Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

Chapter 802: Tidal Faction’s Leader

“Did you just call me a piece of shit?! You are so dead! You just slapped someone on the Paradise Island! Now, they are not going to remove you from this island! Instead, they are going to kill you and throw you into the sea as shark bait!”

“Heh… I’m so sick of you keep on talking about the enforcers! You make it sound like they belong to your family!” Chen Xiaobei said with a disdainful smile.

“I will forgive you since you know nothing about my family! My godfather is the commander of the enforcer team! His name is Master Hades! The whole team of enforcers is named after him! So, tell me now! Does the enforcer belong to my family?!”

“Hehe… I’m sooooo afraid of you!”

Chen Xiaobei was not shaken by what Wayson just told him. Instead, he even felt like laughing out loud.

“So, now you are afraid of me?! Too late! I want you to die today! It’s a must!!!” Wayson roared. He looked exactly like a wild boar that just suffered anal penetration.

“What the hell is going on here?”

Suddenly, an elegant and gentle middle-aged lady strode toward them.

“Greeting Sifu… Greeting Sifu…”

Immediately, Lin Xiang, Wei Shengjing, and the rest of the young ladies bowed at the lady that was walking toward them. Needless to say, this lady was none other than the faction leader of Tidal Faction, Lin Caoyin. Earlier, Cao Zhenyang did mention this name to Chen Xiaobei. This was his very first time seeing her in person.

Ding!

[Cultivation: Early phase of Celestial cultivation. Health: 70,000. Combat power: 70,000!]

Chen Xiaobei was startled after checking her out with Netherspirit Battlescouter. He had never thought that the forty-year-old-looking lady had such powerful cultivation.

‘Come to think of it, this is actually pretty normal. Considering the fact that she can sit tight on the throne of an ancient faction, her cultivation and combat power are definitely enough to dominate the entire Jianghu. In any case, an ancient faction without a leader with Celestial cultivation was definitely not worthy of being called an ancient faction.’

In his mind, Chen Xiaobei realized that he still had a lot to learn. What he knew right now was just the tip of the iceberg. He had to continue to work his way up to become more powerful. And he would be able to step foot into a brand new world and climb a higher mountain!

“Wayson! Who is the one that beat you up? This is ridiculous!”

Looking at the smashed mannequins on the floor, piles of messy clothes, and a pool of blood – Lin Caoyin deducted that Wayson was the victim in this incident.

“Aunt Lin! You have to bring me justice… The son of a bitch over there came to my shop and made a mess! He even said that all the clothes here are trash and they are not meant for humans!”

“Hmm…”

Anger could be seen onLin Caoyin’s face as her emotions shifted. It was obvious that Tidal Faction had a good relationship with Wayson. And she was actually wearing a set of clothes that were made of Divine Silk. That was why she felt angry.

“Actually, I’m not bothered about him degrading me. The thing that made me really angry is he called all the women in Tidal Faction whores!”

“What?!”

Instantly, Lin Caoyin became even angrier. The entire Qi field around her turned ice-cold. No ancient faction in the Jianghu would let someone to degrade them. She then turned her head slowly and glared at Chen Xiaobei with murderous intent – like an ice sword. It was as if she was going to chop Chen Xiaobei into pieces.

“There is no way that I can stand what he said about your faction! I have to make him apologize to you guys! Just when I wanted to force him to apologize to your faction, he slapped me! I blame myself for not being strong enough to defend your faction! I was not built to learn martial arts! I think you have to deal with him personally.”

Upon hearing that, Lin Caoyin’s anger reached boiling point. She would have killed Chen Xiaobei right here right now if she was not restricted by the rules on Paradise Island.

“Wayson. This is not your fault! Just rest! I’m going to make this arrogant son of a bitch pay for what he did to you!”

“Okay! I shall stop worrying after hearing what you just promise me!”

Acting in a pathetic manner, Wayson immediately turned around and looked into Wei Shenjing’s with a wicked glint in his.

Both of them were waiting to watch Lin Caoyin kill Chen Xiaobei.

“Sifu! That is not how it goes! Wayson added on a lot of stuff that never happens! He is doing it purposely to defame him! I know he wants Chen Xiaobei to be killed by you right here right now!” said Lin Xiang defensively.

“That bastard over there is your friend? You have no say in this matter! Step back!”

“Sifu! This is really a misunderstanding!”

Normally, Lin Xiang would obey everything that her Sifu told her to do. This time, she had decided not to listen to her and protect Chen Xiaobei.

“Xiang Xiang. Don’t argue with your Sifu! It’s not good for you!”

Chen Xiaobei then pulled Lin Xiang to his back and looked at Lin Caoyin face to face.

“Faction Leader Lin! Knowing that you are a faction leader of an ancient faction, I have decided to talk to you in a calm manner. There is more than one CCTV in this shop! The enforcer will arrive here in no time. By that time, we just need to check the CCTV footage and truth will be unveiled.”

Upon hearing that, the look on everyone’s face changed.

“Right! There is CCTV footage! Just watch it and Sifu, you will know the truth!”

“Shit!”

Immediately, Wayson and Wei Shenjing frowned. Knowing that they acted shamelessly earlier, they knew that Lin Caoyin would definitely land another slap on Wayson’s face.

“Wayson! Are you going to tell me the truth?!”

Within seconds, Lin Caoyin could see that Wayson and Wei Shenjing were hiding something from her.

“This…”

Wayson was taken aback.

“Sifu! It’s unsightly for you to side with an outsider!”

In critical moment like this, Wei Shenjing had decided to do whatever she could to save themselves.

“Wayson is my boyfriend! And he had done a lot of things for us on Paradise Island!”

Taken aback, Lin Caoyin did not disagree with her.

“And Wayson’s godfather is Master Hades! You know that there will be a lot of unforeseen circumstance during the auction! Masher Hades will not help you if you don’t help Wayson now!”

