other than them, Chen Xiaobei still needed to choose a few others.
To his surprise, Jiang Ziya and Zhao Ritian came out of the blue to ask to join Chen Xiaobei on his excursion!
That was strange indeed!
Why do the both of you want to come with me? You don't know anything about Japan. What use would it be if you came?" Chen Xiaobei wanted to know.
He was still unaware of Zhao Ritian's true identiy. However, Chen Xiaobei was cautious about Jiang Ziya. There must be a personal reason for him to want to go!
"I have just joined this faction. I want to learn more alongside you, Master. So that I can gain more skills so that I can be useful to you!" Zhao Ritian was the first to speak. "Also, the other disciples that you have chosen are all well-known in China! A nobody like me would go unnoticed. So if anything happens, I could use my Deity Constricting Rope to help you!"
Chen Xiaobei nodded and answered, "Mm, that makes sense. Go ahead and get ready. We leave tomorrow!"
Chen Xiaobei had agreed because one, he did not know Zhao Ritian's real identity; two, Zhao Ritian's explanation was actually reasonable. Deity Constricting Rope would really come in handy.
"Thank you for Sifu's permission!" Zhao Ritian bowed respectfully and retreated.
"What about me? Can I come too?" Jiang Ziya asked impatiently.
"You?" Chen Xiaobei pursed his lips and replied disapprovingly, "I'm not going to wage war. Why do you want to go?"
"I…" Jiang Ziya was at a loss for words but he pushed on. "The deadline for my Three Realms Mission is near! If I have not gathered one million disciples by then, I will be punished!"
"What does you being punished have anything to do with me? I have already taught you what to do, but you refused to listen to me. So are you going to blame me?"
Chen Xiaobei looked at him icily.
Chen Xiaobei had two very important things he needed to do in Japan. Where would he find time to help Jiang Ziya complete his mission? Also, he would need to constantly be on a lookout in case this old man caused any problems!
"No! You must bring me with you! You will eventually be implicated in this!" Jiang Ziya said.
"Why? On what basis?" Chen Xiaobei said coldly. "Like I said, I've already given you the solution. You are the one who keeps making excuses—refusing to do this and that! Shen Gongpao wants to punish me? Even if I agree to it, my Sifu will not!"
No no no! Shen Gongpao will not punish you! Please don't alarm the Prime of Tongtian!" Jiang Ziya quickly explained. "Don't you have only one year of lifespan left?"
"Oh? How is that an old geezer like you know my lifespan?" Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes. "What does this have anything to do with your Three Realms Mission?"
Jiang Ziya clarified, "Don't you think that it's such a coincidence? The deadline for my mission is on the same day as when Queen Mother's Saturn Peach Feast!"
"Saturn Peach Feast?"
Chen Xiaobei's eyes lit up.
He recalled Yanwang mention that Saturn Peach Feast was just around the corner if they could get their hands on at least one Saturn Peach, then they could replenish their lifespan!
"Yes! Saturn Peach Feast it is then! That is also the day my Three Realms Mission ends! Shen Gongpao would surely mention me before the crowd of people!" Jiang ZIya said, "If you help me complete my mission, Queen Mother will be so happy that she may want to reward you with a Saturn Peach! If she's unhappy, not only will she punish you, you won't even be able to have a taste of Saturn Peach!"
"Oh you motherf*cker! Are you blackmailing me?" Chen Xiaobei asked gave him a half smile.
Previously, Chen Xiaobei was only suspicious of Jiang Ziya. But after today, Chen Xiaobei was more than certain that the idiot was spying on them!
He had found out about Chen Xiaobei's weakness and then purposely set his mission deadline on the same day as the Saturn Peach Feast.
So that he could threaten Chen Xiaobei into agreeing to his request!
But, Chen Xiaobei still could not figure out what was the real reason Jiang Ziya wanted to go to Japan.
However, since Jiang Ziya had already revealed his cards, this old man might cause other troubles if Chen Xiaobei rejected him. Chen Xiaobei would just have to agree to let him go with them. The truth was Chen Xiaobei did had a solution to help him gather one million disciples!
"Alright! Since you brought that up, I will bring you with me!" Chen Xiaobei said sternly, "But know this, I will give you the solution for one last time, but if you still refuse to follow, I will let the Red Envelope Group know about it!"
"Don't worry! I will give you any problems when we're there!" Jiang Ziya patted his chest and vowed, "As long as the number of disciple increases, I will do whatever you ask me to!"
"Alright! Go ahead and get ready as well. We leave early tomorrow!" Chen Xiaobei instructed.
Jiang Ziya nodded and left.
In the hill behind Bei Xuan Faction.
Zhao Ritian had been waiting. Jiang Ziya snuck out to meet him.
"It's set. I will also be going tomorrow!" Jiang Ziya said solemnly, "This time, the Primordial Lord of Heaven had told us that Daji herself will show up! We must find her before Chen Xiaobei does! If I finish this mission, I will be able to return to heaven and you will regain your freedom!"
"I know that! But is it really that simple?" Zao Ritian said coldly, "I heard Shen Gongpao says that even though Japan is small there are about hundreds of millions of people! Without a picture or any information, trying to find that one specific person is like trying to find a needle in a haystack!"
"We do have some pointers!" Jian Ziya said. "As long as we channel True Qi into the reincarnated Daji's chest—a crimson red lotus will appear!"
"Crimson red lotus? Are you talking about Lady Nuwo's Spiritual Imprint?"
Zhao Ritian was both shocked and eager.
"That's right!" Jiang Ziya nodded and said, "During the last calamity, when the Void Land was still intact, King Zhou of Shang defiled Lady Nuwo's statue! Naturally, she was angry about it. In the end, she sent Daji to seduce King Zhou of Shang. This was to break the balance of the Shang Dynasty!"
"Now, calamity is just around the corner. Sheng Gongpao entered Dynasty Shang to tie the Qi of Jieism and Qi of the Shang Dynasty together. And I'm supposed to enter the Zhou Dynasty and tie it together with Chanism! With that being said, the war between Shang and Zhou is like a mini version of the war between gods!"
