17: Chapter 17 Old Master Liu

[ The next day. ]

[ Several black sedans drove up in front of your rental apartment. ]

[ This spectacle caused the surrounding neighbors to poke their heads out to watch; no one expected that a rental apartment in this dilapidated old residential complex could attract so many luxury cars and important figures. ]

[ As a model youth of the new era. ]

[ To be honest, it is only eleven o'clock in the morning. ]

[ It is so early that you haven't even gotten up yet! ]

[ Helplessly, you are awakened by the sound of knocking on the door and have no choice but to open it. ]

[ Standing at the door is Brother Long. ]

[ "Brother Long?" you say, looking at him in confusion. ]

[ Brother Long's attitude is fawning, his face full of obsequiousness. ]

[ "Great Master Lin, you are joking. You can just call me Little Lizi or Little Hu," Li Hu says to you, lowering his head. ]

[ You look at this burly man who is old enough to be your father: "Then, Hu, why are you here?" ]

[ "It is like this, Great Master Lin. Mr. Shen has specially arranged a dinner banquet at the top-tier Cloud Top Pavilion in Fei City today. He has booked the entire top floor just to invite you, to apologize to you. Regarding yesterday's events, we were blind and offended you. Mr. Shen has been feeling guilty about it," Li Hu says, looking at you. ]

[ You lift your eyelids and only say one word: "Fine." ]

[ Hearing this, Li Hu finally exhales, feeling relieved. ]

[ He takes out a black card. ]

[ "Great Master Lin, this is the lifetime Supreme black card for Cloud Top Pavilion. It is also a universal card for high-end hotels, clubs, and shopping malls throughout Fei City. There is no spending limit. No matter what you buy or where you go to spend, you don't have to pay a single cent; just have it charged to Mr. Shen's account." ]

[ Perhaps fearing that you might find it troublesome, he quickly adds: "At the banquet tonight, Mr. Shen will have all the property transfer contracts ready for you. Please take this card first; if you want to buy something or seek entertainment in your daily life, just use it. It is all a small token of our apology to you. You must accept it." ]

[ "You have a heart." You nod and accept the card. ]

[ Seeing you accept the card, Li Hu finally relaxes: "Then we won't disturb Mr. Lin's rest." ]

[ The roar of the cars fades into the distance, and you shake your head while playing with the black card in your hand. ]

[ A few days ago, you were just a college student shaking milk tea for a few thousand yuan. Who would have thought that now you are Great Master Lin, whom the underground boss of Fei City fears. ]

[ You stretch and go back to sleep. ]

[ Meanwhile, at the Shen Family in Fei City. ]

[ "Dad, what I said is absolutely true!" Shen Wanfu says to the old man in front of him, his attitude very respectful. ]

[ Sitting in the main seat is the head of the Shen Family, Shen Tianjun, his face cold and stern, his brows carrying the majesty of someone who has held power for years. ]

[ At this moment, his brows are tightly locked: "You are saying that he is young, at least a Dark Realm powerhouse, and he slapped that kid Zhou Qingming into unconsciousness with one palm?" ]

[ Shen Wanfu quickly nods: "Absolutely! I saw it clearly; he didn't use any ruthless moves the whole time, just a casual slap." ]

[ Shen Tianjun taps on his chair without speaking. ]

[ The more one understands Martial Artists, the more one knows how terrifying they are. Once someone reaches the Dark Realm, ordinary bodyguards cannot even get close. If a Dark Realm Martial Artist wants to kill a Mortal, only another Dark Realm Martial Artist can protect them. ]

[ Unless someone mobilizes the state machinery of the military. ]

[ "Then what about the Iron Hand Sect? Zhou Qingming is the head Disciple of the Iron Hand Sect. Although the Iron Hand Sect has always been on good terms with our Shen Family, he was beaten like that this time!" Shen Wanfu swallows his saliva: "If Great Elder Liu gets angry and takes it out on our Shen Family..." ]