Upon hearing that, Lin Caoyin was shaken. She was here for one of the items that was going to be sold during the auction. And the item was extremely important for her. Earlier, she had contacted Hades through Wayson to figure out some ways to purchase the item before anyone saw it. In other words, she would not be able to get the item if she did not help Wayson now.

Immediately, Wayson added more thing to sway Lin Caoyin.

“Aunty Lin! Just side with me! I will introduce my godfather to you during the Lunar New Year Eve dinner later!”

Knowing that Hades’ backer was Focker and that Focker was part of the Rothschild Family, being able to build a good relationship with Hades was the thing that everyone dreamt of. Other than the auction, she would be able to benefit from the relationship between her and Hades as well.

Lin Caoyin was after all no saint. After putting some thought into it, she made up her mind.

“I’m not going to watch the footage! Just hand this kid over to the enforcer! They can do whatever they want with him!”

Upon hearing that, Lin Xiang fell in despair. On the other hand, Wayson and Wei Shenjing gazed at them triumphantly.

“Alright! Just hand me to the enforcers,” Chen Xiaobei said while shrugging.

Chapter 803: Letting You Know Why You Deserve to Be Killed

“Hmph! It seems like you are not afraid of death at all! I want to see you cry when the enforcers are here!”

Wayson and Wei Shenjing put on a grim smile while talking to Chen Xiaobei. Meanwhile, the group of young ladies did not show off too much of their emotions. However, one could still see that they were looking forward to seeing Chen Xiaobei being killed by the enforcers. Lin Caoyin on the other hand, was just standing there without saying a word. She had been in the Jianghu for a very long time. It was true that she felt ashamed of what she just did. Still, she would not risk offending the high and mighty Hades to side with Chen Xiaobei. To her, Chen Xiaobei was just an ordinary human being that had nothing to do with her. Unfazed, Lin Caoyin knew that she had made the right decision. All that left was to watch Chen Xiaobei being killed by the enforcers.

“Leave now! Run! You are going to die if you continue to stay here! Quick… Just go…”

Panicking, Lin Xiang could not care less anymore. She was trying to hold on tight to Chen Xiaobei’s arm to drag him out of this place.

“Hmph! Do you really think you can leave this island after making a scene here? It seems like you have underestimated Hades’ Enforcers!”

Suddenly, a stern voice and a series of quick footsteps could be heard outside the door.

“Godpa! My godfather is here!”

Immediately, Wayson got up from the floor, rushed to the entrance, and bowed respectfully, like a eunuch.

“Master Hades himself is here?!!”

Taken aback, the frost on Lin Caoyin’s face started to melt. All this while, she was trying to build a good relationship with Hades. However, she did not even get the opportunity to meet him in person. That was why she had decided to pair her disciple, Wei Shenjing with Wayson together to benefit from it.

Now, she could finally talk to Hades face to face. Feeling excited, Lin Caoyin was thinking a good way to start off a healthy and good relationship with Hades. Though Lin Caoyin was an elite with Celestial cultivation, she still wanted to please Hades. Pleasing Hades would mean pleasing Focker and that was equivalent to building a good relationship with the Rothschild Family.

Knowing that the mysterious Rothschild Family was equivalent to the most powerful ancient faction in Jianghu, Lin Caoyin realized that she would definitely benefit from becoming their trusted allies.

“Crap…”

Letting out a sigh of despair, the moment Lin Xiang heard Hades’ footsteps – she knew that Chen Xiaobei would be given a death sentence soon. And there was nothing she could do about it.

Outside the door.

“Godpa. Why did you come here personally? That kid is not worthy of your time!” asked Wayson in a politely.

“Initially, I wanted to go and pick up a VVIP and his family members. I’m worried that the VVIP and his family member will be caught in the disturbance. That was why I’m here to deal with it personally!”

“I see…”

Wayson kept on gulping. He could never imagine what kind of powerful individual would require Hades to pick them up personally. And he even had to treat them with care!

“What is going on here?” asked Hades.

“This arrogant son of a bitch just called you trash! I’m not pleased by how he scolded you! I wanted to talk some sense into him and he beat me up in the end!”

“What?! How dare he mock our Master Hades! I’m going to let him have a taste of our ten torture methods in our water prison!”

“Motherf*cker! I will never let those who mock Master Hades live any longer!”

“Cut the crap! Let’s go and break his arms and legs first!”

……..

After being taunted by Wayson, all the enforcers were furious. Grinding their fists against their palms, they started to march into the shop.

“Let’s head in!”

Anger could be seen on Hades’ face as well. Knowing that he was one of the most powerful people on the island, he would never allow someone to mock him and get away with it. Even Focker had to show him a good amount of respect.

“Godpa! He is that son of a bitch that I mentioned to you just now! Please send someone to kill him!”

Immediately, Wayson pointed at Chen Xiaobei. After putting some thought into it, Wayson decided to add on a few words.

“This kid is just too damn arrogant! If you don’t deal with him right now, I’m afraid he will startle your VVIP!”

“Bastard! Just die already!”

A few other enforcers were ready to give Chen Xiaobei a good beating. On the other hand, Wayson and Wei Shenjing were feeling really excited. As long as Chen Xiaobei ceased to exist from this world, they would be able to claim the eight billion dollars that Chen Xiaobei jus transferred to them with no questions asked. As usual, the group of young ladies had already started to figure out ways to please Wei Shenjing. They were thinking to benefit from the eight billion dollars that they just robbed from Chen Xiaobei.

Lin Caoyin on the other hand was just standing there and acting like she was not involved in this matter. Suddenly, Lin Xiang was no longer feeling despair. To her surprise, Wayson’s godfather was the one that she met last time after being rescued by Chen Xiaobei. During that time, there was another bodyguard with them. In order to avoid suspicion, Chen Xiaobei did not introduce him to them. However, Lin Xiang remembered clearly that she had seen this old man before.

“If this old man is the legendary Hades…”

Taken aback, Lin Xiang did not know what to say anymore. All she did was stared at them with her big and soulful eyes.

