Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

Chapter 711: Willingly Surrender

The loud, deafening explosion had masked over Tai Yitan’s own voice!

“What… What is happening?!”

Everyone could not help but stare at Chen Xiaobei with their jaw dropped to the ground.

A powerful bolt of lightning shot out from the Wrath Bolt Ring that was in Chen’s palm.

The lightning spread out in a flash; like a dragon claw, and then it came together to form a huge lightning ball that was as tall as Chen Xiaobei himself!

Effortlessly, Chen Xiaobei lifted the ball of crackling sparks. The unstable form of its nature had sent a few lighting sparks around the vicinity, causing the space around him to gain static charge. The dirt on the ground, the sand, and even the trees had started to shake violently due to the static charge. It was as if Chen Xiaobei had summoned the manifestation of a storm itself! Chen Xiaobei stood there, with the ball of lightning resting on the palm of his hands, like a god of lightning.

If that was not the epitome of epicness, nothing would be.

“H-How is that possible…”

“That… Argh! Faction Leader Chen’s lightning bolt is brighter, louder, stronger… It’s completely superior! Beyond human capabilities!”

“What an amazing feat! Faction Leader Chen did not need the use of True Qi nor the use of other charms or magic! That’s a lightning that could only be wielded by a man in the Celestial Cultivation!”

“Celestial Cultivation? That’s just not possible. How could only achieve that level at such a young age? The entire Jianghu would be rattled just by that fact alone!”

“Either way, Leader Chen’s Lightning Summoning Skill is superior!”

“That’s right! Like a god!”

…

Hai Linbai and his ‘followers’ were left speechless. Neither one of them could accept the fact that Chen Xiaobei was the superior one amongst them. After all, they were making fun of Chen Xiaobei just a few minutes ago! After witnessing Chen’s ability, Hai Linbai and the rest that were with him had a 180-degree change of attitude towards Chen. From teasing and mocking, they were now in fear and in awe. The worst part was that they know that Chen Xiaobei would still remember of the scorn they had towards him. With that thought in mind, their hearts skipped a beat, fearing that Chen Xiaobei might want to enact revenge.

“Woah… I never knew that sifu was ever that strong!”

Feng Qingyang, stood there, spellbound as he muttered, “Those lightning bolts… they are not the same as the one in the sky! It is much more violent… stronger than any lightning storm! To think that sifu could conjure lightning out of thin air… What an amazing person sifu is…”

“Next! We shall witness how Tai Yitan performs!”

All eyes turned towards the man called Tai Yitan. Now that everyone has seen what Chen Xiaobei was capable of, it was time for Tai Yitan to prove he was the better man.

The anticipation in the air grew stronger as the audience grew anxious to see their young master from Miaojiang react to the situation.

“I… I uhm…”

Being the target of the concentrated glare, Tai Yitan sighed loudly.

“I give up!”

After uttering the three disappointing words, he dispelled the lightning in his hands and hung his head in shame.

“Did I hear it wrong? Did he just say he gave up?”

Everyone gasped in shock.

“How could this be?! Tai Yitan, the number one genius in all of China, giving up?! It is the Divine Lightning against a Lightning Summoning Skill! How could Tai Yitan lose?!”

“Earlier, Tai Yitan’s dominant presence could put everyone in shock. Considering that his aura was so powerful, how was it possible that he could not come up with the courage to face Chen Xiaobei’s attack?”

“Oh man… This is too awkward to watch. Leader Chen Xiaobei had agreed to have face-off with Tai Yitan! Looks like Tai Yitan gave up even before he took one hit!”

“Wait. Let’s not jump to conclusions that quickly. Tai Yitan’s Divine Lightning could kill every single person right here! However, Faction Leader Chen’s lightning was far stronger than his! It could be disastrous!”

“That must be it!”

…

Everyone threw their own speculation into the pot. Despite having different opinions, they all shared one similarity; Tai Yitan was strong but Chen Xiaobei was stronger!

There was no other option for Tai Yitan Yitan besides giving up. However, being the man he was, Tai Yitan did not put up a scene. He did not give any excuse for his failure nor did he tried to scheme a comeback. The man accepted his failure with dignity and stood tall.

That sort of willingness to accept one’s defeat was rare and was much better than those people who put on a fake smile and plot for revenge. Be it person or a ghost, Chen Xiaobei had the ability to see into someone clearly. As such, Chen Xiaobei had no plans to seek further actions against Tai Yitan.

However!

The other two guys… Those two must be punished!

Chen Xiaobei grinned and dispelled the lightning that was in his hands. He then turned to Teng Niu and said, “Hey big guy, you still think I’m faking it?”

“Wha- No! No no no no no no no! You’ve misheard me! It’s not faking cool! It’s freaking cool!”

Teng Niu immediately shook his head nervously as he tried to deny and cover up his mistake. The young master of his faction had given up, what more could he do?

“What do you have to say about this match? What can you say? Except for fake flattery?” said Chen Xiaobei.

“No… No…” Teng Niu continued to shake his head in denial. “Faction Leader Chen’s lightning skill is the best! It’s the truth! The master amongst masters! It’s a privilege to have you contesting with my young master…”

“Hohoho… Your attitude seems to be improving. Alright. I’m in a good mood now. We are no longer in any disagreement.”

“Thank you! Thank you! Leader Chen’s lesson will be remembered for the rest of my life!” Teng Niu nodded his head as he thanked Chen. The thing was his face was practically glowing with red underneath his cloak. The kind of red when one eats the world’s hottest chili!

Chen Xiaobei turned away from him and walked towards Hai Linbai.

The crowd of people immediately shrunk to a corner; like a tiger cornering a mouse.

“Are you Hai Linbai, the man who was ranked 9th in the previous Heroes of War Leaderboard?” asked Chen Xiaobei coolly.

“Ahh. I’m nothing as the name implies. Leader Chen Xiaobei, you may just address this lowly man as Little Hai,” said Hai Linbai like a grandson to his grandfather.

Even if there were hundreds of followers, Hai Linbai would not dare to put on a tough act in front of Chen. From Chen’s perspective, the man was nothing but a joke.

“Is that right. Little Hai was it? My car… from the factory… You ordered someone to stage a crash, didn’t you?” Chen Xiaobei interrogated.

“… Yes… Little Hai is wrong… Little Hai will now make it right!”

With sweat dripping down from his forehead, Hai Linbai pulled out his cellphone and made a call.

“Faction Leader Chen! It is done! Little Hai will guarantee you that the road will never have a traffic!” said Hai Linbai after he was done with his cellphone.

“Is that right? Well… Since it is done, I’ll won’t think much about. However—!” said Chen.

Hai Linbai was only about to relax when all his muscle tensed up again.

“I seemingly recalled something back there. You and your lot was mocking me. I cannot allow that to pass. What do you think I should do?” said Chen, toneless.

“Erhm…”

Hai Linbai started to tremble. Blood was drained from his face as he asked with his voice shaking violently, “Shall I have my men and I to slap ourselves?”