"The all-powerful and prosperous the Shang Dynasty was finally defeated by the Zhou Dynasty! At the same time, the famous Jieism was defeated by my Chanism! In this entire war, Daji was the key person there. Not only she was assigned to seduce King Zhou of Shang, she actually carried the Qi of Lady Nuwo's Spirit Sect! In this upcoming calamity, the Primordial Lord of Heaven predicts that the Prime of Tongtian will definitely lead Jieism to make Chanism pay for what we did to them last time! And the one that manages to make Lady Nuwo to side with them will acquire a greater advantage!"
"Daji is the key to make Lady Nuwo pick a side!"
Jiang Ziya had experienced the entire calamity last time. So he was well aware of some of the hidden crux.
Staying in the room, Chen Xiaobei had no idea what Zhao Ritian and Jiang Ziya were talking about. After doing a quick calculation, there were only 300 Spiritual Stones left in the Green Jade Gourd. This amount of Spiritual Stones was just enough for Chen Xiaobei to save his life one time. If a powerful enemy crossed paths with Chen Xiaobei, he had to plan properly before attacking his enemy.
Initially, he had 600 Spiritual Stones with him. He then received 5,000 Spiritual Stones from the martial arts competition. After that, he managed to convince his enemies to give him 4,000 Spiritual Stones! Including the 2,700 Spiritual Stones that Chen Xiaobei stole from Zhuang Family's vault, he ended up with 12,300 Spiritual Stones! However, he did not expect that he would be left with such little Spiritual Stones when everything finally set in stone.
Still, he thought it was worth it! A 12,000 Spiritual Stones worth of investment!
He spent 2,000 Spiritual Stones to trigger his Witch Dragon Nine Transformations to protect this familiy and friends.
Another 10,000 Spiritual Stones to convert four elites with Celestial cultivation and Tanaka Tsuyoshi to become his loyal servants. Still, he was left with five pieces of Heavenly Dog Biscuits.
Looking at these two matters, it was no wonder that Chen Xiaobei was happy to spend 12,000 pieces of Spiritual Stones! Other than that, Chen Xiaobei had even acquired a Spiritual Item, Armor Penetration Ray and all the treasures in Zhuang Family's vault!
In the future, this investment that he made was going to help hit a lot. For example, when Chen Xiaobei came back from Japan, he planned to travel to Mount Hua Faction and take a look at their treasure vault. The most important thing was he could actually take whatever he liked and nobody would stop him.
Let's take a look at the other example!
Through Gordon, Chen Xiaobei would understand Blood Descendants better since Gordon would tell Chen Xioabei all of Blood Descendant's secret! A piece of Dark Neutron had boosted Chen Xiaobei's health by 7,000!
What if there were tens and hundreds of Dark Neutrons lying around?!
It was definitely an exciting idea for Chen Xiaobei to slowly indulge in it.
For now, Chen Xiaobei would not be able to make these two ideas come true. He had to focus on traveling to Japan to do whatever he needed to do. After making sure everything was taken care of, Chen Xiaobei went and called all the women that he cared about.
Lan Mengcheng would stay at Green Vine City to take care of his grandma for the meantime. Before they could actually move to Dragon City, they had to take care of a number of matters first. Probably, they would only be able to move to Dragon City after Chen Xiaobei came back from Japan.
As for Wenyuan, she was occupied with a number of new acting jobs. She was not like before—insisting to stick with Chen Xiaobei all the time. Both of them hung up the call after saying goodbye.
Lin Xiang was still training in Tidal Faction. Once she put in her mind to achieve something, she would not quit until she got it done. That was why it would be quite hard for Chen Xiaobei to reach her for the meantime.
Amongst all, Song Qincheng was the one that felt heavy hearted when she knew that Chen Xiaobei was going to leave her temporarily. She even reminded Chen Xiaobei to be careful and come back to her as soon as possible once he had settled everything in Japan.
Lastly, Chen Xiaobei rang up Luo Puti. Her current situation was actually very complicated. Putting her love relationship aside, her missing parents had bothered her for a very long time. Now that Chen Xiaobei had made Yue Changkong become his loyal servant, Luo Puti could now go to Mount Hua Faction and asked Yue Changkong to assist her in every possible way.
Judging from the thing that Luo Puti told Chen Xiaobei, there was a high chance that Yue Changkong might not know what had happened to her parents. With that being said, she might need to wait for Chen Xiaobei to come back from Japan to help her to investigate this matter. All he wanted to do right now was to give Luo Puti a peace of mind.
After dropping the call, Chen Xiaobei could not help but let out a long sigh. It was at that moment Chen Xiaobei realized that he was in love with so many women. Undeniably, Chen Xiaobei was a womanizer. However, he would not be able to forgive himself if he abandoned them.
All those women that Chen Xiaobei called just now were closely tied to his life. There was no way that Chen Xiaobei would reject their love and kick them away. In the end, Chen Xiaobei was marked as a womanizer but he did not mind at all.
"Even my Sifu told me that I'm born to be a womanizer! Let it be then! At least, I did not let any of them down! Hold on. Qincheng and I can actually be considered as husband and wife! Other than that, I have never deflowered any of them!"
Suddenly, a lady in white that looked a goddess descended from heaven appeared in Chen Xiaobei's mind. The truth was Chen Xiaobei did hurt one of the girl's hearts!
"Lady Goddess!"
Saddened, Chen Xiaobei's face turned sorrowful. He gave his virginity to her and she gave her virginity to Chen Xiaobei as well. Until now, they still did not know each other's name. Let alone, looking for her.
"If this is a fated super marriage for me, why is she so far away from me?" said Chen Xiaobei with a sigh.
Ring!
Suddenly, Chen Xiaobei's cellphone rang. It was his lucky goddess!
"Xuanxin? Why is she calling me at this late hour?"
"Initially, I wanted to call you earlier but your cell phone was engaged!"
"Erm… I was talking to my friends. It did take quite some time…"
"Girlfriend?"
"Erm…"
Feeling nervous, Chen Xiaobei was wondering if Liu Xuanxin was the worm in his stomach. Seemingly, she knew everything about him.
"It was just a simple chat. Nothing special."
"The reason why I'm calling you is to show my gratitude to you! My grandpa and brother had just apologized to me! We are now staying at Xuanjian Faction! I'm really happy that everything back to how it supposed to be!"
"You have a big heart since you are willing to forgive them! You didn't need to thank me!"
As the saying goes, one would rather choose to destroy ten temples than a family! Chen Xiaobei actually felt really happy because he managed to help Liu Xuanxin.
"I must thank you for helping me! It's a must! Without your help, I'm afraid the barrier between me and my family with never be broken!"