“Stop!”

Just as expected, Hades shouted out loud.

“Y-yes, sir…”

Feeling surprise, all the enforcers stopped whatever they were supposed to do. Immediately, they stepped back and stood behind Hades.

“Godpa! Why did you stop them?! That son of a bitch is the one that called you trash! He is an arrogant lunatic! Your VVIP will be constantly disturbed by him if you don’t cripple him right now!”

*Slap!*

Before Wayson could finish his words, a slap that was as loud as thunder landed on his face. Everyone was startled after hearing the loud slap and their ears even started to buzz. One could imagine that the slap was extremely powerful.

*Blarrghh*

Wayson was sent flying three meters from where he stood earlier. In the end, he crashed into the wall that was decorated with expensive ceramic tiles and his body was completely crushed. Following that, a mouthful of warm blood with broken teeth gushed out from his mouth. His jawbone was also completely twisted – making his face almost unrecognizable!

“What… What the hell is going on?”

Wayson, Wei Shenjing, the enforcers, and Lin Caoyin were all dumbfounded!

‘Something is wrong here! Hades should give Chen Xiaobei a tight slap but not Wayson! Supposedly, Wayson is his godson, so it doesn’t make sense that Hades will slap him so hard! God… Logic can longer explain the current situation!’

Baffled, there were a lot of questions popping out in the crowd’s head but none of them could come up with an answer.

“Someone! Bring Wayson Kim to our water prison! Serve him with our infamous ten torture methods! And kill him after that!”

Hades’ ice-cold aura had caused the temperature around him to drop tremendously.

“Huh?”

Standing rooted to the ground, the group of enforcer could not believe what they just heard.

“W-w-why?”

Breaking down, Wayson could not help but start to cry with snot coming out from his nose.

“Why? I shall tell you your mistake before I kill you!”

Immediately, everyone straightened up their ears.

Chapter 804: Vice Faction Leader!

Everyone had their eyes wide open and ears straightened up. They wanted to know why Hades would make such a decision. To them, Hades had definitely lost his mind. If not, he would not make such a peculiar move.

“Mr. Chen right here is the VVIP of Mr. Focker on this Paradise Island! I was going to bring him and his family members to the castle that is located in the center of this island! Master Focker has already prepared a Lunar New Year Eve dinner! They are about to celebrate the Lunar New Year together! You bunch of idiots! Do you know that you almost hurt and offended Master Focker’s important guest?! You should feel ashamed for asking me the question!”

“What?!”

Upon hearing that, the crowd was taken aback. They would have never thought that Chen Xiaobei was Focker’s important guest. Not only was Hades here to pick him up personally but he could also enter Focker’s castle to enjoy dinner with him! Special guests like Chen Xiaobei were extremely rare in this world. To put it in numbers, one could count it with five fingers.

“This is impossible… I don’t believe it… I will never believe it…”

Feeling shocked, Wayson started to wail hysterically. It was as if he just got out from a psych ward. As a resident of Paradise Island, he knew the consequences of offending Focker’s guest. The immense shock and fear had caused him to lose his mind within seconds.

“Someone! Please drag him out!”

With an ice-cold look, Hades shouted. After consuming the Heavenly Dog Biscuit, Hades would not care about the past relationship that he once had with Wayson. Everything that he did would place Chen Xiaobei first before anything else. Those who tried to cause harm to Chen Xiaobei would definitely be killed by Hades! Even the Jade Emperor would be hunt down by Hades if he hurt Chen Xiaobei. Also, Wayson was just only his godson with no blood ties. With such a determined attitude, it was enough to prove that Chen Xiaobei’s status on this island was not to be defiled – like a holy god!

“Yes!”

Immediately, the group of enforcers dragged Wayson out of the shop with no hesitation. All the enforcers looked at Chen Xioabei when they marched out of the shop. Filled with fear and respect, they felt fortunate that they did not lay their fingers on Chen Xiaobei. If not, they would definitely be killed by Hades. Upon seeing that, Lin Caoyin and her disciples were standing there like a statue with a baffled look.

Especially Lin Caoyin! Other than feeling extremely dumbfounded, she felt even more regret for not siding with Chen Xiaobei. In her plan, she wanted to connect with Hades through Wayson and Wei Shenjing’s relationship. That was why she chose to side with Wayson. Now, she realized that Wayson was just a turd as compared to Chen Xiaobei.

Earlier, if she chose to side with Chen Xiaobei, she would be able to build a good relationship with Hades easily. And she might even get an invitation to go to Focker’s castle as one of his guests. The moment she thought about this alternate ending, Lin Caoyin wished that she could rewind time and stand on Chen Xiaobei’s side.

“Mr. Chen. What do you want us to do with this group of ladies?”

Hades turned around and asked Chen Xiaobei politely. Upon hearing that, everyone from Tidal Faction including Lin Caoyin took in a deep breath. Clearly, they knew that their lives were in Chen Xiaobei’s hands.

“Mercy… Mr. Chen… Please let us live… We were blinded by lies… We are as stupid as pigs… Please don’t stoop to our level… We will not offend you anymore…”

Like a rat that saw a cat, Lin Caoyin and the rest of Tidal Faction’s disciples kneeled on the ground immediately. With their pupils contracted, they felt a chill going down their spines. Seeing that Wayson was sent to the water prison to be presented with ten torture methods, they knew that there was no light at the end of the tunnel since they took part in ousting Chen Xiaobei earlier.

“Do whatever you need to do!”

Chen Xiaobei did not show any mercy to them even though they kept on begging Chen Xiaobei to let them live. The truth was all of them did not deserve any mercy from Chen Xiaobei.

“Someone! Please drag all of them to the water prison! Deal with them like how you deal with Wayson Kim!”

“Hold on! Mr. Chen! I’m the faction leader of Tidal Faction, Lin Caoyin. And I’m Lin Xiang’s sifu as well! For my sake, can you please let them live?”

“No!”

