Volume 4: Hidden Struggles, Chapter 128: The Tiger’s Bottom

Chu Tianyu, the third son of the Chu family and someone who was constantly under attention, had a carefree time these days. After a successful collaboration with Qin Nianran, Chu Tianyu casually gave her some guidance on her cultivation skills. Without needing any martial arts manuals, he recited a few passages for her to practice first, saying that once she reached a certain level, she could move on to the next stage.

Thanks to Chu Tianyu’s casual guidance, Qin Nianran was surprised to discover that these were exactly the key points she had been struggling with for so long. Even her great-aunt hadn’t been able to solve these issues, yet Chu Tianyu explained them so effortlessly!

Especially the mantras he recited—given Qin Nianran’s intelligence, she understood their intricacies right away. She realized they were tailored to her strengths, not just random words. She immediately tried channeling her vital energy along the meridians he suggested, and indeed, she felt an unprecedented sense of smoothness and power…

Delighted, Qin Nianran ignored Chu Tianyu’s apparent ulterior motives, such as claiming to give further guidance only after she reached a certain level.

…

But now, Chu Tianyu somewhat understood the experience his third master, the radical scholar, had when guiding him through his adventures—doing whatever he wanted, living a leisurely life. His constant mantra was, “A good ruler is also a leisurely person!” He often advised Chu Tianyu never to treat himself as a god or others as insects. Instead, one should maximize others’ strengths and create an ideal environment for their development, so that the benefits could be reaped by oneself.

So after delegating business matters to Qin Nianran, Chu Tianyu really had nothing much to do. There were people from Tianxing Group monitoring things, so he couldn’t take any action yet. His elder brother was discussing matters with his grandfather, so he wasn’t involved either. And since “that incident,” Ouyang Ziyi refused to return to the villa, claiming she wanted to focus on cultivation and seclusion, which left Chu Tianyu extremely frustrated!

Life seemed to return to when he first entered university—participating in club activities with Bai Lei, playing sports, reading books, and exchanging ideas with his confidant Li Rou to deepen their bond. Although Chu Tianyu never wanted to admit it, he unknowingly followed Ouyang Ziyi’s advice…

To be honest, Chu Tianyu now feels somewhat guilty toward Li Rou. At the same time, he thinks of a problem: when you keep a low profile and others don’t know your abilities, your burdens are indeed limited, allowing you to spare time for things you want to do, like helping that pancake vendor. Though it was a small act, it brought him a sense of joy—a simple yet fulfilling happiness.

Since his experience with the Black Dragon, he had left that matter to Ouyang Ziyi. Although he believed she would handle it perfectly, for Chu Tianyu himself, the successive “major issues” he faced lately had made him too preoccupied to think about such “minor matters.” The same was true for Li Rou. Unlike Qin Nianran and Ouyang Ziyi—whose abilities and backgrounds enabled them to support Chu Tianyu in various endeavors—Li Rou was just an extremely ordinary girl. How could she possibly participate in these business strategies and martial battles?

Thus, for Chu Tianyu, the current situation and choices were nothing short of a life of helplessness and the impossibility of having it all…

Chu Tianyu was well aware of this, so inwardly he always avoided Ouyang Ziyi’s suggestions regarding Li Rou. However, his interactions with Li Rou over the past couple of days gave him a different perspective.

In short, it could be described in two words: ease!

Li Rou seemed to understand Chu Tianyu as well. With her gentle affection and expressive manner, she allowed him to experience a different kind of tender warmth.

In the early morning, Li Rou, holding a paintbrush, focused on depicting Chu Tianyu dancing with a sword while wiping his sweat with a handkerchief—a scene that itself became a beautiful painting. It must have made many people exercising on the playground feel envious and tearful, thinking, “Why is there such a big gap between people? Why, even when exercising in the morning, don’t they have beauties or talented women to paint for them, wipe their sweat, or kiss them…”

In the evening, Chu Tianyu and Li Rou walked hand in hand out of the library, whispering to each other about the wonderful ideas in the books or smiling at one another, savoring their insights…

This almost divine life made Chu Tianyu forget all his worries, allowing him to indulge fully in it. But while he could forget his troubles, his troubles did not forget him!

