Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

Chapter 471: It’s Time for You to Die!

“Liangchen, you’ve been with Sifu Chen longer. Do you think he can defeat that vampire?” Feng Qingyang frowned. He was apprehensive – Chen Xiaobei may as well be a god to him, but that vampire was incredibly powerful.

Not even Gao Ziang could defeat this monster!

So how would Chen Xiaobei do it?

“I’m not certain what Bro Bei’s planning, but he will definitely be beaten if his combat power is still the same as the last time I met him…” Yap Liangchen gulped. To him, Chen Xiaobei’s cultivation was still at the early phase of Qi refining stage.

It was therefore natural for him to think that Chen Xiaobei could not defeat the monster.

“Kid, it’s suicide if you fight that monster… Cough… Its combat power is extremely high, and you can’t hurt him with your weapon! You’re dying young unless your combat power is higher than him…” Gao Ziang told Chen Xiaobei between gasps before his eventual doom.

As the saying goes: those about to die, speaks nothing but the truth. Indeed, Gao Ziang knew that he was dying regardless, which was why he would tell Chen Xiaobei – who he wanted to kill just a little while ago – to flee instead of picking a fight with that monster.

Nonetheless, Chen Xiaobei ignored him, and soon stood in front of the monster.

“I shall grant your death wish!” The vampire was fearless despite Chen Xiaobei’s calm stride. He was just a young man who was slightly more powerful than Ye Linlong.

*Swoosh*

The vampire spread his arms like an eagle stretching out its wings, flashing a pair of claws that were imbued with white True Qi.

Untroubled, Chen Xiaobei raised his sword. “To be honest,” he said calmly, “you’re quite strong. It’s true that my combat power is lower and no weapon can hurt your hands. Any ordinary person would have a hard time holding up against you, but unfortunately today is the day your die!”

Chen Xiaobei’s saber was almost three-feet long and covered in dragon scales. Its handle, carved in the motif of a dragon head too, with claws and fangs that made it look at once majestic and fashionable.

Chen Xiaobei imbued the saber with his Dragon Force. The blade came to life, and the Demonic Dragon was now ready to strike down its does!

“Impressive!” Feng Qingyang had seen a lot of things in his life, and could tell at once that the saber was extraordinary the moment he saw it.

“It’s incredible… The Qi of that Saber is making my heart thump!” Yap Liangchen frowned. He could feel a mysterious force shrouding his chest; he might not be able to breathe if the saber was pointed at him.

“What…What’s that?” Suddenly, the count was apprehensive; his pupils contracted as an invisible force surged at him. It was as if he was facing some primordial entity, and he felt severe discomfort all at once!

“Too bad for you!” Chen Xiaobei glared at the vampire and swung his saber at him.

*Whoosh*

The black saber tore through the air! The impact created by the Dragon Force was so powerful it could strike anything from miles away!

“It’s a good sword, but you’re still weak! You can’t even dream of scratching my Impenetrable King Kong Skin!” The vampire shouted, his eyes streaming murder.

He swung both of his claws and raised his True Qi through the roof. The white True Qi was chilling like cavern air that had been frozen for millions of years. It threatened to engulf Chen Xiaobei mercilessly!

“Sifu, dodge! That’s the Absolute Zero Yin Qi – it’s even more powerful than the Three Faces Evil Spirit! It can freeze a normal person instantly!”

“Bro Bei!” Yap Liangchen feared the worst after hearing what Feng Qingyang said.

However!

Chen Xiaobei, the face of tranquility, roared: “Demonic! Dragon! Blade!”

*Whoosh*

The blade streaked, leaving and an afterimage of black line that lingered in the air. Everyone could see the black saber colliding with the claw! However, there was no sound or sparks, only the black line!

“Aaargh! Aaargh!”

The vampire screamed in agony in an instant. His claws that he was so proud of were sliced in half and dropped limply to the ground, with blood gushing from his sliced palm. The arrogant vampire never expected his Impenetrable King Kong Skin to fail him so easily!

“Die!”

Seizing the opening, Chen Xiaobei swung his sword at the vampire’s neck like a flash of black lightning! The monster was decapitated before he realized was happening!

“Wow! How… How is that even possible?”

The others stood, petrified as they watch the scene unfold.

“Bro Bei…” Yap Liangchen’s emotion was jumbled. He had been despairing a moment ago, but now it felt like the sun had rose in his heart again. It felt like being rescued from hell and ascending to heaven in minutes!

“Sifu! You’re truly powerful! Please, allow me to congratulate you!” Feng Qingyang bent his old and creaking knees in front of Chen Xiaobei.

“This… This…” Gao Ziang stared at Chen Xiaobei in wonder. The kid handled the monster with such ease! He never knew that the brat he wanted to slay stood upon such threshold of power – he would have been easily bested even if the youth used half his strength.

Fear and awe were his last thoughts as Gao Ziang drew his last breath and expired with his eyes wide-open.

Chen Xiaobei turned to the remnants of his factions. “Destroy your own cultivations and get out of Dragon City!”

He was not even particularly loud, but his voice was as powerful as the emperors of old! The members of Ghost Claw Faction did not even try to beg or defend themselves; they did what Chen Xiaobei told them to and fled immediately.

And thus the turf war ended.

Yap Liangchen and Feng Qingyang quickly ran to Chen.

“I thought your cultivation was still at early phase of Qi refining stage, but you’re ten times more powerful than I am! Seems like I would never be catch up to you now!” Yap Liangchen exclaimed in awe.

“Sifu, I have a request. May I capture the soul of that vampire?” Feng Qingyang requested seriously. “I want to turn him into Icy Demonic Evil Spirit!”

“That’s good!” Chen Xiaobei replied. “You don’t have to ask my permission to do it. Or do you have more to say?”

Chapter 472: Yamato no Orochi

“Some time ago, an old monk told me something about merit points,” Feng Qingyang explained respectfully. “I’m aware that Sifu won’t be able to receive the merit points for defeating this evil spirit if I capture its soul. So, I really need your permission to do it…”

The vampire’s soul was filled with Absolute Zero Yin Qi, which Feng Qing can grow an Absolute Zero Evil Spirit from. However, he wold not be able to do so if Chen Xiaobei shakes his head.

The young man, however, nodded. “I don’t mind. Just capture it!” He told the old man. “You’re the Demonic Icy Old Man. Those weaklings won’t laugh at you anymore if you have an Absolute Zero Evil Spirit, and neither would they belittle me as your Sifu as well!”

Yesterday, Chen Xiaobei had just earned one hundred and sixty thousand merit points from Jiang Ziya. Therefore, he did not really mind missing out on such a meager amount of merit points – he would even make his disciple stronger, too!

“Sifu, thank you so much!” Feng Qingyang exclaimed happily. He activated his Yin Yang Eye by touching it with one hand, while using the other to take out his Spirit Jar. Suddenly, the temperature of their surroundings plummeted after he chanted a spell, leaving Yap Liangchen nastily surprised since he had no idea what was going on.

