It was Chase.When he scanned the meeting room, he spotted Yvette and Ted sitting upright and still.It was them.At that moment, Chase touched his nose with a shocked look.“Chase?”When Yvette and Ted saw Chase, their eyes widened in shock.“Damn it, why did he follow us in here? He’s like a pesky fly.”Ted’s expression changed as he growled, “He must be mad that we scolded him just now, so he came here to cause trouble.”“Ted, what should we do?” Yvette was nervous.They had prepared for so long for the interview today.They would be so regretful if Chase ruined it for them.“Don’t worry, I’ll kick this kid out.” Ted gritted his teeth and walked toward Chase.Blocking Chase, he asked with a dark expression, “Collins, why are you here?”“I’m interviewing you,” Chase replied.“You?”Ted scoffed. “Who do you think you are? You’re not qualified to interview us.“I think you’re just here to cause trouble. If you’re smart, you should get lost right now or I won’t spare you
Silas yelped in pain and took out his phone to call the head of security, Barrett. “Mr. Carlton, someone’s making a scene at the company. Come over with your men right now!“Yes, the meeting room.”After he hung up, Silas looked at Chase coldly, “I’ve called security. It’s over for you!”“Oh yeah? I’ll wait.” Chase let go of him and sat down indifferently.“Collins, how dare you hit Silas? You’re in trouble now!” Yvette chuckled in schadenfreude.Ted also smiled maliciously. “You loser. Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. You must be thinking that since you’re going to get fired anyway, you should just go all out.“But I’m not scared of you. Silas can be our witness when Mr. Collins gets here later.“Do you think we’ll fail the interview after you make a scene? How preposterous.”“Ted is right.” Silas nodded. “Don’t worry, I’ll be your witness when Mr. Collins gets here later.”…After Barrett hung up the call in the security office, he waved his hand and called ou
When Ted and Yvette saw that, they were stunned.Did they hear him correctly? Did he just call Chase 'Mr. Collins'?Silas was stunned. Then, he roared, “Mr. Carlton, what are you doing? That kid isn't…”“Shut the hell up!” Barrett roared at him. At this moment, he wanted to chop Silas into pieces. “You blind fool! This is our CEO, Mr. Collins! How dare you insult him?!”Silas heard an explosion going off in his head. He was completely petrified.‘That kid is Mr. Collins! How is that possible?’ he wondered to himself.Then, his face turned pale because Barrett would not have made a mistake. If that were the case, did this not mean Silas’ career was over?“No! No way!”Suddenly, Yvette shrieked, “How is he Mr. Collins? I don’t believe you!”At this moment, her features were contorted, and she was howling like a ghoul.The poor guy she looked down on was actually the CEO of a listed company.This realization felt like a heavy strike to her chest. Her heart was about to break in
This was not over yet. Sandy lifted her head to look at Yvette and Ted before saying, “I’m officially declaring that you’ve failed your interview. From now on, you’ll be blacklisted by us, never to be hired by La Fleur!" Yvette and Ted shuddered, their faces filled with remorse.“Kick them out!”With a wave of her hand, Sandy turned to leave.Barrett smirked coldly as he looked at Silas, Ted, and Yvette. Then, he waved his hand and ordered, “Kick these three idiots out!”The bodyguards behind him rushed over and carried the three out.…This was the first time Chase was entering his CEO's office in La Fleur. He nodded in satisfaction as he walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows to look at the view.He had to admit that La Fleur had chosen an amazing location. Even though this was the city center where every inch of land was extremely precious, he could still have a vast view of the river from a distance.At this moment, someone knocked on his door.“Come in.” Chase sat down.
