"You... you..."
Cousin Jiang was extremely angry, and the consequences were quite severe!
Jiang Ruoxu unleashed all his power, with his inner force surging wildly, reaching the level of a Transform Force expert... someone who has mastered the manipulation of qi to the point where they can even injure others from a distance using their inner force.
Proud Jiang Ruoxu had never been pushed to such a state by anyone before.
The force in his hands grew increasingly sharp, and his punches seemed capable of turning into lethal blades.
Yet, despite such fierce attacks, he couldn't even touch a single thread of Jiang Che's clothing.
Jiang Che had a footwork technique.
Earlier, while pranking Lin Yu, he had stolen that guy's cave fortune, taking the spatial jade pendant and the footwork manual "Footsteps of Snow Without a Trace."
Now... this technique was coming in handy!
"Footsteps of Snow Without a Trace" was indeed powerful, even among the best in the field of light techniques. No wonder Lin Xiaotian had placed it in the cave realm. Unfortunately, Lin Yu's entire fortune was snatched away by Jiang Che first.
"Swoosh!!"
A vigorous fist wind howled as it approached, and the qi in the space vibrated. Jiang Ruoxu was truly enraged, as his impression of Jiang Che had always been that of a worthless playboy, and now suddenly being told that the person he looked down upon was even stronger than him!
This instilled a fierce competitive spirit in him!
Around them, other members of the Jiang family also began to comment, as the Jiang family was a martial arts family, with almost everyone in the family practicing martial arts, and even the servants started at the level of hidden force.
"This... could Young Master really be losing his temper?"
"Is this really a Transform Force middle-level cultivation? I feel like Young Master Ruoxu's aura is scarier than many Transform Force late-level experts!"
"Our Young Master of the Jiang family has the potential to become a Grandmaster; he's definitely going to be a future Grandmaster!"
"Young Master Jiang Che is also quite impressive. Our Jiang family really has a lot of talents! Once these two young masters grow up and take the reins, who can stop our Jiang family from rising?"
Hearing the praise from those around him, Jiang Ruoxu's mouth unconsciously twisted up in a smirk.
"Bang——"
His smirk had barely formed when Jiang Che's fist, as big as a sandbag, landed squarely on his face, leaving no room for mercy!
He didn't even get the chance to smirk.
"I hate people who smirk. I absolutely hate it!"
Jiang Che shook his wrist, looking disdainfully at the young man who had been put down with just one punch.
"You... you actually dare to hit my face? My mom has never even hit my face!"
The little kid was furious!
Jiang Ruoxu was just a little brat who hadn't even grown all his hair yet. As a genius, he had always been the one to dish out the beatings, and no one had ever dared to hit him before.
“Oh, oh, oh? Mad, are we?”
When it comes to messing with people's minds, Jiang Che was a master!
Jiang Ruoxu, being a pampered prodigy, had probably never been disciplined by his parents, so as his elder cousin, it was my duty to teach this little brat a lesson.
"You—how dare you bully me?"
Jiang Ruoxu surged forward again, throwing punches at Jiang Che.
But clearly... his punches couldn't inflict any damage on Jiang Che.
Not even touching his clothes, Jiang Che simply dodged with a flash, disappearing from Jiang Ruoxu's sight, his speed was too fast!
At this moment, everyone else's eyes were glued to the scene.
This footwork... it was something indeed, and it wasn't from the Jiang family's own techniques!
Jiang Yunhuang nodded slightly, remaining calm... but the smile on his lips was impossible to suppress. Whether his grandsons won or lost, he would still gain face.
Ahem... my grandson has a master behind him, and this technique was taught to him by that master.
Jiang Yunhuang's words left the other families bewildered.
Master?
Who could be referred to as a master by Jiang Yunhuang...?
You must know that this martial arts supremo's cultivation was at the peak of Heavenly Force, one of the top ancient martial arts experts in all of Dragon Country. Being called a master by him... could it be that mythical figure above Heavenly Force?
But how could that be possible...?
Jiang Yunhuang smiled mysteriously, "This is my grandson's own fortune, but let me warn you, don't go disturbing him... angering me would result in just exterminating someone's entire family, but if you provoke the one behind Che Er, you'd be begging for death."
Using a tiger skin to make a banner!
Although all of this was deduced by Jiang Yunhuang, he was certain... there was definitely a super powerful figure standing behind his grandson!
A being even he had to respect, one that had likely transcended the limitations of the mundane world.
"Sss——"
The representatives from other families exchanged glances, their eyes full of disbelief!
This was practically an indirect acknowledgement of... the existence of that so-called divine martial arts expert?
And at that moment, Lin Chun, leaning on a cane, walked out.
Her eyes narrowed slightly as she gazed at Jiang Che on the martial arts platform.
"Footsteps of Snow Without a Trace, this is the top light technique 'Footsteps of Snow Without a Trace,' rumored to be lost... but unexpectedly, it has reappeared?"
Jiang Yunhuang's gaze shifted to Lin Chun. He naturally believed in what his lifelong wife said, as she came from a mysterious martial arts sect and had a far better eye than he did as a rough man.
Even a lost top-tier light technique like this exists, it seems Che'er truly met a master from the world beyond, and perhaps the world is so big... that even Grandmasters are not the limit of martial arts. The legend of the all-encompassing, martial arts divine expert might actually exist.
Lin Chun's words effectively confirmed the news that there was a bigshot behind Jiang Che!
......
At this moment, on the martial arts platform!
Little Jiang Ruoxu was on the verge of breaking down. He had been toyed with by Jiang Che for over ten minutes.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't even touch Jiang Che.
What Jiang Che said earlier was absolutely correct; he couldn't even touch a corner of Jiang Che's clothes.
"I won't accept this!!"
Jiang Ruoxu was raging impotently, especially hearing the discussions around him, which made him even more embarrassed.
Trying to show off and failing... was so awkward that he could dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes.
"Alright, alright, stop raging impotently."
Jiang Che stretched his muscles, revealing a maniacal smile.
Jiang Ruoxu's martial arts spirit had already been shattered by him, and now it was time to give him a good beating to completely subjugate him!
"Hehehe——"
Jiang Ruoxu, seeing Jiang Che stop dodging and even turn toward him, couldn't help but shudder.
Especially when he saw Jiang Che's maniacal smirk, a chilling sensation ran down his spine.
"You..."
"Bang!!!" Jiang Che grabbed him and started pummeling him without hesitation!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
