#43Chapter 43: The Spirit Stone is in hand, Li Zhongtian's worries

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

After Li Zhongtian left, only Chu He and the Li family sisters remained at the scene. As for the passersby, seeing the situation, they had already run far away.

Seeing Li Qiao'er's face turn crimson and even pale, Chu He let her go.

"Sister."

The Yujie was about to step forward, but Chu He's gaze forced her back, making her stop in place and look at her sister with worry.

The other party's gaze, though calm, was fraught with danger, and she dared not act rashly.

"Cough, cough..."

Li Qiao'er gasped for air, breathing greedily. She felt as if she had just walked through the gates of hell and almost died.

Since childhood, she had never been treated so roughly.

If it were anyone else, she would have already erupted, even having murderous thoughts.

But the man in front of her was extremely powerful, an Earth Rank Martial Artist at that, and she was no match for him.

"Don't think about running. Before your grandfather returns, you can't go anywhere."

Chu He's voice sounded leisurely, not even sparing a glance at Li Qiao'er on the ground.

Hearing this, Li Qiao'er's body stiffened, and her movement to get up reversed. She looked up in astonishment at the unfathomable man in front of her.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with shock.

How did he know I wanted to run?

Indeed, as he said, the moment Li Qiao'er was released, she thought of running, but she didn't expect to be seen through.

"Damn it, who exactly is he? Why have I never heard of such a person?"

Li Qiao'er could only obediently remain in place, looking at the handsome but surprisingly wicked man in front of her.

Among the people she knew from memory, and within the Martial Association, she had never seen such a person. Could he be a rising star? Or someone from the mountains?

Moreover, he had no regard for cherishing women, even mocking her for being an Airport.

Just thinking about it made Li Qiao'er feel a surge of Life Qi.

The Yujie gripped her sword tightly. If her sister encountered an accident, she would not hesitate to act. At the same time, she scrutinized Chu He, seemingly trying to find some flaw.

But the more she looked, the more terrifying he seemed. Was this the power of an Earth Rank expert?

After a long standoff, a voice broke the silence.

Li Zhongtian, who had left earlier, returned, holding several stones in his hand.

"Please, Senior, release my granddaughter. I have brought all the Spirit Stones you requested."

Li Zhongtian held four dazzling crystal-like objects in his hand, which were indeed Spirit Stones.

However, they were not as good as the Spirit Stones Chu He had obtained earlier, but in the Age of Dharma Decline, having any Spirit Stones was already good.

"Is that all?"

Chu He looked at the Spirit Stones in the old man's hand. He had thought that someone who recognized their value like him would have many, but he didn't expect there to be only four.

Could he be deceiving him?

At the same time, Chu He also surveyed his surroundings, his senses covering the area.

After all, the person had been gone for more than ten minutes; he might have called for help.

However, he quickly dismissed that idea, as there was no one else behind the old man.

This old man truly cared about his granddaughter.

"That's all there is."

Li Zhongtian smiled helplessly, already seeing the surprise in Chu He's eyes, while also feeling a bitter smile in his heart.

In the Age of Dharma Decline, he had collected these four Spirit Stones for several years before finally obtaining them. He didn't expect to lose them all in one day.

Actually, at first, he had thought about calling people, but after careful consideration, he gave up, because he was afraid that Chu He would tear up the hostage. After all, an Earth Rank Martial Artist was unfathomable and extraordinarily powerful, not someone he could provoke. It was better to resolve the matter with wealth.

Although he was unwilling, he was helpless, as his granddaughter was at fault in the first place.

Under the astonished gazes of Li Zhongtian and the Yujie, the four Spirit Stones flew up out of thin air and landed in Chu He's hand.

"This is... telekinesis?!"

The old man and the Yujie were startled, feeling even more that Chu He was extraordinary.

Li Zhongtian had only seen such a technique used by a Grandmaster.

Could he be a Grandmaster?

However, Li Zhongtian quickly thought it impossible. A Grandmaster could only be achieved after decades or even a century of cultivation, and this person in front of him was only around twenty. How could he be a Grandmaster expert?

He only believed that Chu He was using some kind of Cultivation Technique he didn't know about.

Chu He took the Spirit Stones and weighed them in his hand, recognizing them as Low-Grade Spirit Stones at a glance, because the Spiritual Qi they possessed was nowhere near as abundant as the ten he had obtained earlier.

"You can go."

Having taken the Spirit Stones, Chu He would naturally abide by the terms and release Li Qiao'er.

"Ah?"

Li Qiao'er hadn't reacted yet, apparently shocked by the recent display of power.

"What? Do you still want to come home with me for the New Year?" Chu He smiled, looking at the unmoving woman.

"Who's going home with you for the New Year, shameless!"

Li Qiao'er's pretty face flushed. After scolding him, she got up and ran back to her sister's side, glaring at Chu He with a fierce, childish look.

"Old man, consider yourself sensible. Next time, you won't meet someone as easy to talk to as me."

Leaving that sentence, Chu He left without looking back.

"This bastard! Grandpa, we can't let this matter go like this. We can't suffer this loss."

Li Qiao'er watched Chu He leave angrily, then turned to her grandfather.

Looking at the red mark on her neck, she felt deeply humiliated.

Li Zhongtian, however, sighed and shook his head: "Forget it, we can't afford to provoke him."

"Grandpa, are we just going to let it go like this?" Li Qiao'er expressed her dissatisfaction.

"Grandpa, should we notify the Martial Association? Let them send someone to handle it." The Yujie said from the side at this moment.

The Martial Association she referred to was short for the Martial Artist Association.

It was an organization specifically for managing Martial Artists who committed crimes. As ancient martial arts gradually grew stronger, many people relied on their ancient martial arts skills to oppress common people or even commit murder and arson.

And the Martial Association was specifically for dealing with criminal Martial Artists, as well as Martial Artists who displayed ancient martial arts in front of civilians. These were not allowed.

"Alas... No."

Li Zhongtian shook his head again, sighing deeply, his brows furrowed.

"This person, at such a young age, is already an Earth Rank Martial Artist. He must have been guided by a master behind him. Moreover, he showed no fear when facing us, as if everything was under his control. He wasn't afraid at all, and he probably doesn't even care about the Martial Association."

"He is very confident in his strength. There is probably an even stronger person behind him, which allows him to be so calm. Didn't you notice? He was calm and composed from beginning to end, and I found that he didn't seem to be serious, otherwise, Qiao'er, you would have already died."

"How is that possible? Is there anyone in the world who isn't afraid of the Martial Association?" Li Qiao'er exclaimed in surprise.

Hearing her grandfather's last sentence, she felt a little scared. He wasn't serious? She had felt like she was dying at the time.

The Yujie, however, fell into thought, as if what her grandfather said was true; that person was terrifyingly calm throughout.

"There are many people who are not afraid of the Martial Association, Qiao'er. You must know that the Martial Association cannot cover the sky with one hand. There are many old monsters more powerful than the Martial Association."

"Consider today's incident a lesson for you. Moreover, I'm afraid that offending him will lead to retaliation from the strong person behind him. As for the Spirit Stones, if they're gone, they're gone. What I'm more worried about is you, understand?"

At this moment, Li Zhongtian seemed to have aged ten years, and he stroked Li Qiao'er's head with a haggard expression.

"I understand, Grandpa."

Li Qiao'er sobbed as she hugged Li Zhongtian, while the Yujie comforted her from the side.

Meanwhile, not long after leaving, Chu He quickly noticed that someone was following him.

Looking at the car stopped by the roadside and several people rushing towards him with menacing looks, Chu He's eyes radiated coldness.

"I knew it couldn't be so easy to take the Spirit Stones. It turns out that old man had a backup plan..."

#44Chapter 44: You Know Everything? Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment!

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

Fu Qing, the Cold family's butler, was also Leng Zhenghua's most trusted person, having watched Leng Shuanghua grow up since childhood.

Today, he was ordered to come and drive Chu He away from his Young Miss.

Having finally seen Chu He, he naturally wanted to complete the task given by the family head immediately. He picked up the one million he brought and prepared to get out of the car to intercept the other party, telling him to stay away from his Young Miss.

Leng Shuanghua came from a prestigious family; she was not someone Chu He, this kind of trash, could approach.

Since ancient times, status must match status; a toad cannot eat swan meat.

Today, he would make Chu He wisely leave.

Chu He, a poor, roughneck who fought all day, was simply not worthy of his Young Miss.

Giving him a million was already showing him respect.

Fu Qing curled his lips. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Chu He approaching with cold eyes and a fierce Aura.

Seeing this, he sneered inwardly.

Heh heh, has he recognized me? Is he preparing to curry favor with me?

Did this kid even investigate my identity just to get close to the Young Miss?

Unfortunately, I, Fu, have come on orders, and it is absolutely impossible. I must nip your feelings for the Young Miss in the bud, lest they sink into the ocean.

Fu Qing's eyes showed disdain as he walked towards Chu He, even extending his hand, "Chu He, do you know...ouch..."

Before he could finish speaking, a fist the size of a sandbag came flying at him.

Fu Qing, caught off guard, was punched, his entire head snapped backward, and he stumbled, losing his balance and falling to the ground.

Why did this kid suddenly hit me? Why isn't this going according to my script?

The bodyguards nearby rushed forward, but Chu He slapped them away, leaving them on the ground groaning incessantly.

Fu Qing quickly reacted, thundering, "Kid, are you looking for death? Do you know who I am?"

Fu Qing had Cultivated Martial Arts for twenty-six years and had already entered the Profound Rank Middle Stage. Being slapped by a young punk made him feel utterly humiliated and enraged.

Immediately, his Martial power emanated, attempting to teach Chu He a lesson.

"What? That old man only sent you few pieces of trash?" Chu He sneered, finding Fu Qing's words amusing.

He had originally thought Li Zhongtian would send a few experts, but this was all he got.

"What? Could it be you already knew?"

Fu Qing's pupils contracted, feeling extremely surprised. No, that's not right! The family head only instructed me to come; how did he know I was coming for him?

And he dared to call the family head an old man, and even call himself trash. How audacious!

Such a disrespectful person must not remain by the Young Miss's side.

Chu He, however, sneered. This person was still playing dumb.

If that was the case, then there was nothing more to say.

Seeing Chu He strike again, Fu Qing's eyes darkened. He extended his left hand, turning it into a claw, and lunged at Chu He.

"Arrogant brat, so what if you know? You're not going anywhere today! If you don't agree, this old man will beat you until you do!"

Fu Qing was furious, not expecting to be injured by a young punk. He immediately struck, ready to teach Chu He a profound lesson.

He wanted him to know that he and the Young Miss were simply not from the same world.

With this grab, he was confident he could snap Chu He's arm.

No one can save him today, I said it!

"What?!"

However, to his astonished gaze, Chu He directly grabbed his hand.

How is this possible?

This kid is not right!