Before Lin Caoyin could finish her words, Chen Xiaobei interrupted her.

“This…”

Taken aback, Lin Caoyin felt extremely frustrated. She was after all the faction leader of an ancient faction and an elite with Celestial cultivation. She had never lowered down herself so much to beg someone to let them go. To her surprise, Chen Xiaobei had no intention to say yes to her.

“Mr. Chen! Forgive me for being straightforward! Don’t you think you are acting too cruel as a man?”

Seeing that Chen Xiaobei’s heart would not be softened, she had to try to persuade Chen Xiaobei to let them go.

“Hehe…”

No one could ever persuade Chen Xiaobei into doing something that he did not want to do because his state of mind had already grown a lot.

“I’d given you a chance to make this right! When you stepped into this shop, I told you to check the CCTV footage and deal with this incident in a fair manner! Do you even know what you just did to me?!”

“You sided with the wrong party and you wanted me to be killed! Now, you want to me to let you live just because you are a faction leader of an ancient faction?! I have never seen such a shameless person! Not even the thickness of the Great Wall of China can be compared with the thickness of your face! You really shouldn’t call me narrow-minded! Showing you mercy is equivalent to bringing trouble to myself!”

“Actually, I’m quite baffled by what you just did! Aren’t you the faction leader of an ancient faction? How can you voice out such stupid request? Are you sure you are not here to put on a show and make us laugh?!”

With a stern look, Chen Xiaobei brought Lin Caoyin down with the cold hard truth firmly.

“I…”

Rendered speechless, Lin Caoyin’s face flushed and she could no longer look Chen Xiaobei right in the eyes. She thought she could persuade Chen Xiaobei into doing what she wanted him to do. In the end, she was shamed by her own words.

Side with the wrong side!

Shameless!

Ruthless!

Stupid!

All these words and phrases turned into cold-hard slaps to her face. She had never experienced such embarrassment in her life before. Having no way to counter Chen Xiaobei, Lin Caoyin wanted to dig a hole and hide in it.

“Someone! Bring…”

Hades was about to order someone to bring them to the water prison.

“Hold on! Xiaobei! Why not just let them go? Sifu treats me really well all this while! I don’t want to see the two of you turned into enemies,” said Lin Xiang.

“Right! Mr. Chen! For Shimei Lin’s sake! Please let us live!”

“We will treat her like our dear sister… Ah… No… We will treat her like our lady boss!”

Immediately, Wei Shenjing and the rest of them started to beg Chen Xiaobei to let them go as well. This was their final chance to beg for their lives.

“Mr. Chen! We know that we have wronged you. You have no obligation to let us live. But, for the sake of Xiang’er. Please let us live. I promise you that if you let us go, I will make Xiang’er my sister! And she will become the vice faction leader of my faction! Her authority in the faction will be as powerful as mine!”

“Eh?”

Upon hearing that, Chen Xiaobei started to smile.

‘My woman as the vice faction leader of an ancient faction? Sounds really cool!”

Chapter 805: Ready for Combat

“Alright. For Xiang Xiang’s sake, I will let you guys live!” Chen Xiaobei said while shrugging. He was willing to take a step back because of Lin Xiang. After all, Tidal Faction was chosen by the government for Lin Xiang to join. So, there must be a particular reason behind it. And it was true that Lin Caoyin treated Lin Xiang really well. The only bad part was Lin Xiang’s position in Tidal Faction was not high enough. That was why she was bullied by Wei Shenjing and the rest of them.

After this incident, Wei Shenjing, Lin Caoyin, and the rest of the disciples in Tidal Faction would definitely treat Lin Xiang with care and respect. Letting her continue growing in Tidal Faction is definitely better than changing a new faction. For her sake, Chen Xiaobei was more than willing to take a step back and listen to what she had to say. With Chen Xiaobei letting them live, Lin Caoyin would owe Chen Xiaobei a huge favor.

“Thank you Mr. Chen for showing us mercy! I, Lin Caoyin owes you a big favor officially! Just let me know if you need Tidal Faction’s help in the future!”

“Thank you Mr. Chen for not killing us… Thank you so much!”

Wei Shenjing and the rest of the young ladies felt really grateful that Chen Xiaobei let them live to see another day. From today onward, they would not dare to offend or disrespect Chen Xiaobei anymore.

“Xiang Xiang. Do you want to have a Lunar New Year Eve reunion dinner with us?” asked Chen Xiaobei.

He could not care less about the rest of them.

“I…”

Taken aback, Lin Xiang actually really wanted to say yes to Chen Xiaobei. In the end, she decided to shake her head and said, “I don’t think I will be joining you for the dinner. I want to celebrate this Lunar New Year Eve with my Shijie and Sifu! I’m now the disciple of Tidal Faction! I need to stop relying on you!”

“It seems like you have matured a lot! I’m not going to force you to join me. I would like to wish you a Happy Lunar New Year in advance!”

“Okay! Happy Lunar New Year to you as well!”

Lin Xiang put on a sweet smile and her beautiful eyes sparkled. After that, Chen Xiaobei left the shop with Hades. Immediately, the disciples of Tidal Faction started talking about Chen Xiaobei right after they left.

“Oh my God! Shimei Lin! Who in the world is your boyfriend?”

“Shimei Lin! You are so blessed! Where did you find such an awesome boyfriend?!”

“Shimei Lin! All of us here are so jealous of you!”

…

Wei Shenjing and the rest of the disciples kept on showering compliments. She was basking in joy – as though she was in heaven.

“Stop messing around! From today onward, Xiang’er is my Shimei! All of you have to address her as Shishu Lin!”

“Yes…”

Taken aback, the crowd put their hands together and bowed at Lin Xiang.

“Greeting Shishu Lin!”

“Ah? No… You guys…”

Feeling shocked, Lin Xiang was promoted from Shimei Lin to Shishu Lin within the blink of an eye.

“Xiang’er. You don’t have to feel nervous about it. You will get used to it pretty soon!”

