Chapter 20

Then Li Changkong asked indirectly if he had obtained more than one formula.

Chen Ang just brushed it off with a laugh.

In short, Chen Ang was very satisfied with the lunch.

After eating his fill, he got up and left immediately, without the slightest hesitation.

After Chen Ang left, Li Changkong couldn't help but sigh. "Tsk tsk, Leyao, this classmate of yours is not simple; he's clearly about the same age as you, yet he's like an old fox."

"This just shows that Chen Ang is very capable." Li Leyao replied with a giggle.

Hearing this, Li Changkong shook his head helplessly.

This wasn't just a matter of being capable.

Capability comes in many forms.

Some are capable because of powerful strength.

As for Chen Ang, setting his strength aside for now.

At the very least, his temperament is unusual.

"My problem with evolutionary materials is solved; next, I just need to wait."

Walking out of the restaurant, Chen Ang took a deep breath.

Once the materials are settled and I get the heavenly treasures, my second characteristic will definitely be activated.

Even the proficiency level of the Ripping Claw can be increased again.

By then, with the heavenly treasures, I might even be able to evolve directly to Tier 2.

In that case, I can easily explore the ruins in the Secret Realm.

Shaking his head, Chen Ang didn't think any further and prepared to leave.

At this moment, a voice sounded from the right.

"Chen Ang? Why are you here?"

Looking toward the sound, it was Xie Kangning.

Wearing a black suit, he was somewhat handsome, but the sense of superiority radiating from his whole body made Chen Ang frown slightly.

Suppressing this feeling, Chen Ang said flatly, "Having lunch with Li Leyao, is there something wrong?"

"Having lunch with Li Leyao?"

Xie Kangning was stunned for a moment, then laughed disdainfully. "Don't joke, in a place like this, a meal costs tens of thousands; it's not that I look down on you, but how could you possibly afford to eat here?"

"So what?"

"Does it have anything to do with you?"

Chen Ang's gaze was calm; he didn't want to argue with a clown.

This gaze instantly made Xie Kangning, who had lived in luxury and been pampered since childhood, feel uncomfortable.

But the next moment, as if he had thought of something, he mocked, "I get it, you came here to have lunch with Li Leyao, could it be that you ended up making Li Leyao pay the bill?"

He seemed to think that was exactly it.

Xie Kangning laughed even louder. "Hahahaha, Chen Ang, you really are something; as a grown man, you actually have such a thick skin."

"However, I suggest you stop pestering Li Leyao in the future."

His gaze carried coldness as he warned, "A toad cannot match a swan."

17: Xie Family's Purpose, Activating the Second Characteristic.

Hearing Xie Kangning's words, Chen Ang couldn't help but sneer. "Are you talking about yourself?"

Saying this, Chen Ang carefully sized up Xie Kangning.

Then he sneered. "I actually think you look quite like a toad."

"Don't be ungrateful, Chen Ang."

Xie Kangning's expression turned gloomy, and he snorted coldly. "Even if you awakened a powerful Dragon Claw talent, do you think you can evolve it? If you can't evolve, even if you are a Gifted, you are just a piece of trash."

"And Li Leyao is not someone you can fantasize about."

"Take my advice, stay away from Li Leyao in the future, otherwise, who knows, you might lose your life on the way home one day."

Hearing this.

Chen Ang's eyes instantly turned cold. "Are you threatening me?"

"And what if I am threatening you?"

Xie Kangning's expression was disdainful.

He knew Chen Ang's identity very well.

Just an orphan.

Even if he had now become a Gifted.

But he didn't think Chen Ang could evolve.

"You need to know that a Gifted who cannot evolve is just a piece of trash. I'm threatening a piece of trash, you should feel hono..."

Before he could finish speaking.

Chen Ang struck abruptly.

That terrifying speed made Xie Kangning's pupils shrink, and before he could even react, he was grabbed by the throat by Chen Ang.

The immense strength allowed Chen Ang to easily lift Xie Kangning into mid-air; for a moment, Xie Kangning found it difficult to breathe, his face flushed red, and he struggled frantically.

But Chen Ang's arm remained motionless.

"You?"

Chen Ang sneered, his cold gaze staring straight at Xie Kangning. "Who gave you the confidence?"

"I don't want to argue with a clown, I don't like hearing a dog barking in my ear, and I don't like there being a next time."

"Get lost."

After saying this, Chen Ang waved his hand abruptly.

Xie Kangning was thrown flying directly.

If it weren't for the fact that this was in the city and there were quite a few people looking this way.

Chen Ang wouldn't have minded twisting this guy's head off.

Being all alone, Xie Kangning alone didn't have the qualifications to threaten him.

Snorting coldly, Chen Ang turned and left; the good mood he had when leaving the restaurant was wiped away.

"Cough, cough, cough."

As Chen Ang left, Xie Kangning crawled up from the ground, looking in the direction Chen Ang had left, his expression extremely gloomy, filled with piercing killing intent.

"Damn it, damn it!!"

"A lowly person, a damn orphan, how dare he? How dare he treat me like this?"

"Chen Ang, you are courting death!!"

He roared in his heart.

The pairs of eyes looking over from around him made him feel that he had lost all his dignity, and his anger grew even more.

After a while, he also turned and left.

He had originally planned to invite Li Leyao to watch a movie in the afternoon.

But now he just wanted to find a place to vent the anger in his heart.

It was just that when Xie Kangning left the restaurant entrance and reached a corner, he stepped into a car and didn't hesitate to take out his phone and dial.

Soon, the call went through.

Xie Kangning's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth and ordered, "Knife, keep a close eye on that guy, understand? From now on, as long as he leaves, notify me immediately."

"I want him dead!!"

His words were filled with resentment.

"If you don't keep a close eye on him, I'm telling you, I will personally cripple you!"

"Yes, yes, yes, Young Master Xie, don't worry, I will definitely keep a close eye on him, don't worry."

A fearful voice sounded from the phone, hurriedly giving assurances.

Hearing this, Xie Kangning snorted coldly and hung up the phone.

After doing all this, Xie Kangning felt that the anger in his heart had dissipated slightly.

But he didn't stop; instead, he found another phone number and dialed it. ===== CHAPTER 21 =====
