~8 min read 1,469 words

Suddenly, his shoulder felt heavy as someone placed a hand on it from behind, and at the same time, Chen Yu's voice came: "Had enough fun?"

"How is it possible that you can still stand? This is impossible!" Zhang Hai was shocked.

"I knew there was something wrong with the tea the moment I arrived," Chen Yu laughed.

"You didn't drink it?" Zhang Hai was furious.

"I did, but these drugs are useless on me. When it comes to playing with drugs, I am your ancestor." Chen Yu sneered. He suddenly slapped Zhang Hai across the face. *Pa! * Zhang Hai slammed headfirst into the ground, twitching on the floor, unable to get up for a long time.

Chen Yu walked over to Yan Roujin, took out a small bottle, and placed it under her nose. A burst of refreshing fragrance entered her nostrils, and upon smelling it, Yan Roujin immediately regained her freedom.

She stood up and stared coldly at Zhang Hai: "Zhang Hai, I've never liked you since we were children. As expected, you are an ungrateful thing."

"Heh, Yan Roujin, consider yourself lucky today," Zhang Hai said through gritted teeth. "But unless you kill me, I will haunt you forever and never let this go."

Chen Yu glanced at him, his hand moving as he prepared to act.

But Yan Roujin was faster than him. She stood straight, threw out a side kick, and *pa! *—the shoe on her foot struck Zhang Hai.

With a *thud*, Zhang Hai was kicked several meters away. He knelt on the ground, clutching his head and writhing in pain.

"Nice," Chen Yu gave a thumbs up. Although Yan Roujin was not a Martial Artist, she was an expert in free combat; dealing with a Zhang Hai was truly nothing for her.

"Zhang Hai, from now on, our relationship is severed. Leave the company tomorrow. If you dare to offend me again, I will kill you," Yan Roujin said coldly.

"Heh, if you don't kill me... you will definitely regret it." Zhang Hai struggled to climb up, his gaze venomous. "And you, Chen Yu, I will definitely kill you too."

"I don't like the feeling of being threatened." Chen Yu frowned, intending to cripple Zhang Hai.

"Chen Yu... for the sake of the meager bond I have with him, let him go this once. If he falls into your hands next time, I absolutely won't stop you. After all, he is half a son to my parents," Yan Roujin said, holding Chen Yu's hand, her expression somewhat sorrowful.

She had no other family left. Although Zhang Hai was a jerk, he was someone she had lived with since she was a child.

"Alright," Chen Yu nodded. "I'll let him go this once."

"You can go now, Zhang Hai, I..." Just as Yan Roujin said this, Chen Yu suddenly stepped forward, fiercely tackling Yan Roujin to the ground and pinning her beneath him.

Yan Roujin was stunned. What was Chen Yu trying to do? She was somewhat surprised, but deep down, she felt a little joy... She didn't know why, but she was looking forward to Chen Yu's next move.

But soon she felt something was wrong, because Chen Yu was pressing her tightly beneath him, shielding her from head to toe.

Almost at the same time, the lights in the room went out. Zhang Hai let out a muffled groan, and with several *pu-pu-pu* sounds, several blood mists exploded from his body as countless tiny steel balls shattered the floor-to-ceiling windows and attacked.

Zhang Hai's eyes were wide open, and he collapsed to the ground, unwilling to accept his fate.

Three figures appeared in the courtyard. From the aura they emitted, Chen Yu instantly recognized them as the three people who wanted to buy his Spirit Stone.

All three were experts. Their figures flashed, suddenly scattering, and their eerie forms vanished into the darkness.

Chen Yu pressed Yan Roujin down beneath him and whispered: "They are experts, don't move."

Yan Roujin nodded. She pressed tightly against Chen Yu, her chest rising and falling slightly, her body feeling restless.

Chen Yu already realized that the three had entered the house, but the opponent's movement techniques were eerie and swift, and there was a Martial True Realm expert among them, so he had to be careful.

He slowly stood up, pulled Yan Roujin up, and crouched halfway on the ground, making a gesture for her to be silent.

