The silhouette of the fleeing scorpion was still dashing in the distance. She didn't use Ninjutsu to escape into the void again because Ye Chen seemed able to shatter illusions, and decrypt her Ninjutsu. The scorpion only wanted to escape. As long as she could escape this time, she would train even harder and then come back to kill Ye Chen.

However, Ye Chen didn't seem willing to give her a chance for a comeback. The scorpion felt an unprecedented sense of mortal danger. She knew Ye Chen was about to strike as she fled.

"Hum!"

The void trembled, the air fricating into a sharp sound. With a flick of his hand, Ye Chen threw a coin with a supremely mysterious technique. It struck directly at the frenziedly escaping scorpion.

"Bang bang bang!"

Seeing a streak of silver light coming towards her, the scorpion threw a series of Plum Blossom Darts from her hand to intercept the coin.

"Ah!"

The scorpion screamed bitterly as a bloody wound was slashed across her chest, blood spurting gruesomely. However, she did not die!

Escape, nothing but escape!

The severely wounded scorpion ignored the terrifying wound on her body. Compared to her life, such flesh wounds were nothing.

Ye Chen stood there, quietly watching the scorpion flee. He did not make another move until her figure had completely vanished, after which he took a deep breath.

Ye Chen could have easily killed the scorpion with one strike. However, the instant the hidden weapon left his hand, Ye Chen felt an inexplicable tremor. That strange feeling filled Ye Chen with immense fear, as though if he killed the scorpion, it would provoke a supremely terrifying existence to annihilate him!

As a Grandmaster, Ye Chen could sense the unknown threat lurking. The moment he harbored the thought of making a killing move on the scorpion, he immediately sensed that looming threat. So, in the last moment, he held back some of his strength and did not go all out.

"This time I let a scorpion return to her nest. Next time, who knows if it will turn into a tiger attacking me!" Ye Chen mused to himself, feeling somewhat unwilling.

Despite his reluctance, Ye Chen dared not kill the scorpion, for that trembling sensation left him utterly terrified — behind that woman probably stood a Land God!

If he killed the scorpion and angered the Land God behind her, no matter where Ye Chen fled, even to the ends of the earth, he would still be annihilated.

"Ye Chen!"

Just then, Zhang Xinlan arrived like the wind. Whenever Ye Chen encountered anything, this silly woman always rushed to show her concern immediately.

Ye Chen looked up to see that the gateway was now crowded with people. He and the scorpion had fought fiercely, smashing bricks and cars, causing quite a commotion, which must have alarmed these people.

"My good wife, I'm fine." Ye Chen smiled.

"It's best if you're fine!" Zhang Xinlan breathed a sigh of relief. This guy always made her heart skip a beat.

However, seeing Ye Chen's slightly disheveled clothes, Zhang Xinlan naturally reached out her hands to tidy them for him. Ye Chen felt that warmth and happiness and instantly smiled brightly.

Ye Chen, exceptionally handsome with an air of transcendence, added to his charm. Zhang Xinlan, ravishingly attractive and calamitously beautiful, was of a stunning beauty that could topple cities. Together, they seemed like a perfectly matched pair ordained by heaven!

"Brother, if I stand next to my brother-in-law now, wouldn't I seem more of a match than his girlfriend?" Yang Ling asked her brother as she looked at the couple in the distance.

"Perhaps!" Yang Fan nodded. His sister Yang Ling had an excellent demeanor, a woman of ethereal beauty, indeed matching the transcendent aura of Ye Chen. "However, if you want to seduce your brother-in-law, you'll first have to get beaten into a flat face by Su Binglan!"

Hearing the three words 'Su Binglan', the scheming Yang Ling instantly shivered with a chill.

"A true dragon is so rare in this world. Just when one appears who can barely match me, he's already taken by Su Binglan!" Yang Ling's gorgeously miserable face showed a trace of dejection. "It seems that a fairy-like person like me is destined to remain alone forever!"

"Can't you just stop talking?" Yang Fan said dully.

Yang Ling was a famous beauty in the capital, appearing ethereal and celestial, as if a heavenly fairy had descended to earth. However, whenever she spoke, the idiotic words that came out instantly overshadowed her demeanor, turning her into a neurotic young girl.

"Alright, since brother has spoken, I'll just shut up." Yang Ling exhaled a sigh of frustration. "If I don't speak, the world will be deprived of a heavenly voice!"

Yang Fan was speechless, completely unable to bear his sister's narcissism.

"What happened? I just felt the ground shake, and those cars exploded!" Inside the banquet hall, more people rushed over as the commotion caused by Ye Chen and the scorpion's confrontation grew too loud.

"That beauty looks like Liu Shihua's agent, but who's that man next to her? He looks so familiar!" someone speculated, talking to themselves as they observed the distant pair.