One day, as Chu Tianyu and Li Rou were leaving the library, discussing which cafeteria to eat at that night, several rowdy young men blocked their path. They clearly had aggressive intentions and were not trustworthy people.

Li Rou instinctively tensed up, but then remembered the time Chu Tianyu had treated her to a meal, so she relaxed again. However, she kept her grip on Chu Tianyu’s hand tightly.
In fact, Chu Tianyu had already noticed their presence. Strangely enough, these guys were just ordinary hooligans. Though they were just hooligans, it was obvious they must have been sent by Tianxing Group.
At first, Chu Tianyu was puzzled by this, but after thinking it over, he understood—it was definitely Zhou Tianxing who really saw him as an “idiot.” Calling him an idiot was sarcasm out of anger, but it was clear their perception of Chu Tianyu remained that of a mediocre person who could only get into a second-rate college thanks to his family’s influence. They thought his intervention that night was a clever arrangement by his elder brother Chu Tiancheng, aimed at humiliating him even more.
So, sending just a few hooligans this time was enough—whether to beat up this idiot or do something worse. As for why they chose him instead of going straight for his elder brother, it was simply to intimidate them. It didn’t matter if they bullied an idiot from the Chu family; if they provoked Chu Tiancheng and forced the Chu family to fight back to the death, it would be counterproductive!
“Heard you’ve been acting really arrogant lately, huh? Do you know you’ve offended someone? Someone wants you to come with us!” one of the long-haired guys said.
“And who the hell are you guys’ lackeys?” Chu Tianyu retorted rudely.
“Damn, you’re bold, kid! I’ll knock you out right here…” a guy with a short haircut immediately raised his fist to strike.
The long-haired guy waved his hand to stop him and said, “You’re really arrogant. Aren’t you afraid of death? Aren’t you worried about dragging that delicate girl beside you into trouble?”
“Brother, stop talking to him. Rich brats like him are ignorant fools who only know how to date pretty girls. They’re good for nothing else. Let’s teach him a lesson first before discussing anything else…” another hooligan hurriedly said.
“Bro, did you hear that? If you don’t want to suffer, come with us obediently. You’re too precious to risk your life like us, living on the edge of danger every day…” the long-haired guy continued to threaten.

Chu Tianyu was amused as soon as he heard this. Their back-and-forth banter, with the red-faced and white-faced roles, clearly showed they were still the new generation of intelligent hooligans. Obviously, in such a public place on campus, with students coming and going, they still had some reservations. Moreover, from their position, they not only blocked his and Li Rou’s path but also, from the outside, it seemed like they were chatting with old friends.

“Okay, there’s no problem going back with you guys. But I need to ask if my bodyguards are willing. Although they don’t engage in direct violence, their ‘knives’ often end up in others’ hearts by accident. Hehe, you guys can use this as a chance to exchange skills!” As Chu Tianyu spoke, several burly men appeared beside them, all looking fierce and clearly not easy to provoke.

“You’re really arrogant, huh? Damn, you even carry bodyguards around at all times…” the long-haired man said angrily.

“You’ve been calling me arrogant from the start, so of course I’ll show you just how arrogant I am! Guys, beat him up so badly that even his mom won’t recognize him! Damn it!” Chu Tianyu deliberately acted like a spoiled rich kid, shouting arrogantly.

With that, he ignored the “troubles” here and pulled Li Rou away, so she wouldn’t have to watch it.