At the entrance to La Fleur, a small commotion was taking place.“Madam, you can't enter our company. We hope to seek your understanding for this."The security guards stopped Whitney as they explained non-stop.Whitney placed her hands on her hips, shouting angrily, “You’re just a bunch of guard dogs! How dare you stop me from going in?“I’m not afraid to tell you that I know the assistant general manager, Edward Wright!“When I see him, I’ll report you all to him so that you’ll get fired!”After she said that, the security guards’ faces fell.The leader said carefully, “Y-You know Mr. Wright?”“Yeah!”Whitney chuckled arrogantly. “Not only that but my daughter and son are going to be the secretary and driver of your CEO.“If you dare to treat me like this, don't dream of me sparing you in the future!”The security guards were scared, so they quickly switched from arrogance to deference. “Madam, it’s all a misunderstanding. You can go in now.”Whitney became even more arro
“Let’s wait for a little longer.”After he said that, he got a call from Whitney.Edward quickly sat up and shushed the others. “Whitney’s calling. I think they’ve passed the interview.”When he answered, Edward chuckled and said, “So, how was it?”“You son of a bitch!” Whitney cursed in exasperation the moment the call went through.“Why are you cursing at me?” Edward’s face fell as he asked in annoyance.Whitney continued, “You scoundrel, I’m kind enough for just cursing at you. If the security guards hadn't kicked us out, I would've already killed you!"“What did you say? You were kicked out? What happened?” Edward’s expression changed.When Riley and the others heard this, they all looked over.Whitney roared into the phone, “You asshole, why are you still putting on an act? If it wasn't because of you, Ted and Yvette wouldn’t have offended Mr. Collins!”“Mom, let me speak to that son of a bitch.” Ted snatched the phone over and said through gritted teeth, “Edward, you ba
Edward was stunned for a moment before he burst into laughter. “Hahaha! What did you say? Did you just say you’re firing all of us?”“Collins, who do you think you are? What right do you have to fire us?” Anna was utterly amused.Immediately, the four of them clutched their stomachs as they laughed loudly.Riley was looking at Chase like he was a clown. At the same time, she also found him ridiculous.Chase was about to say something when the speaker in the office broadcasted with a very stern voice, “Emergency notice, all employees please come to the meeting room for CEO Collins’ speech.“It's compulsory for everyone to attend aside from the employees who are attending to business outside and the ones on leave. No one shall be absent. All department leaders, please watch over your employees and maintain order.”The speaker repeated the announcement three times.At that moment, the entire company was in an uproar.Everyone stopped what they were doing and started discussing amo
At this moment, Raymond pointed at Chase and asked, “Edward, what should we do with him? The broadcast stated that all employees should be present, and no one is allowed to miss it.”Edward was also at a loss.Even though he had fired Chase, they had not completed the termination process yet. Chase was still technically an employee.Edward’s expression changed as he said, “Whatever, we'll just take him with us. We can ask him to get lost after the meeting.”Once he said that, he looked at Chase coldly. “Collins, you’re so lucky that you get to see the CEO before you leave the company.”Then, the group headed to the meeting room.Many employees had already arrived inside the huge meeting room. At the moment, everyone was talking among themselves. When Edward came in with his group, a middle-aged man in a suit greeted him, “Mr. Wright, you’re here.”The man’s name was Victor Lewis, and he was also an assistant general manager at La Fleur. He had a pretty good relationship with Edw
The lion's massive body flew off into the air.Chase lunged forward. His left hand was curved into a claw as he grabbed the lion's head. He pulled hard with his hand despite having a sword in his right.Blood splattered everywhere.Using sheer strength, he separated the lion's head from its body and flung it to the side.This caught the attention of many dark beasts that were martial gods."Huh? This human martial god looks really powerful. If we can get such a young elite to be our servant, we can make use of him for quite a while."Chase's slaughtering had crossed the line of most of these dark beasts.Powerful demon energy immediately burst from every corner of the valley. It gathered within the valley and formed into a dark chain of demon energy that came falling on Chase like a net to kill him.Chase swung the Purple Lightning Blade. The blade's flash exploded to every corner and destroyed the demon energy.There was a sharp look in Chase's eyes as he noticed something st
Chase knew that among all the shadow beasts in the region, these creatures provided the greatest challenge for honing his strength.The more powerful the beast, the stronger its physique, and its blood essence carried immense energy. Consuming it could bring tremendous benefits to a martial god.However, the area where he had just fought was still on the outermost edges of the Forbidden Zone, meaning there were no truly formidable shadow beasts nearby.Another deafening beastly cry shattered the silence, shaking the heavens.A massive shadow loomed over Chase, blocking out the sunlight and forcing him to squint against the darkness.His brows furrowed, and when he looked up, his pupils contracted sharply.A colossal black eagle soared above, its wings flaring like razor-sharp blades, dominating the skies with imperial arrogance.This shadow beast's aura was even more terrifying than that of an ordinary martial god-level beast!It had reached the peak of stage-nine martial god!
