41. Red Envelope Group Of 3 Realms 1-32

In a world of shallow-minded, materialistic mortals, what would one from humble beginnings – whose face had been stomped on, spat on, oppressed for the longest while by the arrogant, pampered upper echelons of society – do, when a mysterious application pops up on a brand new phone that was meant to be the birthday gift of an ungrateful girlfriend? What if the application takes the form of a chatroom where its occupants, bearing the names of mythical, fictional beings, start giving out 'Red Packets', all the while spouting nonsense?

It all started in the little garden of Green Vine University. Chen Xiaobei carefully took out a brand-new iPhone 6 from his pocket. He held it in his hands, smiling goofily.

"Happy Birthday, Bingbing!" Chen said.

It had always been Yao Bingbing's dream to own an iPhone 6 but she was now gazing at it in disdain.

"I'm not going to accept this shitty phone, I'm breaking up with you!" Bing said.

Boom!!

Chen felt like thunder had struck him. His mind went blank. He could not believe that the girl standing in front of him was his girlfriend of six months. Chen was a village kid, he grew up in a rural town, and was familiar to a life of hardship. In order to purchase this mobile phone, he had to skip classes, work part time and set aside half of his living expenses for three months. He never expected to be met by this kind of response.

"Why?!" Chen asked, furious.

"Because you are poor!" Bing said. She held up her handbag and said sarcastically, "This is limited edition LV handbag. I could buy a hundred of you with this. And I can easily get this, and many more goodies -- as much as I'd like -- because my new boyfriend will pay for it! Is that reason good enough?"

"I never would have taken you for this kind of girl!" Chen said angrily.

"Don't be silly! This is the reality of life," she continued, her tone condescending, "Blame this bad incarnation of yours. You were born of poor donkey parents, you have always been destined to have a crappy future. I will never become the daughter-in-law of your poor-ass family."

"Woman, you can lay it on me, but you have no right to talk about my family like that!" Chen glared so intently at her that he could have fired lasers out of his eyes right through Bing's body.

"You… What's with that look? Are you going to beat me up in public?" Bing was frightened. This was her first time seeing Chen's knife-like stare. historical

"No, no. I'm not going to beat you up. But someday, I will make you kneel in front of me, as you regret this decision and beg for forgiveness!" Chen growled icily.

"Are you in a trance? From this moment onwards, till the day I die, you are a foreign existence that will have nothing to do with me," Bing huffed and started to walk towards a BMW that was parked quite a distance from they were.

The car door opened, and a guy pulled her into the car, and grabbed her thigh.

"Shi Mingwei?!"

Chen's eyes turned into blazing charcoals. He never expected Bing's new boyfriend to be Shi. That guy was Chen's classmate, and he was rich. His family owned a jewelry business. He bullied Chen on daily basis and he had just robbed him of his girlfriend. Things had escalated to a whole new level.

"F*ck this! I will have my revenge!" Chen said angrily, clenching a fist.

"You're just a small-time farmer, you are not qualified to even fight me." Shi put his hand out of the window and flipped Chen off, his middle finger raised over the car roof. Chen had never felt so humiliated in his life before.

"Shi! You f*cking pig!" Chen was so angry that he almost flung the new phone at him.

Ding!

Right at that moment, the brand-new cellphone's screen lit up. "Do iPhones normally turn themselves on? Could it be a replica?" Chen frowned, about to toss the cell phone again, for an entirely different reason.

Ding!

Ding!

Ding!

In the next seconds, a continuous stream of messages popped up on the cell phone's screen. Chen was confused as he scanned through the messages.

Chang'e goddess just sent you a Red Envelope.

Bull Demon King just sent you a Red Envelope.

Xiangyu The King just sent you a Red Envelope.

King of Hell…

The messages flooded his phone. It was as if he had just hit the jackpot.

"Are they a group of maniacs? Their names sound funky," Chen said to himself.

He quickly opened the chatting application and tried to snatch as many Red Envelopes as possible. There were others in the chat room too, apparently snatching away at them too. Chen checked on his cell phone's screen with a gloomy look. He did not get any Red Envelopes even as the messages kept going.

"Maybe all these people are a group of guys with strong arms. Wizards who have been single for thirty years. How am I going to compete against them?" The fact that he couldn't get any Red Envelopes was like a second fatal blow to him. He increased his tapping speed like there was no tomorrow.

Ding!

Congratulation! You got Monkey King's Red Envelope. You received three monkey furs of prosperity. It has been deposited inside your treasure chest.

"Shit, All I got is some furs?!" There was nothing he could have done.

"How can I receive monkey furs from the Red Envelope? Is this some kind of new technology?" Chen had never used such an advanced cell phone before. So, he decided to give it a try. He found the treasure chest icon and clicked it. Three monkey furs showed up on his screen. There was a sentence under the picture –

[This is the monkey fur of prosperity. It allows you to shapeshift into anything you want. Do you wish to claim it?].

Chen clicked yes and a golden monkey fur appeared on his palm.

"What the f*ck is this?!" Chen screamed.

Even though Chen had never used an advanced cellphone before, he was not so igorant that he would believe that cellphones can actually produce something solid out of thin air. It totally defied his rudimentary knowledge of physics.

"Could it be….that this group of maniacs are actually real gods and goddesses? But then again, Xiangyu The King and Bull Demon King are in the group as well. They were not gods. Chen was very confused. He read the name of the group, 'Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms'. By his general knowledge, he knew only a little about the Three Realms which refers to the realms of heaven, hell, and earth. Other than gods and goddesses, there were different demons and humans inside the group as well.

Historically famous people like Lord Guan, Qin Qiong, Xiangyu The King were in the group. However, Chen was baffled when he saw that Li Bai and Du Fu were in the group as well. When it came to the demon side, there were well-known demons that Chen recognized; Bull Demon King, Skeletal Queen, Spider Demon and many more. Chen was absolutely baffled, and perturbed, when he saw all those well-known demons in the group.

"It's no wonder I couldn't get any Red Envelopes. There are tens of thousands of members inside this group. Well, I couldn't care less. Let me try out this Monkey Fur first."

Chen calmed himself down, lifted up the Monkey Fur and said, "I dare you to create an extra hand on my body for me to snatch more Red Envelopes."

Poof!

Chen blew at the Monkey Fur. A real hand with flesh and blood sprouted out of his body. It could even be moved freely as well, as if knowledge on how to use it was instantly obtained.

"What the f*ck?!"

At least he now knew that this suspiciously named group was real.

Then Chen slapped himself in frustration. "Damn it! Why did I make such a stupid wish? How am I going to face others with an extra hand on my body? Should I get it amputated now?"

Ding!

Magical effect of Monkey Fur: Three minutes remaining. "Oh! There's a time limit! I was scared to death!" Chen sighed in relief.

Theoretically speaking, if the magical effect was perpetual, I could very well wish for a mountain of gold and silver, and solve all my problems.

"Shit! I should get back to snatching more Red Envelopes!"

Chen smacked himself on the forehead and started to use all three hands to tap on the phone's screen frenzily. All of them were actual deities. Even a small thing like Monkey Fur was precious. There was no way that he was missing this golden opportunity.

"They are way too good at this. There's no way I can fight against them."

Three minutes had passed, and Chen still had not gotten anything. His cellphone vibrated for a second before the third hand vanished. Chen jumped up and down gleefully.

"Got it! Double kill!"

Ding!

Congratulatiosn on getting Lord Lao Zi's Red Envelope. You have received Eight Diagram of Godly Prediction. It has been deposited into your treasure chest.

Ding!

Congratulations on getting Moon Lord's Red Envelope. You have received three Charms of Marriage. It has been deposited into your treasure chest. Chen was euphoric. After that, the cellphone's screen that was flooded with constant notifications of Red Envelopes gradually came to a stop. A portrait popped up.

Lord Lao Zi: Uhhumm. Hello, fellow friends. Good evening. Today is a good day to release the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms. From today onwards, this Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms will be our new home.

(Let's just skip the 8000 more words uttered by this old guy and save ourselves some time).

Jade Emperor: Good speech, Lord Lao Zi. (Three emojis of applause followed)

Sanzang: I support the Jade Emperor.

Xiangyu The King: You are full of shit! I'm going to continue giving out more Red Envelopes.

Bull Demon King: YuYu, I found a divine garment with golden threads. I'm going to send it to you right now!

Jade Face Fox: Brother bull. You are so full of love. (Heart-shaped emoji)

Princess Iron Fan: (Three knives emoji).

They started to flood the forum with their conversations.

"I don't think they'll be giving out the Red Envelopes any time soon." Chen quickly swapped his SIM card from his old cellphone to the new cellphone. Then, he rushed to the bus stop. He didn't even check the contents of two Red Envelopes that he had just received. He only had his revenge in mind.

It all happened at the Billionaire Karaoke.

It was BingBing'a birthday. Shi Mingway had organized a super luxurious celebration for her. He had invited around thirty classmates to join the celebration. The air was full of excitement.

"Give her a kiss! Give her a kiss!"

Having consumed some alcohol, the crowd had started to get really high. They were egging Shi and Bing on. Right at that moment, the door of the karaoke box opened. In came Chen.

"Why the hell are you here? You're not welcome here!" Bing snapped coldly.

"Asshole, have you not given up? I'm the one who Bing loves. Please stop bringing shame to yourself by trying to make a scene here!" Shi drawled lazily.

Chen shook his head and said calmly, "Please don't misunderstand my intentions. It has come to my realization that Bing and I are not meant to be together. We are of different worlds. There will be no happiness if I force her to be with me. I'm here to wish you and Bing a happy relationship. Also, to witness your happy moment." historical

"I'm glad that you know your place. If you have come here to make a mess, I will make your life difficult!" Shi huffed, a slap-worthy smirk plastered on his face.

"Oh, where were we? Let's continue!"

"A kiss! A kiss!"

"Master Shi! Give her a French kiss!"

"Hold the kiss for three minutes long!"

People around them were getting more and more excited. They took out their cellphones already prepared to record this moment. Shi swaggered towards Bing with a "wannabe-cool-guy" face. He used his left hand to hold Bing's waist and his right hand to lift her chin up. Then, he proceeded to deliver a passionate French kiss. At the same time, Chen held a monkey fur in his palm and said, "Let there be a pile of shit in his mouth!"

Whoosh!

Chen blew on the monkey fur at their direction. "Shi, what's in your mouth?" Bing asked and her eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

"Erm…"

Shi felt his own mouth filling up with something horrifying. His cheeks puffed up.

Blargh!

Shi puked out a stream of diluted, stinky, yellowish shit, smack on Bing's face.

All his classmates were stunned. They were frozen on the spot. "What the f*ck! Master Shi! Did you just shit from your mouth?!" Chen cleared his throat and took out his camera to take pictures of this hardcore, intense moment.

"Shit? He barfed shit! Blargh! I can't take it anymore. I'm gonna throw up!"

"What the f*ck! How is it possible for him to vomit shit? It's too damn disgusting!"

"Let me out! I'm gonna die!"

All his classmates rushed out from the karaoke box. Shi looked like a total idiot. He smacked his lips to make sure that it was shit. He opened up his eyes wide and looked at his startled girlfriend. Both of them keeled over and started to vomit at the same time.

Ding!

Three more hours before the monkey fur loses its magical effects.

"Well, they'll be suffering for quite some time!" Chen left the scene, his nose pinched together.

Just then, he received more notifications. After leaving the karaoke, he broke out in laughter, almost fainting as he ran out of breath. Chen was elated as he thought of how the merciless gold digger Bing and the arrogant punk Shi were suffering inside. Of course, he will never forget that it was only possible because of the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms.

"This monkey fur is good stuff! Sadly, there's only one left, I'll have to use it wisely. I should go to a place to check out the other two other two packets I received earlier on."

Chen calmed himself down and ran to a back alley to check his cellphone. "Let's take a look at The Grand Supreme Elderly Lord's Eight Diagram of Godly Prediction! Lord Lao Zi is the head of SanQing. His position is super high. His stuff should be super good!"

Chen opened up his treasure chest and pressed the receive button excitedly.

Wee!

A ray of bright light shone out from his cellphone and the light started to take form before his eyes.

Taichi, two complementary forces, four aggregates, five elements, eight diagrams, ten decimal cycle, twelve duodecimal cycle, twenty-four solar terms, stars of heaven, and a myriad of living creatures. The rentire universe was in front of him.

"Cool! Hollywood's CGI has nothing on this!" Chen was really impressed.

Ding!

The owner of Eight Diagrams of Godly Prediction can predict misfortune and fortune, deliver good and luck, analyze Feng Shui formation. Do you want to use it?

"Oh yes! Of course I want to use it!"

A mythical looking circular symbol marked itself on the back of Chen's hand when he clicked on his cellphone. He raised his left hand and started to make some predictions, having had the divine knowledge instantaneously placed in his mind, by some supernatural force.

"Come on! Time for the master to foresee today's luck."

Chen already had a full understanding on the inner workings of the Eight Diagrams. Those amateur, those bogus Feng Shui Masters were nothing, compared to him. He was the true Feng Shui Master now. All of a sudden, his eyes flashed open and he said in great surprise, "Ooh, romance is coming from the south."

Just as he finished foreseeing his luck, he saw an extremely gorgeous lady running towards him. Her facial features were delicate beyond compare, her white, silky skin even reflecting light. Her tall frame and slender body were like those of a Victoria's secret model's. Her gracefully long and fair legs were out of this world. A single glance of her would ignite any man.

Chen recognized her and said, "Lan Mengchen. One of the four hottest girls in school! A total of four hottest girls were chosen in the school forum. She is known for her perfect facial features and her off-the-charts cool factor. She is extremely low profile, and even with the powerful research capabilities, no negative rumors about her could be found. She was a well-known goddess among the students. When Bing was still with Chen, he never really paid much attention to her. Looking at Lan now, he was truly entranced by her beauty. Compared to her, Bing was a pile of garbage.

"Help! Please help me, mister…" she screamed as she ran into Chen's embrace.

"So soft…." Her generous, soft chest was pressing against Chen's body. Blood nearly spurted out of his nose.

"Soft?" Lan was too nervous to realize what he was talking about. She kept turning her head back, her beautiful eyes looking out for something behind her.

Cough!*

"It's nothing…" Chen shook his head and asked, "what happened to you?"

"Hmm! Let me tell you!" A fierce looking man with red hair approached him. He said arrogantly, "She belongs to me, and she is going to accompany me tonight!"

He had at least ten followers with him. At one glance, Chen knew that they were a group of gangsters.

"Mister, please save me. I will definitely repay for your good deed!" Lan tugged at Chen's sleeve nervously.

"Erm…Miss, I'm outnumbered here, how am I going to save you?" Chen felt sweat dripping down his head. He was just a normal university student, and he had almost failed his physical benchmark test. There was no way that he could fight against this group of gangsters.

"Novels always say that when a gorgeous lady is in danger, the male protagonist will definitely save her." Lan was very anxious. It looked like she was simply looking for someone to get her out of this mess, and she came to Chen, because there was no one else around.

"Er, miss, we are in the real world, not a novel. If I try to play hero here, I will be beaten up like a helpless dog," Chen said, there was unmistakable tension in his voice.

"Asshole, if you don't want to be beaten, get lost! Don't stop our Fire "Grim Reaper" Boss from his pretty prize!" A bald guy stepped out from the group of followers, uttering those words menacingly.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Chen stared at the boss with his eyes wide open and said, "Don't come any closer, I can sense the spilling of blood close by!"

"What do you mean by a blood spill? Your empty words don't scare me! Pffft!" The bald guy said. He started to walk towards them furiously.

POM!!

A beer bottle fell right on top of the bald guy's head. The sound broke the silence of the night.

Foosh!

Red hot blood was gushing from his head, not showing any signs of slowing down. "Ouch….This f*cking hurts…." He dropped and rolled on the ground in agonizing pain, clutching his head.

"Do you believe me now? I told you there will be a blood spill but you chose not to believe me." Chen said, confident.

Everyone around him was stunned. The back alley was near the karaoke. It was pretty normal for bottles to fall from the building. But, how did Chen know when and where this bottle would drop?

"Can you foresee the future?" Lan blinked her eyes, they were as shiny as the stars in the sky. She was curious.

Chen stiffened, and then nodded his head and said, "Yes. I know a little about foreseeing the future. If you are interested, I can predict your future for you."

"Bastard! Stop making up all this shit! Just a one-time prediction and you consider yourself a true master?" said the Fire "Grim Reaper" Boss.

"You don't believe me?" Chen looked at the face of the leader of the group and looked into his past. "Both of your parents have passed away. You have walked alone for ten years. Also, you have suffered a lot to earn this position. Other than that, you are living a luxurious life right now. But, there's something in your mind that is currently pressuring you. You want to be more powerful. Am I correct?"

After listening to all these, all his followers were even more stunned that before. All of them knew that their boss had become a gangster ten years ago. And, that he had slowly worked his way up to become the boss. Above him, there were more powerful gangs pressuring him. And, it was hard for him to expand his power. Chen got everything right. This was a truly divine prediction. However, the boss shook his head and said, "Everyone knows about my past. That's not a prediction. Are you treating me like an idiot?!"

"But, I'm not from the underground world." Chen twitched his lips and said, "Fine. More recent news then. Hmm.. Your wife left you yesterday! She is a good woman. Also, she left because she was angry at you!"

"What the f*ck is happening right now? How do you even know that?" The boss was stunned, his eyes wide. The incident had just happened last night. He had not shared this with anyone because it was a shameful thing. He didn't expect Chen to know about this matter. This was crazy.

Again, everyone around him was stunned by what he just said. Lan's mouth was half opened as she stared at Chen with her beautiful eyes. She looked really cute.

"Master, you are my dear master! I'm impressed by your prediction ability! I'm now convinced!"

The boss' attitude toward him had completely changed. He begged Chen, "I regret making her leave me, Master, please teach me how to make her come back to me. Please!"

"I can help you but you must promise not to disturb my friend again." Chen tapped Lan's shoulder. Lan was still in his embrace, stunned.

"Don't worry, master! If you are willing to help me, from this moment onwards, you will be my dear brother and she will be my sister-in-law. I will respect and love the both of you!" The boss thumped on his chest as he made his promise.

"What kind of nonsense is that? What do you mean by sister-in-law?" Lan snapped back to reality and her face reddened. She quickly pulled away from Chen. The combination of shyness and her beauty was perfect. It made her so lovely. Chen's heart was racing. The gangster around him were moved by her beautiful movements. But, Chen was beside her, none of them dared to make a move on her.

"Wait here! I need some time alone!" Chen instructed. Then, he walked away from them. He turned on his cellphone and found the three charms of marriage inside his treasure chest. He figured these charms will be able to help him.

[Please write down the names of two person on this charm. The two people will be married. The rate of success is fully dependent on the individuals. Do you want to withdraw it?]

"There's no guaranteed success? This is bullshit!" Chen looked disappointed but he clicked withdraw without hesitation. The value of this item is rather low since it did not have a 100% success rate. Thus, it was totally fine to give out as a present.

"Take this charm and write down your name and your wife's name." Chen handed over the charm to the boss. His wife was a nice lady and he really wanted to become a better husband. The charm would very likely work for them.

"I'm done writing." The boss did it as fast as possible.

"All is done. IWhen you go back, I want you to become a vegetarian and pray to God. She will definitely come back to you," Chen said.

"Becomea vegetarian and pray to God?" The boss hesitated.

"I always fall asleep when I pray and a no-meat diet is a pure torture for me. Can I….."

"Cut the crap! Just believe me and do it. Don't blame me if your wife is gone forever. Also, your followers should become vegetarians and pray to God as well. It is a show of good faith," Chen said, and gave him a slight smile.

Actually, there was no need to become a vegetarian and pray to God to use the Charm of Marriage. Chen did it on purpose to punish this group of gangsters that did no good to the society.

The boss nodded and said, "Sure! Sure! Sure! I will listen to the master! Before my wife comes back to me, I will make surethat all my followers are vegetarians and pray to God with me, every single day."

His followers were devastated. "Boss, please don't do this to us! We can probably hold on for a day or two at most. Heck, instead, we will become a group of monks if your wife does not to come back to you."

"Cut the crap! Just believe in Master Chen! Let's go! We should leave these two to have some alone time." The boss trusted Chen fully. He commanded his followers to leave the place while scolding them.

"You are finally safe."

Lan patted on her chest and said in a serious tone, "Thank you for saving me. You may leave your number with me. I can buy you a meal some day." She was as cool as she usually was, after she had calmed herself down -- that made her even more gorgeous and perfect.

"So gorgeous…" Chen was stunned for a short while, and he handed his phone number to her with a smile on his face.

"Don't try to sweet talk me. I do not like guys who sweet talk all the time." Lan grumbled playfully. She took a look at Chen and said, "I shall leave first. This weekend, it's a date then."

"You don't have to rush! I'm going the same way as well. Also, I'm from Green Vine University like you." Chen quickly followed her.

"What a coincidence! I can't believe we are from the same university."

"Well, I call this fate."

"You are really good at prediction. Where did you learn all these tricks?"

"It's self-taught."

"Does the charm work? They will come back and beat you up if it doesn't work."

"Don't worry. It's from the Moonlord. It will definitely work!"

"What do you mean by the Moonlord?"

Cough*

"I meant that the moon is really big and round today."

The two of them walked back to the university together. Lan's cool factor also included the fact that she was a woman of few words. However, this time she opened up herself and started to chat with Chen. It was joyful talking to her. Chen walked her back to her dorm and said goodbye to her.

His three roommates were gathered around the computer, looking at something. But when they saw Chen entering, they quickly flipped the screen shut.

"Third brother! You're back?" Eldest brother Zhou Zitao and second brother Zheng Fengyi were nervous when they saw him.

"What are you guys watching?" Chen asked curiously.

"Now won't be a good time to find out. So, it's better for you not to ask," Forth brother Li Ming spoke up.

"I'm really fine! Why would I be sad?" Chen asked.

"Let me watch! Curiosity kills the cat!"

Li hesitated for a while before turned the screen around. He said nervously, "Third brother, you must not break down…."

It was post from their university's forum. The title was, "Master Shi's luxurious birthday party for his girlfriend." It was live. There were a lot of pictures uploaded in the post. Pictures like intimate moments between Shi and Bing, blowing candles, making wishes, cutting the cake and others, were all over the forum. They seemed really happy in the picture.

"Third brother, please don't be upset…"

"Let's take from a different perspective. This b*tch is a waste of your time."

"Third brother, hang on! Please don't hurt yourself or commit suicide."

Three of his roommates were really tensed. They were afraid that Chen will break down mentally. Chen smiled calmly and asked, "How long ago was this? Have you refreshed the page?"

"What do you mean by that?" Zhou asked.

"Quick! Refresh it now!" Zhang said.

Li quickly clicked on the refresh button.

Three of them were stunned by what they saw the next second. There were more pictures being uploaded to the post. This time, all the pictures were pretty disgusting and hardcore. The whole forum was flooded with this news. Titles like: historical

[Master Shi puked "gold" on his girlfriend's face, it was a really "golden" moment!]

[Let's take a look at this in terms of biology. How did Shi even puke shit?]

[What does shit taste like? What's the texture? #Shi #Bing]

"Oh shit! The whole forum is full of their "shit"! How is Bing going to face the crowd tomorrow?"

"That b*tch deserved it! That's what she gets from toying with our third brother's feelings. Karma is a b*tch, b*tch!"

"Click refresh again! I want to see what's next!"

The three of his roommates had completely immersed themselves in this news. Only Chen knew that this was the doing of his "good deed". He quickly took a bath and leaped onto bed to see if there were any more red envelopes to be snatched. Being able have his revenge and saving Lan were all credited to the Red Envelopes group. There were different items inside the Red Envelope. He definitely wouldn't mind getting more of it. Sunddenly, his cellphone vibrated.

Ding!

[Zhu Bajie would like to be your friend.]

Chen was shocked. The first thing that came to into his mind was the face of a pig, "Zhu Bajie? Why did he add me as his friend? Maybe the system found out that I'm the supernumerary."

Today was the release date of Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms. Chen was sure the reason he got into the game was because there was a system loophole. He will be kicked out from the group if he was found out.

"What should I do now? Right! I can foresee my own future. Let me see if it's ok to add him as friend."

A few seconds later. Four words came to his mind, "Good things will happen". Chen was so relieved when he knew nothing bad will happen.

"I can add his as my friend without worrying then."

He received a personal message as soon as he accepted.

Zhu Bajie: Good day my friend. (Three shy emojis)

"Erm…."

Chen quickly thought of a pig's head with shy emotion. He was disgusted by it. He replied apprehensively, "Good day Master Zhu. I wonder, why are you looking for me?"

Zhu: You received three Charms of Marriage earlier, right?

Chen said: Yes.

Zhu: Can I have one please? I'm willing trade for it.

Chen: Why do you need the charm?

Zhu: I would like to do something with Chang'e Goddess. (More shy emojis)

Chen: I understand. (Sweaty emojis)

Everyone within the three realms knew what happened between Zhu Bajie and Chang'e. It was fine for him to exchange the charm with something else because he did not need the charm anyway. The question is, what should he exchange the charm for? Chen had zero knowledge about the items from deities.

He thought for a while and asked: Do you happen to have the Fur of Prosperity from the Monkey King himself? If you have it. I'm willing to exchange the charm for it.

Zhu: I don't have it with me. He gave out all his Red Envelopes. Now, there's a bald patch on his body. It's hard to get fur from him at this moment. (Three sweaty emojis)

Chen was kind of disappointed. He saw that Zhu was really desperate and he knew he was in luck. So, he asked him directly whether he possessed any human's items.

Zhu: I don't have any human's stuff but I can go back to Gao Village to check it out."

Chen was had no choice but to wait for him tomake a trip back to Gao Village. He could not believe that Gao Village did exist. He was in need of money, thus, he replied by saying, "Just get me some gold, jewelry or silver."

Zhu: Those are useless items. Don't you realize that I'm basically ripping you off in that case? Your charms are worth a lot more than that.

Chen: I don't think I'm losing out much. You take this as good will from me. Also, we can become good friends after this.

Zhu: Splendid! You are already my good friend now! Hold on, let me take a trip back to Gao Village!

Chen smirked as he thought, "All those gold, jewelry and silver might be useless to you but they will worth a lot to me." One man's junk, another man's treasure. The same goes for the charms. They're useless to me.