Chu Tianyu wanted to explain a few things to Li Rou, but to his surprise, she was understanding and magnanimous. “You don’t need to explain anything to me. Whatever you do, there’s a reason behind it. Zi Yi has told me a lot about you. For things I can’t understand, it’s better to just forget them. Asking too much and overthinking only causes unnecessary trouble for oneself and others! Hehe, I guess you’ll be busy soon. I won’t hold you back, right?”

……

Li Rou’s understanding touched Chu Tianyu deeply. Indeed, he would really be busy soon! Actually, ever since those hooligans received their orders, Chu Tianyu had already gotten the news. To avoid revealing his strength, he temporarily brought along a few martial arts disciples.

Regarding those hooligans, Chu Tianyu deliberately acted like a spoiled rich kid who knew nothing, while secretly telling those martial arts disciples to be gentle—just give them a scare and then let them go. He was waiting for them to report back!

Given Zhou Tianxing’s personality, he definitely wouldn’t give up easily. And knowing Chu Tianyu’s behavior matched his requirements, he was sure Zhou Tianxing would send someone again. Next time, they might bring more serious forces. By then, Chu Tianyu could start implementing his plans, ensuring that most of Zhou Tianxing’s attention would be occupied, thus creating more space and convenience for Qin Nianran.

And he also had to create a sense of surprise, so that Zhou Tianxing would be left helpless and unable to complain! Of course, to create such a sense of surprise, one first needs to give others some opportunity and motivation to act. Over the next two days, Chu Tianyu gave up his leisurely campus life and had several luxury cars sent from the Chu family, spending his days at high-end clubs and bars. Think about it—who would have paid attention to his movements before? But now it’s different. Since that last banquet, everyone knows about him, the third young master of the Chu family. Although most still think he’s there under the deliberate arrangement of his elder brother Chu Tiancheng, it’s possible that some others have different opinions and are keeping an eye on him. Especially Zhou Tianxing, who has his eye on him, would surely be watching closely. So these two days, Chu Tianyu really enjoyed being a young master—luxury cars, strong bodyguards, expensive clothes; it was almost as if he wasn’t even missing a few big wolf dogs! He spent money recklessly and loved to stir up trouble. With his bodyguards by his side, Chu Tianyu acted arrogantly, getting into fights and loudly claiming that his bodyguards were experts from certain sects or secret organizations, telling those weaker people to leave his sisters alone or face punishment! When those stubborn people were finally beaten up and driven away, Chu Tianyu could only apologize in his heart. As for the sisters he forced to stay, he would usually start “teasing” them! It was real teasing! Every time he would say, “Don’t stay up too late; go home early!” Then he’d do nothing and just walk away! This left those sisters who hoped for something special or a heroic rescue deeply disappointed. Only after Chu Tianyu left would they dare to shout, “Psychopath!” After “teasing” the sisters, he would go out for a stroll, not even using a car. He’d walk wherever he wanted, with his bodyguards following within fifteen meters behind… Just then, Chu Tianyu arrived at an unassuming courtyard with no one guarding it. Seeing a faded sign at the entrance that read something about a geological exploration bureau, he suddenly felt annoyed, as if something was off, and insisted on leaving some liquid from his body as a “memory” under that sign! At that moment, a cold voice rang out: “What a wastrel! People like you, scum from wealthy families, would even dirty my hands if I killed you. Since you insist on using that thing to pee, then I’ll reluctantly clean it up for you!”