After the initial shock, Fu Qing tried to counter-attack Chu He's body and pull his arm free, but he realized it was too late.

Chu He lifted and thrust his right leg upward, and Fu Qing's abdomen instantly suffered a heavy blow, his entire stomach caved in. The immense force sent him flying, and he was completely airborne.

With just this one strike, Fu Qing spat out blood, spinning 360 degrees in the air several times before abruptly landing, his face pale and weak from the pain.

"You... are a Martial Artist..."

This elbow strike made Fu Qing almost faint from the pain.

He looked at Chu He in horror, only then realizing that the other party was also a Martial Artist, and his strength was even above his own.

He didn't come to curry favor with him; he came to hit him.

Wasn't he a punk? How did he suddenly know Martial Arts?

"What? That old man didn't tell you? Then he's too disloyal. He didn't explain my situation clearly and just told you to come and rob."

Chu He looked at Fu Qing, who was like a dead dog, and kicked him. The latter crashed heavily into a tree by the roadside, and the entire tree was snapped in half.

"Go back and tell that old man, next time we meet, I'll make him understand the consequences of offending me."

Leaving a remark, Chu He waved his sleeve and departed gracefully.

In his opinion, this group of people couldn't cause any major trouble. The immediate priority now was to Cultivate. He intended to use these Spirit Stones to Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment today, to avoid prolonging the situation.

Fu Qing, with a faint breath, watched Chu He leave, his eyelids heavy as they closed.

Before his consciousness completely dissipated, Fu Qing was still a bit confused.

Rob what? Wasn't I here to teach him a lesson and make him stay away from the Young Miss?

And since the family head knew he was a Martial Artist, why didn't he tell me?

Then Fu Qing fainted. Perhaps in his last moment, he still hadn't figured out why the family head didn't tell him that Chu He was a Martial Artist.

...

Having resolved the trouble, Chu He hailed a taxi by the roadside and headed out of the city, preparing to find a mountain to Cultivate quietly and take the opportunity to Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.

These few Spirit Stones and the Foundation Establishment Pill were crucial for his Foundation Establishment Breakthrough; there was no room for error.

After the taxi stopped, Chu He immediately rushed up the mountain, found a quiet spot, and sat down directly on the ground. He punched the rough stone, which he bought for 100,000, shattering it and taking out the Spirit Stones inside.

Then he took out another stone with Spiritual Qi and placed it with the five Spirit Stones.

"Go! I must succeed in Foundation Establishment today."

After activating the Star Evolution Art, the essence of sunlight continuously condensed, and the Spirit Stones in front of him also floated into the air.

The sunlight essence was gold, and the Spiritual Qi was red. The two Auras constantly intertwined, forming a massive vortex in front of Chu He.

At the same time, his Dantian greedily devoured these two Auras.

As the Spirit Stones gradually dimmed and the essence decreased, Chu He successfully entered Qi Refining Ninth Layer, only one step away from Foundation Establishment.

When the Spiritual Qi reached the Realm point, Chu He took out a Foundation Establishment Pill, put it into his mouth, and once again activated his Cultivation Technique.

Rumble!

As another star was lit up, the Spiritual Qi within Chu He's body underwent a sudden change, and a massive Aura instantly erupted from him.

Crimson fire followed, intertwining with the Spiritual Qi and essence, forming three beautiful colors.

The scorching high temperature directly ignited the surroundings, instantly turning into a sea of fire.

And in the sea of fire, Chu He was like an Immortal, impervious to fire and water. His short hair unknowingly grew longer. He kept his eyes closed, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

"Break!"

As a sound rang out, a strong wind blew. Chu He suddenly opened his eyes, and golden light burst forth from them.

The Spiritual Qi also ran wild at this moment, forming a terrifying vortex.

Chu He stood up and clenched his fist. The Spiritual fire and Spiritual Qi vortex instantly dissipated. At the same time, he also underwent earth-shattering changes.

Seeing this, Chu He excitedly curled his lips, "Foundation Establishment is complete!"

"I want to fly with my sword!"

Flying with a sword, a man's fantasy.

Although he had never flown before, the moment he took out the short sword, Chu He felt as if it was innate. He stepped onto the Spiritual Artifact he had snatched from Ye Fan, activated his Spiritual Qi, and with a whoosh, soared straight into the Nine Heavens...

#45Chapter 45 There is a fairy in the sky, Miss Leng calls

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

“Woohoo!”

A gentle breeze brushed his cheeks, and Chu He soared through the clouds, an indescribable excitement in his eyes.

The moment a young man’s fantasy became reality, all his troubles vanished like smoke.

Although flying with a Spiritual Artifact consumed a lot of Spiritual Qi, at this moment he no longer held back, flying with all his might, just to enjoy that wonderful moment.

“Mom, look! There’s an Immortal outside.”

On an airplane, a chubby child pointed to Chu He, who was flying with his Spiritual Artifact not far away.

“Xiaobao, we’re on an airplane. Outside are just birds. Where would an Immortal come from?”

The woman clearly didn’t believe him, but she still followed her child’s gaze out the window and was soon startled.

“Someone… someone is flying?!”

When she clearly saw a figure outside, the woman felt like she’d been struck by lightning, even wondering if she was hallucinating.

And Chu He, soaring freely outside the window, was soon discovered by the passengers inside the plane. Everyone let out gasps of surprise, pulling out their phones to record this miraculous scene.

“Holy cow, it really looks like a person! Oh my goodness! Is it an Immortal?”

“Hiss… why is this Immortal wearing modern clothes?”

“Oh my god, quickly record this and post it on Douyin, it’s going to go viral!”

“I can’t get a clear shot of his profile. I must find this Immortal and become his disciple! I want to cultivate Immortality!”

“So fast! Faster than our plane! He’s leaving!”

The passengers exclaimed, and soon discovered that the Immortal began to accelerate, disappearing into the clouds in the blink of an eye.

They all recorded this magical flight, but unfortunately, they only got a side profile, and the distance was too great to capture his face clearly.

This video would surely go viral on the internet in no time, sparking heated discussions among netizens.

As for whether it was real or fake, that remained uncertain.

Chu He didn’t realize he had been filmed while flying. He was fully immersed in the joy of flight until his Spiritual Qi ran out, forcing him to descend.

“Awesome! That was so awesome.”

After landing in the uninhabited mountains, Chu He put away his Spiritual Artifact, his face beaming with happiness.

His Spiritual Qi was depleted, but it would replenish later. Of course, his first f

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

“Chu He, what are you doing here?”

“Also, how did you know I live here? Did you secretly follow me?”

When Leng Shuanghua saw that the person who came was Chu He, a layer of frost appeared on her pretty face, returning to her aloof demeanor, her brows even tightly furrowed, looking angry.

Chu He rarely saw her like this, and he actually found it a little cute.

Facing her questioning, Chu He smiled helplessly, “Young Miss, don’t tell me you’ve forgotten? I once slept on your sofa, so of course, I know you live here.”

“You slept at my house?”

Leng Shuanghua was stunned, unable to recall it for a moment.

Seeing this, Chu He explained, “Forgotten? It was when you told me to tie up that cheap woman.”

Reminded of this, Leng Shuanghua did remember.

It was a dark and windy night when she ordered Chu He to tie up a cheap woman who had angered her, to teach her a lesson.

Later, Chu He was injured and hadn’t slept all night, so Leng Shuanghua, in a burst of mercy, let him rest on the living room sofa for one night.

She didn’t expect him to remember her residence just from that?

“Oh, so that’s how it was!”

Leng Shuanghua felt a bit awkward; she had actually misunderstood Chu He.

But then she reacted, “I’m his master, why should I be awkward?”

She reverted to her cold demeanor, speaking indifferently, “So, why are you looking for me? How dare you come to find me without my command?”

Her gaze was as if she was scrutinizing Chu He, making him feel uncomfortable.

After shrugging helplessly, Chu He looked at her gem-like eyes and said, “So, I’ll leave?”

Seeing Leng Shuanghua unmoved, Chu He wisely turned and left without looking back.

He had originally wanted to see what this Young Miss was up to, but he didn’t expect that he had simply overthought it.

As Chu He walked further away, Leng Shuanghua grew anxious. “He’s not angry, is he?”

“I was just saying it, who knew he would actually leave.”

“Co-come back.”

After a moment of hesitation, Leng Shuanghua’s red lips parted slightly, her voice as faint as a mosquito, but she quickly put her outstretched hand down.

She was Leng Shuanghua, Miss Leng, how could she, for a dispensable minion, waver in her identity?

As Chu He reached the corner and was about to disappear, Leng Shuanghua struggled internally, finally shouting, “Chu He, you bastard, get back here!!!”

“Young Miss, what are you up to now?”

Just as she thought Chu He was about to disappear, Chu He’s helpless voice came from beside her ear. She looked up and saw that he, who had clearly walked away, had returned at some unknown point.

Leng Shuanghua was full of questions.

She had just called out, how did he come back so quickly?

Looking at the slight curve of his lips, that hint of a smile, Leng Shuanghua couldn’t help but feel that he was mocking her, and she was filled with a mix of shame and anger. “This bastard actually dares to laugh at me.”

However, Leng Shuanghua snorted coldly, turned her head away, and said in a cold voice, “I order you to accompany me to the banquet. No refusal.”

“Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?”

Chu He suddenly kept staring at her, making Leng Shuanghua uncomfortable, her face turning red.

Looking at Leng Shuanghua’s flushed, pretty face, which probably would steam if splashed with water, Chu He was a little dazed.

Leng Shuanghua was already beautiful, and blushing made her even more beautiful, even carrying the charm of a young woman.

This was only the second time he had seen her blush; the first was when she was drunk at the hotel.

“As you command.” Chu He nodded, wondering why he had never noticed that she was quite amusing.

Leng Shuanghua, however, found it inexplicable. After a cold snort, she invited Chu He inside.

Although it was his second time, Chu He was still amazed by the rich person’s villa. This was the life of the wealthy!

“Put on this suit, and tidy up your hair. You look like a beggar. Don’t embarrass this Young Miss at the banquet.”

Leng Shuanghua came down from upstairs and tossed a black suit into Chu He’s arms.

“Young Miss, you’re quite prepared. You didn’t prepare this from the beginning, did you?”

Seeing that the size was just right for him, Chu He chuckled and looked at Leng Shuanghua.

Her pretty face instantly flushed again, and she turned her head away, not daring to meet Chu He’s eyes, because he was right.

This suit was prepared for Chu He from the very beginning.

However, as Miss Leng, how could she admit it? She snorted coldly, “It’s my servant’s, just borrowing it. And do you even have a suit?”

“Yes, yes, yes… everything you say is right.”

Looking at Leng Shuanghua, whose face was red again, Chu He chuckled and began to change into the suit.

Seeing him change clothes in front of her, Leng Shuanghua screamed in fright, “What are you doing?!”

“Changing clothes? Didn’t Young Miss want me to change?”

