After a few turns, the car drove onto the highway.

“Martial grand-uncle, there is a sniper that is aiming at our car,” Du Xiaowei looked at a monitor in the car and said casually. The reason that he said it casually was because this car had already been altered by Sun Sikong. Don’t talk about the commonly used armor-piercing rounds, even small missile won’t hurt the people within the car. It was also Sun Sikong that installed this security system.

“Are you sure they are targeting us?” I asked.

“They should be, ever since we got onto the highway, the Dodge Ram has always moved around in front of us. There’s something wrong with the Jinbei van behind us as well. Although the people inside didn’t use infrared to aim, it is very possible that they are with the people in front,” sai Du Xiaowei.

“Oh!” I nodded. Someone wants to kill me? I frowned. There didn’t seem to be anyone that had such a deep hatred for me within Yanjing city, right? The Daxing Gang did have this ability, but Situ Dashan can’t be stupid enough to go and destroy the balance.

“What should I do?” Du Xiaowei asked after seeing me not react.

“Capture one to ask! How about that, you can handle it yourself, right?” I asked.

“No problem!” Du Xiaowei suddenly accelerated and surpassed the Dodge Ram in front of us, then stopped the car horizontally. Since we were an extra long car, we pretty much completely blocked the road off, so the other person couldn’t pass through at all.

The Dodge Ram also stopped sideways by the road with a sharp screech. Then, the Jinbei followed right after.

Du Xiaowei did not open the car door, and instead waited for their next action. Although Du Xiaowei wore a bulletproof vest and was confident that he could dodge the bullets, it would still cause him to be passively exposed under the tip of their gun. He didn’t have an issue with protecting himself, but it would make capturing the enemy’s alive more difficult.

It was as he expected, they didn’t have the patience like that of Du Xiaowei, they came to kill and this was the highway, if they delay it a bit, it will attract the attention of the police.

When the door of the Dodge Ram opened, a masked man in black clothing jumped down from the door, carrying a mini rocket launcher.

This is a bit too fierce. Although the defensive capabilities of my car is very good, I will feel some heart ache for it to get hit until it looks completely different.

Yet, at this moment, Du Xiaowei also moved. He opened the door swiftly, and arrived in front of the black clothed man carrying the rocket launcher with a few tumbles and quickly struck his hand towards the his weakness.

Although a rocket launcher was powerful, it wasn’t of any use at close range at all. In fact, it wasn’t as good as a kitchen knife.

The black clothed man didn’t think that the people on the car would still dare to get off at this moment. With his many years of assassination experience, the people that were going to be killed would all tremble in their car in fear, while they continuously called the police.

The black clothed man could only throw down the rocket launcher in his hand and fight with Du Xiaowei in melee range. However, he wasn’t Du Xiaowei’s opponent at all. Before he made a move, Du Xiaowei had already chopped on the back of his neck. The black clothed person felt a chill in his heart, his opponent was a master! It might not be much if a normal person squeezes onto the back of someone’s neck, but when it was squeezed by a master, they might break your beck any time.

At this moment, the door of Jinbei opened, and a few masked people with guns rushed down. Just s Du Xiaowei was about to get mad, these people all threw down the gun in his hand onto the ground, then took off their masks and said respectfully, “Instructor… Why are you here…”

Du Xiaowei glanced at the people in front of him, they were actually his mercenary subordinates in South Africa. Although Du Xiaowei couldn’t name these people, he definitely had an impression of these people. Thus, he also let go of the person in his hand.

The person that was in his hand coughed for a long time, then finally said after taking off his mask, “Sorry, Instructor! I didn’t know that you were on the car.”

Du Xiaowei let out a sigh of relief, he didn’t expect that the people assassinating them would be his own subordinates.

“Who is the one in the lead?” Du Xiaowei asked.

At this moment, a young man carrying a sniper rifle jumped down from the front of the Dodge Ram and said a bit awkwardly, “Instructor, it’s me! Codename Red Eagle reporting in!”

Du Xiaowei looked at the current situation. It was fortunate that this highway was rather rural and so there weren’t many passing cars, otherwise, that would be troublesome.

“Red Eagle, get on my car. Everyone else, drive and follow behind me!” Du Xiaowei ordered.

“Yes, sir!” The mercenaries had a strict regulation, and the orders of the highest ranking commander was the final orders, so Du Xiaowei directly took over Red Eagle’s command.

“Sorry, instructor! I did not research thoroughly enough and did not consider everything!” Red Eagle took the initiative to apologize.

“You can’t be blamed for this! Tell me about what exactly happened?” Du Xiaowei waved his hand and asked simply without any intention of blaming Red Eagle. Mercenaries were people that took money in exchange of helping people deal with threats, they definitely did not know beforehand that he was going to be there.

“Yes, sir! We received a deal of ten billion yuan on our internet system. The target is called Liu Lei. They provided us with Liu Lei’s tracks and this car’s car plate number!” Red Eagle replied directly.

“Oh? So it’s like this!” Du Xiaowei gave a brief thought then said. “Inform me when you receive a deal in Huaxia from now on. Tell the current one in charge about this when you return!”

“Yes! Instructor!” answered Red Eagle.

“Do you know the identity of the employer this time?” Du Xiaowei asked.

“Not sure. They made the deal completely through the internet. The bank account is also an protected one from the Swiss Bank. We are unable to know the identity of the employer!” answered Red Eagle.

“Okay. Tell them when you get back that the security in Huaxia is rather tight before Chinese New Year, so you were unable to bring the weapon into the country. Return the money to him them first. If they really are interested, they will contact you guys after Chinese New Year. When that happens,, tell him to directly contact me!” said Du Xiaowei.

“Yes, sir!” answered Red Eagle.

“Okay, don’t go back to South Africa for now. It seems like it isn’t safe on the road. Stay here and be responsible for protecting Mr. Liu!” Du Xiaowei smiled. “Even your instructor, I, is his personal bodyguard and you guys actually want to kill him!”

“Instructor, how were we supposed to know. We really attacked our own people, how can we match up to instructor!” Hearing Du Xiaowei no longer being serious, Red Eagle also revealed his honest side.

As the provincial capital of Songjiang province, the economy in Songjiang city improved rapidly under the lead of several large corporations such as Shuguang Corporation.

However, we were still very eye-catching with a Jinbei opening the path, followed by an extra long Bentley and a Dodge Ram.

When the Jinbei stopped at a crossroad, Du Xiaowei took over Red Eagle’s walkie-talkie and said to the subordinates in the car in front, “What is it?”

“Instructor, there is a traffic accident in front. The road is too narrow, so we’re unable to pass through!” replied the subordinates in front.

“Let’s go down and have a look!” I said to Du Xiaowei.

“Hehe, we have the Shuguang Corporation as our backing. No matter how much money he has, we can cause him to get nothing back!” Hearing that that was the case, I immediately said without any worries. “Shuguang Corporation?…



“Hehe, we have the Shuguang Corporation as our backing. No matter how much money he has, we can cause him to get nothing back!” Hearing that that was the case, I immediately said without any worries.

“Shuguang Corporation? You’re talking about Zhao Yanyan’s father? Isn’t he the CEO? There’s still the chairman of the board!” Liu Yue asked.

“The chairman is me, your hubby!” I chuckled. “Since now you have become mine, there isn’t much for me to hide from you. Now you know why I’m not afraid of the Situ family, right? Compared to my powers, he’s nothing, I can destroy him in any way! Of course, the Situ family doesn’t know that!”

“Ah!” Liu Yue was shocked. Although she had a faint idea that I must have some other amazing identity, she didn’t think it would be that amazing! Being the chairman of the number 1 corporation in the world, there really wasn’t anything to be scared of, I was able to cause the Situ family’s properties to go bankrupt just by throwing money.

“Oh yeah, Xiao Yue’yue, go and sell the car shop tomorrow. Don’t do something that is worrisome and doesn’t earn money. Just shop calmly with Yanyan and them. Researching about make-up and working out is what girls your age should do. Just leave money earning stuff to hubby in the future!” I said.