"You are most welcome! If you must thank me, I want to thank you as well! You came to Bei Xuan Faction to help me during my most difficult time!"
"Alright. Fair enough. Oh right, when will you be free? Come over and have dinner with us. My grandpa and brother would like to thank you as well!"
"I'm afraid I will not be able to go over to your place anytime soon… I will travel to some place far. The journey could last half a month to one month…"
"Okay… I will ask you again after half a month… By that time… I will cook for you personally…" said Liu Xuanxin nervously.
The second morning.
Everyone left Bei Xuan Faction and took Li Xiang's private jet to Japan.
Li Xiang, Zhao Ritian, and Jiang Ziya were clean. So, they did not need to do anything special before entering Japan. As for Chen Xiaobei, he was the most wanted criminal in Japan. That was why he needed to put on mask. Same went with Cang Jingu and Tanaka Tsuyoshi since the two of them could be considered as some of the most important people in Japan.
The mask that Chen Xiaobei put on him made him look like one of those ordinary teenagers on the street. He then changed his name to Chen Zhufeng and he will be known as Li Xiang's assistant. As for Cang Jingu and Tanaka Tsuyoshi, the two of them became middle-aged men once they put on the mask. They were supposed to be translators for Li Xiang.
All the official procedure for boarding an airplane was exempted because they traveled to Japan with Li Xiang's private jet. Two hours later, they finally arrived at Tokyo Airport.
"Japan is such a small country! Tokyo Airport is at least five times smaller than the airport in Dragon City!"
After got down from the private jet, Zhao Ritian took a look around. He could not help but take the opportunity to mock Japan.
"This is actually normal. In history, Japan is known as the Land of Pellets! Everything in their country is small!" said Jiang Ziya like he knew everything in this world.
"With that being said, the power and resources in Japan should not be better than China, right?" asked Chen Xiaobei.
"Erm…"
Taken aback, Jiang Ziya could not answer this question.
"Bro Bei is right! There are only two powerful factions in this country! The first one is called Tenshou! And the second one is called Divine Sovereign Sect!" said Cang Jingu.
"I heard my friend told me that the Divine Sovereign Sect is the largest religion in Japan! 99% of the Japanese worship the Divine Majesty!"
Clearly, Chen Xiaobei got this information from Demonic Fox. Demonic Fox was the Holy Lady of the Divine Sovereign Sect. In other words, she was the disciple of Divine Majesty!
"How powerful is Divine Majesty?" asked Chen Xiaobei.
"I have no idea about that! Divine Majesty has never revealed his combat power to others! And he has never fought with others as well! That is why he is a mystery to most of the people! All I know is the four protectors of Divine Majesty are elites with Celestial cultivation! I'm pretty sure the Divine Majesty is more powerful than them!" said Cang Jingu.
"Above Celestial cultivation?"
With his eyes narrowed, Chen Xiaobei changed the topic.
"What about Tenshou? What's their deal? Tanaka, you are one of the Tenshou, right? Tell me something about them."
"As compared to Divine Sovereign Sect, Tenshou is actually more powerful and resourceful than them! The headquarters of Tenshou is on Tenshou Island, located in another country. The Tenshou in Japan is just a small branch serving the royalty!"
"More powerful than Divine Sovereign Sect? Tell me exactly how powerful they are!"
"I'm just gonna tell you one of the most powerful people in Tenshou! Tenshou God! He is a Sky Ninja. To put it in your language, he is like a demigod!"
Demi… Demigod?"
Chen Xiaobei remembered that Demonic Fox told him that her enemy was extremely powerful. Not only could the prince of Japan do nothing about him, but the Divine Majesty from Divine Sovereign Sect was also his disciple as well. Judging from the thing that Tanaka Tsuyoshi just told Chen Xiaobei, there was a high chance that Demonic Fox's enemy is this Tenshou God!
Sky Ninja!
Demigod!
He could actually be considered as one of the most powerful people that ever lived on earth! If a fight broke out between Chen Xiaobei and the Tenshou God, this trip to Japan was actually life threatening! Of course, this was only Chen Xiaobei's speculation, he had to wait till he met up with Demonic Fox to clarify the whole thing.
After that, all of them left the airport via a special VIP channel. Those who used this channel were normally ultra-rich individuals.
"Give way! Give way now! Don't block the way! Everyone here will die if there's something bad happens to Ms. Amasa!"
At the end of the corridor, there was a group of people surrounding something.
"What are they talking about? I cannot understand…" asked Jiang Ziya.
"The language that they are using is Japanese. Let me translate it for you!"
Tanaka Tsuyoshi was walking beside Jiang Ziya and told him everything in Chinese.
"You! Come here and translate for me!"
Zhao Ritian used his finger to summon Cang Jingu to his side. As for Chen Xiaobei and Li Xiang, the two of them could understand Japanese pretty well. That was why they did not need translators to explain the whole thing to them.
"It seems like something bad happened to some influencer!" said Chen Xiaobei.
"You are right! Amasa! That's the surname of the wealthiest family in Japan! She could the daughter of the richest man in Japan, Yuki Amasa!" said Li Xiang.
"Damn… You actually know quite a lot about them!" said Chen Xiaobei with a smile.
"Of course! I have done a lot of research since we are going to do something big in Japan!" said Li Xiang.
"Bro Bei! Let's go! This is others' territory! We should continue to lay low!" said Zhao Ritian.
Chen Xiaobei then nodded. Though he was no evil man, he would never go and stick his nose in others' business without a good reason. However, the moment Chen Xiaobei walked past the crowd, he could sense a strong evil presence.
"Hold on!"
Chen Xiaobei stopped moving. He then activated his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes to look at the crowd. Immediately, he saw a young lady lying on the ground. The woman was very beautiful and the way she dressed made her stood out even more. Looking at her long and fair legs, it was definitely a sight to behold.
"Ugh…"
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei shook his head and scolded him for being an animal. Since he felt a sense of Yin Qi from her just now, Chen Xiaobei scanned her entire body once again. In the end, he saw there was a purple and black Yin Qi pressed on the lady's forehead like a demon claw. That was the reason why she was unconscious.
"Doctor! Please save her! Don't let anything bad happens to her!" said a Japanese man in leather shoes and a suit.
"Ms. Amasa's heart suddenly stopped working! I have to give her an adrenaline shot!" said the doctor after checking on her.