“You haven’t not seen it before, and your fingers are open.”

Chu He found it amusing to see Leng Shuanghua covering her eyes with both hands, but with her fingers parted, looking like she wanted to see but was unwilling to admit it.

“Who wants to see your scrawny figure…”

Leng Shuanghua’s voice grew weaker and weaker. Looking at Chu He’s well-defined muscles and exquisite, powerful chest, her heart skipped a beat.

She had drunk too much at the time and hadn’t noticed that this bastard had such a good physique.

Finally, under Chu He’s gaze, she ran upstairs with a red face.

Chu He grinned, “Little girl, I’ll charm you to death.”

After Chu He changed his clothes, Leng Shuanghua also went upstairs to change into her banquet gown.

Soon after, Leng Shuanghua walked down the stairs in high heels and looked at Chu He, who was handsome and imposing in his suit.

Why did this bastard look so handsome in a suit?

Chu He also noticed her and was stunned when he looked up.

She was wearing a champagne-colored off-shoulder evening gown, its smooth lines outlining her graceful figure.

Her exquisite collarbone and fair, fragrant shoulders were exposed, making her elegant and seductive. Her hair was neatly styled in a high bun, and her eyes were confident, yet alluring.

Every gesture exuded a noble aura.

“How is it? Am I pretty?”

Leng Shuanghua looked at Chu He’s dazed expression, feeling a surge of pride and happiness.

“Beautiful.”

Receiving the compliment, Leng Shuanghua was very happy.

And soon she noticed Chu He walking towards her.

“What… what are you going to do?”

Leng Shuanghua retreated backward, watching Chu He, with a smile on his lips, approach step by step until she had nowhere to go.

Fear, or perhaps a little anticipation, of Chu He’s next move.

“Young Miss, don’t you think you look very alluring when you blush?”

Chu He used his hand to hook Leng Shuanghua’s delicate chin. Her slender body trembled; she didn’t expect him to be so bold.

“Chu He, you’re too presumptuous.”

Feeling Chu He’s breath, her body softened slightly, and her pretty face was flushed red like blood.

“Never mind, I won’t tease you anymore. It’s getting late, and the banquet is about to start.”

Her body trembled with nervousness, and Chu He felt he couldn’t tease her any longer. It wouldn’t be good if something unexpected happened.

Hearing this, Leng Shuanghua, however, became angry and refused, saying with shame and indignation, “You say you won’t tease me, and then you just stop?”

“This Young Miss orders you not to move.”

With that, she pushed Chu He onto the sofa.

Chu He: ???

Looking at Leng Shuanghua coming towards him, he suddenly felt a bad premonition.

Damn it, things have gotten out of hand.

This Young Miss is even bolder than he imagined…

#47Chapter 47 How did you get in?

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

Century Hotel.

At this moment, the children of all the influential figures in the Imperial Capital were gathered here, having been invited to attend this birthday banquet.

"Shuang Hua, I thought you weren't coming; you scared me to death."

In a corner, Leng Shuanghua was sipping wine when a figure suddenly approached her, looking a bit worried, but then relieved when she saw that Leng Shuanghua had arrived.

The person who came was Leng Shuanghua's good friend, Gong Yue, and also the protagonist of this banquet.

"My dear birthday girl, it's your birthday today, how could I not come? Here… this is your birthday gift." Leng Shuanghua smiled as she took out a gift box, which Gong Yue happily accepted.

"Ah! Shuang Hua, I love you so much."

Gong Yue tried to hug her but was blocked by Leng Shuanghua's hand.

"Stingy~"

Gong Yue clicked her tongue, but soon noticed that Leng Shuanghua's state was a bit off and quickly asked, "Shuang Hua, why is your face so red?"

Based on her understanding of Leng Shuanghua, she had just arrived and hadn't drunk much, so how could her face be this red? Moreover, there was a subtle, hard-to-detect sheen of sweat on her forehead, and when Gong Yue got closer, she could hear heavy breathing.

It was as if she had just finished exercising and was resting after being tired.

And her legs also seemed a bit strange.

"Maybe it's too hot… and I had a little wine."

Leng Shuanghua awkwardly tugged at her collar, touched her flushed face, and pretended to be hot, but unknowingly, the blush on her face deepened. However, her face was already red, so Gong Yue didn't notice.

"I see. Then I'll have them turn down the air conditioning."

Gong Yue didn't suspect anything and instead prepared to notify the hotel staff.

However, she was stopped by Leng Shuanghua, "No need, I'll be fine after resting for a while."

"Alright."

Since Leng Shuanghua said so, Gong Yue couldn't say much more.

"Oh, by the way, I heard you brought a male companion. How is he? Is he handsome? Which Young Master is he from?"

It was then that Gong Yue remembered the purpose of her approach and couldn't help but curiously scan the crowd, wondering which Young Master was so fortunate as to be the male companion of the Imperial Capital's most beautiful woman.

"There, him."

As Leng Shuanghua pointed with her small hand, Gong Yue followed her gaze, and her expression instantly froze when she saw Chu He devouring food in the distance.

"That big eater is your male companion? I thought someone had snuck in earlier and was gorging himself. What's his background? Which Young Master is he from?!"

Gong Yue asked with anticipation, her eyes lighting up at Chu He's appearance, though he seemed like a starving ghost reborn.

However, this young man was certainly more pleasing to the eye than her own eighty-year-old decrepit old man.

Leng Shuanghua, however, fell silent, her face a bit powerless. How could she possibly say that Chu He was actually her lackey?

And his wolfing down food made Leng Shuanghua feel so embarrassed.

"Forget it, never mind him. Yue Yue, have a drink with me."

...

"This is delicious."

"This is also delicious."

Chu He, who had expended a great deal of Spiritual Qi and physical strength, was now like a starving ghost reincarnated, burying himself in food, his mouth greasy with oil.

Indeed, he hadn't come for nothing; the five-star chef's skills were excellent.

Meanwhile, some Young Masters and Young Misses sitting next to him showed expressions of disgust and moved away from him, to which Chu He was indifferent.

Good, they moved away. I can go and try the food over there too.

"Chu He? How did you get in here?"

Just then, a voice filled with surprise rang out.

Hearing the familiar voice, Chu He looked up and saw an old acquaintance.

The person who came was Li Xiuyuan, representing the Li Family to attend this birthday banquet. He thought he would meet Leng Shuanghua again and planned to explain himself properly this time, hoping to gain her forgiveness.

However, after wandering around inside, he unexpectedly found the person he least wanted to meet.

Ever since he was humiliated by Leng Shuanghua last time, Li Xiuyuan had hated Chu He, that lackey.

"Li Shao, do you know him?"

The girls around Li Xiuyuan scrutinized Chu He, feeling a wave of nausea at the sight of his greasy mouth.

Had this person never eaten before?

Seeing everyone around looking over, Li Xiuyuan suddenly had an idea. The corner of his mouth curved into a mocking smile as he said, "Know him? How could I not know him? This person is Leng Shuanghua's number one lackey. I'm just surprised how he snuck in without an invitation."

He wanted to thoroughly humiliate Chu He, to make him understand the gap between them.

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue erupted in an uproar.

"He's Young Miss Leng's lackey? Doesn't that mean he's a servant? How did he get in?"

"You know, we were all invited here. To be with such a lowly person is simply beneath us. Where's security? Why aren't you throwing him out?!"

"I knew it! How could this starving ghost be the Young Master of some Family? Turns out he's just a servant."

"You're incredibly bold, daring to sneak into the banquet and offend Young Master Li. Be careful, or you'll regret it deeply."

Instantly, the surrounding Young Masters and Young Misses began to gang up on Chu He.

They weren't foolish; everyone could see that Li Xiuyuan was targeting him.

Their actions were merely to curry favor with Li Xiuyuan, their goal being to gain his recognition. After all, being remembered by the Young Master of the Imperial Capital's prestigious Li Family was an honor.

Seeing everyone on his side, Li Xiuyuan's face showed a triumphant smile, while he stared at Chu He with amusement.

So what if you climbed onto Leng Shuanghua? A lackey is still a lackey.

He had always believed that Leng Shuanghua was merely sulking at him, as his breaking off the engagement must have hurt her heart. Now, she and Chu He were just playing around, and kissing Chu He at the time was just to spite him.

As long as he sincerely apologized, Leng Shuanghua would not hesitate to kick Chu He, that lackey, aside and resume their engagement with him.

At that time, controlling the Leng Family would be within reach.

Chu He unhurriedly wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue, looked up at the crowd, and stared at Li Xiuyuan, saying, "Are you done talking?"

Chu He's eyes were perfectly calm, showing not a trace of anger, yet they made people feel extremely terrified, as if they had fallen into an ice cellar and were being stared at by a beast.

An invisible pressure weighed down on everyone, making them gasp for breath, and some even nearly wet themselves from fright.

"What do you want to do?" Li Xiuyuan's heart pounded under Chu He's gaze, and he unconsciously took half a step back.

"Of course, I want to deal with you. I've been annoyed with you for a long time." Chu He smirked.

"Help! Security! Where's the security?!"

Seeing Chu He approaching, Li Xiuyuan fearfully called out for security and his bodyguards.

He was a pampered Young Master; how could he be a match for a hooligan like Chu He?

Moreover, he hadn't expected Chu He to actually lay a hand on him; he must have eaten a bear's heart and a leopard's guts.

"What are your orders, Li Shao?"

Just then, the hotel's security guards and bodyguards came over.

"Get him out of here!" Li Xiuyuan pointed at Chu He and yelled.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, several bodyguards and security guards instantly looked at Chu He and moved to grab him.

At the same time, the surrounding people watched this good show with an expression of schadenfreude.

"Get lost."

A furious roar made the bodyguards and security guards stop in terror, their bodies stiff and trembling involuntarily.

Their pupils were wide with shock. What was happening? Why couldn't they move?

Chu He walked directly past the security guards and bodyguards, and under the astonished and incredulous gazes of everyone, he unhesitatingly punched Li Xiuyuan in the nose, sending blood splattering everywhere. Then, with another punch, he knocked out several of Li Xiuyuan's teeth.

"Ah..."

Li Xiuyuan let out a pig-like wail, clutching his nose and rolling on the ground.

He had never imagined that Chu He would actually dare to attack him, and with one punch, he had broken his nose and several teeth.

Li Xiuyuan was enraged. He looked at his unmoving bodyguards, and his heart was instantly filled with fury.

"What are you standing around for? Don't you see I've been hit? Kill him for me!"

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

Li Xiuyuan gnashed his teeth in anger, touching his highly swollen cheek, and looking at the arrogant Chu He, he was completely enraged.

How dare he, how dare he!

I am the Young Master of the Li family, the future head of the Li family, and Leng Shuanghua's fiancé.

And he is merely a dog-legged lackey, yet he dared to lay a hand on me.

Li Xiuyuan's eyes were filled with hatred and killing intent, watching the bodyguards move, he only wanted Chu He to die.