Through the Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei could see that the spirit of the vampire that he just defeated was pulled from the ground forcefully and siphoned into the Spirit Jar. Feng Qingyang’s power was truly unimaginable – he could actually grab a soul that belonged to hell!

“Sifu, it’s done!” Feng Qincheng told Chen Xiaobei politely as warmth returned to their surroundings.

Chen Xiaobei nodded. “Well, don’t disappoint me since you have such a powerful minion. I might also recover your cultivation in the future!”

With Gao Ziang dead, ownership of the land fell to Chen Xiaobei.

While he would start his own faction sooner or later, he sorely needed some powerful elites to guard the faction with him. Their reputation would also increase tremendously if Feng Qingyang was as powerful as he once was! His very presence would serve as a warning, and those small-time factions would never dare to attack them. Therefore, it was crucial for Chen Xiaobei to recover the old man’s cultivation as soon as possible.

“Re…Recover my cultivation?”

Feng Qingyang was trembling. Then, he opened his eyes wide and kneeled. “Thank you so much, Sifu!” He exclaimed. “You are the almighty! There’s nothing you can’t do in this world!”

Yap Liangchen was really shocked too – this was his first time ever hearing about recovering a destroyed cultivation! He would never believe it if anyone said it. Still, he had no reason to doubt Chen Xiaobei because whatever he said always comes true!

“Deal with the bodies.”

Chen Xiaobei took out a bottle of Body Dissolving Poison and handed it to Feng Qingyang.

“Yes Sifu!” The old man did as he was told immediately while Chen Xiaobei whipped out his cellphone and called Luo Puti about buying the land. Initially, she was strongly against it, but gave in instantly when he mentioned Elder Luo.

It was a similarity that shared – both of them are extremely afraid of being nagged by their family. Thus, Luo was forced to say yes to Chen.

However.

Three billion!

That’s the official price set by the government for the land. Initially they wanted to auction it – but they were also more than willing to sell it to anyone who could cough up three billion in cash. It happens that Chen Xiaobei had the same exact amount in his bank account, which was why he said yes without thinking twice.

“I can always earn back the money that I spent. The land, however, is extremely rare. And since land are considered real estate, my net worth is still four billion!”

After he hung up the call, Chen Xiaobei started to make plans. “Right now, I don’t have three billion… Guess I have to hold the auction I promised my fans as soon as possible.”

Suddenly, Feng Qingyang shouted for him.

“Sifu, come and take a look at this! That vampire’s body has completely decomposed, but it left something behind. The poison doesn’t seem to work on it either!”

“What? Something survived my poison?” Chen Xiaobei was stunned. He walked over to Feng Qingyang immediately to find palm-sized scale lying in a blood of pool on the floor. It was silver in color, and had a sharp thorn behind it.

“Judging its shape, it should belong to a snake…” Chen Xiaobei frowned. “But I don’t believe a snake as big as that exists in this world!”

“If the scale is as big as our palm, the entire snake should be as thick as giant trees and at least a hundred meters long! Perhaps it belongs to a dragon?!” Yap Liangchen let his imagination run wild.

“I don’t think so,” Feng Qingyang said, shaking his head. “The body of a real dragon is thicker by hundreds of meters. This scale is filled with Absolute Zero Yin Qi… It could be a creature I’ve heard of – they call it Yamato no Orochi in Japan. It has eight heads, and grows up to a hundred and eight meters!”

“Yamato no Orochi?!” Chen Xiaobei’s face lit up. He came across the name in manga and video games, but never thought that the creature was real! There just might be some truth to it too since the scale could not by his poison.

“Yamato no Orochi was a boss in a game that I played before!” Yap Liangchen exclaimed excitedly. “Players can acquire a lot of legendary items after killing it. Its eyes, fangs, venom, bone and even scales can be used to craft many kinds of powerful items!”

“Hehe… I must visit Japan as soon as possible after this!” Chen Xiaobei smiled, his eyebrows raised. “That vampire has such powerful Absolute Zero Yin Qi with only one scale, could you imagine how powerful we can be if we kill the snake?!”

“Sifu, when are you planning to go?” Feng Qingyang asked. The old man was clearly thrilled, too.

“Shouldn’t be too long. I’ll go once I deal with all the small matters I still have on hand in Dragon City!” Chen Xiaobei smiled, and pocketed the scale before leaving the mountain with the two.

After that, Chen Xiaobei spent a few days with Luo Puti at different government departments in Dragon City to handle all sorts of paperwork. It was time-consuming, but he eventually claimed ownership over the land.

According to her, Chen Xiaobei could ask for help from the Six Doors Organization if anyone was bold enough to mess with him. However, he knows that Jianghu matters have to be solved in Jianghu itself.

It was an unspoken rule that tends to negate outside influence including that of organizations such as Six Doors. Ultimately, it remained that anyone who steps into Jianghu needs to become powerful enough to defend himself and walk tall!

“The Red Envelope Snatching Session is today!” Chen Xiaobei said. He finally got some free time to himself – he was ready to snatch some Red Envelopes!

Chapter 473: The Second Candidate

Chen Xiaobei bought a stack of spicy sticks, WaHaHa High-Cal Milk and sausages for the Red Envelope Snatching Session. He locked himself inside his room right after dinner.

NeZha: Wow! God Chen is online! (Excited)

Wei Xiaobao: Quick! Quick! Quick! Bring in the Red Envelopes! Both my hands are ready!! (Rubbing hands)

Bull Demon King: I think this is going to be huge – Most Chanism deities are joining this Red Envelope Snatching Session as well. Hit me! Bro Bei!

Chen Xiaobei: Everyone, no rush…Lei Zhenzi! Cough! Cough! It’s time for you to greet me!

Lei Zhenzi: Uhm…Here I am to welcome Shishu Xiaobei!

Chen Xiaobei: Good boy!

Lei Zhenzi: … (Speechless)

Chen Xiaobei could totally imagine how frustrated Lei Zhenzi was – the deity must have wished that he could slap him through his cellphone. It was the worst kind of humiliation especially for a deity that likes to act all high and mighty. Now, he paid the price of losing a bet with Chen Xiaobei and was forced to do what a mortal told him!

Taiyi Zhenren: Great! Let’s get the Red Envelopes rolling! After that, we have something important to discuss!

‘If I’m not mistaken, Taiyi Zhenren is one of the Twelve Golden Deities and NeZha’s Sifu. I should show some respect!’ Chen Xiaobei thought and shrugged. He stopped messing with Lei Zhenzi, and opened his treasure chest to pour thousands of Red Envelopes into the group. At the same time, the other group members sent in the Red Envelopes they prepared earlier as well.

Ding!

[Taiyi Zhenren just send a Red Envelope to the group!]

Ding!

[Yuding Zhenren just send a Red Envelope to the group!]

Ding!

[Yun Zhongzi just send a Red Envelope to the group!]

“Seems like the members of Chanism are pretty generous this time! Let me snatch all their Red Envelopes!” Channeling all his strength into his fingers Chen Xiaobei started to tap his cellphone with lightning speed.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Yuding Zhenren! You have received a Green Jade Tripod! It had been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Hahaha! First blood! That was quick, and it seems like my luck is working just fine too. Bring it on! More!” Chen Xiaobei was really excited. His luck has increased to sixteen thousand after receiving one hundred and sixty thousand merit points from Jiang Ziya, and that should get him a few Red Envelopes today!

