Early the next morning, Chase woke up to find Quinn gone. There was a note on the table.[I’m off for work. I made you breakfast. It’s in the insulation cabinet. Finish it before coming to work. By the way, I’ve also washed your clothes. Hang them out to dry yourself.]“This woman isn’t as cold as I thought…” Chase smiled and took his breakfast out of the insulation cabinet to finish it.After he was done hanging his clothes out to dry, Chase headed straight for Blizzard Group.Every single person in Blizzard Group from the low-level employees to the higher management was especially busy at work. Even lunch was settled at their office tables.Chase knocked on the door and entered the CEO’s office. Quinn looked up at him and said gleefully, “You’re here just in time, Chase. I need you to take this document over to La Fleur and get them to stamp it.”Chase had no idea how to react to this task. He asked, “Where’s your secretary? Isn’t this supposed to be her job?”“Elaine is meeti
Chase was not angered. Instead, he replied with amusement, “Will you believe it if I say that you won’t be the assistant general manager for very long?”Edward was instantly enraged. “Nonsense!”Riley said coldly, “You shouldn’t say something like that even if you’re jealous of Edward being better than you, Chase.”“I’m jealous of him?” Chase laughed.“Aren’t you?”Riley was full of herself as she looked at Chase. There was a look of disgust on her face. “Edward is now the company’s assistant general manager despite his young age while you’re just a minor employee. What else could it be if you’re not jealous of him?”“Believe whatever you want. Trust me, the man you're so proud of will return to his true form very soon.”Chase did not even bother arguing with her and left after saying that.Riley’s phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Henry.After she hung up, she quickly called out to Chase and said, “Wait. My dad wants to talk to you.”Chase frowned and took the phone fr
Raymond and Anna were gleeful at this idea.They knew that Edward was about to play Chase like a fool.There were two security guards dozing off at the parking entrance of Tangent Hotel.Chase stopped right at the entrance, but the boom barrier did not move. He pressed on the horn gently.The security guards jumped. They were about to curse out loud when they saw the little gold man on the Rolls-Royce. They immediately got to work and raised the boom barrier.Chase nodded thanks to both of them and drove into the parking lot.One of the security guards followed him inside and waited for Chase to park the car. He approached Chase to curry favor with him. “Do you need me to help you park the car, sir?”Chase wanted to reject the offer but Henry suddenly called him on the phone.“Thanks for the help.”Chase handed his keys over to the security guard and walked toward an elevator.“It’s no problem at all.”The security guard took the keys from him. He had met many rich men who w
They were two to three meters apart, but Chase could sense how confident Yvette was.He turned to look at Henry and said, “Uncle Henry, what’s happening…”Henry smiled and said, “I asked you here today to introduce Whitney’s daughter, Yvette, to you. Young people would have more to chat among themselves. You should get to know each other.”Chase was rendered speechless.He thought Henry asked him here for something important.In the end, this was just a blind date?Chase said, “Uncle Henry, I need to go. There’s something I need to attend to…”He did not give Yvette a second glance at all.Whitney’s face fell when she heard his reply.That brat.What did he mean?The three of them had waited half the day for him and he was leaving the moment he arrived.Henry wanted to get him to stay, but Yvette spoke up, “Stop playing games like this to catch my attention. You need to know for yourself if you’re good enough to do that.”She looked at Chase with confidence and continued,
Chase raised an eyebrow and said, “I said I don’t really drive. That doesn’t mean I don’t own a car. In fact, I’ve just gotten a Rolls-Royce Phantom from the car dealership.“As for having a house, it’s true that I don’t have one, but I do have a villa situated at No. 1, Imperial Dragon Bay.“For my savings, a hundred million is a little too low, isn’t it? I’m embarrassed to talk about anything lower than ten billion.”The look on Whitney's and her children’s faces changed.Rolls-Royce Phantom?Villa?Savings of ten billion?This guy was a rich man, after all.Whitney immediately became very friendly. She wanted to get better associated with Chase.That was when a sarcastic voice spoke from outside the door, “Stop boasting, Collins!”The next moment, Edward entered the room with Riley, Anna, and Raymond.“Riley, Edward, you’re finally here.” Henry gave them a look to hint at them to help get Chase and Yvette together.However, Edward pretended not to notice as he continued,
