Harrison was enraged. “You’re the homosexual! Your entire family is full of homosexuals! Get out. Get out of this room right now.”Chase asked, “If you’re not a homosexual, why are you hiring based on horoscopes?”“For the sole reason that I’m the HR manager. Everything I say, goes. What can you do about it? Beat me up?” Harrison sneered and said gleefully.He was given a hard slap on the face the moment he said this.Harrison was in shock. He covered his cheek with his hand and looked at Chase in disbelief. “How… How dare you hit me?!”“Would you believe me if I told you that I can hit you and even fire you?” Chase said calmly.Harrison said viciously, “Fire me? You? Do you think you’re our new CEO? You’re finished for hitting me. Just wait!”He took out his phone with another word and made a call. “Carlton, send a few security guards over to my office. Someone is making trouble here.”Five tall, muscular men in uniform rushed into the room not long after.“This is the rascal
“Five minutes and 20 seconds…” Chase looked at Sandy coolly. “You’re late.”“I apologize, Mr. Collins.” Sandy felt a chill in her heart.There was dead silence in the room.Sandy’s actions shocked everyone present.Harrison’s eyes widened.Sandy was the company’s deputy CEO. Her position was second to only the CEO.Wait…What did she call that rascal?M-Mr. Collins.That was when Harrison shivered. He fell weakly to the ground and looked at Chase in disbelief. “You… You’re the newly appointed CEO, Mr. Collins?”Barrett and the others were paralyzed by fear when they heard this. They started trembling as well.Chase crossed his legs and smiled at him to say, “Do you still remember what I told you? I can hit you and even fire you. Do you believe me now?”Harrison was stunned to hear that. He immediately began slapping himself. “I’m… I’m sorry, Mr. Collins. It was my fault for acting arrogantly, I was wrong…”He never imagined that the person his nephew wanted to give trouble
Riley finally burst out in the end, “Edward, he has been in there for almost an entire morning. Why isn’t he out yet?”“Don’t worry, Riley. I’ve already told my uncle about this. He won’t be able to pass the interview.” Even though Edward was also curious about this, he still smiled and comforted her.Anna said gleefully, “That’s right, Riley. Edward’s uncle is the HR manager and holds the power to recruit. If he doesn’t approve of that country bumpkin, he won’t be able to join the company.”Riley felt better when they consoled her about it.That was when they saw Harrison walking out in a hurry with a bag clenched under his armpit.Edward’s eyes lit up as he quickly went to him. “How did it go, Uncle Harrison? You didn’t let that rascal pass the interview, did you?”Harrison slapped Edward without a word. He said with a grim look on his face, “You almost got me in trouble, you ignorant thing.”This slap shocked Edward. Even Riley and the others were stunned.What was happening
“Don’t worry. We won’t say a thing about it. Hurry up and tell us.”Everyone pushed for the story.Anna sniggered and said, “I heard that when Mr. Chalk was interviewing him, Mr. Collins, who's here on an unofficial visit, saw how he was being picked on. Mr. Collins was enraged and called Miss Lawson about it. After that, Mr. Chalk was given a good scolding.”Realization dawned upon Edward. “I knew it. Why else would Uncle Harrison look at me like I’m the enemy and say that I almost got him into trouble? The newly appointed Mr. Collins saw everything.”“Riley, did you hear that? This isn't my fault. That rascal just got lucky.”“He should count his lucky stars.” Riley looked terribly upset.Edward consoled her, saying, “Don’t worry. I’ll find a reason to fire him.”It was soon after work, and Edward needed to negotiate a contract. He suggested bringing along Riley and the others for a learning experience.Chase did not plan to go, but as Riley was going, he had to tag along. Af
“Where exactly could you be?”Bianca clenched her teeth and said with tears in her eyes, “If you can save my grandpa, I'd be willing to take care of you and serve you for life.” Her phone suddenly rang. She quickly picked it up. “How… How is it Hounddog Creed? Have you found him?”“I’ve found him, Miss Cooper. He said for you to go to Room 802 of the Royal Capital Hotel to apologize to him personally, “ the man quickly told her.Bianca was not mad and instead cried out with joy when she heard this. “Good, good. This is good news.“Prepare the car. I’m going to the Royal Capital Hotel right now!”In Room 802 of the Royal Capital Hotel, there was a large, round glass table inside the room that was covered with luxurious food. There were also many bottles of branded alcohol.Edward, who was in a suit, raised his glass of wine to a middle-aged man not far from him. “Mr. Chapman, this is a toast for you. Thank you for honoring us with your presence. Cheers to you.”Before Mr. Chapm
Everyone turned to look at the door and saw a young man walking in with his hands in his pockets.“Chase Collins?”Edward and the others exclaimed in surprise.Riley was delighted to hear someone speak up for her, a little touched even.“Who the hell is this guy? How dare you poke your nose into my business?” Daniel stared at Chase coldly.Chase said nothing. He went to Riley and pulled her protectively behind his back.After that, he picked up a liquor bottle on the table and smashed it into Daniel’s head without another word. “How dare you touch my woman?”“Argh!!!”Daniel screamed and quickly covered his head with his hands. Blood trickled through his fingers.Riley and the others were stunned to see this. Next, their expressions were replaced with fear.Daniel was the general manager of Emgrand Group, and Chase had wounded him.This was bad news!Daniel held his hand in his hands and roared, “How dare you hit me, you lowlife?! I guarantee you that you'll pay terribly fo
The more she talked about it, the angrier she got. In the end, tears of resentment fell down her cheek.Chase looked at her in disappointment, but he still smiled as he said, “What if I refuse to apologize?”Riley almost went crazy with his answer. She took a deep breath and said coldly, “Then you should get out of here. I never want to see you again.”She thought Chase would regret what he said when she said those words and apologize to Daniel.However, Chase did not seem to be affected. All he did was shrug and say, “Alright. I’ll leave.”Chase turned to walk out after that. He was decisive about it.Riley was stunned. She felt a little bad about it as Chase had stood up for her, after all.However, the thought of the trouble he caused wiped out all her feelings of guilt, and they were replaced by anger instead.Edward immediately approached Daniel and groveled, “Mr. Chapman, Chase Collins is the one who hurt you. It has nothing to do with the rest of us.”“That’s right, Mr.