Lin Caoyin strode toward Lin Xiang and held her arm. She then whispered into her ears, “From today onward, you will be known as the vice faction leader of Tidal Faction! In private, we can call each other sister! Just get comfortable with it,” said Lin Caoyin in a gentle manner.

“This…”

Like a dream, Lin Xiang could not believe that this was actually happening to her.

Suddenly, a man in a blood-red robe was standing at the corner of the shop and observing them.

“Duke, I don’t think that kid realizes that we are here. We can kill him anytime from now!” said the follower.

“No rush! There is something I must acquire during the auction tomorrow! We can let this island stay like paradise for now! Tomorrow, I’m going turn this place into a living hell!”

Ding!

Ten billion dollars was transferred to Chen Xiaobei’s account. A few minutes ago, Chen Xiaobei told Hades about the money that Wayson took from him. Not only did Hades make Wayson transfer the eight billion back to Chen Xiaobei’s bank account but also forced him to transfer another two billion to it! Seeing that the amount of money in his account was increasing, Chen Xiaobei was elated.

After that, the Lunar New Year Eve dinner was officially started. There was a big and round table in the luxurious dining hall with everyone sitting around it. While they were talking, the top ten cooks from around the world constantly brought out dishes for them. The dishes were so well plated that they looked like pieces of art! All in all, there were Asian and western cuisine being served to them. To their surprise, the Asian cuisine was prepared by one of the royal chefs where his family used to cook for the emperor.

At the end of the dinner, Focker took out a bottle of red wine that was called Satan’s Blood. There were only ten bottles in the entire world. He also even managed to come up with a bottle of 1970s Never Wine. Seeing that everyone was enjoying themselves during the dinner, it was definitely a joyful moment for all of them.

After the dinner, NeZha, Wenyuan, and Murong Xiaoyao went to the garden outside the castle to play with fireworks.

Xiaobai was lying on top of Sirius’s head to stargaze at the balcony. As usual, he was acting all cool and arrogant.

Song Qincheng went to accompany Chen Xiaobei’s parents to watch some Lunar New Year shows. It was obvious, she wanted to get closer to Chen Xiaobei’s family.

Fire Boss’ wife brought little Fire Boss with him to watch the show as well. With his adorable look, everyone just wanted to take the opportunity to play with him.

Xiangyu, Murong Tian, Fire Boss, Old Wang, and Jin Liu did not have enough alcohol during the dinner just now. So, they decided to stay back to have another joyful drinking session.

Focker and Hades were drinking with them as well.

As for Hong Haier, Jin Fei, and Cangjin Gu, these three people were already getting horny during the dinner. They took off to the brothel that they visited earlier right after the dinner was over.

Lastly, Chen Xiaobei was all by himself. Seeing that everyone was occupied with something, Chen Xiaobei snuck into one of the rooms prepared by Focker for him earlier. A sweet and chocolatey aroma came rushing at Chen Xiaobei once he opened the door. There were 999 pieces of Tiramisus that were decorated with gold foil being placed in the room. Clearly, all those Tiramisus were not meant for him.

“Store!”

With a wave of his hand in the air, all the Tiramisus were kept in his Infinite Space Ring. He then put all of them into one big Red Envelope.

You guessed it right! Chen Xiaobei was going to snatch some Red Envelopes for himself!

Today was the Lunar New Year Eve and there was a massive Red Envelope snatching session being held in the group. According to Chang’e, every group member was obligated to give out Red Envelopes. In that case, the success rate of snatching more than one Red Envelope was greatly boosted today. And Chen Xiaobei would have the chance to snatch something new that he had never seen before. The most important thing was that the Prime of Tongtian would bring a mysterious present for Chen Xiaobei as well. Without a doubt, today was definitely the best day of his life.

*Deep breath*

*Deep breath*

Chen Xiaobei took in a few deep breaths and put up a ready-to-combat pose. Tapping his finger on the cell phone’s screen, the group chat was opened.

Chapter 806: Team That Went to Retrieve Scriptures

Primordial Lord of Heaven: Everyone! After enjoying all the good food and Goddess Chang’e’s beautiful dance, it’s the moment everyone’s been waiting for! The Red Envelope grabbing session!

Upon hearing that, the entire group became complete silent. One could imagine that hundreds and thousands of them were prepared to snatch some Red Envelopes for themselves.

“Shit! It’s going to start soon! For real!”

Putting himself in ready-to-combat mode, a strong combat intent could be seen from Chen Xiaobei’s eyes. He was ready to march into the battlefield. His 257,000 luck was on fire! Today, an intense Red Envelope snatching battle would occur in the group!

Primordial Lord of Heaven: To be fair, I urge everyone to prepare a big Red Envelope right now! I’m going to count to three! And I want everyone to send it to the group at the same time!

Primordial Lord of Heaven: Three

Primordial Lord of Heaven: Two

Primordial Lord of Heaven: One!

Ding!

Ding!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

In an instant, Chen Xiaobei’s cell phone started to ring non-stop. Hundreds and thousands of messages were flooded into his cell phone. Though Chen Xiaobei possessed the ultimate speed reading skill, there was simply no way for him to read every single message.

The Jade Emperor has sent a Red Envelope.

Giant God Ju Lin Shen has sent a Red Envelope.

Yanwang has sent a Red Envelope.

Han Xiangzi…

Prime Minister Tortoise…..

…..

……

“Damn! Damn! Damn! This is getting crazier by the second!”

Both of Chen Xiaobei’s eyes shone. Once the Primordial Lord of Heaven commenced the Red Envelope grabbing session, Chen Xiaobei sent out a Red Envelope with 30,000 spicy sticks inside it. Following that, Chen Xioabei mustered his strength to keep tapping on the screen non-stop. Just like what Chang’e told him earlier, those that had never spoken in the group were obligated to give out Red Envelopes as well.

The number of Red Envelopes flooding into the group were more than all the Red Envelopes that were being sent into the group previously.

However!