Chen Xiaobei immediately grinned and said, “Oh! You would do that? Well, here I am thinking that you all should just apologize. But, since you insist on doing that, please do so! Don’t forget to make it sincere. I don’t like dishonest men.”

Chen Xiaobei shrugged then and crossed his arms, waiting for Hai Linbai to execute his own punishment.

At that moment, when Hai Linbai turned around to face his own men, they were all frowning and some had even cried! Why would Hai Linbai offer a punishment like that?

However, what had been said cannot be retracted. Without delay, they started to raise their own hand and slapped themselves across the face. As they did, they were scolding, and even cursing their own stupid self for even trying to belittle Chen Xiaobei!

Ding!

At that moment, Chen’s cell phone rang! It was a notification from the Red Envelope Group!

Chapter 712: I Will Take Full Responsibility

“You guys can leave if there is nothing else for you to do here!”

After looking at his cell phone, Chen Xiaobei realized that there were a lot of group members tagging his name in the group chat. Feeling curious, Chen Xiaobei brought Feng Qingyang back to the faction immediately. Meanwhile, there was nothing Tai Yitan could do to defeat Chen Xiaobei. Hence, he bought his people left the place as well. Lastly, Hai Linbai carried the heavily injured Tang Yunshan and rushed to the nearest hospital.

Upon returning to Bei Xuan Faction, Chen Xiaobei tapped into the Red Envelope chat group promptly.

Yanwang: @Chen Xiaobei! Come out now! Representing the food hunter association, I hereby summon God Chen!

Zhu Bajie: @Chen Xiaobei! Where are you! Come online now! I want to try the delicacy that you gave to Monkey King!

Shennong: God Chen! Come online! I heard that delicacy was decorated with golden stuff! I’m literally salivating over it!

Bull Demon King: Come online now! God Chen! I’m losing my mind soon! I want to have a taste of it now!

“Damn! This bunch of foodies really live up to their reputation!”

For Yanwang, he was crazy about the spicy sticks.

For Zhubajie, other than being a pervert, he could die for good anytime!

For Shennong, he went crazy over spicy sticks after he had a taste of it.

For Bull Demon King, he did not go crazy over good food. However, thanks to Monkey King’s favor of promoting the delicacy, Bull Demon King was now in love with the tiramisu.

“The mysterious food that was garnished with gold flakes that I sent to Monkey King earlier was the tiramisu that I acquire on Paradise Island! My bro, Monkey King is too damn reliable! I’m glad that he helped me promote this food after he stomached it! Now, I can use the tiramisu to exchange for a few Red Envelopes!” said Chen Xiaobei with a grin on his face.

Chen Xiaobei then entered the chat group.

Chen Xiaobei: Recently, I discovered a new delicacy called golden tiramisu!

Yanwang: Such a weird name…

Zhu Bajie: The name is not important! I want to have a taste of it right now!

Shennong: Quick! Quick! Quick! I can’t wait any longer!

Bull Demon King: What a bunch of thick-skinned fellas! Do you guys really think that God Chen could create all those delicacies out of nothing? You guys have to give him something good if you want to have a taste of that legendary delicacy!

Zhu Bajie: No… No problem! Of course, we won’t take it for free!

Shennong: That’s right! We are more than willing to give something to God Chen in return! Something good!”

“Damn! Bull Demon King is the real bro! I didn’t even ask for something in return! I can’t believe that he took the initiative to do it for me! He is really quite a good guy! Bull Demon King and Monkey King are good brothers! I guess Monkey King did me a favor by asking Bull Demon King to make sure that no one would take me for granted!”

Bull Demon King: God Chen! Everyone made it clear that they would give you something in return! Tell us now! What do you want?”

Chen Xiaobei: Haha. You guys are too nice! If that’s the case, I would like to have some Spiritual Water from Zhu Bajie! As for Yanwang, I would like you to help me to upgrade my Netherspirit Battlescouter! And for Shennong…

Jiang Ziya: Hold on right there!

“F*ck! Why is he here? Something bad is going to happen to me soon!”

Jiang Ziya: Earlier, the Primeval Lord of Heaven mentioned that items from heavenly realm are not allowed to be sent to the human realm! This is to maintain the balance of the human realm! Have all of you forgotten about that?

Zhu Bajie: No… We still remember that… How can we forget about that… We will definitely follow the order gave out by the Primeval Lord of Heaven!

Jiang Ziya: Okay! Good! The human realm is a fragile place! Items from the heavenly realm are powerful enough to turn that place into a hell hole! Who is going to bear the consequences if the human realm is destroyed!

Shennong: That’s right! Jiang Ziya is right! We are just joking! Trust me, we are not going to send him any Red Envelope!

Jiang Ziya: The Primeval Lord of Heaven is not trying to make it difficult for all of you! If there is something big happening in the group, feel free to flood the group with Red Envelopes. One’s luck will determine the number of Red Envelope one can acquire!

Zhu Bajie: This is great! Primordial Lord of Heaven is really wise!

Jiang Ziya: Of course! If God Chen is willing to use his merit points to pay for the items from the heavenly realm, that is actually fine by me and Primordial Lord of Heaven! From here, you can see that the Primordial Lord of Heaven had granted you special treatment! It is unprecedented!

“Tsk! Clearly, the Primordial Lord of Heaven is trying to make my life difficult! He should feel embarrassed for saying something like that! I have never seen someone with such a thick face!”

It was after all a dirty trick. Initially, Chen Xiaobei could use a few pieces of cake to exchange for Red Envelopes. Seconds later, Jiang Ziya came into the group and interrupted his plan. If merit points were the only way to acquire Red Envelopes, he would need tons of merit point to get what he wanted.

“Back to serious business! I know how to deal with your evil plan! Last time, I use spicy sticks to exchange for God’s Eyes Talisman! I can just ask them to send me a personal package! And there is nothing you can do about it!”

Ding!

Jiang Ziya: @Chen Xiaobei. Shidi, I have something to inform you!

Chen Xiaobei: What kind of thing?

Jiang Ziya: According to the Red Envelope record, @Qianli Yan sent you a God’s Eyes Talisman three days ago!

“Shit! He found out about it! My idea is not going to work anymore!”

Jiang Ziya: Other than that, I have the Book of Merit Points with me! I can see that Qianli Yan’s merit point did not increase after he gave you the God’s Eyes Talisman! What he did had already violated the law of heaven! After discussing with Jade Emperor, we have decided to demote him! He will serve as a good example for all the deities in heaven!

Chen Xiaobei: What? Qianli Yan was demoted?

Jiang Ziya: Calm down. Considering that you are the disciple of the Prime of Tongtian, I will not punish you. Still, I hope that you will never do such a thing again! If not, you are going to bring trouble to others!