"Are you stupid? You don't even recognize that guy? He just fiercely trimmed down Yang Fan!" someone reminded.

"You're the stupid one, didn't you see Yang Fan right there? And you're talking so loud!" another person interjected.

Yang Fan's expression darkened; this time, he truly got hit even though he was lying down.

"With such a display, could it be that this godlike figure caused it?" Many people cast their gazes toward Ye Chen, filled with awe.

"Definitely yes! Didn't you see just now there was a devil hidden in the void, this godlike figure had it darting about in the sky, using a car like a brick, smashing that devil hidden in the night right into the air!" someone who witnessed the spectacle spread the word to the others around.

"There are no gods or demons in this world, this godlike figure must not be entirely human!" someone's eyes twinkled with sharpness.

In the banquet of heavenly kings, there were all elites from high society who, being broad-minded, knew that there were beings with divine skills hidden in the world.

In someone's guess, Ye Chen was equated with those of divine skills.

Tong Xingtong stood proudly among the crowd, like a proud peacock, her head raised looking at Ye Chen behaving ambiguously with Zhang Xinlan.

"Ye Chen, I wonder if it's your innate charm that's irresistible, attracting so many stunning beauties around you!" Tong Xingtong sighed inwardly. "Poor my sister Yanran, her soul is now attached to you, she can't stop thinking about you. I wonder if you can give her a proper explanation in the end!"

Tong Xingtong was not surprised by Ye Chen's combat performance, because she had already investigated his background and knew that he was the youngest heavenly king in the army, a powerful existence who was prominent across all four military zones.

Such a supreme combatant, regardless of what grand gestures he made, Tong Xingtong would not be surprised, because he was supposed to perform like this.

"However, I am here to discuss a partnership with the pharmaceutical company, even if you look down on me, I am one hundred percent confident that I can successfully secure this project!" Tong Xingtong had indeed come to discuss pharmaceutical company cooperation with Ye Chen.

Before Ye Chen left, the pills he had behind truly had miraculous effects and, upon testing, those effects were even more outlandish than Ye Chen had described, which greatly shocked Chu Yanran and Tong Xingtong.

Especially Chu Yanran, because after she took the Revitalizing Pill that Ye Chen had concocted for her, she actually regained her complete health.

This realization of the rarity of these pills and the huge business potential hidden within made Tong Xingtong travel thousands of miles to Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan in search of Ye Chen to discuss cooperation.

However, Chu Yanran and others had previously snubbed Ye Chen, yet Tong Xingtong was still so confident about this cooperation, leading people to really not know what kind of trump card she held that could convince Ye Chen to agree to the partnership.

"You once flirted with me before, even saying you fell in love with me at first sight, I wonder if it was true or false." Tong Xingtong suddenly remembered Ye Chen's repeated flirting with her, her eyes glimmering as she looked at him. "But now, I can surely say, you are definitely a bad guy!"

"Ye Chen, who was that woman just now, why did she disappear like a ghost?" Zhang Xinlan asked; she had arrived early and seen the ninja's magical ability to hide in the void.

"Ninja!" Ye Chen said.

"What, do such people really exist in this world!" Zhang Xinlan exclaimed.

The legend of ninjas had deeply embedded itself into people's hearts; these individuals could hide their forms, making you unable to see them, and what's more terrifying is that if such a person committed evil, it would be a tremendous calamity.

However, Zhang Xinlan was also slightly doubtful, because Ye Chen himself was a peculiar figure who could hurl cars like bricks, making it seem like nothing was impossible in this world since she met Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen, they are looking at you strangely!" Zhang Xinlan remarked while clinging to Ye Chen's arm, noticing the weird looks cast toward them.

Those odd glances contained too many emotions: jealousy, fervor, awe, respect, a gaze that encompassed everything.

"That is how mortals behold a god!" Ye Chen sighed, feeling the chill of standing on a high peak.

Zhang Xinlan, hearing Ye Chen's self-absorbed words, immediately showed a smile. The guy was originally funny, and now he'd learned to show off; she felt somewhat helpless to cure his mannerisms.

"Brother-in-law, even though you just rejected me, I still want to take you as my master!"

Yang Fan stood among the crowd, emitting an indomitable sharpness as he strode forward, yet facing Ye Chen, he seemed like a hungry wolf turned into a lamb.

"Your talent is too poor; you are not qualified to be my disciple!" Ye Chen shook his head, his expression neither sad nor happy, almost as if he were in a saintly state.

Ye Chen's words caused a stir in the surrounding crowd, all suspecting they had misheard.

Because these people really couldn't figure out why this godlike figure would refuse to take Yang Fan as a disciple, especially since the martial fanatic was one of the Four Young Masters of Jing city and was now a grandmaster of martial arts!

Being a master to a grandmaster of martial arts, isn't that a very prestigious, dazzling affair? Why would he refuse?