“Alright. I’ll help you on account of your sincerity,” Chase said nonchalantly.“Thank you, Miracle Doctor!” Bianca was crying tears of happiness as she invited him into the car.Riley, Edward, and the others happened to walk out of the hotel at the same time. They were also shocked to see the 18 Rolls-Royces parked outside.They were especially shocked to see so many important figures huddled around a young man as they respectfully invited him into the car.After Chase got inside the car, all 18 of the Rolls-Royces turned around and sped off while everyone looked on in amazement.Anna suddenly exclaimed with a look of disbelief.She pointed at the 18 Rolls-Royces driving away and stammered, “Did you see the person in that car? Why… Why did he look a little like… Chase Collins?”Raymond also exclaimed after Anna said this, “My gosh. I didn’t realize it before you said anything, but I think he looked like Chase Collins too.”Riley and Edward quickly turned to look at the convoy
A hand suddenly pressed down on Daley's shoulder, stopping him from biting the spiritual fruit."Huh? Who are you?" Daley's eyes narrowed as he stared at Chase."Chase Collins," Chase spouted the words.Daley's expression changed when he heard Chase's name."You're Chase Collins!" he burst out shouting. There was fear and shock in his eyes."That's right. It's me." Chase nodded."Oh no!" Daley began to lament silently. He had no idea that the ferocious, domineering man was here.He quietly called Myra a jinx.If he had known Chase was here, he would never set his eyes on the Red Cloud Fruit. Now, he had ended up in the hands of this monster.Daley trembled, his forehead covered in sweat."Well, um… Chase, it was wrong of me to offend you. Please show mercy this time. You can have these spiritual herbs as compensation." He quickly stuffed several spiritual herbs into Chase's hands.Chase shook his head to reject them. "I don't lack spiritual herbs.""But…" Daley was almost c
Myra's cultivation was lower than the man's. Even though she was able to achieve a breakthrough to stage one martial monarch because of the martial monarch pill, she was still not his match and was about to be defeated."Haha! Your cultivation level is garbage, Myra Kollins! How dare you fight me with such lousy abilities? Die!"The muscular young man punched Myra in the chest. She screamed in pain and flew off from the impact."Myra!"The others were shocked by the sight.Before anyone could save her, a long, black spear whistled through the air. It appeared out of thin air and was aimed right at them. The sharp head of the spear ran through the abdomen of a martial artist.His eyes widened with disbelief. After that, his body fell hard onto the ground."Damn it!"The few left behind became fearful and they turned to run. However, they could not escape. The spear came after them and stabbed all of them. They were all dead.Chase put the black spear away and sensed around with
Chase's physique was at his optimal strength. He combined his strength with the use of his Sword Technique's true energy. He could defeat any stage-one or stage-two martial monarchs even if he were not a martial monarch, much less these martial artists who were not his match.He slaughtered most of them almost right away."T-That's just too powerful!""He's a stage-seven martial monarch. Something isn't right. This must be a trap. We should run!"Most of the martial artists were scared to death as they quickly escaped.Chase shook his head. "Stop wasting your time. I've set up an Enchantment Formation. You won't be able to escape unless you're a martial deity."All of the martial artists turned pale when they heard him.A smile appeared on Chase's face as he slowly went over to them.He held a spiritual herb in his hand.Chase plucked another spiritual herb and gave it to Myra. "Keep this, Myra."Chase smiled gently at her. "Take it. It'll help you become a martial monarch an
At stage seven of martial monarch, Chase's strength was immense. His body was incredibly resilient and impervious to blades and spears."Huh? Why is someone here?"Suddenly, the sound of voices came from the distance.Chase turned toward the commotion and saw three young martial artists emerging from the forest."It's them!""They look like Secret Sect members!""Damn it! I heard screams earlier and thought something serious had happened."The three youths spotted four black-clad men tied up tightly and lying in a pit beneath a tree. Their eyes widened in shock."Who are they? Why did they tie up our brothers?" one of them whispered."Who cares?! Anyone bold enough to kidnap Secret Sect disciples must be tired of living!""Haha, exactly! Let's deal with him first and ask questions later!""Killing someone means paying with your life, and debts must be repaid. If he dares to commit a crime, he should face the consequences!"The youths exchanged words with themselves, and the