“F*ck! This f*cking bitch! All these dirty tricks! Considering that he knew about it some time ago, now, he just did it on purpose to embarrass me in the group! And he chose to punish Qianli Yan but not me! He wants all the group members to think that I took advantage of my special position to bring trouble to others! Other than embarrassing me, he criticized my sifu for being biased – siding with me but not others! I can’t take it anymore!”

Chen Xiaonei: Regarding this matter, I’m the one that asked Qianli Yan to do it for me! He is not wrong! I’m the one that broke the law of heaven!

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Chen, you are an adult now. You should think before you talk! By taking all the blame, you are going to be punished severely! Have you thought about that?

Chen Xiaobei: I will take all the consequences! I, Chen Xiaobei, am a real man!

Jiang Ziya: Haha! As the disciple of the Prime of Tongtian, you are pretty daring! If you are willing to take the blame, we will recover Qian Liyan’s position in heaven! However, I have to remind you that you are not going to like the punishment!

Chen Xiaobei: Just spill it!

Jiang Ziya: I’m going to use the Book of Merit Points to remove all your merit points! Are you sure you want to take this punishment?

Chen Xiaobei: Just do it! I will not take back my words! Sooner or later, you will pay me double the merit points that you have taken away from me!

Chapter 713: The Bits and Pieces of the Foreworld

Jiang Ziya: What? You want me to pay you double? You are really good at daydreaming!

Jiang Ziya: I’m representing the Primordial Lord of Heaven to make sure everyone obeys the law! The law is fair and the decree from the Primordial of Heaven is absolute! Once the punishment is set in stone, making any changes to it is simply impossible. If not, simply changing the rule is basically equivalent to slapping the face of Primordial Lord of Heaven!

Upon listening to that, most of the group members could not help but begin to talk Chen Xioabei out of it.

Yanwang: God Chen! You have to think about it carefully! This time, Primordial Lord of Heaven is the one that gave the decree! No one else can do anything about it once his decree is executed!

Xiao Tianquan: That’s right! God Chen! It’s not an easy task to earn all those merit points. It’s not a good feeling when all your hard-earned merit points are gone!

Chang’e: Though the law was broken, it’s not entirely your fault! Punishment like this is just too severe for one to bear!

Chen Xiaobei: You guys can stop trying to talk me out of it. I have made up my mind. If this is the rule set by the Primordial Lord of Heaven, it is only fair for me to be punished since I’m the one that broke it! Qianli Yan was involved in this trouble because he did this to help me! Watching him being punished makes me feel really bad!

Jiang Ziya: Since you have made up your mind, I’m going to use the Book of Merit Points to remove all your merit points.

Ding!

[Divine Punishment! 108,000,0 merit points had been deducted from you. Current merit points: 0 (Charm: 0. Luck: 0)

Within seconds, all of Chen Xiaobei’s merit points turned to naught. One could see that Jiang Ziya was pleased that he finally got to punish Chen Xiaobei. By now, there must a grin on Jiang Ziya’s face. Perhaps even the Primordial Lord of Heaven was laughing at Chen Xiaobei’s misfortune as well.

Earlier, Chen Xiaobei had landed slaps upon slaps on Chanism’s face. It was only natural for them to feel happy about it when they managed to make Chen Xiaobei pay for what he did to them! To their surprise, Chen Xiaobei was not affected by this punishment. This was not the first time his merit points were deducted to zero. Considering that he had grown so much, his emotions were very stable.

“This is only temporary! Though Primordial Lord of Heaven is a saint, the thing that he did to me is not right! He who is unjust will be doomed to destruction! The reason he set a rule like this is for his own revenge! Someday, he will definitely pay for what he did to me!”

Jiang Ziya: @Chen Xiaobei, I have removed all your merit points since you are willing to take the blame! Qianli Yan’s position in heaven will be restored immediately! With that, I hope everyone will see this as a good example and never attempt to break any laws!

Monkey King: My Xiaobei Brother is a true man! It’s not easy to accept such severe punishment willingly! You deserve all the compliments in this world!

Mengpo: That’s right! I admire him for taking up the responsibility! Good one!

Little White Dragon: God Chen deserves to be called the disciple of the Prime of Tongtian! Heroic! Dominating! I have to give him a like!

Wei Xiaobao: Support God Chen!

Princess Iron Fan: Support God Chen!

All of a sudden, a lot of group members stepped up to support Chen Xioabei. Clearly, everyone knew what was actually going on. Though they were required to obey the Primordial Lord of Heaven’s decree, the truth would not stop them from supporting Chen Xiaobei.

“People know that I did not make any mistake! Although I was punished severely, I have managed to make everyone side with me! Maybe I will be able to score something huge if any unforeseen circumstances happen to me!

Ding!

Monkey King: Brother! Don’t be sad! You did well in this matter! I believe there is still justice! Just wait for the right time! Now, you have received something that is more important than merit points – respect and trust from us! You still have a long way to go! Do not mind this temporary lost!

Chen Xiaobei: Haha! Brother! You don’t have to console me! We share the exact same thoughts! Actually, I’m not even upset!

Monkey King: You are worthy to be called the disciple of the Prime of Tongtian! Such an open heart! Considering that matter like this does not affect you at all, I’m pretty sure your future is as bright as the sun in the sky!

Chen Xiaobei: Stop praising me! I’m literally blushing right now! Let’s change the topic!

Monkey King: What do you want to talk about?

Chen Xiaobei: I’m going to return the Jingu Bang to you first! There’s no way I can use it anyway!

After sending this message, Chen Xiaobei sent the Jingu Bang back to Monkey King.

Monkey King: Got it! Just ask from me if you need it again in the future! You have Sister Nuwo watching your back. So, Jiang Ziya shouldn’t be your concern!

Chen Xiaobei: Understood! Speaking of Jiang Ziya, where is that dog, Lei Zhenzi?

Normally, Lei Zhenzi would add on to all those harsh words that Jiang Ziya used to insult Chen Xiaobei. Noticing that Lei Zhenzi was not here, Chen Xiaobei was actually not used to it.

Monkey King: Lei Zhenzi? That guy went to play as a hero!

Chen Xiaobei: A hero? What is going on?

Monkey King: Two days ago, an assignment was given to all the deities in the heavenly realm! A lot of deities took the assignment and traveled to the Void to hunt down all those demonic creatures! By doing that, they will be award with some rewards!

Chen Xiaobei: He is really trying really hard to act like a hero!

Monkey King: That’s right! I wouldn’t have let him act like a hero if I didn’t lend the Jingu Bang to you!

Chen Xiaobei: Oh right! Brother! This place, the Void, what is this place actually? My Sifu went there quite some ago. Until now, he has still not returned!

Monkey King: It all starts from when Pan Gu created heaven and earth! After he created heaven and earth, his flesh turned into the foreworld land! It was really wide and there was no end to it! After that, the first calamity happened! Dragon, phoenix, and kirin fought among each other! And Rahu was like a vulture – waiting to get something good off them. He wanted to be a saint but the first Daoist, Hong Diao did not allow him to do so! With hatred slowly accumulating in his heart, he drained hundreds and thousands of pools of Spiritual Qi from the west side of the world to attempt to defeat the first Daoist. In the end, he was killed by Diao Hong!

