Chapter 667: Ending Here

He lay prone on the ground, spitting out blood mouthful by mouthful.

"You aren't convinced?" Chen Yu flashed forward again, staring at Xu Baoshan.

"I didn't expect you to be such an expert; I admit defeat today," Xu Baoshan said through gritted teeth.

"A simple 'I admit defeat' and everything is fine today?" Chen Yu said coldly. "If you pay fifty million, wouldn't it be better to settle this matter? Must I beat your mouth to a pulp?"

"Chen Yu, I admit defeat regarding today's events; let this matter end here," Xu Baoshan said, straightening his body.

Chen Yu suddenly kicked out, sending Xu Baoshan flying directly. Xu Baoshan fell to the ground with a thud, his body arching like a shrimp as he twisted in pain on the floor.

"Since you admit defeat, why not lower your attitude?" Chen Yu sneered. "Used to being a boss, you don't know how to bow your head anymore?"

"Chen Yu, don't be too arrogant. Do you really think I only have Zhang Zhengwen standing behind me?" Xu Baoshan struggled to crawl up; even though many of his bones were broken, his aura as a big boss could not be lost.

Responding to him was a ruthless punch from Chen Yu. Xu Baoshan collapsed to the ground, feeling as if his spirit were about to sublimate; he lay on the ground for a long time without getting up.

Chen Yu stepped forward, grabbed him, tapped several points on his body, and then inserted a few needles. A moment later, the injuries on Xu Baoshan's body miraculously healed.

Xu Baoshan looked at Chen Yu in surprise, not yet knowing what he was about to do, when suddenly his back felt cold; it was Chen Yu pointing a finger at him.

After Chen Yu's finger struck, Xu Baoshan suddenly felt the blood throughout his body freeze in that instant. His hands trembled violently, his eyes became bloodshot, and his head swelled as if all the blood were surging toward his brain.

Xu Baoshan shrieked and collapsed to the ground. He trembled uncontrollably, feeling as if all his blood were rushing to his head in that moment, as if it were about to burst out from his skull.

"Do you believe it?" Chen Yu grinned. "I have a thousand ways to make you die inexplicably, die without a single flaw. Even the best forensic doctor in the world wouldn't be able to determine your cause of death; they would most likely conclude you died of cerebrovascular disease."

"You, you..." Xu Baoshan trembled violently, unable to even speak. Finally, he mustered his last bit of strength and shrieked, "Chen Yu, I surrender..."

"If you had done this earlier, wouldn't you have avoided this physical suffering?" Chen Yu smiled. He tapped with his right hand, and Xu Baoshan's body relaxed; the bloodshot look in his eyes and the flush on his face gradually faded.

He lay on the ground, gasping for air. The scene just now had nearly cost him his life, and he finally realized that he and Chen Yu were not even on the same level as opponents.

"Tell me, who is the boss behind the scenes?" Chen Yu asked.

"Liu, Liu Jingye," Xu Baoshan said tremblingly.

"Him again?" Chen Yu sneered. "Do you believe that if I killed you, Liu Jingye wouldn't dare to let out a single fart?"

Xu Baoshan dared not answer; his expression clearly showed he did not believe Chen Yu.

"The Liu Family has good relations with some masters in the Esoteric Sect, and his younger sister, Liu Lianxin, was born with the Green Lotus Jade Bone and possesses immense strength." Chen Yu smiled. "But I might as well tell you another identity of mine: I am actually a 'Dharma Cultivator'."

"You are a Dharma Cultivator?" Xu Baoshan raised his head abruptly, looking at Chen Yu in disbelief; by his appearance, he had heard of Dharma Cultivators.

"Mr. Chen speaks the truth; he is indeed a Dharma Cultivator," Zhang Zhengwen, standing to the side, confirmed Chen Yu's statement.

Although Zhang Zhengwen had long guessed Chen Yu's identity, hearing it from Chen Yu's own mouth still left Zhang Zhengwen somewhat shocked, and subsequently, somewhat excited.

"Dharma Cultivator..." Xu Baoshan's expression was complex. "You are so young, yet you are a Dharma Cultivator."

"Dharma Cultivators have nothing to do with age. Do you think the Liu Clan would fall out with me over a mere you? The Liu Clan possesses the gifted Liu Lianxin, but weigh your own status—is it worth her making a move?" Chen Yu sneered.

Xu Baoshan dared not speak. If Chen Yu were a Dharma Cultivator, even if Chen Yu killed him, the Liu Clan would definitely not fall out with Chen Yu over him. To put it bluntly, he was nothing more than a dog for the Liu Clan.

"Mr. Chen, this matter was my fault; I apologize to you," Xu Baoshan finally lowered his head.

"Hmm, the attitude is sincere enough, so I will spare your life today," Chen Yu nodded. "However, you won't live for much longer. Prepare yourself; it won't exceed three years."

"Why?" Xu Baoshan raised his head abruptly.

"Are you unaware of your own family's hereditary disease?" Chen Yu said indifferently. "Your grandfather died because of this illness; your father likely escaped one calamity, but the next one to inherit the family disease is you. You are forty years old this year; I'm afraid you won't survive the calamity at forty-three."

Xu Baoshan's face changed wildly. He indeed had a hereditary heart disease; his grandfather had passed away at the age of forty-three, and his great-grandfather—his grandfather's father—had also died when his condition flared up at forty-three.

"How did you know?" Xu Baoshan's face looked terrible.

"My specialty is actually Medicine," Chen Yu smiled. "If you don't want to die, you can come find me. I naturally have ways to keep you alive, and I can even change the defects in your children and grandchildren's bodies, so your descendants will no longer be troubled by this disease. However..."

"What are your conditions?" Xu Baoshan's breathing became rapid. He believed that with Chen Yu's strength, he could absolutely achieve this, but he also knew there was no such thing as a free lunch; Chen Yu must have conditions for saying this.

"In Shengjing, I need a dog that listens," Chen Yu said indifferently.

Xu Baoshan's face changed wildly. He blurted out, "I am currently the Liu Clan's dog; if I follow you, they won't let me go."

"Since I am taking you as my dog, I will certainly guarantee your safety. Think about it." Chen Yu smiled and turned around. "Cousin, let's go."

Zhang Hu nodded. He glanced at Xu Baoshan and then left the place with Chen Yu.

After Chen Yu left, Xu Baoshan slumped onto the sofa, his hands trembling slightly; he did not know what to do.

"Boss Xu, you saw Mr. Chen's strength; he is not someone an ordinary person can compare to," Zhang Zhengwen, standing to the side, sighed slightly; he had been injured by Chen Yu earlier, and his steps were somewhat unsteady.

Zhang Zhengwen lamented, "Previously, I suffered from Qi deviation, but fortunately Mr. Chen saved me and even intended to guide me to break through to Martial Ancestor. But at the time, I was too suspicious, which led to missing that opportunity. Now that he is willing to offer you an olive branch, this is a great opportunity."