Yan Roujin also lowered her body and nodded at Chen Yu.

"Heh, friend, you'd better stop hiding and come out." A cold laugh came from the darkness. It was Wu Fa's voice: "If you had been sensible and sold it earlier, it wouldn't have come to this."

Chen Yu straightened up and was about to speak when suddenly a burst of Dark Energy struck from the darkness. He frowned and countered with a punch.

*Peng... * Accompanied by a muffled groan, the opponent was struck by Chen Yu's punch. Chen Yu did not hold back; one punch smashed down and directly ruptured the opponent's internal organs.

"Lao Er!" Wu Fa roared angrily. "Kill him..."

*Xiu-xiu*, countless tiny steel balls attacked from the darkness again. Chen Yu turned around, scooped up Yan Roujin, and quickly rolled behind a sofa to the side.

The tiny steel balls made a bursting sound. Suddenly, Yan Roujin in his arms let out a muffled groan; she had clearly been hit by a steel ball.

Chen Yu was furious. He grabbed with his right hand, and the Li Chen on his arm suddenly lit up. Grasping Li Chen, he swung it forward. With a *weng* sound, Sword Qi surged, and with one sweep, an enemy's throat was slit.

In the darkness, another fierce gust of wind flashed by. Wu Fa had made his move. As a Martial True Realm expert, his strength was extraordinary, and with his two brothers dead and injured, he attacked out of hatred, swearing to kill Chen Yu with one punch.

Chen Yu thrust his sword forward. *Pu... * Li Chen pierced through Wu Fa's chest without any resistance. Chen Yu stepped forward, exerted force with his right hand, and with a *ding*, Wu Fa was pinned to the wall.

Feeling for the switch on the wall, the lights in the room turned on one by one. Chen Yu held the hilt of Li Chen in one hand, staring coldly at Wu Fa.

This grandson was the very guy who wanted to buy his Spirit Stone. Chen Yu had instinctively felt that this guy was unusual and had tried his best to avoid conflict with him, but he hadn't expected that the other party would still come knocking.

"Who are you?" Chen Yu stared coldly at Wu Fa.

"Heh, I misjudged you. I didn't expect you to actually be a Martial True Realm expert," Wu Fa said, blood bubbling from his mouth. "You killed me; my master will definitely avenge me."

"And who is your master?" Chen Yu asked coldly.

"My master is Ling Kong. Ten years ago, he was already a Martial Ancestor Realm expert. He has been cultivating diligently, hoping to break through his limits one day, reach the Primordial Qi Realm, and become a Dharma Cultivator. Kid, you cannot control the Spirit Stone; your end will be miserable."

"Today you killed me, my master will definitely come to avenge me. When that time comes, he will kill you and kill everyone around you." Wu Fa had blood bubbling from his mouth, his expression ferocious.

Chen Yu was furious. He pulled out Li Chen, then waved his right hand, and a flash of red light streaked by.

Wu Fa's body stiffened. A trace of blood slowly overflowed from his throat. He knelt on the ground and died.

"Are you okay?" Chen Yu hurriedly went to check on Yan Roujin, only to see her shoulder had been hit by several steel balls, with blood seeping out.

"I'm fine," Yan Roujin smiled weakly, but her vision went black, and she began to collapse to the ground.

"Stubborn." Chen Yu helped her sit down, then tore open her clothes, only to see her shoulder was a bloody mess.

These steel balls were coated with poison. These people used True Qi to propel them, and the overwhelming barrage of steel balls was impossible to guard against—it was extremely vicious.

Chen Yu placed his right hand on her shoulder and channeled his True Qi. With several *pu-pu-pu* sounds, the steel balls embedded in her shoulder were forced out. Chen Yu stopped the bleeding for her, applied medicine, and bandaged the wound.

It was just that Yan Roujin's bare shoulder was truly alluring, and Chen Yu couldn't help but keep glancing at her.

"If you want to look, then look openly," Yan Roujin smiled slightly.