"What are you waiting for? Do it now!"
"Alright!"
The doctor took out the adrenaline boost from her first aid box and prepared to inject the lady with it.
"She will die if you inject her with it!"
A calm voice managed to draw everyone's attention.ED: As much as I enjoy this story all the diss on Japan makes me uncomfortable xD
Who is talking? How dare you curse Ms. Amasa?!"
Immediately, everyone turned around and landed their attention on the one that spoke just now. They were wondering who was bold enough to say something crazy like this. To their surprise, the person that just talked was an ordinary looking teenager that was in his twenties.
"Who do you think you are? Bastard! You have no right to say something like this here! If I don't inject this adrenaline boost in Ms. Asama's heart, her heart will stop permanently any time from now! By that time, she will be dead for real!" said the doctor in an angry manner.
"Look at your stupid face! Do you know that you have a poor look on you? Are you a servant from some rich family? Who is your master? I don't think he taught you well! You are barking like a wild dog here!" said the man in a suit.
"Mister! Watch your mouth!"
Suddenly, Li Xiang stepped forward and stood in front of Chen Xiaobei.
"He is my assistant! Not a servant!"
"Who the hell are you again? You are not worthy enough to talk to me!"
The main suit glared at Li Xiang. Clearly, he was looking down on him.
"I'm a representative of Li Organization in China! I'm here to close a one billion electronic appliances deal!" said Li Xiang in a proud manner.
Seemingly, Li Xiang was well prepared to face situations like this.
"China? Li Organization? You Chinese are a bunch of kids! Stop showing off with your one billion deal! It's nothing to us! Don't act like you are some big tycoons!"
"How dare you mock me?"
Though Li Xiang had retired for many years, he was still the grand duke of Blood Descendant and the great ancestor of Li Family. He would never allow a young foreigner to mock him. On the other hand, instead of getting angry, Chen Xiaobei went and gave Li Xiang a piece of advice.
"CEO Li, you don't have to get on the same level with him. Just let him inject the adrenaline boost in that lady's heart and we will see who's the real moron here!"
"Okay."
Li Xiang nodded his head. From the surface, he looked he was the one with most power amongst the group. Truthfully, he had to consult Chen Xiaobei before making any decision. Naturally, he would need to listen to whatever Chen Xiaobei said as well.
"Hmph! Don't act like you know everything! Doctor! Save her now! Ignore those stupid Chinese bastards!" said the man in a suit.
"Of course I will ignore them!"
While injecting the adrenaline boost into the lady's heart, he turned around and said, "I have a medical Ph.D. from Elliam Mon Pete University in the US! China is just a third-world country! I'm pretty sure the medicinal knowledge that you have with you is extremely limited as well! Your opinion does not matter to me!"
"That's right! I will definitely reward you abundantly when Ms. Amasa regains consciousness!" said the man in a suit.
"Is Elliam Mon Pete a renowned university?" asked Chen Xiaobei who was mildly amused.
"Of course! That is the best medical university in this world! There are a few Nobel Prize winners that graduated from this university!" said Li Xiang.
"Hehe… Elliam Mon Pete University sounds like Yi Lian Meng Bi (Dumbass) University!"
"Why is that?"
Clearly, Li Xiang did not understand the thing that Chen Xiaobei just said.
Suddenly, the doctor and the man in a suit screamed and left in shock.
"What the hell is going on? How… How… How did that happen?
Immediately, Li Xiang rushed over to check it out. He could see that the lady lying on the floor was clearly suffering from extreme pain. Both of her hands were placed on the chest. There was a high chance that the source of the pain came from her heart. Due to the extreme pain, her body was curled into a ball and as she shook uncontrollably. Still, she did not regain consciousness. No matter how the doctor tried, he could not wake her up. And he could not figure out why would she stay unconscious as well. All the doctor and the man in a suit could do was look at each other helplessly.
"Bro Bei… What is going on?" asked Li Xiang.
"The reason why that lady stays unconscious is not because of illness! They really shouldn't put adrenaline shots into her body! Now, they have to bear the consequences!" said Chen Xiaobei.
Upon hearing that, Li Xiang was taken aback.
"You stupid quack! Do you know that you just murdered Ms. Amasa?! I'm going to make sure that your entire family will go into the grave with her!"
The man in a suit was not on the doctor's side anymore. Seconds ago, he was just talking about rewarding the doctor abundantly and now he wanted him dead!
"I… I don't know what is happening as well! Master Umekawa… Please forgive me!" said the doctor in a terrifying manner.
"Master Umekawa! This is not the time for an argument! If there's anything bad happens to Ms. Amasa, the entire Umekawa Family including you will have a huge price to pay!" said one of the middle-aged butler looked alike man.
"I…"
The man in a suit was left in shock.
Just like what Li Xiang told Chen Xiaobei. The Amasa Family is the richest and most powerful family in Japan. If the only daughter in Amasa Family was dead, the Umekawa Family would definitely be the one to be blamed!
After that, the butler ignored the man in a suit and approached Chen Xiaobei.
"Mister, do you know why my lady is still unconscious? Please save her if you know the cause," said the butler in a polite banner while bowing at Chen Xiaobei.
Chen Xiaobei did not respond to him.
"Save my ass! I thought you say that us Chinese are some barbarians that know nothing about this world? We are going to be the real barbarian this time! Don't expect us to save her!" said Zhao Ritian.
Cang Jingu was translating for him.
Immediately, the butler kneeled down in front of them.
"I know that we have offended you just now! My lady has nothing to do with it! I remember there's a saying in Chinese, to rescue one person from death is better than to build a seven-storied pagoda for the gods! Please! I beg you!"
"You are right! Saving someone's life is very important! I can save her! No problem! But, I think you should not be the one that comes here and beg me for it!"
The butler was smart enough to figure out Chen Xiaobei's intention.
"Umekawa Shichijiro! Why are you still standing there?! Come over here!"
"Ugh… Mister! I'm at fault! Please save Ms. Amasa!" said the man in a suit in a displeased manner.
"Your name is Umekawa Shichijiro? What's your relationship with Umekawa Takashi?"
"Why? You know my uncle? You should know that the Umekawa Family is extremely powerful in Japan if you know my uncle! Save her now! Or my uncle will kill you!"
"Hmph! Kneel down!"