Things were not as simple as Chen Xiaobei thought it would be.

It was true that a lot of people were giving out Red Envelopes but that also meant a lot of people were snatching Red Envelopes as well! In other words, the difficulty of getting more Red Envelopes had been increased.

“No way! Today is the day for me to welcome new things and put all bad things aside! I need to have something good at the beginning of the year! C’mon! Give me more Red Envelopes!”

Gritting his teeth, Chen Xiaobei decided to use some of his items to invest in this Red Envelope grabbing session. With his sheer will, Chen Xiaobei took out three Prosperous Monkey Furs from his Infinite Space Ring.

*Blow*

“Grant me extra three hands!”

Immediately, a ray of light shone on Chen Xiaobei. There were then extra three hands being added to his body. Seconds later, his investment was rewarded with a new item.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Sanzang! You have received a manual called Tightening-Crown Spell. It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Haha! First!”

With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei’s blood was pumped.

Today was really a big day for them! Even Sanzang was here today! A very long time ago, Chen Xiaobei exchanged a Red Envelope from him with pornographic pictures. After that, he stopped showing up in the group completely. It seems like Chen Xiaobei would be able to snatch even more Red Envelope from those that rarely talk in the group! New items were about to pour into Chen Xiaobei’s treasure chest!

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Sanzang! You have received three Golden Crowns (Replica). It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Damn! Double kill! I just snatched another Red Envelope from Sanzang again! Quite a generous man I would say! Awesome!” said Chen Xiaobei with a smile on his face.

Chen Xiaobei managed to head off with a good start. Still, he had no intention to stop tapping on the screen anytime soon. Five of his hands were constantly moving non-stop!

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from General Folding-Curtain! You have received a Quicksand Gourd. It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Triple kill! Another new item! Ahaha… General Folding-Curtain is also known as Sha Wujing! This guy is famous for his inactiveness in the group! I’m surprised that he is here today! It seems like the team that went to retrieve the sacred scriptures are all here!”

Right after Chen Xiaobei finished with his words, another Red Envelopes came to him.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Zhu Bajie! You have received 300 pounds worth of Divine River Spiritual Water. It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Monkey King! You have received ten Prosperous Monkey Furs. It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Damn! What I just said earlier became reality! The Divine River Spiritual Water that I just received earlier is really some good stuff. And I just used up stock the previous time! This came at the right time!”

“It seems like Monkey King is getting really excited over this Red Envelopes grabbing session as well! I can’t believe that he put ten Prosperous Monkey Furs in one single Red Envelope! Haha! Part of his body must have turned bald now!”

Chen Xiaobei was amused by it. However, he knew that Monkey King had always been a man that prioritized happiness over everything.

“Sanzang, Sha Wujing, Monkey King, and Zhu Bajie are all here! And I managed to snatch all their Red Envelopes! Only Little White Dragon is not here! I wonder if this Third Dragon Prince will show up in the group! This is so exciting!”

While snatching Red Envelopes, Chen Xiaobei was anticipating his appearance. The Third Dragon Prince is the horse that Sanzang rode to retrieve the sacred scriptures. It was loyal and super good looking! In the story Journey to the West, he was really famous. However, there were some old conflicts going on between him and NeZha. That was why the sea creatures from the four oceans had never shown up in the group.

Seeing that a lot of rare members were showing up in the group today, Chen Xiaobei wanted to take this opportunity to get to know the Third Dragon Prince.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Third Dragon Prince! You have received Hydrophobic Orb. It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“What the f*ck! My luck is getting more and more awesome! Everything that I wish for is coming to me! Finally, I managed to snatch the Red Envelope by Little White Dragon! The team that traveled to the west to retrieve the sacred scriptures are finally all here! Awesome!”

Chen Xiaobei felt so elated that he jumped up from his seat. To every Chinese in China, the story Journey to the West was part of their childhood. Being able to snatch Red Envelopes from all five of them was definitely a special moment that was worth remembering! The items inside the Red Envelopes were just bonus. The meaning behind it was love! All the five envelopes indicated that five blessings had descended upon the house. And the upcoming year would flourish in prosperity! At the same time, the first wave of Red Envelopes had slowly calmed down. Though there were a lot of Red Envelopes being sent to the group, there were a lot of people snatching them as well. That was why the session did not last long.

“This is not enough! My three extra hands are still here! The Red Envelope grabbing session cannot stop now!”

Considering that Chen Xiaobei was well prepared today, he would not stop until he was satisfied. Now, he had only managed to snatch six Red Envelopes! That was far from his initial goal. With a single tap, Chen Xiaobei sent another 30,000 WaHaHa High Cal Milk into the group. Immediately, the second wave of Red Envelope grabbing commenced.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Goddess Zixia! You have received a Moonlight Cache (Replica). It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Damn! This is so awesome! I can’t believe that Goddess Zixia really possesses the legendary Moonlight Cache!”

Feeling excited, Chen Xiaobei continued to tap on the screen.

Chapter 807: Eighteen Items

Moonlight Cache!

That was something that Chen Xiaobei had not received before. And the effect was really powerful. Investing in 30,000 bottles WaHaHa High Cal Milk was definitely worth it since Chen Xiaobei could get his returns almost instantly.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from Wei Xiaobao! You have received three Infallible Tower Pills! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from Nanji Xianweng! You have received two South Pole Longevity Peaches! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from Goddess Yulin! You have received a book called Tranquillity Jade Heart! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Ten items now! Ahahaha!”

“My luck during the Lunar New Year is beyond incredible! Not only did I manage to snatch ten Red Envelopes, but also most of them are good items!”

“Not enough! Not enough! I want more! I cannot stop snatching all those Red Envelopes now!”

Seeing that the whole thing was slowing down, Chen Xiaobei threw in another big Red Envelope to the group. There were around 30,000 sausages with different flavors packed inside the Red Envelope.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from Goddess Chang’e! You have received a Peaceful Golden Lock! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from Emperor Zhenwu! You have received a Zhenwu Combat Spear! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from Great Priest Xuandu! You have ten Yellow Tier Cultivation Breaking Pills! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Only thirteen items now! Not enough! I want to continue to snatch more Red Envelopes! I’m an aggressive and greedy man today!”