“Mhmm,” Liu Yue nodded. “I can hand it to the subordinates to manage! That wouldn’t waste any energy either!”

“Okay then, it’s up to you! Move over tomorrow. I’ll go and mention it to the Situ family. If they aren’t understanding, then don’t blame me for being merciless!” I said. “After I a few days, I have to go back to Songjiang. Come with me to see my parents, then we can go and see that old geezer, Liu Zhenhai!”

“No calling him Liu Zhenhai, you have to call him grandpa!” Liu Yue patted me.

“He nearly killed me and I still have to call him grandpa?” I chuckled.

“Of course, give me some face, okay!” Liu Yue said coquettishly.

“Alright!” I sighed, then thought to myself, we’ll just see then.

“Do you know martial arts?” I suddenly asked.

“Yeah, why?” Liu Yue didn’t hide it, perhaps because she had completely handed her heart to me.

“Do all people from your Six Renowned Families know martial arts?” I asked.

“Mhmm, more or less, why did you suddenly ask that?” Liu Yue asked.

“No, I’m just rather interested in that martial competition. I can use that as a chance to get rid of Situ Liang. I get annoyed whenever I see him, he actually dared to have ill intentions towards two of my wifeys!” I said angrily.

“He… It seems like you snatched us away…” Liu Yue giggled.

I only left after Liu Yue fell asleep. When I walked out of my room, it really was as I expected. Zhao Yanyan, Chen Weier and even the obedient Yu Ting was lying by my door.

“Hehe, my many wifeys, what were you trying to eavesdrop? Should I punish you with our family’s rules?” I said lecherous.

“We’re scared that you ⓕⓤⓒⓚⓔⓓ Liu Yue to death, so we came to invigilate a little!” Zhao Yanyan giggled.

“Since it’s like that, then come into the room and see!” I chuckled and led the three of them into the bedroom.

It truly was going to be a sleepless night!”

As for the Situ family’s side, I got someone to pass along a message. The Three Rock Gang and Daxing Gang can retain their current state of not interfering with one another. As long as we don’t cross each other’s final line, then it was peace. As for Liu Yue, I just told Situ Dashan that it was the freedom of love.

Situ Dashan did not explode over this, and destroy the peace that was just established. He didn’t think that I was getting an inch and taking a foot, and instead thought that I must have had some sort of confidence. He could tell that I was someone that liked to hide my own strength from me hiding behind the scenes of the Three Rock Gang. People like that usually would not show their full strength, and these were the people that will give you the fatal blow. That’s why, although Situ Dashan was pissed, he still sent a message over in a very fake manner “The world belongs to you young people, us, the older generation will not interfere”.

There was also the fact that this marriage didn’t have any benefits for the Situ Family. The crafty old Situ Dashan already saw through it all and understood Liu Zhenhai’s intentions, so he didn’t take it to heart.

However, Situ Liang didn’t think so, despite him not liking Liu Yue much. (It’s because Liu Yue completely disregarded him and since a young master like him can’t take this sort of attitude, he naturally thought that Liu Yue just had a cold personality).

Yet, Situ Liang had viewed this marriage to be full of hope and anticipation, that’s because once he marries into the Liu Family, it means that he will be able to climb up to a peak of power that was equal to the Situ Family. When that happens, he no longer had to act according to his older brother, Situ Kong!

The thirst for money and power pretty much caused Situ Liang to go insane. Yet, this beautiful future was actually destroyed by a negligible brat. From his perspective, I’m just a puny bug that relies on his woman’s family. However, he didn’t think that his thirst for the Liu family was just a display of him relying on a woman.

Situ Liang was completely pissed off about the current result. He understood that if this continues, he would have nothing left. Although he was still the second young master of the Situ family and could enjoy the rich life that other people would dream of for their entire life, he was more fascinated by the sort of life where he could command everyone in the family and casually deal in business deals of millions, billions or even trillions

Situ Liang had already treated Liu Lei as the criminal behind all this. A crazy thought popped up in his mind – hiring someone to kill him! Only with Liu Lei dying could his hatred be please. Only then could he have a chance to turn the tables.

Thus, Situ Liang found the website of an international mercenary organization from a few of his trusted underlings in the Daxing Gang.

Don’t blame Laozi for being evil, who told you to destroy Laozi’s future! Situ Liang couldn’t help but suppress the excitement in his heart. He opened the website with a tremble and registered, filled in his bank account and paid the deposit. After that, he filled in the payment amount and of course, the person he wants to kill.

After completing all that, Situ Liang danced around excitedly. Why did he thought of such a genius idea before? The people of the old truly said it well, talents comes from desperate situations.

So he was a highly intellectual criminal as well!

Situ Liang was truly going all out for this, he pretty much threw all his personal savings into it. Although ten million yuan wasn’t comparable to the wage to assassinate the leader of some small countries, it was already a large amount.

Huaxia has a saying of the old. If Yama wants you to die at five o’clock, who would dare to leave you until nine? But what if Yama doesn’t want you to die?

I think my old bro Yama wouldn’t want me to die early either, right?

On the Chinese New Year Eve of 1999, Zhao Yanyan, Chen Weier, Liu Yue and I sat on the extra-long Bentley Red Label, driven by Du Xiaowei, to return to Songjiang. Since the train and plane were very crowded before Chinese New Year, it was not as convenient as driving back ourselves.

Chapter 108
Pursuit

Chu Shen was walking down the road, looking around at the forest and admiring the view. Somewhere ahead of him was Lucas along with the wagons pulling the kids. So far it had already been four days and they were easily miles ahead of him by now.

Especially since they were not planning on stopping to rest at all. Lucas would hunt down beasts and cook them ahead of the wagon so that the kids could eat and not starve.

Inside his pocket was a small coin sized broadcaster that would allow Chu Shen to contact Lucas. With it, he would be able to tell them when the Asura, Ice Dragon, and Golden Palm sects adventurers would come to him.

Chu Shen took his time relaxing and pondering while he was walking. What he was thinking of was what he was going to do in this world. So far, Chu Shen had never had a true plan when he went into different dimensions. Most of the time he was just doing whatever he wanted while trying to get stronger.

The biggest plan he ever had was to get money or get out of trouble like he had with the Black Rose Guild. This time though, he needed a plan. These kids were depending upon him.

He couldn’t accept their word for it, but at the very least they had no reason to lie to him. If the Asura sect was as bloodthirsty as they said, it was not going to end well. Going up against assassins was never a good idea.

Chu Shen could not accept the fact that these kids would die. At this point though, the grudge they had could not end unless one side died or the other. So long as the Asura, Ice Dragon, and Golden Palm Sect, especially the Asura Sect, was around then they would not let these kids survive in peace.

So what could Chu Shen do then? With the cultivation techniques he had and the radical method of unblocking meridians, these kids could become strong very quickly. With that, Chu Shen would easily let them take revenge against those dastardly sects that would kill even kids.

However, what would he do then? How long would it take to do that anyways? Two, three years? As far as he could tell, the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion would go to different dimensions randomly. He couldn’t depend upon being around to help them.

So he had to make the kids self-reliant. Otherwise, they would be left vulnerable and possibly in a worse position than when he had tried to help. Of course he had to do so while not completely destroying the balance of the world.

Technology, once it was shared, could not be taken back. However, since the cultivation techniques Chu Shen had were useless unless he used his own Qi, the power balance would only be affected temporarily. It wouldn’t make widespread changes.

So, what was his plan for this dimension, for these kids? Chu Shen didn’t know yet. What he did know was that he had to help them somehow. The best way he could help was by protecting them and making them stronger using cultivation techniques. Everything else would have to be planned out with some consulting with the teachers and wagon drivers.

However, he would have to act like he would disappear into thin air the next minute. Especially because he just might.

Chu Shen looked away from the side of the road. He heard something coming. Glancing back, he saw men in black clothes riding horses. Chu Shen observed them as they slowly caught up with him.

They had masks on their faces that had horns and demonic faces. Black robes cloaked their bodies with a hood covering the rest of their faces. A badge of a red man with the same demonic face as the one on their masks was on the chest of each one but some had different amount of arms on the badge.