"Third brother! come over here! The forum has been flooded by another news!" Zhang screamed.

"What kind of news would be hotter than the Shi's incident?" Chen was curious, so, he jumped down from his bed and took a look.

[School beauty Lan, went out with a mysterious guy and went back to the dorm together,late at night!]

There were a lot of pictures under the big title. People who commented on this post were all crazy fans of Lan. They were jealous of the mysterious guy. Most of them were trying to identify the mystery guy.

"Man, people like these have too much time on their hands! They might as well use the time to jerk off!" Chen snapped, feeling somewhat guilty.

They could not identify him because the photo was taken at night. He would be in big trouble if others could see his face. "Third brother, the guy in the picture wore the same outfit as you. Please don't tell me that it was you in the picture!" Li was shocked and his eyes were wide open.

"What the hell! Asshole! Confess now! What's your relationship with our goddess?" Zhou and Zhang stood up and walked towards him with their fists ready. These two guys were Lan's die-hard fans. They will surely make Chen pay for this.

Chen knew that it was useless to explain it to them right now. So, he buffed up his gut and outrightly told them, "Fine! I admit that Lan is my girlfriend!"

The three of his roommates were rather shocked when they heard what Chen just said.

"Third brother. When did you learn how to brag so well?" Zhou rolled his eyes.

"I'm not bragging. It was me in the picture! I gathered up my courage to tell you the truth. How dare you choose not to believe me?!" Chen said.

"Third brother. Your bragging skill is just bad….." Li shook his head and continued to check out the post.

"Third brother! I have to advise you on this matter. You don't even have enough money to buy food. How dare you approach Lan the beauty. Lan's family is the richest family in Green Vine City. There are only a few rich guys in this city qualified to pursue her!" Zhang said.

"Well, I've fessed up. It's up to you guys if you don't believe me." Chen shrugged his shoulders. He praised himself for his wisdom secretly.

His cellphone vibrated all of a sudden.

[You have received a Red Envelope from Zhu Bajie.]

Translator footnote

Zhu Bajie- One of the three helpers of Sanzang and a major character of the novel "Journey to the West". Is an anthropomorphized pig.

"That was a quick one, Brother Zhu! Let me see!"

Chen smiled as he pressed the icon and snatched the Red Envelope.

Ding!

[Congratulation on getting Zhu Bajie's Red Envelope. You have received a small treasure box and it has been deposited inside your treasure chest. Do you want to withdraw it?]

"Brother Zhu is really generous! I can't believe he gave me a box of jewelry!" There were only dollar signs in his eyes. He quickly went back to his bed and used a blanket to cover himself.

[Withdraw!]

A small wooden box appeared after a flash of bright light. Chen couldn't wait to open the wooden box. There were ten little nuggets and some other jewelry inside the box. The jewelries were not considered top grade and the quantity of the nuggets weren't anything great. He really couldn't complain much because these items were from Gao Village. It was enough to make Chen hyped up because he was born in a poor farmer family.

"I'm going to be filthy rich! My life is going to transform! Hahaha!" Chen said happily.

"Third brother. What the hell are you doing inside the blanket? Are you watching porn again?" Zhang excitedly went up to Chen and said, "Don't you know that good porno clips are meant to be shared?!"

"No! I'm not watching porn!"

Chen crawled out from his blanket and asked, "Second brother, you are one of the rich guys born and raised in Green Vine City. Do you know anyone interested in buying gold?"

"Aren't you a third generation farmer? Where did you get the gold?" Zhang asked curiously.

"I'll need more time to explain it to you. Just tell me first!" Chen said ambiguously.

Zhang nodded and said, "Well, all the jewelry shops will always be interested when it comes to purchasing gold. The price is around three hundred Yuan for one gram of gold. Please don't get fooled by them!"

"Alright. I will check out some jewelry shops tomorrow. I will treat you guys to a good meal if everything goes smoothly tomorrow!" Chen said happily.

"What?! Are we hearing it right?"

His roommates were so shocked and stared at him for making such bold statement.

"The sun is going to rise from the west tomorrow. You have never treated us to any meals before!"

"That's right! You guys heard me! I want you guys to cancel all your appointments tomorrow. Second brother, I want you to reserve a table for us at the best restaurant in town, and you guys can eat all you want. I'm going to pay for the meal." Chen said proudly.

Chen had never felt so badass since entering university. There was only one word to describe his feelings right now -- excited.

The three of his roommates flashed wide grins and said, "Haha. If you say so. We are to give thanks to Chen the boss in advance!"

It was very rare for a university student to dine in a fancy restaurant.

Everyone went to sleep after the hype. The next morning, Chen got on a public bus headed to the center of the city . He browsed the Red Envelope group on this way to the city. Unfortunately, people were just chatting inside the group. There were no Red Envelopes to be snatched.

The second he got down from the bus, Chen saw a big sign that said "Da Feng Jewelry Shop" across the busy street. It was the biggest jewelry shop in Green Vine City. Their customers were all from the higher class of this society. Rich people loved this shop.

"Wow! This place is really top of the class. Even the guards are so tall and buff. I'm going for this shop!" Chen ran towards the shop happily. Unfortunately, he was stopped by the guards before he could enter the shop.

"Stop! You are not allowed to enter this shop!" The guard said in a deep voice.

"Why? Is it because of my worn-out outfit?" Chen frowned. He actually knew that better than anyone else.

Due to his financial situation in his family, he wore the same shirt for three years. The color of the shirt had already faded from excessive washing.

"You outfit is indeed really bad, but that's not the primary reason of why you are not allow to go in." The guard shook his head and said, "We are serving a VIP at the moment! No one is allowed to go in before that important person leaves the shop."

"What kind of VIP is that? I can't believe that the shop has to be closed for that one VIP. Isn't that too much?!" Chen said, shocked.

"You wouldn't believe me even if I told you. Just leave! You're going to be a pain in the ass! My boss is going to scold me if he sees you standing outside." The guard said grumpily.

"Fine! I will go to the other shop!" Chen shrugged. He did not want to reason with the guard.

"People like this will respect me and bow down before me like a dog when I become rich. "

All of a sudden, a sharp voice came from behind Chen.

"Asshole! Why are you here? Get lost! Do not bring your bad luck into my shop!" It was Shi and his overly attached girlfriend, Bing.

"This is your shop?" Chen was shocked. This was a small world for these two enemies to meet at the same place.

"Cut the bullshit!"

"Da Feng jewelry shop belongs to my hubby Shi's family! Security! Please kick this poor farmer out from this place! He's here to create a scene!" Bing yelled, pointing at Chen.

Chen became angry and he said in a tone full of disdain, "I will not come here even if a Rolls Royce was sent to pick me up because there are two shit eaters here in this place.

"Asshole! How dare you speak of that! Are you treating me like those vegetarian monks?" Shi yelled at Chen.

"No, you are not a vegetarian. All I know is you have eaten shit before," Chen said calmly.

"You….." Shi was so mad that he nearly vomited blood.

"I'm master Shi! I can kill this poor farmer's son with only one finger!" Shi yelled at Chen.

"Well, you have eaten shit before." Chen shrugged.

"My dad is Shi Dafeng. I have three hundred million Yuan in my bank account!"

"Still, you have eaten shit before."

"My cousin is the head of a group of gangsters. He has three hundred followers with him!" historical

"Again, you have eaten shit before."

Blarghh!

Shi moved three steps backward with his hand on his chest. He tried to suppress the urge to vomit blood. Shi was so angry to the point that he felt like he was going to collapse on the ground.

"Say the word "shit"! Say it again!" Shi yelled at Chen

Chen nodded his head and proceeded to say calmly, "You had puked shit before. You even sprayed it all over Bing's face. Pictures were taken of the moment you puked shit. Also, the news flooded out on the university forum."

The relaxing way of how Chen conveyed his message was pretty destructive. It was a critical hit for Bing and Shi.

"Shut up!"

Shi and Bing were so mad that they started to scream. Their reactions were priceless. It was better for them to bang their heads on a piece of tofu and just die on the spot.

"Double kill!" Chen laughed blissfully because of his victory.

"Security! Why are you still standing there? Kick this piece of shit out of this place!" Shi was basically roaring. His hands were shaking and it looked like he was having a seizure.

"Yes, sir!" The security gulped. He had never seen Master Shi ever bullied by others since he started working here. Suddenly, another roar came from the shop.

"What is happening here?! Who dares to make a mess in front of my shop? I will make sure the person's life is going to be miserable if that person makes our VIP unhappy!"

A middle-aged, plump man, dressed in a suit and leather shoes rushed out from the shop. His looked very arrogant. He looked just like Shi. Obviously, he was Shi's father. The boss of this jewelry shop, Shi Dafeng!

"Dad!"

"Uncle!"

Shi and Bing quickly ran behind him and started to complain about what Chen had just done to them.

"The two of you better shut up! You call yourself the son of Shi Dafreng but you can't even take care of one poor farmer! What a shame! Shi Dafeng was not in his best mood. It's probably because there's no deal with the VIP.

Right at this moment, the VIP walked out of the shop and looked at Chen in surprise.

"Eh, why are you here?"

It was a lady of rare beauty. She had perfect facial features. Her hair was kohl-black and it flowed down her shoulders. The rhapsody-blue dress that she wore made her stand out from all the ladies around her. Her statuesque figure was truly pleasing to the eyes, radiating with natural sexiness. And perhaps, even here, in the midst of the jewelry and the other well-dressed individuals, her beauty was something out of this world, spoken of but never seen, like a jewel hidden in a secret vault. She was the epitome of a goddess. All the men around her were stunned. They just couldn't look away from her. Even Bing the b*tch, was stunned by her beauty as well. She wanted to hide in a corner because she was jealous, feeling so small in front of her. She was nothing compared to her. The award of best reaction went to Shi. His face turned red, his two eyes wide opened. That famished wolf like facial reaction made him looked like he couldn't wait to lick the goddess' feet. Bing was so jealous. She used all the strength to pinch Shi. However, Shi didn't even flinch. It was like he was just turned into stone by Medusa herself.

"Ms Lan, allow me to introduce my son, Shi Mingwei to you. He is your university mate. Quite a good-looking young man, right? Also, he passed his exams with flying colors every semester." Shi Dafeng was fuming with rage a second ago, and now, he's smiling, as he introduced his son to Ms. Lan. If Ms. Lan was interested in his son, this was going to be the best thing that ever happened to Shi's family. Even the souls of Shi's ancestors will be celebrating for him.

"Hello, Ms. Lan!" Shi was smiling like an idiot. He kept nodding his head like a dog, lifting up its paw and trying to hold the goddess' delicate hand. However, Lan did not even take a look at Shi Mingwei. She smiled and walked towards Chen and said, "I never thought that I would see you here, Master Chen."

"Hi, Lan. I would say this is fate." Chen scratched the tip of his nose. His eyes were glued to her body. Her curvy figure and her angelic face were to die for. The combination of her perky bosoms, decanter shaped waist, perfectly round bottom, and the perfect pair of legs, on flawless, lustrous skin were extremely all seductive. You were right! She was the most gorgeous lady among the four other beauties. Also, the goddess in the hearts of countless men. Her name was Lan Mengchen!

"What are you looking at?" Lan frowned slightly.

"Needless to ask. I'm looking at the world's most beautiful lady." Chen smiled. historical

"You little smart ass. Stop sweet-talking me!" Lan stared at Chen. That adorable face of her when she got angry made her even more lovely and radiant.

Chen's heart was racing and said, "I'm telling the truth! I can swear to God if you don't believe in me!"

"No one asked you to swear. If you are going to swear to God, I'm going to swear to every God that I know of in existence!" Lan smiled. Her smile was enough to paralyze everyone around her.

The unbelievable scene was like a nuclear bomb just exploded. The "blast wave" just caused a total destruction on everyone's brain. Shi Dafeng and Shi Mingwei dropped their jaws on the ground. They could stand being ignored by Lan, because she was from the most prestigious family in Green Vine City. Her family was totally out of their reach and none of them dared to displease her. However, Lan was ignoring them to speak to Chen. This was the worst insult to them. How was it even possible for a family with three hundred million Yuan in a bank account to lose to a poor farmer's boy. This did not make any sense! Bing was so shocked.

Last night, b*tchy Bing was telling her b*tchy friends about how she dumped Chen and found a new filthy rich boyfriend. Now, she felt her heart dropping, as she saw Chen and the goddess talking happily. She realized she was not the one who dumped Chen, it was the opposite. This new revelation made her face burning hot. It was like she was just slapped by someone continuously for a very long time. Chen felt so satisfied, watching the whole scene unfolding before his eyes.

"Right! Why are you here today?" Lan asked curiously.

Chen was not going to hide anything and told her honestly, "I'm here to sell gold."

"If that's the case. You have come to the right place. They give a really good price on whoever wish to sell their gold. Boss Shi, can you check out on my friend's gold?" Lan said.

She had no idea about the conflict between Shi and Chen. Her words were direct and oblivious.

Naturally, Shi Dafeng put on a smile on his face and nodded, "That's very nice of you, Ms. Lan. I'm more than willing to help you out."

Chen was kind of unwilling to sell the gold to Shi Dafeng but he did not want to bring shame to Lan. He took out an ingot from his bag and handed it Shi Dafeng.

"This is two taels of gold which is a hundred grams. The price of gold is three hundred Yuan per gram. This will be a total of thirty thousand Yuan. If you are fine with the price, I can hand you the cash right now." Shi Dafeng acted casually, hoping to leave a good impression on Ms. Lan.

When Chen heard about the selling price, he was so happy that he almost jumped up the roof. He had a total of ten ingots. It meant he can earn three hundred thousand from selling all ten ingots.

"Hold on right there!"

Shi tried to stop the transaction, "Dad! We can't buy these ingots! This guy was so poor that he couldn't afford to even buy his own meals. These ingots must be some kind of stolen goods!"

When Shi Dafeng heard his son just said, he quickly said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid I can't purchase the ingots from you. Our customers are all from the upper echelon of society. We care a lot about our reputation. I can't risk our reputation by buying stolen goods from you. If these are indeed stolen goods, our business will be in ruins."

Chen smiled and said, "There are a lot of jewelry shops in Green Vine City. I can totally sell to other shops."

"Hmph! Just go! One call from my dad, no jewelry shops in Green Vine City will buy your ingots!" Shi was laughing arrogantly.

Bing the b*tch tried to make the situation worse by saying, "You are the best, hubby Shi. You must make the call! Let him starve!"

"You… All of you… !" Chen was flustered. He was just a normal student. There was no way for him to fight this rich and powerful family.

"Chen, I'm so sorry. I have no idea there's a conflict between you and Shi." She had gotten a gist of the situation. It came to her realization that she made the wrong move.

"That's alright. You were just being nice." Chen smiled, quickly healed by her concern.

Lan's eyebrows moved slightly and said it in a domineering voice, "You can sell your ingots to me. I will buy it all!"

When Shi Dafeng, Shi Mingwei and Yao Bingbing heard what she said, they were all floored. They dared not to do anything that might offend Ms. Lan. If they made her angry, her family might just buy off their business with a call.

"Aren't you afraid of these ingots being stolen goods?" Chen asked.

"Not at all!"

Lan shook her head and her dreamy eyes were filled with trust, "Poor people are not bad people, I believe that your ingots are not stolen goods. You acquired them legally."

Chen was so touched. His impression towards her just gone up to a whole new level. Lan swung her hand at the Rolls Royce Phantom that parked not far away from this shop. An old man with white hair walked towards her.

"Miss Lan." The old man bowed before her. He gave out a peaceful and polite aura. He was slim, and yet, he was as steady as a mountain. He must be some kind of martial arts master. Chen zeroed in on him.

Chen was already made clairvoyant by the Eight Diagrams. He knew that this old man's "Qi" was out of ordinary. He was already eighty years old. Chen was pretty sure that he had fifty years more to live. In other words, he could live up to one hundred and thirty years old. That was just plain crazy. What shocked Chen even more was the fact that this old man was serving Lan's family. It was pretty scary that there was no bottom to how powerful is Lan's family. It was no wonder that they were the biggest and most powerful family in Green Vine City.

"Uncle Qin, I would like to buy some ingots. Can you please bring me some cash?" Lan said, not a trace in her voice that she was speaking to a servant. It did not sound like she was ordering a servant to do something. It sounded more like she treating him like an elder.

"Ingots? I thought Ms. Lan never liked this kind of stuff? Do you mind me taking a look at your ingot?" Uncle Qin asked.

"Please. Have a look." Chen quickly complied, having already a deep sense of respect from the way the man carried himself. Chen quickly handed over the ingot to Uncle Qin.

"Alright."

Uncle Qin took a quick look at the ingot. He was shocked and asked, "Young man! Are you sure you want to sell this ingot?"

Chen said confusingly, "Yes. I want to sell it. Is there anything wrong with it?"

Even Lan opened up her beautiful and dreamy eyes wide. She had never seen Uncle Qin unnerved in any sort of manner.

"This is an ingot from Tang Dynasty. They're really rare. In addition to that, it was really well preserved. This made value even higher!" Uncle Qin was holding the ingot up and took a better look at it. It seemed like he couldn't let go of it.

"Tang Dynasty!?

Chen was shocked and delighted at the same time. The ingots that were given by Brother Zhu were not some ordinary ingots but a box of well-preserved antiques from the Tang Dynasty. Was this how it felt like to suddenly get rich?

"Uncle Qin, can you please give me an estimated price for this ingot? I really want to sell it." Chen was not interested in antiques. The only that he was interested in right now was to shower himself with money.

"If you truly want to part with it, I would say that the price for this ingot is six hundred thousand Yuan. That would be a really fair price for it." Uncle Qin said.

What? Six hundred thousand? Chen's brain short-circuited when he heard the value of his ingots. Thirty thousand shooting up to six hundred thousand was too much for him to handle. The value had increased by twenty times. He possessed ten of the same ingots. In other words, he was going to receive six million from selling his ingots! He couldn't even figure out what was going on anymore. Other than the head from his village, no other family there had six digits of cash. Chen still owned three golden hairpins and three jade hairpins. This was going to be a huge fortune.

Chen was completely petrified. There was only one sentence in his mind right now. He saw five words floating in the sky; Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! historical

"Young man, if you do not have any further inquiries, may I have the number of your bank account? I'm going to transfer the money to you right now." Uncle Chen said in a deep voice.

"Of course, I have no further inquiries!"

"Chen shook his head and tried to calm himself down temporary and said, "I have nine more ingots. Is it possible for Uncle Qin to purchase them altogether?"

"What?! You still have nine of the same ingots?" Uncle Qin was completely shocked by what Chen just said. He thought that the one ingot that he was holding was rare enough as it is. The fact that Chen had ten of it was totally out of his expectations.

"Boy! These antiques are super rare! It's hard to even find one nowadays. If you are willing to sell all ten of it, I'm willing to buy all that you have." It seemed like Uncle Chen had a special interest towards these ingots. He even forgot Ms. Lan was the one who wanted to purchase Chen's ingots.

"Great! Deal!" Chen took out the rest of the ingots and told him his bank account number.

Without hesitation, Uncle Qin transferred the money to Chen.

"Six million! Six freaking million... I'm going to be filthy rich!" Chen was in the state of euphoria. Every cell in his body was cheering for him. The moment the figure in his bank account changes, his life was going to be transformed drastically.

"Chen, please calm down! You won't live to spend the money if you die of happiness." Lan smiled.

Lan's mood became better after seeing Chen jumping up and down happily. Of course, this meant that someone else would be greatly upset. Shi Dafeng wanted to slap his little shit, Shi Mingwai to death. Shi Dafeng could have spent three hundred thousand Yuan to buy out Chen's ingots if his asshole son did stop him from buying the ingots from Chen. Now that he knew the true value of those ingots, he realized that he had lost five million and seven hundred thousand Yuan. Shi Dafeng felt like his balls had been smashed into pieces. Bing had no balls but she felt like she was going to vomit blood. She broke up with Chen yesterday and now he had six million in his bank account. Chen could have given her half of his money if she was still his girlfriend. But now, she couldn't even lay her finger on his money. With this thought, Bing was completely devastated.

After that, Chen and Lan went back to school. Conveniently, Chen had the chance to ride with Lan in her Rolls Royce.

"How come you visited the jewelry shop today? You do not look like that kind of girl who is into jewelry." Chen asked curiously.

"It's my grandma's birthday next week. I wanted to buy her a present but I did not see anything that would suit her." Chen saw a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

"What kind of jewelry does your grandma like? It's hard to believe you can't find one that your grandma would like in that jewelry shop." Chen asked.

"My grandma likes simple, elegant antiques. However, the design of jewelries nowadays is just too much. That was why I couldn't seem to find anyone that she would like." Lan sighed.

"Haha! You are in luck!"

Chen smiled and he took everything out from his bag pack and said, "Check it out. Do you see the one that you like here?"

There were three golden hairpins and three jade hairpins from Gao Village. All these were real and original antiques! The design was simple and elegant.

"Master Chen, are you some kind of jewelry seller? Why do you have all these jewelry with you….?" Lan was confused.

"Oh my god! Antiques from Tang Dynasty!"

Uncle Qin was driving and he had spared a glance in the rear-view mirror. His hands almost wracked in spasm, and he barely avoided driving into a bush.

"Uncle Qin!?"

Lan was shocked. Her cute gorgeous face was in a look of total confusion

Uncle Qin was well-known for being a sturdy as a rock, and for having a heart that could rival the calmest rivers. He had a nickname; the Buddha of stone. Having met Chen, he had already lost his composure several times over. It was unbelievable.

"Everything that Mr. Chen possesses is antiques from Tang Dynasty. I can totally recognize them from the designs and patterns!" Uncle Qin said excitedly.

"All these are antiques?!" Lan's cherry-like tiny mouth's shape just changed. She was in awe.

"They are not replicas. You can take one without worrying."

"Alright. I will choose this white jade hairpin. There are ancient Chinese characters written on the hairpin and they carry good meaning. Also, I like the design as well."

"Uncle Qin, can you estimate the price of this hairpin?" Lan was smiling satisfyingly.

Chen waved his hand and said, "You can save the trouble. I'm going to give this white jade hairpin to you."

"No way. This hairpin is too precious!" Lan said.

"Just take it!"

Chen put the hairpin on Lan's palm and handed over the golden hairpin and black jade hairpin to Uncle Qin and said, "I'm going to give these two hairpins to both of you, Uncle Qin and Lan. If you guys were not there to help me, I was going to suffer a big loss."

"Young man! Don't be hasty. Do you have any idea of the value of three items you are giving out? They worth more than ten million!" Uncle Qin said in a deep voice.

Report chapter Comments

"When I was a kid, my parents always told me to do good to those who do good to you. This is not about the money. I simply would like to express my good will to you. Even if these three items are worth more than hundreds of millions, I am still going to give them out without any hesitation because the two of you really helped me out when I was in trouble!"

Chen smiled. Two rows of crystal teeth could be seen.

"Alright, in that case… Thank you, so so much!" Lan whispered softly. Deep inside her heart, she was greatly touched by Chen sincere intentions. There was no way that she could reject his good will. Chen was relieved after Lan accepted his gift. He kept the rest of the hairpins carefully inside his bag. By then, he knew that they were worth a fortune.

"Oh, right! Now that you have so much money inside your bank account. How are you going to spend it?" Lan asked curiously.

"I'm planning to buy a house in Green Vine City. Then, I'm going to invite my parents to stay with me in the new house. I want to make sure they can live a comfortable life. They have already poured out their blood and sweat for me. Oh, if you are free, could you please help me check out some houses here in Green Vine City? I don't mind spending more money on a house with good environment. Letting my parents live comfortably is my primary concern."

"Alright!" Lan nodded her head lightly. She was impressed.

What a kind and pure young man! The first thing that came to his mind after receiving six million were his parents! It was a rarity nowadays, for teenagers to put their parents first, before themselves!

"Good lad! I like that attitude! Leave me your contact number afterward. Just give me a call if you face any trouble in the future." Uncle Qin said, his voice serious and earnest. It was pretty obvious that he liked Chen a lot.

"Alright! If Uncle Qin ever needs my help in the future, just give me a call as well!" Chen said happily.

"Well said!" Uncle Qin laughed.

Looking at the conversation between a young man and an old man, Lan was really amazed. Before serving in Lan's family, Uncle Qin had been very famous throughout the Jianghu. His name is Qin Yuanshan the Stone Buddha. Although he had retired from Jianghu, his reputation and influence was still as powerful as they were during his prime. Everyone from the upper society in Green Vine City respected him a lot. Even in the Dragon City, his name was widely known as well.

For a long time, a lot of teenagers had wanted to be recognized by Uncle Qin. Unfortunately, none of them were qualified to be acknowledged by him. Chen was the only one who ever acquired recognition from Uncle Qin. However, Chen still did not know the value of Uncle Qin's promise. Perhaps, if Chen was to step into the Jianghu, he would then know the value of that promise.

At five in the evening, Chen and his roommates got on a taxi and went to the best restaurant in Green Vine City; Fragrant Lake restaurant.

"Fragrant Lake restaurant! I have not been there for a long time!" Zhang stood in front of the door and sighed.

"No way! Second brother, you are from a wealthy family. How is it possible that you don't come here often?" Li asked shockingly.

"Bullshit! You need to spend at least twenty to thirty thousand yuan every time you dine here. Other than the richest folks, no one else can afford coming here often." Zhang said seriously.

"Wow! Our very own Chen has made us proud!"

Zhou laughed and urged Chen, "Boss Chen, hurry up! You've been playing with your cellphone all the way from our dorm to the restaurant. You should stop now!"

"You guys can order the dishes first, I will just snatch one more Red Envelope before I come in." Chen lowered his head and continued to tap on his cellphone like there was no tomorrow. When Chen was walking out of school, someone from the group had given out a huge number of Red Envelopes. The whole group was flooded with Red Envelopes. However, there were hundreds of thousands of members in the group. Chen tried his best to snatch at least one Red envelope but it seemed that the God of luck was not with him today.

The "Red Envelopes Flood" was receding. It was inevitable that the Red Envelopes would be all gone in a while. Chen decided to put all of his strength, tapping on his cellphone's screen in a frenzy, hoping to get at least one Red Envelope.

"Where the hell did this bastard come from? Do you not know that good dogs never block the way? Get the f*ck out!" All of a sudden, an arrogant young man walked towards Chen.