It turned out that the man in black was none other than Chase in disguise.At this moment, his face was pale, and his forehead was drenched in cold sweat. His heart pounded wildly as he gasped for air. His expression was one of shock and disbelief."How did you know it was a fake?" Chase demanded as he stared intently at the other man.He was not lying. The man in black had indeed been a guise he created. With spiritual power far exceeding that of a stage-one martial monarch, mimicking such a disguise was effortless for him.One might wonder why he did not use his real identity token. Chase smiled faintly at this. Revealing his true identity was simply out of the question."My name is Huckle Weber, an outer sect enforcer of the Secret Sect," the man replied coldly. "You committed a grave sin by killing your sect brothers tonight. You won't escape this. Come with me now.""An outer sect enforcer of the Secret Sect?" Chase's eyes flickered as his mind raced. Suddenly, he asked,
At that moment, Chase's speed surged dramatically. He grabbed one of the Secret Sect's disciples by the head and twisted forcefully. A sickening crack echoed as the skull shattered, spraying blood everywhere.The other man in black was stunned. He had never imagined that this seemingly frail young man possessed such terrifying physical strength.Chase turned and slapped the man across the face. The strike twisted his entire face, causing blood to gush from his nose as teeth mixed with blood spilled from his mouth.Chase's expression remained cold.These two were nothing more than insignificant pests to him. In the past, he would not have needed to exert the slightest effort to crush them easily.Still, these Secret Sect disciples were at stage nine of martial monarch, so Chase stayed cautious."It's time to end this," he declared.As he spoke, an overwhelming pressure descended like a mountain, suffocating the man in black and reddening his face."W-Who are you?" the man stamme
Yet somehow, this guy endured the attack!"Could he be carrying some kind of treasure?" The man in black's eyes lit up at the thought. He burst into laughter and declared, "Hand over the treasure, and I'll spare your life!"Chase shook his head coldly. "You think you're worthy of owning my possessions?""You arrogant fool! Die!"As soon as the words left his mouth, the man in black leaped into the air, swinging his long blade with ferocious precision. A faint purple hue emanated from the blade. It was clearly a profound-grade martial technique.The blade's light wreaked havoc.Chase stood motionless as he raised his right hand. His fingernails extended, transforming into fierce, razor-sharp claws. A series of deafening clashes echoed through the air.Chase's fingertips deflected 18 consecutive strikes without sustaining a scratch."How is this possible?" The man in black's pupils shrank, and a deep sense of fear filled his heart. The guy's claws were as unyielding as magical ar
"What did you say?!""Y-You dare do such a thing to us?!""I'm a direct disciple of the Secret Sect. If you dare insult me, you'll face eternal damnation—"Before the words were fully spoken, Chase flicked his finger, sending out a strand of sword energy that pierced the speaker's forehead.Two direct disciples of the Secret Sect dropped dead on the spot.Although Chase had not mastered any martial skills or divine abilities, he had acquired significant resources. It was more than enough to sustain his cultivation for several days.With a sharp exhale, Chase unleashed a stream of flames. The fire blazed fiercely, instantly consuming the two corpses until nothing remained.Chase then turned to leave. At that moment, he sensed danger.The wooden case strapped to his back popped open on its own. A pitch-black spear shot out from the case, hovering at his side with its tip pointed forward while gleaming menacingly. The spear traced an arc through the air, heading straight into the
The remaining disciples of the Secret Sect recoiled. Their expressions turned pale as they quickly retreated from the area.They had grossly underestimated Chase's strength.Initially, they assumed he was a novice martial monarch with barely any skills. But now, after watching him effortlessly slay one of their peers, they realized the grave error in their judgment."Brothers, attack together and kill him now!" one of them shouted in desperation.The four remaining disciples immediately condensed their martial monarch aura, unleashing an explosive combined attack.A deafening roar echoed through the valley as thick smoke and debris filled the air.When the dust settled, their faces turned ashen. Chase stood unscathed despite their full-force attack, and not even a single strand of his hair was harmed."What is this guy? How did he withstand the full strength of five martial monarchs?""His cultivation… It looks like he broke through only recently!"The disciples exchanged hurr