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Taiyi Zhenren! You have received a book called Taiyi Pill Crafting Manual! It had been stored inside your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Duer Zhenren! You have received a ball called Bone Burning Pill Recipe! It had been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“What the hell? I thought the members of Chanism were becoming more generous? Why do they keep sending out all these pill recipes? It’s useless crap… Oh well. I’ll just keep snatching more Red Envelopes!”

Chen Xiaobei kept pressing on his cellphone like a mad person since he did not acquire any other item except for the Green Jade Cauldron.

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Lei Zhenzi! You have received a piece of Wind Thunder Divine Stone! It had been stored inside your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulations! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Tu Xingshun. You have received a Tracking Flag! It had been stored in your treasure chest!]

Ding!

[Congratulation! You have snatched a Red Envelope from Bull Demon King. You have received a small number of Golden Eyes Divine Lion’s fur. It had been stored inside your treasure chest!]

“Hahaha! A hat-trick… This is awesome!” Chen Xiaobei leapt up from his seat happily. He could face see Lei Zhenzi’s face when he realized Chen Xiaobei himself snatched his Red Envelope.

Afterwards, the Red Envelope Snatching Session finally ended. However, the group was still quite animated; most of the members in the group was trying the delicacies Chen Xiaobei sent. This was also the first time the Chanism gods had a taste of the food from Earth.

Yun Zhongzi: Wow! This spicy stick is so damn delicious! I hear people talk about it all the time, but it really lives up to its reputation!

Huanglong Zhenren: The sausage tastes pretty good as well! I love its texture!

Randeng Daoren: WaHaHa High-Cal Milk is the best! It’s not too sweet and also extremely refreshing! It’s too awesome!

‘The Chanism fellows are really excited when they tried those stuff, the old timers a lot less. Seems like I need to bring in something new next time!’ Chen Xiaobei thought. It had been some time since the group members asked for delicacies from him too – he probably needs to introduce new food next time round.

On the other hand, he was quite happy to snatch six Red Envelopes!

Jiang Ziya: Cough! I think everyone had fun during the Red Envelope Snatching Session earlier, but now, it’s time for serious business!

Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King: What kind of serious business?

Jiang Ziya: The Three Realms Mission. Earlier, Shaoba Xingjun had made a great achievement – even the Primeval Lord of Heaven was really proud of him. He also wants to show his gratitude for Chen Xiaobei’s help as well!

“What does he mean? Could it be that old bastard finally comes to his sense to give me some reward?” Chen was actually looking forward to the reward. However, he didn’t receive any Red Envelope after waiting for some time.

Jiang Ziya: Cough! What are you guys doing? Clap!

Lei Zhenzi: (Clapping)

Taiyi Zhenren: (Clapping)

Yuding Zhenren: Agree with them

“What the f*ck?! That’s how you show your gratitude? Absolutely un acceptable!” Chen Xiaobei could not help rolling his eyes. He felt na?ve for thinking that the Primeval Lord of Heaven changed for the better.

Jiang Ziya: Alright, stop clapping. Now, let’s talk about the second candidate who is going to the human realm!

His text made everyone excited again.

NeZha: Me! Me! Me! I want to be the second one!

Zhu Bajie: I want to be the second one! God Chen is awesome, he managed to use game to recruit disciples! It’s perfect for lazy people like me!

Hong Haier: Choose me! Choose me! I’m not going to tell you guys the reason…Hehehe…

Chang’e: I was the first one that volunteer myself last time. Can’t I go this time? I don’t care, you guys must choose me!

Monkey King: I’m going to keep registering. I’ll leave the decision to you people!

Xiao Tianquan: Likewise.

Yanwang: Likewise, too…

Jiang Ziya: Silence! Everyone! Silent! The old rule applies – register first, we’ll draw lots afterwards!

“Tut! Drawing lots again…””Chen Xiaobei rolled his eyes. “This completely lacks transparency. I bet they have already decided on the second candidate, and it’s going to be another dude who would mess with me again!”

“But there’s nothing for me to fear. Keep sending them – I’ll cut them down to size, and slap the lot of you with an unexpected ending!”

Chapter 474: The Best Kind of Luck

After a short wait, the whole group became active again.

Jiang Ziya: There are special circumstance this time – two deities would travel to the human realm to carry out the mission!

“Would you just look at this bullshit! This is obviously a well thought out conspiracy. And what happened to drawing lots?! This is some next level fake crap!” Chen Xiaobei rolled his eyes.

Lei Zhenzi: Wow! What a coincidence? Two deities at the same time?! (Shocking)

Tu Xingshun: Who are they? Could it be me?

Shen Gongpao: I wish I’ll be chosen to carry out this mission!

‘Fuck! All these Chanism members are some of the finest liars! Well, I can’t really care anymore… Just send me whoever you like, and I’ll slap your face with result!’ Chen Xiaobei thought.

Jiang Ziya: I’ll announce the name of the deities travelling to the human realm now! They are… NeZha and Hong Haier!

NeZha: Wow! I’m chosen this time! This is awesome… I’m going to the human realm and have fun! Don’t miss me too much! (Excited)

Hong Haier: Hehe! This perv is going to travel to human realm. My perv comrades, better luck next time!

The whole group became animated once more after Jiang Jiya announced the result.

‘What the hell is going on? I’m quite close with the both of them… What on earth is Jiang Jiya trying to pull? I don’t buy it – It’s impossible for him to send two of my best bros out of kindness!’ Chen Xiaobei thought.

NeZha: When can we travel to the human realm? I can’t wait to meet with God Chen!

Jiang Ziya: Not now! The portal is not malfunctioning, it could only transport one deity after some time. The Primeval Lord of Heaven is trying to fix the issue, you two might need to wait for a few days!

NeZha: Okay, it’s just a few days…God Chen, wait for me!

Hong Haier: What kind of skills can we bring with us when we travel to human realm? I did a quick check on the chat history and I saw Shaoba Xingjun brought the Mouth of Curses with him. I want to bring my Sanmei True Fire with me!

NeZha: I want to bring my two other heads and four arms with me!

“Stop being so na?ve! Jiang Jiya would never allow you two to bring such powerful skills to the human realm!” Chen Xiaobei sighed.

Jiang Ziya: Hong Haier, you are hereby allowed to bring your Sanmei True Fire with you. However, you are not to hurt a single lifeform, or you will face serious consequences!

Hong Haier: Yay! Grandpa Jiang is really kind! Muacks!

“Huh? That’s so weird! Why did Jiang Jiya say yes to Hong Haier without questions?” Chen Xiaobei was stunned.

Then it came to him. ‘I get it! Sanmei True Fire is divine fire that destroys everything in sight, and no one on Earth could put it out. When the time comes, Jiang Jiya will punsish Hong Haier, and I’ll be blamed as well! Fuck! That manipulative bastard!’