The man in the front had a badge with six arms wielding six swords coming out of its sides. The three behind him had five arms wielding swords with two emerging from each of the red man’s sides and the fifth arm coming from behind the man like a scorpion’s tale.

The other nine men behind them had badges with four arms. All of them exuded a sense of unparalleled killing intent. Chu Shen felt all of the hair on his arms stand on edge as he felt his body turn cold. Clearly these people were dangerous, a cut above all of his other enemies.

Chu Shen waited until they passed before using his soul sense to scan them. As he did, Master Ti Wu, who usually sat down inside the Voids Hand, stood up. “Seems like my disciple might need my help this time.” He said, stroking his chin as he stared upwards, seemingly to see out of the library and into the world.

Meanwhile, Chu Shen used his soul sense on the enemy. The enemy had one rank six adventurer, three rank five adventurer, and nine rank four adventurers. Immediately Chu Shen made the connection with the badge of the red man and the amount of arms each one had.

However, as the soul sense was completed, the man at the front with the six arm badge turned around and stared right at Chu Shen. A red light flashed in the eye sockets of the man. A searing heat lanced towards Chu Shen, catching him right in the chest and sent him flying backwards. His clothes caught on fire and his skin started burning as he tumbled on the ground

Luckily, his skin was remarkably tough from the constant tempering from the <Void King> technique. Otherwise the heat may have penetrated into his inner organs causing him to become severely injured. Instead, his skin only became mildly burned. Chu Shen quickly activated his body shield, allowing his null Qi to extinguish the heat.

The red light in the eyes of the man disappeared. A rough, hoarse voice came out from beneath the mask. “Lowly characters like you should stay out our business. If you try and use that technique again, I will not be so kind as to use a mere <Stare of The Asura>.”

Chu Shen stayed on the ground and merely observed as they continued riding past him. Master Ti Wu sat back down inside the Voids Hand. “Humph. Seems like he got lucky.”

One of the men with a five arm badge rode up next to the six arm badge. “Forgive me Vajra Asura, what do you mean when you said he used a technique against us? I felt nothing.”

The man he called Vajra Asura shook his head. “As an Agni Asura I expect better. Did you not feel as though someone was staring at you just a moment ago?”

The Agni Asura expressed some confusion. “Yes, but what of it? I thought it was merely that kid being curious.”

The Vajra Asura shook his head. Three Agni Asura and nine Dhara Asura and yet none of them were sensitive enough to mana. This was one of the reasons why they could not advance to another rank even if warriors supposedly could advance forever.

“The mana fluctuated abnormally at the same time as I felt that stare. It must have been a technique of some kind. I do not know it’s purpose but it must not be good. Pay more attention to the surrounding mana otherwise the assassin may be the one ambushed.” The Vajra Asura said in an offhand voice.

The Agni Asura bowed at him. “Thank you for advice Vajra Asura. It is rare to meet one of the three backbones of the Asura Sect. However, why did you not kill him?”

The Vajra Asura shook his head. “The <Stare of The Asura> was a test. If he had not been injured at all then he may have posed a threat to us. With the damage done to him he would be the equivalent of an Dhara Asura. With me here, he would not pose a threat to us. Why kill an ant if we do not need to?”

“Your words ring true as always.” The Agni Asura said. The Vajra Asura ignored the obvious flatter and continued riding on.

The Agni Asura fell back into formation with the other two Agni Asura. The continued on their way. Chu Shen was able to hear them since they were still in earshot. It turns out they were from the Asura Sect.

Chu Shen shook his head. <Stare of The Asura>. A technique that used mana and fired it from the eyes. If he had his body shield up, he would have been able to block it fairly easy. Unfortunately he gave no warning before launching the attack.

Luckily it was a light blow combined with his strong body. Otherwise taking a Rank 6 warriors attack without armor, the equivalent of a Martial Army Cultivator, would have resulted in death or severe injury at best.

Chu Shen reached into his pocket. Taking out the broadcaster he activated it. “Lucas. They’re coming.”

[Vol. 5] Chapter 8 - Gargoyle

Three Gargoyles danced over our heads. They have an abominable appearance. Is the reason for their silence them being stone statues, I wonder?  It's even weirder that they attack while not uttering a single sound. "Here they come……Shoot…



Three Gargoyles danced over our heads.
They have an abominable appearance. Is the reason for their silence them being stone statues, I wonder?
 It’s even weirder that they attack while not uttering a single sound.

“Here they come……Shoot now!”

 At Crescent Moon’s command, a sling and a bow were fired at once.
 The arrow which Crescent Moon shot hit the right Gargoyle’s wing which aimed for Doji.
 The Gargoyle lost its posture while trying to attack for an instant because of the shock.

“Oops-a-daisy!”

 Not missing this chance, Doji jumped up and swung his axe down on it.
 The fellow that got blown down by the shock hastily tries to fix its posture in the air.
 Mmm, it’s rather resilient to not get torn from that.
 However, the damage seemed to take its toll on it.

 Pick slung a stone with her sling at the Gargoyle which came from the furthest end of the hall.
 The stone leaving the sling which got buffed by the beautiful Priestess of Darkness Kitora exploded as soon as it hit.
 As it wasn’t able to come over here anymore this attack had enough power to confine it.

“This is great, isn’t it?!”

“Right? Well, though it’s simple magic it’s useful. You, shall I bestow this onto your sword as well?”

 Kitora turned towards me and asked me proudly.
 A Great sword that explodes whenever it cuts something is dangerous and I can’t bring myself to use something like that.

“No, I’m good”

“What, how boring. It seemed interesting.”

 While saying such things Knopf shot her storm magic towards the Gargoyle on the left.
 The Gargoyle got rolled up in a cyclone.
 Because of its hard skin this, too, seemed to be ineffective but it lost its balance.
 But he kept pushing towards me even while being like that.
 Okay, let’s try and see if flames are effective against you, shall we?

“Fire Sword”

 I call Reus and chant the incantation.
 The Great Sword I held in both of my hands was instantly covered in flames.
 I slashed at the Gargoyle heading towards me with the sword coated in flames.
 Bang!
 A strong shock as if I hit rock rings through my hands.
 Isn’t this too hard?
 If this sword wasn’t made out of Oricalcum it would have absolutely shattered.
 Oh well, it may be more common to smash things instead of cutting them with a great sword like this.

“Oh, you did it, Akatsuki!”

 For a moment, I took my eyes of the enemy and unintentionally looked at the blade before Crescent Moon’s voice brought me back to my senses.
 When I looked back at the Gargoyle it fell and hit the ground.
 It seems like my sword hit the root of its wings and now couldn’t fly anymore because they are half torn off.
 Looks like my author’s cheat is in good health, huh?
 Anyway, I’m glad I was able to deal some damage.

“I’ll finish it – – Stone Spear!”

 The moment Knopf cast her magic a pointed, inverted cone-shaped, stone spear appeared over the Gargoyles head.
 The lump of stone which exceeds 40 centimetres in diameter is more than a meter long.
 Isn’t that thing considerably heavy?
 Even though it’s magic, for something like this to float in mid-air.
 That gigantic spear — too humongous to call it just a spear — dropped straight down on the Gargoyle.
 Dooooon!
 It blew up dirt and dust as it crashed into the Gargoyle.
 This is the power called weight.
 Despite the Gargoyle originating from a stone statue and in conclusion being hard, it got smashed into oblivion not even leaving a piece of stone in its place.

“Uoo, this is amazing as well!”

 Crescent Moon raised a surprised voice addressing the power of Knopf’s magic.

“It’s impossible to aim with something of that size so I just dropped it down on it”

 Knopf answered casually.
 Despite it being magic one can’t completely ignore the mass, huh?
 By the way, from where did you take the stone to form this spear?

 While I was troubled about such things, Crescent Moon cooperates with Doji and tossed around one of the Gargoyles.
 Crescent Moon shot the wings which seem to have low defence and Doji strikes it while its speed was low.
 That fellow was visibly weakened by the repetition of those actions.
 Its wings were already torn up.
 There didn’t seem to be an issue there.