This guy had a potty mouth. Chen was busy tapping away for the Red Envelopes. He had no time to respond to him. So, he merely shuffled to the side a little. That arrogant young man was not satisfied with his move and scolded him, "What the f*ck is this? You're dressed in rags, you beggar! How dare you mar the front Fragrant Lake Restaurant? Get the f*ck out of my sight!"

"Wenfeng! Stop messing around!"

An amicable looking old man walked towards them. There was a group of well-dressed middle-aged men and women following behind him closely.

"Grandpa, I'm afraid that this beggar was going to get in your way." The arrogant young man turned to the elder, his tone taking a 180-degree turn.

"How many times have I told you not to judge a book by its cover!?" Elder Wen said, in his deep, regal voice.

"Yes, grandpa. I understand." Wenfeng nodded his head. He did not dare say another word in front of his grandpa.

"Young man, I should have taught my grandson the way he treats other. I hope you that will not hold any grudge." Elder Wen walked towards Chen to express his apology.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You got a Red Envelope from Shennong and received three bottles of Potion of Hundred Herbs. It has been deposited inside your treasure chest.]

"Yay! Finally got one!"

Chen burst out in joy. It startled Wen, the old man.

"He's not just a beggar but also a crazy guy." Wenfeng said softly. His grandpa gave him a stare. He quickly swallowed the rest of his sentence.

Chen calmed himself down. He ignored Wenfeng, but there was something about Wen that he liked. He was about to reply respectfully, but suddenly noticed that there was a black aura circling over the top of his head. It was the sign of great danger.

"Old man, forgive me if my words offend you. I believe I need to inform you of this."

Chen did his usual prediction and told him, "Something really bad will happen to you today. You must travel thirteen miles from here to avoid this life-threatening danger!"

"F*ck your mom's cunt! Today is my grandpa's birthday! How dare you curse him! Do you have a death wish?!" Wenfeng shouted at Chen angrily.

All the middle-aged men and women were glaring at him in turn.

"I have said what I wanted to say. It's up to you now whether you want to believe my words. Also, you can scold me but you have no right to bring my parents in. That's my only warning, and if you choose to continue insulting them, I will make sure that your life is miserable!" Chen turned around and walked away after he finished talking. historical

He wasn't a bad guy, but he wasn't inclined to helping every Dick and Harry on the street. Only a dumb guy would wear himself out trying to help those who would not even recognize help if you waved it under their noses.

"Asshole! How much more you want to say?! Why, I'll..." Wenfeng rolled up his sleeves, and was approaching Chen with his fists raised.

Elder Wen held him back and let Chen leave. Maybe others thought Chen was just trying to say something to scare them but Elder Wen was actually slightly convinced. This was because, there was indeed a villa that he would occasionally be used to meditate, thirteen miles outside of this city. No random stranger would mention that distance for no reason. This was getting interesting.

"Grandpa, let's go in. That guy was a crazy nutjob. Just ignore him." Wenfeng said.

"Hmm... Okay."

Elder Wen was not all superstitious. His skepticism quickly overruled his initial conviction. Everything was fine. It was probably just a coincidence from a spiteful youth. What sort of dangers could possibly befall upon him?

Chen and his roommates reserved the Emperor Box in the restaurant. It was something like a private, high and uppity room, with full sliding doors, and where a table would be prepared inside, leaving the diners in full privacy. Chen truly intended to treat his friends to the best of his efforts. He ordered the best and the most expensive food on the menu. This meal would probably cost over fifty thousand Yuan. All four of them were enjoying the food to the fullest. Usually, Chen would simply tag along, eating whatever they ate, without preferences of his own. This was the first time he was treating all three of them to a good meal. Even, the slightly wealthier Zhang could not have afforded this meal. Naturally, Chen became the center of attention on the table. He was feeling truly smug.

Just when everyone finished their meal and were getting ready to leave the restaurant, the doors of the Emperor Box were slid open. A man walked towards Chen, his face filled with dread and anxiety.

"Little brother, my father just fell into coma. He's not responding to anything. I would like you to come with me." the guy said, anxiously.

"What the hell is happening?" Zhou and Li were confused.

"Wen… Wen Tianyuan!" Zhang opened up his eyes wide in shock as he studied the face of the man that stood in front of him.

This man was one of the middle-aged folk who had closely followed behind Elder Wen. If Zhang reacted in such a manner, this man had to be somebody.

However, Chen only rejected him crossly. "I'm not going! I tried to warn you guys just now but none of you believed me. Why bother coming to me now?"

Zhang's eyeballs almost fell out when he saw what just happened in front of him. Throughout the entirety of Green Vine City, there were no more than five people alive, who would dare to reject Wen Tianyuan's request. Chen was acting like an arrogant son of a b*tch.

However, Wen only apologized profusely. "It was truly our fault! Initially, I felt too ashamed to ask this favor of you. We treated you badly. But it's late at night, and it will take a while before the ambulance gets here. If you don't help me, I fear that my father is going to… Please, I'm begging you right now, as Wen Tianyuan. "

Beg. This word did not exist in Wen Tianyuan's dictionary. Right now, at this moment, he had bowed down his head and was begging Chen. Wen Tianyuan's overwhelming concern had forced him into such a posture. You don't see a powerful man bowing down like that everyday. Chen's heart was not made of steel. "Fine! It is only right that I save a person's life if it's within my capabilities. I'll come with you."

"Thank you, little brother,! Thank you so much…." Wen Tianyuan could not stop saying thank you. After that, he led Chen out of the Emperor Box.

"Second brother, why are you stunned?" Li smacked the head of the petrified Zhang and asked.

"Wen… Wen Tianyuan just asked for a favor from our third brother. The CEO of Wen Organization came and begged our third brother!!!" Zhang was still in shock. His facial features were completely twisted.

"Wen organization? You mean the second biggest family in Green Vine City; the Wen Family?" Zhou was in shocked as well.

"..." Li was speechless. He started to have doubts about his life.

Inside the Heaven's Box, everyone from Wen Family was gathered around the sofa. Elder Wen was lying down on the sofa. There was no movement from him at all. His face was pale, and his lips were purple. He was in critical condition. There was a saying, having a wise old man at home would be like owning a world-class, precious jewel. Elder Wen had contributed a lot to his family. If something bad happened to him, Wen Family would definitely collapse. Everyone was really worried about him. The atmosphere inside the box was tense and gloomy.

"Clear the way! Clear the way! Mr Chen is coming!"

Wen Tianyuan rushed into the box with big steps. It was as if everyone saw hope in Chen. The atmosphere lightened notably. "All of you, please stand back, the old man needs some fresh air." Chen waved his hands about.

The middle-aged men and women were very cooperative. They quickly backed away. However, Wenfeng curled his lips in disdain and said, "What the f*ck is he trying to prove? He's just a f*cking conman. How dare he give us orders?"

"You better get hell out from my sight! If anything happens to Elder Wen, I will hold you responsible." Chen stared at him and said seriously. Wen had kept picking on Chen in front of Fragrant Lake Restaurant and he had truly gotten on his nerves. Chen couldn't take it anymore. So, he repeated Wenfeng's own words back to his face.

"What?!"

Wenfeng was furious and said, "F*cker! How dare you say that to me? I'm going make your life f*cking miserable!"

"Wenfeng! Get out!" Wen Tianyuan scolded him.

Wenfeng was terrified, but he was unwilling to lose face. "Uncle! I'm the one who is going to be the future inheritor of Wen Family! How dare you embarrass me just because of this motherf*cker?"

"Mr Wen, I'm here to help, not to be scolded. I won't take much of this. I'm going to leave this place and wish you luck." Chen said it in an icy cold voice.

"You son of the b*tch! Looks like you are getting more and more cocky! If I don't kill you today. I'm going to change my family name…" Wenfeng stared at Chen fiercely and shouted.

Slap!*

Before he could finish his sentence, Tianyuan's huge palm landed on his face. It echoed throughout the room. Wenfeng fell on the ground, a red palm print starting to appear on his fair and tender face.

"Uncle… You slapped me because of this asshole? Y'all just wait until my dad comes back! I'm going to make sure all of you suffer!"

Wenfeng covered his cheek and rushed to his feet. His eyes were burning with rage. He quickly ran to door and made his exit.

"Bastard!" Wen Tianyuan shot at his nephew's retreating back and turned to Chen, "Mr Chen, can you please save my father now? It can't be delayed any longer."

"Sure. Can you please back away as well?" Chen said calmly. Wen Tianyuan dared not say another word. He quickly backed away. With his back facing everyone else, he took out his cellphone and accessed his treasure chest. There was one Monkey Fur, a Charm of Marriage, and the three bottles of the Potion of Hundred Herbs that he had just received earlier."

[Potion of Hundred Herbs. Produced by Shennong. The effect of this medicine is normal. Do you wish to withdraw it?]

Yes! Chen clicked on the screen, and a small, white ancient bottle appeared in his hand. It was made of china (the porcelain). Shennong was one of the Three Kings. He was a deity! If this medicine was 'normal' for deities, it should be extremely effective on humans!

Chen figured that there was no need to even check the man's condition. He opened the bottle and poured the green fluid into his mouth. His faith in the power of the medicine wasn't misplaced. Once the green fluid entered his mouth, the old man's face immediately changed. The healthy flush of pink started to flow into his pale face and purple lips. At the same time, Chen saw the black aura that was circling on top of him starting to fade away. There was a saying; if you escape death, good things are going to happen to you. This old man would probably live for another ten good years now. historical

cough*

Elder Wen finally woke up, coughing lightly. Everyone started to cheer happily. They were also viewing Chen in a different light. They were impressed and intrigued at the same time.

"Young man…Thank you so much, for saving this old man's life. I will definitely repay you with all my heart!" Wen said it in, his voice rich and deep.

It was a drastic change, from a deep coma to total awareness. He knew clearly, that he had just escaped from the gates of hell and it was all because Chen was willing to save him.

"This is a Super VVIP card from the Wen Organization. With this card, you can acquire anything from any companies that are under the Wen Organization for free. Also, you will be treated like a CEO with this card in your hand!"

Elder Wen took out a exquisite looking card, and handed it to Chen with both hands. Every Wen Family members' eyes were filled with a twinge of envy when they saw Chen receiving the card. Being treated like a CEO meant that Chen was now on the same level as Wen Tianyuan. Only one other card had ever been given out in the entirety of Green Vine City. It was an extremely rare item.

"I'll take my leave if there's nothing else."

Chen had no idea what Wen Organization meant for him now. He put away his VVIP card and left the scene in hurry. Right after he left the box, he took out his cellphone and checked on it, because it had started vibrating furiously the moment Elder Wen had regained his conscious. Compared to the VVIP card, Chen actually cared more about the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms.

Ding!

[You have saved an old man's life. You have gained one point for your Triple Realms Merit. You still need ninety points of Triple Realms Merit to go to your next level.]

"What is Triple Realms Merit? What is the next level? What the hell are all these?"

Chen went blank for a short while. He thought he had received another Red Envelope, but it was just a message from the system.

[Triple Realms Merit; everything in this world happens for a reason! Do good deeds to accumulate more merits. It can be used to increase your level!]

"Increase level? Are these experience points? After I accumulate certain number of merit, I will be able to increase my level?"

Chen continued to read.

Ding! [Below are what you can become as you level up]

Mundane Mortal, Benevolent Mortal, Super Philanthropist, Philanthropist of the Third, Philanthropist of the Tenth, Divine Mortal, Deity of Earth, Deity of Heaven, True Deity, Grand Celestial, Golden Grand Celestial, Grand Celestial of Obsidian, The High God, The Golden High God, The High God of Obsidian, Primal Archbishop, Primal Golden Celestial, Primal of All Deities.

"What the hell! I can become a God just by accumulating Triple Realm Merit points!"

Chen was so shocked that his eye balls almost fell to the ground.

What would it mean to become a God? Would I be able to travel between heaven and earth anytime I want? Would I be immortal? Chen was completely floored by the idea. Chen put away his phone, paid the bill and called his three roommates to go back to the university together. Inside the cab, Chen simply explained what he did to Elder Wen back at the restaurant. He skipped the part on how he had his prediction on Elder Wen. Also, he told them that the Potion of Hundred Herbs was a traditional medicine from his village. Three of his roommate were in a mix of confusion and jealousy upon hearing it. All three of them wanted to hug Chen's leg.

Elder Wen, was the backbone of Wen Family. The king of the Wen organization. It was everyone's dream to have a good relationship with him.

"That car behind us has been following us for quite some time. A friend of yours?" All of a sudden, the cab driver asked.

"No, we don't know that car. Probably heading the same direction as us." Zhang, Li, and Zhou took a glance and nonchalantly turned back.

However, Chen studied it with his divine prediction.

"Shit! Bad luck! I have to travel three miles west to cast away the bad luck." Chen was startled.

"Sir, can you stop at the intersection up ahead? I'm getting down there." Chen said in a deep voice.

"What happened, third brother?" Zhou was really concerned.

"Nothing happened, You guys carry on. I have something to deal with." Chen told them, keeping his tone light. He quickly rushed out from the cab right after the cab stopped.

He hailed another cab right away, to travel to the west side of the city. The car was still following the cab that Chen had transitioned into. It was pretty obvious that Chen was their target. However, Chen was no longer anxious. His prediction told him that everything was going to be fine.

There were a lot of pubs, disco, and entertainment centers at the west side of the city. It was a truly hot spot. The best way to describe the place was, it's total chaos. The people who came to this part of the city were gangsters, mafia, and small-time criminals. Also, there were a lot of gang-related conflicts happening there every day. Fighting was constantly going on at this side of the city, and gang wars were commonplace.

Chen was well aware of all this. He was truly puzzled. "How the hell is everything going to be fine for me, at this shithole?"

Right at that moment, an irritating voice came from behind.

"Asshole! Stop right there!"

A young man with a red palm print on his face ran to Chen. This young man was none other than Wenfeng. Beside him, stood a man who could have rivaled Schwarzenegger himself in terms of muscles. It was his personal bodyguard.

"It's you!" Chen stared at him and he understood what was happening instantly.

"My parents had never laid their hands on me ever since I was a kid, until now! Wen Tianyuan laid his hand on me, because of you, you little piece of shit!"

Wenfeng stared at Chen like a lunatic and said, "I can't do anything to Wen Tianyuan before my parents come back! But, I can definitely crush you, you little f*cker, like a piece of cake!"

Chen smiled knowingly and said, "I advise you to turn around and go back to where you came from. If not, you will be spilling blood soon."

"F*ck your mother right in the asshole!"

Wenfeng was furious and he ordered his bodyguard, "Crush this f*cker right now! I want him to suffer to a point where death would be an escape!"

"Sir, just leave this to me! I can beat up a dozen of malnourished kids like him!" The bodyguard rubbed his fists together. Then, he walked towards Chen, ready to beat him up.

The bodyguard was over six feet tall. His arms were as big as Chen's thighs. The old Chen would have fled the scene when he was faced with this kind of problem. But, he was different now.

Chen only called out to Wenfeng, ignoring the giant. "Wenfeng! I did warn you not to bring in my parents when you scold me! I will make sure that you suffer today!"

"Asshole! Speaking arrogantly will be your last act before your death! I'm going to destroy you with only a punch! You have no right to make others slapped my master1" The bodyguard said condescendingly. He did not even consider Chen as his opponent. He was just another sandbag.

When the bodyguard was getting closer and closer to Chen. Deep inside his heart, he can still feel fear and anxiety. Although he knew everything was going to be fine, his body was too small and weak. He had to rely fully on the external force. If something was off course, he will definitely become a disabled person with no ability to take care of himself. The fact that he had to entrust his safety to external force makes him really unsatisfied. There were no sense of security and solid feeling.

"I want to become stronger! I want to use my own strength to solve my own problem."

Chen decided secretly after this matter got solved, he will ask Zhu brother to lend the power from Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms to improve his strength!"

He could deliver fear to others when he possessed his own strength.

"Die asshole!" The bodyguard lifted up his punch with two steps forward and it was going to land on Chen's face. historical

"Oi! Oi!"

Right at this second, a middle-aged man from a short distance walked towards them with a beer bottle on his left hand and his right hand tapped on Wenfeng's shoulder.

Report chapter Comments

"Which ignorant f*cker would dare tap my shoulder like that? Can't you see I'm busy here?!"

Wenfeng turned his head around, opening his mouth to drawl arrogantly.

POM!*

The beer bottle in the man's hand collided with Wenfeng's head.

"Argh! Ouch!"

The beer bottle shattered. Blood started to gush out from Wenfeng's head. He cried in agony. Stars were circling on the top of his head. The open wound and alcohol took a toll. He basically convulsed from the extreme pain.

"Master!"

The bodyguard quickly turned from Chen and rushed over to Wenfeng to protect him.

"Who are you? Why did you smash me with a beer bottle…?" Wenfeng was really confused.

He did not even know this red-haired man. This guy attacked him without any reason. What a shitty day!

"Who am I?"

The guy with red hair said arrogantly, "The streets around this area belong to me, Fire "Grim-Reaper', the boss. How dare you attack my benefactor in my territory. You don't even know who am I! It seems like you have a death wish today."

"Benefactor?"

Wenfeng and his bodyguard were shocked, and they looked at Chen with their eyes and mouths hanging.

"Hi little Flamy!" Chen smiled.

"Good day, Master Chen. I was just thinking of looking for you to show my utmost gratitude.

The Flaming Grim-Reaper boss ran to Chen with a big smile on his face and said, "My wife came back to me earlier, and she also forgave me! It's all thanks to you! From today onwards, you are my great benefactor!"

Chen put up a look of dawning realization and said, "This is good karma. I helped you before, this is why you are helping me right now."

"Right! Right! Right! You are right, master!" The boss nodded his head. By then, he had full trust in Chen, to the extent that even if Chen said his fart smell good, he would agree wholeheartedly. Witnessing all this, Wenfeng felt like he was being trampled by a thousand horses; he wanted to beat Chen up, but there was nothing that he can do. He had been looking forward to beating the man up. Things had taken a whole 180-degree turn now. He never expected that Chen would lure him here.

"Master, let's leave this place… There are dozens of gangsters staring at us. You are more precious than they are. If we don't back off, there will certainly be more blood spilled." The bodyguard said softly to Wenfeng.

"This..." Wenfeng was extremely unsatisfied, but he had no courage to risk his own life.

"Let's go!" Wenfeng said unwillingly.

"Leave? It seems like you're forgetting something." Chen said.

"You… What do you want?" Fear started to invade Wenfeng's body. He could sense that something really bad was going to happen to him.

"Just now, I made a promise to myself that I must slap you today!" Chen proclaimed with a straight face.

"You're going too far!" Wenfeng said, furiously.

After all, he was still the eldest son of Wen Family. He could barely accept the fact that Wen Tianyuan had slapped him, and he was furious about it. There was no way that he would let Chen slap him on the other side of his face.

"Me, going too far?" historical

Chen said condescendingly, "If Flaming Grim-Reaper had not been present, you will most likely be beating me to death already by now. Who's going too far, now?"

"This…" Wenfeng had no comeback.

Then, he shouted angrily, "I'm the eldest son of Wen Family! I will not allow you to slap me! Never!"

Clap!*

Clap!*

The boss clapped his hands lightly and people started to appear from different corners. There were around forty to fifty people. Also, every one of them were holding knives and steel pipes. It was the feeling of being surrounded by wolfs and tigers. It was like a classic mafia movie. Within a few seconds, the whole place was filled with gangsters.

"Shit..."

Wenfeng was completely petrified.

A scene like this, sent fear rushing to his heart. He was too afraid to even take another deep breath. There was nothing the bodyguard could do. He was well-trained, and could fight multiple opponents, but now there was a gang of gangsters with weapons in their hands, surrounding them. Even if he had ten lives, he would definitely burn through them.

"The two of you better listen to what Master Chen just said! Bear the consequences, if you choose not to listen to him." The boss gave them an ice-cold stare and threatened them.

He looked like a good kitty in front of Chen but when facing others, he spoke like a terrifying tiger.

"Come here!" Chen lifted up his hand and curled his finger - a come hither gesture.

"Just go, master... If not, we will die miserably…" The bodyguard was terrified. He couldn't protect himself from this, let alone Chen. Instead, he asked Wenfeng to do as he said.

"..."

Wenfeng's facial reaction was twisted. He felt oppressed. Looking at the scenario, he got no other choice but to obey.

PIAK!*

Chen did not even say a word, he lifted up his arm and slapped Wenfeng as hard as he could.

"Ouch!"

Wenfeng groaned agonizingly as his ass landed on the ground. A red palm print started to appear on his face, along with his forehead that was still bleeding. He looked like complete shit.

"Your face is really thick! My hand actually hurts!" Chen shook his hand, staring disapprovingly.

Tears were rolling down on Wenfeng's face. "My face is swollen right now. Of course, your hand is hurting! How much hatred is there? How deep is your grudge? Is it even necessary for you to hit me this hard?" Deep inside Wenfeng's heart, he cursed his grandfather, grandmother, great-grandfather, great-grandmother and all his family members for a hundred times!

However, he dared not show it in his face. He was afraid that Chen was going to slap him again.

"Fine! Both of you, get the f*ck out from here!" Chen said calmly.

Wenfeng and his bodyguard acted like they just received a pardon from death penalty. They left the scene as swiftly as possible. After that, Chen marked down the boss' cellphone number and left the west side of the city. The first thing that he did when he got the cab was to contact brother Zhu. He figured out that Brother Zhu must be very free, because he replied him instantly.

After Chen had handed a Charm of Marriage over to him, Brother Zhu had been treating him like a good friend. Chen could even skip all the formalities now.

Chen: Recently, I accepted one guy as my apprentice. I want to ask if there's a way for him to increase his true strength in the shortest time possible?

Brother Zhu: Training is a long process. If you want to improve your true strength in the shortest time possible, you have to acquire the Golden Pill from Lord Lao Zi.

Chen: Where can I get it?

Brother Zhu: If I'm not mistaken, you need one hundred thousand points of Triple Realms Merit Points to exchange one primary level Golden Pill.

Chen: What the f*ck?

Chen's hand shook and he almost dropped the phone.

If I get one point by saving one person, that would mean, that I'd have to save one hundred thousand people to get one hundred thousand points! This has got to be a joke.

Chen: Are there any other ways to get it? Actually, my requirements are not that high. All I want is he won't get bullied by other humans.

Brother Zhu: So, just some above average mortal strength? That's easy! Just borrow the "strength" from Yanwang, A.K.A, the King of Hell.

Chen: Erm, I'm not that close with Yanwang. I'm not sure if he's willing to lend me the "strength.

Brother Zhu: Logically speaking, he won't give it to you for free! However, he's actually a food hunter. If you are willing to offer him some really good food, it shouldn't be a problem at all!

Food hunter? Chen was stunned. He cannot comprehend that the King of Hell that commanded an army of devils was a food lover. Chen calmed himself down and found the profile picture of Yanwang.

Ding!

[Friend request sent to Yanwang.]

The cellphone vibrated after a few minutes.

Ding!

[Yanwang approved your friend request]

Chen had his eyes frozen on the cellphone's screen. His face was a petrified mask. There was a saying; if the King of Hell fixes the time of your death, no one would dare to mess with the time. It would be a bad idea for Chen to ignore the King of Hell.

Chen: Good day, Yanwang.

Yanwang: What's up?

Chen: So, I was told by Zhu Bajie that I can borrow some "true strength" from you to increase the true potential of mortal beings.

Yanwang: If Zhu Bajie told you about this, you should know the rules. Right? (Three smirking emojis)

Chen thought, "I don't believe that The King of Hell will use emojis. That's too damn adorable!"

Chen: Yes, I know about the rules. I'm willing to offer some really good food in return. So, the question is, what would you like to eat?

Yanwang: I don't really care about the taste. The most important thing is that I want something new. I'm sick of all the ordinary food. (Three arrogant emojis)

Yanwang: Alright. Please allow me to think for a while.

Yanwang: I'm going to attend a meeting at the eighteenth level of hell. You have five minutes to think about it. (Three clock emojis)

"Erm…."

Chen froze, he was getting more and more nervous.

It was eleven at night. He was sitting in the cab and tried to look for food stalls while the driver was driving around. Unfortunately, all the food stalls were closed. There was no way to look for any unique food for Yanwang in five minutes.

"Eh?"

Just when Chen felt like an ant in a hotpot, he noticed a packet of half eaten spicy sticks inside the cab driver's pocket. He couldn't care less due to time restriction. That would have to do.

Chen did not want to miss this opportunity. So, he asked the cab driver, "Sir, do you mind selling your half eaten spicy sticks?"

"Huh?"

The driver was shocked. He smiled and replied him casually, "Uh, it's already half-eaten. Well, if you don't mind, you can have it for free."

He handed his half-eaten spicy sticks over to Chen.

"Thank you so much!"

After Chen received the spicy sticks, he started to figure out a way to deliver the food to Yanwang.

He clicked on "Send Red Envelops" and he saw an "Accept" button. A beam of light shot out from the front camera when he clicked on it.

Fushhhh!*

The packet half-eaten spicy stick was wrapped inside a Red Envelope and was sent off to who knows where.

Ding!

[You just sent a Red Envelope to Yanwang.]

"What the hell! It's so easy sending a solid object! It's like magic!"

Chen was really impressed by it. He felt instant regret after realizing that he had just sent out a Red Envelope because it contained a packet of half-eaten spicy sticks. And it was headed to the King of Hell. It was a mockery. And insult. If Chen angers him and he decides to draws a red circle on his Book of Life, Chen will definitely die at a young age. The clock was ticking.

Chen started to get really nervous, "Pusha, please bless me! I pray that Yawang will not get angry at me even if it doesn't suit his tastes! I will be a piece of dead meat if he gets angry at me."

Ding!

The cellphone rang. Chen jumped. Dread feeling his body, he tentatively checked the message. Chen was stunned.

Yanwang: THIS IS TOO DAMN DELICIOUS! (Three drooling emojis)

Yanwang: My friend! Do you still have more? Can I have more please? I'm not satisfied!

Yangwang: My friend... My friend… Are you there? Please reply me as soon as possible when you see my message. historical

Looking at the message that popped up on his cellphone's screen, Chen started to question how the way the world worked. The King of Hell was getting crazy over some simple spicy sticks. This totally turned Chen's traditional viewpoint towards the King of Hell upside down. Was this even real?

Chen calmed himself down.

Chen: The delicacy that you just ate is called spicy sticks. They are extremely rare! I don't have more with me right now. If I acquire more in the future, I will definitely send them over.