"Are you out of your mind? How dare you ask me to kneel down if you know that my uncle is Umekawa Takashi?!"
Slap!
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei slapped him.
"Even your uncle has to kneel down in front of me if he is here!"This was previously translated as Meichuan which I've decided to changePreviously: Zhizhang
Ouch!"
Umekawa Shichijiro spun on where he stood for three rounds before he fell and kneeled down in front of Chen Xiaobei. At the same time, blood and broken teeth fell from his mouth.
"Who… Who the hell is that kid? He got balls! I can't believe he just slapped Master Umekawa!"
"Not only does he have balls but he is also is crazy! Although Umekawa Organization is not as powerful as the Amasa Family, an ordinary person is not allowed to mess with them like that!"
"You are right… I heard the heir of Umekawa Organization is dead. His name was Umekawa Neiku. That is why Umekawa Shichijiro has been assigned as the next successor of Umekawa Organization! Slapping his face is equivalent to slapping the entire Umekawa Organization's face!"
....
Everyone around them were extremely tensed. They could not believe that Chen Xiaobei had just landed a slap on the successor of Umekawa Organization.
"You f*cking idiot! How dare you slap me?! You are so dead! I'm going to make sure that you will be sent to hell during your stay in Japan!" shouted Umekawa Shichijiro.
Until today, he had never been slapped by anyone, including his parents. He had never thought that a teenager was bold enough to slap him in front of everyone. With that being said, this incident was the biggest shame that he had ever experience in his life! Glaring at Chen Xiaobei with all the hatred that he had in him, it was as if he was about to devour Chen Xiaobei alive.
"Umekawa! Shut up!"
The butler pressed on Umekawa Shichijiro's shoulder to make sure that he would kneel properly in front of Chen Xiaobei.
"Lady Amasa is going to die if you continue to act in such rebellious manner! By that time, I will personally make sure that the entire Umekawa Family is sent to the grave!"
"I don't think Lady Amasa is going to hold on any longer! Quick! Mister! Please save her… I don't want to die…"
Suddenly, the doctor crawled toward Chen Xiaobei like a dog and begged him to save her. If Lady Amasa was dead, not only Umekawa Shichijiro would be killed, the doctor would be burned to ashes as well. Other than begging Chen Xiaobei, he had no other ways to live to see another day.
"Eh?"
Umekawa Shichijiro turned around and saw Lady Amasa's face turning pale. Judging from the way she breathed, it seemed like she was about to stop breathing really soon. Immediately, Umekawa Shichijiro was freaked out by the fact that Lady Amasa was going to depart from this world.
"Mister. I don't care the reason behind you slapping me! But! It's a human life over there! Can you please save her first?!"
"Hmph! You should have begged me from the beginning! I will not slap you if you do so! Now, get out from my face!"
Right after that, Chen Xiaobei walked toward the lady. He then took out a needle bag and started to plant all those silver needles on her.
"Is that acupuncture healing technique?"
The butler walked closer to Chen Xiaobei and paid attention to the way Chen Xiaobei healed Lady Amasa. Chen Xiaobei chose to ignore him because he wanted to focus on healing her.
At the back, Umekawa Shichijiro asked, "What is the acupuncture healing technique? Is it realiable?!"
"I heard it is a kind of unorthodox healing method! It's extremely unreliable!" said the doctor in a soft tone.
"Shit! Does that mean Lady Amasa is going to die no matter what?!"
"Lady Amasa's illness is really special! I don't think she is going to survive from it! But! Master Umekawa, you don't have to worry about it! She is his responsibility now since he decides to save her life! If Amasa Family wants to look for someone to blame for Lady Amasa's death, they will look for him instead of us!"
"Damn… I really shouldn't feel worried anymore!"
Inside his heart, Umekawa Shichijiro even wished that Amasa Yuki would die while Chen Xiaobei was curing her. If that happened, he would be able to witness Chen Xiaobei killed by the Amasa Family.
"Damn! This is a miracle! A miracle! Acupuncture healing method is truly amazing! It seems like Lady Amasa will be recovered from her sickness really soon!" exclaimed the butler.
"This…"
Umekawa Shichijiro and the doctor were completely taken aback by the fact that Chen Xiaobei actually cured Lady Amasa.
What about saying that acupuncture healing method was an unorthodox way of healing others?
What about saying that Amasa Yuki would not be able to survive from her sickness?
At the same time, the crowd could not believe what they had just witnessed as well. After a while, Amasa Yuki's paled face started to turn pink and she stopped trembling as well. Seemingly, the pain had just disappeared from her body. Chen Xiaobei then retrieved all the needles from her body.
"Mister? Is the treatment done? Why hasn't Lady Amasa come to?" asked the butler.
"Why the rush? It's not that difficult to wake her up actually!"
In a steady manner, Chen Xiaobei put away his needle pouch and placed her palm on Amasa Yuki's forehead.
"Mister… What are you trying to do?"
Seeing that the prestigious Lady Amasa being touched by a stranger, it was no wonder than the butler was slightly worried about it.
Buzz!
Suddenly, a barely noticeable electric current generated from Chen Xiaobei's palm and traveled to Amasa Yuki's forehead. It was aimed to destroy the Yin Qi within her. Clearly, Chen Xiaobei actually did not possess this ability, the electric current was generated from his wrath bolt ring. This Spiritual Item was forged with Pure Yang Thunder Catalyst. Though the electric current was weak, it was like kryptonite to Yin Qi. The electric current was like a Spiritual Snake as it destroyed all the Yin Qi while traveling across Amasa Yuki's forehead.
"Mmm…"
The moment the Yin Qi was gone, Amasa Yuki let out a light moan. The first thing that she saw when she opened up her beautiful eyes was Chen Xiaobei.
"Who are you? Are you the one that saved me?"
Chen Xiaobei did not answer her. Instead, he kept away his needle pouch and prepared to leave.
"Oi! You are so rude! I'm asking you a question! I'm asking who are you? Didn't you hear me?"
Amasa Yuki had live the life of a princess in her entire life. Normally, people would do whatever she asked them to do. Seeing that Chen Xiaobei ignored her, she was clearly angered by it.
"Lady Amasa! You finally regain your conscious!"
"Lady Amasa! How do you feel? We are almost scared to death by you!"
"Lady Amasa! Are you feeling better? Are you thirsty? Are you hungry?"
Suddenly, everyone gathered around her and found ways to please her.