"Stay… Stay back!"The white-robed young man was terrified, stumbling backward in panic."What are you all standing there for?! Save me!" He screamed, his voice filled with desperation.Finally snapping out of his daze, the black-robed martial artist lunged at Chase, his palm slicing through the air in a powerful strike. However, he underestimated Chase's strength.With a single impact, the man's entire arm shattered into dust. He let out a miserable scream as his body was sent flying!Chase's attacks were too swift, too fierce. Even with the two of them working together, they could not withstand his power!"Run!"The last remaining martial artist in green robes was so frightened that his soul nearly left his body.He turned to flee without hesitation.Chase chased him down in an instant, delivering a powerful whip-like kick that knocked him unconscious on the spot.Then, he grabbed both lifeless bodies and tossed them into the undergrowth. Only after dealing with them did he
Hearing this, Chase immediately understood the situation. They were trying to rob him!He spread his hands casually. "Oh, that thing? I already ate it."Beside him, Emilia nearly burst out laughing. This guy was too good at bluffing!Chase rolled his eyes. "If you want it so badly, why don't you come take it?""You refuse to cooperate? Fine, I'll make you regret it!" The young man in white robes grew furious, his expression turning ice-cold. "You little bastard! Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you practice martial arts! If you don't hand it over, I'll break your damn legs today!""Oh? Is that so?" Chase grinned, showing his teeth. "In that case, why don't we spar a little?""You're asking for death!" The white-robed young man charged at him, his companion following closely behind.A terrifying surge of spiritual energy exploded outward.Chase narrowed his eyes. With one punch, he sent both of them flying backward with a loud bang!"W-What?! This is peak… martial god
The young woman's face flushed red as she hastily pulled her collar together, her wary gaze locked onto Chase."Are you a body-refining martial artist? Attacking me like that was despicable, shameless, and downright vile! I'll kill you to uphold justice!" she shouted indignantly.Chase let out a helpless chuckle. "Miss, I just saved your life, yet instead of thanking me, you call me despicable?"The woman stiffened, her lips parting as if to argue. In the end, however, she lowered her head and muttered an apology, "I lost my composure. Please forgive me."After saying this, she retrieved a dagger from her robe and handed it to Chase. Her expression seemed sincere."My name is Emilia Larsen. This was left to me by my parents. Consider it my way of repaying you for saving my life. I hope you won't refuse it. This dagger is exceptionally sharp—it can slice through iron like it's mud. Keep it safe and don't lose it.""Oh?" Chase raised an eyebrow as he accepted the dagger, examining
The sword shadow was incomparably sharp, moving at blinding speed.Caught off guard, Chase felt a sharp sting as a cut split open his shoulder, sending blood splattering through the air.Pain shot through him. The attack was so fast that he could not even see who had launched it.At that moment, Chase clasped his hands behind his back, his gaze cold and indifferent. Then, he raised a hand and flicked his fingers.A purple-gold flame ignited!The fire landed directly on the white sword shadow. In an instant, it was engulfed in roaring flames, disintegrating into ashes within seconds!"What?!" A shocked gasp echoed from the darkness.Chase sneered, his figure flickering forward like lightning. With a swift kick, he sent the hidden figure sprawling to the ground."Who are you?" A woman's voice shouted in both fear and disbelief from the darkness."You tried to ambush me?" Chase looked down at her, his expression unreadable."H-How did you know?"The figure gasped, her hands fly
In an instant, Chase transformed into an unrivaled demon lord, his mere gestures capable of shattering the void!One by one, the beasts collapsed, all falling beneath Chase's iron fists. Their bodies were reduced to pulp as they died in pools of blood!"T-This… This is insane! Just two punches and he slaughtered eight Ghost Boar monarchs and a tiger-like creature!"A young martial artist watching from a distance was completely dumbfounded. His jaw was hanging open, and he nearly swallowed his own tongue. He had never seen anything so brutal!These were Ghost Boar monarchs, each as powerful as a ferocious beast, yet not a single one could withstand even a single punch. Their skulls were shattered in an instant, with blood spraying in every direction.Chase was not human. He was like a rampaging beast from an ancient wilderness, overflowing with sheer brutality.In the end, only one Ghost Boar monarch remained, the one whose spine Chase had crushed with a single stomp.It lay dyin
The remaining beasts froze in place, their eyes wide with horror. They simply could not comprehend how a frail-looking human could possess such overwhelming strength. The scene before them shattered their understanding of reality."You fools! What are you standing around for? Get over here!"Chase's thunderous voice echoed, filled with unmatched dominance and ruthlessness.One of the Ghost Boar monarchs let out an enraged howl before charging straight at him.The remaining dozen or so followed close behind, snarling viciously as they stormed forward. To them, Chase was nothing more than prey!"You want to die?" A cold glint flashed in Chase's eyes, his killing intent surging.He said nothing more. His figure vanished in a blur as he shot forward like lightning while his fist swung down with devastating force!The first charging Ghost Boar monarch was sent flying, its body instantly flattening as blood splattered across the ground.Without pausing, Chase stepped forward and smas
Despite his recent breakthrough, Chase's attention was drawn elsewhere. He was more concerned that the corpse of the massive Ghost Boar had been completely devoured!Not just that, but three other Ghost Boar carcasses nearby had also been torn apart, likely taken down by someone else."Since I'm already here in this valley, I might as well take a look."Muttering to himself, Chase's figure flickered, and he rushed down from the hilltop in the next instant.One of the remaining Ghost Boars let out a violent roar the moment Chase appeared.His expression remained calm. With a swift motion, he swung his fist downward.A deep, muffled impact echoed.The Ghost Boar staggered backward with blood seeping from its mouth!Enraged, the Ghost Boar howled and charged straight at Chase, aiming to ram into him with its massive bulk.Chase's eyebrow twitched as he effortlessly dodged aside.Then, in one fluid motion, he leaped onto the boar's back, grabbing a fistful of its bristly mane bef