Chen was not dumb. The King of Hell appreciated spicy sticks so much. He was going to make them appear as rare just as they were as precious to him. Yanwang will definitely be more appreciative. He would view this as a huge favor. It would be easier to ask for more favors from him in the future. This was known as the "starve-you-to-make-wish-come-true" strategy.

Yanwang: Too bad. Rare delicacies always come in small amounts… (Three disappointed emoji)

Yanwang: From this moment onward, you are my good friend now!

Ding!

[You have received a Red Envelope from Yanwang. It contains a High-Grade Netherspirit Battlescouter. It had been deposited inside your treasure chest.]

Chen was delighted at having received an item from The King of Hell. The name of the item was so cool. The point was, Chen acquired it by giving a packet of half-eaten spicy sticks to the King of Hell. This was too good to be true.

Yanwang: I'm going to attend another meeting right now. We will talk more, next time. Please remember to think of me first when you acquire more spicy sticks! (Three faces with drooling emojis)

Chen couldn't wait to open the treasure chest.

[High-Grade Netherspirit Battlescouter; handmade by Yanwang. It has more features as compared to the low-grade version! Do you wish to use it?]

"I can't believe there are different grades for this item. It seemed like Yanwang really sees me as a good friend." Chen smiled.

"Use it!"

Chen clicked on the item. A ray of ghastly blue light shot out from the treasure chest into Chen's left eye. Everything around him turned supernaturally blue. There were countless of ancient words from hell circling inside Chen's eye. It was like a million-year-old flowing river that contained a mysterious and unknown force. Eventually, all the ancient words formed a circle. It looked like an ancient magic circle. It buried itself deep inside Chen's left eye.

Ten plus minutes had passed when Chen regained his consciousness.

"Boy, you have arrived at the Green Vine University. Why do you look so stoned? Boy…" The cab driver was calling him numerous times.

"Erm… How much?"

Chen rubbed on his stoned face. He felt like he had just experienced astral projection for the past ten minutes. Finally, he responded to his surroundings.

"It will be a total of eighteen Yuan." The cab driver said.

"Alright. You can keep the change… Eh?" Chen took out twenty Yuan and handed it to him He was stunned when he lifted up his head and looked at the cab driver.

Ding!

Cultivation: N/A

Health: 5

Combat power: 5

A line of blue words, along with a blue arrow was pointing at the cab driver in the view of Chen's left eye.

"This must be one of the features of the High-Grade Netherspirit Battlescouter! So, this cab driver is just a useless piece of crap with five combat power. Hahaha!" Chen was getting really excited.

"How about my combat power?"

Ding!

Cultivation: N/A

Health: 1

Combat power: 4

"What the f*ck! That really sucks! I'm weaker than a cab driver…" Chen's face turned red. He was so ashamed of himself. He was more determined than before. It was a priority for him to improve his true strength!

After Chen paid, he walked towards the school gate. He noticed a gang of mean looking guys surrounding a lady at the corner. Chen might not have cared if it was some Jane Doe. However, the situation changed when Chen recognized the lady. She was Chen's class counselor. The fourth most gorgeous lady in Green Vine University; Lin Xiang.

historical

Chen came from a village, and his family's financial situation was not in a good shape. Before all of this, Chen had always skipped class to work at a part time job to buy an iPhone for Yao Bingbing. Sometimes, he would simply eat a bun instead of having a proper meal. As a class counselor, Lin Xiang had been very concerned for Chen. They had met at the school cafeteria twice, and she had offered to buy Chen a proper meal. It may not be much, but for Chen, that was a very warm-hearted and timely assistance! Chen was determined to rescue her from this tough situation.

"Chica! Your brother owes us some money, and today is the due date! Pay up, or you're coming with us!" A burly man was yelling at her.

There were three more followers behind him. All of them were looking at Lin lustfully. Their eyes were running up and down her curvaceous body.

Lin Xiang was twenty-four years old. She was one of the researchers of Green Vine University. Due to her excellent results, she was offered a tutoring job at Green Vine University. That was how she became Chen's class counselor. Compared to other university girls, Lin Xiang had a sense of grace and maturity. She was five foot five, athletic, long legs. Also, her derriere was breathtakingly voluptuous. Her breasts were well-developed and sumptuous, almost perfectly shaped. From the side, they looked like two great, marvelous mountains. Moreover, they boasted the impressive E cup size! Other than her curvaceous figure, her facial features were beyond perfect. Her skin was as fair as the first snow of winter. She also had a waist-length and silky midnight black hair. In addition to that, she had an unusually attractive oval face, with Miss Universe-like impeccable features. It was impossible to spot a flaw on her face. She was every man's dream girl. It was perfectly normal for a man to fantasize about her.

"Boss! I'm begging you right now! Please give me a few days to come up with the money that he owes you."

Lin Xiang's eyebrows were furrowed. Chen could not help but be entranced by her sorrowful look. He had an urge to hug her in his warm embrace and caress her.

"Cut the bullshit! My boss, Crazy Bill gave you a death penalty if you fail to return our money today. We will sell you to the Bewitching Brothel!"

"I did the calculations. You will receive three hundred Yuan for every "transaction" that you make. You will have to complete a thousand "transactions" to return the three hundred thousand Yuan that your brother owes Crazy Bill! Don't you worry, I will make sure to ask few of my brothers "support" you!" the guy with the black face laughed sleazily.

"Hehehe… Just come with us, Chica."

Three of his followers gave out their own sleazy laughs as they stretched out their hands to grab hold Lin.

"Don't you dare touch me! I'm going to scream!"

Lin came from a rather poor family. She had always been oppressed throughout her life. Also, she was known for being soft-spoken and kind. Faced with a situation like this, tears started to flow down her eyes.

"Oh, please scream. Scream your throat raw! Nobody will come and rescue you! The louder, the better. Hehehe…"

The four of them were laughing lustfully. They even had the urge to push her on the ground take her on the spot. At that moment, Chen showed up like a hero and gave the four of them a gaze of death.

"Where did this weak shit come from? Do you have a death wish? Mind your own business!"

The guy with a black face stepped forward. Three of his followers stepped in right after him. They puffed their chests up and approached Chen.

"Chen! Run away! Just leave me…" Lin got really nervous.

Although Lin really needed someone to rescue her right now, in her eyes, Chen was just an ordinary student who actually almost failed his fitness test. How would it be possible for him to fight off four gangsters? She certainly did not want Chen to get hurt. Her kindness was really beyond amazing.

"Don't be afraid Ms. Lin. I will not let them hurt you."

Chen's eyes blinked and four tags started to show up above their heads.

Combat power: 7

Combat power: 8

Combat power: 9

Combat power: 10

Obviously, he was nowhere close being their match. However, Chen was unafraid, having figured out the other functions of the Netherspirit Battlescouter.

"I wish to borrow the power of Xiangyu, The King." Chen said softly. Instantly, the Netherspirit Battlescouter spun like a giant wheel, and countless ancient characters released some mysterious divine strength. The power linked Yin and Yang together. It was like the heaven and earth had a radical change. The power of Xiangyu, The King was being channeled into Chen's body.

Ding!

Combat power: 5000

"Oh my God! This is the true strength of Xiangyu! The power that would allow me to fight against one thousand enemies!" Chen trembled in excitement. He felt like a powerful king. No mortal being would be able to fight against him. His body was fired up. In his vein danced the blood of heroes. This was the true man! The true hero! Chen had never felt like this before. From today onwards, his soul will thirst for more power, and he would fight for it.

"Little shit! Did you hear me? I'm going to count to three. You better get lost before we beat you up real bad!" The guy with the black face yelled at him and rubbed his fists. He stepped in, fist raised.

Among the four gangsters, he was the strongest one of them all, with a combat power of ten. However, in Chen's eyes, he was just as weak as an ant. No, he was like a speck of dust.

"I want the four of you to kneel in front of Ms. Lin and beg for forgiveness!" Chen said calmly.

"Asshole, do you have a screw loose somewhere? Or are you just really stupid?! Since you have a death wish, I grant it to you!"

The guy with the black face lost his patience. He rushed to Chen like a bull, sending a fist flying at his face.

"So slow..."

Chen did not even try to dodge the punch. In Chen's eyes, he was like a lagging in-game character.

"Chen! Run!..."

Lin was certain Chen was going to lose all his teeth. She squeezed her eyes shut, bracing for it;

"Ouch! It hurts!"

The guy with black face was shouting in agony. When Lin opened her eyes, she saw the black faced man's fist being crushed in Chen's grip. He was screaming in pain. His face was twisted, and his forehead drenched in sweat.

"Do you want to kneel now?" Chen said calmly, a powerful dominating aura coming out from him.

"F*ck you! I have never kneeled in front of anyone, since the day I became a gangster, for the last ten years!" The black face guy gnashed his teeth in anger and said.

"Very well. I respect you for that. You're a true man." Chen's stare turned ice-cold and lifted up his hand to slap him.

PIAK!*

It was like an explosion. The man flew sixteen feet away.

Blargggh!*

A mouthful of fresh blood came out from the mouth of black face guy. He lay motionless.

"How about you guys? Are you going to kneel and beg for forgiveness or do you want to become "true men", like your boss?" Chen gave them a gaze of death.

The three of them were scared to death as Chen turned his deadly gaze upon them.

Report chapter Comments

Erm…

The three of them were paralyzed in fear. Their boss weighed over one hundred and seventy-six pounds. He had been slapped senseless, literally. The slap also brought out a mouthful of blood. It wasn't a laughing matter. Also, they were sure that he had spat some teeth out. How would they fight such a monster?

POM!*

POM!*

POM!*

Their legs went soft and they kneeled on the ground. They looked at Lin and started to beg, "Madam Lin! We know we did the wrong thing! It's totally our fault! Please forgive us!"

Lin was stunned. It was like a dream to her. She couldn't believe what just happened in front of her.

After some time, she was still trembling. "You guys can leave now…" She said.

Her voice sounded like the voice of an angel. The three men hurried over and lifted the body of their fallen superior. He was still coughing blood. They left the scene as swiftly as rabbits.

"Fuhhhh….."

Chen took a long breath, and the power of Xiangyu left his body. Fatigue started to show up on his face, and his right hand turned red and swollen. The pain started to crawl in between his bones.

"As expected, the strength from Xiangyu was really powerful, but my body is still too weak to handle the overwhelming power. I hurt myself more than I expected by handing out a single punch. This cannot go on for long. I must find a way to train myself stronger." Chen told himself secretly.

Ding!

[You received one point of Triple Realms Merit for saving a lady.]

Ding!

[Three points of Triple Realms Merits have been deducted from you. Now your points are -1. Level: Bad guy.]

"What the f*ck?! How is it possible that my point is -1 right now?" Chen was really confused.

When Chen was trying figure out the function of Netherspirit Battlescouter just now, he realized that all the famous people inside the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms were no longer alive. They were all ghosts from hell.

Two choices would be given to a person when he/she died. The first option was, he/she could choose to drink the Soup of Mengpo and crossed the bridge of life to go through the process of reincarnation. The second option was, the person could choose to stay at hell and begin training as a ghost. When he/she accumulated a certain amount of Triple Realms Merit Point, he/she would become a deity and ascend to heaven. It was extremely difficult for a ghost to earn Triple Realms Merit Point. Most of the people would choose to go through the process of reincarnation. Only few would choose to stay and train in hell. Xiangyu, the King was one of them.

"The three points that were taken from me must have been transferred to Xiangyu. Such is the price of borrowing strength from a ghost." Chen concluded. It was only reasonable to pay for such power.

Chen was more bothered about the '-1' point now. He had been officially categorized as a bad guy. This is going to be a problem.

"Chen… Are you alright? Lin walked towards Chen and asked.

"Oh… Nothing…" Chen scratched his nose tip and said.

There was no way that he would tell his deepest secrets to others.

"You don't look good. Are you sick?" Lin Xiang was a really attentive woman. She quickly noticed Chen's change. She walked towards Chen. She lifted up her fair hand and placed it softly on Chen's forehead.

Her graceful, fair hand felt cold. Her movements were slow and gentle. It was like rain drops had landed on Chen's face. It moistened up Chen's heart.

Looking at the masterpiece in front of him and smelling the subtle lily-like fragrance that came from Lin's body made Chen's mind jump around like a wild horse.

"There's no fever, but you still don't look good to me. Do you want me to bring you to the hospital?" Lin retrieved her hand and said in a concerned tone.

"Don't worry. I'll be fine. All I need is a good nights sleep to be fully recovered." Chen smiled.

There were two more bottles of Fluid of Hundred Herbs inside Chen's treasure chest. All he needed to do was consume a drop from it to solve all his physical problems. It was not necessary to go to hospital at all.

"Hold up! Chen…can you come home with me?" Lin said suddenly. Her voice was soft, like a whisper in the wind. Also, she appeared to be blushing a little as she asked Chen that.

Come? Home? Chen cannot believe what he just heard. His jaw dropped to the ground.

"What…..Ms Lin, you are, gorgeous. I totally wouldn't mind walking you home. But….is it ok for us to move to second base at such a fast pace?"

"What do you mean by second base?"

When Lin figured out what Chen was saying, her ear lobes turned red. "Please don't think of such nonsense! I'm just worried that the bad guys might be waiting for me at my place. I'll be more relieved to have you with me."

"Erm…."

Chen was very disappointed. He thought he could have had some "fun" with Lin tonight. Then again, there was a high possibility that the black faced guy who he just defeated will come seeking for vengeance. It will be bad if Lin got hurt because of that.

"Let's go. I'm willing to become your personal bodyguard." Chen agreed to go with her without hesitation.

"Ok…" Lin nodded her head. She followed Chen like a wife.

Lin was staying in a slum that was located at the west side of the city. Houses at that area were extremely old and broken. There was not a single valuable item that could be found in her house. It was strange. Lin should be paid quite well since she worked for the university. It must be Lin's brother that is causing her to live in such bad conditions. On the way, Chen had asked about her brother for a few times and he also mentioned that he was more than willing to lend her some money. However, Lin remained silent on the matter, also refusing Chen's aid. Maybe she thought that Chen was still a poor farmer and had no money of his own. In the end, the night went by peacefully. Chen slept in her brother's room.

On the second day, Chen and Lin took a public bus to the university.

A few days passed by without anything happened. Other than checking out the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms every day, Chen added a new routine to his daily life; training. Chen noticed how weak and small he was after he borrowed strength form Xiangyu. Also, he was dying to become as strong as Xiangyu. Brother Zhu was right. Training was long and head. Since Chen decided to go on this way, he must first conquered his own mindset.

As a guy that almost failed his fitness test and also an Otaku. He changed his lifestyle completely after Lin's incident. Other than sleeping and eating, Chen will spend most of his time on the field to train himself. The amount of training that he did in these five days exceeded the training that he did for the past six months. His hardcore training came with rewards. He triggered his Netherspirit Battlescouter to check himself out. His new attribute showed up.

Paragon level: 0

Health: 3 historical

Combat power: 10

"What I yield is what I work, this make total sense to me right now!" Chen smiled. His smile was astonishingly jubilant.

Although there was still a big gap between the combat power of him and Xiangyu, he was still very proud of his own improvement.

Ring!*

Chen's cellphone rang and it was her goddess, Lan calling him. Today is Sunday. She promised Chen that she will treat her a meal. Also, she wanted to do something with Chen as well.

Without a word, Chen rushed to the university's gate and waited for her. Uncle Qin was not with her today. She drove a low-profile Audi. Her eyes opened wide when Chen got in the car.

"Master Chen! You have changed!"

"I've changed? I don't think so…" Chen was shocked.

"You look tanned! You definitely bulked up from the last time I saw you. Also, you definitely look manlier now!"

Lan's magical and magnificent eyes were filled with wonder and curiosity. It was really hard to believe that there was such a huge transformation on Chen's body in just five days.

"Hehehe! It was because I worked out every day to gain a better body." Chen scratched the tip of his nose. Chen was so happy when he received compliments from her goddess. The effort that he put in his body was not wasted.

"Training? Are you planning to join sports day?" Lan asked.

She was the president of student council. Naturally, the first thing that came across her mind was sports day.

"Sports day? I have never thought about it." Chen shook his head and said.

The only reason that motivated him to workout, was that he wanted to become a real man, like Xiangyu! He wished to possess the strength that allowed him to fight against ten thousand people and enjoyed the feeling of overlooking the other mortal beings who were beneath him.

"Actually, you can consider joining the sport day. Girls normally like sporty boys." Lan said.

"That means you like them too?" Chen smiled and said.

"Yes! A man should act like man! I like to see men sweat it out on the field! Also, I like watching them get boiled up as they compete against each other."

Lan was a girl who came from rich and prestigious family. She was more open and knowledgeable compared to other people. Also, she was pretty open when it came to relationships. It was so different as compared to the other ordinary, mild-mannered girls who were clueless about their own desires.

"Hehe… I must work harder from now on!" There was a rush inside his heart.

It was natural for every man to pursue their dream girl, but most of them were weak when it came to real action. Since Chen joined the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms, he had turned a lot of impossibles to reality. He could do anything that he wanted to do right now.

"Alright! I'm going to make my dream girl my girlfriend!" Chen was going to try to pursue Lan.

"Right. It is still early. What else do you want to do other than having a meal with me?" Chen changed the topic.

He put aside the sports day matter because he had planned to give Lan a big surprise.

"You mentioned to me that you wanted to buy a house, Right? I checked out a few other houses, and I'm going to show them to you today." Lan said.

"You are so busy all the time but you still helped me to search for houses!" Chen was touched.

Shortly after, the two of them begun their journey. Lan was a thoughtful and smart girl. The lots that she chose were from some very well-thought out choices. All of them were perfect for Chen's parents. The real estate agent offered a twenty percent discount because her family was well-known in Green Vine City. For example, if the lot had cost one million Yuan, Chen would actually save two hundred thousand Yuan.

"What do you think after seeing so many houses. Do you see the one that you like?" Lan asked.

"I like all the houses that you chose." Chen put on his genuine smile. He liked Lan even more now.

This goddess might look ice-cold all the time. In addition to that, she also came from the richest and the most prestigious family in Green Vine City. However, if she became someone's wife, she would definitely be the most devoted wife.

"Even though you like all of them, you can't buy them all, right? Just pick one and I will do the talking. You should be able to get at least a thirty percent discount," Lan said.

Chen thought about it for a while and said, "My mom and dad live in a very simple house. They are worried that they can't get used to drastically more luxurious conditions. So, I'll get the last bungalow that we saw. But, I don't have enough money. I'll have to come back next time."

"You are such an extraordinary son..." Lan's dreamy eyes glazed over. Her impression towards Chen was getting better and better.

"My dad and mom are farmers. They worked really hard to support me in order to study in the city. Now, I have the ability to make their life better. I want to give them the best of everything." Chen said it earnestly.

"Good lots will get sold off really fast. I'm willing to cover part of the cost for you first. You can always pay me back later."

Lan took out a "Black Card" and proclaimed in a regal, strong voice, "Manager, I would like to pay using my "Black Card". I'm taking the ninth bungalow."

This was not a small amount. The bungalow cost thirty-five million! And, Lan just paid for Chen casually. She was an impressive woman. Initially, Chen did not want Lan to cover the part of the cost for him, but she had already swiped her card out. All that he could do right now was to return the money to her as soon as possible.

"You did me a great favor today! Just choose a restaurant that you wish to go. I'm going to pay for it." Chen said gratefully.

"Alright!" Lan said it instantly. She did not protest, wisely allowing the man to have his pride.

After that, the two of them drove to Fragrant Lake Restaurant. When they reached the front door of the restaurant, Chen's face turned sour. There was a couple walking towards the door as well. They were none other than Yao Bingbing and Shi Mingwei.

"Asshole! I'm seeing this poor farmer everywhere! What a bad day!" Shi said it pointedly. However, Bing's facial reaction was really complicated. Recently, she had always been thinking about the six million cash that Chen had received earlier. She was so regretful about breaking up with Chen. Also, she did not sleep and eat well.

She even considered reconciling with Chen. But, seeing Chen with Lan the goddess, she gave up the thought completely. As compared to Lan, Bing was a pile of thrash. Unless, Chen suffered some kind of brain damage from the kick of a donkey, he will never accept Bing again.

"Shi Mingwei, this is a public place. Please watch your words!" Lan stared at him with her ice-cold gaze. It looked a freezing ray that was going for his very soul.

"Hmph! That's none of your business!" Shi curled his lips in disdain. There were three words written on his face; I DON'T CARE! He did not feel the need to flatter and fawn on her, knowing that she had no regard for him at all.

"It's like talking to a cow!" historical

Lan rolled her eyes at Shi and said, "Chen, let's go in. We don't have to stand here and waste our precious time talking to this kind of people."

"I'm disgusted by this pair of couple, I don't even want to talk to them." Chen nodded his head and walked into the restaurant.

"Asshole! Hold on right there! Poor farmers like you have no right stepping into Fragrant Lake Restaurant!" Shi couldn't let them go. So, he rushed to them and stop them from going inside.

"You can't stop me like this, you dolt! This restaurant does not belong to you!" Chen said unhappily.

"Shut the f*ck up! This restaurant belongs to my friend; Brother Feng. I can kick you out with a call!"

Shi shouted, "Manager! Where the hell is the manager?! Come here right now!"

Soon enough, a man with suit responded and came to him quickly. He smiled and said, "Hey. What brings you here; Master Shi? Your presence brings purpose to our shop."

This guy had small eyes and chubby face. His words were full of flattery. Without any doubt, Chen knew he was the kind of guy that liked to swarm up to the rich.

"You can stop licking my boots! I want this guy to be kicked out from this restaurant! Now! Immediately!" Shi said arrogantly.

"I'm afraid… That goes against the rules." The manager hesitated.

Chen was just an ordinary guy. It was easy to kick him out. But, a gorgeous and graceful lady was standing beside Chen. The manger did not know Lan's identity because she always stayed in a low profile. However, his trained eyes told him that she was someone who mattered.

Shi still cannot let it go. He said, "Rules? Rules can be thrown away with my relationship with Brother Feng. Do you believe that I will call him right now to fire you?!"

Report chapter Comments

"Don't! Don't! Don't! Please don't say something like that, Master Shi. Please hold on for a while."

The manager was so afraid when he heard the name, Master Feng. He quickly walked towards Lan and said softly, "I'm really sorry Miss. As you can see, there's nothing much I can do here. Is it possible for the two of you to go to another restaurant? I will give you a twenty percent discount the next time you come here!"

The person that he chose to talk to was Lan. Based on that fact, it showed that the manager did not care about Chen at all. Frankly speaking, he thought Chen was Lan's boy toy. Not just any boy toy but a very obedient boy toy.

"Fine. We will go to another restaurant." Lan saw that the manager was being very polite. She had no intention of making the situation any more difficult.

However, Chen was not happy about it at all. He had been ignored by the manager and ridiculed by Shi and Bing. He had a hard time accepting what just happened to him. Also, he was not the yes-man anymore. His mindset towards himself had changed.

"Why should we go to another restaurant? I promised that I will have a meal with you in this restaurant. Nothing is going to change that!" Chen looked really determined. He had made up his mind and he was ready to take the heat as well.

Lan frowned a little and sighed in her heart when she heard things that Chen said. She realized that she had underestimated Chen's pride.

Shi shouted at the manager, "Manager! Kick him out right now! I will call Brother Feng if you don't do it right now!"

"Don't! Don't! Don't!" The manager started to panic.

He continued to persuade Lan, "For Christ's sake, Miss, I'm pretty sure you know who is Master Feng right? Just consider that you are doing Master Feng a big favor. Please, go to another restaurant."

"Wenfeng?"

Lan was slightly shocked. She knew Wenfeng was the inheritor of second biggest family in Green Vine City. However, she did not respond this time. She said softly to Chen, "Chen, you can decide."

The manager was shocked. He never thought that a graceful lady like Lan will follow Chen's decision.

"Sir, please do Master Feng a favor!" The manager's attitude towards Chen changed completely. He was totally licking Chen's boot now.

"Hmph! If it's any other person, I will definitely give way without any hesitation. I don't really care about Wenfeng. This guy has no shame." Chen said condescendingly.

He had slapped Wenfeng a few nights ago. It was impossible for him to do Wenfeng a favor.

"Douche bag! Stop being so arrogant! Nobody dares to disobey Master Feng! You, wait here! I'm going to call Brother Feng right now! Get your ass ready to be kicked!"

Shi was so angry that he literally screamed out the words. Also, the manager was getting angry as well. He felt that Chen was not being considerate.

"Come here! Check this out!" Chen took out a shiny golden card from his pocket. He shook the card in front of the manager.

"This….This…"

The manager had his eyes and mouth fixed on the card. After some time, he shouted in a surprised tone, "I can't believe you own the Super VVIP card of Wen organization!"

"What?!"

Shi and Bing were so shocked when they saw Chen holding the card. There were only three Super VVIP cards of the Wen organization in Green Vine City. They never expected one of the cards to be possessed by Chen. With this card, Chen could enjoy and utilize the authority of CEO of Wen organization. Even Lan was so surprised that Chen actually owned the card. Her eyes were wide open.

"Fake card! This must be a fake card! He is just a poor farmer! How is it possible for him to possess the real card?!" Shi shouted furiously.

The manager shook his head and said, "Master Shi…..this card is genuine. I can say that to you with absolute certainty."

Shi's facial reaction became twisted and the raging contents of his lungs were going to make him explode.

"Now, do I need still need to do Master Feng any favors?" Chen said condescendingly.

Wenfeng might be the inheritor of Wen family. But, the CEO of the family was the one who truly manages the company. That being said, according to the order of things, Wenfeng should be the one respecting Chen. There was no need to do Wenfeng any favors.

"Listen carefully. I want you to kick these two people out of Fragrant Lake Restaurant! Put them both in blacklist. I do not want them to step foot at this place anymore. Chen stared at both of them with the gaze of death. Chen definitely looked like the most powerful man in this world right now.

On the other hand, Shi and Bing felt like they had just been trampled by a thousand horses. It looked like they needed a deep hole to crawl in right now.

"The two of you! Please leave, right now! Fragrant Lake restaurant no longer welcomes the both of you!" The manager said condescendingly. His attitude had flipped over in an instant.

"Please don't do this to us! I'm Master Feng's bro!" Shi gritted his teeth and said.