Monkey King: That particular calamity lasted for quite a long time! It was really bad! Because of Rahu’s irresponsible behavior, the foundation of the foreworld was deeply hurt. After that, the second calamity happened! The battle between the witch tribe and the monster tribe! The Divine Pillar finally crumbled! There were ruptures formed on heaven and earth! Although Sister Nuwo managed to come in time to fix the rupture, the foundation of the foreworld was still beyond fixing!

Monkey King: Then, during the calamity, Jieism and Chanism were fighting among each other! The Prime of Tongtian setup his Godkiller Formation to attack the Four Saints! The members of Jieism setup a Thousand Gods Formation to deal with Godkiller Formation! The destructive power of this war was far bigger than the two previous calamities!

Monkey King: In the end, the foreworld could not take those kinds of damages anymore and it collapsed! It became the space that we know of today!

Chen Xiaobei: Are you trying to say that space is the by-product of the foreworld and Earth is just a small piece of it?

Monkey King: That’s right! Everything in space was once used to be part of the foreworld!

Chen Xiaobei: In other words, there are actually other living beings living on a different planet!

Monkey King: There is! But, it’s really far from Earth! It is impossible for you to cross paths with them!

Chen Xiaobei: How about the underworld and heavenly realms? Are these two realms within the space?

Chapter 714: The Prime of Tongtian’s Calculation

Monkey King: The Heaven and Earth Interdimensional Realm is within the region of space but it is above the level of Earth!

Chen Xiaobei: What about the actual coordinate?

Monkey King: After the third catastrophe, the first Daoist opened up the Thirty-Three Heavens with the largest four fragments in space and used them to create a square piece of land.

Monkey King: You have the Heavenly Realm, the Human Realm, the Underworld Realm, and the Heaven and Earth Interdimensional Realm, which is the fourth realm! It is the only realm that allows you to travel between the three realms!

Chen Xiaobei: So… If I understand what you are saying, that means you could take that route to reach the human realm!

Monkey King: Hold your horses there. Deities are strong. So strong that they could destroy the stars and swallow the sun! If the deities have the freedom to descend to the human realm, Earth would have been destroyed long ago!

Monkey King: To protect humanity, the first Daoist Hong Diao sealed the pathway. Only special occasions allow a deity to descend to the human realm. For example, when a deity is tasked with a mission.

Chen Xiaobei: I see… Question. Is there anyone in the human realm that has risen to the heavens?

Monkey King: Ah! There is! When your own strength has reached a point when you could destroy the stars, the Divine Retribution will automatically be triggered. As long as you can survive that trial, you will have access to the Door of Longevity and gain the status of a deity!

Chen Xiaobei: That’s just incredible! The power to destroy stars! Swallow the sun?! What an unbelievable strength!

Monkey King: Haha, earth to brother Chen, please come back to reality! That a dream that is too far from your own goal. Let’s get back to the main topic.

Chen Xiaobei: Right. After talking for so long, I still have no idea what is up with the Void!

Monkey King: The Void is a special place on Earth. It existed even during the first calamity! Legend has it that the end of the Void was connected to the Demon Realm, where Rahu’s tribe lived.

Chen: Rahu? Is he the one that was adamant and blatantly saying he wanted to kill the first Daoist?

Monkey King: Yes. That’s him! The saints predicted that in this calamity, Rahu’s tribe will be making a comeback. That is why, not just the Prime of Tongtian, but all of the other saints will be going to the edge of the Void to seal the path that is connected to the Demon Realm!

Monkey King: Once the sealing is done, it will prevent the coming of a disaster. When the time comes, the Divine Retribution would grant countless merit points! Even the saints themselves would be fighting for that!

Chen Xiaobei: I see. I still have some questions though. Last time, when my sifu came back from the Void, he gave me a divine skill called the Primordial Witch King Combat Enhancement Training Manual! Is this coincidence? Does it have anything to do with the witch tribe? Or even the demon tribe?

Monkey King: Hard to tell. However, after the second calamity, the witch tribe fell and the survivors fled to the Void and lived there. However, there was no word that anyone had ever been to the edge of the Void.

Monkey King: Back when Lei Zhengzi and his merry friends went to finish their mission, it was only the surface of the Void. It was known that the Witch Tribe lived in the center of the Void. The Prime of Tongtian might have found the skill there when he discovered the trails of the witch tribe.

Chen Xiaobei: I understand now! Thank you so much. Ah. I wish my sifu could be back soon! I wonder what kind of present would he give me this time! ??

Monkey King: Urgh! I’m jealous! What a lucky guy to have the Prime of Tongtian as a sifu. The man is the most generous saint ever in existence! The present he gives out would be a bomb!

Chen Xiaobei: Oh man! You’ve said it! I’m getting excited by the minute!

Monkey King: I feel the same way as well! When the Prime of Tongtian comes back, tell him about the incident with Jiang Ziya! I’m sure he will do something to defend you!

Chen Xiaobei: You really think so? In that case, I’d really like sifu to stand up for me!

Monkey King: There’s just one thing. The Prime of Tongtian is in the Void. There’s just no way for you to communicate with him.

Chen Xiaobei: Hehe. Worry not. There’s a way. In fact, I’ll go now to talk to my sifu! I will have Jiang Ziya pay double of what he has done to me!

Monkey King: Yes! That’s the spirit! Off you go! I’ll wait here for your return to beat that pretty boy’s face!

Chen Xiaobei: Hehe, leave it to me! I won’t disappoint you!

Chen Xiaobei exited the chat group and headed to the training room.

To communicate with the Prime of Tongtian, Chen Xiaobei would require to train with the Scripture of Heaven and Earth until he reached a stable status. Coincidently, Chen Xiaobei needed to train to surpass his cultivation level. It was a perfect “two birds, one stone” situation.

Chen Xiaobei withdrew the green jade gourd and drank a mouthful of Spiritual Qi. With a clear mind, he started to train the skill and successfully begun to make a breakthrough. However, at that moment, he was still unable to link to the Prime of Tongtian just yet. There was still some time needed.

The training had Chen Xiaobei spend more than half a day which, in the meantime, the Prime of Tongtian would think of Chen Xiaobei. It was something that could cross his mind and was nothing to worry about. The training session was successful and Chen Xiaobei gained a steady increase in his cultivation.

In the early morning of the next day…

Chen Xiaobei proceeded to try and communicate with the Prime of Tongtian using the Divine Link.

“Xiaobei!”

A familiar voice rung in Chen Xiaobei’s head. In the next second, a silhouette formed slowly and materialized into a handsome Daoist! The man looked like he was 27 years old, with a handsome, dignified posture! His nose was held high and his lips were just the right thickness. Though an aura of freedom and playfulness emanated between his eyebrows; still the light of wisdom could be seen hiding behind his eyes.

“Sifu! You’re here!”

