As for Dai s.h.i.+yu…
Although she was the most captivating woman he had ever laid eyes upon in terms of both appearance and temperament, Ye Chen had no romantic interest in her. He only had eyes for Su Yuhan.
This was also the reason why he kept a certain distance from all and any women except Su Yuhan. As he was unable to provide them anything, why would he give them the wrong idea?
He walked along the pedestrian streets of Guro-gu and finally ended up at a lake on the outskirts of the city. He looked at the lake, his hands behind his back. Without turning his head, he broke the silence, “You’ve been following me for awhile now. Come out!”
A figure suddenly emerged from the bamboo forest a hundred steps away. Moments later, the figure appeared a mere ten steps or less away from Ye Chen, moving like a ghost in the wind.
It was an old man in a Chinese tunic suit. He was about fifty to sixty years old and his left thumb was missing. His face was full of surprise. “You actually noticed this old man following you?”
He made not to be extremely careful along the way and had completely concealed his aura. He did not expect to be discovered by Ye Chen.
Ye Chen shook his head slightly. “If I remember correctly, you’re the person who sat in the same car as Dai s.h.i.+yu, right?”
“You’re just full of endless surprises.”
The old man in the Tang suit chuckled and said stoically, “You can call me Old Wu, young man. I’ll give you a piece of advice. Stay away from that girl s.h.i.+yu. It’s best if you don’t meet her in person ever again.”
“I know what’s on your mind. You noticed that s.h.i.+yu’s family background was extraordinarily powerful, so you deliberately warmed up to s.h.i.+yu in order to ascend to the Heavens in one simple step!”
His eyes turned colder than the night air. “However, I have to warn you that your idea is very dangerous. In this world, there are some people and heights that you can never reach!”
“I can’t reach?” Ye Chen couldn’t help but laugh.
Whether it was in the Cultivation World, the Immortal world, or Earth, Mad Southern Ye had never heard of a woman he couldn’t reach. As long as he showed the slightest bit of willingness, many women would be more than open to fall in love with him.
“That’s right!”
Old Wu thought that he did not believe his words. He snorted coldly and said, “Do you know who sent the convoy to welcome s.h.i.+yu earlier?”
“That’s the Kim family, the head of the four great families of Korea. The Kim family has been in power for hundreds of years and has always maintained its pridel. Now, they own nearly half of Korea’s resources, one-third of the members in parliament are related to the Kim family!”
“The Kim family has hundreds of billions in their pockets, the Kim family…”
Seeing that he was going on and on ostentatiously, Ye Chen interrupted him, “What does this have to do with me?”
“I wanted to let you know that even a behemoth as powerful as the Kim family has to be polite to the Dai family!”
Old Wu sneered before he spoke, emphasizing on every word, “If the Kim family has to show such respect to the Dai family, what right do you, as an ordinary person, have to possess improper thoughts about s.h.i.+yu? I came here today to let you know of the unattainable distance between you and my young Miss, so that you know to eliminate those dangerous thoughts as soon as possible! ”
“That is just your wishful thinking!”
Ye Chen said calmly, “First, Dai s.h.i.+yu and I are just ordinary friends. We are barely even friends. No matter how gorgeous she is, no matter how enthralling her background is, she is nothing in my eyes.”
“Secondly, whatever you just said, whether it is the background of the Dai family or the strength of the Kim family, in my opinion, it is just a matter of a Single Sword Strike!”
“A Single Sword Strike?”
Old Wu could not help but sneer. “Young man, ignorance is bliss. But sometimes, when ignorance is used as a source of pride, it may bring you fatal misfortune.”
“I’ll give you one last chance. As long as you swear to never see s.h.i.+yu again, I’ll let you off the hook!”
He stared at Ye Chen, subconsciously emanating a hint of martial aura, trying to intimidate Ye Chen.
However, Ye Chen put his hands behind his back and smiled. “I, Ye Chen, have always done things according to my will. Why should I be controlled by anyone?”
“So, you are obstinate on not letting s.h.i.+yu go?”
Elder Wu flew into a rage. “Then don’t blame ME FOR BEING IMPOLITE!”
He was infuriated. He had already sugar-coated his words, yet this kid in front of him was still as stubborn as mule. Instead, he remained full of confidence.
As his voice faltered, he quickly rushed toward Ye Chen. He simultaneously grabbed Ye Chen’s head with one hand. However, he didn’t use much strength. He just wanted to teach him a little lesson.
“GET LOST!”
A fierce shout ripped through the air, causing a shocking aura to be erupted from Ye Chen’s body. It was an aura that sent Old Wu flying on the spot.
Pu!
Elder Wu landed heavily onto the ground, feeling the blood and Qi in his body churn. He stared at Ye Chen in shock, “You… you…”
He didn’t expect that the young man from before, who was seemingly unextraordinary, would suddenly produce such an aura.
A grandmaster in martial arts!
The old master had a misjudgement!
This kid was actually a grandmaster of martial arts!
“On account of Dai s.h.i.+yu and the fact that you did not have any killing intent toward me, I’ll spare your life. However, if there is a next time, I will definitely not spare you!”
Ye Chen didn’t even spare a glance at him as he turned around and left.
…
Around the same time, at Seoul Hotel.
Dai Tinglou put down the phone in his hand, his eyes flickering non-stop. “There’s an expert from China who attacked the Park family. It looks like the Park family has surrendered!”
“To be able to defeat the Park family, this person is certainly a powerhouse. Who exactly is this person?” He paced back to the window and muttered to himself while gazing outside, his hands behind his back.
Suddenly, the door of the room was forcefully kicked open. Then, Dai s.h.i.+yu walked in and said angrily, “Dad, I want to go out and play!”
“Play?”
Dai Tinglou’s face darkened, his voice taking a scolding tone. “Is the only thing you know how to do everyday play? Didn’t I tell you to interact with Kim Wenjie more often? Where is he?”
Dai s.h.i.+yu stomped her feet and said, “Dad, just let me go. I really don’t like him. Every time he smiles at me, I think it’s fake. His faceful of hyaluronic acid makes me sick!”
“Even if you don’t want to, you still have to interact with him. This is not up to your discretion. The Dai family has decided to form an alliance with the Kim family. Your marriage with Kim Wenjie represents the good faith of both parties!”
“Dad, why are you like this? Are you using my happiness as a bargaining chip? Did you adopt me from somewhere else?”
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
Dai Tinglou was so enraged that his face turned ashen. “I know exactly what you’re thinking, I’m not a fool. I’m warning you, stay away from that Ye kid in the future. If I find you coming into contact with him again, don’t blame me for hurting him!”
“You bully, don’t bully me like that!”
Dai s.h.i.+yu ran out with tears in her eyes, almost b.u.mping into Old Wu who had just entered.
“What did that kid say?” With a sullen face, Dai Tinglou waved his hand, and the door of the room automatically closed.
Old Wu couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Then, he walked up to him and whispered a few words into his ear.
“What?”
Dai Tinglou could not hide the shock on his face. “Are you certain that your intuition is accurate? Is that kid really a martial arts grandmaster?”
“This old servant is not very sure. However, even if the other party is not a martial arts grandmaster, I believe that it’s not long before he becomes a martial arts grandmaster!”
Old Wu shook his head slightly and said.
“No wonder this kid had the gall to come into contact with s.h.i.+yu!”
Dai Tinglou’s looked torn. Finally, he snorted coldly. “So what if you are a martial arts grandmaster? A mere martial arts grandmaster is still not worthy of my attention!”
As the strongest person in Shanghai, he could look down on any powerhouse who was less than a martial venerable!
