"Lady Lan, how much energy of heaven and earth can you use now?" Xiao Tian inquired.

Lan Ruoxi always refused to tell him how strong she was. That was why Xiao Tian asked this question.

After hearing her explanation about martial arts points, he could guess how strong she was if she answered his question.

"Secret!" like usual, Lan Ruoxi refused to answer his question and winked her left eye.

Of course, she knew what Xiao Tian had in mind. That was why she answered like that.

The corner of Xiao Tian's lips twitched.

'She refused to answer again!'

This was the seventh time she refused to tell him how strong she was.

Xiao Tian had no idea as to why Lan Ruoxi wanted to hide her level so badly like that. She was his future lover, so he would not do something bad to her.

After talking for several minutes, Xiao Tian traveled to the Blue Ice Lotus gang headquarters.

------

Blue Ice Lotus Gang Headquarters, Front Yard.

Currently, Xiao Tian and his underlings were in the front yard.

After arriving at the Blue Ice Lotus gang headquarters, he ordered all of his underlings to gather in the front yard.

He did this because he wanted to know the progress of their martial arts. He even ordered his underlings to spar with each other earlier.

'The progress is not bad!'

Xiao Tian nodded his head after hearing Mu Huo's words.

Previously, forty of his underlings were at the high-level apprentice stage. Fifty of them were at the low-level master stage, and twenty of them were at the mid-level master stage.

Only ten people were at the high-level master stage before, but now it was different. All of his underlings were at the master stage now.

Forty of them were at the low-level master stage now. Fifty of them were at the mid-level master stage, and thirty of them were at the high-level master stage.

This was the reason why Xiao Tian was pleased.

'They didn't let me down.'

He spent a lot of money to make them stronger, so he would be disappointed if they all failed to raise their level.

Xiao Tian then looked at Mu Huo and inquired, "What about you, Mu Huo?"

"I'm still at the high-level master stage, boss." Mu Huo gave an honest answer. "But I only need to increase my speed to break through to the grandmaster stage. You can say that I am almost invincible at the master stage."

[A/N= I changed Mu Huo's age. Now he is 29 years old, almost thirty. This is because I couldn't get him to break through to the grandmaster stage under the age of thirty. This would break Shi Fei's record and shake the whole of China. Only MC is allowed to break her record. I apologize for this note because most of you did not read the author's note.]

"I will increase your salary once you break through to the grandmaster stage." Xiao Tian stated.

Mu Huo's value would increase if he could break through to the grandmaster stage. That was why Xiao Tian said something like this.

"I will try my best, boss." Mu Huo was pleased after hearing Xiao Tian's words. "What about you, boss? Have you broken through to the high-level master stage?"

Xiao Tian smiled before answering, "Maybe I'm stronger than you now."

Previously, he was weaker than Mu Huo, but there was a high possibility that he could defeat Mu Huo now.

They were at the same level, and he could use the energy of heaven and earth, so the result might be different now.

Even though Xiao Tian did not answer his question directly, Mu Huo knew the meaning of Xiao Tian's words. "Congratulations, boss."

"Eh, leader, are you a martial artist at the high-level master stage now?" one of the Blue Ice Lotus gang members uttered.

"Yes." Xiao Tian gave an honest answer. "That's why I want you all to break through to the high-level master stage. At that time, we will rule Shanghai together."

"Whoa! Rule Shanghai?! I love that idea!"

"I suddenly want to beat the other gangs and all the martial arts schools now so that we can rule Shanghai immediately."

"I can't wait to see the time when we rule Shanghai together!"

One by one, Xiao Tian's underlings shouted happily after hearing his words.

Previously, they were the weakest gang, but they were the third strongest gang in Shanghai now.

All of this was because of one person.

Xiao Tian!

Yes. Since Xiao Tian became their leader, the Blue Ice Lotus gang changed completely.

"In the past, the founder managed to make our gang the strongest gang in Shanghai." Xiao Tian spoke and paused for a second before continuing, "In the future, I will make our gang the strongest gang in Shanghai as well."

Xiao Tian corrected his words. "No. We will beat the founder's record. In the future, we will become the strongest gang in the whole of China."

"Strongest gang in China."

"Strongest gang in China."

"Strongest gang in China."

"Strongest gang in China."

"Strongest gang in China."

Xiao Tian's underlings shouted, to the point their voices frightened the birds around them.

"Achoo." Shi Fei, who was watching a movie in the living room, sneezed. "Who is talking about me?"

------

Star Restaurant, Ye Xueyin's Office.

Xiao Tian, Ye Xueyin and Ye Qingyu were currently sitting on the couch.

After spending time with his underlings, Xiao Tian went to Star Restaurant to discuss something with his mother and aunt.

"Mother, how is your coffee shop?" Xiao Tian asked curiously.

It had been a long time since he had last heard of her coffee shop. He hadn't even been to her coffee shop since last year.

"It's doing good." Ye Xueyin gave an honest answer. "Why are you suddenly asking this question?"

Ye Xueyin was startled when Xiao Tian suddenly dragged her to Ye Qingyu's office. But what surprised her most was that he was suddenly curious about her coffee shop.

It had been a year since he asked this question. Previously, she thought he wanted to lovey-dovey with her and her younger sister, but she was wrong.

"Mother, I want to create Star Group.. How about we add your Star Coffee to my Star Group?" Xiao Tian inquired.
