Chereads / Extreme Master ChenYang / Chapter 15 - The Arhat

Chapter 15 - The Arhat

Logically speaking, after Chen Yang's intimidation, One-Eye should have behaved himself, as their strengths were on completely different levels. But Chen Yang miscalculated one thing – One-Eye's identity. One-Eye was a secular disciple of the Shaolin Temple, with a group of formidable senior and junior martial brothers.

One-Eye was used to being the king, the boss. But now he had suffered consecutive humiliations at Chen Yang's hands, which was intolerable and a huge disgrace for him.

So after Chen Yang left, One-Eye made a call to his senior martial brother, the Immovable Arhat.

"Brother!" One-Eye's voice trembled slightly.

A cold male voice came from the other end, "What's the matter?"

"Brother, I'm in trouble," said One-Eye.

"What kind of trouble?" The man's voice remained cold.

This senior brother, the Immovable Arhat, was like an emotionless figure, emanating a chilling aura. One-Eye had always found his senior brother too arrogant, so he would not bother him unless it was absolutely necessary.

But undeniably, the senior brother was an extremely formidable existence. 

One-Eye took a deep breath and said solemnly, "In Binhai City, I've encountered a master."

The man said coldly, "The land of China is full of talented fighters. As long as you don't provoke them, what does it have to do with you?"

One-Eye said, "But I have provoked him, and now it's a fight to the death between us. Brother, if you don't step in, this junior fears he may not survive this ordeal. Please help me, Brother!"

The man fell silent for a long while before asking, "What's this master's name? How formidable is he?"

One-Eye said, "His name is Chen Yang, recently returned from Africa. He was likely a mercenary or assassin before. Just today..."

He then described Chen Yang's feat of turning a wine glass into wood, a display of his formidable martial arts skill. Of course, One-Eye did not mention that it was Chen Yang intimidating him, but rather claimed that Chen Yang was aggressively extorting money from him.

"Brother, if I don't give him three million by the day after tomorrow, he'll kill me," One-Eye said. "I'm a secular disciple of Shaolin, and many in the martial world know this. If I really submit to him, it would damage Shaolin's reputation, wouldn't it?"

"Turning a wine glass into wood! He is indeed a master. I'll come over immediately," said the Immovable Arhat, before hanging up.

One-Eye let out a long sigh of relief. With his senior brother taking action and all his connections and manpower, he had nothing to fear from Chen Yang.

As for lying himself, he wasn't worried that his senior brother would find out.

Since his senior brother was already coming, even if he discovered the lie, he wouldn't just stand idly by.

When Chen Yang returned to the rental house at 11 pm, Su Qing had already gone to bed.

Chen Yang felt rather disappointed.

He always had a special affection for Su Qing.

The next morning, Chen Yang sent Su Qing to work again.

Having a car to pick her up and drop her off was extremely convenient.

Su Qing had always been troubled because she was too beautiful. She often encountered harassment when taking public transport. Now with the car, she was much more relaxed.

After sending Su Qing to work, Chen Yang went to pick up Tang Qingqing and Lin Qingxue at the Willow Villa.

These girls were clearly late again.

After getting in the car, Tang Qingqing complained to Chen Yang, "Can't you be on time for once?"

Chen Yang just laughed it off.

Tang Qingqing said, "Sending your female neighbor again?"

Chen Yang replied with a chuckle, "Hehe, you're too smart, Qingqing."

Tang Qingqing felt a tinge of jealousy and said, "How come we don't see you being so enthusiastic and punctual when it comes to sending us two beauties?"

Chen Yang only said, "Well, it's on the way!"

Lin Qingxue remained rather quiet, having grown resigned to Chen Yang's behavior. But she couldn't reprimand him too much, only saying, "From tomorrow onwards, Qingqing and I will drive ourselves to work."

Tang Qingqing nodded, "Okay!" But then she felt a bit troubled, "But what about One-Eye and Qi Jiaojiap?"

Chen Yang immediately reassured them, "Don't worry, One-Eye and Qi Jiaojiap won't dare cause any more trouble."

"Why?" The two women asked in unison.

As he drove, Chen Yang explained, "Oh, it's like this. Last night, I went to see One-Eye and lectured him on many principles. Eventually, he was moved to tears and promised me he wouldn't dare misbehave again."

Tang Qingqing and Lin Qingxue understood that even though Chen Yang liked to embellish, he must have reached some kind of understanding with One-Eye last night.

The two women finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After the One-Eye incident, Lin Qingxue and Tang Qingqing considered Chen Yang as one of their own. Moreover, Lin Qingxue even gave Chen Yang a bank card with 100,000 yuan as a reward.

Chen Yang gladly accepted the card, thinking to himself that this young lady was quite decent and a good boss.

Although naive, Lin Qingxue was not stupid. She knew Chen Yang was an invaluable asset, so she needed to treat him well and keep him close. Additionally, Lin Qingxue let Chen Yang continue using the BMW.

He didn't need to pick them up for work in the morning, and if he had something else to do, he didn't need to send them home after work either.

Not only that, but Lin Qingxue was also concerned about Chen Yang's living situation. She said, "I have an old house that's been vacant. If you don't mind, you can live there. It's a two-bedroom, and after some cleaning up, it would be quite nice."

Chen Yang was taken aback. No way!

For Chen Yang, the rental house was his paradise. He had no desire to move.

He immediately declined with a righteous tone, "President, I hope to live in a house I can afford with my own hands. As a man, a true gentleman, I need to have some backbone."

Lin Qingxue paused for a moment, then said, "It's not bad that you have this desire for self-reliance. Alright, I won't force you."

Beside her, Tang Qingqing mocked, "Yeah, right. Qingxue, he has no backbone. He just can't bear to leave his female neighbor."

Exposed by Tang Qingqing, Chen Yang could only laugh sheepishly.

Lin Qingxue immediately realized the truth and couldn't help but feel amused, yet curious. Just what did this female neighbor of Chen Yang look like to make him so attached?

The two women considered themselves quite beautiful, but they had never seen this guy show any attachment to them.

With the 100,000 yuan, Chen Yang's finances became much more comfortable. After work, he happily went to pick up Su Qing, who had gotten used to his pick-up and drop-off service.

In the car, Chen Yang said, "Qing Jie, we've been eating out every day, which is not only unhygienic but also quite expensive. Why don't we rent another room and turn it into a kitchen? What do you think?"

Su Qing was immediately tempted. Renting another room to solve their meal issues sounded quite cost-effective.

Before, Su Qing had just eaten casually outside, but now with Chen Yang accompanying her every day, their food expenses had increased significantly.

"Sounds good!" Su Qing nodded in agreement.