“Who is that? So bold. Daring to touch our young master in front of the Four Heroes of Longxi? Damn it, show yourself if you’ve got the guts!” The disciples of Wutang also shouted fiercely.
“Hmph, a worthless clown! Not worth mentioning!” With a scornful remark, a tall, thin figure dressed in training clothes slowly emerged from around the street corner…
Upon seeing him, Chu Tianyu realized it was indeed the person he had seen on the screen. But that person still acted arrogantly, shaking his head and speaking in a domineering tone, “Damn it. Who the hell are you? That wimp dares to meddle in our Chu young master’s affairs. Ah Da, go and take him down! Remember, I only want his little penis!”
“Yes, young master!” Just as Ah Da was about to charge forward, two more dark figures suddenly appeared from the shadows on either side and attacked him from above. Ah Da was quick-witted. He changed his stance, forming a defensive posture with his palms, and blocked their attacks while retreating. Although it seemed the two attackers weren’t using their full strength, Ah Da still struggled greatly, backing away continuously before finally sitting down on the ground, breathing heavily.
Mr. Qi shook his head. What a mess—having to use all three of them just for such a good-for-nothing. But then again, his bodyguards were quite capable; with just a casual move from his two disciples, those guys were already knocked to the ground. They were nothing but third-rate scoundrels!
At that moment, the good-for-nothing boy across from them started screaming hysterically as if his tail had been stepped on, “Great! Such despicable tactics—ambushing us! How shameless! Ah Er, blow the whistle to call our brothers!”
Hearing this, Mr. Qi felt disgusted. Dealing with such a guy was the greatest humiliation of his life. He secretly shed tears, regretting, “Master, father, mother… I’ve brought shame upon you all…”
Sure enough, Ah Er took out a whistle from his pocket and started blowing it, “Ding~~Ding~~”. Soon, several luxury cars arrived, and a group of people stepped out, forming a large group around Chu Tianyu to confront Mr. Qi and his two disciples.
No matter how many ants there are, they can’t stop an elephant’s footstep! Mr. Qi was about to say something when Chu Tianyu’s exaggerated laughter silenced him once again. He had no choice but to reassure his elders once more, sweating profusely as he listened to Chu Tianyu’s words…

Chu Tianyu said arrogantly, “Wahaha, you dog! All my men are here now. Haha, what do you think? Isn’t that impressive? Don’t get too bold with me—death awaits! Don’t try to act tough—you’ll get hurt! You’ve no one to back you in a gang fight, and you can’t even take on me one-on-one. Even if you’re skilled in martial arts, a kitchen knife can still hurt you.”

As he spoke, the so-called “brothers” of Chu Tianyu indeed pulled out kitchen knives one after another. Sure, a single kitchen knife might not seem impressive, but with many of them, it did look quite intimidating…

At least Master Qi and his two disciples were stunned—not from fear, but from disgust!

Seeing Chu Tianyu still trying to boast, Master Qi seemed to go mad at every word he said. He rushed forward with his two disciples. The “Ah Ji”s around Chu Tianyu also started shouting and charged at them with their kitchen knives. As a gang fight broke out, passersby fled to avoid getting caught in the chaos. The area in front of the geological exploration bureau quickly turned into a scene of turmoil.

Soon, with the help of his two disciples, Master Qi effortlessly knocked out those bodyguards and drove the rest away. Chu Tianyu let out a scream and ran back into the courtyard. Master Qi now hated this wastrel to the core. Even without his boss’s orders, he was determined to capture Chu Tianyu and make him suffer the consequences of being too arrogant—to make him understand what it meant to “don’t get too bold with me—death awaits!”

So, Master Qi didn’t bother with finishing things up. He left it to his two disciples to handle the remaining bodyguards and chased after Chu Tianyu into the courtyard alone.

In just a few strides, Master Qi caught up with the once-arrogant wastrel who was now scrambling away in panic. Unexpectedly, the guy suddenly turned around, almost allowing Master Qi to catch up, and started screaming, “It’s bad! It’s bad! Someone’s killing people!”

Master Qi was shocked. He hadn’t expected such a move. With that scream, he hesitated for a moment, only to see Chu Tianyu run inside the building.

Gritting his teeth, Master Qi thought, “There’s no other way. If there are people inside, kill them all to silence them. Don’t blame me—blame that little thief I brought with me!” With that, he rushed after the thief into the building.

