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
"Listen up! I won't destroy my skills because lowlives like you aren't good enough to be my enemies!""What arrogance!"A powerful negative energy exploded from the young man in black."Don't you know anyone who said that died in the end?"The young man in black waved his hand, and a black saber appeared out of thin air. It glinted with a chilling flash."A precious weapon!"Chase's eyes brightened. He had heard someone talk about the treasure vault of the Nefarious Deity Sect. This weapon seemed to have been taken from there."Die!" the young man roared, and the black saber slashed down the air.A vast sword flash shone with brilliance and came down at Chase like a raging storm that wanted to crush Chase to pieces."You're a mere martial god ant. How dare you act so arrogantly in front of me?"Chase grunted coldly. He swept the red battle spear in his hand across at his opponent.There was a series of explosions that caused tremors everywhere. The sword flash vanished and f
"Let's go!"The bearded man stood up with difficulty while glaring fiercely at Chase. "Mark my words! This grudge between us isn't settled. I won't let you off!"With those words, the group of seven quickly retreated while supporting the bearded man. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from view.…"Did something happen here?" A while later, the sound of footsteps echoed nearby.Two young men in green robes approached, and as they took in the scene before them, their expressions froze in shock."What's going on here? I can see signs of battle. Could it be that powerful warriors were fighting here?" one of the youths asked, feeling perplexed."Wait, I smell blood! Could it be that someone was killed in a fight here?" the other exclaimed in alarm.Following the scent of blood, the two came across the bodies of several fallen guards lying on the ground. Among them, the bearded man was now barely clinging to life."It's him!"The two youths recognized the bearded man instant
"That's right! Kill him!"The remaining warriors gritted their teeth, their faces twisting with rage as they spread out and surrounded Chase.Although they were wary of Chase's strength, there was not a trace of fear in their expressions."I don't enjoy killing unnecessarily," Chase said calmly as his gaze swept across the group. "If you leave now, I promise not to harm any of you.""Stop wasting your breath!" the bearded man roared. Brandishing a long blade, he charged at Chase. "Kill him! Kill this beast!"In an instant, icy flashes of blade light sliced toward Chase.These attackers, all at the mid-stage of martial god, unleashed their sharpest attacks without hesitation. Each move was deadly and decisive, aiming to give Chase no chance to retaliate.However, Chase simply raised his palm and struck. With each punch, he unleashed an overwhelming force that shattered all the incoming blades of light.The last attacker was blasted into the air, coughing up a mouthful of blood b
'This place must have more monsters. I'll return later to collect them. If other warriors grab the spoils, it'll be a huge loss,' Chase thought to himself.He stood up, his gaze sweeping across the distant warriors. "Scram," he said coldly.At that moment, the sound of rushing wind echoed in the distance. Eight warriors dashed forward at incredible speed, landing near Chase in the blink of an eye.These eight individuals were all martial gods, and among them were two particularly powerful elders who had already reached the mid-stage of martial god.The two leading figures radiated the most imposing aura. One wore a purple crown while the other had a thick beard and piercing, sinister eyes."Where's Lysander? What happened to him?" the bearded man demanded."He's dead," Chase replied indifferently."What?! Who dares to kill him?!" The bearded man erupted in rage, his eyes burning with fury as he glared at Chase.The other warriors were equally shocked. Lysander, an early-stage m
Lysander's body trembled as he gathered all the martial god energy within him, channeling it into his legs. He unleashed a flurry of kicks, each imbued with the force of his energy.At that moment, Lysander appeared like a masterful fighter. His movements were sharp and relentless.Each kick was faster than the last, and every punch carried a force that could shatter mountains as it slammed into the wild tiger's abdomen.The tiger howled in pain as its massive body slid several feet to the side. Its stomach was dented and bleeding profusely.However, Lysander's situation deteriorated rapidly. His body was drenched in blood, and his injuries became critical.The tiger lunged again, its jaws clamping down on Lysander's shoulder with a sickening crunch. Bones shattered, and blood sprayed in all directions, soaking his clothes."Help me!" Lysander cried out desperately."Run! Just run!" shouted the remaining martial artists who had not gotten far.The scene resembled a nightmare, l
The next day, Chase continued his journey.Suddenly, the ground began to tremble violently. In Chase's line of sight, a massive tiger-leopard hybrid came barreling toward him, its enormous paws smashing trees into splinters as it charged forward.This beast was akin to a martial god-level wild tiger, with a hulking frame, fur as tough as iron, and an aura radiating intense negative energy.The wild tiger let out a deafening roar. Its soundwaves reverberated in all directions, shaking the earth and instilling sheer terror in anyone who heard it."Damn it! That beast is back again!" a young martial artist cursed through gritted teeth.His left arm hung limp, shattered, and his chest bore a gruesome gash. He had nearly died from the tiger's earlier attack."Run! If we don't run now, we're dead!"The remaining five or six young martial artists turned and fled in panic.This wild tiger's strength was overwhelmingly powerful. Even elite martial god-level warriors would avoid a direct
The giant ape's massive club swept through the air, creating a terrifying gust that caused the crowns of nearby ancient trees to tremble violently.Meanwhile, Chase executed the techniques of his secret codex with agile movements. His figure flashed like lightning as he dodged the attack with precision.He surged forward without hesitation and delivered a fierce punch directly to the ape's abdomen.This strike was even more powerful than before, twisting the ape's intestines into a mess and splattering blood across the ground.The giant ape howled in anguish, thrashing wildly in an attempt to shake off its pain.Out of the corner of his eye, Chase noticed a crimson serpent coiled nearby. It slithered sinuously, measuring around ten feet long, with a body that released a pungent stench.The snake's cold, piercing gaze was fixed on Chase. It emanated a chilling sense of oppression. Its forked tongue flicked out menacingly as it launched itself at him.Chase's expression hardened.
The massive ape spread its enormous wings that spanned 25 feet in width, creating a dark shadow that blocked out the sunlight like two great black clouds.The ape let out a deafening bellow, a primal roar that resonated with the ferocity of an ancient beast.In an instant, the surrounding area—nearly 300 feet in radius—was swept by fierce winds. Sand whirled through the air, grass was uprooted, and trees swayed violently as their branches rattled and leaves scattered.The air was heavy with a menacing energy."A monster!" Chase muttered, narrowing his eyes as he took a defensive stance.The aura emanating from this creature was suffocating, its strength comparable to that of a martial god at its peak."Perfect! Let this serve as a lesson to all those fools that I'm not someone to be trifled with!"Chase launched himself forward without hesitation, closing the distance with the towering beast.His fist collided with the air, creating a sharp sonic boom that reverberated through
A sharp blade appeared in Chase's hand.This was a spiritual artifact named Azure Edge, forged by a renowned swordsmith after considerable expense and effort.A flash of cold light swept across, instantly felling over a dozen ghostly creatures.They stood no chance against Chase's strikes. Their throats were slit, and their heads separated cleanly from their bodies.A crimson crystal dropped into Chase's palm.It appeared unremarkable at first glance, but it contained a thick, viscous vitality and was more potent than ordinary blood. A faint spiritual essence seemed to pulse within it, emanating an almost sentient energy."Is this a ghost crystal?" Chase's eyes lit up with excitement.He immediately sat down cross-legged, focusing on restoring his depleted vitality.Within his core, his Sea of True Energy roiled and churned. Vitality surged as waves of energy coursed through his bloodstream, refining his muscles and bones."This ghost crystal is incredible. It's allowing my bo