"I don't care if Master Feng is your bro or your friend! Words that came out from the Sir over there are as powerful as our CEO. I will call security to kick you out if you still refuse to leave this place!" The manager straightened up his face and there was no sense of doubt in his words. Shi was so furious to the point that he wanted to vomit blood. Besides that, Bing looked like she could use some "aloe-vera". She wanted to slap herself as hard as possible. It was pretty obvious that she suffered a "third degree burn". She could not understand why she chose to break up with Chen earlier.

After this, Chen and his goddess; Lan entered the restaurant. They became the Super VVIP of the restaurant. On the other hand, Shi and Bing were being cast away like devils. Actually, Bing will not suffer the "burn" if she had not chosen Shi over Chen.

While waiting for the dishes to be served, Chen took out his cellphone and checked on the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms. He was delighted to see that the deities had started to pour out Red Envelopes into the group. He decided not to care about anything else around him and started to snatch the Red Envelopes with his two hands like nobody's business.

For the past five days, people were just talking in the group. There were no Red Envelopes to be snatched. This was why Chen is going crazy over it. The chances of getting the Red Envelopes will be increased when there were a lot of Red Envelopes to be snatched. Chen got an Red Envelope after a few seconds.

Ding!

[Congratulation on getting a Red Envelope from the Howling Celestial Dog. You have received a packet of dog food. It has been deposited inside your treasure chest.]

"What the f*ck! How is possible for the Howling Celestial Dog to give out Red Envelopes? I know I'm a "single-dog"1 but it is totally unnecessary to give me a packet of dog food."

Chen was confused, and swiped the notification aside without reading any further. He continued to tap on his cellphone.

"Chen, what are you doing?" Lan asked curiously.

"I'm snatching Red Envelopes….Can you entertain yourself for a while….?" Chen did not even lift up his head and look at Lan while he talked to her.

Lan was struck by Chen's words and she started to become gloomy. She was the most beautiful girl in the university. There were a lot of men did not even have the chance to dine with her. And, here Chen was, neglecting her and snatching some "Red Envelopes" in a stupid cellphone game. Lan curled up her lips and started to get angry.

"Eh? Hold on! Lan Mengchen! What the hell is wrong with you? Why are you getting angry at Chen? Could it be that….you like him?" Lan was shocked and her gorgeous face was full of surprise. historical

Before this, she always treated other guys coldly. This was how she get the name Ice-Cold Beauty. However, she was getting angry at Chen for neglecting her. This was definitely a dangerous sign! Lan shook her head and tried to calm herself down.

[Congratulation on snatching The Prime of Tongtian's Red Envelope. You have received The Ultimate Scripture of Heaven and Earth. It has been deposited inside your treasure chest.]

"Wow! Triple kill! And, I even received The Scripture of Heaven and Earth from The Prime of Tongtian! This is unbelievable!" Chen was literally jumping around out of joy after he heard the notification from his cellphone.

Lan was getting more and more unhappy when she saw Chen behaving like this. Chen was not even impressed when she helped Chen to cover the thirty-five million Yuan for the bungalow that he chose. She couldn't understand why was Chen getting hyped up over some worthless Red Envelopes. Lan pouted her lips and stared at Chen angrily with her big and dreamy eyes. That was right! Lan was officially getting jealous over some Red Envelopes.

She would never know how valuable and powerful the items that Chen just received. The Prime of Tongtian was one of the Sanqing. He was on the same level with Lord Lao Zi and the Primeval Lord of Heaven. Also, the Prime of Tongtian was the most arrogant, and flamboyant one among the Sanqing. He always did things that were super crazy and cool. His Red Envelope would never disappoint Chen.

As expected, the wave of Red Envelopes that were flooding the group came to a complete halt. It was all replaced by the group members' words of envy.

Majachenmo: What the f*ck! Who snatched away The Scripture of Heaven and Earth from the Prime of Tongtian? (Unlimited number of shocking emojis)

Jade Emperor: No way! I can't believe The Prime of Tongtian gave out the scripture of Heaven and Earth! Is he going to take in some apprentice?

God Erlang said: Why didn't I get anything? Why??!! (Three going crazy emojis)

Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King said: Who the hell is Chen Xiaobei? His luck is beyond imagination! (Three staring emojis)

Bull Demon King: Shit! I can't believe I missed this golden opportunity! I want to become his apprentice! (Three crying emojis)

Guardian of Ground: Chen is the future Great God! Any more space on his legs? I'm so going to hump it!

Heavenly soldier: Great God! I want to hug the furs of your legs!

Looking at the messages and comments that flooded the whole group made Chen really nervous. It was pretty obvious that Chen received a Super Red Envelope. It actually made all those deities so jealous of him. The thing that Chen should be concerned about was the attention that he was receiving from all those deities. There was a saying; rumors surface when one gets too famous. If the true identity of Chen was exposed, he would definitely be expelled from this group. The thing that he was most worried about now came to him without any warning.

Ding!

Ding!

Ding!

His cellphone started to vibrate crazily, he received countless friend requests and the notifications flooded his screen. All kind of deities and demons wanted to be his friend right now. Chen was getting more and more worried. He had a feeling that his good days were coming to an end.

"Prediction… Let me predict my own future first!"

Chen calmed himself down. Luckily, he still had an ultimate item that he could rely on.

"Good prediction! Great luck incoming!"

After his prediction, he finally felt relieved. His prediction skill was failproof.

"If I'm going to have good luck, why should I be worried or afraid! Lan, let's eat now." Chen smiled and tossed his phone aside. He decided to let those deities and demons do whatever they wanted to do.

"Hmph!" Lan pouted.

Chen was not stupid. He knew that he had just neglected the most beautiful girl in school to snatch some Red Envelopes. Chen triggered his "Super-Good-Guy" mode. He served her with different dishes and refilled tea for her from time to time. Also, he told a lot of funny jokes to make her laugh.

By the time they had finished their meal, Lan was not angry anymore. She was laughing uncontrollably. Her mood had lightened up again. The night wind was cold and the moon was bright enough to create a soothing effect. The atmosphere of the path in the university was like a warm embrace.

"Chen, I think we are friends. Right?" Lan asked abruptly.

"Needless to say. Of course, we are friends!" Chen smiled. Looking at Lan's gorgeous face, his heart was beating faster and faster."

"Do you want to chill at my house?" Lan asked again.

"Your home? Chill?"

Chen was shocked and said, "Of course, the answer is going to be a yes. But, is it ok for us to move on at such a fast pace?"

Eh? It sounded familiar. Chen had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where and when he had heard it.

"What do you mean by move on?"

Lan rolled her eyes on Chen and said in a pouty tone, "What kind of nonsense is that? What I'm trying to say is, I want to invite you to my grandma's birthday party! It happens three days from now!"

"Erm…"

Chen was so embarrassed. He finally recalled that he had said the same thing to Lin Xiang.

"I think I'm sick. I need to see a doctor. I'm such a dirty bastard for always thinking about doing my Lan." Chen thought.

"Yes! I'm willing to go!" Chen quickly nodded his head. He could not let Lan know about his dirty thoughts.

"That's good!"

Lan smiled, "I will contact you before my grandma's birthday party. I'm bringing you in to transform your image."

"Oh… Great!" Chen scratched the tip of his nose and thought that it was time for him to toss away the poor farmer image. He thought, "I have money now. I should treat myself better."

"Remember, three days from now. Don't miss the appointment." The corners of Lan's lips moved upwards slightly. Her eyes were like the stars in the sky that shone right into Chen's heart.

"So gorgeous..." Chen was gasping in admiration and Lan was pouting playfully.

After Chen sent Lan back to her dorm, he walked to a spot where he was sure no one could see him. He quickly took out his cellphone. It was his intention to check on the three Red Envelopes that he received earlier. He saw a message when he turned on his cellphone. The profile picture of the person who had left him a message was rather good looking. His name was The Prime of Tongtian.

"Oh shit! The previous owner of the Scripture of Heaven and Earth is here to look for me! But, I had not added him as a friend..." Chen was getting really confused. He opened the message and read it.

The Prime of Tongtian: Young man, don't be afraid. I used my mighty power to modify the coding of Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms. Divine "hacking", if you will. That was why I could add you as my friend without your consent.

"What the f*ck! How is it possible for him to know what I am thinking of right now!?" Chen was really surprised.

The Prime of Tongtian: I know the things that you are thinking right now and I also know that you have enormous potential within you. That was why I gifted you the Scripture of Heaven and Earth.

"I'm going to faint right now. Please don't tell me that he is going to ask me to protect the earth next because that's how a typical movie proceeds." Chen felt like something bad was going to happen.

There was no need to type out a single word when Chen chatted with The Prime of Tongtian, because he could read Chen's mind.

The Prime of Tongtian: You are witty enough to know what is going to happen. However, your assumption is wrong. I don't need you to protect the earth. I need you to maintain the peace between the three different realms. Prepare your heart. It is going to happen soon!

"No way… You are really scaring me…" Chen kept on swallowing his saliva because this incident had evolved into something that he couldn't possibly handle.

The Prime of Tongtian: I don't have time to explain anything more to you right now. I have a meeting to attend at the Great Void. What I want you to do right now is to train yourself as hard as possible. I'm going to look for you when I have more time.

"Hold on! The Prime of Tongtian! Will I be kicked out from the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms?" Chen asked quickly. It had been nagging at him since the beginning. historical

The Prime of Tongtian: Don't you worry. From today onwards, you are my apprentice. If anyone offends you in the group, mark down their names, and I will use my Godkiller Sword to destroy them.

"I'm more relieved now…" Chen took a long sigh.

The Prime of Tongtian was the most arrogant one among the Sanqing. At the same time, he valued the code of brotherhood a lot. He always did take care of his apprentices. According to the legendary tale of League of Gods, he created the Godkiller Formation to battle with Four Saints in order to protect his apprentice. Looking at the current circumstances, the legend was true.

"I'm so lucky to have such a crazy yet almighty master. The next thing that I should is to train myself as hard as possible," Chen smiled, a clear, definite goal set out in his mind.

"Let's put aside the matter of maintaining the peace of three realms. Firstly, I have to become as strong as Xiangyu. A man who can fight against a thousand people. It's time to check out the Red Envelopes that I received earlier." Chen gathered his thoughts and opened up the treasure chest.

There was a Monkey Fur of Prosperity, a Charm of Marriage, a bottle of the Potion of a Thousand Herbs, The Scripture of Heaven and Earth, a Pill of Purification, and a packet of dog food for the Heavenly Dog. The last three items were the items that he had received earlier tonight. He put aside the dog food and checked on the two items.

[The Pill of Purification was handcrafted by Duobao Daoren. It can be used to purify and transform your physical body. Do you want to withdraw it?]

"Purify and transform, huh? It should set up a good foundation for my training. I'll have to try it now!" Chen thought. He ran as fast as a wild horse to the school gate. He found a high-class hotel, booked a room, locked all the windows and doors, and finally drew the curtains. Making sure everything was secure, Chen then clicked on the withdraw button with a heart that was filled with excitement. The outer look and the texture of the pill looked like a round jade. There was a purple aura surrounding the pill. The scent of the pill was very pleasant for one to sniff in as well. Chen took a sniff and he was so refreshed and energetic.

"Time for me to experience the medicinal effect of the Pill of purification!" Without a second thought, Chen took the pill.

The moment the pill entered Chen's mouth, he felt like he just fell inside a burning furnace. No doubt, this was a heavenly pill. Every corner of his body was being burned by fire right now. In only a few seconds, he could already feel his body starting to melt. It was a horrendous feeling, but Chen knew better than anyone that he needed to stay strong. This was the only path to success.

Right now, Chen was like a piece of scrap metal. In order to become a good piece of billet ready for forging, he needed to cast out all the impurities from within his body and break down his spiritual shackles. All these efforts were to create an optimum physical body that could go through the training that Chen was going to do. Chen was sweating like a mad dog because of the medicinal effect of the pill.

He took off his shirt, and pants, and sat in a meditative position. Slowly, his sweat poured down his body. The color of the sweat was getting darker and darker as well. In the end, it became pitch black.

Times flew when one did not pay attention to it. Along with the disappearance of the burning sensation, the process of purification was officially a success. Chen turned into a mud man. His whole body was covered with pitch black oil stain. He smelled horrible as well. This probably meant that he had transformed from a piece of scrap metal into something pure, something new. He entered the bathroom and turned the water to the highest pressure.

Shuhhhh!*

When the drops of hot water landed on his body, the oil stains went away instantly.

"Oh man! This is so good!" Chen shouted out loud.

He had never felt so good for the past nineteen years. It was beyond amazing. Every inch of his skin, down to every single piece of his muscles were rejuvenated. Also, every single drop of his blood down to every single cell was filled with brand new life. He could feel every change that was happening in his body.

The changes on his outer body were clearly visible. His bronze skin tone had turned fair and smooth. It was even better than a woman's skin. Also, there was not a single flaw in his skin. The aged pimples disappeared as well. Originally, he had already looked pretty good. By the time he came out from his shower, he looked even better than before. He looked like a model from a fitness magazine. Lan would be very surprised the next time she sees him.

"If my skin is so perfect. I'm pretty sure the condition of my internal body should be in tip-top condition as well."

After Chen cleaned his body, he picked up his cellphone and said, "Now, everything is ready. I should go on with my training now."

[The Scripture of Heaven and Earth was created by The Prime of Tongtian. It is a top-secret heavenly scripture. Do you wish to withdraw it?"

"Yes!"

A thumb-sized jade charm appeared in his palm after he tapped the screen. Before he could examine the jade charm in detail, a light of seven colors bloomed right out from the jade charm. It filled the room within a second.

"Erm…."

Chen started to feel dizzy. It was like the whole world was spinning. Tonnes of river-long information started to flow inside Chen's mind. The quintessence of The Scripture of Heaven and Earth was stored inside his brain.

"This is so magical! I don't even need to memorize anything from it. I can start my training right away!"

Chen calmed himself down and followed what the scripture told him to do to start the training. He cultivated his mind by combining his aura with the aura of nature. When the two combined, Chen found that some kind of unique aura was oozing out from his body. It was like a dragon circling between heaven and earth.

He cultivated his mind for the second time. The dragon circled the space between heaven and earth for the second time as well. This time, Chen could clearly feel that his body was way stronger than before. It wasn't a huge change, but, everything starts from scratch, including training. He realized that he needed to accumulate all these training experience to become stronger. Chen was completely drowned inside this out of this world feeling.

Chen trained until the next morning. Suddenly, a message popped out from Netherspirit Battlescouter. He finally stopped his training.

Ding!

[Congratulation! You have reached another level of training! Cultivation: Early state of physical phase, Health: 100, Combat power: 100]

"Oh my God! The Scripture of Heaven and Earth was more than just a normal heavenly scripture! I have reached another level of training in just one night! This is so exciting!" Chen's face was filled with excitement.

His combat power had reached one hundred after the first training. It was more than enough to fight against normal humans. Unless he met someone that much stronger than him, there was no need to borrow any strength from the dead and deduct his Triple Realms Merit point. If his Triple Realms Merit point continued to drop, he will be turned from a bad guy to criminal, from criminal to super villain, from super villain to villain of the decade, from villain of the decade to villain of the century. The list went on. He would definitely be struck by lightning if he became a super villain.

Chen thought that it was definitely better to rely on his own strength instead of relying on the dead king's strength.

Sob*

Suddenly, Chen heard someone sobbing outside his room.

"The heck is all this about, this early in the morning?" Chen was confused.

He opened up the door after he dressed up.

He saw a woman with untidy clothes knelt in front of the door beside his room, weeping.

"Sir… Please help me to catch that son of the b*tch! Last night, he knocked me out with roofie and brought me to his room. Also, he took away my virginity!" The woman was weeping and pointing at the hallway.

"What the hell! I will catch him, you have my word!"

Chen's mind was on a different levelright now. He was full of confidence.

"Maybe it's still impossible to maintain the peace of three realms. Let me start with bringing that guy to justice."

"Son of a b*tch! Stand right there! Don't move!"

Chen took huge steps, rushing at the rapist. The guy at the end of the hall was getting ready to escape when he heard Chen's voice. He was quite a sprinter himself. Running was his thing. He tried his best to run away from Chen but Chen could still manage to catch up to him.

"Where do you think you are going?'

Chen extended his hand to grab the guy's shirt. Unexpectedly, he ended up lifting the man off his feet. With one arm. It was as easy as lifting up a chicken.

"Uh…"

The rapist was stunned. He weighed at least one hundred and thirty pounds. The fact that Chen could lift up him up with one hand was unbelievable. This was a monstrous strength.

"My man! I ain't got no beef with you! Just leave me alone! I'm begging you…" the rapist said anxiously.

"Don't beg me. You can beg the police later." Chen shrugged and prepared to capture him.

"My man! I have money! I can pay you! Just name your price!" the rapist put his hand into his pocket.

"Hehe… Money is a good thing but it can't buy my dignity," Chen smiled.

"Motherf*cker! How naively stupid are you to not accept money?!"

Suddenly, the rapist's gaze turned cold. He took out a small knife from his pocket and stabbed Chen right in the chest. Chen was not able to react to the sudden attack. Also, the gap was basically non-existent. He could not dodge it. He actually wanted to stab Chen hard and fast, since he was quite strong himself. If it was any other person, the force of the stab would have definitely been able to pierce the person's heart. Too bad, his opponent was Chen.

"Asshole! You are the one that rejected my good offer!" Chen's eyes were filled with anger.

His left hand moved at lightning speed and was took hold of the offending hand.

Crack*

The rapist's hand was broken, and the loud crunch echoed through the hallway.

"Argh! Ahhh!"

The pain was too intense for him to bear. He was writhed on the ground in agony. His face had turned pale and his body was trembling. The way he looked at Chen was like he was looking at a monster. Fear quickly filled up quick. Funnily enough, Chen was just as shocked as him. He said casually, "The power that I acquired from my training was rather scary. I think I just accidentally broke someone's hand."

"Huh…?"

"Accidentally…?"

The rapist was really puzzled when he heard the thing that Chen just told him.

"The power of your strength is too scary! How can you say that it's an accident? My hand is not made of paper! It's not that easy to break my hand! Human bones aren't glass, you know?!" He complained inside his heart. He was too scared to say anything to Chen. Also, he knew if he went against Chen again, he might not even survive the next clash.

"Hehehe... The effort that I put in my training is really showing me results now! I transformed from a small gun to big gun! From a poor farmer to Superman! This is so exciting!"

Chen was even more determined to train harder now. After that, Chen carried the rapist like a dead dog back to where the woman was. The victim called the police. When the police came and put a cuff on the rapist's hand, two messages popped up.

Ding!

[Successfully taken down a bad guy. Triple Realms Merit point 101]

Ding! historical

[Congratulation! You have leveled up and are now a good person. Your current Triple Realm Merit point is 100. You still need another 900 points to go to the next level.]

"What the hell! I can't believe this is how the point system works!" Chen said in shock.

"I earned a point when I saved a person last time. But, how is it possible to earn 101 points by catching a rapist? Also, what is the benefit of becoming a good person?" Chen asked curiously.

Ding!

[Good person, Charm 10, Luck 10]

Ding!

[Charm allows you to earn others' trust and interest towards you]

Ding!

[Luck allows you to go through everything smoothly and reduce the chances of bad stuff happening to you.]

"Damn! This level system is so exciting!"

"My charm allows me to become a guy who will sway ladies off their feet! Besides that, my luck can make sure that the road ahead of me is going to be smooth like butter. This is definitely good karma! I'm going to do more good deeds in the future!" Chen rambled to himself.

"Sir. Good day." A female policed officer walked towards Chen.

"Hey. How are you? Anything?" Chen replied politely.

The female office blushed when her eyes looked directly into Chen's eyes. Firstly, Chen was quite a good-looking young man. Secondly, she felt that Chen had some kind of magnetic power that made her fix her eyes on Chen.

"Officer? Are you alright?" Chen asked in a leveled tone. He could clearly see the effects of his charm and was elated.

This was the effect of ten points of charm. Could you imagine what would happen to Chen if he added a few more levels? All the girls would fall in love with him instantly.

"When that time comes, ladies like ice-cold goddesses, adorable Lolis, seductive MILFs, wild-cat like girls will not be able to withstand my magical charm. This is going to be exciting." Chen thought.

Cough*

The officer coughed in embarrassment and said, "Actually, the rapist that you captured today was a wanted criminal. According to the police station's policy, you may collect ten thousand Yuan from us."

"Wanted criminal? Has he done a lot of bad things?" Chen asked.

"Yes! He's a guy that done a lot of bad things. Other than raping women, he murdered a few people as well! We are truly grateful that you helped us to capture this wanted criminal." The officer looked really serious. It was pretty obvious that she hated rapists.

"Now I know the reason of earning so many points in one good deed." Chen nodded.

He also thought that he should head to the police station to check up on all the wanted criminals and capture. This should be able to increase his level faster.

"Sir. What are you talking about?" The officer asked curiously.

"Oh... Nothing. You said that there's a reward? Can you bring me to it?" Chen smiled and said.

"Today is a day filled with many different kinds of excitement. Other than my training up to a new level, my level increased, I brought down a criminal, I even received a bounty reward. This is what I call life!"

After Chen had settled everything, he took out his cellphone. Almost everyone in the Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms sent him friend requests last night. Most of the members of Red Envelope Group accepted his friend request when Chen checked on it again. They seemed really quiet. None of them dared to disturb Chen.

"This should be the work of my master. If not, I would have been bothered by them to death." Chen smiled and laughed up his sleeve. It felt so good to have a kick-ass Master. Also, this Master actually came with the Red Envelope that he had snatched earlier. Chen was drowning in joy.

"Right! I received a packet of dog food from the Xiao Tianquan. I wonder what does it do." Chen opened up his treasure chest.

[Xiao Tianquan's food is extremely nutritious. It can be used to help with your pet's growth. Also, the loyalty of your pet will stay at 100%! Do you wish to withdraw it?]

Report chapter Comments

"Seems good but I don't plan on owning a pet anytime soon." Chen shrugged his shoulder.

"If this dog food can make a pet stay loyal to you by 100%. What will happen if I use it on a human? If that's possible, I don't mind having a few followers with dog-like loyalty." Chen thought whimsically.

Chen started to think about the money that she owed Lan. For now, he had six million inside his bank account. It was not an easy task to save up thirty-five million to pay Lan. Besides that, Chen needed another five million to furnish the house. It was not a small number. After some rough calculations, Chen would need to earn another forty million before his parents can move into the bungalow.

"I still have three golden jade hairpins. I should ask Uncle Qin if I could sell them out for at least ten million. What should I do to gather the rest of the money?

Chen was getting a headache when he thought about this. Another method was that he could go to Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms group to acquire more antiques. But, it would attract unwanted attention if he sold too many antiques. He had to think of another way to solve this problem.

A familiar person appeared on the path that Chen was walking on.

"Ms. Lin, are you ok?" Chen quickly rushed to her.

"I'm okay. I twisted my ankle…" Lin squatted down and pressed on her ankle anxiously.

She wore a dove white dress today. It made her look really graceful and elegant. Chen walked toward her. He then accidentally saw an eye-catching milky white "Mariana Trench" from her neckband. Lin's body was too hot for Chen to handle. His eyeballs almost fell inside her shirt.

"Bastard! Where are you looking at?!"

Lin quickly covered up her neckband and said angrily, "Which class are you from? I want to look for your class counselor! I am going to make sure you get a good scolding from your class counselor."

Chen was shocked and amused at the same time after hearing what she said to him.

"Ms. Lin. You are so funny. I'm Chen!"

"You... You are Chen?"

Lin Xiang was completely in shock.

His voice and his attire were definitely belonged him. However, she felt that Chen's face had gone through a major transformation. The poor farmer had transformed into a super handsome young man. She found it hard to accept the fact that Chen looked like a completely different person. historical

"Haha, Do I look more handsome than before?" Chen laughed.

"Erm..." Lin was in a trance state. Chen's invisible charm had created some kind of magnetic force to capture Lin's attention.

"Weird! Could it be that I'm possessed by something? Don't utter nonsense. I'm still your teacher." Lin quickly shook her head.

"Fine. I will cut the crap. Let me take a look at your feet." Chen squatted down and got ready to check on it.

"What are you looking at?! Don't you dare take advantage of me." Lin frowned. It was pretty obvious that her self-defense mechanism was pretty strong.

"If I were to take advantage of you, I would have done when I stayed overnight at your place. Why would I wait until now?" Chen curled his lips.

"This…" Lin stiffened and she had nothing to counter Chen.

It was the truth. It wouldn't be hard at all for Chen to take advantage of her on the night Chen stayed over. But, Chen did not do it. It actually proved that Chen still had dignity in him. Before Lin could react to him, Chen lifted up her leg and took off her high heel. A fair thigh with jade-like skin landed in Chen's hand. Chen noticed that her ankle was swollen.

"Let go of me. I just need some rest. Ouch…" Lin's slim and silken leg had never been touched by any other man.

She wanted to retract her leg but it was too painful to do that. Her heart was in turmoil.

"You have hurt your muscle and bone. Stop moving if you don't want to be strapped up at the hospital." Chen took out a bottle of Potion of Hundred Herbs and poured a few drops on his hand. Then he started to massage her feet. Lin still tried to fight against it.

Suddenly, the pain from her ankle disappeared. The pain was replaced by extreme comfort that words couldn't describe. It was tingling. It was tickling, yet it was so mesmerizing, so addictive.

"Ah…" Lin's natural instinct made her moan. There was a sense of maturity in her voice. In addition to that, her moan was further enhanced by the huskiness of her voice. That moan alone was powerful enough to trigger Chen's nature. Her cheeks turned warm and red once she realized she had just moaned suggestively. She never expected herself to moan in front of a student. This was so embarrassing for her that she couldn't wait to hide inside a deep hole. Chen wrestled his mind out of the gutter. It would be very embarrassing if his "gun" fired.

"It should be fine now. You can try to walk around."

Chen let go of her foot a few minutes later.

"Oh…" Suddenly, Lin felt as if she had lost something important, something meaningful, as his touch left her.

After some stretching, Lin's face was filled with joy, "I don't feel pain anymore! Chen, you are really good at this!"

"Now you know that I'm not that kind of guy who will take advantage of you." Chen smiled.

"Erm… I shouldn't have blamed you unjustly. Thank you so much!" Lin lowered down her head, filled with shyness. She looked so innocent and adorable.

"You are most welcome! You helped me a lot last time." Chen said seriously.