"Get lost!"
Amasa Yuki swung her hands and everyone took a step back immediately. None of them dare to move a muscle.
"Who is that kid? Everyone is taking turns to serve me! I can't believe that he ignored me!" said Amasa Yuki in a displeased manner with her lips pursed.
"I heard he is an assistant of Li Organization in China. Do you want to check him out?" asked the butler.
"Do it! Do it properly!"
She stared at Chen Xiaobei back and grumbled, "What a rude guy!"
Li Xiang was already waiting for them at the door. He drove them to a small villa in the suburbs of Tokyo. They understood the purpose of their visit very well. So, once they arrived at the villa, they resume their discussion, picking up where they left off.
"During our last discussion, you said that there are three possible places we can find what we're looking for. Tell us about it." Chen Xiaobei asked.
When Jiang Ziya and Zhao Ritian glanced secretly at each other and listened intently, thinking that Chen Xiaobei meant the reincarnated Daji.
"The first place is the Tokyo Museum! The second place is the Emperor's Palace! The third place is the Divine Sovereign Sect!" Li Xiang said, "Except for the museum, it will be very difficult to get into the other two places. If we make any mistakes in any of the locations, we might alert our enemies! I'll explain a little bit more…"
"Wait!" Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes and said, "Old Jiang, go upstairs and find a computer for the live broadcast!"
"No! I want a part of this! I want to help!"
Jiang Ziya put on an earnest look. Inside, he was panicking.
Unfortunately, his cover had been blown by Chen Xiaobei. He would not be allowed to hear any key information.
"You don't have a single ounce of combat power. I would be grateful if you don't hinder our progress. Also, have you forgotten what you promised me?" Chen Xiaobei asked coldly.
"I…"
Jiang Ziya was frustrated but his hands were tied. So he turned away reluctantly and went upstairs.
Before he left, he shot Zhao Ritian a look.
Since Zhao Ritian's identity was still hidden, he would have to be the one to learn Chen Xiaobei's plans.
Chen Xiaobei waited until Jiang Ziya left the room before asking Li Xiang to continue.
"My suggestion is that we'll start from the easier one and then move on to the more difficult ones. We'll check them one by one! We'll begin with the museum. According to my investigation, the thing we are looking for is inside a bronze cauldron from the Han Dynasty. We'll go scout the place and then steal it when there's a window of opportunity!"
"Alright! Let's rest for a bit, eat lunch and then set out. Once we've confirmed the situation, we'll a move!"
Chen Xiaobei did not want to waste any time.
"Alright!" Li Xiang nodded and ordered his men to prepare lunch.
"Sifu… What have come here to find?" Zhao Ritian asked, baffled.
He thought that Chen Xiaobei had come for the reincarnated Daji. Why was he looking for bronze cauldron?
"We're looking for the missing piece of a map," Chen Xiaobei replied offhandedly.
He seemed to have other things on his minds so he did not explain any further.
"Map?" Zhao Ritian was completely taken aback. "I'm bored. I'll go see how Old Jiang is doing with the live stream in case he's slacking off."
"Mm."
Chen Xiaobei nodded as he took out his phone and looked up the internet for any news about the Japanese Emperor's wedding.
It was apparent that Chen Xiaobei was more concerned about rescuing Demonic Fox than finding the scale of Orochi.
During their brush with death in Paradise Island, Chen Xiaobei knew she was going to be his woman. After the Moonlight Cache rewound time, the first decision that Chen Xiaobei made was that he would rescue Demonic Fox and avenge her family even if it meant going against the entire of Japan.
Chen Xiaobei would never forget this promise.
It was because of that, Chen Xiaobei ignored Amasa Yuki. He did not want to be distracted by anyone or anything. He needed to be focused on fulfilling his promise!
On the second floor.
Zhao Ritian ran into Jiang Ziya's room and said in a low voice, "Is your intel wrong? Chen Xiaobei did not come here for Daji! He's looking for the missing piece of a map!"
"How… How could it be?"
Jiang Ziya was stunned.
"There was no way we were wrong! The Primordial Lord of Heaven confirmed it himself. Chen Xiaobei came here to find Daji!
"There is only one explanation!" Zhao Ritian said, "That missing piece may be the clue to find the reincarnated Daji!
"Right! That's must be it!" Jiang Ziya nodded and said, "Whatever Chen Xiaobei is looking for, we must be one step ahead of him!"
"Mm, I guess that's the only way to do it!" Zhao Ritian nodded and said, "Chen Xiaobei will act tonight. You must go get ready. Then help me keep watch!"
...
At 3 in the afternoon, they drove to Tokyo Museum.
As it was Japan's capital city's museum, it was quite big. Inside were cultural relics from all over the world.
There was one pavilion that displayed China's historical relics.
Most of these artifacts were robbed from China during the war and a small portion of it was obtained through other means.
For example, the targeted Sui Generis Dragon artifact was claimed to have been unearthed in the West of Japan.
"How could something that belongs to us Chinese be found in Japan?" Zhao Ritian asked.
"That's because of Xu Fu!" Li Xiang explained, "That time, Emperor Qin ruled the world. He wanted the formula of the heavenly pill. So, he sent Xu Fu to lead thousands of boys and girls on an excursion to look for it. They brought with them tons of livelihoods with them on the sea to seek the formula for it! They arrived in what is Japan today and Xu Fu crowned himself king. They stayed on in Japan and never returned to Qin! This Sui Generis Dragon artifact was crafted by Xu Fu himself! Xu Fu's descendants had hidden the thing we are looking for is hidden inside it!"
Zhao Ritian nodded and laughed cheekily. "At the end of the day, the Japanese's ancestors are Chinese! These unfilial children should be punished!"
"Hey, lay low!" Chen Xiaobei waved him off. "There's still three hours before closing time. Let's spread out, walk around and try not to look suspicious!"
The men nodded and dispersed to other pavilions.
Just as Chen Xiaobei was about to leave, someone tapped his shoulder.
"Chen Zhufeng! Do you still remember me?"
He turned around and saw a pretty, stylishly dressed Japanese girl smiling back at him.
"How do you know my name?" Chen Xiaobei raised his brows.
"It's just a name. How difficult is it to find out?"
The girl was Amasa Yuki.
To her, finding someone background information was a rather easy task.
"Why did you look for me?" Chen Xiaobei asked.