“Big bro, here comes the next one!”

 The black Gargoyle which got confined by Pick’s sling came over here.
 Meanwhile, stones were exploding around it one after another.
 Black magic sure is handy.
 Let’s experiment with it a little more.

 I instructed Reus to convert the flames of my Fire Sword into heat.
 The flames disappeared from my sword and before it flared up with a red-hot shine.
 As it would become too soft if it’s too hot I asked Reus to be careful regarding that.
 I tried to slash at the Gargoyle which came into the range of my red Great Sword.
 ――Oh.
 There was less shock than a while ago and as an effect of the heat, it somehow was able to cut.

“Big bro, it works!”

 Yes, I think so, too.
 It made a crack rather than a big scratch on its body and the Gargoyle flew back in reactionary motion.
 It couldn’t fly high and its movements seemed pained.
 I can do this!
 I flew towards it and slashed at it in a flurry.
 Kashing!
 The Gargoyle’s body split in two under the shock and then shattered.

“We’re done over here as well”

 Crescent Moon and Doji blew down the right Gargoyle safely, too.
 It somehow seems like an inorganic monster.
 I thought such things while I watched the pieces turn to dust.

“Those Gargoyles are the same as golems and are artificial demonic beasts made with black magic”

 As if she read my mind Kitora explained this to me.
 As I thought, this dungeon is managed by someone and probably made by the same person, isn’t it?
 This seems to be complicated.

[Vol. 5] Chapter 7 - Underground Labyrinth

"Ah, it's probably here. Please be careful"  As Pick warned everyone she leant down and knocked on the stone pavement.  As she jumped backwards the floor collapsed with a rattling sound. "That surprised me. Is that a trap?"…



“Ah, it’s probably here. Please be careful”

 As Pick warned everyone she leant down and knocked on the stone pavement.
 As she jumped backwards the floor collapsed with a rattling sound.

“That surprised me. Is that a trap?”

“Yeah, I discovered it when we came here a while back.”

“Hooh~, that’s incredible. If it was just me I would have fallen for this probably.”

 After seeing Doji’s surprised, round eyes Pick looked proud.
 Not probably, you would have most certainly fallen for this.
 Me as well but I can’t tell the others.

“Then, let’s get down quickly.”

“Right. Then, Pick, if you would”

 Pick nods to my words.

“Then I’ll go down”

 I have Knopf send down a light ball along with Pick who climbs down a rope.
 Crescent Moon went down next this time as well.

“Heeeey, Mister, all clear”

 After hearing Crescent Moon’s voice from the bottom the remaining members go down, too.
 First, it’s Knopf’s turn then Doji’s.

“Could you go next?”

 Kitora told me.
 But, you see, something like last time might happen.
 Though I’d be happy getting such a lucky pervert moment ⌈1⌋ I’d like to be excused from her anger.

“If I fall who will catch me beside you? Go down quickly!”

 Kitora thrust her finger towards me who was hesitant and said that.
 I didn’t have a choice … I went down.
 When I climbed down and arrived, sure enough, I saw a butt falling from the top.
 As I anticipated it I had some margin this time around.

“Come on, let me down quickly! For how long do you want to keep touching me?!”

 I’d like it if you wouldn’t get so angry every time.
 This is my dignity as a villain.
 Also, Crescent Moon, stop looking at me with those eyes.
 But I’m satisfied as I got to enjoy this soft feeling.

 We went on the same route as we did last time.
 And just like last time Vampire bats and Goblins come out one after another.

“There are a lot this time. I bet the nest was restored.”

Just as Crescent Moon said, the Goblin’s nest was restored as well.
 There was no fence like last time, though.
 It feels like they didn’t have enough time.

“It feels the same as last time so we don’t have to worry too much, right?”

“That’s right, they are easily dealt with if we blow them away with that magic.”

 Crescent Moon winks at Knopf.
 It seemed like her inhibitions towards Knopf were completely wiped away.

“Time is of the essence, let’s force our way through here. First, Knopf and I will shoot some fireballs inside.”

 Knopf nodded.

“Then Crescent Moon and Doji will form the vanguard and head inside there. Pick and Kitora will attack from behind them. Although this is pretty aggressive we can go with this.”

“So it’s my turn. My arms are tingling with excitement”

 Don’t get too fired up either, Doji.

“Then, let’s go!”

 I call the spirit salamander, Reus, and shoot a fireball together with Knopf while letting out a shout.
 The Goblins who saw us headed our way while screaming Giiii Giiii.
 The two fireballs drew a great parabola and landed inside the nest behind the Goblins before exploding.
 A powerful explosion, like the ones one could see in war movies, occurred and blew the Goblins away.
 At that moment Crescent Moon and Doji headed inside.

“I show you my axe skills!”

 Whenever Doji swung his huge axe the Goblins in the circumference got blown away and beaten down.
 Crescent Moon who was swinging her swords as well took some distance from him as to not get rolled up in his attacks.
 There didn’t seem to be any upper-class monsters around either so it was an easy victory.
 Pick attacks with her sling and I also got to practice my fireball throwing.
 My accuracy was fairly good as well, better than before.

“Injured people are unlikely to appear so it seems like I’m pretty much free.”

“Right, it doesn’t seem to matter if magic is used or not.”

 Knopf and Kitora were comfortable chatting in the rear.
 Meanwhile, the Goblins seemed to have been exterminated.
 How disappointing.

“So, from this point on it’ll be the real deal.”

“Cause we’ve no idea what’ll appear”

 Crescent Moon advanced deeper into the destroyed nest while being fired up.
 Pick also moved while carefully checking the area.

“Ah, watch out. Poisoned arrows”
 While saying that, Pick tries to deactivate the trap.
 Her profile looked unusually serious.
 It seems to be a device which would shoot arrows from one’s blind spot if one stepped on the stone floor.

“Hey, be careful”

“I’m fine, big bro.……Okay, that should do it.”

 Pick stood up while wiping off the sweat flowing from her forehead.
 Anyway, this hobbit’s age is still unknown.

“Though there are traps here don’t you think it kind of doesn’t feel like “I won’t let you advance no matter what”?”

“Right, if anything, their purpose seems to be to sort out the intruders”

 Kitora answered Knopf.
 For what reason would one choose to test the intruders’ ability?

“It’s enemies!”

 We entered a place which seemed like a large, open hall when Crescent Moon briefly raised her voice.
 I and Doji grabbed our weapons and replaced Pick and Crescent Moon as the vanguard.

“Where’s the enemy?”

 Doji looked around with his axe in hand.
 Certainly, an enemyish figure is……hm?

“It’s that, take a closer look”

 There were three pillars which seem to support the high ceiling of this hall.
 Eerie stone statues with the appearance of birds were embedded in the upper parts of the pillars.
 Don’t they seem to move slowly?

“A Gargoyle”

“Mister, good answer — look”

 Crescent Moon took the bow she had hung over her shoulder and took out an arrow.
 As we are in a labyrinth she gave priority to manoeuvrability rather than range.
 As one would expect she’s really skilled.
 The shot arrow flew towards the closest stone statue and struck wonderfully.
 It’s not a stone statue after all as the arrow got stuck in it.
 As I was thinking that, the stone statues took off all at once.

“What’s this?”

 Doji who looked up towards the demonic beasts, which he saw for the first time today, raised a loud voice.
 When they opened their wings they revealed an even more abominable figure which literally screamed demonic beast.
 Of course, this is my first time seeing the real thing as well.
 I have often seen them in games.

“Be careful, they will attack from above and their claws are drenched in petrifaction poison.”

“Uhya, I don’t want to turn into stone.”

 I agree as well.
 I don’t want to be turned into a stone statue and end up as decoration for this place.

“Don’t they have a weak point?”

“They were stone statues originally so their skin is hard and blades can’t really cut through it. But they are surprisingly fragile when physically hit.”

“Hitting stuff is my forte!”