He was forever grateful towards Lin.

"Oh right! Have you settled your family matter?" Chen asked with concern.

"Yea. It's solved…" Lin nodded evasively.

"I would like to make a move first if there's nothing else."

"Eh…?"

Chen frowned because he felt something wrong. Based on her current circumstance, it was not possible for Lin to pay off the three hundred thousand Yuan in such a short time.

Chen did his prediction and quickly warned Lin, "Ms. Lin, do not go to the north tomorrow night. It's dangerous."

"Erm… Okay…" Lin was quite confused. She nodded and left quickly. Also, she did not pay attention to what Chen told her.

"It's okay if she doesn't want to listen to me. I will go with her tomorrow to make things clear." Chen did not stop Lin from leaving, because he had the whole thing planned out in his mind.

After that, Chen went back to his dorm. The three of his roommates gathered around him the second he entered the room.

"What the f*ck? Third brother, did you travel to another country to do cosmetic surgery on your face? Even I failed to recognize you!" Zhou's eyeballs almost fell on the ground.

"Third brother, you look really good. I bet the cosmetic surgery must have been very expensive!" Li said weakly.

"Third brother! Introduce the surgeon to me! I want to make myself look like Tom Cruise! Money is not a problem!" Rich man Zhang took out his credit card immediately.

Chen was laughing up his sleeves and said with his curled lips, "I did not go for any cosmetic surgery! I always looked this handsome!"

"Third brother! You can be a superstar now with that level of acting!"

"Your face definitely became "thicker" after the surgery."

"Everyone, gather around and take a look at this handsome man!"

"...…"

Time flew when Chen fooled around with three of his roommates. The whole night passed without them realizing it. Chen received Uncle Qin's call the next morning.

Report chapter Comments

When Chen rushed to the school gate, Uncle Qin was waited in a black Rolls Royce. Surprisingly, Lan was in the car as well. She wore a long and fitting dress today. Her voluptuous body was shown perfectly in her tight dress. Her kohl-black hair was like a waterfall flowing down her shoulders. It made her looked extra graceful and elegant. There were a pair of fair and slim legs beneath the dress. Her jade-like skin was so glossy. It was extremely seductive.

"Lan, why are you here?" Chen was really surprised.

"Why can't I come?" Lan was pouting playfully.

"Yes! Of course, you can tag along! I miss you so much! It was as if I had not seen you for three years." Chen put on a wide smile.

"You are sweet talking me again!" Lan gave Chen a gaze. However, Lan was the one who felt shocked.

"You… You are Chen?"

"Yes. It's me!"

Chen smiled and said, "In order not to embarrass you in the upcoming birthday party, I underwent a cosmetic surgery especially for you. How is it? Do you think it's okay?"

"This… You went too far! I feel like your skin is better than my skin now.!" Lan stared at Chen with her big and dreamy eyes. She could not believe her eyes.

"Please don't stare at me the way you are staring me right now. I'm afraid that you will fall in love with me." Chen put on an evil laugh. He tried to divert the topic. Regarding on how his look became better, he had to keep it a secret. He could not afford others to discover the truth behind it.

"Bah! Stop being so narcissistic!" Lan curled her lips and moved her stare away from Chen.

"Sit tight. I'm going to drive now."

At the front seat, Uncle Qin was smiling happily and said, "She has never been to any antique examination meeting. This is her very first time tagging along. She can't afford to be late."

"Uncle Qin!" Lan stomped her feet and pouted playfully. The way that Uncle Qin delivered his words sounded like Lan had decided to tag along because of Chen. historical

Chen saw what Lan did for him. He was very appeased by it. He decided not to embarrass her. The car was driving towards a mountain that was located at the north. There was a luxurious villa built halfway up the mountain. The identity of the owner was very mysterious. This villa served as a place for people from the upper society who really appreciated antiques to gather together and share their thoughts. They could arrange trades if they found anything that they liked. They could even carry out a small auction inside the villa. Uncle Qin helped Chen to contact the right buyers that were interested in his golden jade hairpins. It was his wish to sell the hairpins as soon as possible. They were going to trade today.

"Elder Qin."

"Good day, Elder Qin!"

"Elder Qin…"

Everyone greeted Uncle Qin once he stepped inside the villa. From here, Chen knew that Uncle Qin was a regular customer here and his reputation was really high. Chen and Lan were shocked as they stepped into the villa. It was like a small museum with different antiques displayed inside the house. All the antiques were authentic.

Chen thought that there was something wrong with his eyes because he saw something weird surrounding the antiques. Soon, he realized every antique emitted some kind of "Qi". It was one the functions of the Eight Diagrams of Godly Prediction.

Like a person, every antique here had different "Qi". White, Green, Red, Silver, Gold, and Purple Gold represented the rarity of each antique. Most of the antiques emitted Red and Green "Qi". There was only one antique that possessed a Golden "Qi". It was a white jade signet being protected by a double layered bulletproof glass, placed in the middle of the hall.

"Uncle Qin, What's so great about that white jade signet?" Chen asked curiously. Lan straightened up her ears because she was interested in it.

"It is a king's imperial jade signet from ancient Yan country.!"

Suddenly, Uncle Qin straightened up his face and said seriously, "Remember. There's a rule here. No one is allowed to discuss the price of that white jade signet! The owner will ban those whole talk about its price from stepping into this villa again."

"Why?" Chen asked curiously.

"Idiot!"

Lan pouted playfully and said, "The white jade signet must mean a lot to the owner. Just like a real man would not allow others to talk about the price of his woman!"

"It is a good metaphor, Ms. Lan. So, that is the answer to your question." Uncle Qin nodded.

Chen nodded his head as well. He was getting more and more curious about the owner of this villa.

"Elder Qin, you are here, finally!"

A man in a suit and tie walked towards them. There was a man with golden frame glasses walking on his left side. He looked like a typical elite from the world of business. The one who walked on his right side was a seventy years old man with a pair of thick glasses on him. His hair was all white. He looked like some kind of nerdy old man who had isolated himself from the real world.

"President Ma. Don't you trust me? Why did you even bother to bring along Elder Wang?" Uncle Qin asked jokingly.

"Elder Qin, you misunderstand my intentions. Of course, I trust you with all my heart."

President Ma quickly explained, "Elder Wang heard that some antiques from the Tang dynasty would be sold today. He wanted to come here to feast his eyes."

"Haha. I was just joking. Let me introduce them."

Uncle Qin laughed and said, "This is President Ma and Mr. Wang Jianjun."

Chen and Lan were very shocked when they heard the name Wang Jianjun.

"No wonder Elder Wang look so familiar. He is the antique authenticator from the reality show."

Chen facepalmed himself lightly and realized it immediately. His antique authenticating show had a really high viewership. Also, his name carried a high reputation. He needed to be very famous for 'hikikimoris' like Chen to know about him.

Uncle Qin continued with his introductions, "This is the seller who possesses three pieces of antiques from the Tang dynasty. The one beside him is Ms. Lan from the Lan family."

When President Ma and Elder Wang heard that she was from Lan family, they quickly greeted her with passion. She was the daughter of the renowned Lan family. Also, she rarely attended any functions. The two of them felt really honored that she was here today. After that, they talked to Chen for the sake of formalities. It was pretty obvious that they treated Chen colder than they did to Lan. The truth was that the both of them looked down on him.

"Alright! Since we know each other now, let's finish off the deal. This is going to be momentous!" President Ma smiled and his eyes were filled with anticipation.

"Very well. Please, take a look at them." Chen took out the three golden jade hairpins from his bag and handed it to them.

"Please. Elder Wang, have a look first." President Ma did not dare disrespect Elder Wang.

Elder Wang took the hairpins and examined them carefully. He said surprisingly, "These are authentic! These three hairpins came from Tang dynasty! Also, they are well preserved! Such rarity!"

"That is good news!"

President Ma's face was filled with happiness after he heard Elder Wang's words. He said seriously, "Mr. Chen. Since you are introduced by Elder Qin. Let's get straight to the point. According to the market price, I will pay you ten million for the hairpins. I can transfer the money to you right now!"

"Hehe. I'm not selling it at this price." Chen shrugged his shoulders and said casually.

Report chapter Comments

What does Chen mean by not selling it? Everyone was stunned when Chen announced that he was not selling it.

"Mr. Chen. What do you mean by that? Ten million is the market price. You can consult Elder Qin if you don't believe in me." CEO Ma was getting really nervous.

"Chen, this is the market price. If you choose not to sell it today, I'm afraid that I won't be able to find any buyers who are willing to pay more to acquire your antiques." Uncle Qin nodded.

"My price is fifteen million. Take it or leave it? Chen smiled and said calmly.

"What?!" historical

CEO Ma's face turned blue and said, "You are being too damn greedy!"

"Young man! Don't get over your head! There should be a limit to your greed! The price that you offered is unreasonable!" Elder Wang said angrily.

Uncle Qin and Lan were very surprised at Chen's decision.

"Chen, come with me." Lan frowned a little and pulled Chen aside.

"What happened to you? Uncle Qin himself told you earlier that the market price for your hairpins is ten million! You were fine with it! Why are you changing your mind right now? Lan asked in a hushed tone.

"Initially, I wanted to sell ten million. But, those two guys were looking at me over the tip of their noses! I would like to teach them a lesson by selling them five million more than the market price," Chen said calmly.

"I never thought that you would be so fussy over that. But, that's five million Yuan, not five Yuan! What if CEO Ma outrightly shuts you down?" Lan was shocked, her eyes wide with surprise.

"Hehe... Have you forgotten that I'm Master Chen?"

Chen smiled and said confidently, "I can see that the desire of possessing these hairpins is burning in his eyes. He's desperate to get the deal done. I'm going to bet with you, that in three minutes, he will definitely accept my offer."

"Oh, don't be so sure of yourself! If CEO Ma shakes this deal off, there's no way anyone else will buy the hairpin from you. Don't forget that you still owe me a lot of money! If you fail to return me the money, I will make your life miserable!" Lan pouted playfully.

"If I fail to return you the money, I will pay you with my body," Chen said with a dirty smile on his face.

"You cheeky bastard. Your mind is getting dirtier!" Lan rolled her eyes at Chen. She opened her mouth to continue scolding him.

Suddenly, CEO Ma walked towards Chen and said, "Mr. Chen. May we talk about the price again?"

"No."

"CEO Ma, you are quite a reputable person in this society. Also, this is not an appropriate place to bargain. There's no point bargaining with me."

CEO Ma had no choice but to accept his offer.

"Fine! So be it! Fifteen million is the price. Give me the number of your bank account."

"Okay." Chen smiled and told his account number to him. Online transactions were really convenient. CEO Ma completed it within two minutes.

"I have received the money. These antiques belong to you right now." Chen shook his cellphone in the air. He was trying to be cool.

"Huff…" CEO Ma sighed. He did get what he wanted but had grossly overpaid for it.

That was the price of looking down on Chen.

Lan was really impressed. Her jaw almost dropped onto the ground. "Master Chen, you are really good at predicting future events. You just earned an extra five million Yuan with no effort."

"However, I still need more money to be able to fully repay you. You should really consider letting me pay with my body." Chen put on an evil smile.

"You are definitely looking for some beating." Lan held up her fist.

"Wow…"

Suddenly, there was a great stir at the front door. Everyone's attention was being attracted by it.

"F*ck! What a shitty day! I can't believe I'm seeing those two bastards everywhere I go." Chen rolled his eyes.

"They are the destined enemies of your life." Lan wanted to say something helpful but she couldn't do anything about it as well.

They were none other than Shi Mingwei and Yao Bingbing. They had come with a skinny and little man. Everyone in the hall gathered around them the moment they stepped inside the hall. It made them look like some kind of superstar.

"What happened? They're basically rolling out a red carpet for them!" Chen asked curiously.

"This must be the big thing that CEO Ma mentioned just now."

"Nobody knows how exactly does Shi Dafeng gets his hand on the masterpiece artwork; the Frosty Autumn Spring Tree. He brought it here to let everyone enjoy the artwork. It is a national treasure. That is why everyone is so excited about it." Uncle Qin explained.

"Frosty Autumn Spring Tree?"

Chen was really shocked and surprise, "Is the artwork from the famous event'; The Pursuit of Qiu Xiang by Tang Bohu?

"Yes! He painted it. I'm sure that this artwork is authentic!" Uncle Qin nodded his head and looked at the painting with excitement in his eyes.

"Nice one! It's gold! Chen stared at the painting and said. He saw the Golden "Qi" surrounding the painting. This meant that the painting was authentic and its rarity could be compared to the white jade signet that he saw earlier on.

"Ei? Here comes the poor farmer!" Shi saw Chen as well.

The hatred between Shi and Chen was so great to the point that they would be able to recognize each other even when one turned into ash. Despite Chen's transformation and his radiant, fair skin, Shi still managed to recognize him.

"Hehe... I was just wondering how a poor farmer like you would even be accepted through these doors. And then all is made clear when I see that rich ass lady beside you." Shi pointedly spoke to himself.

All of a sudden, everyone moved their attention to Lan. The phrase; rich ass lady carried multiple meanings, but it was obvious that Shi was sneering at her.

"What did you just say?' Chen was getting really angry and he gave Shi an ice-cold gaze.

"Hehe.."

"Obviously, you are her boy toy! This is the truth. Please don't run away from it. You can't deny the truth." Shi laughed.

"You can mock me or even scold me! But, I warn you, do not mock Lan! If you do that again, I will make sure you will regret being born into this world!" Chen raised his voice menacingly. His eyes were filled with burning fury.

Chen was no ingrate. Lan had helped him multiple times. He would never allow anyone to harm a hair on her head.

"Hehe... Who do you think you are? Want me to say it again? You don't like it, do you? All the more reason to say it again!"

Shi taunted Lan with an arrogant face, "If you want to have a boy toy, choose something better. This is a low-quality poor farmer. I can see that you have unique tastes!"

Upon hearing this, Chen could not hold any longer. However, Lan stepped out for both of them before Chen.

"Listen carefully, Shi! Firstly, Chen is my good friend, not a boy toy! Secondly, you are the shitty guy! I have unique taste? You're just an idiot," Lan's voice was stern but calm. Still, Shi felt as if a thousand arrows had just penetrated his heart.

All the big shots of society were around them. Shi had failed to embarrass them. On the contrary, he was embarrassed by them. He could not wait to dig a hole and hide inside it forever.

"Thirdly. I am going to give you a warning. I don't like causing any unnecessary trouble, but that doesn't mean I'm afraid of trouble! If you don't revise that tone of yours, I will have you blacklisted here as well!" Lan said in an icy-cold voice.

Uncle Qin quickly stood beside Lan after hearing her words. He was firm, steady, like a small mountain.

Lan looked like an iron lady, immense power flowing from the tips of her fingers. All she would need to do was give out an order to Uncle Qin to kick Shi out of this place. Everyone was very impressed by her rarely-seen authoritative visage. There was a saying, the quiet one always sneaks up on you. Lan rarely spoke her mind to the public. This was a jaw dropping act for everyone. Everyone in the villa knew the strength of Uncle Qin. Thus, no one dared to say another word. Chen was really curious about Uncle Qin's combat power. How was it possible for him to stun everyone with his presence? At Chen's thought, the netherspirit battlescouter took action. A line of blue words popped up.

Cultivation: Pinnacle stage of physical phase

Health: 3000

Combat power: 3000

"What the f*ck! He is so damn powerful!" Chen felt a sudden terror clutching his heart.

He knew that Uncle Qin was no ordinary person, but he did not expect him to be that powerful. There were four stages of our bodies; the early stage, middle stage, later stage, and the pinnacle stage. Chen was still in the early stage with only hundred combat power. Uncle Qin could squash him easily like an ant. Even if everyone in the villa gathered their strength to fight against him, they would probably be blown away.

"Hold on! There's one more elite here!"

The battlescouter refocused on the shorty who was slowly walked to the side of Shi and stood against Uncle Qin. He looked small and skinny, but the "Qi" around him was no lesser compared to Uncle Qin. Also, Uncle Qin was known as the Stone Buddha. His "Qi" was as firm as a mountain and as steady as a giant rock. On the other hand, the shorty's "Qi" was rather vicious. It was like a venomous snake that was ready to strike at any time; a scene that could send shivers down to one's spine.

"Uncle Jing!" Shi Mingwei greeted him respectfully.

"Master, don't your worry. I'm here to protect you. No one will dare to touch you." He said confidently, his face was filled with arrogance.

Chen was really curious towards his combat power. He did a quick check on him.

Ding!

Cultivation: Later stage of physical phase

Health: 1000

Combat power: 1000

Chen rolled his eyes and roasted him secretly, "What a retard! He is so much weaker than Uncle Qin! How dare he stand against Uncle Qin! It seems like he has a death wish!"

Just as things seemed to escalate out of control, a man walked between the two of them. He was a middle aged man who appeared to be in his forties. His eyebrows were minutely arched. He looked incredibly sharp. It was as if there were tigers and dragons walking beside him. The aura of an elite master spilled out of his body.

"Master Tian!"

"Master Tian…."

All of them suddenly bowed down and greeted him. There was fear in their eyes.

Ding!

Cultivation: Early stage of Qi refining

Health: 5000

Combat power: 5000

"What the f*ck! Who is this guy? He's even more powerful than Uncle Qin! I guess there is always someone better than you!" Chen was floored.

"Master Tian!" Uncle Qin an experienced elite in Jianghu. He put his hands together and greeted him.

"Elder Qin, you have shown me too much courtesy. I'm just a junior. I don't deserve the title master from you." Murong Tian put his hands together and said. He was very humble and acted like a true gentleman.

Mu Rongtian was so powerful yet humble. This was definitely a rare sight! Chen was getting slightly touched by his humility. He even started to like him. However, everything changed the next second. Chen realized that his judgment was wrong.

Mu turned around and gave the shorty a deathly gaze and shouted, "If you don't want to die, I suggest you to kneel down in front of Elder Qin and beg for an apology!" A powerful presence gushed out like a tsunami abruptly.

The heart of the shorty was being clenched up. He felt like a deadly beast was staring at him right now and his life would end at any moment. The fear of death quickly filled his mind. Without a single doubt, the shorty knew that Mu could easily kill him. He had to choose between pride and survival. Well, even an idiot knew the answer to this question.

POM!*

The shorty's leg turned into jelly and he crumbled to the ground. He said, "Elder Qin… I'm truly sorry! I disregarded the Jianghu's rules and caused you offense. I hope that you can forgive me."

Looking at what happened right in front of their eyes, Shi Mingwei and Shi Dafeng were truly embarrassed. They had spent a lot of money to hire this shorty to protect them. He had boasted about how powerful he was in Jianghu. But, now he was acting like a dog. The exact opposite of what he bragged about earlier on.

"That's ok." Uncle Qin had fully relaxed his body and was already walking away.

The shorty did not dare stand up. All he did was to stare at Mu.

"I don't care how you; Jing Fei, roll in other cities. When you are here in Green Vine city, you must obey the rules here. If not, I'll be the first one to kill you!" Mu's voice was still really powerful and ice-cold. The shorty was stunned for the second time.

Originally, the shorty's name was Jing Fei. He was from Yun Chuan city which was located to the southwest of Green Vince city. Also, he was a highly successful professional thief. They called him the Thief King. The reason he changed his name and laid low was that he had too much heat on him from the law. Now, he worked as a personal security guard. He never expected that his true identity would be discovered by Mu the moment he stepped into Green Vine city.

"Alright! This matter ends here."

Mu calmed himself down and said, "I came here today to feast my eyes on the Frosty Autumn Spring Tree artwork. Please do not disappoint me."

"Master Tian, rest assured, the painting that we bring here today was drawn by Tang Bohu himself!" Shi Dafeng held the scrolled up painting and smiled.

"Someone, please prepare me a long table!" Mu commanded and people started to prepare it for him immediately.

Since there was still some time before the showcase, Chen walked to Uncle Qin and asked, "Who is this Master Tian?"

"He is the owner of this villa. It's best that you leave it at that. Don't burden yourself with the secrets of powerful people." Uncle Qin said.

"Uncle Qin, please tell me, my curiosity is killing me." historical

"Alright. I'll just say this, and we'll leave it at that. He controls the Jianghu of Green Vine city." That was the last thing that Uncle Qin said. He showed no signs of speaking any further about it.

Chen understood everything when Uncle Qin mentioned Jianghu. In other words, Mu was the underground king of Green Vine city.

"Murong…" It seemed that this was the first time Lan heard about him. Her dreamy eyes were moving around. Chen wondered what she was thinking about.

"Alright. Everyone, please gather around." Shi Dafeng cleared his throat with his hand holding the painting scroll. He was standing proudly at the side of the table. Shi Mingwei and Yao Bingbing were standing behind him. They were enjoying the attention given by the public. It made them really proud. On the other hand, Jing Fei looked for a corner and stayed there. He did not dare to show himself anymore.

Finally, this was the moment that everyone was waiting for. Even non-antique lovers like Chen and Lan had their eyes wide open and anticipated the showcasing of the national treasure; the Frosty Autumn Spring Tree painting. However, Chen's stare was different than others. Others had filled their eyes with appreciation, but Chen had filled his eyes with an evil glint. It was pretty obvious that something bad would happen to the Shi family.

So, CEO Ma had to pay extra five million for looking down at Chen. He was going to make Shi and Bing to pay even more for what they did to Lan. Without a doubt, the both of them will suffer greatly. Also, Chen did mention that he was going to make Shi regret his words. The real drama was going to begin now!

"I'm sorry for the long wait. Now, let me show you the Frosty Autumn Spring tree artwork…" Shi Dafeng laughed proudly.

However, Chen interrupted him when he was about to unfurl the painting scroll.

"Boss Shi! That has got to be a replica!" Chen said loudly.

Chen's words were like a bomb that triggered everybody's nerves. All of them had come here to purposely feast their eyes on the painting. It would be a bummer if they found out that the painting was a replica. Lan and Uncle Qin were very shocked after hearing what Chen just said to the crowd. They had no idea what was Chen trying to do this time.

"Bullshit! Everyone, please don't listen to this bastard!

Shi Dafeng frowned and shouted angrily, "I spent two hundred million on this painting! I even pawned my jewelry shop to the bank! How is it possible that this painting is a replica?!"

Chen confidently said, "Let's make a bet. I'm going to lay down twenty million for this bet. I bet; that this painting, is a replica."

"Who do you think you are? You are just a boy toy. You're not even worthy of making bets with me!" Shi Dafeng said angrily.

"Am I not worthy, or have you no balls?" Chen laughed.

"What do you mean, I don't have balls?! This must be a joke! I can even put down my life as bet! Twenty million is just a small number! The question is, do you even have that kind of money?" Shi Dafeng said condescendingly.

He was one hundred and twenty percent sure that he had the authentic painting with him. Still, Chen was pulling off this stupid stunt!

"Open up your pig's eyes and look carefully!" Chen took out his cellphone, opened up his banking application and said, "My remaining balance is twenty million and nine hundred forty thousand! Do you have the balls to bet with me?"

Shi Dafeng was speechless when he saw Chen's bank account. Everybody in the hall was very shocked as well. They did not expect a poorly dressed young man to have so much money in his account. Without a doubt, most of the shock in the villa went to Bing. Wait, frightened was a better word to describe her current state.

A few days ago, she was already regretting about her breaking up with Chen when she knew that Chen had six million in his account. Looking at twenty million in his account, she felt like she wanted to commit suicide.

"Yes! Of course, I'm going to bet with you!"

Shi Dafeng calmed himself down. Greed quickly filled him up. All he could see now were dollar signs. He said, "I totally wouldn't mind receiving twenty million from you. I have no reason to reject you. Master Tian is here. You'll have to pay up, there's nowhere for you to go."

"Well, I would like to invite Master Tian as our witness." Chen put his hands together and said. His tone was neither aggressive nor conciliatory.

"No problem at all." Mu nodded. He sensed that Chen was being playful. "This young man is either an idiot or the real deal," he thought.

"Chen… What are you trying to do? You're creating a bigger mess now!" Lan looked at Chen and said nervously.

"That's right! You are being too impulsive at your quick judgement. He spent two hundred million on that painting. It's impossible that the painting is a replica." Uncle Qin was very worried about Chen as well.

"Don't worry. I know exactly what I am doing." historical

Chen smiled and said casually, "Boss Shi. Can I please have a quick examination on your painting?"

"Erm?"

Shi Dafeng hesitated briefly, and then, he handed over the painting to Chen and said, "Master Tian is here. Even you won't be doing anything under his watch."

"Relax, I'm just going to take a quick look at it. I'm not going to try anything." Chen moved his side lips upward. An evil smile could be seen.

He slowly unrolled the painting. Everyone included Mu opened their eyes wide to take a look at the beauty of the precious painting. But, everyone was stunned the next second.

Riiiip!

Without saying a word, Chen tore the painting into pieces in front of the crowd.

He even spat on it and said condescendingly, "How dare you say that this piece of garbage is the real deal!?"

Silence quickly filled the hall. The whole villa was dead silent. Not even the craziest person on this earth would expect Chen to destroy the painting. The accumulated wealth of Shi family was three hundred million. He had to use up all his liquid capital and also pawn the jewelry shop to the bank to get two hundred million to buy the painting. Technically speaking, Chen just tore two hundred million Yuan into pieces.

"S-Son of the bitch!! I'm going to kill you!! Kill you!!"

Shi Dafeng was like a wild boar that had received a jab in the butthole. He was basically charging at Chen to take his life.

"Boss Shi! Stop!"

Mu shouted, "No fights are allowed here! Those are the rules!"

"I..."

Shi Dafeng was looking ferocious. Even if he had ten guts, there was no way that he would dare to disobey Mu's command.

"Master Tian! This son of the bitch just destroyed my precious painting! You saw it yourself! You have to make sure that my justice is served." Shi Dafeng said angrily.

"Don't you worry. I will deal with this matter."

Mu nodded, turned to Chen and said in a deep voice, "You have destroyed Shi's Frosty Autumn Spring Tree painting. You need to pay for his loss."

Lan and Uncle Qin were getting really nervous when they heard what Mu just said to Chen. The loss is two hundred million. Even Lan couldn't acquire that much money in such a short time.

However, Chen was looking relaxed and he said calmly, "I tore the painting up and I'm willing to pay for the loss. But, your painting is a replica. I will pay, according to the price of a replica painting."

"F*ck you! My painting is definitely authentic!" Shi Dafeng scolded loudly.

