Chapter 11: The young master is powerless
"Hey, what is he doing here..."
"Isn't he that the ruthless and perverted, bastard?"
"Shhh, don't say too loudly. He once ripped a person's tongue just because that person said that his hairstyle was boring."
"That's infamous Chen Jie for you."
"If this world was a novel, he would be the perfect villain."
Murmurs were immediately heard as soon as Chen Jie entered the hall. People looked at him, many emotions reflecting through their eyes.
He could see amusing gazes, some gazes filled with hatred, and some filled with disgust. It was obvious that he wasn't invited there at all.
To all those gazes Bozo replied with a smile. It was as if he wasn't the person, towards whom all those gazes were directed.
However, Bozo also was feeling disgusted while looking at these humans. He had an urge to just get out of this place.
Just as he was thinking about all of this his eyes paused on a middle-aged person. This person possessed black hair, brown eyes, and a beard that was slightly trimmed.
This was Xiong Lee. One of the strongest members of the Xiong household and Yiyi's uncle.
Just staying in his presence makes one feel difficult to breathe, but of course, he was hiding his aura at the moment.
Beside Xiong Lee was another man, who looked to be around his mid-twenties. He was wearing a three-piece formal suit, each of it being white. There were a few decorations on that formal suit, with a few gold strips making it look extremely fancy. Along with the red tie, with white additional gold strips was perfect with the cloth.
On top of that the buttons, of the suit were gold with small pieces of diamonds attached to it. Every part of this pale man was screaming- Young master! He was the one who was going to marry Xiong Yiyi.
With a smile on his face, he walked toward Chen Jie. A smile filled with mockery.
Xiong Lee, who stood next to him, made sure that no danger came in this man's way.
"So you are Chen Jie. Nice meeting you, I'm Feng Sheng."
Feng Sheng greeted Bozo, who simply nodded acknowledging Feng Sheng's greeting. Seeing this Fang Sheng raised his right eyebrow while looking at Bozo as if he were looking at a circus monkey.
"I have heard quite a lot about you, seems like you're very popular, but-"
"Can't say the same about you." Bozo almost immediately replied, cutting Fang Sheng in the middle, as a result, he froze for a second.
But the smile on his face that had disappeared instantaneously reappeared.
"Well, I'm not as great as your "Highness". I must be as puny as an ant in front of "Highness". After all, who can compare to you 'Lord'?" Feng Sheng said in a sarcastic tone. It was clear that he wanted to provoke Bozo
"I really can't compare to a person who has achieved greatness and reached qi deviation now can I?" His mocking smile grew wider, as he continued making eye contact with Chen Jie.
Bozo slowly clenched his fist, simultaneously sighing.
'Well, whatever this qi deviation is it really has made this body helpless. I can't do anything to this person, at the least for now.'
[Good choice. It's good that you are smart.]
The second he turned his back Feng Sheng continued speaking.
"By your "Highness's" action, we all can clearly see at what level of greatness, you have achieved with the help of Qi deveation." The hall erupted in laughter as they heard his words.
'Never mind, can I just trash this bastard.', questioned Bozo as he once again clenched his fist this time clenching it so hard that, his palm started to bleed.
[...]
[Are you dumb? Should I retract my praise?]
'Nah. You are dumb. Imagine… If I just kill the bastard then the marriage would automatically stop won't it?'
[Oh, really?! Bravo… You must be a genius!]
'I know.' said Bozo internally.
[Shut up! Then genius, tell me how are you going to kill him?!]
[Not only Feng Sheng is strong, he is guarded by a strong man, Xiong Lee.]
[So tell me, how ware you going to kill him?]
'Why are you present then?! If I'm going to do all the thinking part, then what is your use?!'
[Argh!]
'Sigh, since you really seem so useless I will give you a plan!'
[...?]
'How about this, you give me a weapon or something similar to that which can increase my strength by great margins. Then I will kill him!'
"Muhahahahaha!", he ended up bursting into laughter, uncontrollably, startling everyone present there.
"Sigh, he has finally lost it. Just let him be." At that moment Xiong Lee said, his voice laced with pity. Some people nodded while others disagreed internally but had to nod.
They then proceed to make themselves busy with work and in preparation for marriage.
[Unfortunately, you don't possess enough TP, to get any weapon from the shop. In fact, you haven't even completed a single mission to gain access to the shop.]
'Shop? You mean I can buy stuff from you?'
[Yes.]
'So after completing one mission, I will be able to access the shop?'
[Yes.]
[So basically, right now, you are nothing but a powerless junk, incapable of even talking harsh. Lol.]
'Powerless? Pfft.'
'Did you forget?'
'This body belongs to the so-called Chen family's heir.'
'An heir should possess many things, right? If the Chen family is as big as you portray it to be, this body should have many cards up its sleeve right?'
[Well...]
'And since this body's original owner was supposed to be smart which I still doubt then he would definitely have such things.'
'Heck, he might even have a secret group or organization through which he is planning to take over the world.'
[H-how-]
[How did you know?]
'…'
'Huh?'
Bozo was surprised by the system's response. The same could be said about the system who wasn't expecting Bozo to think that way!