 Doji got fired up.
 My Great Sword seems to be better in smashing than cutting as well.
 The only annoying thing is that they fly around somewhere above.

“First, we’ll restrain them with my arrows and the cat-eared magician’s magic. As it’s difficult to hit any vitals when they are flying around, shoot over its eyes and drag it down to a level where we can hit.”

“If that’s the case I’ll lend a hand as well. Miss Thief, I will bestow on your sling an explosion buff so shoot steadily.”

 As she said this Kitora started to chant.
 Then Pick’s sling starts to shine in a suspicious, black light.

“Uwa, amazing. I’ll go, too!”



 


  1. Lucky sukebe. Those accidental ecchi scenes 

[Vol. 5] Chapter 6 – Exploration

[Vol. 5] Chapter 6 - Exploration

"Crescent Moon, Kouga village was around here, right?" "Yeah, you remembered well. Don't get careless, they might watch us."  Crescent Moon answered my question earnestly. "What's that Kouga village you are talking about?" "You, you don't even know…



“Crescent Moon, Kouga village was around here, right?”

“Yeah, you remembered well. Don’t get careless, they might watch us.”

 Crescent Moon answered my question earnestly.

“What’s that Kouga village you are talking about?”

“You, you don’t even know that? Is that what they call ignorance?”

 Kitora who sat behind Doji on the same horse hurls biting words at him.
 Doji looked offended for an instant but didn’t say anything.
 I get it, he doesn’t want to anger her and be used for “that”.

“Doji do you remember the men wearing black who attacked us in the capital?”

“Yeah, the time Ca……Akatsuki-sama and Frau-san had their secret date, right?”

 Oops, that was dangerous, those were things I did as Carlo.
 Though Crescent Moon and Knopf know that Akatsuki and Carlo are one and the same person, Pick and Kitora don’t.
 Doji, good job for noticing that.
 But this confusing setting isn’t something I can handle, I think.

“Secret date, huh? Mister does this at other places as well?”

 Crescent Moon looked at me coldly.
 Isn’t it fine? It doesn’t have anything to do with you anyway!

“Ehem. Anyway, those fellows come from Kouga village. They seem to be called the dark army.”

“The dark army, huh? That sounds kind of cool”

“The Rabbit Group is also cool! Right, big bro?”

 Pick, that’s slightly different.
 Though I gave them this uncool name to punish you it seems to be well liked.

“What might a Rabbit Group be?”

“It’s the name big bro Akatsuki gave our group. Cool, right?”

 Pick proudly explained this to Kitora.

“Ye, yeah……that’s right. I think it’s a good name.”

 Even Kitora with her sharp tongue wasn’t able to give her honest opinion when faced with those sparkling eyes.
 She answered awkwardly while avoiding her gaze.

“Right~? Big sis Crescent Moon is also included. Why don’t you enter the Rabbit Group as well, Kitora?”

“Eh, ehm, I’ll have to decline. Look, I’m already serving the god, Gladis”

“I see, that’s a shame”

 Crescent Moon and Knopf who heard this exchange butted in from behind.

“Hey, hey, I think I heard something dangerous there. Who entered the Rabbit Group at what point of time? I don’t remember entering such a strange group!”

“Eeh~, big sis was our honorary member since a long time ago. Kind of like a vice-head!”

“Give me a break. I’ve been a one-woman-group, a lone wolf up until now. There’s no way I’d become your comrade”

 As she said that Crescent Moon charged ahead at full speed with her horse.

“Good grief, big sis sure is shy”

 Pick wasn’t discouraged at all.
 You’re pretty optimistic.

 Meanwhile, we arrived at the Stone Labyrinth’s entrance.
Nothing noteworthy happened on our journey either.
 The stone arch and the stairs were unchanged from the time we last came here.
 It’s an S grade dungeon which claimed many victims so we can’t be careless.

“Well then, what’s your purpose for participating in this exploration this time?”

 Knopf looked around into each of our faces.

“For me, it’s money, of course. I’ll make a profit by finding treasures no one was able to find before”

 Crescent Moon’s eyes have already turned into $ marks.
 Though I say this I agree with her this time.
 Anyway, it’s hopeless if I don’t earn any money.

“I only came along to protect Akatsuki-sama, I don’t have any special purpose other than that.”

“I came along as it seemed interesting though I’d be happy if I could earn some money.”

 Doji and Pick gave such reasons.

“As for me, let’s see. I’d like to confirm something I was a little concerned about last time.”

“What does that mean?”

“Hmm, well, I’ll talk about it later. For now, it’s a s-e-c-r-e-t.”⌈1

 The beautiful Priestess of Darkness Kitora winked at Pick and the cat-eared magician.
 Though I have that feeling it’s nothing good or is that just my imagination?

“Understood. I just have an academical interest so I don’t have any particular purpose in doing this exploration. Akatsuki-san, how do we do this?”

“Let’s see, in battle Doji and I will be the vanguard, Pick and Crescent Moon will be the attack group and Kitora and Knopf will support us with magic from behind.”

“Mister, is it fine if Pick and I take the front when we walk through the labyrinth’s passageways?”

“Yeah, because there might be traps, huh? Then please do so.”

“Okay, then Mister will take the back in case of a raid or surprise attack.”

 Like this our formation was decided.
 During the exploration Pick and Crescent Moon form the vanguard after them there are Knopf, Kitora and Doji followed by me who forms the rear-guard.
 This formation is great for letting Knopf and I illuminate the way from the back and front with our light ball spell.
 I take out the sketch I made last time and writing instruments from my bag.

OK, shall we go?

“Going into the right passageway of the first crossroad leads to the room with the centipedes and the left one leads to the spider’s room. What should we do? Should we take a quick look just to make sure?”

“I’m good. I couldn’t sell the spider threads for much and it was uselessly hard to get as well. Therefore it’s fine already.”

 When I asked Crescent Moon let her shoulders slump and shook her head.
 Was the yarn which my seniors painstakingly took back that much less worth?
 A waste of energy for a thankless job, wait, Crescent Moon wasn’t the one who had to go through this hardship!
 Poor seniors, please sleep peacefully.

“Let’s advance deeper then. To the place where that trap was.”

 The two in front nodded to Kitora’s words.
 As no one objected to this we went straight to the passage paved with stone.
 On our way, we also went through the room with the slime in it.

“It was probably around here”

 As Pick said this she immediately starts to check the stone on the floor.
 As we expected, the trap door mechanism on the floor has returned to its former shape.
 It’s evident that someone is managing this labyrinth and restored this trap.

[Vol. 5] Chapter 5 - Zombie Drugs

"Hah?! Right hand? Won't allow it? I have no idea what you are talking about!" Kitora's eyes were directed towards Doji who stood in front of me. That beautiful girl’s look was just as cold as ice. Her…



“Hah?! Right hand? Won’t allow it? I have no idea what you are talking about!”

Kitora’s eyes were directed towards Doji who stood in front of me.
That beautiful girl’s look was just as cold as ice.
Her voice even affected the others, freezing.
Go for it, Doji, my right hand!

“Though I don’t know who you are, but I won’t allow any more rudeness towards Akatsuki-sama, that’s what I said”

“Rude, you say? Even though the one being rude is that man over there! He failed to contact me for all this time even though I waited for this long. Do you think such a thing is forgivable?”

Then Doji suddenly turned around.
He looked at my face as if he has a hard time talking to me about something.

“Ehm, Is this girl……the same as……Akatsuki-sama’s, ehm, that kind of … person?”

Did Doji mean Elsa by saying “That kind of person” and “The same”?
For your information, I, like you, am still a virgin!

“Doji, I’m not in … that kind of relationship with this person over there. Rather this girl is a Priestess of Darkness, right? There’s no way she would become that kind of person, I guess”

“Ah, so it was like that? I’m relieved.”

Crescent Moon’s back which was facing us trembled slightly.
That fellow, she’s laughing at mine and Doji’s exchanges.
Shall I make you realise now what happens if you make fun of the villain Carlo de Medici?