[ Shen Tianjun waves his hand: "Unlikely. This is a society ruled by law. Even if he is a Dark Realm Martial Artist, he wouldn't dare to act recklessly at the risk of being wanted by the Dragon Group. However, no matter what happens this time, our Shen Family will have to bleed a little." ]

[ Shen Tianjun taps his chair and suddenly laughs out loud: "Little Fu!" ]

[ "Yes, Dad!" Shen Tianjun says while laughing: "Perhaps this time is an opportunity for our Shen Family to rise." ]

[ "Besides, didn't you say that the one who beat Great Elder Liu's Disciple is Great Master Lin!" ]

[ "Dad... do you mean..." Shen Wanfu swallows his saliva, but soon his eyes brighten. ]

[ Indeed, this will be an opportunity for the Shen Family to rise. ]

[ "Shen Tianjun, come out here." A voice full of vigor rings out from outside the Shen Family compound. ]

[ "It looks like Great Elder Liu has arrived," Shen Wanfu says. ]

[ "What is meant to come will come." Shen Tianjun tidies his clothes and says calmly: "Let's go, let's go out and take a look." ]

[ As soon as the two go out, they see a sturdy old man standing at the door. This person is Zhou Qingming's Master, Great Elder Liu Jinsong. ]

[ Around him lie a dozen or so bodyguards in black, all elite guards raised by the Shen Family at great expense. At this moment, each of them is clutching their chests and arms, wailing and rolling on the ground; not one of them can get up. ]

[ Seeing his subordinates beaten to the ground like this, Shen Tianjun knows that the other party is looking for a punching bag to vent his anger. ]

[ He is not angry, but instead piles his face with smiles: "Brother Liu, I hope you have been well." ]

[ "Cut the act with me." Great Elder Liu Jinsong waves his hand and says: "Hurry up and tell me where the culprit who beat my Disciple like that is!" ]

[ "This..." Shen Tianjun does not speak but looks at Shen Wanfu: "Little Fu has already invited Great Master Lin to a banquet tonight. As for where Great Master Lin specifically is now, that is not something we Mortals can know." ]

[ "Great Master Lin?" Great Elder Liu Jinsong sneers: "A guy in the Dark Realm is worthy of being called a Great Master!" ]

[ Shen Wanfu does not speak. He roughly knows that in the martial arts world, Transcendent is called a Transcendent Great Master, but usually when I call you Great Master Liu Jinsong, didn't you also answer quite happily? ]

[ Seeing this, Great Elder Liu Jinsong's fingertips flash with a trace of golden light, and then he suddenly points at the bluestone pillar beside him. ]

[ With a muffled "pfft" sound, ]

[ a round, deep hole is instantly poked into the hard bluestone slab, its edges as smooth as if cut. ]

[ Shen Tianjun swallows his saliva, looks at the other party's masterpiece, and then says. ]

[ "Brother Liu... have you reached a Breakthrough to Transcendent?" ]

[ Great Elder Liu Jinsong looks proud: "Just a lucky Breakthrough in my later years." ]

[ In the evening, you call Li Hu. ]

[ Li Hu drives a black sports car to the bottom of your rental building. ]

[ Under the surprised gazes of the crowd, you are respectfully invited by Li Hu into the supercar. ]

[ The car slowly stops in front of Cloud Top Pavilion. ]

[ The entire building is brightly lit, its exterior walls shimmering with flowing light. As the top-tier club in Fei City, the entrance is usually filled with luxury cars, but today it has been cleared completely, leaving only the exclusive parking spaces. ]

[ Looking at this building, you can't help but curse: "Vile capitalists." ]

[ As soon as you get out of the car, Shen Wanfu greets you, looking at you respectfully: "Great Master Lin, you are here!" ]

[ "What is the matter?" You see the worry on Shen Wanfu's face and ask. ]

[ "It is like this..." ]

[ Shen Wanfu explains to you about the matter regarding Great Elder Liu. ]

[ You do not say much, but walk straight into Cloud Top Pavilion. ]