How dare you make me lose face in front of so many people, this Young Master will definitely make you die.

"Oh my goodness! Is this person not afraid of death? He actually dared to hit Li Xiuyuan, he's dead for sure now."

"Idiot, a complete idiot! Offending Li Xiuyuan, he has completely blocked his own path now."

"These bodyguards and security guards are also useless, to be scared by just a look from him."

Listening to the voices nearby, the bodyguards' expressions were a bit awkward, but since they were Li Shao's bodyguards, they naturally had to protect his personal safety.

Although they felt this kid was a bit strange, at this moment they had no choice but to act, otherwise, they would lose their jobs.

Although these bodyguards were not Martial Artists, they were genuine practitioners, with robust Qi.

"Stop!"

Just as Chu He was about to make a move, Gong Yue walked over with Leng Shuanghua.

They had been attracted by the commotion here earlier, and when they walked over and saw the scene, they were incredibly shocked.

What kind of state is Li Xiuyuan in now? He was actually beaten to such an extent.

Gong Yue was about to get angry, as someone was causing trouble at her banquet, but she quickly swallowed it back, because she saw Li Xiuyuan, who was the Young Master of the Li family, someone she could not afford to offend.

Then she looked at Chu He, the one who did the beating, and behind him was Leng Shuanghua, who was also her friend, making it even harder for her to speak up.

"Chu He, what have you done?"

Leng Shuanghua never expected that such a big thing would happen in just a short moment of her inattention.

Seeing her friend in a difficult situation, she quickly spoke up.

What she didn't expect was that Li Xiuyuan was also here, and it looked like he had been beaten by Chu He.

Although she felt a sense of relief internally, the Li family and the Leng family were equally matched, and this action would undoubtedly offend Li Xiuyuan.

Although she didn't care personally, there would be some changes in the business dealings between the Leng family and the Li family. Leng Shuanghua knew Li Xiuyuan and his father's character all too well.

If they weren't given a reasonable explanation, the other party might terminate their cooperation.

At that time, her father would probably blame her.

Chu He stopped upon hearing this, and the bodyguards also did the same, turning their heads to look at Li Xiuyuan, seemingly asking for instructions.

"Why are you looking at me? Go teach him a lesson!"

Li Xiuyuan was furious; was he just going to be beaten for nothing?

Even with Leng Shuanghua present, he didn't care anymore.

He didn't believe that Leng Shuanghua would go against his Li family for a dog-legged lackey.

Upon hearing this, the bodyguards attacked again.

#49Chapter 49: Punching the Arm

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

"Kid, you're so young yet so vicious with your attacks."

"How dare you!"

Wang De's voice was low, his pupils scanning Chu He, and an Earth Rank aura swept across the entire venue.

Everyone was so pressured by this invisible force that they couldn't breathe, and some even turned pale, involuntarily kneeling under that power.

"What is this? My legs aren't listening to me."

Everyone showed astonished expressions, only those who understood were shocked.

"Wang De, it's actually that guy."

"It's him! This person is known as the 'Cold-Faced Killer.' My father told me he's an Earth Rank expert. Now, the person who made a move is in trouble."

"Is this what a Martial Artist is? What a powerful aura! I don't even dare to meet his gaze."

Martial Artists are not a secret in wealthy circles; aside from a small number of people who don't know, most are aware.

Martial Artists are above Mortals, possessing 'extraordinary' methods that ordinary people cannot imagine.

Offending a Martial Artist, for ordinary people, is undoubtedly seeking death. After all, it's very easy for them to kill someone; Martial Artists kill as easily as drinking water.

Some Families even spend large sums of money to seek Martial Artist protection to ensure the safety of their Family members.

It's generally impossible for ordinary people to invite Martial Artist protection. Aside from a few individual Martial Artists, most of them disdain wealthy Mortals.

And for Wang De, as an Earth Rank Martial Artist, to willingly work for the Li Family, it's clear that the treatment he receives from the Li Family is very generous.

"Hmm? I didn't expect you could still stand. It seems you're also a Martial Artist."

Wang De looked at the unmoving Chu He with some surprise, a hint of astonishment in his heart.

Although he used pressure, he didn't go all out; otherwise, these Young Masters and Young Misses would probably be in trouble.

And Chu He being able to remain still clearly indicates he is also a Martial Artist. As for his strength... he hasn't seen it yet, but given this kid's age, at most, he's at the Profound Rank Realm.

"What? This kid is also a Martial Artist? No wonder he can be so composed in front of this Senior."

"My goodness! The Leng Family is too rich, aren't they? Even the lackeys they found for Leng Shuanghua are Martial Artists?!"

The surrounding crowd was full of exclamations.

One must know that finding a Martial Artist as a bodyguard is extremely difficult; it's not something that can be achieved just with money. And Leng Shuanghua's lackeys are actually Martial Artists? That's too amazing! How did she do it?

But only Leng Shuanghua herself knew that her Family only had two Martial Artists, one of whom was invited at a very high cost.

The other was Uncle Fu, who had watched her grow up since childhood. He was different; Uncle Fu and her father had known each other since they were young, and their relationship was very good.

What surprised her even more was when Chu He became a Martial Artist.

Before, he was clearly an idle hooligan.

"Thank you, Uncle De. You've come at just the right time."

"Uncle De, you must avenge me. This scoundrel broke my leg."

Upon seeing Wang De, Li Xiuyuan's confidence soared. This was the Martial Artist his father had gone to great lengths to invite.

And with his appearance, Li Xiuyuan naturally wouldn't let Chu He off the hook.

He would definitely make him pay a blood debt.

"How dare you break this Young Master's legs? I'll break all four of your limbs."

Li Xiuyuan looked at Chu He with hatred, staring intently, wishing Wang De would kill him immediately.

"Don't worry, Young Master, I will certainly avenge you." Wang De spoke to calm Li Xiuyuan's agitated emotions, then scanned the surroundings, his gaze settling on Chu He.

"Senior, please spare his life for the sake of my Leng Family's Face."

"Li Xiuyuan, I am willing to compensate you for your current losses, as long as you let him go."

At this moment, Leng Shuanghua, suppressing the fear in her heart, stepped forward, solely to plead for Chu He.

She understood in her heart that an Earth Rank Martial Artist was not to be made an enemy of.

Even the Leng Family wouldn't dare to conflict with an Earth Rank Martial Artist; after all, Martial Artists are not someone ordinary people like them can provoke.

She had witnessed the methods of Martial Artists with her own eyes.

Chu He was her person; she could only hope that the other party would spare Chu He's life out of respect for her Family's Face.

"Heh heh, compensation? My legs have been broken by him. What can you, Leng Shuanghua, compensate me with?"

Li Xiuyuan saw Leng Shuanghua actually pleading for a lackey, and his heart immediately filled with rage.

Just a mere lackey, yet he could make Leng Shuanghua speak up to plead? What right did he have?!

Compensation? Li Xiuyuan didn't need it; he only wanted Chu He to die.

He had never suffered such a great grievance in his life, even having his legs broken by someone.

"Give you Face? Hmph! If your father were here, this old man might give a bit of Face, but you're just a little girl from the Leng Family..."

"Get out of the way. I only want this kid's life, otherwise don't blame this old man for not giving your Leng Family Face."

Wang De said coldly.

As an Earth Rank Martial Artist, even major Families would only fawn over him; he didn't need to give anyone Face.

Leng Shuanghua's Face instantly turned ashen upon hearing this, and she let out a bitter laugh, as if all strength had left her body.

That's right!

The other party was a Martial Artist; her words were useless against a Martial Artist.

In the Face of strength, even a powerful Family was useless.

Seeing that she had no intention of moving aside, Wang De's expression immediately became displeased. Ignoring her, he reached out and grabbed towards Chu He.

Everyone immediately scattered and fled, as fighting between Martial Artists can be very dangerous.

At the same time, they also pitied Chu He. Of all people to provoke, he just had to provoke Li Shao. Now he was dead for sure.

"Go to the back."

Chu He, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke slowly, taking Leng Shuanghua's hand and moving her behind him.

"But you..."

Just as Leng Shuanghua was about to say something, Chu He covered her mouth with his hand.

"Don't worry, he's not my opponent yet." Chu He smiled slightly, comforting Leng Shuanghua.

Seeing her so worried about him, Chu He even wondered if this was the so-called 'love that grows over time.' Had she fallen in love with him?

Seeing his confident smile, Leng Shuanghua was a little bewildered.

"Are you kidding me? That's an Earth Rank Martial Artist!"

But at this moment, she could only choose to believe.

"Arrogant kid, die."

Upon hearing this, Wang De didn't get angry but laughed instead. This sentence could be said to be the funniest joke he had ever heard.

True Qi instantly surged forth, mixed with a cold wind, making everyone's hearts pound with fear.

"Arrogant? This is confidence, and you're the one who will die."

Chu He put away his smile, his eyes sinking. Looking at the opponent's claw, he raised his hand and threw a punch.

It was clearly just an ordinary punch, yet it caused Wang De's expression to change dramatically.

"Ridiculous, how can a mere stinky kid like you even dream of..." Wang De laughed heartily, just about to mock, then his expression changed drastically.

"Not good, this aura... something's wrong."

Wang De's pupils constricted. How could this punch carry such terrifying True Qi? No, it seemed it wasn't True Qi.

When he wanted to dodge, it was already too late.

Chu He's fist arrived, colliding with his outstretched palm.

A tearing sound.

The force of the punch directly penetrated Wang De's entire arm, followed by a tearing sound. The terrifying power instantly ripped Wang De's skin, not only causing his entire hand to explode but also making the skin on it peel back, revealing ghastly white bones.

The hand bones snapped in the middle, with some skin still hanging, a horrifying sight.

"Ah!"

Wang De cried out in agony, clutching his arm, cold sweat beading on his forehead as he pulled away from Chu He.

But he only saw killing intent brimming in Chu He's eyes. Like a phantom, he appeared in front of him, opened his large hand, and grabbed his head, followed by an immense force...

#50Chapter 50: Earth Rank is just like this, shy Leng Shuanghuan

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

“Ugh…”

Such a bloody scene turned many people pale, and some even vomited directly.

The bloody arm lingered in their minds.

Gong Yue watched all this with a pale face, her heart feeling extremely awful. How could such a thing suddenly happen at her birthday party?

Looking at Chu He, a trace of resentment couldn't help but rise in her heart.

If it weren't for him, her birthday party could have continued nicely. Now, everything was ruined.

Leng Shuanghua, who was beside her, wasn't much better. Although she wasn't a good person herself, at most she would look down on people or slap them.

This was the first time she had witnessed such a scene, and seeing that mangled arm made her stomach churn.

What shocked her even more was how Chu He had suddenly become so powerful, able to strike a person's arm into such a state with a single punch.

One must know that was an Earth Rank Martial Artist.

