Chapter 1526: My Intuition Is Very Accurate

"My father's estate isn't much; this cruise ship is probably the most valuable thing, and this shipping route is extremely lucrative. He simply wants to replace me, that's all."

"Then do you not have any sense of precaution?" Chen Yu asked. "Although I am not familiar with him, I can tell from his eyes that he harbors terrifying desires."

"He is my younger brother. After my father died, the two of us relied on each other to survive. Why would I guard against him?" Zhou Ran shook her head and said, "Besides, I can tell what he wants to do just by looking into his eyes. To me, he poses no danger."

"You really shouldn't think that way. Your sixth sense is very strong; your Mental Power should be your forte." Chen Yu smiled slightly. "But he is your family, and because of that, you might not have any guard against him."

"But your brother—I can tell from his eyes that he doesn't hide his ambition at all. Therefore, I think he is an extremely dangerous person."

"Dangerous to what extent?" Zhou Ran was a bit bewildered, then she smiled. "It's fine, I know his situation, and I can manage him."

"I hope so." Chen Yu raised his wine glass and said, "Thank you for the wine. If you need anything, you can contact me."

Chen Yu set down a business card. He thought for a moment, then took out an Amulet. "Keep this on you. If you throw it out at a critical moment, I will come."

"Thank you." Zhou Ran took the Amulet from his hand and looked it over, turning it back and forth. "Is this a method used by you Dharma Cultivators?"

"Yes, it's called a Spirit Talisman," Chen Yu said. "It activates instantly and can erupt with powerful force. It can save your life at a critical moment."

Zhou Ran nodded, carefully put away the Spirit Talisman in her hand, and then pondered for a moment before saying, "I want to ask you a question."

"You want to ask if the threshold for Dharma Cultivators is very high? Do you want to practice Dharma?" Chen Yu guessed her thoughts.

"Yes, do you Dharma Cultivators have to look at aptitude? If so, how is my aptitude? Is it... possible for me to enter the Cultivation World and become someone like you?" Zhou Ran asked.

"Your Spirit is on the lower-middle side." Chen Yu shook his head. "It's not that you can't practice, but starting now is too late. So, even if you work hard, it might be difficult to make any progress. You should just focus on running your shipping route; it's already much better than that of an ordinary person."

"Is that so? As expected, there's no way to practice." Zhou Ran felt a little disappointed, but then she smiled and said, "It's okay, I was just asking. If I can't practice, then so be it; I won't force it."

"You have a very good personality." Chen Yu smiled slightly. "If it were some other people, upon meeting a Dharma Cultivator who could change their fate, they would definitely pester them to death."

"I am not that kind of person." Zhou Ran smiled slightly. "In this world, there are many things that are not meant for you, so you shouldn't force them. A melon twisted off the vine is not sweet. Since you said so, then my aptitude must really be lacking."

"Your aptitude is passable, but..." Chen Yu paused here and said, "The Cultivation World has the laws of the Cultivation World, and these laws are extremely dark."

"The law of the jungle?" Zhou Ran asked these four words.

"Yes, the law of the jungle," Chen Yu said. "Although it is the same as the real world where the strong survive, the laws of this world are not constrained by any legal system."

"Once you fall into it, there is no way to get out. And how many Dharma Cultivators are actually just cannon fodder in this world?" Chen Yu said leisurely. "Those who are lucky are always the minority. So, do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand. Not everyone can adapt to that world. You are doing this to protect me, right?" Zhou Ran nodded.

"Yes, that is exactly what I mean." Chen Yu smiled. "Alright, since that's the case, I won't force it."

"Your father's vendetta... has it been avenged?" Chen Yu hesitated for a moment before asking this question.

"It hasn't. The other party is very powerful, at least to us ordinary people, they are very strong." Zhou Ran shook her head slightly. "They didn't wipe us out completely; for me and the Zhou Mansion, that was already showing mercy. So, revenge... is quite distant for me."

Chen Yu nodded: "Do you want to take revenge?"

"I do, but I also don't want to break the peaceful life I have now. Besides, my father was also at fault in that matter." Zhou Ran sighed and said, "Let it be."

"You really are a unique person. I thought you were going to beg me to take revenge for you." Chen Yu smiled; he had become interested in Zhou Ran.

"I wouldn't dare to harbor such extravagant hopes. Human favors are the hardest things to repay in this world, and the two of us are just passing acquaintances, so I haven't even entertained that thought." Zhou Ran smiled.

"Very good. You are a person who is easily satisfied, unlike those who are insatiable." Chen Yu nodded in approval. "Since that's the case, I will give you a promise: if there is ever something you cannot resolve, you can contact me, and I will resolve it for you."

"Also, this shipping route of yours is indeed not safe. Many things are beyond what you can imagine. So after docking, you should have some Arrays added to the ship for protection. That way, at a critical moment, the lives of everyone on the ship can be saved."

"Thank you." Zhou Ran hadn't expected to gain such a harvest from this trip. She knew what kind of existence a Dharma Cultivator was; Chen Yu's promise could truly be said to be worth more than ten thousand gold.

"You're welcome. A person like you is worth me helping out." Chen Yu smiled slightly.

Just at this moment, the music started. Originally, this bar was a quiet bar with soothing music playing inside, suitable for having a drink and discussing matters.

But at a certain time in the evening, the music here would start up. Countless men and women walked to the stage, and the atmosphere group instantly brought the mood here up, making it incredibly lively for a moment.

"I thought this place would be very quiet." Chen Yu gave a wry smile.

"People's emotions all need to be released." Zhou Ran smiled slightly. "People who can come on this shipping route all want to relax, so creating a proper atmosphere allows everyone's emotions to be released."

"You really have a head for business." Chen Yu nodded. Zhou Ran was truly an extraordinary girl.

"If you find it noisy, go to the first floor. There is a card room there; it's not bad to go there and play a few rounds." Zhou Ran said.

"Alright, I'll go over there myself. You go ahead and get busy." Chen Yu nodded, turned his head, and walked out.