As soon as he entered the building, he felt a cold wind strike him—weak in appearance yet incredibly powerful. Not daring to be careless, he quickly changed his stance, stepped on the celestial paths, bent his body, and instantly unleashed a masterful technique to confront that person head-on.
With a “bang~~,” Master Qi didn’t move at all, while the other person stumbled back several steps, clutching his chest and gasping for breath in horror as he stared at Master Qi in shock and frustration.
He had guarded this building for years, and such a strange incident had never happened before. First, there was noise outside, then suddenly a shout of “Someone’s being killed!” After that, a figure flashed past him and ran inside. Before he could chase after them, another person followed closely behind. He had hoped to catch them this time to save some face after his earlier carelessness, but to his surprise, the newcomer was also a practitioner. In his carelessness, he met their attack with only 30% of his strength and was instantly knocked back, vomiting blood—what frustration!
At that moment, the entire building was disturbed by Chu Tianyu’s cries. Figures “appeared” from various rooms, all seeming to be trained fighters. Master Qi had intended to launch a few more attacks, but he was stunned to find so many people here so late, and they all seemed to be skilled practitioners!
Chu Tianyu’s cries for help finally stopped in front of a middle-aged man in his forties. Gasping heavily, he pointed at Master Qi at the door, his lips pale, seemingly unable to speak from his exertion: “Save… save me! Someone’s being killed…”
The middle-aged man frowned and ignored Chu Tianyu for the moment. With a wave of his hand, several people immediately appeared and blocked Master Qi’s escape route, staring at him coldly, as if waiting for the man’s order to attack.
Now, Master Qi regretted everything. How had chasing a thief turned into this situation? Not only was there that middle-aged man, but the people around him also had great skills. If it were one-on-one, he still had a chance of winning; one-on-two, he might still be able to escape. But now, with seven or eight of them surrounding him, all his hopes were gone.
“Who are you? How did you get in? Who is trying to kill whom?” the middle-aged man asked sternly.

Chu Tianyu seemed to finally calm down. He quickly raised his hand and said, “My name is Chu Tianyu. I was just strolling on the street today when that old guy suddenly appeared, bringing two assassins with him. He claimed to be sent by Zhou Tianxing and wanted to kidnap me. If I resisted, he said he’d cut off my testicles! Luckily, my dozens of bodyguards fought desperately, giving me a chance to escape in…”
Mr. Qi felt his blood boil upon hearing this. His chest tightened, and he even felt like vomiting blood. He thought he was more wronged than Dou E—when had he ever said such things!!!
The middle-aged man’s gaze turned cold after hearing this. First, he looked at Mr. Qi, then gave a signal, and several others rushed over. Some went outside to check for any other accomplices or assassins.
After dealing with that, the middle-aged man turned to Chu Tianyu and smiled, “So, you’re Chu Tianyu?”
“That’s right, I’m Chu Tianyu. My grandfather was… my grandfather-in-law was… my uncles were…” Chu Tianyu immediately started boasting about his family.
He didn’t forget to add a few words about calling the police and informing his family to take good care of him.
Although the middle-aged man was still a bit unconvinced, he was very satisfied with Chu Tianyu’s answer. He nodded and smiled, saying, “Oh, so you’re the third son of the Chu family. Actually, I used to work for your grandfather-in-law and know your uncles quite well. By the way, tell me exactly what happened. Don’t be afraid—I’m here as your uncle!”
Mr. Qi felt even more helpless. “Don’t be afraid!” The kid had been arrogant and domineering from the start. When had he ever been afraid? And seeing the two of them starting to act as uncles and nephews, it was clear that today would end badly for that kid. It didn’t seem like things would end peacefully.
Chu Tianyu, after hearing the middle-aged man’s words, immediately puffed out his chest and raised his head high. He glanced at Mr. Qi with disdain before elaborating on the whole incident in even more exaggerated detail. Finally, as if just remembering something, he asked the middle-aged man, “By the way, uncle, who are you? You seem to be someone in power too. Leave that old guy to you today. Beat him thoroughly for me. I’ll mention you to my grandfather-in-law when I get back!”
The middle-aged man wasn’t bothered by Chu Tianyu’s rudeness. He replied with a smile, “My name is Zhan Yupeng. When you tell your grandfather-in-law, he’ll know right away!”