She had heard from her father that an Earth Rank Martial Artist was someone who wasn't even afraid of guns, yet Chu He had broken an arm with one punch. How great was his strength?!

“You’re not a Profound Rank!!”

Wang De was greatly shocked, never expecting this punch to be so powerful.

The sudden loss of his arm made his face pale.

What was even more terrifying was that his head was actually gripped, and the immense force made his head ache as if it would explode at any moment.

“Did I say I was a Profound Rank?”

Chu He sneered, then tightened his grip even more.

“It's not that easy to kill me.”

Wang De endured the risk of his head exploding, condensing True Qi in his palm and punching towards Chu He’s abdomen.

At the same time, he released all his True Qi to push Chu He away, just to gain a glimmer of Life Qi, then threw out a pill the size of a goose egg.

With a bang.

Smoke instantly filled the entire area. Wang De disappeared into the smoke, his figure gradually dissipating.

“Boy, next time we meet, this old man will definitely kill you to vent his hatred.”

Leaving a harsh threat, Wang De turned and ran.

“Heh heh!”

Seeing this, Chu He curved a strange smile.

This person wouldn't really think he could break free from his hand and escape, would he?

In fact, all of this was Chu He's plan. He intentionally let go, his purpose being to let Wang De run further away. Otherwise, with the opponent's Qi Refining Realm strength, how could he possibly break free from his hand?

He did this simply because he didn't want to kill him in front of Leng Shuanghua.

He had noticed Leng Shuanghua vomiting, and if he killed Wang De in front of her, that woman would probably develop a psychological shadow of him.

“Chu He, you can’t let him… ugh, run away, otherwise there will be… trouble, ugh…”

Leng Shuanghua spoke to warn him.

Chu He watched her speak while throwing up, finding it a bit amusing. He hoped she wouldn't choke.

Even without her saying so, Chu He wouldn't let Wang De live.

He then pursued him.

“Damn it, how can this kid's strength be above mine? Could it be that he's a Heaven Rank?”

Seeing that he had run quite a distance, Wang De, with a look of having escaped a disaster, stopped the bleeding from his arm. He looked behind him with some lingering fear and, upon realizing no one was there, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

“That damned kid, I was actually tricked by him.”

“Today you broke my arm, in the future I will surely wipe out your entire family, and the Leng family… I won't let you off either.”

Wang De looked back furiously, miserably preparing to find a place to safely treat his injuries.

And just as he turned around, a short sword flew at extreme speed, carrying terrifying power, and pierced into Wang De's chest, nailing him firmly to the wall.

“Uh…”

“Spiritual Artifact…”

Wang De groaned in pain, staring in astonishment at the short sword in his chest. The sword was now covered in blood.

Where did this Spiritual Artifact come from? And I seem to be impaled.

Wang De coughed up large mouthfuls of blood, pressed against the wall, firmly pinned by the sword, unable to move at all.

“Too bad you won't have a future.”

At this moment, a cold voice came from behind him.

“It's you… How could you…”

Although he was facing away from the figure, Wang De knew who the newcomer was; it was clearly Chu He, who had just broken his arm.

What shocked him was how the other party had caught up so quickly, without him even noticing.

“You didn't really think you could run away, did you? If I wasn't afraid my Young Miss would be scared, you would have already died at the banquet.”

Chu He raised his hand and drew, and the short sword returned to his hand.

“So that's how it is, you deliberately let me run.”

“Can you tell me why you're so strong? This old man wants to die understanding.”

Wang De said weakly after falling to the ground. He had already given up struggling and resisting, because he sensed that his heart was damaged, and he was only holding on by his last breath of True Qi.

Chu He did not respond, but a ball of spiritual flame condensed in his hand.

When he saw the flame, Wang De's eyes widened, full of disbelief.

As the flames spread throughout his body, Wang De was burned to ashes amidst screams, dead beyond dead.

“An ancient martial Earth Rank Realm is only at the Peak of the third layer of Qi Refining. It seems ancient martial arts aren't that impressive after all!”

Chu He looked at the burning flames, muttering to himself. He just didn't know if there were other cultivators like himself in this world.

“Still, I should return to the banquet first.”

Soon, Chu He put away his thoughts and turned back to the banquet.

When he returned, he found that Li Xiuyuan, who had originally been lying on the ground, was gone.

“He was carried back by others.”

Seeing him looking at the bloodstains on the ground, Leng Shuanghua walked over from the frightened crowd and explained to him.

At the same time, she looked at Chu He with a worried expression and asked, “Are you alright? Did he get away?”

Leng Shuanghua's face turned pale again.

Chu He returning so quickly clearly meant that the other party had escaped, but it was good that he was alright.

Chu He didn't answer her, but instead said with some surprise, “Why are you so worried about me? Don't tell me you've fallen for me?”

“Who would fall for you? Do you know how much trouble you've caused me?”

Leng Shuanghua said indignantly, her face already red, feigning anger, which was rather cute.

Looking at Chu He's faint smile, Leng Shuanghua lowered her head, a little shy.

She was indeed worried about Chu He.

She didn't know what was wrong with her either.

Could she really have feelings for him?

Impossible! He was just her lackey; how could she possibly like him?

I, Leng Shuanghua, am a Young Miss.

In the end, Leng Shuanghua was too embarrassed, so she immediately reverted to her cold demeanor and left directly to apologize to Gong Yue.

Looking at Leng Shuanghua, who had become aloof again, Chu He scratched his head. This woman was truly fickle; she was worried about him just a moment ago, and now she was like this again.

“However, this is just her.”

Chu He watched her converse with Gong Yue and did not go over to disturb them.

Because he had more important things to do.

Wang De was dead, now it was Li Xiuyuan's turn.

Chu He didn't think Li Xiuyuan would let him off so easily.

It would be better to strike first and deal with him.

Looking at the blood Li Xiuyuan had left behind earlier, Chu He sensed his Qi and headed towards a hospital...

#51Chapter 51 How dare you laugh

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

Hospital.

Li Xiuyuan was currently unconscious due to excessive blood loss, but fortunately, he was rescued.

After a few Young Masters paid the medical expenses, they glanced at the miserable Li Xiuyuan, intending to let him rest well, and then went to the corridor to inform the Li family.

Now that such a big incident had occurred, the entire Imperial Capital would change.

One must know that Li Xiuyuan was Li Yu's most beloved child; being beaten like this, that person would certainly receive endless retaliation from the Li family.

As the group walked out of the ward, a Spiritual Qi from outside the window directly entered the forehead of the sleeping Li Xiuyuan.

In an instant, Li Xiuyuan unconsciously trembled, as if he had been attacked.

Within a few short seconds, Li Xiuyuan stopped struggling, and the nearby instrument also turned into a straight line that no longer pulsed.

Li Xiuyuan was dead.

Chu He, flying in mid-air, quietly watched all of this, his eyes unperturbed; after seeing him die, he returned to the banquet without looking back.

Because of Li Xiuyuan and Chu He's matter, the banquet ended hastily, and Gong Yue's mood was extremely low, her resentment towards Chu He deepening by several points.

"Yueyue, I ruined your birthday banquet; if you want to blame someone, blame me."

Leng Shuanghua looked at Gong Yue's worried expression, feeling very unpleasant in her heart, and kept apologizing.

"Sigh~ What's done is done, there's no use saying anything now. I originally wanted to have a good birthday, but I didn't expect..." Gong Yue said wistfully.

With Li Xiuyuan having an incident here, what she feared most was that the Li family would pursue the matter.

However, she also couldn't afford to offend the Leng family, plus being good friends with Leng Shuanghua for many years, she couldn't bring herself to blame her.

"I'm sorry, I will compensate you."

Leng Shuanghua also didn't know how to persuade her; that scoundrel Chu He kept causing trouble for her, and today he even brought down the heavens.

"When he comes back, I'll definitely make him pay." Leng Shuanghua said angrily.

"Young Miss, who are you going to make pay?"

At this moment, a voice came, and the two women turned their heads to see Chu He, who had appeared at some unknown time, staring at Leng Shuanghua with a smile.

"When did you come back?"

Leng Shuanghua's heart skipped a beat; how could this person be so elusive?

At the same time, her eyes darted away, like a child caught in the act.

Did he hear everything?

Feeling a little flustered, she stood up directly, "Do you know how much trouble you've caused me? My Leng family might not even be able to protect you."

"I know."

Chu He nodded. He understood that this matter would not end here. Now that he had broken Li Xiuyuan's legs and killed Wang De at the banquet.

Presumably, the Li family would know by tomorrow, and endless retaliation would await him.

"Young Miss still thinking of protecting me at this time is truly surprising." Chu He chuckled, not taking the matter to heart.

"You still have the nerve to laugh."

Leng Shuanghua was practically dumbfounded with anger. Do you know how much trouble you've caused?

With such a big matter, even her father personally stepping forward might not be able to protect Chu He, let alone her father wouldn't even step forward at all.

Although the relationship between the two families was generally ordinary, and even after the broken engagement incident, they still had business dealings, after all, it was a win-win.

"Don't worry, I will bear this matter alone." Chu He lit a cigarette, looking at the exasperated Leng Shuanghua.

"

Choose One Out of Five Every Day. If I'm Not Invincible, Who Will Be? Chapter 52

#52Chapter 52 Did the Li family provoke the Grandmaster?

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

“You mean that kid is a Martial Artist? And you even lost to him?”

Leng Zhenghua sat in his study, and in front of him was Fu Qing, who had been brutally beaten by Chu He earlier.

“Yes, Family Head.”

Fu Qing looked haggard, his chest still aching faintly. He had just woken up not long ago when he found Leng Zhenghua and informed him of the matter.

“And Family Head, why didn’t you tell me then that he was a Martial Artist?”

Fu Qing’s old face flushed red as he voiced his confusion.

If the Family Head had told him earlier, he wouldn’t have been beaten so badly by that kid.

At these words, Leng Zhenghua was stunned, “I told you?”

“Old Fu, tell me the whole story.” Leng Zhenghua looked at Fu Qing’s expression change slightly, seemingly realizing something.

Seeing this, Fu Qing was puzzled. Could it be that the Family Head didn’t know?

However, he still told Leng Zhenghua everything that had happened earlier.

After listening, Leng Zhenghua fell silent.

“I didn’t know he was a Martial Artist. Old Fu, you were tricked by him.”

“I was tricked?” Fu Qing was taken aback, pondering what had happened earlier. Could there have been some misunderstanding?

This made him recall how Chu He had immediately punched him without a word.

“I didn’t expect Shuang Hua’s lackey to be a Martial Artist. He hides it quite well.”

“What exactly is his purpose in approaching Shuang Hua?”

Leng Zhenghua’s expression turned grim. His fingers tapped on the table, his mind racing. He had never expected his daughter’s lackey to be a Martial Artist.

He couldn’t help but worry about his daughter’s safety.

