Chen Ningshuang's Fear: Did She Hit the Grandmaster's Grandson

Jiang Yunhuang, standing at an imposing height of 1.9 meters, sat on the sofa, which seemed ready to collapse under his weight.

He already knew that Jiang Che wasn’t seriously injured—one glance was enough to confirm that.

He didn’t bother holding Jiang Yunli accountable for exaggerating the situation.

After all... how important was a severe injury?

As long as Jiang Che wasn’t dead, he had the means to save him!

The real issue was that someone dared to lay a hand on his grandson?

They must have a death wish!

However, Jiang Yunhuang soon noticed something unusual.

“Che’er... have you reached the Transform Force stage?”

Jiang Yunhuang was utterly shocked. In his memory, Jiang Che had no cultivation talent whatsoever!

After all, Jiang Che was his grandson, and he had tested Jiang Che’s innate potential at birth. His meridians were severely blocked, making it nearly impossible for his internal energy to circulate. He was destined to never step into the world of cultivation!

Even after decades of cultivation, it would be difficult for him to become a Transform Force expert. Last year, during Jiang Che’s coming-of-age ceremony... he was still an ordinary person!

How could this be—

Jiang Che nodded calmly. “Yes, I’ve reached the Transform Force stage. I’m currently at the mid-level Transform Force.”

Jiang Yunhuang narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Jiang Che from head to toe. He grabbed Jiang Che’s arm with his large hand.

Then his expression grew even more puzzled.

“What the hell? This is bizarre! His meridians are still blocked—he’s clearly a cultivation failure. How could he reach mid-level Transform Force in just one year?”

The old man was beginning to question his understanding of life.

Jiang Che didn’t say anything, because his grandfather was absolutely right.

He truly was a cultivation failure, completely unsuited for ancient martial arts. It was only after extracting nearly a century’s worth of internal energy from his system that he barely managed to break through to mid-level Transform Force.

That’s why he never bothered cultivating. He figured it was more worthwhile to spend his time chasing girls than grinding away at cultivation.

He coasted through life, relying entirely on his system to spoon-feed him progress.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yunli was also dumbfounded. Her son was a Transform Force expert? How come she, his mother, had no idea about this?

“Grandpa, last year I happened to meet an old man with white hair on the street. He grabbed me and insisted that I was a once-in-a-millennium ancient martial arts prodigy... and wanted to take me as his disciple.”

Jiang Yunhuang was stunned, his lips twitching uncontrollably as he glanced at his grandson.

Who in their right mind would say Jiang Che had good cultivation talent? To put it bluntly... even a dog would shake its head in disbelief.

He wanted to say, “Are you sure you weren’t scammed? Was it one of those ten-dollar martial arts manuals?”

But the evidence was right in front of him, and he had no choice but to believe it.

Jiang Che was undeniably a genuine Transform Force expert. It was utterly baffling!

“Grandpa, as a Heaven Force Grandmaster, you should know who my master is, right? Ever since meeting him... I’ve been dreaming about him teaching me secret martial arts techniques!”

Upon hearing Jiang Che’s words, Jiang Yunhuang’s eyes widened in shock.

Imparting knowledge through dreams? Enlightenment through direct transmission? What the hell? This sounded like something out of a fantasy novel!

As a Heaven Force Grandmaster, he felt a pang of unease. His mind raced, trying to figure out who this mysterious figure could be.

But in the end, he could only cough awkwardly and say, “Ahem... Everyone has their own opportunities. Che’er, you’ve encountered a true master. You’ll undoubtedly reach the pinnacle of martial arts in the future...”

I can’t very well tell you that I have no idea who this person is, can I?

After some more small talk, Jiang Yunhuang asked patiently, “Che’er, how do you plan to deal with the Chen Family and that Chen Ningshuang?”

“The Chen Family? I think we can drop the ‘ancient martial arts’ part of their title,” Jiang Che replied nonchalantly.

Jiang Yunhuang understood immediately.

“As the director of the Ancient Martial Arts Administration Bureau, I naturally have the authority to revoke the special status of all Chen Family members as ancient martial artists. From now on, the Chen Family will be prohibited from practicing ancient martial arts...”

Without the protection of their ancient martial arts status, the Chen Family would only continue to decline.

If this were decades ago, when he was the arrogant young man who had reached the Grandmaster level in his thirties, he would have stormed the Chen Family village with a sword and left a trail of blood.

But this was a society governed by law. While Grandmasters were indeed terrifying—comparable to human tanks, with their impenetrable energy shields that could even withstand sniper bullets—could they withstand a barrage of Katyusha rockets?

“As for Chen Ningshuang... let her be my maid,” Jiang Che said casually, sealing the fate of the talented young woman.

Jiang Yunhuang frowned slightly. That girl was at the mid-level Transform Force stage. Could his grandson really keep her in check?

Having been young once himself, he knew exactly what Jiang Che was thinking. Back in his day, he had been a notorious playboy, known as the “Romantic Grandmaster.” But karma had caught up with him—despite having over a dozen concubines, he only ended up with one son and one daughter.

That’s why he doted on Jiang Che so much.

“Alright, I’ll bring the girl to you,” Jiang Yunhuang said.

......

Chen Ningshuang was under immense pressure.

She felt as if her heart was being squeezed tightly, overwhelmed by a sense of tension and dread, though she couldn’t pinpoint the exact reason.

Just then, she heard voices outside the police station.

Was there some kind of director here?

But soon, she understood.

When she saw Jiang Yunhuang and the others, her head spun.

The sheer oppressive aura radiating from him made her tremble, even as a mid-level Transform Force expert.

“Are you Chen Ningshuang?”

Jiang Yunhuang stood before her like a mountain, not bothering to conceal his Heaven Force Grandmaster cultivation. His overwhelming presence bore down on the 19-year-old girl.

“Yes, I am Chen Ningshuang,” she replied, her voice trembling but her back straight as she stood under the immense pressure.

This level of intimidation far surpassed even her father, who was at the peak of the Transform Force stage.

A Grandmaster? No, no... she had met Grandmasters before, and they didn’t exert this kind of pressure.

Then... he must be a Heaven Force Grandmaster?

Although she had been praised within the Chen Family as having the potential to reach the Heaven Force stage, facing an actual Heaven Force Grandmaster filled her with terror.

“Hmph... you’ve got some guts. No wonder you dared to attack my grandson,” Jiang Yunhuang said, his words leaving Chen Ningshuang momentarily stunned.

His grandson... could it be that Jiang Che, the young master she had knocked away, was his grandson?

In an instant, fear consumed her.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t suppress the dread rising in her heart. She was aloof and proud, yes... but she was still capable of fear!

Especially since she had injured the grandson of a Heaven Force Grandmaster. The Chen Family would undoubtedly suffer the consequences. Her father, her brother—they would all be implicated because of her actions.

Never in her life had she felt such terror.