Chen Xiaobei initially thought that Jiang Jiya was kind enough to allow Hong Haier to bring his signature skill with him to travel to the human realm. Ultimately, the kid would only be a time bomb for Chen Xiaobei.

‘F*ck! F*ck! F*ck! It’s actually better for him not to bring this skill!’ Chen Xiaobei cursed Jiang inside his mind.

NeZha: How about me? Can I bring the skill that I requested?

Jiang Jiya: No way! You would cause a huge panic amongst the mortals if they saw your three heads and six arms. The skill that you are bringing with you to the human realm will be… Acting cute!

NeZha: I…

“What the f*ck?!” Chen Xiaobei leapt from his seat and scolded. “Motherfucker! That’s pure bullshit – acting cute is not a fucking skill!”

Jiang Ziya: Anyway, that’s that. You two, come meet me separately later. I want to tell you something about human realm!

And with that, Jiang Jiya left the group, while the other members of Red Envelope Group chattered away about Jiang Jiya’s decision.

Chen Xiaobei inhaled deeply to calm himself.

‘I don’t really care about the skill they will carry anymore. Fortunately, both of them are pretty cute – I think they will attract a lot of viewers if I get them into streaming! In the very least, I don’t have to worry about Jiang Jiya setting me up!’

Setting that thought aside, Chen Xiaobei took a look at the items he just acquired.

Ding!

[Golden Eyes Divine Lion Fur: Bull Demon King pulled it from the tail of a mystical creature! It’s a Three-Stars Spiritual Item and can be used to craft certain items. Do you want to take it?]

“Crafting item? I don’t really need it…Whatever! Next…” Chen Xiaobei said, his mouth twitching.

Ding!

[Wind Thunder Divine Stone: Lei Zhenzi picked it up under the Wind Thunder Holy Tree. It contains pure Wind Thunder Qi. It can be used as the foundation of Wind Thunder Attribute Force Field. Do you want to take it?]

‘Foundation for a force field? Monkey bro told me that the Tesseract Thunder Pool needs Thunder Pool Force Field to serve as its source of power… And I can use the Wind Thunder Divine Stone as its foundation. What a coincidence!’ Chen Xiaobei thought.

Ding!

[Puzzle Flag: crafted by Tu Xingshun. It’s a Three-Stars Spiritual Item. It can be used to setup the Puzzle Formation. Do you want to take it?]

“Puzzle Formation? Pretty useful – the land I just bought is surrounded by mountains, and my foes won’t not be able to find its entrance if I set this formation around it! How much of a coincidence is this?’ Chen Xiaobei thought.

Ding!

[Taiyi Pill Crafting Manual: written by Taiyi Zhenren. One can create Taiyi Pill with this recipe, a pill that heals internal injuries and is especially effective against Dantian injuries. Do you want to take it?]

“What the hell! Another coincidence? And here I was thinking how I could recover Feng Qingyang’s cultivation. I need this pill the most right now!” Chen Xiaobei exclaimed in surprise.

Ding!

[Bone Burning Pill Recipe: written by Duer Zhenren. Bone Burning Pill can be used to shorten the lifespan of a person while increasing their combat power! Do you want to take it?]

‘This pill is similar to the Flaming Pill created by Poison Rat from Hundred Beasts Faction, although I believe the Bone Burning Pill is going to be more effective since it’s a divine item. It can be sold at a high price even if I don’t use it!’ Chen Xiaobei thought.

Another huge coincidence too!

Ding!

[Green Jade Cauldron: Crafted by Yuding Zhenren, it’s an essential tool to craft Nine-Stars Spiritual Item or items below that! Do you want to take it?]

“Damn! What is happening? I really needed this item right now to cook those pills, and this Green Jade Tripod just dropped on my head from heaven!” Chen Xiaobei said chipperly.

“Hold on, this isn’t coincidence – it’s luck! This time, there’s no super valuable item during the Red Envelope Snatching Session… so the title of Lucky King is not applicable. In other words, luck helped me acquire all the items I need right now!”

Chapter 475: Lin Xiang’s Beautiful Picture

The next morning…

Chen Xiaobei was not doing anything in particular. He had breakfast with his family as well as Old Wang and Cangjin Gu, with his mother having to wake up earlier to prepare breakfast and clean the house. In a few days, NeZha and Hong Haier would be coming to stay with him – and her workload would increase too!

Chen Xiaobei thought about looking for a woman to help his mother since he is usually away from home. Luo Puti was the first who came to mind since she is quite close to his mother and was really hardworking too. However, he knew she would never agree to it, and there was not a thing he could do about it.

While Song Qincheng is another great candidate, Wenyuan would definitely tag along with her if she came. Things would turn ugly since Wenyuan thirsted for his virginity.

Suddenly, the face of another beautiful woman popped up in his mind.

“I wonder how Xiang Xiang is doing…”

In truth, Chen Xiaobei really missed Lin Xiang, but he refrained from contacting her because of the secret mission. Luo Puti had also told him that he was not allowed to contact her until the government gave both her and her brother Lin Nan new identities.

“Guess I should wait…” Chen Xiaobei took out his cellphone and hesitated, before suppressing his urge to contact Lin Xiang. Therefore, he logged in to his Weibo to check out his fanbase – which had increased to six hundred and thirty thousand, with most of them being… doctors.

‘They must’ve came after Madam Diana’s case,’ Chen Xiaobei thought. ‘Still, I think my current charm should have attracted more fans. The increase in fans is kind of little, but my newly gained luck was working fine last night. I wonder when my charm would activate?’

After that, he returned to his room and kept started modifying various martial art manuals. He needed the money, which was why he was working harder now.

Last time around, Chen Xiaobei managed to modify two manuals: the Breast-Groping Dragon Claw was changed to the Hearth Gouging Dragon Claw, and the Seventy-Two Ways to Get Laid was changed to Seven-Two Ways to Master Ringen.

This time, he changed The Ultimate Rod Skill of Luohan to Divine Dragon Rod Skill and God Strength King Kong Kick to Ultimate King Kong Kick. He was also smart enough to slip significant weaknesses into the newly modified skills, since there was a chance that opponents might purchase his skill books just to use it against him.

Chen Xiaobei also remembered to post a few lines from the newly modified skill book to Weibo. Soon, a new wave of fans came pouring into his fan base, although the wave is definitely much smaller now.

In other words, his post was not making enough waves. Now, he has to wait for other opportunity to increase his fan base by the ton!

Ding!

Chen Xiaobei’s cellphone rang suddenly when he started to work on the third martial art manual.

“Eh? Xiang Xiang just send me a picture of herself… Seems like she has a new identity now!” His face was all lit-up; he never expected a text from her today. Tapping on the notification, he was then welcomed with a rather sensual photograph.

Lin Xiang was lying in the bathtub in the image; her fair and smooth skin reflecting the bathroom light. There was no doubt that the focus of the image was her voluptuous breasts, as well as the rose petals floating in the bathtub that concealed her naughty bits! It’s far more seductive than the naked image of a woman!

Chen Xiaobei received another message right after that.

Ding!

[The time to deflower the rose iz now – don’t wait until the rose petals fall!]