“Old Fu, what Realm do you think that kid is in? To defeat you so easily, his strength must not be simple.” Leng Zhenghua asked.

Hearing this, Fu Qing thought carefully, then hesitated before saying, “I have cultivated for many years and am currently at the Xuan Realm (Middle Stage). To defeat me so easily, even a Xuan Realm (Late-Stage) wouldn’t be able to do it with such ease. So I think that kid, Chu He, is probably Earth Rank or even higher.”

“Earth Rank Martial Artist?!”

Leng Zhenghua’s heart trembled. He had great faith in the assessment of Fu Qing, who had been his housekeeper and friend for many years.

Earth Rank!

If he was truly Earth Rank, it seemed it wouldn’t be impossible for him to stay by his daughter’s side.

One must know that he had previously spent hundreds of millions without being able to hire an Earth Rank expert for protection, which shows the arrogance of Earth Rank Martial Artists.

As for the Li family, he didn’t know what methods they used to make Earth Rank experts fight for them.

This matter had always been a thorn in his side. Every time he thought of it, he would get angry, wondering why the Li family could hire Earth Rank experts while his Leng family only had two Profound Rank Martial Artists.

“Old Fu, what do you think of such a young Earth Rank Martial Artist?” Leng Zhenghua suddenly asked.

Fu Qing replied without hesitation, “To reach Earth Rank at such a young age, his future achievements are bound to be extraordinary. He might even enter the Heaven Rank or even the Grandmaster Realm.”

“Grandmaster?!” Leng Zhenghua was shocked. He didn’t expect Fu Qing’s evaluation of him to be so high.

One must know that a Grandmaster is an existence above tens of thousands of people. Reaching that level, they can no longer be described as human, but rather as Immortals.

If such a powerful person could be used by him, Leng Zhenghua dared not imagine what heights his Leng family would reach.

“Old Fu, find some time to go to Shuang Hua and tell her I want to see Chu He.”

“Alright.”

Fu Qing understood Leng Zhenghua’s meaning perfectly. After hearing this, he went down to rest.

“This damn weather, it changes so suddenly.”

After Fu Qing retreated, Leng Zhenghua couldn’t contain his excitement and pushed open the window.

He found that outside, there was lightning and thunder, wind and rain.

Looking at the rain, he suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Thump thump thump…

Just then, Leng Zhenghua’s phone rang. When he saw who was calling, his eyes suddenly darkened, and he answered.

“Hello?”

Listening to the noisy sounds and the thunder and rain on the other end of the phone, Leng Zhenghua’s pupils instantly widened, his eyes filled with disbelief.

“What did you say? The Li family was wiped out?”

As the rain gradually subsided, a piece of news that night directly turned the Imperial Capital upside down.

Overnight, the Li family, one of the Imperial Capital’s three great aristocratic families, was wiped out.

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this news.

When the 現場 photos were uploaded, the entire Martial Artist Forum exploded.

“Oh my goodness! What kind of monster did the Li family provoke? They were actually wiped out.”

“Judging from these traces and injuries, this is probably the work of a Grandmaster expert. What kind of existence did the Li family provoke?”

“The terror of a Grandmaster expert is astonishing. Such methods are truly divine.”

“What did the Li family do? How could they provoke a Grandmaster expert? And which Senior was responsible? How could they be so ruthless?”

“You’re asking for death! How dare you discuss a Grandmaster expert here? Be careful, you might be next.”

“This terrifying Sword Qi? Could it be that Sword Saint from Sakura Country? I heard he’s in our Dragon Country. Could it be him?”

“It’s really possible. Such Sword Qi, perhaps only he could do it.”

In the early morning classroom, Chu He’s figure appeared early.

He stretched, looked at the ground outside the window that had been washed by rain last night, and then placed his phone face down on the desk.

“It seems the ancient martial arts in this world are really not good.”

Chu He yawned, unsure if it was because he hadn’t slept all night, or for some other reason.

Just then, a fragrant breeze entered his nostrils. Chu He looked up in surprise.

He saw a breakfast bag placed in front of him.

“Chu He, I accidentally bought too much breakfast. Can you help me finish these?”

Ren Qingqing, under the watchful eyes of everyone, handed the warm breakfast to Chu He, immediately attracting a group of envious gazes.

But what was even more shocking was, when did the class beauty become like this? To actually bring breakfast to that hooligan Chu He, everyone’s hearts were shattered at that moment.

That damned Chu He.

“Okay, thank you, beautiful lady, for the breakfast. Huh? You changed your style?”

Chu He stared at Ren Qingqing, a little stunned, seemingly surprised.

Originally, Ren Qingqing’s skin was very fair and tender, her figure soft, and her slender waist was so delicate that it could be encircled with one hand. Her tight top perfectly outlined her full curves.

And what was most eye-catching was the black stockings wrapped around her legs. The black stockings were thin yet textured, revealing her fair, tender skin, clinging tightly to her straight, long legs, outlining the graceful lines of her legs.

Every part was just right, making her figure appear exquisite yet sexy.

“Does it look good?”

Ren Qingqing’s pretty face flushed crimson under his intense gaze, even her earlobes were red.

It was her first time trying this style, but seeing Chu He staring intently at her legs, it seemed to be quite good.

Ren Qingqing felt a little happy inside.

“It looks good.” Chu He gave a thumbs up, not expecting her to be such a contrast. She was a good girl before, and now she’s a long-legged girl in black stockings. Such a contrast is astonishingly beautiful.

But, is she wearing it for me?

Receiving the compliment, Ren Qingqing smiled very happily, but she seemed unable to bear Chu He’s aggressive gaze and finally ran away, feeling extremely shy.

Seeing this, Chu He chuckled.

Putting everything else aside, these legs are truly something to admire for ten years. They have flesh where they should, and are slender where they should be.

“It’s time! Time for a new round of card flipping!”

After reluctantly looking away, Chu He focused his thoughts on flipping cards. He did such a big thing yesterday, so it would be unreasonable not to get a gold today.

As the first card was flipped, a golden light suddenly appeared.

“Holy crap! A gold card…!”

#53Chapter 53 Chaos Divine Thunder Secret

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

The moment the golden light shimmered, Chu He became excited.

This was his second time getting a gold, and the first time he got a gold it was the Star Evolution Art. Chu He was very clear about its power, so what would this gold be?

Chu He suddenly let out a 'Holy moly!', attracting everyone's attention. They all looked at him strangely.

"What's so exciting about getting a gold? I got three golds yesterday."

"Is there something wrong with Chu He?"

"He's been like this for more than a day or two. Keep your voice down, don't let him hear you, or you'll be in for it."

"Chu He has been so quiet recently, he hasn't caused any trouble at school."

Amidst the crowd, a pair of bright, beautiful eyes silently watched Chu He. The owner of those eyes was Ren Qingqing.

Listening to the surrounding people's evaluations of Chu He, she felt a little uncomfortable. He was clearly a very good person; had everyone misunderstood him too deeply?

Chu He had no interest in them; his heart was currently on the cards.

"My goodness, it's a Spell, and a Thunder Spell at that!"

"Chaotic Divine Thunder True Art (Gold): Can condense the power of thunder, destroying all things in the world. When Cultivated to Major Achievement, one enters Chaos, and all Thunder Spells in the world can be controlled."

After reading the introduction, Chu He knew this was a very powerful Thunder-elemental Spell.

He only had the Star Evolution Art on him and no other offensive Spells, so this Chaotic Divine Thunder True Art came at just the right time.

Thunder Spells, who among Cultivators doesn't like them?

Once he Cultivated it, he could conjure divine thunder with his bare hands. Just thinking about it felt awesome!

However, this was only the first one today, and Chu He was not in a hurry to choose. What if there was another gold?

Unfortunately, except for the first one being gold, the other four were three white and one blue.

The blue one was a healing Medicinal Pill. As long as one had a breath left, it could restore them to their original state. It was useless to Chu He at the moment, so he directly gave up on it.

The other three white ones were all ordinary items, either money or some skill proficiencies, not even in the same league as the Chaotic Divine Thunder True Art.

"My luck is really good today."

Chu He grinningly chose the Chaotic Divine Thunder True Art. In an instant, a massive golden rune merged into his mind.

"Cultivate, Cultivate."

What's the first thing to do after getting a new Cultivation Technique? Of course, it's to Cultivate! Chu He was already eager to control the power of thunder.

Chu He got up and ran off in a flash.

"Strange, why is he going out at this time?" Ren Qingqing looked at Chu He with some surprise, but she didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, it was normal for Chu He to leave early.

She would just ask him out after class at noon.

Ren Qingqing seemed to be looking forward to noon very much. During class, she was somewhat absent-minded, and the teacher called her several times without a response.

The few girls next to her looked at her, wondering, how come after seeing her and Chu He sneak out last time, Ren Qingqing seemed to have changed completely, absent-minded all day, as if her soul had been taken away?

If Chu He wasn't a hooligan, they might have pursued him too, but unfortunately... he was an unreasonable hooligan. No matter how handsome he was, it was useless.

Boom!

The dazed Ren Qingqing was suddenly startled by a peal of thunder. She looked up outside, only to find that the previously blue sky was now gloomy, even overcast with dark clouds and flashes of lightning.

The sudden change in weather surprised everyone.

"What does this ghostly weather in the Imperial Capital want? The sky is dark so early in the morning."

"Damn it, it's not going to rain heavily again, is it? Yesterday's rain almost flooded the first floor of the dormitory!"

"Don't even mention it, my shorts that were hanging outside yesterday flew away. I don't know where they went, and I spent a fortune of nine yuan and ninety cents to buy four more pairs."

"Damn it? Nine yuan ninety cents for four pairs? Brother, send me the link!"

The sky was overcast, and lightning suddenly flashed, the sound was extremely violent, making people suspect if some scumbag was making an oath.

"Chu He should be fine, right?"

Looking at the rampant lightning outside, Ren Qingqing was a little worried about Chu He's safety. The weather changed not long after he left, and she didn't know if he was safe.

It was her first time seeing such heavy thunder, and she was a little terrified. The scene was like the end of the world.

...

"Nine Heavens Thunder Domain, with my body as the guide, come, Thunder!"

On the rooftop, Chu He sat cross-legged, muttering incantations, his gaze fixed on the thunderclouds above his head, which were as violent as a Thunder Dragon.

Gusts of wind blew, making his clothes flutter wildly, but there was no fear in his eyes, only extreme excitement.

After activating the Thunder Spell, the Imperial Capital's sky and earth changed dramatically. Thunder roared above the Nine Heavens, shaking people's souls.

The Chaotic Divine Thunder True Art Cultivates with thunder to temper one's body.

Chu He activated the divine thunder of heaven and earth solely for his own Cultivation of the Thunder Art.

Seeing that it was almost time, Chu He drew down the thunder to aid his Cultivation.

As time passed, the thunder above the sky grew more intense. Thunderbolts as thick as buckets struck down one after another, leaving the rooftop unrecognizable.