"Because you are special! I'm intrigued by you!"
Amasa Yuki linked her hands behind her back and looked at Chen Xiaobei with great interest.
"But I'm not interested in you. I'm sorry!"
Chen Xiaobei turned to leave.
"You are not interested in me but you are interested in the Sui Generis Dragon artifact, right?" Amasa Yuki smiled cheekily and said, "Come back and I'll tell you a secret!"
What kind of secret do you have for me?" Chen Xiaobei stopped in his tracks and asked. The Sui Generis Dragon artifact was something really important to him. No matter what, he would do everything it took to get to know more about it.
"Hehe… Now, you are interested in what I have to tell you, right? Promise me one thing and I will tell you this secret!" said Amasa Yuki.
"What kind of thing?"
"I would like you to help me to get rid of my sickness! This sickness that I have is really weird! Ever three to five days, I will fall into a coma. After that, my body's condition will worsen every time I regain consciousness! This time, they told me that my heart almost stopped beating! I really want to thank you for saving my life! Because of this sickness, I have gone to all the best hospital in this world. However, the result that I receive from the doctors is the same every time! According to the report, my body is really healthy and there's nothing wrong with it. That's why I'm here to beg you to save my life. Only you can help me to get rid of this sickness!" said Amasa Yuki while staring at Chen Xiaobei with a pitiful look.
"Alright! The secret that you are about to tell must be useful to me! If you lie to me, I will let you rot to death!"
"You are so cruel!"
Amasa Yuki then walked closer to Chen Xiaobei and whispered into his ears, "The Sui Generis Dragon artifact in front of you is fake!"
"What? It's a fake?!"
Taken aback, Chen Xiaobei could not believe the thing that Amasa Yuki just told him.
"Lower down your voice! This is supposed to be a huge secret!"
Immediately, Amasa Yuki lifted up her hands and covered Chen Xiaobei's mouth. Upon calming himself down, Chen Xiaobei used his Eight Diagrams Qi Observation Skill to check on the artifact. In the exhibition hall, most of the items were surrounded by golden and even golden purple aura. These aura proved that all those artifacts were the real deal and different colors represented different value.
However to his surprise, there were at least half of the artifacts in the exhibition halls were not surrounded by any aura. In other words, they were all fakes! The Sui Generis Dragon artifact was one of them! Chen Xiaobei had never expected that they ended up finding a fake Sui Generis Dragon artifact after spending so much time and resources to look it.
In order to make sure that they found a fake artifact instead of the real one, Chen Xiaobei activated his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes to look at the artifact again. Inside the Sui Generis Dragon artifact, there was no hidden compartment at all! It was enough to prove that the artifact was useless to them. They would be in deep trouble if they stole this artifact and found out that it was actually a fake.
"Do you know where is the real deal?" asked Chen Xiaobei.
"Of course I know! The real deal is at my house! I can bring you to have a look at it if you are interested! However, you must promise me that you will get rid of my sickness!"
"The real one is at your house? How is that even possible?"
Taken aback, Chen Xiaobei found it hard to believe in the thing that Amasa Yuki just said. However, when he thought about it again, he decided otherwise. Li Xiang once told him that the Amasa Family was the richest family in Japan. They were so rich that they could compare with the four richest families in China! For example, all the artifacts that Chen Xiaobei found in the Zhuang Family's treasure vault were enough to fill in an entire museum!
"My grandpa is an antiquarian. His hobby is to collect all kind of antiques from around the world! During the financial crisis, the royalty of Japan needed a lot of money. Immediately, my grandpa paid them a huge sum of money in exchange for a number of artifacts! Sui Generis Dragon is one of it! This matter can be considered as one of the top secrets in Japan. There are no outsiders know about it!"
"Alright! I promise you that I will help you to get rid of your sickness. Please bring me to see the real Sui Generis Dragon artifact!"
"No problem! Let's go!"
The two of them then departed to where Amasa Yuki lived. On the other hand, Li Xiang and the rest of them tagged along with them as well.
"I don't think it's appropriate for me to bring others to where I stay. Besides, I'm not allowed to let others know about this matter."
"Alright. Let me tell them about it."
Chen Xiaobei then strode toward them and whispered, "The plan for tonight is canceled. You guys should head back to the mansion first and wait for my update!"
After that, Chen Xioabei left with Amasa Yuki.
"What… What is going on? Why did they suddenly cancel the plan?" asked Jiang Ziya in a nervous manner.
"I have no idea as well… We should listen to Bro Bei and head back to the mansion first!" said Li Xiang while shaking his head.
"So… There is still a lot of time left before the sky goes dark. This is the first time for Old Jiang and I travel to another country. We want to take this opportunity to travel around this place. You guys go back first! We will return to the mansion in a cab later!" said Zhao Ritian.
"Okay. You should bring Cang Jingu with you. He can after all translate for you. With his help, you guys will at least not lose your way!" said Li Xiang.
"There's no need for that! We are not kids anymore! We know how to take a cab! You guys should really head back first. If Xiaobei is in need of your help, all of you can go and assist him right away! That should be your priority! Just leave us be for now!" said Jiang Ziya.
"Okay then… Call me if you need us!"
Li Xiang then nodded his head and left the place with Cang Jingu and Tanaka Tsuyoshi.
Immediately, Zhao Ritian asked Jiang Ziya, "What do you think about this matter?"
"This is a golden opportunity! Clearly, Chen Xiaobei canceled the plan because he wants to pursue that girl! This is a good time for us to do what we need to do! We will claim the Sui Generis Dragon artifact before he comes back! I want to see him cry in front of us!"
"Are you trying to say that we are going to act first before them?"
Right! Tonight is our night! Act fast once the sky goes dark! I will watch out for you! Once you get the Sui Generis Dragon artifact, put it in your treasure chest! Nobody will know we are the one that stole it!"
"Alright! Sounds like a plan to me!" said Zhao Ritian, nodded with a smile on his face.
.....
At Mount Haruna.
There was a huge mansion built beside it.
This was where Amasa Yuki lived.
"Yuki! You are back finally! We were looking for you all over the place!"
The moment the car entered the mansion, a man with bandages all over his face ran to her. This man was none other than Umekawa Shichijiro. Chen Xiaobei had just slapped him at the airport not too long ago.
"This is my home! Do I need your permission to go out?" asked Amasa Yuki in disgust.