After Chase said that, Whitney and the three were stunned.Edward roared, “Don’t listen to him! He’s just jealous, so that’s why he said I won’t be the assistant general manager for long.”Whitney then started shrieking at Chase, “Beg you? Do you think you're the chairman of his company?“You’re just an insignificant employee and you need to do whatever Edward tells you to do.“Stop pretending if you don’t have the ability. If it weren't for Edward, we would've kicked you out a long time ago.” Ted chuckled coldly as he looked at Chase.“Edward, I’ll go to your company with my brother tomorrow. Please make the arrangements,” Yvette said flatteringly.“Don’t worry.”Edward patted his chest and promised, “I’ll recommend you to the company when the time comes. I’m 80% sure it'll be no problem.”“Alright. Thank you, Edward.”Whitney grinned. Then, she peered at Chase in disdain. “Edward, I don't mean to be nosey, but you should fire such a disobedient employee like him.”“That’s a
After locating the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Edward did not hesitate to get into the driver’s seat.“Edward, you've been drinking. I don't think you should drive. Let Raymond drive,” Riley said worriedly.“I’m fine. I’m not drunk. I’m still sober.” Edward pushed her hand away and got into the driver’s seat.It was unknown if he was drunk or if he was just showing off. After he got into the driver’s seat, he slammed down on the accelerator, which made a loud noise.At that moment, the entire parking lot was filled with the sound of his car.“Look, I’m not drunk.”Edward whistled and said, “Get out of the way. I’ll drive the car out.”“Be careful,” Riley reminded.“I’m not drunk.”As Edward repeated that, he shifted the gears and turned the steering wheel. After that, he stepped on the accelerator and drove the car forward.However, the car reversed.“Huh? Why is it reversing? Am I really drunk?”Edward noticed something was wrong, so he wanted to step on the brakes.Suddenly,
When Edward and the gang heard this, they got scared. They thought the owner of the Rolls-Royce Phantom had shown up.However, when they turned around, they saw a familiar figure.The fear in Edward’s face vanished when he saw that figure. Instead, it was replaced by endless disdain. “It’s you. You scared me.”“Who else did you think it was?” Chase lifted his eyebrows as he asked.Anna said coldly, “Collins, didn’t we ask you to get lost? Why did you follow us here so shamelessly?”“I think he must've regretted his decision to reject Edward. He's probably here to kneel to Edward and beg him,” Raymond said in contempt.“You regret it now, huh? It’s too late. Listen, I’ll fire you the minute I get to the office tomorrow,” Edward said coldly.After he said that, he got out of the car and tossed some cash at Chase. “Here’s ten dollars for your taxi fare. Take it and get lost.”He was worried that if he continued wasting his breath with Chase, the owner of the Rolls-Royce would show
"Who did this?!" Doug looked around angrily.Chase stood up and glanced at Doug. He saw that Doug was only a stage-one martial god."Did you do this?!" Doug glared ferociously at Chase.Chase shook his head. He did not really want to talk to Doug.A lowlife like him was not good enough to talk to Chase."Hmph! You have no idea what's good for you. I'll kill you today!" Doug roared coldly.He pulled his sword out from the sheath."Is death what you're looking for?"Chase narrowed his eyes."Haha! My big brother is almost here. Kneel and beg if you know what's good for you. I might consider sparing your life.""You talk too much!"The look in Chase's eyes was cold, and he gave Doug a nonchalant glance. Such a character would not affect him much. Chase was not interested in this man at all."You…"Chip watched all of this with fear in his wide eyes. "How dare you hit me?! My big brother won't let you get away with this.""Shut up!"Chase gave him a backhanded slap that land
A smile broke out on Chase's face. Such a quality pill made a huge difference in the attack skills of early-stage martial gods. It could even help a mid-stage martial god temporarily recover peak form.There might be some spiritual herbs in the vault of the Nefarious Deity Sect that were extraordinary, and Chase could not afford any of them with his current wealth. Besides that, he had to buy a set of suitable guides to further solidify his martial arts skills.Chase mumbled to himself, "I have to get a pill that can overhaul my bones and veins to improve my physique and make it go through a rebirth before I can continue enhancing my level."He thought about this."Die, you thief!"A roar was suddenly heard behind him.Someone in a green shirt came running toward Chase.It was a young man who did not expect Chase to move so fast. Chase lost him in the blink of an eye, and this angered the young man in the green shirt. "You won't escape me!"There was a sound of something flying
"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.