“Oh my, don’t say that. Even I am just a common girl”

Kitora pouts and complains.
You see, I don’t think a Priestess of Darkness is something one would call common.

“Kitora, I get that you’re angry. It’s my bad, therefore I came here to invite you. Will you come with us?”

“Of course I will come along. Wasn’t that clear already? And you over there!”

This time she pointed her finger towards Doji with a whack sound.

“Wh-what? What do you want with me?”

Doji’s voice somewhat shook.
I know, the angry voice of a beautiful girl is a scary thing.

“If you talk in the same manner as you did just now in the future I won’t overlook that!”

“I, I only follow Akatsuki-sama’s orders. I won’t allow this either.”

Eeeehm, Doji, I’m happy that you feel this way but I think it would be better not to defy her on this point.
It’s fine to be scared so you don’t have to act tough.

“If you speak to me in such a manner again I will turn you into my eternal slave!”

Aah, I knew it would turn out like this.
Doji, if you’re not careful you’ll be turned into an Undead.

“Akatsuki-sama, what does this girl mean by slave?”

Doji seemed concerned. He felt threatened even though he didn’t understand what she meant.

“Be careful, that girl is serious. Kitora, you as well. Don’t do anything weird. If you turn Doji into a zombie I’ll be troubled.”

“Zo, zombie?! I absolutely don’t want that!”

“Hmpf, then be careful with your manner of speaking. Let’s depart at once.”

Disregarding Doji who become teary eyed and fell back, Kitora immediately left the church.
Those heartless guys who turned to look towards the day after tomorrow to make sure they won’t get rolled up in this affair soon followed her in a hurry.

“Ehm, Kitora-san”

“Oh my, you are that magician. What was your name?”

“My name is Knopf. I wanted to ask you some things if that’s fine.”

As we were having a meal after we found a place to build a camp Knopf started to talk to Kitora.
For some reason, the strong-minded Kitora also had a soft spot for the cat girl, Knopf.

“That’s fine, what is it?”

“Is it possible to turn a living human being into a zombie?”

Hey, hey, what’s the cat-eared mad scientist interested in now?

“I can do it, of course. Though to make a Skeleton you have to kill them first and wait until they are reduced to bones or you have to shave off the meat.”

Kitora casually answered Knopf’s question.
Excuse me, could you please stop otherwise we’ll lose our appetite?

“What would you have to do specifically?”

“I use this”

As she said that Kitora took out a potion from one of the bags.
Just taking a glimpse at that muddy, dark, green medicine would make one understand that this stuff was of suspicious nature.

“That is?”

“Nekrokinine, or otherwise known as the “Zombie drug”. I’ll let the other party drink this.”

“Ah, I kind of heard about this. Will one become a zombie just by drinking this?”

“How’s that possible. This medicine will bring one into a state between life and death. Black magic is necessary to ultimately make one into a zombie.”

“I see, so black magic is necessary after all”

Why do you sound slightly disappointed, Knopf?
I mean why are you carrying around such a medicine as if it’s normal, Kitora?!
What kind of state is a state between life and death anyway?
This stuff is a tremendously powerful drug, be careful with that!

“Isn’t that enough already?! I, if you don’t stop talking I won’t be able to sleep!”

Doji couldn’t take it anymore and raised his voice.
No wonder, if one thinks of themselves as the experiment material.
His dialect got worse out of fear, poor guy.
Crescent Moon and Pick were eating indifferently at a remote place.
I should have eaten with them there as well.
Even though the meat is cooked deliciously I don’t seem to have any appetite.
Like this night fell.

However, since Zhao Yanyan had popped the bubble, Liu Yue had no need to pretend anymore. She looked towards me in complaint then said, “Am I really unable to compare up to Yu Ting. You can oppose the Situ family for her, but when it comes to me, you turned more hesitate and bullshitted without saying any truth!”

“I-I thought you don’t like me!” I don’t even know why I suddenly said something like that. Perhaps this was a thought that I did not dare to confirm the entire time, perhaps I was unable to grasp her real thought even though I felt that Liu Yue should have some feelings towards me.

“I!” Liu Yue said angrily. “Do you have to make me say that I love you before you get comfort? Is your machismo so intense! It’s just to satisfy your vanity, right! You feel very happy about girls reverse pursuing you, right!”

I suddenly turned speechless, I didn’t think that Liu Yue would roar out her love for me so unrestrainedly. I quickly pulled Liu Yue into my embrace and comforted, “No! I really didn’t think like that! You’re so excellent, the reason I never confessed to you is because I feel like I’m unworthy of you! You’ve also seen that I’m person that is very fickle in love, I have a lot of girls beside me, so I…”

“Yeah, a lot of girls, would I make the difference!” Liu Yue had already put down her self-respect, and spoke out the dissatisfaction in her heart towards her crush like a young lady that suffered wrongs.

“Of course not, I couldn’t be more happy that you like me!” I hugged Liu Yue tightly, and wiped away the tears on her face lightly, then said softly. “Your grandpa really dislikes me!”

“He… My grandpa is very purposeful. He really hates dandies like Situ Liang, but he still wants me to marry him! All it’s for is those so-called ancestral properties!” Liu Yue smiled.

“Hehe, it seems like your mission of a hundred million is going to be very hard to accomplish!” I said.

“Why?” Liu Yue asked.

“Because since you followed me, your shares are mine. Working in the car shop is equal to working for your hubby, there is no salary!” I said.

“Hmmph, I didn’t say that I’ll marry you yet!” Liu Yue snorted lightly. However, she didn’t’ care about this anymore, she believes that her grandpa will definitely be satisfied with her decision.

“Then we’ll enter the bridal chamber tonight~ When that happens, I have no need to be worried about you not marrying me!” I laughed.

“You’re terrible!” Before Liu Yue finished, I sealed her lips with mine…

Just when has Liu Yue experienced this. So she immediately went dumb. She didn’t’ cooperate either, and merely allowed me to do as I wish.

Gradually, Liu Yue also started moving. Although her actions were very jerky, she stills started reacting.

I reached out my hand to touch Liu Yue’s back. She was wearing an evening dress today, and her coat had already been taken off when she entered. Since the buckle for the evening dress was at the back, I undid it very easily.

The dress fell onto the floor lightly and revealed Liu Yue’s delicate figure. I found out in surprise that she only wore her underwear and bra within! I couldn’t help but shake my head, so Liu Yue is also someone that liked to stay pretty! She actually wore so little inside in such a cold temperature, it really is too much!

“Go to the bedroom, okay… I don’t want to here…” Liu Yue said quietly.

“Sure!” I raised my hand, picked Liu Yue up in a princess carry, then sprinted towards the bedroom upstairs.

When we got halfway upstairs, I suddenly heard the sound of door closing. I thought to myself, these chicks, they were actually peaking, just see how I deal with you tonight!

I placed Liu Yue onto the king-sized bed in the main bedroom and found that a white handkerchief was placed neatly onto the bedsheets. I smiled wryly, this must be the handiwork of Zhao Yanya nand co.!

“Are you ready?” I asked softly.

“Mhmm…” Liu Yue answered vaguely.

“Then I’ll start?”

“Mhmm… Just be lighter… It’s my first time…”

I couldn’t help but chuckle, although Liu Yue seemed very bright at times, she actually would say something so dumb at others. Of course I know that its her first time.

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.

When I pulled open the curtains, moonlight shone into the room, illuminating Liu Yue’s beautiful body, causing me to have an urge to go for a second round. However, I knew that Liu Yue was already very tired.

“Sleepy?” I caressed Liu Yue and asked softly.

“Nope,” Liu Yue said with a yawn. “So quick!”

“What’s so quick, are you saying that I finished too quickly just now and should have gone on for longer?” I asked with a smile.

“Of course not! What are you thinking of. You nearly did me to death, it hurt so much. I really don’t understand why you men enjoy doing this sort of thing!” Liu Yue snorted.

“But weren’t you really into it later?” I smiled naughtily.

“Wasn’t I just forcing myself to cooperate with you!” Liu Yue argued with a blush. “I’m saying that time passed by so quickly! We are finally together!”