Chen Xiaobei was excited. As long as he could talk to the Prime of Tongtian, everything would be settled just right!

“Hmm. I have felt some changes in your destiny and have tried to communicate with you. What a coincidence that you are training your cultivation!” said the Prime of Tongtian calmly.

“Sifu is right! It’s Jiang Ziya! He has wronged me and had all my merit points reduced to zero…”

Chen Xiaobei then proceeded to explain the entire situation to the Prime of Tongtian.

With affirmation, the Prime of Tongtian replied, “I understand what you have done and I am extremely proud of you! You have brought great honor to my name! However, this grudge shall never go unreturned!”

“What does Sifu have in mind to help?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

“Simple,” said the Prime of Tongtiag casually.

“You see, it’s a mutual relationship. You needed the items from the Heavenly Realm. They, as in the deities in the Heavenly Realm would need to get something from your world! If you sever this relationship, there will only be a complete cut out on supplies!”

“Huh? I don’t understand. The deities needing something from me? That’s just impossible…”

Curious, Chen Xiaobei continued, “The things that I could procure, are daily items that could be found on Earth. It’s nothing important. It’s not something that I could use as leverage.”

“What you need to do now is to continue on your cultivation. If my prediction is right, soon, Jiang Ziya will approach… No. He will beg you for something!” said the Prime of Tongtian with confidence, as if he had everything under his control.

“Yes, Sifu! Your words give me nothing but assurance!” said Chen Xiaobei as he bowed to his sifu. He smiled happily knowing that his sifu would be true to his words.

When Chen Xiaobei raised his head, he saw the Prime of Tongtian looking puzzled.

“Xiaobei, the reason of your destiny being altered, is not because of Jiang Ziya! You might have peeked into the Divine Secret!”

“Huh? Divine Secret. I would never…”

Chen Xiaobei thought hard and could not recall he had ever done something of that sort. “It’s been a long time since I have used the Eight Diagram of Godly Prediction.”

“Think harder!”

Chen Xiaobei thought harder and realization struck.

“Sifu once said that the calamity is a Divine Secret. If one reveal it to other before the coming of this calamity, the person will be punished by Divine Punishment! I’ve heard everything that Monkey King has said!”

Chapter 715: Achieve True Nirvana Cultivation

“That’s right! During times like this, you have to be extra careful! The calamity that I told you about earlier might come anytime soon!”

“No way! If I’m about to face the calamity, what about my brother, Monkey King?”

“You don’t have to worry about Wukong. His sifu is Bodhi and Shimei Nuwo will look after him! Thousands of years ago, he messed up the entire heaven and he turned out fine in the end! Other than that, he didn’t reveal anything important in the upcoming calamity. He should be fine!”

“Important thing about the calamity? What could that be?” asked Chen Xiaobei in a curious manner.

“This is a Divine Secret! That is the reason that triggered all those three calamities! Now, you still have no idea what was the reason behind the wars!”

The first calamity was the war between the dragon, phoenix, and kirin!

The second calamity was the war between witch tribe and monster tribe!

The third calamity was the war between Jieism and Chanism!

The important thing that the Prime of Tongtian mentioned earlier was the reason why all these three wars were triggered! Despite his curiosity, Chen Xiaobei knew that this was not the right time for him to peek into it!

“You don’t have to think too much for now! What you should do right now is take good care of yourself! The calamity that you are going to face is not too serious nor light! However, if you don’t take it seriously, the consequences is simply unimaginable! However, if you can find the woman that is destined to be with you, all those dangers that you are about to face will be nullified!”

“Woman? Who is she?”

“Do you still remember the super-fated relationship that Moon Lord mentioned to you earlier?”

“Super-fated relationship? Sister Goddess? Of course, I remember that! However, I have no idea on where to look for her…”

The Moon Lord once mentioned that the lady was going to bring fortune to Chen Xiaobei. A super-fated relationship like that would only happen to one couple every few hundred years! Liu Bang and Lu Zhi was a good example. Once they got together, she and Liu Bang started their journey to rule the world! Upon finding the Sister Goddess, she would help Chen Xiaobei to survive the calamity. The problem was Chen Xiaobei did not know where to look for her.

“Moon Lord told you that you have to put in effort to look for her, right? You are lucky if you manage to locate her! Consider that you would be in grave danger if you fail to find her!”

“This…”

Chen Xiaobei was startled and at a loss in this matter. More than anyone else, his desire of looking this woman was really strong. However, looking for someone with no name among hundreds of millions of people was harder than ascending to heaven!

“Regarding this matter, you have to let it flow naturally! However, you have to speed up the process of looking for the other woman!”

“Sifu, are you talking about Su Daji?”

Some time ago, the Prime of Tongtian once told him through a dream that if he injected True Qi into her chest, a flaming red lotus would surface! Unfortunately, there was literally no hint to look for this woman. Looking for her was going to be a difficult task as well.

“That’s right! I’m talking about the reincarnated Su Daji! This woman goes way back with Nuwo! And she is destined to face some really special events in her life! She is going to be the one that guides you to a brand new path! The sooner you look for her, the greater the help she can offer you!”

“Understood! I will definitely not forget about this!”

“Alright. I shall let you carry on with your training! If nothing gets in my way, I should be back before Chinese New Year! By that time, I will give you something really special and I will be able to provide you with some guidance as well!”

After that, the image of the Prime of Tongtian started to fade off from Chen Xiaobei’s mind.

“I bid you farewell, Sifu!”

After sending of the Prime of Tongtian, Chen Xiaobei regained his focus and returned back to his meditation. Before he realized, a few hours had passed.

*Huu…*

Slowly, Chen Xiaobei exhaled a mouthful of white gas and it spread to a few meters away from him and lingered in the air for quite a long time.

Ding!

[Cultivation: Pinnacle phase of Qi refining stage. Health: 20,000. Combat power: 20,000!]

Upon receiving a notification from the Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei’s training finally came to an end!

“Huge success! Finally, I reached the cultivation that I desire for the longest time I can remember! Next, all I need to do achieve a great breakthrough!”

Following by that, Chen Xiaobei took out a Skybreaking Cultivation Pill from his treasure chest. The reason behind why Chen Xiaobei wanted to get to pinnacle phase of Qi refining stage as fast as possible was because the Skybreaking Cultivation Pill allowed him to achieve True Nirvana Stage within seconds! A lot of people in Jianghu were stuck in pinnacle phase of Qi refining stage for a very long time and they just could not figure out a way to advance their cultivation.

Countless people were stuck in the phase called Halfstep True Nirvana cultivation. Even a genius like Luo Puti was forced to stop at pinnacle phase of Qi refining stage for a very long time. However, with just a small piece of Skybreaking Cultivation Pill, Chen Xiaobei could get to True Nirvana Cultivation instantly!

No effort was needed!

No time was wasted!

This was going to be awesome!

“Break it!”