Chu Tianyu nodded emphatically, his expression becoming even more arrogant, with an unspoken intention to convey a message back to him once he returned showing on his face.

Zhan Yupeng then turned to the chess master and asked calmly, “Sir, do you have any comments on what that young boy just said?”

The chess master felt utterly humiliated. He thought to himself, “What more comments could I have? I have plenty of objections! When did I ever say I was sent by Zhou Tianxing? When did I ever claim those unfounded things?”

But on the surface, he couldn’t say a word, because he indeed was one of Zhou Tianxing’s men and had indeed been sent to deal with that kid. Everything the kid said was true. But the problem was, those words made him feel so ashamed—how could he express his distress?

Zhan Yupeng had also been extremely busy these past few days, working overtime until late at night. On top of that, he kept receiving calls from higher-ups day after day. Not only was their group, Longhun, in the same situation, but the other six groups were facing the same challenges as well, as incidents kept piling up one after another.

There had been fights among cultivators, murders over several days, his son’s injuries, and even a “rocket attack” in a busy area a few days ago. All of these had shocked the higher-ups, who pressured them to resolve the cases quickly.

Although it was called a “rocket attack,” experts found no traces of gunpowder or any other weapons or chemical components. He and Jiang Mingsheng from the other group both believed it was likely caused by a cultivator or someone with extraordinary abilities. But this raised another question: What kind of terrifying power would be needed to create such an effect? Was this even within the scope of human capability?

Fortunately, the clues and contradictions were gradually pointing to one person—Zhou Tianxing of Tianxing Group! Not only for the sake of his son but also to give an explanation to the higher-ups, he absolutely couldn’t let him get away!

The incident involving his son earlier had already put pressure on Zhan Yupeng, and he had faced many obstacles while interrogating and detaining that female ninja, which made him even angrier. Moreover, his son was still in the hospital. Although the toxins in his body were gradually being removed, only heaven knew if his face could be saved.

So, hearing Chu Tianyu’s “propaganda” today and considering the relationship between Tianxing Group and the Chu family, this was simply an opportunity that came knocking. The satisfaction he felt was beyond description!

Overjoyed, he found Chu Tianyu’s spoiled young master demeanor even more endearing. In fact, he had already heard his son complain about this Chu Tianyu—how he was heartless, had taken Qin Nianran for himself, and even brazenly hooked up with the daughter of Ouli Jia Bao Group. But after seeing him today, it was clear he lived up to the reputation—he was indeed a typical playboy!
“If this gentleman stays silent, does that mean he agrees?” Zhan Yupeng cunningly tried to pin a charge on him first.
“Who are you anyway to meddle in this? You’re not even a police officer. Even if you were, you can’t just believe one side of the story!” Mr. Qi knew this place was definitely not some geological exploration agency—everyone here had martial skills. Judging from the authoritative tone of that middle-aged man who called himself Zhan Yupeng, he could guess that they might have accidentally stumbled into some secret organization.
So he pretended to be confused, trying to stall. Even if the police came, it would be better than falling into their hands—this was also a way to save himself.
Zhan Yupeng didn’t explain much, only shouting to someone nearby, “Xiao Li, take Young Master Chu to the reception room to rest for now!”
Then, in an unchallengeable tone, he said to Chu Tianyu, “Young Master Chu, go ahead. I’ll be there as soon as things are sorted out!”
Chu Tianyu pretended to want to stay and watch, but was then half-enthusiastically led by Xiao Li to the reception room.
The moment Chu Tianyu stepped into the room, he heard several loud shouts, along with Zhan Yupeng’s order, “Keep him alive…” Soon, the sound of fierce fighting—punches and kicks, energy clashes—filled the hall.
Chu Tianyuto cope withed Xiao Li’s enthusiastic hospitality while secretly listening to the noises in the hall. It seemed as though everything was happening right in front of his eyes.
That Mr. Qi’s martial skills were truly remarkable—he was fighting off three attackers while still managing to switch tactics from time to time. But obviously, a few others were watching him closely, ready to strike at the slightest opportunity. This meant Mr. Qi had to divide his attention greatly.