“Damn! This is no code – it’s so straightforward! She’s asking me to take her virginity… Well, I guess it’s time to lose my virginity as well! Hehehehe…” Without any hesitation, he searched through his contact list and made a call to Lin Nan instead of Lin Xiang.

“Asshole! How dare you use your sister’s cellphone to mess with me? Are you looking for a beating?” Chen Xiaobei scolded him with a smile.

“Damn it, you’re good! How did you know I was the one that send you the picture?” Lin Nan asked.

“That’s easy.” Chen Xiaobei said. “My Lin Xiang is a genuine lady! She’ll never such lewd imagery to me – she would send a normal selfie at most. Also, there’s a spelling mistake in your message, and could tell at once it was you from that!”

“Not bad, brother-in-law. I’m truly impressed by your skills of observation! The amount of respect I have for you is comparable to the amount of water in the seven seas!” Lin Nan said, his boot-licking mode activated.

“Fine, whatever. Just cut the crap. Why are you looking for me?” Chen Xiaobei cut him short – it was going to be a winding conversation if he did not stop Lin Nan’s groveling.

“I’ve already told you. Flocks of men are trying to pursue my beautiful sister since she arrived at Dragon City! You really need to take action before someone pluck the flower!” Lin Nan said seriously.

“What?!” Chen Xiaobei frowned. “Who the hell is trying to pursue my Lin Xiang?! Tell me your location, I’m coming over right now!”

“No rush. I’ll send you an address later. There will be a birthday party there tonight, just meet us and give my sister a pleasant surprise!” Lin Nan said mysteriously.

“Whose birthday party is that?” Chen Xiaobei asked. “Today is not Xiang Xiang’s birthday…”

“It’s the birthday party of our new friend. But that’s not important, just prepare yourself!”

“Prepare? What do you want me to prepare?”

“Don’t try to act pure!” Lin Nan giggled evilly. “Groom yourself and dress up nicely. Also, don’t forget to put a condom in your pocket!”

“Damn you!” Chen Xiaobei felt a weird sense of defeat.

“I’m not going home tonight, and I won’t call my sister as well. What do you think? I’m so nice, right? You don’t have to thank me, brother-in-law! It’s what I should do!” Lin Nan grinned.

“Bastard. Your sister is going to skin you alive if she heard you!” Chen Xiaobei scolded him albeit with a smile.

“Tut… My sister misses you a lot! She’ll never scold me!”

“Fine, let’s drop the bullshit. Back to serious business: which brand of condom is the best?” Chen Xiaobei asked seriously.

“I’m the right person to ask… Hehehe…” Lin Nan smirked, and started to describe all his sexual experience vividly.

Chapter 476: A Fight Between Two Love Rivals

It was 8pm.

Chen Xiaobei drove to a mansion near Xuanwu Lake. He had everything prepared as Lin Nan suggested – he had groomed himself to look more handsome than he usually was, while bringing along a box of Extra Thin Durex.

This may be his first time, but he firmly believed that he would last for seven to eight rounds, and so simply took the whole box along.

“Everything is ready, only… Hmmm…”

He was walking towards the mansion in his handsome outfit, but he was stopped by a security guard.

“Who are you?” He asked, narrowing his eyes and glowering at his car with disdain.

Is that prick making light of his two million-dollar Mercedes Benz?

Chen Xiaobei swept his gaze across mansion and found prestige cars strewn around the parking lot, including many Bentleys and Rolls-Royce. Clearly this security guard was so used to looking at all those supercars he could not care less about Chen Xiaobei and his paltry Benz. And judging from the guard’s attitude, the mansion’s owner is definitely someone of considerable standing!

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, Chen Xiaobei would not have believed that Lin Xiang and Lin Nan have managed to bypass the social ladder and rocketed into this glamorous social circle.

Such an incredible promotion!

“I am Lin Nan’s guest.” Chen Xiaobei answered coolly.

“Lin Nan? Who is Lin Nan? There’s no Lin Nan here!” The guard shot back rudely. “Don’t think I don’t know you’re just trying to sneak in and stick your grimy fingers on the VIPs! I’ve seen more than my share of smarty-pants like you. Leave! Don’t block the entrance!”

“Let me make a call!” Chen Xioabei was incredibly frustrated. He dialed Lin Nan’s number immediately and screamed: “Oi, you piece of shit! I’m at the address you sent me but the security guard said he doesn’t know you!”

“Hang on, brother-in-law – I’m coming to get you!” Lin Nan quickly hung up.

Soon, two men in suits were running over to them.

The one in front was Lin Nan. It was clear the brat has really changed entirely – sleek hair, expensive suit, and shiny leather shoes, plus his natural good looks and skin that resembled that of Lin Xian’s – all of which made him look incredibly dashing!

At the age of sixteen, he was definitely a charming fresh meat to socialites, especially compared to the man running next to him – who looked to be in his forties. Still, Chen Xiaobei could tell that despite his ordinary looks he possessed twenty thousand combat power. There was no question that he was the bodyguard appointed by the government for the siblings!

“Master Nan!” The guard immediately put on a huge smile and greeted him subserviently. “Please be careful!”

“Dumbass! How dare you make my big brother wait outside the gate?! Do you want to die?” Lin Nan was curt. Though he has completely transformed in physical appearance, he has not changed in his mannerisms.

“Your… Your big brother?” The guard looked at Chen Xiaobei rather unnervingly.

“That’s right, my big brother!” Lin Nan glared at him.

“I… I didn’t know your full name is Lin Nan… It’s my fault… It’s my fault…I’m sorry…” The guard looked absolutely petrified and kept apologizing between bows.

“Fine, forget about it. I’ll let this slide since you didn’t know.” While Lin Nan was bad tempered, he was also still reasonable. He waved the guard away, dismissing him, before walking up to welcome Chen Xiaobei.

“Brother-in-law, it’s my fault!” Lin Nan grinned like an idiot as he led Chen Xiaobei into the mansion. “I should have waited for you, but a couple of idiots browbeat me into playing cards with them, and soon I forgot what time it was. Come, please come!”

Looking at them, the guard sweated and recalled how his own master had welcomed Lin Nan in the same way. The strong would always be respected by the weak – that’s simply how society works!

“Just… Who the hell is that young man? He only drives a Mercedes… That’s way too low key…” The guard swallowed, thankful that Lin Nan did not dwell on the issue – he would have been given the boot otherwise.

“Acting low-key is the best way to gloat!” The twenty-thousand combat power bodyguard said and followed behind the two, leaving the guard to figure things out.

Inside the mansion.

The courtyard is where the party was. Upon neatly arranged tables were a wide assortment of exotic dishes, desserts and alcohol. Every man and woman present must be from the so-called upper-class too; all of them were clad in refined, lavish clothing.

It was quite the debonair event.

“Master Nan! Is that really your friend?” Another young man dressed in a white tuxedo and escorted by a cluster of people came to them.

“Brother Bai!” Lin Nan nodded and smiled. “Let me do the introductions. This is my sister’s and my own best friend, Chen Xiaobei!” He said, placing extra emphasis on the word ‘best’.