Immediately, Chen Xiaobei broke a small piece of Skybreaking Cultivation Pill and put it into his mouth. Immediately, the effect of the pill took place! It began to strengthen his Dantian and transformed his body into True Nirvana form! With his combat power being increased tremendously, he would achieve True Nirvana cultivation in no time!

Ding!

[Cultivation: True Nirvana. Health: 30,000. Combat power: 30,000!]

“I did it! Finally, I have achieved True Nirvana cultivation! I’m no longer a weakling!”

Chen Xiaobei’s blood started to rush with excitement. One’s strength would always determine the person’s flow in Jianghu. The higher the combat power, the easier to step on top of the food chain. This was the rule that was never going to change. From the beginning till now, Chen Xiaobei had always wanted to become more powerful. He wanted higher combat power to deal with enemies that were more powerful than him and prepare for his future. It was only natural that he felt happy about it at this very moment.

“30,000 combat power! With the help of Witch King Combat Enhancement Training Manual, I will be able to boost my combat power to 33,000! If I manage to get to the top position in the Heroes of War Leaderboard, I can totally imagine the surprised look on Luo Puti’s face!”

Upon thinking about Luo Puti tried to convince him to quit Heroes of War martial art competition, Chen Xiaobei felt like laughing out loud. With his current strength, it was actually possible for him to get the top position! At the same time, he could prove himself to Luo Puti to capture her heart! This is the benefit of absolute strength! 33,000 combat power could definitely be put to good use.

“Other than combat power, I have received something more important!”

With a grin on his face, Chen Xiaobei channeled True Qi to his entire body and something magical happened!

True Kang was formed!

Chapter 716: None of My Business

*Boom!*

Chen Xiaobei’s Qi was so powerful that it shook the air. With his True Qi being channeled to his entire body, the air around him crystallized from gas to solid, materializing what he had in mind! Once True Kang materialized, it was actually more powerful than the real armor and weapon!

“Strange… My True Kang… Why is it transparent?”

Chen Xiaobei was struck by confusion and frustration. Normally, the True Kang of others looked like metal, frost, or even lightning! Definitely cooler than Chen Xiaobei’s True Kang. It was as if his True Kang did not exist.

“I’m pretty sure that my True Kang has materialized!”

He swung his hand and felt a layer of armor being formed around his hand. It was definitely powerful enough to block any sword or saber! It could even deflect a bullet from a handgun!

“Why is it transparent?”

After regaining his composure, Chen Xiaobei came to a conclusion.

“Could it be this has something to do with the Scripture of Heaven and Earth?”

Luo Puti and Xiaobei preferred Yang Ice attribute Spiritual Qi!

Tai Yitan from Miaojiang absorbed lightning attribute Spiritual Qi to train himself since he was a kid!

Lastly, Xiangyu preferred gold attribute Spiritual Qi!

“All their True Kang could be seen with the naked eye. They focused on absorbing the type of Spiritual Qi that they prefer when they train themselves! As for me, I absorbed all kinds of Spiritual Qi when I trained with the Scripture of Heaven and Earth! It allowed me to absorb all kind of Spiritual Qi effectively! That is why my True Kang’s form could not be seen by the naked eye!”

“That must be it! I have to re-study the Scripture of Heaven and Earth! I think I will be able to look for the answer that I want!

Immediately, Chen Xiaobei started to recall everything that he learned from the Scripture of Heaven and Earth. When he first started training with it, all he did was memorize the scripture. He did not go deeper to discover more stuff from it. After thinking it through, he came to a realization.

“The Scripture of Heaven and Earth is everything! At the same time, it is nothing!” he exclaimed.

“First thought! Everything must go through evolution!”

“Appearance! Form from your will!”

Reading the scripture out loud, something magical happened to Chen Xiaobei’s True Kang.

Wind beneath his feet!

Frost formed around his leg!

Water dragon circle around his hand!

Green wood formed around his arms!

Soil started to gather on his stomach!

His chest was flaming!

The ball of lighting could be seen in his eyes!

A chaotic aura was formed on top of his head!

“Damn! The Scripture of Heaven and Earth is the most powerful creation of my Sifu! Who else can create something as powerful as this! Who else?!”

Chen Xiaobei felt really excited after discovering something huge from it.

“Normally, one’s True Kang only consists of one attribute! As for my True Kang, I can change to any kind of attribute with just a single thought!”

Immediately, Chen Xiaobei True Kang’s was changed to lightning attribute after he put some thought into it. It was almost as powerful as Tai Yitan’s True Kang! Following by that, he changed it to frost attribute – it was exactly like Luo Puti’s True Kang!

“This is insane! When I combat with enemies, I can always choose the attributes that counter their attributes! In other words, I have the advantage with me when the enemies have the same combat power with me!”

“By changing the attribute, it allows me to hide my true identity. No one can recognize me when I this special True Kang during stealth ops! The most important thing is by choosing a different attribute to counter my enemy can boost my combat power indirectly!”

With Scholar Heart, Chen Xiaobei discovered the many benefits that came with the Scripture of Heaven and Earth! In the end, Chen Xiaobei found out that his combat power could be boosted to 39,000 – double of his previous combat power. Other than that, his True Nirvana cultivation could handle all kind of attributes. This breakthrough that he had this time was definitely beyond his expectation.

“Now, I need to deal with another problem. My health! I don’t think 30,000 health can handle 39,000 combat power! Considering that the martial art competition is just around the corner. I have to give my health a boost as soon as possible! There’s not much Spiritual Qi left inside my green jade gourd! I have to look a new source of Spiritual Qi as soon as possible to boost my health to 39,000!

Ding!

Ding!

Ding!

Suddenly, Chen Xiaobei’s cell phone rang non-stop. Actually, there were incoming messages that kept on bugging Chen Xiaobei earlier which he ignored.

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Xiaobei, are you there?

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Xiaobei, please reply my message as soon as possible!

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Xiaobei! This is a life and death matter! Say something, please!

…

Jiang Ziya’s messages kept on popping up in Chen Xiaobei’s cell phone. Clearly, he was desperate to get in touch with Chen Xiaobei.

“Damn! It seems like Sifu’s plan has started working! The more desperate he is, the more I don’t want to reply his messages! He was basking in joy when he took away all my merit points! Now, he wants to get in contact with me? No way!”

Dematerializing his True Kang, Chen Xiaobei proceeded to put his cell phone on silent mode. He then went and checked on his three pairs of mother-child voodoo worms. These three pairs of worms were not mature yet as more Spiritual Qi was needed to help with their growth. To Chen Xiaobei, spending a huge amount of Spiritual Qi on them was inevitable. Now, the lack of Spiritual Qi was his primary concern.

Spiritual Qi was needed to strengthen his body.

Spiritual Qi was needed to help with the growth of voodoo worms.

Spiritual Qi was needed to activate the Soul Consuming Enigmatic Jade.

“Oh right! I can take advantage of Jiang Ziya’s problem and ask him to give me a huge amount of Spiritual Qi! It’s time for me to make him pay back for what he did to me! Hehe! Jiang Ziya! Don’t blame me for treating you badly!”