The difference between them became clear quickly. The moment their movements changed, Mr. Qi was caught off guard as a palm strike hit his back, causing him to lose his balance and fall forward. Those surrounding him saw their chance and launched a swift ambush, using a single palm to send a gust of wind at him. Mr. Qi could only hastily raise his right palm, gathering some vital energy to block it.

Upon the collision, Mr. Qi spat out a mouthful of blood and flew sideways. Yet his momentum seemed undiminished as he crashed into the wall. Just before hitting it, he scattered a handful of black sand from his hand…

A member of the Dragon Soul rushed too fast and failed to stop in time, getting hit by the black sand. A scream immediately rang out as white smoke billowed from his body, and he seemed to melt away in a gruesome sight.

Mr. Qi took advantage of the force to break through the wall and try to escape. But just as he did, a tremendous force hit him from behind, shaking all his meridians. He spat out another mouthful of blood. Gritting his teeth, he knew this was a life-or-death moment. Even in pain, he had to endure it. Without looking back, he scattered several more handfuls of black sand, faintly seeing Zhan Yupeng’s figure blocked behind him.

Seizing this opportunity, he bit his tongue, gathered his remaining strength, and fled after a few leaps.

Behind him, Zhan Yupeng stood with his hands behind his back, seemingly unimpeded by the black sand and showing no intention of pursuing.

At that moment, several black figures appeared behind Zhan Yupeng. All of them were highly skilled in stealth, and they quickly followed Mr. Qi’s escape direction.

From the moment Zhan Yupeng suddenly unleashed his power, bypassed the black sand, and arrived in time to deliver another palm strike to Mr. Qi, it could all be described in just four words: “Faster than lightning!”

This surprised Chu Tianyu, who was listening from the next room. Especially his suddenly unleashed powerful energy, which was unfathomable—far surpassing even the master of the Heavenly Dao Temple from years ago! Moreover, that energy didn’t seem to stem entirely from the Heavenly Dao Temple; it seemed to be supported by some other formidable force.

Although Zhan Yupeng’s power surprised Chu Tianyu, the outcome of his handling of the situation was as expected. Letting Mr. Qi go was the best choice. People like him, who joined powerful families with their cultivation skills, usually had special needs that needed to be met. Otherwise, if they only wanted wealth, they could easily live a carefree life by relying on their skills.

And even if he’s captured, whether he admits it or not is another matter. Based solely on Chu Tianyu’s words, it’s at most a threat; as for the deaths of his subordinates, he can claim self-defense. Moreover, Tianxing Group’s influence cannot be underestimated, so it’s not advisable to impose other charges on him. It’s better to wait and catch a bigger fish. Hmph, Zhou Tianxing, with today’s incident, so many colleagues witnessing it, and a life lost—don’t blame me if I rightfully use all my resources to bring you down!
……
After that, Chu Tianyu chatted inside for a while before, under the escort of people sent by Zhan Yupeng, strutting in and getting into his car. Watching the spectacular drama he had orchestrated, he deeply realized that arrogance like Bai Lei’s was actually a better and more satisfying form of disguise and “low profile”…
At the same time, as he looked at the documents handed to him by a disciple from the martial arts school in the car, his mood shifted, and he couldn’t help but snort coldly, “Since you’re willing to come to China to seek death, let me show you what it really means to touch a tiger’s tail!”