Chu He had already entered a state at this moment, electric arcs flashing on the surface of his body. He moved without wind, frantically absorbing the essence of the thunder and comprehending the Thunder Spell.

"It's done!"

Chu He suddenly opened his eyes, and endless thunder spilled out, sweeping across the eight directions. The entire rooftop was like a thunder pool.

"Am I a Cultivation Genius?"

Chu He was surprised in his heart, looking at the surrounding situation. He didn't expect that in just a few hours, he had comprehended the Thunder Spell and Cultivated the Chaotic Divine Thunder True Art to the introductory stage.

Looking at the electric arcs condensed in his hand, Chu He knew that even this tiny bit in his hand could instantly cause death.

"Just right to try out the Thunder Spell I just learned."

Chu He looked at the thunderclouds that had not yet receded, and an idea suddenly formed in his mind. He raised his hand and instantly controlled the thunder of the sky. At his command, a several-meter-thick thunderbolt descended from the sky in an instant, striking an unmanned mountain not far away.

In an instant, the entire mountain exploded directly, and gravel flew everywhere.

And when nearby residents saw the mountain explode, they were almost scared to death, fearing that the next thunderbolt would strike their own houses.

"Damn... this power is too terrifying."

Chu He looked at his palm in shock. This was only the introductory stage! To have such great power, if he Cultivated it to Major Achievement, wouldn't it destroy heaven and earth?

The Chaotic Divine Thunder True Art can not only control thunder but also condense thunder itself, its power is unimaginable.

With this Thunder Spell by his side, who in this world could be his opponent?

If he didn't like someone, he could directly transform into the Thunder and Lightning Law King and electrocute them.

As Chu He stopped operating, the anomaly in the city sky slowly receded, and in the blink of an eye, it returned to normal. The dazzling sunlight instantly shot out from the clouds, illuminating the entire land.

After checking the time, Chu He didn't plan to return to the classroom either, as class was almost over anyway.

Just as he was content and preparing to go downstairs, Tang Kun called him.

After connecting, Chu He was still a little strange, wondering where this person got his phone number. But when he heard Wang Cuicui's voice, he immediately understood.

The previous owner had already gotten involved with his sister-in-law and still kept her phone number. No wonder Wang Tianba blocked his door.

"What do you need by calling me?" Chu He asked, completely ignoring Wang Cuicui's coquettish voice.

"Chu Ge, you really are a busy man and forgetful! Didn't you say last time that you'd let me know when the recommendation was ready?"

"So you've already prepared everything?"

Chu He didn't expect Tang Kun to act so quickly. If he hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten.

"Alright, I'm coming over now..."

#54Chapter 54 I Have a New Big Brother

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

“How is it? Will Chu He come?”

“Give me the phone, I’ll talk to Chu Ge.”

On the other side, Wang Cuicui’s heart itched hearing Chu He’s voice. She snatched the phone from Tang Kun’s hand and spoke in a sweet, coquettish voice: “Chu Ge~”

Beep, beep, beep…

However, what she heard was the sound of the call being hung up. Wang Cuicui looked down, feeling a myocardial infarction. When did he hang up the phone?

Am I really that unwelcome?

Wang Cuicui had a bitter feeling she couldn’t express. Ever since that day, Chu He had changed like a different person. He had even said he would keep her company for life.

A man’s words are a devil’s lies. It’s too much.

Of course, those words were spoken by his predecessor, and the current Chu He is no longer the Chu He of that day.

“Hmph, Wang Cuicui, you should just give up. Chu Ge doesn’t fancy a rotten good-for-nothing like you. Save your breath!”

“I’m not going to waste any more words with you. I need to go down and tell them. Chu Ge will be here soon.”

Leaving that remark, Tang Kun departed.

Today is the Black Dragon Gang’s most important day. All the high-ranking members are gathered. He must ensure Chu Ge becomes the leader. If anyone dares to disobey…

A murderous glint flashed in Tang Kun’s eyes. He wouldn’t mind eliminating anyone who opposed him.

Although he felt a bit displeased himself, logically, with the leader dead, he, as the second-in-command, should have taken over.

But unfortunately, his life was now in Chu He’s hands. If he didn’t obey, he would die, so he could only accept his fate.

The most urgent task was to make Chu He the leader of the Black Dragon Gang.

On the other side, Chu He, who had just left school, ran into Ren Qingqing, who had just finished class.

“Chu He, where are you going?” Ren Qingqing asked.

“I have something urgent.” Chu He replied.

“Then you should go take care of it first.” Ren Qingqing originally wanted to say something, but seeing that Chu He had something to deal with, she swallowed her words.

“Alright, I’ll treat you to a meal another day.”

Chu He left that remark and then departed directly.

“Is he that busy?” Ren Qingqing felt a bit down. She had originally wanted to invite Chu He to watch a movie today, but it seemed impossible now.

However, hearing that he would treat her to a meal another day, Ren Qingqing’s low spirits suddenly lifted, and she seemed to eagerly anticipate that day’s arrival.

She didn’t know why she was so ha

#55Chapter 55: Killing the chicken to scare the monkey, taking control of the Black Dragon Gang

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

“What’s going on?!”

The fall of yet another hall master startled everyone present.

Especially since his death was extremely bizarre, his chest exploding into a spray of blood, which was quite shocking.

What happened?

How did he suddenly die?

Everyone stared dumbfounded at the arriving Chu He, because his hand was floating in the air. Was it him?

“True Qi materialized, killing with a finger. Chu Ge, are you an Earth Rank Martial Artist?”

Tang Kun was shocked. He understood that Chu He had made his move.

When Chu He killed Wang Tianba earlier, Tang Kun was already extremely shocked. Such a method was clearly only something an Earth Rank Martial Artist could possess. As for why he could control fire, Tang Kun didn't know.

But more than that, he was afraid, because Chu He killed without batting an eye, striking whenever he pleased.

“What? An Earth Rank Martial Artist?”

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other hall masters turned incredibly astonished as they looked at Chu He, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

Having reached their current positions, they had naturally encountered Martial Artists before. After all, the leader of the Heaven and Earth Society was also a Martial Artist, who had always suppressed their Black Dragon Gang with his martial might.

And this young man in front of them was a Martial Artist, and an Earth Rank Martial Artist at that! One should know that the Heaven and Earth Society’s leader was only Yellow Rank!

Chu He offered no explanation, letting them think whatever they wanted. He had come today prepared to kill to make an example.

Because making the other members of the Black Dragon Gang submit wouldn't be easy; sometimes special methods were necessary.

Chu He ascended the platform with a cold expression. Tang Kun instinctively moved aside, his heart filled with an irrepressible excitement.

If he were to follow an Earth Rank Martial Artist, it didn't seem like such a bad idea...

Perhaps Chu Ge was even more than just Earth Rank.

The method Chu He used to control fire was still vivid in his mind. Chu Ge was probably an Immortal-like existence!

Glancing at Wang Cuicui, who was trembling in fear beside him, Chu He’s gaze swept over the hall masters below and said, “I presume you already know Tang Kun’s purpose in gathering you all here.”

“Submit or die.”

Chu He’s expression was stern, and his Qi radiated outwards, pressing down on everyone, making them gasp for breath.

He spoke no unnecessary words, only wanting to quickly take over the Black Dragon Gang.

After all, he also quite wanted to be the boss, and the Black Dragon Gang owned quite a few businesses. It would be a waste not to take them. As for managing the Gang, he could hand that over to Tang Kun and be a hands-off boss.

At this moment, everyone present was like an ant in his eyes.

Such a sharp gaze made Tang Kun's heart pound, trembling beside him, his inner self filled with dread. Chu Ge's aura was terrifying.

This feeling was unprecedented.

“I submit.”

Finally, one of the hall masters couldn't hold out and agreed.

This aura was too terrifying.

He felt like all the bones in his body were about to break.

“That’s more like it!” Tang Kun said with a smile.

Finally, under Chu He’s oppressive power, everyone bowed their heads. They understood that opposing a Martial Artist was like seeking death, especially when the opponent was a master among Martial Artists.

Although they all verbally agreed to Tang Kun’s proposal, they still harbored dissatisfaction in their hearts, as Chu He was always an outsider in their eyes.

Making them obey wouldn't be that easy.

“Damn that Tang Kun, how dare he betray us? Let’s just go along with them for now, and then we’ll make our plans after this is over.”

“It's ridiculous to make me acknowledge a former subordinate as my big brother.”

After the pressure was withdrawn, several hall masters breathed a sigh of relief, their gazes varied. Although they agreed on the surface, they harbored malicious intentions behind the scenes.

Looking at them, Chu He curled his lips into a smile.

It was very difficult to make these people, who had previously held high positions, submit to him. Chu He understood their little schemes perfectly.

“Since you all agree, then accept this!”

Several spiritual flames appeared in Chu He’s hand, rapidly entering the bodies of the hall masters and the other subordinates.

The scorching temperature vanished in an instant.

“What did you do to us?” Someone cried out in horror, their heart astonished as they watched Chu He suddenly conjure flames.

They could feel a ball of flame existing within their bodies.

“Do you really think I’d trust you old fogeys? Even if you agree verbally, who knows if you’ll go back on your word? But there’s no need to worry, this is just a small trick. As long as you don’t betray me, you’ll be fine.” Chu He said, casually folding his arms.

“What happens if we betray you?”

“Oh, Chu Ge, what are you saying? It’s our honor to have you as our big brother. How could we possibly betray you?”

The few of them quickly forced smiles, but one person still had a look of displeasure on his face.

Such a major upheaval made him extremely displeased. He had originally conspired with the two deceased hall masters for him to become the new leader, but never expected a wrench to be thrown into their plans, snatching the position away.

This kid is too arrogant. Does he really think I’ll listen to him?

You’ll see what’s coming to you later.

However, the person suddenly froze, realizing that Chu He’s gaze was fixed on him, even carrying a faint smile.

His heart was uneasy, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Then, Chu He smiled slightly, snapped his fingers in front of everyone, and explained to the person who had asked earlier: “Betrayal... will be like this.”

“Ah!!”

Suddenly, a scream came. The hall masters instantly turned to look at the displeased hall master from earlier, only to see him now engulfed in flames, the fiery crimson turning him into a fire human.

“Ah! It’s on fire, quickly put out the fire!”

Such a bizarre scene scared everyone, causing them to scatter and flee, not understanding how that hall master had inexplicably spontaneously combusted.

After the screams continued for a while, a charred corpse lay on the ground, its internal organs completely devoured by the raging flames, dead beyond dead.

“Damn it, no way…”

Tang Kun, standing by, was covered in cold sweat as he watched the hall master burned alive, his heart pounding.

He had seen Chu He snap his fingers, and immediately realized that the flames inside the body had ignited.

And he also had that spiritual flame within his own body.

Could Chu He make that spiritual flame explode at any time?