Seeing that the whole thing was slowing down once again, Chen Xiaobei threw in his final trump card – 3,000 pounds of spicy little lobsters! In an instant, everyone began to send in more Red Envelopes to the group.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from God Erlang! You have ten God of War’s Body Strengthening Pills! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from God Erlang! You have twenty God of War’s Body Strengthening Pills! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from God Erlang! You have thirty God of War’s Body Strengthening Pills! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“What the f*ck? Three Red Envelopes from God Erlang! Sixty God of War’s Body Strengthening Pills in one go! What a stingy bastard! This is just an ass move! He just keeps sending all those useless items into the group! He literally wasted all my luck!”

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from Hundred Beast Xingjun! You have received two Yellow Tier Spiritual Beast Pulse Thriving Pills! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You just snatched a Red Envelope from Lu Dongbing! You have received an Ancestral Sword Divine Rune! It has been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Luckily, there are two new items! If not, God Erlang would really ruin the whole thing for me!”

Before all three extra hands disappeared, Chen Xiaobei managed to snatch another two Red Envelopes.

“In total, I managed to snatch eighteen Red Envelopes! It seems like my new year is getting better and better! Perfect ending!”

The moment the three hands disappeared, the Red Envelope grabbing session finally ended. Seemingly, everyone was counting the number of Red Envelope that they had just received. That was why the group was rather quiet. Soon, someone started to make some noise.

God Erlang: @Chen Xiaobei. God Chen! You are the luckiest person in this group! Are you not going to send us another Red Envelope to make us happy?

“Psst! All the items that you sent to the group are trash! How shameless can you be to ask me to send another Red Envelope to the group?” said Chen Xiaobei while rolling his eyes at him.

Lei Zhenzi: Shishu Xiaobei! It seems like you have gotten a lot of Red Envelopes today! You have to send us another Red Envelope!

Tu Xingshun: Shishu Xiaobei! You have sent us spicy sticks and WaHaHa High Cal Milk multiple times! It’s time for something new!

Shen Gongpao: Quick! We are all waiting here! Stop dilly-dallying! Be a man!

“What the hell! The members of Chanism are targeting me! This must be a trap! God Erlang is a disciple of Chanism! This group of people is trying to force my hand to send them another Red Envelope!”

Randeng Daoren: Shidi Xiaobei! You are after all the disciple of the Prime of Tongtian! You should take his place to send us another Red Envelope since he is not here today!

“Eh? Sifu is not here today? I didn’t even notice that because I was focusing on snatching more Red Envelopes just now! Could it be Sifu had some trouble on his way back here?”

“No! No! I’m over thinking it! Sifu is one of the deities in heaven! There is literally no one within three realms that can defeat him! I guess he must be dealing with some other matters! Luckily, I’m well prepared!”

Chen Xiaobei: Okay! Since Sifu is not here yet! I shall take his place and send all of you another Red Envelope!

God Erlang: Quick! Quick! Quick! I can’t wait any longer!

Chen Xiaobei: Let me finish talking first! The item that I’m about to send to you guys is extremely rare and valuable! I have put in a lot of effort to acquire this item! The amount is limited! So, get ready! Don’t blame and complain to me if you fail to get one!

Upon hearing that, the entire group became quiet. One could imagine that everyone was getting ready to snatch Chen Xiaobei’s Red Envelope.

“It’s not that easy to snatch my Red Envelope!”

Chen Xiaobei took out ten Tiramisu out of one thousand Tiramisu and put them into a Red Envelope. However, he did not send it to the group immediately. Instead, he was just waiting there.

God Erlang: God Chen! Be quick! We are all ready!

Tu Xingshun: Quick! We can’t wait any longer!

Shen Gongpao: Be quick!

Soon, the disciples of Chanism started to hasten Chen Xiaobei.

“This is the right time!”

With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei was waiting for this moment.

Ding!

The Red Envelope was gone once it was sent to the group.

God Erlang: Damn! It’s gone?! I was still typing just now!

Tu Xingshun: I was typing as well!

Shen Gongpao: This is mean!

…

Hearing the disciples of Chanism were complaining about it, one could see that none of them managed to snatch the Red Envelope that was just sent out by Chen Xiaobei.

“Hmph! Trying to outplay me?! Too na?ve! I will never let you guys snatch my Red Envelopes!” said Chen Xiaobei with a satisfied smile.

Shennong: Oh my god! T-t-this! This thing is so damn delicious!

God Erlang: Shennong! What did you get?! Your response looks exaggerated!

Third Dragon Prince: So yummy! Just like what Monkey King told me earlier! The name of this dish is Tiramisu! Not only is it pleasing to the eye, but the taste was also just as mind-blowing!

God Erlang: No way! Why did I fail to snatch such good item?!

Bull Demon King: This is soooo delicious! The taste is so unique! I don’t think I can ever find such food in the heavenly realm!

Lu Dongbing: Hahaha! This is really a good food! I have not wasted my time here! Shidi Xiaobei! Can you tell us something about this unique taste?

Chen Xiaobei: The fragrance that you guys mentioned comes from a type of ingredient called chocolate! It is extremely rare! You can only find it on earth!

God Erlang: Chocolate? I want to have a taste of chocolate! God Chen! I beg you! Give me some chocolate!

Chapter 808: Gifting Time

Chen Xiaobei: I’ve already told you that there were very few Red Envelopes. You had time to prepare! So why are you blaming me for not being able to grab any?

God Erlang: I…??

Sanzang: Because of Chen Xiaobei, we got to eat so many delicious food! So good! ??