“Yeah! You were testing me about the country of origin of those coffee beans. To be honest, I have no interest in that sort of thing at all. I only said that to you in order to pretend to be deep!” I said honestly.

“I could tell it ages ago. How could someone with low-levelled interests like you be able to taste the profundity of Blue Mountain!” Liu Yue rolled her eyes at me and said.

“Hehe, how about us trying again?” I really couldn’t resist the seduction of Liu Yue’s body wriggling beside me.

“Come if you want to kill me!” said Liu Yue.

“Oh yeah, did you plan this out earlier? You even prepared the white handkerchief?” Liu Yue looked at that white handkerchief that had turned red and said.

“I swear to heaven and earth. Just how was I supposed to know that you will attend the Situ family’s family dinner today!” I replied innocently.

“I just kidding. But to be honest, Zhao Yanyan is so nice. It’s all thanks to her that we can be together!” said Liu Yue.

“I admit that I have a special feeling towards Zhao Yanyan. I will tell you all this in the future, but my love for every single one of you is real. You are all my loved ones in my heart, I will be in life-ending pain regardless of which one of you I lose!” I said.

“What I’m worried about most is the Situ family. Taking Yu Ting away from Situ Liang isn’t much, because Yu Ting doesn’t have any benefit for the Situ family. However, I’m different. I’m scared of bringing trouble to you! Although us, the Liu family are not scared of them, but you…” Liu Yue said worriedly.

“Hehe, you finally know to be concerned about hubby now? Isn’t all these trouble because of you,” I patted Liu Yue’s a̲s̲s̲ and laughed.

“What, do you find me troublesome. Then I’ll just go and marry that Situ Liang!’ Liu Yue snorted.

“I’m just kidding, the f̲u̲c̲k̲ is he, Situ Liang!” I said in despise. “If he pisses me off, I’ll remove them, the Situ family, from the Six Renowned Families!”

“Hubby, don’t just act in the heat of the moment. The Situ family’s underworld forces is just a part of their family. Their family have a very powerful foundation in the business world too! If they really want to fight to the death, the Liu family’s economical power cannot be compared to theirs!” Liu Yue said a bit worriedly. After all, those are all properties that the Liu family’s ancestors fought to start, if they really ends up closing down, it really is too regrettable.

Hearing that, Liu Yue immediately blushed. However, what surprised me was that she actually did not deny it and showed a rare look of a little woman.

Actually, how could I not know Liu Yue’s thoughts in my mind, but I already took one woman away from Situ Liang, taking another one away… It seems a bit wrong, right? Wouldn’t the Situ family go insane?

However, then I thought, just who have I been scared of. F̲u̲c̲k̲ him! The f̲u̲c̲k̲ does Situ Liang count as!

Thus, I said, “Liu Yue, actually, the reason the Situ family doesn’t dare to do anything and instead just surrenders everywhere is because I am the owner behind the scenes for the current largest gang in Huaxia, the Three Rock Gang!”

“So that’s why, no wonder the Situ family would invite you for the dinner just now. It seems like they also know this, it’s just that neither of you made it clear!” Liu Yue said like she suddenly understood anything,

“Now you should tell me about you, right? What exactly is going on? Why did you become Situ Liang’s fiancé?” I asked. “Also, what Liu family was he talking about afterwards? Are you a child of the Renowned Families as well? Don’t tell me that you were bored with nothing to do when you got me to invest into your car shop. You don’t seem to lack that bit of money with your identity, right?”

“Of course not! But you can see it as a type of training for me! Actually, I have always been hiding it from you, my family is also one of Huaxia’ Six Renowned Families. It is the Liu family of Songjiang…”

Before Liu Yue finished, I immediately blurted out, “Liu Zhenhai!?”

“You know grandpa?” The moment Liu Yue said this, all of us had an extremely weird expression aside of Yu Ting.

“What is it?” Yu Ting asked weirdly.

“I nearly got killed by your grandpa back then!” I said with a shrug.

“Killed you? Ah! So you are the young man grandpa talked about!” Liu Yue also looked at me with a weird expression. “You seem to still have some things that you are hiding from me, right? The Situ family is different from other Renowned Families, all of their family members have a certain level of supernatural power…”

I understood that there was no way to hide it any more, since Liu Zhenhai must have told my non-human actions back then to Liu Yue, so I replied, “That’s right, I am also a manipulator of paranormal abilities. You can also call me an esper!”

“Hmmph! You clearly treated me as an outsider! If you didn’t mention it, you wouldn’t have said it! Yanyan, just look at him!” Liu Yue pulled on Zhao Yanyan’s hand and shook it.

I sweat! This Liu chick really is smarter than others, she knew that I adored Zhao Yanyan the most out of my women, and that I usually listened to her. I never would have thought that she would use this sort of roundabout way to help herself.

Seeing Zhao Yanyan’s caring expression, I would only submit!

“Okay, I admit I was wrong just now! Continue!” I quickly told her to continue, otherwise, my secrets would all be revealed! You have to know, I didn’t tell anyone about my alien technology base and East Asia Motion outside of my parents.

“The Liu family only has me in my generation, and as a woman, from grandpa’s point of view, I am unable to shoulder the burden of revitalizing our family. That’s why grandpa wanted to find a good husband for me, so that we can revitalize the glory of the Liu family. Grandpa has two types of people as his choices, the first is someone without any backgrounds and have the talent or ability that surpasses others, allowing the Liu family to truly walk towards glory, but it is very hard to find this sort of people…” Saying that, Liu Yue looked towards me, causing me to feel a bit guilty, and not dare to continue after her. Then, Liu Yue continued, “The second is children within the Six Renowned Families that are not entrusted with important tasks, so they could not be successors. This way, even if the ability of the person isn’t very outstanding, it will at least serve the purpose of not letting the Liu Family fall due to their family. An example would be Situ Liang. His older brother, Situ Kong, had already been secretly decided as the successor of the Situ family’s third generation, and if Situ Liang becomes the son-in-law of the Liu family, we would be able to use the Situ family’s resources to revitalize the Liu family!”

“Then isn’t your grandpa scared of bringing a wolf into the home, causing the Liu family to be swallowed by the Situ family?” Yu Ting asked in confusion.

“Hehe!” I laughed. “Liu Zhenhai’s move is truly amazing! Ting Ting, think about it, if you are the number one within the Liu family, and you made the decisions, would you still merge it all back with the Situ family and lower yourself to second place?”

“So that’s why!” Yu Ting nodded.

“Hehe, Liu Lei, you really are not normal! I only understood the logic behind it after thinking about it for a long time, I didn’t think that you would have point it out so easily! Grandpa also chose Situ Liang for this, and that’s why he wanted me to marry into the Situ family!” Liu Yue’s praise gave me a slight fever…

“But you there is no feelings between you and Situ Liang at all, how can your grandpa do this?” Zhao Yanyan asked.

I don’t know if this chick did it on purpose, but once she said it, I shouted “crap” in my heart! It seems like I’m going to be forced to care about this.

“Sometimes, family interests stand above everything! Isn’t it very pitiful?” Liu Yue said in self-mockery. “That’s why, grandpa and I made a deal that if I can use my own ability to earn a hundred million yuan, then it means that I have the ability to carry the burden of the family! At that moment, grandpa will not force me to marry Situ Liang. However, from the looks of it, the chances of this wish being fulfilled is slim. Although selling cars enough a lot of money, I only saved up thirty million or so!

“So that’s why! I was wondering why you got me to cooperate with you in opening a car shop!” I said after suddenly understanding everything. “Since it’s like that, I don’t want my share of interest any more, I’ll leave it for you to hand it in!”

“How can that be okay, that wouldn’t be something I got with my own ability, so I would feel bad! What’s more, I already promised grandpa to definitely not fake anything!” Liu Yue sighed.

“Then wouldn’t you have to marry that bad guy?” Yu Ting said a bit anxiously. “You’re so pretty, how can you marry that bad guy Situ Liang!”