Immediately, Chen Xiaobei took out his cell phone and started to reply Jiang Ziya’s messages.

Chen Xiaobei: Shixiong Jiang, what can I do for you?

Jiang Ziya: Damn! Finally! Shidi Chen, I’ve been waiting for you to reply me! Something bad happened and it’s really serious!

Chen Xiaobei: Cut the crap and goes straight to the point! I’m a busy man!

Jiang Ziya: It… It’s Lei Zhenzi! Earlier, he borrowed the Divine Whip from me! Somehow, he encountered an extremely powerful monster! And there is a crack on the Divine Whip after he used it to defeat the monster!”

Chen Xiaobei: Why is it a big deal?

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Chen, I assume you have no idea about the origin of this weapon. The Divine Whip was given to me by Primordial Lord of Heaven! This weapon has always been the symbol of Chanism! Our reputation will be jeopardized if others find out that there is a crack on it! Lei Zhenzi and I will be punished severely if Primordial Lord of Heaven finds out about it!

Chen Xiaobei: Oh? It seems like this weapon is really valuable to you guys! What kind of punishment are you talking about?

Jiang Ziya: If it’s just a light punishment, millions of merit points will be deducted from us and a thousand hits from the Divine Flame Enigmatic Cane! As for the heavy punishment, we will be held in the Ice and Fire Interdimensional Realm for hundreds of years! The most important is our reputation in Chanism will be affected once others know that we are punished by the Primordial Lord of Heaven!

Chen Xiaobei: Hehehe! That sounds really serious! Not only will the two of you be punished severely but also turn into the least important deities in Chanism!

Jiang Ziya: That’s right! This matter is really serious!

Chen Xiaobei: So, it is very serious. What does that have to do with me?

Chapter 717: Killing Four Birds with One Stone

‘That’s none of my business.

‘What the hell does that have anything to do with me?’

Jiang Ziya was outraged when he heard this.

He had spent the entire day confiding in and pleading to Chen Xiaobei. And the dismissive statement Chen Xiaobei gave to his state of distress was simply infuriating!

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Chen! Don’t you think that you are being too unreasonable?! Aren’t we a family? I mean, we call ourselves Shidi and Shixiong – doesn’t that mean that we would help each other out when there’s trouble?

Chen Xiaobei: Your mother is a whore! Should I tell everyone about it?

Jiang Ziya: You… You cursed my mum! I am your Shixiong! You renegade! ??

Chen Xiaobei: Me? A renegade?

Jiang Ziya: Are you denying it? When the Prime of Tongtian comes back, I will make sure he reads this conversation so that he can teach you a thing or two!

Chen Xiaobei: Is your brain full of shit? When I was in trouble and needed red packets, you punished me instead! You even cleared out my merit points! Now that you are in trouble, you tell me that we are a family? We should help each other? What a joke!

Jiang Ziya: I…

Chen Xiaobei: Shut up! I am not done talking! You are the typical tyrant and you have the balls to show this conversation to my Sifu! Aren’t you afraid that he will slap you in the face?

Jiang Ziya: I…

Chen Xiaobei: I said shut up and listen! I know that you contacted me because you want the Living Soil from Lady Nuwo! Only a Divine Material like this can repair the crack on the Divine Whip in a short period of time! Living Soil is extremely invaluable – I won’t give it to you just like that! Pay me ten thousand merit Spiritual Stones plus double the merit points that you have taken from me as compensation and I will give you a small piece of Living Soil. Otherwise, don’t bother contacting me!

Jiang Ziya: Ugh ?? Ten thousand Spiritual Stones AND double merit points? Why don’t you just rob the bank? I will not give in! ??

One minute passed and there was no reply.

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Chen! I know that you are still reading this chat! Give me one piece of Living Soil and I will restore all of your previous merit points! I am being very sincere! If you refuse my offer then we’ll have nothing to do with each other! ??

Half an hour went by and not a single word.

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Chen, it is better for us to make peace rather than war between us! I will help recover your merit points, AND give you one thousand Spiritual Stones! I really can’t give you more than that! If you don’t agree to it, there’s nothing more that I could do! ??

Twenty seconds later.

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Chen! Are you still there? Restore merit points plus five thousand Spiritual Stones! I’m also very poor…??

Ten seconds later.

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Chen! Shidi Xiaobei! Please reply… Restore merit points, and eight thousand… No… Ten thousand Spiritual Stones! ??

Five seconds.

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Xiaobei… I can give you the Spiritual Stones but I cannot double the merit points! I simply cannot give you 1,080,000 merit points… Can we agree on an extra three hundred thousand?

Jiang Ziya: Fine… I’ll do an extra four hundred… Five hundred …Seven hundred thousand! I’m already bleeding myself dry. I really cannot give you anymore!

One second later.

Jiang Ziya: Alright! Alright! I will comply! Double the original merits and ten thousand Spiritual Stones! Can you please reply my message? ??????

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Chen, I’ve already replenished your merits and put the Spiritual Stones in a Red Envelope and sent them to you! Please collect them!

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Xiaobei! I beg you to please collect the Red Envelope.

Jiang Ziya: I hope you did not scam me…??????

Jiang Ziya: Shidi Xiaobei! I beg you to please collect the Red Envelope! ??

“Muahahahaha…” Chen Xiaobei watched the screen like he was watching the world’s biggest joke.

Every word that this idiot Jiang Ziya said was a slap to his own face.

He acted like he was in control but when Chen Xiaobei kept quiet, he fell apart completely.

Ding!

[You have received 2,160,000 merit points!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You’ve been promoted to Philanthropist the Fourth!]

Ding!

[You currently have 2,160,000 merit points. You need another 840,000 merit points to move up to the next level (Charm: 216,000. Luck: 216,000)!]

“Haha! My merit points are in! Sweet!”

Chen Xiaobei was very excited and praised, “My Sifu is the best! This is really awesome!”

Clearly, everything that had happened up to this point was all thanks to the Prime of Tongtian!

Lei Zhenzi’s Divine Whip was not destroyed by some monster but by the Prime of Tongtian who did it conspiratorially.

Jiang Ziya was the owner of the Divine Whip. When it cracked, Chanism lost its face and Jiang Ziya had to bear the responsibility!

If the Primordial Lord of Heaven found out about it, he would surely be punished severely!

Jiang Ziya definitely did not want to see that happen.

He was the spokesperson of the Primordial Lord of Heaven. In the heavenly realm, he was actually rather famous. Wherever he went to heaven, all the deities had to step down and let him sit in their chairs! As the saying goes, Jiang Ziya is here and all the deities have to step down!

The Prime of Tongtian was right: Jiang Ziya would never give up on this prominent and powerful position!

That was why he would not dare to tell the Primordial Lord of Heaven about the cracked whip.

What’s more, he had not done anything noteworthy recently, so he could not possibly ask for the Living Soil from Lady Nuwo.