His words seemed to carry a lot of weight too – especially given his newfound status. When the others heard him, they nodded and smiled at Chen Xiaobei as a gesture of geniality. Only the youth in the white tuxedo watched him with a flash of enmity.

But Lin Nan seemed not to notice. “This is the birthday boy and today’s star – Bai Zhunyu! This mansion is his!”

Chen Xiaobei heard him, but could not be bothered to even give the other man a glance. He combed the place, and glanced at every direction other than Bai Zhunyu’s as he searched for Lin Xiang.

That, naturally, incensed the owner of the house. He was today’s star and yet, Chen Xiaobei glazed over him in front of his own audience. He could feel a heavy slap on his face!

If it were anyone else, Bai Zhunyu would already have thrown a tantrum. However, he calmed himself down, and spared Lin Nan’s face

“I heard that Lady Lin used to date someone. It couldn’t be this guy, could it?” He asked

“Oh, I won’t hide it since you already know.” Lin Nan laughed light-heartedly, “Actually, he is my sister’s boyfriend. I always call him my brother-in-law.”

The crowd stared blankly, their opinion of Chen Xiaobei quickly turning from companionship to veneration. Lin Nan’s brother-in-law, Lin Xiang’s boyfriend… That was not someone you want to cross!

On the other hand, the animosity in Bai Zhunyu’s eyes only intensified. “Master Nan, you know very well that I am courting Lady Lin Xiang at the moment,” he seethed. “It’s not right to bring my love rival to my birthday!”

“All is fair in love and war,” Lin Nan smirked. “If you two don’t fight, how would I know which amongst you is worthy of my sister’s hand?”

“Fight? How come I didn’t know about this?” Chen Xiaobei asked, baffled.

“Brother-in-law!” Lin Nan hurried to his side and whispered into his ear. “This fly has been harassing my sister for a long time. I invited you here so that you could swat him permanently!”

Chen Xiaobei quickly nodded, catching his drift. “Fly. Annoying. Leave it to me then!”

“Fight? There’s no need. My net worth is two billion, I’m the CFO of the Lintian Organization and a close friend of Master Yap. What is your name again? Che… Chan? Damn it, I can’t remember. Do you even think you can hold up against me?”

Chapter 477: A Cheap Trick

Brazenly showing off his wealth – and a paltry two billion at that? Chen Xiaobei merely smiled in cavalier, while shooting Bai Zhunyu a soft glare of disdain.

Lin Nan, on the other hand, said pridefully, “Brother Bai, don’t disparage others! Green Vine’s most esteemed Beicheng jewelry store, factory of Kidney Treasures and First Love Peach farm are all my brother-in-law’s estate. He definitely wouldn’t lose out to you!”

“Huh? So, he’s that internet celebrity?” Bai Zhunyu raised his eyebrows in surprise as the crowd broke into chatter. Though they had never seen him, they did hear of his feats – especially about the First Love Peach that went viral!

As they looked on in amazement, Chen Xiaobei chuckled but said nothing. If he were to tell them that he had just bought a land worth three-billion-yuan land, who knows how the crowd would react! And that would have been more interesting too!

Meanwhile, Bai Zhunyu’s face darkened. “Alright. Even if his wealth is similar to ours, how is he better than me? Surely you can’t believe that a small internet celebrity deserves Lin Xiang!

“Ah…” Lin Nan was dumbstruck and unable to reply.

“I’m the CFO of the Lintian Organization, Master Yap is my close friend! How does he even compare to me?” Bai Zhunyu repeated himself; he was clearly very proud of that title.

Lin Nan kept quiet.

“Lintian Organization? Yap Tianlin’s company?” Chen Xiaobei asked, narrowed his eyes.

“Hehe! Do you even need to ask?” Bai Zhunyun’s face lit up with smugness at once. “His company is always listed in the country’s top hundred. How could you not know that? What a hick! Can’t match up to me now, huh? Face the facts – you’re just a stupid internet celebrity who got lucky earning a couple of bucks investing. Who gave you the idea that you’re some kind of big shot?

Chen Xiaobei kept calm and did not take his words to heart, although he was quite curious about the name ‘Yap Tianlin’ he kept throwing around. He had been hearing that name ever since he arrived in Dragon City – and if a financial director was as cocky as this, what about Yap Tianlin himself?

“No words? Already scared by Master Yap’s reputation alone?” Bai Zhunyu taunted as he became bolder. “You should know that I have prepared a very special gift for Lady Lin. I’m going to confess my love to her – in fact, Master Yap will be video-calling us later to show his support for me!”

“My goodness! Boss Bai had even sought Master Yap’s succor… What a huge honor!

“No wonder Boss Bai invited so many VIPs today. He’s definitely getting the girl today!”

“Surely Lady Lin won’t turn him down with Master Yao’s help! I think I’ll congratulate Boss Bai in advance!”

The crowd quickly tried to curry favor with Bai Zhunyu, cheering and applauding him on. The atmosphere was absolutely stirring.

“Motherfucker! This slug is absolutely treacherous… He actually used such a cheap trick!” Lin Nan panicked, and scurried beside Chen Xiaobei and whispered into his ear. “Brother-in-law, it’s my fault – I didn’t know he’d be playing dirty. What are we going to do? What if you lose to him in front of all these people? That would be a problem in the future!”

“Don’t worry. This piece of garbage won’t win.” Chen Xiaobei shrugged, not even bothering to lower his voice.

Bai Zhunyu, who was reveling in the crowd’s plaudits heard him, and instantly burned with anger. “So. You’re not giving up? Thick-skinned worm! Then tell me, how do you measure up to me? Tell me! Tell me!”

The others also turned to Chen Xiaobei. Their gaze was mocking, as if they were eager to see him make a fool of himself. In their minds, Bai Zhunyu was backed up by Yap Tianlin, and Chen Xiaobei could not possibly top that!

Lin Nan was well aware of that, and started sweating buckets.

Only Chen Xiaobei was smiling, “The status that you are so proud of is only temporary. Who knows? Maybe someday you might wake up and realize that it’s gone!”

“Brat, didn’t you bring your brain along with you?” Bai Zhunyu laughed scornfully. “Is there anyone here who doesn’t know that Master Yap and I are childhood friends? Do you even know what that means? It means that we grew up together! My position in the Tianlin Organization is rock-solid. How could I possibly lose my job?”

“Nothing is set in stone,” Chen Xiaobei shrugged. “Nobody knows what will happen next!”

“Hmph! Looking for excuses? You obviously aren’t my equal!” Bai Zhunyu laughed again. “Since you insist on not giving up, stay and watch – you’re in for a treat! In a while, you’ll watch as Ms. Lin accept my proposal, and fall into my arms!”

“Hehe, you remind me of a classic story!” Chen Xiaobei ginned from ear to ear.

“What story?”

Chen Xiaobei raised his eyebrows. “Why… The story of the toad who wanted to eat the swan’s meat, of course.”

“Urgh…” Bai Zhunyu was so mad he started yelling. “Fucker! You’re no better! If I’m a toad, you are garbage! A speck of dust!”