"Boss Shi! Please let him finish his sentence!"

Mu asked politely in a deep voice, "Young man. Do you have any way to prove that the painting was a replica?"

"Of course!"

Chen nodded and said, "The real Frosty Autumn Spring Tree is with me!"

"What?! How is this possible?" A wave of shocking comments came from the people around Chen.

Lan and Uncle Qin had their eyes and mouths wide open. This mess was just getting bigger and bigger.

Mu raised his hand to calm the crowd down. He said, "Young man. If you have the real deal, why not take it out to show everyone? That would settle the matter once and for all."

"Of course! I don't have it with me right now. I have to go back to my place to get it."

"Master Tian! Don't believe his words! It is not possible for him to have the authentic one! He wants to escape!" Shi Dafeng scolded loudly.

"Don't you worry, Boss Shi. I will go with him to get the painting." Mu said in a deep voice.

"Alright! I can live with that."

Shi Dafeng put on a savage look and cursed, "Son of the bitch! If you do not possess the real deal, I will make sure you pay for my loss! Also, I will shred your skin and pull your nerves out!"

Chen only smiled wordlessly as Shi Mingwei yelled at him. He wouldn't be so relaxed if he did not have his secret weapon with him. After that, Mu looked for a driver to get the authentic painting with Chen. Inside the car, Chen played with his cellphone without showing any sense of insecurity and anxiety. This made Mu feel really surprised.

He was thinking, "This kid looks so calm. Was he telling the truth?"

Of course, Chen actually did not own the painting but he knew the artist; Tang Bohu.

Ding!

Joy filled Chen's face when his cellphone vibrated.

Tang Bohu: Good day, my God! Is there anything that I can do for you today?

This guy was the leader of the Jiangnan Four prodigies. The way he spoke was very poetic and full of intelligence. historical

Chen: Erm… Why am I suddenly a God now?

Tang: The Prime of Tongtian announced that he took you in as his apprentice. Although you are not yet a God, officially, you'll be one, soon enough.

Chen: I see. Actually, I need you to do me a favor today. Can you draw me a Frosty Autumn Spring Tree painting?

Tang: It is not necessary to draw one. If my god needs one, I can send it over right now.

Chen: You actually have a ready-made one with you? (Sweating emoji)

Tang: Sigh. I have trained in hell for thousands of years. At times, when I get bored, I will re-draw the artwork that I created when I was still alive. I have drawn the Frosty Autumn Spring Tree so many times that my storage room is full of it.

This Tang Bohu was just like Xiangyu. Both of them trained in hell for thousands of years. Yet, they were still not Gods yet. They had it pretty rough.

Ding!

[You have received Tang Bohu's Red Envelope.]

Tap!

The Red Envelope opened when Chen pressed on it. Inside the Red Envelope was a painting scroll.

Ding!

[Congratulation on snatching Tang Bohu's Red Envelope! You have received a Frosty Autumn Spring Tree painting. It has been stored in your treasure chest. Do you want to withdraw it?]

Chen saw clearly that the golden "Qi" was all around the painting scroll through the Netherspirit Battlescouter. Chen knew that this painting was definitely a real deal. Also, its rarity was impeccable. His problem should be able solved by showing this painting to others.

"The Shi family is going to cry in front of me later. Of course, I can't retrieve the painting right now because Mu is sitting right beside me," Chen thought.

He had to wait until he arrived at the dorm to withdraw it. He had to play it cool. There was great joy within him. Suddenly, Chen was shocked.

Ding!

[You have made a deal with a spirit in hell. 10 Triple Realms Merit points have been deducted from you. You have 90 points left. Your level is Ordinary People.]

"What the f*ck! I had no f*cking idea that asking for a spare painting from Tang is consider as a trade!" Chen was kind of upset.

"I get downgraded back down to "Mundane Mortal" without me noticing it! This is a pain in the ass!"

Ding!

Tang: Thank you so much for your Triple Realms Merit Points. I'm one step closer to becoming a God!" (Three surprise emojis)

Chen quickly calmed down, realizing that it was not easy to live as a spirit in hell. It was totally fine to give him ten points.

Chen: You are most welcome! (Three Gambateh emojis)

Tang: I just want to say, thank you again! You are certainly the most friendly and polite God that I ever met. (Three crying emojis)

Chen smiled when he started to imagine the face of Tang being so grateful to him. Then, he thought again, it was actually a good thing to help out the spirits in hell. This made Chen really happy.

After that, Chen brought Mu to his dorm and he acted as if he was grabbing the painting from beneath his blanket.

Mu was very puzzled and thought, "I can't believe that this kid put a national treasure under his blanket. This getting ridiculous!"

Mu wasn't easily fazed. He did not say a word to Chen, even though he found the whole thing very peculiar. Without saying a word, Mu brought Chen back to his villa.

"I'm sorry for the long wait. I'm back!" Chen entered the villa with all eyes on him.

"You son of the b*tch! You can't fool me with a replica! You are going to return me my money today!" Shi DaFeng yelled.

"Hehe…."

Chen smiled and said, "Everyone here knows an antique when they see one. Also, experts like Mr. Wang Jianjun are here to examine the painting that I brought here. He would know."

Shi Dafeng said condescendingly, "Hmph! You will know the pain when I put a coffin in front of you! Get ready to die, bitch! I already told Mr. Wang to expose your dirty trick! You lying motherf*cker!"

"Hehe… Mr. Wang, please have a look at the painting that I have brought here."

Chen opened the painting scroll and lay it flat on the table confidently. Wang adjusted his glasses and started to examine the painting carefully. At the same time, everyone around him stretched out their necks, opened their eyes wide and anticipated the final result from Wang.

"Great! This is just great!"

A second later, Wang said in a very surprised tone, "The mountain looks so lively! The water from the stream flows like silk! The height of the mountains can be distinguished clearly! The accumulated snow on the tree is quite an artistic touch! The drawing is just magical and impeccable! There are no words to describe this piece of magnificent artwork!"

Shi Dafeng started to get really nervous and asked in fear, "Mr. Wang, can you please clarify with me right now...? Is this the real deal?"

"Of course, this is the real deal!"

Wang's reply was quick and definite, "I am going to put my reputation on the line to guarantee that this is the real deal! This Frosty Autumn Spring Tree definitely came from Tang Bohu himself!"

"How… How is this even possible?"

Shi Dafeng was stunned. He felt like he had just been stuck by lightning. His mind went blank and he moved back a few steps. Finally, he fell to the ground. In the end, Mr. Wang had proved that Chen's painting was the real deal. In other words, the painting that Chen tore just now was a replica! It also meant that Shi Dafeng paid two hundred million to buy a replica. This was a huge blow to the Shi family.

"Dad! Uncle! Master!"

Shi Mingwei, Yao Bingbing, and Jing Fei quickly rushed to Shi Dafeng to help him get up on the ground.

"You son of a bitch! This must be your dirty trick! You can't get away from this! Pay us back the two hundred million!" Shi Mingwei said in extreme anger.

"Idiot!"

Chen rolled his eyes on him and said condescendingly, "You are embarrassing your family. Everyone here, including Mr. Wang and Master Tian know that my painting is the real deal."

"I..." Shi Mingwei was speechless and his face tuned red.

Mr. Wang was just an examiner but Mu was the kind of person that no one would mess with.

"The truth had been revealed, Shi Mingwei. My condolences on your family for paying two hundred million for a replica. However, this is not Mr. Chen's fault."

"If you demand to be compensated for your loss, according to the price of your replica, I think one thousand Yuan is more than enough."

"What?!! One thousand?!!" Shi Mingwei almost cried when he heard that.

Chen was ecstatic. He took a stack of cash and put it on the table.

"I'm going to give you two thousand! You are welcome!"

Shi Dafeng's heart was wracked in sudden pain. A mouthful of blood was spat on the ground. Shi Mingwei was bristling in anger. His face was totally twisted. At that very moment, the two of their faces were burning. It was like they had just taken thousands of slaps on their faces. This was their doing. They deserved it. Initially, they could showcase their very much authentic Frosty Autumn Spring Tree without any trouble, but they chose to mess with Chen. Not only that, they mocked Lan as well. Obviously, they were seeking for a death wish. Chen had to teach them a good lesson.

The two of them wanted to cannibalize Chen and drink his blood badly. However, they were not allowed to do because Mu had brought a full closure on the matter. Anger would get them nowhere. If they offended Mu. Not only they would lose more than two hundred million but also losing their lives. This was the true strength of an extremely powerful person. No one would dare to disobey him. The weaker ones had to listen to the stronger one. They had no right to change the outcome.

"Mingwei… Let's go…." There was still some blood in Shi Dafeng's mouth. His eyes were bloodshot. No, the vessels had burst and his sclera was completely red in color. He looked like a ghost from a scary movie. Undoubtedly, an ultimate hatred had been created between Chen and the Shi family. Once they stepped out of the door, everyone in the villa started to get excited again. This was a rare opportunity for them to take a closer look at the national treasure. All of them examined the painting carefully. Also, they took out their cameras and took pictures of it.

"Mr. Chen, may I ask you a question? Do you wish to sell this Frosty Autumn Spring Tree painting?" CEO Ma walked towards Chen and asked politely.

In the beginning, he looked down on Chen but now he addressed him politely in a good manner. Due to the presence of the precious painting, Chen had become more respectable in others' eyes. No one in the villa would ever look down on him.

"Do I want to sell it?"

Chen paused for a while and said, "I'm willing to sell this for the price of two hundred million Yuan. If you can pay me now, this painting will go into your possession."

In Chen's eyes, antiques were pretty useless. Money was the way of living. CEO Ma was startled when he heard the price.

"Can I pay you by monthly installments?"

"I'm afraid I can't do that. I do not like to drag. If you want it, you have to pay me in one shot." Chen shrugged his shoulders and clarified his stand.

"I don't think I'm able to purchase this painting. My total assets are worth one billion. But, most of them are capital goods. I don't think that I can get two hundred million Yuan in such a short time." CEO Ma said disappointedly.

Chen was shocked. He did not know CEO Man had one billion worth of asset. If he couldn't get his hands on two hundred million Yuan right now, no one else in this villa would be able to pull this off. Just when Chen was considered lowering the price, Mu walked towards Chen.

"Do you mind selling this painting to me?" Mu asked politely.

"Of course I don't mind! But…" Chen said in doubt.

"Money is not an issue. Just give me your bank account number. I can wire the money to you right now." Mu said casually.

"What the f*ck! This is a real billionaire! No! He should be a Super Billionaire! I can't believe he is able to transfer two hundred million to me on the spot. Compared to CEO Ma, Mu might have hundreds of billion with him! This is so damn cool!" Chen thought. He quickly gave him his bank account number.

Within five minutes, two hundred million had been wired to Chen's bank account. Looking at a line long figures in his account, he felt like he was dreaming. His joy escalated to space instantly. After receiving the money and handing over the painting to Mu. Chen, Lan, and Uncle Qin left the villa.

"Chen, I can never fathom the extent of things that you can pull off. You know how to predict the future, you get hold of different antiques easily. Are you a tomb raider?" Lan bombarded him with questions once they were in the car.

"Hehe… You are a smart girl!"

"That's right! I'm the legendary male version of the Tomb Raider! My lady, are you interested in learning some of the tomb digging techniques from me?" Chen laughed evilly.

"Quit talking nonsense!" Lan pouted playfully and rolled her eyes.

"Alright. I should quit talking nonsense. Can I have your account number? I will wire the money to you right now." Chen said seriously.

"Alright."

Lan was really a smart and considerate girl. She knew that Chen did not want to talk about the antique incident anymore, so, she stopped asking about it. Chen quickly finished the transaction process. He was cracking his head about what he should do about the money that he owed Lan. He never thought that he could fully return the money to Lan today. Also, he still had one hundred and nine million in his bank account. That money was more than enough to buy his whole village. Thinking of this, Chen actually wanted to travel back to his village as soon as possible.

His parents had worked hard to support his studies in the big city. He needed to go back to make them proud. He decided to hire someone to work on the house's interior design. He would invite his parents to come over to stay with him once the makeover is done. Chen couldn't wait for it to happen.

Lan had classes to attend once they reached the university. Chen also had a mission to accomplish. He quickly ran to the university office and waited outside. Yesterday, he had predicted that Lin would face some kind of danger tonight. So, he purposely waited for her to come out from the office. He decided that he was going to follow Lin tonight to help her out. He wanted to find out what was happening to her.

"Which class are you from? Why are you snooping about here?!" A fifty-year-old, plump man walked toward Chen and stared at him.

"Hello, Vice Headmaster Wong. I was just passing by," Chen simply made something up. His eyes were filled with hatred.

This fat man was the vice headmaster of Green Vine University; Wong Jianren. He was only fifty but he was already bald. His teeth were crooked and yellowish. No words could describe his ugliness. Other than that, he was also a randy old goat. He had always set some kind of underground rule to have sex with some of the female teachers. He even slept with a few students from the art stream. The most disgusting thing was that he would always use security issues as an excuse to barge into the female shower room. Chen was not the only one who hated him. Most of the students in this university were disgusted by him.

Chen quickly walked away from him. He was going to vomit if he spent one more moment with him. However, Chen did not walk too far from the office. He found a hidden corner to continue his surveillance. A few minutes later, Chen saw something that shocked him to death. The bastard Wong brought a female teacher out of the office. She was none other than Lin Xiang. Chen quickly followed them. He couldn't let this happen to Lin.

Wong drove to the Shangri-la hotel. That was a five-star hotel. It was a place for dining, entertainment, and staying the night as well. There was nothing wrong with dining here. Also, it would be more convenient to book a room right after dining to have sex. It was easy to guess Wong's mind. A skinny hand tapped Chen's shoulder when Chen wanted to get down from the cab to follow them.

Why are you here?"

Chen saw a skinny man when he traced the hand back to its owner. The man's stare was ice cold. He looked like a snake that had just came out from its nest. This man was none other than Jing Fei.

"Cut the shit! You have been sentenced to death by Boss Shi! I will bring back your head to Boss Shi if you refuse to hand over the Frosty Autumn Spring Tree painting." Jing Fei said in an icy-cold tone.

"Shi Dafeng has no idea what he has just done to me! Apparently, he has a death wish! How dare he order you to kill me?!" Chen said angrily.

"Erm?"

Jing Fei was stunned by Chen's unexpected reaction. He thought Chen was just another boy toy who would beg for his life at this critical situation. However, Chen acted completely differently. He was not afraid of him. On the contrary, Chen dominated him with his powerful presence.

"Son of the bitch! Acting cool before your death? Do you think that I, the Thief King of Yun Chuan is a piece of weakling?" Jing Fei tried to scare Chen with his title.

"Thief King of Yun Chuan? You are even weaker than a piece of meat! What kind of King are you? Wait, don't tell me. King of meatloaves, maybe!" Chen said condescendingly.

"Motherf*cker! It seems like I'll have to beat the f*ck out of you before anything else!" Jing frowned. Then, he proceeded to try slapping Chen.

Jing Fei's cultivation was in later stage of physical phase. Also, his combat power was one thousand. Chen's cultivation was still at an early stage of physical phase. His combat power was only a hundred. There was a huge gap of power difference between the two of them. Technically speaking, it was impossible for Chen to fight against Jing Fei. But, Chen always had his trump card with him. This was why he was not afraid of Jing Fei. The moment that aura had burst out, he had already activated it.

"The strength of Xiangyu! Come to me!" Chen shouted in his heart.

The Netherspirit Battlescouter started to work. Xiangyu's strength filled Chen's body instantly.

Ding!

[Combat power: 5000]

"Eh?"

Jing Fei's slap was closing in on Chen's face. However, his palm stopped in the middle of the air. It stopped moving completely.

"How is this even possible?" Jing Fei's was in complete shock.

Chen's hands were like a metal clamp wrapping around Jing Fei's hand. No matter how hard Jing Fei tried to loosen up his hand from Chen, it wouldn't budge.

"Ouch! Ouch!"

Chen squeezed, hard, and Jing Fei Started to squeal like a pig. The strength of Xiangyu was extremely powerful. Chen could crush Jing Fei's hand anytime he wants.

"Please stop! I beg you! Mr Chen… Master Chen! Spare my life!" Jing Fei's face turned red and he started to perspire. The excruciating pain destroyed his state of mind completely.

He knew clearly that it was impossible to fight against Chen. Other than begging for his life, there was nothing else that he can do.

"You came here to take my life! Why should I spare your life?" Chen growled menacingly.

"I'm willing to become your slave! Also, I can be your loyal dog as well!" Jing Fei was scared to death. He even threw away his dignity.

"A loyal dog? That sounds like a good idea!"

Chen started to focus and observe Jing Fei's face. Through the Eight Diagram "Qi" observation skill, Chen saw that Jing Fei reeked of treachery. He definitely could not be trusted. However, Chen had another plan. He took out his cellphone, clicked on his treasure chest and withdrew the heavenly dog food that had he received earlier. A ray of strong light burst out from his cellphone and further terrified Jing Fei. Chen opened the bag. He saw three pieces of bone shaped dog food inside the bag.

"Only three? The Xiao Tianquan is too damn stingy….That's alright! Let's try the magical effect of this dog food first. If it does not help to increase the loyalty of a person, it's pointless to possess so many of it."

Chen took out a piece of dog food and said, "You have seen my secret! If you do not wish to die, eat this now!"

"Ah?"

Jing Fei was confused after hearing what Chen just asked him to do. It was totally understandable for someone to take revenge by punching the person. But, taking revenge by asking someone to eat dog food did not make sense at all.

"Are you going to eat it?!" Chen shouted at Jing Fei.

"Eat! I will eat it now!" Jing Fei quickly nodded his head. His life was in Chen's hand. Even if Chen asked him to eat dog shit, he would have to eat it as well.

"Wow, this is actually pretty good…"

Jing Fei was stunned, and he kept on chewing and chewing the dog food that he had just put into his mouth. It looked like he was enjoying it, so much so that he wanted to ask for seconds. No matter what, it was still heavenly food, dog food or not.

"Eh?"

Something weird happened the next second. Jing Fei's pupils dilated and his mind went blank. The way he stared at Chen was as if he just lost his soul.

"Master… Are you my master?" Jing Fei slowly opened up his mouth and talked. His voice was monotonous. He sounded like a robot.

"What the f*ck?! The effect of this dog food is insane!"

Chen got really excited and he quickly nodded, "Yes! I'm your master! From today onwards, you will be my follower!"

"Yes! My master!" Jing Fei nodded his head mechanically.

A few seconds later, his pupils returned to normal and he definitely looked livelier. His eyes were filled with great reverence towards Chen. It definitely looked as if he had become Chen's number one worshipper. He was basically treating Chen as his almighty God.

"What the hell? He's completely loyal now! This is so crazy!" Looking through the Eight Diagrams "Qi" observation skill, Chen was getting even more excited.

"After so long, I finally figured out that this heavenly dog food is the best item that I have ever received! If I let Mu consume this dog food, I will become the king of kings of Green Vine City. He would be a puppet underground king!" Chen got really thrilled.

After some thought, Chen shook his head and said, "Murong Tian is a decent man. I can't just control him with dog food. I should reserve it for my future enemies. Hehehe…"

Ding!

[You just borrowed strength from a ghost. Triple Realms Merit point: -3, left 87 points, level : Mundane Mortal.]

"Sigh… My points were deducted again. I can't go on like this! I need to find a way to regain them!" Chen sighed.

This was not the time. He needed to follow up with Lin's incident.

"Jing Fei, let's go in. We are going to split up and follow the woman that I followed just now!" Chen ordered Jing. Then they proceeded by entering the hotel.

This hotel was extremely big. They still could not locate Lin after half an hour.

"Shit! This is bad! Where do I find Lin in this huge hotel?" Chen got really anxious. He wouldn't be so anxious if it was another man who took Lin. But, the man that took Lin away was Wong Jianren; the randy old goat. If Chen failed to locate Lin in time, nasty things were going to happen to Lin.

"Master! I have an idea." Jing Fei spoke softly.

"What? Speak now!" Chen asked impatiently.

"Don't you remember that I'm the king of thieves? Come with me!" Jing Fei smiled mysteriously and moved forward. Chen quickly followed him. Jing Fei's title wasn't for nothing. He truly had skills worthy of being the king of thieves. As they had been looking for Lin, he had already figured out the layout of this hotel.

Soon enough, Jing Fei led Chen to a very important place; the surveillance room! historical

Chen understood immediately. However, he said worryingly, "This is an important place. There's no way we can enter it without permission."

"We don't need their permission." Jing Fei smiled and he took a steel wire from out of nowhere.

Kacha!*

The door of the surveillance room clicked open.

Pilipala!*

Jing Fei sat in front of the computer and his fingers moved across the keyboard at lightning speed. He was controlling more than ten monitors.

"Man! This is insane!"

Chen was really impressed by Jing Fei. He had so many different types of talents. It was totally worth keeping him as Chen's loyal lap dog. Initially, there were two security guards in the surveillance room, but both of them were knocked out and tossed aside by Jing Fei in a series of fluid actions that would have made Jacky Chan proud.

"Master! I found it!" Jing Fei smacked the keyboard and a picture showed up. He saw Lin Xiang and Wong Jianren entering one of the rooms on the twentieth floor. A food cart came right after they entered the room.

"Zoom in on the number of the room! We are going in!" Chen ordered Jing anxiously.

"Yes!" Jing Fei obeyed Chen's order immediately.

After some thought. Jing Fei had to speak up, "Master! I think I should say something about the current situation. That woman volunteered to have sex with that man. Don't you think we are being busybodies if we get involved in this incident?"

"Cut the crap! I know Ms. Lin the best! She is an innocent girl! She must be backed up against the wall! I must rescue her!" Chen's words were quick and definite.

Then again, it was still early. Also, Wong just ordered a meal. He would not do anything to Lin at the moment.

"Jing Fei, I'm going out for a while. Keep an eye on him!" Chen said angrily and left the room afterwards. He was determined to rescue Lan today and teach Wong, that randy old goat, a valuable lesson.

Inside the 2066 room.

"Pretty lady. Come and taste the wine. I purposely ordered it from the hotel just for you." Wong held the glass in his hand and swirled it with the intention to look cool in front of Lin. The red liquid in the glass was filled with an evil aura.

"I'm not good at drinking alcohol." Lin had her head bowed down. Her face looked pale and her front row of teeth bit down on her lower lip. She looked extremely unsettled.

"Don't be nervous. Everyone has their first time. You should take in some alcohol to reduce your anxiety." Wong smiled disgustingly and said. Then, he handed over a glass of wine to Lin.

"I really am not an alcohol person…" Lin pushed the glass unconsciously and the wine spilled onto Wong.

"What the actual f*ck?!"

Wong's face turned black and he said angrily, "Please do not pretend to be an innocent girl in front of me! This is not the f*cking time! Don't you dare forget what you said to me when you borrowed money from me."

"I… I regret my decision now… Please let me go… And, for the money… I will return it to you slowly…" Lin's lower lips were almost bleeding due to her biting force. Her eyes were filled with torment.

"Hmph!!! Are you treating me like an idiot?! You borrowed three hundred thousand from me! When can you fully return such huge amount of money to me?"

"I did warn you. If you fail to pleasure me tonight, I will go to the police tomorrow and tell them about how you cheated me of my money. When that time comes, I will kick you out from the school personally and force you to return the money to me!"

"This..." Lin's face became paler after hearing Wong's words. Judging from her current living conditions, if she lost her job right now, her life will be turned into a complete mess.

"Mr. Wong, please don't do this to me. I borrowed the money from you to save my brother's life. Can't you see this as an act of kindness? Have mercy on me, please!" Lin's eyes turned red and tearful. Her body was shaking. These were the signs that she was going to break down real soon.

"Cut the bullshit! You took my money. And now, you turn into an ungrateful bitch! I will not allow this happen on my watch!"

Wong leaned towards Lin and said, "Have sex with me, right now, if you don't want to lose your job!"

Lin was shocked. She quickly stepped back and said, "Mr. Wong… Please, give me more time to consider it."

"Hmph!! Just do whatever you want!

Wong pursed his lips and said with no fear, "The proof of you borrowing money from me is in my hand. You can take all the time in this world to consider this."

Lin did not respond to Wong. She rushed into the bathroom and washed her face with cold water. There was a saying; hell and heaven were only within a flash of thought. It would be hell for her no matter what she chose. After Chen exited the hotel, he quickly rushed to a narrow and dark back alley. There were a lot of massage centers and saloon at the back alley. A warm neon pink light caught Chen's attention. It looked like something fishy was going on in the shop. Then, Chen walked into the saloon. There were few women with cigarettes in their mouths, shaking their legs and waiting for business inside the saloon. Their eyes lighted up when they saw Chen entered the shop. They couldn't believe that such a handsome young man would visit their brothel. It all looked a wild dream to them.

"Who is the boss?" Chen asked condescendingly.

"I am the boss! Is there anything that we can do for you, handsome man?" A middle-aged lady stood up and said. Her face was caked with foundation. Also, her lips were the shape of thick sausages moving along with her mouth. It looked as if she was ready to eat Chen up.

"This is a brothel. Am I right?" Chen frowned a little and went straight to the pint.

"You… What are you talking about? This is a real saloon." The plump lady feigned ignorance.

Chen took out a stack of cash without a second thought and said, "Is. This. A. Brothel?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!"

The plump lady nodded. She looked like a chicken pecking on the ground. The other women reacted the same. That stack of cash was more than enough to support them for half a month.

"Who has sexually transmitted disease?" Chen asked.

"Huh?"

The lady boss was shocked and said, "Don't you worry. All of us here have constant checkups with doctor. We do not have any STD."

"I want someone with STD!" Chen cut in.

"This…"

All the women were very puzzled. This young man had some serious fetish.

"Er… I will get straight to the point, since you have such weird fetishes."

The plump lady smiled shamelessly and said, "Actually, we have not done any checkups with any doctors. Me, Ru Hua, Fu Rong, and Ah Ju are contracted with different kind of STDs. Which one would you like?"

"All four of you. Come with me!" Chen took out more cash and put it on the table.

"Woah!! You are so damn generous!"

The plump lady patted her chest and said excitedly, "I'm not going to boast about anything! Because of your generosity, the four golden flowers will come with all the skills that we possess to make sure that you stay at the height of pleasure for the entire time!"