Gulp—

Thinking of this, Tang Kun swallowed his saliva in fear.

He even felt somewhat fortunate that he hadn't acted recklessly back then, otherwise, that would have been his fate.

However, his eyes held more fanaticism; Chu Ge was indeed an Immortal, only an Immortal could possess such methods.

A perfectly fine person being burned alive terrified everyone present.

At this moment, they all held their breath, looking up at Chu He in fear.

This person was simply a devil.

But everyone understood that Chu He was killing to make an example; if anyone betrayed him, their fate would be the same.

“Don’t worry, as long as you don’t betray me, you’ll be fine.”

Chu He casually patted Tang Kun’s shoulder. The latter’s body stiffened, almost wetting himself from fright, and he forced back his fear, saying, “Tang Kun vows to follow Chu Ge to the death, with no betrayal.”

“That’s good then.” Chu He said with a light chuckle.

“We vow to follow Big Brother Chu He to the death!”

“We vow to follow Big Brother to the death!”

Someone took the lead in expressing their loyalty, and the pale-faced, terrified crowd quickly echoed, their voices filling the entire hall.

Now, they had no choice but to agree. Everyone had been implanted with the spiritual flame, and their lives were controlled by Chu He.

They certainly didn't want to follow in the footsteps of that hall master…

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

“Congratulations, Chu Ge, congratulations, Chu Ge.”

Tang Kun initially thought it would be difficult to gain the approval of others, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.

However, this saved a lot of trouble. After instructing a few of his subordinates to dispose of the bodies on the ground, he immediately offered his congratulations.

“You did well.” Chu He nodded, looking at Tang Kun with appreciation.

Although this person was the second-in-command of the Black Dragon Gang, he was very efficient in his work and very decisive. Chu He had also seen Tang Kun shoot people earlier.

“Thank you for the compliment, Chu Ge, this is what I should do.” Tang Kun chuckled honestly; he needed to perform well in front of Chu Ge.

“I’m relieved to have you manage the Black Dragon Gang.” Chu He meaningfully patted his shoulder.

“Me manage the Black Dragon Gang?” Tang Kun was stunned, not understanding what Chu He meant.

“That’s right, from now on, all affairs of the Black Dragon Gang will be handled by you.”

“Me handle it? How can this be! What about you, Chu Ge?” Tang Kun’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said.

“Me? Have you forgotten that I’m still a student? I won’t stay in the Black Dragon Gang all the time. When I’m not here, of course, you’ll manage it. I believe your abilities won’t disappoint me.”

Hearing this, Tang Kun only then remembered that Chu He was still a student.

A student? What kind of student kills without batting an eye? Kills whenever he wants?

He had never seen such a ruthless student.

Could this be a test for me? Chu He is outwardly letting me manage the Black Dragon Gang, but is actually observing whether I am a capable person?

Tang Kun’s body trembled, and he became serious.

“Chu Ge, I, Tang Kun, will definitely not disappoint you. During your absence, I will manage the Black Dragon Gang well and not let you lose face.”

“Good, very good, I truly didn’t misjudge you.” Chu He nodded in satisfaction, although he didn't know if Tang Kun had misunderstood something.

But this was fine too, after all, he had no experience managing a Gang; he was only suited to be a hands-off boss, sitting back and collecting money.

Seeing Chu Ge value him so much, Tang Kun felt a little embarrassed, promising with a look of assurance.

“By the way, take me to Wang Tianba’s residence.” Chu He suddenly said.

“Yes!”

Tang Kun nodded and led Chu He to the place where Wang Tianba lived before he died.

A relatively secluded villa, whose high price could be discerned at a glance.

“This Wang Tianba certainly knows how to enjoy himself.”

Chu He clicked his tongue, looking at the luxurious villa. In this world, being in a Gang was so profitable; this small villa alone was worth at least tens of millions.

He came here today for no other reason than to scour the money Wang Tianba left behind. Given Wang Tianba's nature, he wouldn't deposit all his money in a bank card, but would hide it.

Wang Cuicui, familiar with the way, led Chu He and Tang Kun into the villa, clearly having been there many times.

Under Chu He’s explanation, Wang Cuicui led Chu He to Wang Tianba’s secret room where he hid money.

It truly surprised Chu He that Wang Tianba had even built a special secret room to hide money.

It was just a password-locked steel door, difficult to break without the password, but Chu He could also open it with brute force.

However, he didn't choose to do that. Instead, he looked at Wang Cuicui, who was wearing a trench coat beside him. Although he found it strange when she changed clothes, he didn't pay much attention and instead asked, “As his woman, you wouldn’t not know the password, right?”

“I know the password.”

Wang Cuicui nodded. She had secretly observed it a few times when she came here before and had already memorized the password. Due to Wang Tianba always watching, she didn't dare to open it randomly.

Just thinking about the money inside made her excited. She had been fortunate enough to see it a few times before, and it had greatly surprised her.

Just as Wang Cuicui was about to enter the password, she suddenly turned to look at Tang Kun and said with some dissatisfaction, “Why are you still here? Do you want to peek?”

“Uh… Then Chu Ge, I’ll go out first.” Tang Kun was a bit annoyed, but out of respect for Chu He, he still walked out.

“This bitch really thinks she’s the big sister?” Tang Kun closed the door and complained, waiting quietly outside.

“Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and open it?”

Chu He looked expressionlessly at the smug Wang Cuicui, who quickly opened the secret room door after hearing him.

Chu He was stunned when he saw the mountains of cash piled inside.

There were even many valuable antiques, collectibles, and a lot of gold.

“How much money did Wang Tianba hide?”

Chu He stared blankly at the room. The cash, gold, and collectibles amounted to at least over a hundred million. Did Gangs make so much money in this era? How much protection money did he collect?

“Chu Ge~”

Just then, a sweet voice came from behind Chu He, and he felt a soft touch on his back.

Turning his head, Chu He’s expression suddenly froze because Wang Cuicui had, at some point, taken off her trench coat, revealing her fair body, and her full slime was pressed tightly against his back.

Most importantly, beneath the trench coat was a three-point-line of intimate innerwear.

Wang Cuicui looked up at Chu He with affectionate eyes, her pretty face flushed with a hint of red, biting her lower lip tightly.

“What do you want to do?” Chu He looked up.

“Chu Ge, I want you…” Wang Cuicui licked her red lips, seductively clinging to Chu He.

Chu He: …

Wang Cuicui indeed had the assets, otherwise, his previous self wouldn't have been attracted to her, but compared to Leng Shuanghua, there was still a big gap.

If Leng Shuanghua was 98 points, then Wang Cuicui was 85 points.

“If you’re horny, deal with it yourself, don’t bother me.” Chu He pushed her away and walked into the secret room expressionlessly.

“You…”

Wang Cuicui sat on the ground, at a loss, looking at Chu He inside the secret room, feeling greatly defeated.

I’m like this, and you’re still thinking about money?

Am I really that unappealing to you?

Wang Cuicui looked at Chu He with a humiliated and angry expression, her gaze suddenly falling on the boss chair nearby. Her beautiful eyes darted, and an idea immediately formed in her mind.

I don’t believe you won’t be interested later.

After a thorough search, Chu He put some cash into a bag and walked out.

After all, there was too much cash, and he couldn't take it all with him. It seemed he would have to use another method.

As soon as he stepped out, Chu He heard a low sound. His gaze shifted to the right, only to see Wang Cuicui lying on the boss chair…

“You’re having quite a good time. After you’re done, remember to use your bank card to deposit all this money for me. I’ll come back for the rest later.”

“And don’t even think about taking it. Otherwise, you know the consequences.”

Leaving these words, Chu He walked away without looking back.

“Ha… ha? He just left?”

Wang Cuicui’s fingertips stiffened, and she was completely stunned.

She was breathing heavily but quickly turned completely red, stomping her feet in anger.

“This bastard, I’m like this, and he just looked and left?”

“Son of a bitch! Ah ah ah ah!!!”

Wang Cuicui almost fainted on the spot from anger, collapsing to the ground in despair, muttering non-stop, “He clearly loved me to death before, so why is he like this now?”

Soon, she mustered her courage again, and hope reignited in her eyes.

“No, I can’t give up like this. I don’t believe you’re truly not interested in me anymore, Chu He… Just wait for my fierce offensive! I, Wang Cuicui, will not give up this position of Big Sister.”

“I heard that young people now like black silk bunny girls, white silk nurses, teachers, and those role-playing outfits… Forget it, I’ll buy a set of everything. I don’t believe he won’t be tempted when he sees it…”

#57Chapter 57 Meeting with Leng's Father

AI Model: gemini-2.5-flash

After Chu He left, Wang Cuicui angrily opened a shopping app and bought a lot of clothes in one go…

After fiercely venting her dissatisfaction on her phone, she remembered Chu He's instructions before he left and turned towards the secret room.

In just one hour, with Wang Cuicui's actions and the Black Dragon Gang's channels, all the cash and gold in the secret room were converted into cash.

Soon, Chu He found himself burdened with a huge sum of money, all collected by Wang Tianba over the years, but now it had become someone else's wedding dress.

He wasn't afraid of the Black Dragon Gang betraying him, and he believed that from today's situation onwards, no one would dare to betray him, unless they didn't want to live.

Before Chu He left the Black Dragon Gang, he abolished the collection of protection fees.

Although Tang Kun didn't understand, he didn't dare to disobey and could only comply obediently.

Because tomorrow was a holiday, Chu He didn't go back to school for the afternoon classes but returned home.

He had barely settled down when he received a call from Leng Shuanghua.

"Your dad wants to invite me to dinner?"

Chu He was a bit surprised when he learned of Leng Shuanghua's purpose.

He hadn't met the Young Miss's father, but he had heard a lot about him, after all, he was the chairman of the Leng Corporation.

That was a company among the top 300 in the world, and Leng Zhenghua's net worth was currently in the hundreds of billions, yet he was inviting him to dinner?

Strange…

This couldn't help but remind him of Leng Shuanghua's previous words; could her father have found out what he did to Leng Shuanghua? Was he planning to sink him into the sea to feed the fish?

Leng Zhenghua doted on Leng Shuanghua dearly; after all, she was his only daughter, and her monthly living allowance was in the tens of millions. She got whatever she wanted… One could imagine her status in his heart.

"You're not really going to agree, are you?" Leng Shuanghua's voice came from the other end of the phone.

She had a bad feeling, probably guessing the purpose of her father inviting Chu He.

Although she didn't have the habit of bringing bodyguards, her father was worried about her safety and had arranged quite a few in the shadows, so he probably already knew about Chu He.

Given her father's personality, he would definitely look down on Chu He. Dinner was just a pretense; having a purpose was the real deal.

Did Dad discover something?!

Leng Shuanghua in the villa felt a faint unease.

"No, I absolutely cannot let him go."

Leng Shuanghua bit her fingertip and, holding the phone, said, "If you don't dare, this Young Miss won't force you."