Lin Nan could not help bursting into laughter as he watched Bai Zhunyu blow up, the crowd along with him.

It made him even more infuriated!

It was at that moment that a man who dressed in a security guard uniform walked to him. “Boss Bai,” he said. “Boss Yap’s meeting has just concluded. He can now come online!”

“Alright, I’m going!” Bai Zhunyu’s face lit up immediately. He ignored the laughing crowd, turned and left.

The servant followed, and whispered into his master’s ear, “There’s something else. Ms. Wang is here…”

“Shit. That sly bitch really knows timing…” Bai Zhunyu’s eyes flashed coldly. “Pass the order to the others and keep her out. Don’t let her in!”

“Yes, sir…” The servant nodded and parted from him.

Back at the courtyard, Lin Nan’s face was scrunched up with worry. “I’ll bring you to my sister,” he told Chen Xiaobei. “We need to inform her beforehand or I’m scared she can’t handle the stress!”

Chen Xiaobei merely shook his head. “There’s no need to hurry. Anyway, I’m leaving for a bit. I’ve got something to deal with!”

“What could be more important than my sister?” Lin Nan asked anxiously, his brows raised in uncertainty.

“Never reveal your masterplan,” Chen Xiaobei smiled knowingly as he started to leave. “Go play around, I’ll come for you in a while.”

Lin Nan starred blankly behind him. What in the blazes would Chen Xiaobei need to do now?

In the bathroom.

Chen Xiaobei changed into Nightstalker Outfit and slipped out.

After a few minutes, the courtyard crowd started to gather in front of a small platform, where a humongous cake stood. There was also a projector on the right.

“Ladies and gentlemen! Today is my birthday. Other than every single one of you present, I have also invited two very important friends to come see this unforgettable moment!” Bai Zhunyu announced pompously on the stage.

“May I present to you… Mr. Yap Tianlin and Ms. Lin Xiang!”

Chapter 478: Family Heirloom

“Wow!”

The screen came to life, and a handsome young man appeared. He looked to be about twenty-seven, and he stood within a swanky office.

Clearly, he was one of four young masters of Dragon City, Yap Tianlin – the sole inheritor of the Tianlin Organization, the most influential trade and commerce organization in the nation! The prodigy of business in Dragon City!

Eyes gleamed. His presence attracted the attention of every single person present – even through a screen.

“Good evening!” A slow smile spread across Yap Tianlin’s handsome face. “Don’t stare at me. Let’s welcome Ms. Lin Xiang!”

The audience quickly turned their gaze towards the lady in question.

Perhaps by Lin Nan’s request, she had dressed up for the occasion. Her long sweeping hair was spread gracefully across her shoulders, the powdering work on her face was flawless. A light pink dress wrapped tightly around her sensuous body – accentuating her thirty-six sized breasts and her long fair legs through a slit!

Every man could not tear their gaze away from her while the women were in awe. She was such a stunning beauty!

‘I’m going up the stage…’

Like her brother, although Lin Xiang’s physical appearance has drastically changed she was still the same – timid, shy and unconfident. Her gentle, beautiful face turned beet red with so many stares leveled at her; her large twinkling eyes was welling with the distinct emotion of embarrassment.

‘Don’t be fooled by his good looks and genial smile,’ she thought as she glared at Bai Zhunyu. ‘Those who truly know him knows that this piece of work is actually a salacious pervert! He’s the type of man one would say idiotic things like no woman no life!’

Meanwhile, every male – including Yap Tianlin in the screen – was drooling at her presence.

Then, suddenly remembering why he was here in the first place, Yap Tianlin smiled. “Ms. Lin, the birthday boy has invited you in front of all these people. If you don’t come up here, wouldn’t that make him lose face?”

Even though he was not there in person, there was no mistaking the authority behind his words. It also seemed to affect the crowd a lot more – they started to urge her on, telling her that if she do not go up the stage, she was not giving face to the birthday boy, Yap Tianlin as well as everyone present.

“Since everyone is ordering me… How could I not go…” she murmured.

What else could she do but say yes?

As the crowd watched, Lin Xiang lowered her head and hurried up the stage; she took her first step when Chen Xiaobei walked up next to Lin Nan.

“Bother-in-law! Why are you so late?” Lin Nan furrowed. “That Bai guy is too disgusting. He knows that my sister is too meek, so he used the crowd to pressure her. Later, he will confess his love for her… I don’t know if my sister can stand it!”

“Don’t worry, everything is under control!” Chen Xiaobei grinned and looked sarcastic upon the stage.

That did not alleviate Lin Nan’s anxiety at all. “Things are at such a critical state, how could you ask me not to worry? Do you have a plan in mind?”

“A magician never reveals his secret. You’ll see.” Chen Xiaobei smiled.

On the stage.

After the formalities, Bai Zhunyu dove eagerly into the main topic, “Today,” he declared proudly, “I’ve actually invited Master Yap and Ms. Lim here for something more important than my birthday.”

“Master Yap is my best friend and a leader whom I truly respect – which is why I wanted to profess my feelings to the woman I love with him as my witness!”

Lin Xiang froze.

She may be timid, but she is not stupid. She immediately understood what Bai Zhunyu was trying to pull, and quickly made up her mind that she would not make any big promise.

In this very moment, she was completely helpless and directionless. When she thought back to how the crowd were pressuring her, her head spun and her brain became scrambled.

“Lady Lin, don’t be afraid!” Yap Tianlin smiled pretentiously. “Zhunyu is a wonderful person – not only does he has a great personality, he also has a very good work ethic. As a leader Lintian Organization, his future is brighter than the stars in the sky!”

Lin Xiang was unhinged. She was at a loss of how to respond – not that Yap Tianlin would give her the chance to reply.

“Birthday boy!” He quickly prompted. “What are you waiting for? Lady Lin has already acquiesced, hurry up and start!”

“Right, yes, yes, yes!” Bai Zhunyu nodded, and clapped pretentiously. A soft, romantic melody started to play.

The guard pushed a gorgeous float over. On it were thousands of roses arranged in the shape of a heart, and in the center was a box covered in red silk linen.

It appeared to be a gift for Lin Xiang.

“Wow, Boss Bai is so romantic! Look at all those roses… Who wouldn’t like that?”

“Yeah! Yeah! If any guy declares their love for me with that, I won’t even think twice!”

“I heard that Boss Bai even prepared another mystery present for her. How lovely!”

“Alright, alright! Keep quiet, Boss Bai is down on one knee!”

The crowd was wild with excitement. They could not wait to see this romantic scene unfold.

Right now, Lin Nan was like a cat on hot bricks. “Brother-in-law!” he squealed. “What is your plan? Do something, my sister is trapped! If you don’t do anything now, she won’t be able to hold on!”

“Just wait and see.” Chen Xiaobei’s expression was impassive, as if he was not bothered by whatever was happening in the least.

The float has already been pushed before Lin Xiang. Next to it, Bai Zhunyu was down on one knee and prepared to make his love known.