The third woman stood up after Chen had finished talking. The first woman's face was darker than Zhang Fei's. The second woman's boobs were so saggy that they actually laid on her tummy. The third one looked retarded. She was sucking on her finger after using it to pick her nose.

"Ewwww." historical

Chen's asshole tightened up. He said, "I'm not the fortunate one. The mission for all four of you is to pleasure my boss! I can even give you more money if my boss is satisfied with your service."

"Don't you worry! We will make sure that your boss will blow up so many times that he forgets his own name!" The four golden flowers were very excited. They were more than ready to serve Wong.

At the Shangri-la hotel, in front of room 2066, the door slid opened silently. Even digital locks couldn't stop them.

"Please march in, four-golden flowers." Chen led them into the room.

"Who is that?"

Wong was lying down on the bed. He quickly stood up when he heard someone talking.

"Don't be anxious, Mr Wong. I have brought the beauties that you asked for earlier!"

Chen put on an evil smile and said to the plump lady, "Sister! That is my boss! He has some fetishes that are really difficult to fulfill. He loves violent women. Please, make it as violent as possible."

"Understood! You mean SM! We know how to do that!" The plump lady raised an eyebrow and the other three golden flowers started to knead their fists. They quickly surrounded Wong.

"Who are you people? I warn you, don't come near me! Stop fooling around!" Wong was so startled that he retreated to the corner of the room. His face was full of fear.

"Hehe… He's already getting into the role. He really fancies this. Let's go, my sisters!" The plump lady gave the order by lifting up her hand.

The four golden flowers charged at Wong and he was pushed down on the floor. They started to rip open his shirt.

"What the hell are you guys doing? Stop messing around! I'm going to call the police!" Wong felt as if he was being crushed by a bunch of ugly ghosts. He shrieked in agony.

Piak!*

Piak!*

The plump lady lifted up her hand and gave Wong two tight slaps.

"How dare you slapped me?!" Wong started to feel dizzy, due to the two strong slaps that landed on his face just now.

"How can I pleasure you if I don't hit you?" The plump lady lifted up a fist and started to punch Wong in the face. Wong's face was quickly swollen. At the same time, his clothes were completely ripped off by the three golden flowers. The dark-faced lady straddled Wong and started her indescribable love action. Ru Hua and Ah Ju took out their candles and whips. Then, they started to "punish" Wong with all their might.

"Ah… Oh… Ouch!" Wong was being tortured to death and tears started to roll down his face. Have you ever wondered what hell looked like? Well, this was as close as it got! Chen held his gut down. It was on the verge of expelling its contents. He took out his cellphone and recorded the action in front of him. For three minutes, he stood there, silently recording in disgust.

Chen kept his phone and smiled coldly, "The four golden flowers! Please, work harder on my boss! Unleash all your skills on him. I will make sure my boss pays you extra tomorrow! I'll leave you guys to it first!"

After that, Chen ordered Jing Fei to open the bathroom door.

"Chen! Why are you here?!" Lin looked extremely awful. It was like her soul was lost in some other world. She had mixed feelings when she saw Chen appearing in front of her. She was speechless.

"Don't be afraid, you're okay now! I'll take you home! No one would dare to touch or hurt you with me around." Chen put on a warm smile, held Lin's hand and exited the room. After they left the hotel, Lin wanted to look for a place to calm herself down. Chen was afraid that she might do something crazy, so, he decided to stick with her at the moment.

"Master, you can go ahead and accompany Ms. Lin. I'm not going to become the third wheel…" Jing Fei said considerately.

"Okay. I would like you to do me a favor." Chen's stare turned cold and his words were like frostbite.

"Ms. Lin, can you wait for two minutes here?" Chen told Lin and he walked further away with Jing Fei.

"Master, are you planning to mess up Shi Dafeng?" Jing Fei was very smart. He figured out what Chen wanted him to do immediately.

Chen nodded and said in an ice-cold tone, "I will not forgive him since he ordered someone to kill me!"

"Understood! I will murder his whole family tonight!" Jing Fei's eyes were filled with bloodlust. Based on his strength, killing a human was easier than killing a chicken.

Chen stared at him and said, "Did I even ask you to murder his whole family? You are such a maniac!"

"Erm... What do you want me to do? Master?" Jing Fei bowed down his head.

"Death is too easy. I want him to experience something that is scarier than death itself. Deep inside his eyes reflected a deep darkness that no light could escape from. It was ice-cold and frozen.

"Then... What should I do?" Jing Fei gulped. He figured out that Chen was an unpredictable person. Also, he felt that Chen could be quite scary at times!

"I thought that you are the thief king?!"

Chen said in a serious tone, "I want you to rob Dafeng jewelry shop tonight! Do not leave a single item behind, in the vault!"

How….How is this even possible?" Jing Fei was shocked and said in embarrassment, "It's easy to slip inside the jewelry shop. Also, it's not hard to break in the vault as well. But…How do I move all the jewelry by myself?"

"Don't worry! I will not ask you to do something impossible like that."

Chen took out his cellphone and clicked on his treasure chest.

"Look carefully! All you need to do is click on the "receive" button. Then, you can absorb everything into my treasure chest.

"I…..Oh my God….What kind of technology is this?" Jing Fei's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

"Cut the crap! I'm going to hand over the phone to you right now! Don't disappoint me!" Chen said.

"Don't you worry, my master! With this magical cellphone in my hand, I can steal everything in the vault! Just sit tight and watch the news tomorrow!"

Jing Fei took over the cellphone. It was like he had just received a holy item. His face was full of sincerity. Then, he left in rush. historical

"Shi Dafeng, you asked for this." Chen put on his evil laugh. He had everything under his control.

Shi Dafeng had three hundred million dollars worth of assets with him. In order to purchase the Frosty Autumn Spring Tree painting, he had gathered all his liquid capital and pawned his jewelry shop to the bank as well. The only thing he had left was the jewelry. If Jing Fei succeeded in this mission, Shi family would be completely broke and they would not even have any chance to start over again. Also, Shi Dafeng would become the real poor man. Also, he will lose the ability to return the loan that he had applied for, earlier. The end result for his family, would be bankruptcy.

Chen calmed himself down and returned to Lin. He asked, "Ms Lin, where do you want to go? Let's go!"

"I want to have a drink…" Lin said depressingly.

"Okay. It's good to let everything out." Chen grabbed a cab and they headed towards the west side of the city. This side of the city is full of entertainment centers.

Chen was not familiar with this place at all. So, he went to the Fire "Grim-Reaper" Boss's bar to have a drink. The boss was very enthusiastic. He gave them free booze and the best seats in the bar as well. He truly is Chen's biggest fan.

It was the busiest time of the night. After serving Chen, the boss had to go handle his other patrons. After he left, Lin hurriedly popped the cap off her beer bottle and drank from it straight.

Cough*

Lin was not good at drinking alcohol. After two mouthfuls of booze, she started to cough non-stop.

"Drink slowly. No one is going to take that away from you," Chen smiled.

She sniffed, put the bottle down and said, "You must be thinking that I'm such a cheap b*tch. I went and have sex with Wong Jianren for money. Right?"

Editor thoughts: Entertainment district? Seriously? That's your idea of calming down a woman who almost got violated? I mean. You could go grab some beer from a nearby vending machine or something, and then go to some cliched, bench in an empty park or something, I guess.

"Don't be so hard on yourself. You only did it because you had no choice."

Chen's gave Lin a reassuring look.

"You think so?" Lin was stunned. She felt warm and fuzzy inside, and her eyes started to water.

"Silly woman, why would I have gone to rescue you if I believed that you wholeheartedly wanted it?' Chen asked softly.

Lin's delicate body trembled – Chen had just touched the softest spot in her heart.

Tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably. She spun around and hugged the crook of his arm tightly, burying her small face in his shoulders, and started to cry.

"Thank you… Thank you for believing in me…" Lin choked through her sobs.

Chen cooed into her ear while stroking her back lightly, "Go ahead and let it all out. You will feel much better. After that, vent all your problems to me. Whatever burdens you have, I will carry them with you.'

"Wh... Why… Why are you so good to me?" Lin whimpered.

"Because you deserve to be treated well," Chen said, smiling reassuringly.

Back when he was always cutting classes, working a part time job, Lin was the one who persistently urged him to not give up on his studies.

Lin was also the one who would buy him dinner and hot soup when all that he could afford to eat were plain steamed buns.

These small acts of kindness were deeply imprinted in Chen's heart, never to be forgotten in time, through all eternity.

When it came to his enemies, Chen will never be merciful – he would be brutish and unkind.

But when it came to his friends and people who he was indebted to, Chen would greatly value the relationship. He would be more than willing to help. He would definitely do his best to help his friends.

That was why he would help Lin with whatever she needed.

A few minutes later.

Lin had calmed down. She wiped away the traces of tears and slowly told her tale, "This whole thing started, because my brother owed some the loan sharks. My hands were tied. I had no choice but to borrow money from Wong Jian Ren… He knew that I did not have the means to pay him back, so he proposed that I spend the night with him…"

"Why did your brother borrow the money in the first place? From the looks of things, this is not something that took place in one night,' Chen mused.

"Gambling!"

Lin gritted her teeth, a flash of anger crossing her face. "My brother is addicted to gambling, and he sucks at it – nine out of ten, he would crash. In the past, he only gambled small amounts, and I could barely afford to pay the debts that he had on him with my salary. But recently, he became bolder and gambled larger amounts and the debts grew bigger… To protect him, I stupidly promised Wong…"

"No, you're not stupid at all. You are a great sister," said Chen, grinning from ear to ear.

"Really?"

Lin puckered her lips, her bright eyes gazing at Chen. historical

"Of course, it's true. I swear, if I'm lying to you, I'll turn into a puppy." Chen grinned.

"You are a puppy! A cute puppy!" Lin beamed, a pair mesmerizing dimples appearing on her cheeks.

Seeing this, Chen relaxed and he chuckled, "Well, since the puppy is so cute, shouldn't the owner give him a kiss?"

Chen was only playfully teasing her. He was just joking.

Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that Lin would actually have the guts to do it. She grabbed him by the arms, drew her lips close to him and pecked his cheek.

"Jesus Christ!"

His whole body trembled as if he had been tazed. The hairs on his body stood on end.

Deemed as one of the four most beautiful girls in school, Lin was living proof that goddesses did exist.

In the past, Chen could only admire her from afar.

Today! Today he was actually kissed by the goddess herself!

This fortunate occurrence caught Chen off-guard! His tiny heart was so euphoric that it could just float into space!

"More! More! The little puppy wants more!"

Chen moved on to the next phase by puckering his lips and pouncing on Lin.

"No! No! Little puppy is not allowed to take advantage of me!" Lin yelped, moving away quickly.

Her pretty face turned red, and her expression was stern, but there was sweet inkling in her heart.

In fact, that day at the school gate, when Chen had saved her from the hoodlums, she had already developed some feelings towards Chen.

What that had just happened was a chemical reaction between Chen and Lin.

But, Lin was still uncertain about a lot of things. Frankly, she was actually not brave enough to take advantage of the situation.

"Today, we have severely aggravated Wong.'

Lin composed herself and said in a serious manner, "Tomorrow, I will turn in my resignation letter. You then will tell the school that it was I who ordered you to confront Wong – that way, you won't be expelled."

"Silly girl. I was the one responsible for all of it. How can I let you take the blame?" Chen grinned. In his heart, he was moved by her words.

Lin stubbornly insisted, "You must maintain your school record! Imagine what would happen if you were kicked out of school? Have you thought about your future? What about your parents?"

"Don't worry." Chen gave a confident smile and said, "We have evidence of Wong's nightly activities – I got it on camera just now. He would definitely leave us be, or else, he'll go crashing down!"

"What's that? Let me see," Lin asked, curious.

"No, it's too graphic. Not meant for children's eyes," Chen chuckled.

"You are the child here! In fact, I am your teacher! Come on, let me see!"

"No, I really can't…"

"I want to see it!"

"I don't have my phone with me!"

"…"

After that, they hung out at the bar for a little while longer.

Chen sent Lin home and headed for school.

The night went on uneventfully.

The next day, it was as Chen had expected.

Chen attended classes as usual. Wong never showed up.

A little while later, he heard that the pervert had been abused by the four golden flowers to the extent that his mouth was left foaming, and had been rushed to the hospital. While there, he took two months of leave in one fell swoop.

He was obviously avoiding Chen.

Chen had caught Wong with his pants down, literally! Wong could only admit defeat!

Today, Chen woke up in the morning and went straight to the school gates.

Jing Fei was already there, waiting for him.

Needless to say, yesterday's operation was successful!

"Master, here. Your phone!"

Jing Fei returned the phone to Chen respectfully.

"Very good! Let me see the fruits of your labor!"

Chen grinned, while opening the treasure chest, "Good boy! There are so many things in here?!"

Inside the chest, there were up to a few thousand articles of precious jewelry.

Gold, jade, diamonds, agates, and all kinds, were abundant. What's more, every piece was well-made; everything was of the highest grade and quality.

"Yesterday night, I checked the Dafeng jewelry shop thoroughly. I managed to swipe it all into your treasure chest. The estimated market price for all the jewelry is around one hundred million!" Jing Fei explained.

"One hundred million? Awesome!" Chen's eyes shone when he heard the number.

This time, not only had he messed Shi Dafeng up, he had also filled up his own little gold vault. This is so exciting! "Very well! You did very well!"

Chen withdrew his smile and said gravely, "After this, go check. How much did he pawn his jewelry shop for?"

"You… You plan to take over the jewelry shop?" Jing Fei's eyes widened in shock.

Editor's thoughts: Erm, what happened to Lan? Oh dear, the makings of his harem. Well. Pretty sure the jewelry have their serial numbers or something. He won't be able to sell them openly without getting arrested lol.

"Of course!"

Chen smiled calmly, "I have been to Dafeng jewelry shop. It is located in the middle of the city. He's got quite a huge plot there. Besides, the interior design of the shop is very luxurious as well. This kind of shop is like a rare hidden gem. I will not miss this golden opportunity."

"Master, you are really wise! I will check on it, right now!" Jing Fei nodded his head.

"Alright! Off you go." Chen waved his hand and went back to the campus.

He went to the cafeteria to eat something. Then, he headed off to the field to work out for half an hour. When Chen went back to the dorm, the three roommates of his, who would usually be found dozing off, were instead moving around animatedly around the room.

"Third brother! Come here, third brother! Your love rival is in some kind of trouble!" Zhou quickly informed Chen.

"My love rival?" Chen was really puzzled.

"It's Shi Mingwei! His jewelry shop was robbed!" Li quickly explained.

"Mind your words please! That thing is not qualified to become my love rival." Chen laughed condescendingly.

"Stop laughing! Come here and check it out! This is some crazy and weird robbery case!" Zhang said in rush.

Chen walked over to the computer and saw different titles displayed on the website.

[Dafeng jewelry shop shrouded in mystery and mayhem! All jewelry taken! Over a hundred million lost!]

[The lock was not damaged; all ten surveillance cameras could not capture any image!]

[Thousands of jewelries disappeared into the thin air! This is the real life "Now you see me"!]

[The police have zero clues about this case. The most mysterious burglary ever!]

[The owner; Shi Dafeng vomited blood, fainted, and sent to intensive care unit!]

[Rumor has it that Shi Dafeng owes the bank hundred million. He has no way to return the money. Will face bankruptcy soon!]

...

Three of Chen's roommates were stunned when they read all those titles. It will never cross their minds that Chen was the mastermind of this mysterious heist. Chen looked calm and casual. Everything is under his control. He saw this coming.

Chen had two periods of class with Lin. Chen purposely sat at the front row. He stared at Lin whenever he could, during the class. Lin had to finish the class with her red, embarrassed face lowered.

After lunch, Jing Fei called Chen. He mentioned that he had already figured out the whole thing. But, it seemed really urgent. He had to meet Chen personally. At the same time, Shi Dafeng had just woken up in the intensive care unit of Green Vince city hospital. However, he almost passed out again when he received another piece of bad news.

"Motherf*cker!"

Shi Dafeng put on his ferocious face and scolded, "The bank assessed my jewelry shop at one hundred million Yuan! And, now the highest bid is only at eighty million? All these f*cking animals!"

"Right…"

Shi Mingwei nodded and said sadly, "I received a lot of phone calls when you were out cold. All of them tried to take advantage of the situation. None of them are willing to help us…"

"How about Elder Wang and Elder Zhang? Did you try to contact them? They are my blood bothers!" Shi Dafeng asked.

Shi Mingwei nodded, "Yes, I contacted them. Uncle Wang turned off his cellphone. Uncle Zhang picked up the call but he's only willing to offer fifty million Yuan…"

Blargghhh!

Shi Dafeng vomited another mouthful of blood when he heard the bad news. He scolded, "F*ck their mothers! F*ck their fathers! F*ck their ancestors! They were my blood brothers! I can't believe that they would treat me like a piece of shit during my hardship!"

"Uncle, don't be angry. Have a cup of warm water." Bing held a cup of warm water in her hand and walked towards Shi Dafeng.

Piak!*

Shi Dafeng slapped her hand and the cup dropped to the ground. He scolded, "You f*cking bitch! What the f*ck are you talking about?! I'm going to be broke soon! Why are you making me angry again?!"

"No… Uncle. I did not mean to make you angry…" Bing was startled.

"Why the f*ck are you calling me your uncle?! I'm not even close to you! Get the f*ck away from me!" Shi Dafeng roared.

"I…" Bing felt wronged in her heart. Her eyes started to tear up.

"Stop acting! Initially, I did not approve of my son having a relationship with you! Your f*cking face brings bad luck to our family! Since you became Shi Mingwei's girlfriend, misfortune upon misfortune has been hammering us down!"

"Mingwei, I want you to break up with her, right now!" Shi Dafeng said mercilessly.

"Uncle, are you kidding me?"

Bing was completely stunned and she said anxiously, "Mingwei! I believe that you will not break up with me, right? You told me that you love me a lot."

Shi Mingwei's face was blank.

A few moments later, he said, "I think that we should break up. Look at what happened to my family. Please return me the eight hundred thousand that I lent your father earlier on, to start off his business. I want it back, as soon as possible."

"What?"

Bing's pupils fluttered and her legs went soft. She sank to the ground and said, "My dad has already spent the money. There's nothing that I can return to you."

Shi Mingwei gave her an ice-cold stare and said condescendingly, "Use your flesh to earn money if you do not have any cash with you right now. My cousin has a number of brothels. You are actually quite pretty. I think you should be able to be one of the star girls.

"What? You... You are asking me to become a hooker?"

The void quickly filled up Bing's eyes. She never thought that Shi could be such a cruel man. But, she thought again. Earlier, she did the exact same thing to Chen. This was retribution.

Ring!*

All of a sudden, Shi Dafeng's cellphone rang.

"Hello? Lawyer Fang? What? Is someone willing to pay a hundred million to buy my shop? He can pay right away?"

Joy quickly filled Shi Dafeng. He said, "Great! I'm willing! I'm willing to sell the shop! Bring me the contract. I can sign it right now! I'll be waiting for you at the hospital."

"Dad! Is there someone who is willing to pay us one hundred million?" Shi Mingwei was getting really excited as well. historical

"Yes! That's right!"

Shi Dafeng nodded, "I can clear the debt from the bank with this one hundred million. As long as the police retrieve all the lost jewelries for us, we can definitely start all over again!"

"Great! This is so great!"

Shi Mingwei was filled with unlimited hope. He said, "If we can escape this shitty situation, I believe that good things will happen to our family soon.

Bing sat on the ground, her expression formed by a zombified mask. Her face was deathly pale. She knew clearly that she would never be able to lay her fingers on Shi's money after they start all over again. If Shi really forced her to return the eight hundred thousand Yuan, becoming a hooker would be the only way to clear off the debt. Shi's cousin; Dabiao, was the famous mafia boss on the west side of this city. He had at least a hundred followers. Bing did not dare protest any further.

A half an hour later, a man with golden frame glasses walked into the ICU. He was the lawyer that called Shi Dafeng just now.

"Boss Shi, Hello!"

Fang went straight to the point and took out the contract. He said, "This is the contract that I had written earlier. Please read. Sign it if you have no problems with it."

"Fine! Let me see…" Shi Dafeng was a smart man. He spent around ten minutes to finish reading the contract.

"I have no problems with this contract. I'm signing it right away!"

Shi Dafeng couldn't wait to finish signing the contract. Then, he asked, "Fang, may I know which boss would like to purchase my shop? I need to show him my gratitude!"

"Hold on, Boss Shi. My client will be here soon." Fang lawyer said.

"Quick! Go and make some tea, Mingwei! This person is our savior! We must thank him properly!" Shi Dafeng said excitedly.

"Save the trouble. I'm not going to drink your tea." Chen entered the room slowly.

"You son of a bitch! Who the hell allowed you to enter this room?" Shi Mingwei scolded angrily.

"Master Shi, please watch your words. Mr. Chen is my client! If you attack him with your words again, I will start pressing charges!" Fang warned him sternly.

"What?!" Shi Dafeng, Shi Mingwei, and Yao Bingbing were all so shocked when they heard lawyer Fang's claim. They never thought that Chen would be the one who is purchasing Shi Dafeng's shop. How was it possible for a low-life farmer to come up with one hundred million? This was unbelievable!

"Mr. Chen, please sign this contract. I will follow up with the rest of the matter." Fang walked towards Chen and handed the contract to him. Without a second thought, Chen signed the contract immediately. The contract was immediately placed in effect.

"Lawyer Fang, sorry for troubling you. I will transfer the one million Yuan fee to your bank account later." Chen smiled casually.

"You are most welcome. It's my pleasure to serve you. I hope we can work together again in the future!" Fang lawyer bowed in front of Chen. His attitude towards Chen was extremely polite and respectful. Chen had been introduced to Fang by Uncle Qin. Also, the fees that Chen paid to Fang lawyer were much higher than the standard marker price. Naturally, Fang lawyer would give his best services to Chen.

"Bastard! Quit being so happy! With your one hundred million, I will be able to clear my debt! When I retrieve back all my lost jewelry and start over again, I will make sure you pay for what you have done to our family!" Shi Dafeng said angrily.

He blamed Chen for what happened to him. The whole Shi family saw Chen as the mastermind behind his recent failure. They would most definitely have their revenge.

"Hehehe... I hope you will be able to retrieve your lost jewelry soon!" Chen smiled and he shook his cellphone unconsciously. All the lost jewelry was in his treasure chest. Even if Shi Dafeng dug his way to the core of the Earth, he would never be able to locate his lost jewelry.

"Chen! Help me… Help me please…" Bing crawled to Chen and hugged his leg tightly with her two arms.

"Hehe... What do you want this time?" Chen stared at her coldly. Chen had zero feeling towards this bitch.

"Please lend me eight hundred thousand Yuan… Shi Mingwei is going to make me work as a hooker… I'm still a student… My life will be destroyed if I work as a hooker… Please help me…" Bing cried and said.

"Eight hundred thousand Yuan is nothing to me. But, why should I help you?" Chen asked in an ice-cold voice.

"Chen, what I did to you was all my fault. I'm apologizing to you right now. I want to become your woman again. I don't mind becoming a mistress as well! Please! Forgive me!" Bing threw away all her dignity to borrow money from Chen.

"Get the f*ck away from me! You are not even qualified to lick my shoes!" Chen swiftly withdrew his leg and Bing fell to the ground.

"Chen! I beg you… No one else will help me…" Bing begged piteously.

"Fine! I will give you a chance!"

"I remembered telling you earlier, that someday you will kneel in front of me, full of regret over your actions," Chen said condescendingly.

"That I do, I truly do regret it all…" Without a second thought, Bing knelt on all fours, her forehead touching the ground. She sobbed, snot coming out from her nose. Actually, this was not the first time she felt extreme regret for breaking up with Chen earlier on.

However, no matter how regretful she was, Chen would never go back to her. historical

Shrrrk!*

Shrrrk!*

Shrrrk!*

Chen wrote 'eight hundred thousand' on a piece of cheque and threw it at Bing. With this, he completely cut off all ties with Bing. Just like two parallel lines that will never meet.

Finally, Chen released all his piled-up emotion and knot inside his heart. If there was any way of describing how Chen felt right now; 'Oh yes!' Chen turned around and left the room. The room was filled with stunned folks. He was too cool to be true.

Chen felt refreshed and relieved when he exited the hospital.

"Master. You look really pleased, I'm sure everything went by smoothly!" Jing Fei rushed to Chen, basking in his master's happiness.

"Well, I decided to wrap things up myself. Of course, it would go without a hitch!"

Chen smiled, "You contributed a lot in this matter as well. Say it. What do you want as a reward? I can buy you a car, or even a house! Just name it!"

"It's my job to serve you. I don't want any cars or houses. May I… May I have one more piece of the dog food that you gave me last time?" Jing Fei asked. He even gulped, a most puppy-like expression on his face.

"What the hell? Is it really that yummy? Its worth way more than any car or house!" Chen was tempted to try one himself.

But then, he thought again and shook his head, "This dog food is extremely important! I only have two of them left! I can't use them up for no reason."

"Fine…" Jing Fei looked rather disappointed.

However, his loyalty towards Chen would never go down. After a few seconds, he was back to normal again. He said, "Master, what should we do next?"

Chen thought and said, "I still have nine million in my account. Since I mentioned a house and car, let's go and buy a few luxurious cars for ourselves! Then, let's find the best interior design company to furnish my new bungalow! I can invite my parents to stay with me after I settle these two matters."

After that, they grabbed a cab.

Chen asked the cab driver with the demeanor of a filthy rich man, "Where can I buy the most luxurious cars in this town?"

The cab driver thought for a while and mentioned to them that there was a car show happening in the town. Then, he sent them over to the car show. There were the three most important things in a car show; nice cars, beautiful women, and rich men.

Jing Fei was like a maniac after he entered the car show. He kept on laying his eyes on those skimpily dressed models. Chen had spent quite some time with Lan. Thus, he had no interest towards all those ordinary girls. Chen went straight to the car that he wanted. With the thought of driving his parents to this city himself, an SUV was a must for him. After some time, he had his eyes fixed on a Bentley, Bentayga. Chen had no idea how to choose a good car. All he believed was that the more expensive the car, the better the car. The Bentley, Bentayga cost four million and nine hundred and eighty thousand Yuan. It was the most expensive SUV among all the displayed SUV.

"Salesperson! I'm buying this car!"

Chen activated his filthy rich man aura and everyone at the car show was shocked.