"I'm just trying to show my concern. Did you go shopping or to the beauty salon? Look at your happy face! I'm pretty sure that something good happened to you!"
"Something good did happen. I went to pick a friend up!"
"Friend? What friend? Did you just go and personally to pick him up? Introduce to me quickly please!"
"There's no need to introduce to you! We are old friends!"
At that moment, Chen Xiaobei got out from the car with a smile on his face.
Why… Why is this son of a bitch here?"
The moment Umekawa Shichijiro saw Chen Xiaobei, he was spitting fire with his eyes.
"Umekawa! Don't think you can do whatever you like even though you are my grandpa's guest! Mr. Chen is the one that saved my life! I will kick you out from my house if you disrespect him again!" said Amasa Yuki.
"I… I'm at fault… Are you happy now?"
Umekawa Shichijiro's teeth were shattered by Chen Xiaobei earlier after all. However, he was not even allowed to complain about it despite his frustration.
"Mr. Chen. Let's go. Ignore him!"
Amasa Yuki glared at Umekawa Shichijiro and asked Chen Xiaobei to enter the house.
"Idiot!"
Staring at Chen Xiaobei's back in a furious manner, Umekawa Shichijiro whispered, "Just wait until I present the present to Master Amasa! I can easily kick you out of the house if he is happy with the gift that I give him!"
Inside the mansion.
It was a European style designed mansion. From the outside, it looked just like any other ordinary mansion. The moment Chen Xiaobei entered the mansion, he could feel that he just went into some other world. There were all kinds of artifacts from all over the world inside the mansion. Two-thirds of them came from China.
Firstly, China had a long history. That was why there were a lot of artifacts laying around.
Secondly, there was a high chance that the owner of the mansion favored Chinese history more than anything else.
Using the Eight Diagram Qi Observation Skill to inspect the mansion, Chen Xiaobei found out that there were no fake artifacts. And most of the items were surrounded by a golden and purple aura! One could see that the owner of the mansion was passionate about collecting artifacts. Only rare artifacts were allowed to be displayed here.
"Sui Generis Dragon artifact!"
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei locked on to his target. The artifact was a square bronze cauldron with dragon prints on it. It was inside a specially made glass container. Seeing that there was golden purple Qi emanating from it, Chen Xiaobei knew that it was the real deal. Immediately, Chen Xiaobei activated his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes and saw there was a hidden compartment within it.
"Eh? What is that?"
Baffled by it, the scale of Orochi was nowhere to be found inside the hidden compartment. Instead, he saw a purple rosary inside it. It seemed the rosary was made of jade stone but the color of it was really odd. Chen Xioabei felt like he had seen it somewhere.
It was Yin Qi!
The color of the rosary was exact the ly same as the Yin Qi that Chen Xiaobei saw in Amasa Yuki's forehead. The strange part was the rosary was perfectly sealed inside the hidden compartment. In other words, this rosary was not the cause of her illness.
"You don't look like one of those antiquarian. You should really look at your face when you lay your eyes on those antiques!" said Amasa Yuki with her lips pursed.
Seemingly, she was not pleased that Chen Xiaobei put all attention on the antiques instead of her. She could be considered a beautiful Japanese rich lady. To her surprise, Chen Xiaobei had not look at her ever since he entered the mansion. Usually, people would treat her like an idol. Chen Xiaobei was the first one that gave her cold treatment. Clearly, Amasa Yuki was deeply disturbed by it. She even started to doubt that she was not that pretty anymore.
"Yuki! I heard that the man that saved you earlier is here. Is this the one?"
An old man with black and gray kimono and unique Japanese clogs strode toward Chen Xiaobei slowly. Clearly, this old man was none other than Amasa Yuki's grandpa—the head of the Amasa Family, the richest man in Japan, Amasa Hiko! There were a group of gentlemen that were around fifty to sixty years old trailing behind him. They definitely looked like successful people. The moment they entered the mansion, they laid their eyes on Chen Xiaobei.
They all wanted to see who was the one that saved Amasa Yuki. With the help of the Amasa Family, Chen Xiaobei could actually become a very successful individual in Japan since he did a huge favor for Amasa Family.
"Let me do the introduction. This is the person that saved my life, Mr. Chen! This is my grandpa and these are his friends! All of them are antiquarians!" said Amasa Yuki.
"I heard that Mr. Chen is from China. AS the saying goes, heroes are usually born within young men! You are so young and your healing skill is really something! I believe you will have a bright future ahead of you!" said Amasa Hiko.
"That's right… That's right…"
Everyone around Amasa Hiko kept on nodding. All of them were thinking about how to please Chen Xiaobei later. On the other hand, all Chen Xiaobei did was nod at Amasa Hiko. He had no intention to please others. He then continue to fix his gaze on the Sui Generis Dragon artifact.
"I'm really surprise that Mr. Chen is interested in antiques as well!
Amasa Hiko did not mind to take the initiative to walk towards Chen Xiaobei.
He then said, "This Sui Generis Dragon artifact is one of my favorite items…"
Before waiting Amasa Hiko finished his sentence, Chen Xiaobei interrupted him.
"Can I have it?" asked Chen Xiaobei.
"What?!"
Everyone in the mansion were taken aback.
"This kid is too damn arrogant! Mr. Amasa really likes this piece of antique! It's not possible that he will give it out for free!"
"That's right! Does he really think that he can do whatever he wants after saving Ms. Amasa?"
"They always say that Chinese is the most humble race! I don't think he know what humble is!"
...
All those antiquarian started to criticize Chen Xiaobei. They were not pleased that Chen Xiaobei made such an absurd request.
"There's saying in Chinese, one should not take away a person's most prized possession! Mr. Chen! Don't you think you just cross the line by making such an absurd request?" said Amasa Hiko in a displeased manner.
"It's true that Yuki's life is really important for me! But my collection has nothing do with it!"
"I don't you will understand if I explain the connection between these two matters to you. I can promise you that your granddaughter will never be plagued by the illness again if you give the Sui Generis Dragon artifact to me! If you don't believe in me, forget everything that I just said. Don't come and look for me if you granddaughter is tortured by the illness again!"
"This…"
Amasa Hiko was left in dilemma.
Suddenly, Umekawa Shichijiro walked into the room.
"The item that I'm about to give it to you will help with Yuki's illness! We don't need him!"
After that, there were two people carried a tray into the room.
968