“Xiang Xiang!” He exclaimed passionately. “From the first time I laid my eyes on you, I have already fallen in love with you – blah-blah-blah, not even Mr.Author has time for this – I hope you’ll reciprocate my feelings. By the gods, I swear that the sole intention of all this is to marry you!”

Lin Xiang’s mind went blank. She had this terrible urge to slap him in the face, but she was too gentle to do something like that. All could she do was stand there, looking disconcerted.

A look of everything-is-working-as-intended flashed through Bai Zhunyu’s eyes. He then reached for the red silk linen on the float.

“Xiang Xiang… To prove my sincerity, here’s a gift!” Bai Zhunyu continued ceremoniously, “This is a family treasure of mine that has been passed down from generation to generation. It’s of extraordinary significance, and normally would be kept in a safe. But I took it out expressively for you, and I promise that you’ll really like them!”

*Whoosh*

After his words, Bai Zhunyu undid the silk covers, and the murmuring crowd was instantly silenced.

*Slap!*

Somehow, Lin Xiang had regained her strength, lifted her hand and landed her palm on Bai Zhunyu’s face.

“You flagrant bastard!” She screamed as she hurried down the stage.

“I… Why am I a bastard?” Bai Zhunyu was completely unnerved. He turned to look at the box in his hand, and right in the center of the heart-shaped roses within was a box of Durex!

And it was the ultra-slim type!

Chapter 479: Vomiting Blood From Rage

“What the hell! Where is my heirloom, the Hetian Jade? How did it turn into Du… Du… Du…”

Bai Zhunyu was livid, but could not utter another word. His face had turned tomato red, and he could fell blood gushing out from his mouth!

On the big screen, Yap Tianlin’s face darkened. He was clearly not too happy either.

Suddenly, a shout rang, clearly intending of adding oil to fire.

“What the fuck! Boss Bai! Your family is simply amazing! So you people treat a pack of Durex as a heirloom? It’s fucking amazing!”

*Blaaaargh*

His frustration blowing past his limit, Bai Zhunyu could not stop himself from spurting out a mouthful of blood. There was no way to wiggle himself out of this one.

Meanwhile, the crowd slowly recovered and started chattering away – their comments came wave after wave, each dealing a further blow on Bai Zhunyu.

“Did Boss Bai lose his mind? But… presenting a packet of Durex in public place like this, he is really too damn cool…”

“You’re right. However, Lady Lin is a reputable and upright lady. He is obviously trying to kill his own standing in society, giving a packet of Durex to Lady Lin as present. It’s a whole new threshold of making a fool of himself!”

“Boss Bai, just do it! Your heart and guts are truly lecherous. I respect you for being a real gentleman!”

The crowd stared at Bai Zhunyu as if a clown on stage despite their shock as the man himself stood, bewildered and frozen on the platform. He needed a hole he could dive into so badly – it was his first time experiencing such an embarrassing moment!

All of a sudden, a familiar voice could be heard from the crowd.

“Boss Yap! Earlier, you mentioned that Bai Zhunyu is a man with good traits and a leader in the Tianlin Organization! Giving a packet of Durex to a lady as a gift in public is definitely a good idea. It’s no wonder your company can be so successful – you people are insane!”

Everyone was left dumbstruck once more, and tried to look for the culprit.

“That guy is awesome! Seems like it wasn’t fun enough for him to slap Bai Zhunyu’s face – he’s now slapping Yap Tianlin too! The madman!”

In the end, they could not find who said it, because Chen Xiaobei was the had used True Sound Mastery to spread his voice, making it impossible for others to locate where it come from.

Lin Nan himself knew the truth, and was force to keep holding on to his own stomach and laugh out loud.

“Goddamn! My brother-in-law, you are a god. How did you do something so awesome?”

“What did I do? How come I have no idea?” Chen Xiaobei smiled innocently despite knowing that all credit belonged to him.

The crowd eventually gave up on looking for the culprit of incitement after a while, and turned their attention to the big screen – where Lin Xiang stood, questioning Yap Tianlin.

“Boos Yap, you’re my brother’s first friend in Dragon City but also the one who introduced this lecherous bastard, Bai Zhunyu to us. I don’t want anything to do with you anymore if you fail to give me a proper explanation!”

Yap Tianlin frowned and spoke solemnly after weighing the matter seriously.

“I’m also really surprised that this sort of thing happened under my nose. I never thought that Bai Zhunyu was such a hypocrite, and I’m truly sorry for this shameless act. However, he also brought shame to the Tianlin Organization, and I will therefore make it official – Bai Zhunyu no longer has any ties with our company and its various subsidiaries, nor will we reconsider having him with us.”

Tears cascaded down Bao Zhunyu’s cheek after hearing that he was getting the sack.

“Master Yap! Boss Yap! You can’t fire me… Have you forgotten that both of us are friends since young? Didn’t you promise never to fire me whatever happens? Please… I beg you… Don’t fire me… Just demote me! I’m willing to have a lower position and less salary… Just don’t fire me…”

Bai Zhunyu knelt in front of the big screen and knocked his head on the stage floor.

The others sighed for his loss – the CFO position in Tianlin Organization was a highly coveted position. Removing Bai Zhunyu from the post was worse than killing him!

“Cut the crap. Nothing will change my mind!” Yap Tianlin roared. He might seem selfish and dictatorial, smarter individuals could tell that he was actually extremely upset – which was natural for having his hand forced as one of the four young masters of Dragon City.

“Lady Lin, are you satisfied now?” he turned to her. I’m leaving first if you are happy with my decision. I have another meeting I need to attend!”

“Boss Yap, feel free to leave – I’m leaving as well!” Lin Xiang replied coldly. Lin Nan, where are you? Stop fooling around, let’s go home!”

“Sister! Look who’s here!” Lin Nan pushed towards her from the crowd while Chen Xiaobei followed him slowly. Lin Xiang unwittingly purred as she saw the latter’s smile. She was bemused as something powerful ravaged her body, drained all her energy and made her body soft like jelly.

‘I want to melt in his embrace!’ She screamed inside her heart.

All her cowardice and meekness were abandoned. Ignoring how others would see her from now on, she used what strength she had left and ran into his embrace. A warm and secure sensation filled her instantly. This was the safe harbor that Lin Xiang missed the entire time!

“I’m really sorry. I was too much in a rush to buy anything.” Chen Xiaobei said softly as he stroked Lin Xiang silky hair.

“It’s fine. You’re the best gift ever!” Lin Xiang lifted up her head, and everyone could see genuine sweetness brimming from her soulful eyes. The crowd was bewildered.

“Oh my god! Who is that guy? He just made Lady Lin fall in love with him instantly!”

“Actually, I heard that Lady Lin has a boyfriend. That could be him!”

“That brat is so damn lucky. I can’t believe he managed to capture Lady Lin’s heart – he might make a fortune from it as well!”

“Isn’t that right? This is ten thousand times better than winning a jackpot. I’m so jealous of him right now!”

Everyone watched as Chen Xiaobei left with his arms around Lin Xiang’s waist, Lin Nan in tow. The big screen turned black after they left, and soon Bai Zhunyu’s cellphone rang. It was Yap Tianlin.

“Idiot! You just ruined