Curtain-Rolling General: The food was good but there were too few – so few that it’s might even be fewer than Deity Zhenyuan’s Ginseng Fruit! We really have to take our time to enjoy it…

Lu Dongbing: The fewer the more expensive it is! This good stuff is so rare there are only ten of them, even rarer than Saturn Peach and Ginseng Fruit! I want to keep half of it so that I can savor it slowly!

God Erlang: Ugh… ??

Everyone: God Chen! You must send us the Tiramisu again! We’ll be waiting! ??

……

Those who got the Tiramisu were all raving and praising – almost to the point of paying homage to the dessert!

Those who were not able to get their hands on it were envious and spiteful. They had all started counting the days to the next time Chen Xiaobei sent out this sort of exquisite and rare delicacy!

None of them could have imagined that, in actuality, there were still another 999 Tiramisus in Chen Xiaobei’s treasure chest!

“Only those who are my good friend will be able to enjoy such a special treatment!” Chen Xiaobei smirked.

He had always been someone who emphasized loyalty. He would never forget his friends even when his pockets were full!

At one of Chen Xiaobei’s brotherhood group, Little Apple Playground.

These two group of friends were always supportive of Chen Xiaobei – that was why they deserved such special treatment!

Chen Xiaobei gave out two hundred gold-foil Tiramisu to his brotherhood group and another six hundred to Little Apple Playground.

Immediately, the two groups exploded in chatter.

Chang’e: Wow! God Chen! Why did you give out so many Tiramisus? I got fifty of it! ??

Yanwang: Oh my god! This things is rarer than Saturn Peach and Ginseng Fruit! And I managed to get forty-six of it!

Xiao Tianquan: I got forty-eight of it!

Monkey King: Hahaha! I’m the king of luck! I got fifty-six! God Chen is the best!

Chen Xiaobei: You guys are my best friends! That’s why I want you to get the most of it!

Chang’e: God Chen is so good! *smooch* ??

Yanwang: Bro Bei is way too sincere! ??????????????????????????????????

Xiao Tianquan: It’s an honor to be friend with God Chen! ??

Monkey King: There’s nothing else to say but you are such a good friend! ??????

…

Mengpo: My goodness! God Chen! What is this? I got three Tiramisu!

Grandma Rong: I also got two!

Grandma Li: God Chen is so noble – he even remembers us! He gave us such precious things! ??

All the grandmas: Thank you God Chen! Thank you God Chen!!!

Chen Xiaobei: Oh, that’s nothing! All of you helped me during the singing competition! When Jiang Ziya wrongly accused me, all of you spoke on my behalf! This is but a small gift! Sadly, because of time constrains, I was only able to prepare a few. If I get the chance again next time, I will send out more Red Envelopes like this again! ??

Mengpo: God Chen is too kind! I’m really grateful!

Grandma Rong: If you need anything, just say the word and we’ll help you!

……

Now, there were only 190 Gold Foiled Tiramisu left.

Chen Xiaobei gave one hundred to the Prime of Tongtian

“I’ve always received Red Envelopes from Sifu. This is the first time I’m giving him Red Envelopes. I hope he likes them…”

However, the Prime of Tongtian was working on something. There was no reply at the moment.

After that, Chen Xiaobei gave fifty to Taiyin True Deity.

Taiyin True Deity did not reply either. Chen Xioabei was wondering what was he doing during the Lunar New Year.

There was now forty left.

Chen Xiaobei then divided the rest to Wei Xiaobao and Zhu Bajie.

These two experienced players were acquainted with Chen Xiaobei but they were both crooks with selfish motives. They had never treated Chen Xiaobei with absolute sincerity and devotion – so naturally, they also benefited less!

However, when Chen Xiaobei sent them the Red Envelopes, the two of them expressed sincere gratitude toward Chen Xiaobei!

Wei Xiaobao: My goodness! My group leader! You gave us such a valuable Red Envelope! I… I don’t know what to say…?? From today onward, you are my brother! I will follow you and do whatever you ask me to do!

Zhu Bajie: What the f*ck! Twenty Tiramisu! Brother Xiaobei! You gave me a heart attack! ?? You are too generous! I shall not be stingy! From today onward, I will not fight against you over Goddess Chang’e anymore! We are now loving brothers!

Chen Xiaobei: Very good! Fantastic! As long as you are my brother, I will not ill-treat you! If you side with me, more good things will come at you! ??

Wei Xiaobao: Side with Bro Bei and more good things will come to us! ??????

Zhu Bajie: Side with Bro Bei and more good things will come to us! ??

…

Right now, everything in the group seemed to have settled down.

Chen Xiaobei immediately left the room.

“Now that I’ve given my group members the benefits, now it’s time to give some to my family and friends!”

Chen Xiaobei returned to the banquet hall and sent Focker to bring everyone back in.

When everyone was present, Chen Xiaobei pushed in a food cart, covered it in a red cloth and appeared before the crowd.

“Chen Xiaobei!” Zhang Chui’er frowned. “I was enjoying myself at the Spring Festival party! Why did you call us here?”

“Mum, don’t fret! Right now, I will perform a magic show for all of you! And I guarantee that it will one hundred times more interesting than the Spring Festival party!” Chen Xiaobei grinned and stood pensively behind the food cart – he had the air of a magician about him.

“Oh bull! You can perform magic?” Murong Xiaoyao scoffed. “Prat that it’s not some half-assed magic show! Don’t waste our time!”

“Yeah, Chen Xiaobei, what are you doing? Hurry up? We want to get back to what we were doing!” Hong Haier pressed, flashing him a look of impatience.

He was just having fun with the sexy ladies and he had his pants down when Focker called them over. How could he not be in a hurry?

“Hurry my ass! Sit down all of you!” Chen Xiaobei glared at him.

“I can’t! I need to get back there and fight to bring glory to our country!” said Hong Haier. “When we came out earlier, a foreigner laughed at us saying that we were Chinese quick shots! I must have my revenge!”

“A foreigner?” Chen Xiaobei eyes grew cold. He then ordered, “Jin Fei, go take a picture of that foreign