“Hehe, isn’t there still another way?” Zhao Yanyan said with a wink. “Didn’t Liu Yue say it, he has to find a capable hubby. Ting Ting, what do you think about our hubby?”

Yu Ting had a more innocent mind. Hearing Zhao Yanyan say that, she immediately replied, “Oh yeah, Liu Yue, how about you also marrying hubby!”

Liu Yue and I immediately showed awkward expressions… We never would have thought that the intricate relationship between us was ripped apart so easily, causing both of us to feel embarrassed.

Zhao Yanyan pretended to yawn, “Ya! It’s already twelve, I’m so sleepy. Ting Ting, Weier-jiejie, let’s go up and sleep.

Ting Ting was still a bit confused, while she was pulled upstairs by Chen Weier, “Go quickly, a woman would get black circles around their eyes if they stay up too late. When that happens, be careful of hubby not spoiling you anymore!”

I know that Zhao Yanyan was deliberately creating a chance for Liu Yue and I, but sometimes things are like this, although Liu Yue and I have some feelings for one another, we stayed together like nothing happened. Sometimes, a woman that’s too smart would be unable to get a grasp on her own feelings.

Chapter 104 – Liu Yue's thoughts

Hearing that, Liu Yue immediately blushed. However, what surprised me was that she actually did not deny it and showed a rare look of a little woman. Actually, how could I not know Liu Yue’s thoughts in my…

Chapter 103 - Martial Competition

That’s why, I decided to just give them face. It’s just that Situ Liang was really too disrespectful, this person was trouble brewing when left alone, so I had to find a chance to get rid of him.…



That’s why, I decided to just give them face. It’s just that Situ Liang was really too disrespectful, this person was trouble brewing when left alone, so I had to find a chance to get rid of him.

Since the proper matters have been finished, Situ Dashan also started chitchatting. A lot of the stuff was related to the Six Renowned Families. Situ Dashan did not mind either, and completely treated me as one of them. This made me very satisfied, since it showed that he truly wanted peace with me.

“Oh yeah, Liu Yue, the Huaxia Martial Competition once every five years is about to begin, who is your Liu family sending?” Situ Dashan asked.

“I’m going,” Liu Yue disliked the Situ family, so she replied very plainly.

“Oh? Hehe, you have to be merciful when it comes around. I’m going to tell Situ Kong and Situ Liang to try. You might be put into the same group with Situ Liang, hehe!” Situ Dashan smiled.

“My grandpa also has huge hopes for me. So, Grandpa Situ, sorry!” Liu Yue replied plainly.

The atmosphere on the dinner table immediately turned cold. The Six Renowned Families all kept the tradition of ancient times, due to the long history of the Renowned Families. After a woman marries over, she was someone of that family, and no longer had any relationship with her own, so she naturally had to help the people in her husband’s family. This was also the minimal three obedience and four virtues that a woman should have. Yet, Liu Yue actually said something so blasphemous in public as Situ Liang’s fiancé!

Since I was present, Situ Dashan didn’t find it right to get mad, so he only said wryly, “Hehe, young people, that’s natural, natural!” Then he quickly changed the topic. “Liu Yue, you and Liang Liang aren’t young anymore, when are you going to have your wedding so that us of the older generation will stop worrying!”

“Grandpa Situ, I didn’t agree to this wedding yet! It’s just grandpa taking charge by himself!” Liu Yue said with a frown.

Seeing the situation take a turn for the worse since if they continued like this, it would definitely turn into a situation that they break up in discord. I will naturally make clear about Liu Yue’s situation, but not on the dinner table. There are some things that might be very easy to deal with behind the scenes, but if it was put onto the table, a lot of people will definitely refuse to give in for a little bit of face.

“Mr. Situ, what exactly is that Huaxia Martial Competition?” I had an interest in this since I have never heard of this competition before! It was also convenient in softening the atmosphere on the dinner table.

“Oh, that!” Situ Dashan also realized that I was still there, so he ignored Liu Yue’s matter. He replied, “It’s like this, our Huaxia would hold a martial competition every single time, this was a rule that existed in ancient times, but it normally is not open. There are very few outsiders outside of the children from our Six Renowned Families, so it gradually became a competition for the children of the Six Renowned Families to compete over time!”

“I see, I was wondering why I’ve never heard of it! Then what benefits can the person that becomes the champion get?” I nodded and asked.

“The first three place can go and work in a special organization in Huaxia, and can get a large sum of prize money from the Martial Foundation!” said Situ Dashan.

I wasn’t interested in either, but this competition seemed really fun, so I should go and have a look. Thus, I said, “Then can I apply to participate?”

“Of course, anyone has the right to participate. This competition is organized by that special organization, so it also ensures the fairness of the competition results,” said Situ Dashan.

I took a look. It was about time, so I said, “Then we’ll leave it at this today, Mr. Situ. I still need to prepare a bit, I have to return to my hometown tomorrow!”

“Oh, hehe, look at me. I’m getting old, so my sense of time is also getting worse, it’s already ten something!” Situ Dashan smiled apologetically. “Situ Bo, Situ Kong, go and send Mr. Liu off!”

At this moment, Liu Yue also stood up and said, “Then Grandpa Situ, I’ll be leaving as well!” Then, she looked towards me. I know she had something she wanted to say to me, and I also had a lot I wanted to ask her, so I nodded slightly in reply.

When we arrived at the car park, Liu Yue looked towards me, but didn’t say anything. I also said with a smile, “Follow my car!”

After that, my Bentley and Liu Yue’s Land Rover left the Situ family’s car park one behind another.

Just after we got onto the highway, Liu Yue’s phone call came through, “Liu Lei, what’s going on? Why did you come?”

“Hehe, we’ll talk about it in detail later. Follow me to my mansion!” I replied. “Drive properly, don’t get distracted!”

“Oh!” Liu Yue answered, then hung up and followed behind me at a moderate pace. Since my car was extra-long, it was very hard to squeeze forward even though it was night time, since Yanjing city’s roads were still not very smooth. That’s why, Liu Yue’s Land Rover was unable to

We drove on the road for an hour before finally returning to my mansion. Since the guard at the mansion recognizes my original Land Rover, and because it entered with me, they didn’t stop it to ask.

I found Liu Yue’s impatient expression a bit hilarious. Just when has this chick been so anxious! In my memories, Liu Yue has always been very calm and collected.

Zhao Yanyan and Chen Weier were already familiar, and Zhao Yanyan had already put her business with Liu Yue behind her.

Liu Yue didn’t say anything in the living room, she merely looked at me silently. I had thought that Liu Yue would have a lot of questions to ask me, but instead, she became silent when she arrived at my home.

“Alright, I’ll be honest, I have some personal grudge with Situ Liang!” Then I pointed towards Yu Ting. “Because of her.”

I don’t know why, but Liu Yue blushed and rolled her eyes at me. “Pervert!”

“How am I a pervert? This sort of thing have both parties willing. She didn’t like Situ Liang from the start. Am I right, Xiao Ting Ting?” I pulled Yu Ting over so that she was sitting in my embrace.

Yu Ting snorted lightly, then obediently sat in my arms.

“I’m not talking about this. I’m asking why the Situ family is so courteous towards you?” Liu Yue glared at me and said.

“Ugh… I think he’s scared of me?” I answered while acting dumb. After all, Liu Yue wasn’t someone by my side, so I didn’t plan to reveal too much.

“He’s scared of you? Why is he scared of you?” Liu Yue asked.

“How do I know!” I shrugged.

“Liar! Yanyan, Liu Lei’s bullying me!” Liu Yue said to Zhao Yanyan while putting on a very troubled expression.

Zhao Yanyan has always been soft. So, when she saw Liu Yue’s expression, she sighed. Just now, Yu Ting had already told her that Liu Yue is Situ Liang’s fiancé. A woman’s sensitivity made her understand Liu Yue’s thoughts. Thus, she said slowly, “Hubby, do you still need Liu Yue-meimei to make it clear! Actually, she likes you in her heart, can’t you tell? She’s just jealous of our Yu Ting!”