His only way out was to ask for Chen Xiaobei’s help!

The whole thing went by smoothly as the Prime of Tongtian had expected.

All Chen Xiaobei had to do was put on an act and smack Jiang Ziya’s face!

“Successful retribution, double merits, and ten thousand Spiritual Stones as interest! This is the epitome of killing two birds with one stone! In fact, I killed three!”

Chen Xiaobei could not stop smiling to himself.

With a tap, the Red Envelope on the screen opened with a ding.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You’ve snatched Jiang Ziya’s Red Envelope! Ten thousand Spiritual Stones have been deposited into your treasure chest!]

“How timely is this? I was short of Spiritual Stone and I was able to exploit Jiang Ziya for such a huge amount! Ahaha!”

Seeing this notification, Chen Xiaobei was excited!

He got the Spiritual Stones at the time when he really needed it!

This all summed up into one word – awesome!

Ding!

Jiang Ziya: God Chen! You’ve received the Red Envelope, so please give me the Living Soil! ??????

Chen Xiaobei: Don’t worry, I’m a man of my word.

Then, Chen Xiaobei took out the Living Soil, broke off a small piece and sent it in a Red Envelope.

Jiang Zija: That’s great! I can finally get the Living Soil! Shidi Xiaobei, you must keep this a secret! I’m going to mend the Divine Whip! Bye!

“Keep it a secret? Hah!” Chen Xiaobei’s eyes lit up. “I didn’t just kill three birds! I killed four!”

Chapter 718: Execute the Plan at Night

“Jiang Ziya violated the primordial law when he sent me the Red Envelope! Not only that, he’s also one of the early spokespersons of Primordial Lord of Heaven. He basically broke the law he was entrusted to enforce! His punishment shall be tripled!” Chen Xiaobei laughed wickedly and said, “As long as I keep a copy of today’s chat, I would have Jiang Ziya in my hands! If he dares play dirty again, I will make sure that he would suffer even more serious consequences! Wahaha!”

Kill four birds with one stone! Sweet!

Chen Xiaobei then took out the ten thousand Spiritual Stones that Jiang Ziya had just sent from the treasure chest.

*Swoosh…*

In that instant, thousands of Spiritual Stones scattered onto the floor until they form a heap that covered nearly all of the surface of the room.

“Nice! I got one hundred thousand Spiritual Stones in one go! If these were to be converted into cash, I’d have ten trillion cash! How awesome!” Chen Xiaobei celebrated.

He then took out the green jade gourd, held out his hand to the side and commanded, “Siphon!”

“Whoosh…” The green jade gourd immediately began to suck in the Spiritual Qi that was stored inside the Spiritual Stones.

The Spiritual Qi was extremely pure and concentrated. It only took a minute to fill up the gourd.

“That means I won’t have to worry about training anymore.” Chen Xiaobei smiled to himself. “But first I need a small target! I need to strengthen my body as fast as I can and crush the Heroes of War martial art competition and win Puti’s heart!”

“No one can stop me! I must hurry and strengthen my body right now and take action tonight!”

It was still morning and Chen Xiaobei did not waste a second of it. He immediately drank a bottle of Hundred Herbs Potion and stated to improve his health with Emperor Health Ultimate Enhancement Skill.

Currently, his maximum combat power was 39,000. But his body must be able to utilize such high combat power. If not, he would definitely be hurt by his own strength when he battled with others!

As for tonight, Chen Xiaobei had everything planned out way beforehand.

He wanted to sneak into Xuanjian Faction when the sun set.

Firstly, Liu Chunyi cheated Chen Xiaobei with a fake Dragon Void Sword. Today, he would have his revenge!

Secondly, Chen Xiaobei had always suspected that Liu Chunyi was doing something fishy in Xuanjian Faction!

Puti had told him that it would be difficult for Liu Yiyi to get into the top three positions on the Heroes of War Leaderboard; Chen Xiaobei, on the other hand, believed that there was a chance that Liu Chunyi might surprise everyone with what he could do.

Chen Xiaobei really wanted to win so he had to go see for himself.

After all, as Sun Tzu said ‘If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.’

There was at least half a day before night falls, Chen Xiaobei had to increase his health immediately.

……

At Dragon City’s renowned hospital.

In a private room, Tang Yunshan lay unconscious on the bed – he had not woken up since he had his butt kicked by Tai Yitan

There were two people sitting by the window.

Hai Linbai complained, looking extremely pissed, “Bother Jiuxiao! You knew that Chen Zhufeng’s power is formidable but you didn’t stop us from challenging him! Isn’t that an ass move?”

Zhuang Jiuxiao wore a dignified look on his face and said, “Stop grumbling. Promise that I will give each of you a Spiritual Stone!”

“This is not about the Spiritual Stone! We nearly died! Did you know that? Are you saying that our lives are worth only two Spiritual Stones?” Hai Linbai asked grimly.

“One Spiritual Stone is worth one billion. I could use that money to hire an S-ranked assassin. Allowing you to die is giving you face!”

Zhuang Jiuxiao said aggressively, “In fact, the both of you are still alive, aren’t you? If you keep complaining, I will end all relations with you!”

“You…” Hai Lin bai was lost for words. He was so angry that he wanted to stab Zhuang Jiuxiao with a knife.

Unfortunately, Hai Linbo was merely saying it. In reality, he would not have done it!

Zhuang Jiuxiao was the most talented member in the history of the Zhang Family. He was also nicknamed as Zhang Family’s number one genius.

The Zhang Family saw Zhuang Jiuxiao as an investment – who, in the future, would assist the family heir Zhuang Bifan.

That alone was more than enough a reason to render Hai Linbai speechless.

“Fine! This time we’ll overlook it this time, Give me the Spiritual Stone and we’ll consider it a truce!” Hai Linbai could only concede.

He had wanted to grumble and whine but it was more important to be paid first.

There was nothing else he could do. However, if he were to face off with Zhang Jiuxiao, things might turn ugly.

“There’s no rush! I still some questions for you!”

Zhuang Jiuxiao asked, How strong is that kid?”

“Kid? Do you mean Chen Zhufeng?”

Hai Linbai knitted his brows together and said, “His strength is immeasurable! Without channeling True Kang to his body and the help of formation or talisman, he could summon lightning out of nowhere! That was purely magical!”

“Summon lightning with just sheer will?”

Zhang Jiuxiao asked, “Do you mean that he could manipulate celestial phenomena? Lightning attribute phenomena?”

“That’s right! That kind of lightning is very overbearing! Before Chen Zhufeng could lift a finger, the young witch master from Miaojiang had already surrendered to him!” Hai Linbai confirmed.

“That’s not right! Situ Hengfeng once said that Chen Zhufeng was capable of manipulating wind attribute celestial phenomena! Wind and lightning are two different attributes! One can only choose one attribute focus on during the training! It is not possible for a person to manipulate two different attributes!” said Zhuang Jiuxiao.

“What do you mean by that?” Hai Linbai said bewildered
