You Are Not Qualified to Sit and Speak with Me

Suddenly, a phoenix cry pierced the sky.

With a swing of his wood-chopping knife, Xu Mu unleashed a blazing phoenix.

*Boom!*

The Sky Demon Clan elder hovering above was struck squarely. His body plummeted like a cannonball, smashing into the ground.

Soil blasted out in all directions.

Compounded by his previous injuries, he passed out cold once more.

Xu Mu descended from the sky and landed on the ground.

"Here!"

He tossed the wood-chopping knife to Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan caught it with one hand, a grin spreading across his face. "As expected of Brother Mu. That was insane. Looks like I still have a lot of work to do."

As for the other Cleaners watching nearby, they were all dumbfounded.

Who was this young man?

Ji Xun's eyes went wide. That Sky Demon had clearly stated that flight was possible at the late Divine Ability stage, proving the elder was at least at that level.

Yet, Xu Mu had knocked him out in a single blow. Her gaze upon Xu Mu shifted.

"Xu Mu, you're truly too strong."

Sun Ziqiang sighed softly. "If not for you, that Sky Demon would have definitely escaped."

"Mainly because he was already heavily injured."

Xu Mu waved it off with a smile, then added, "Brother, the crops here are ruined. I'm willing to pay five times the price in compensation."

[Favorability +6]

Xu Mu suddenly looked at Ji Xun. This woman, who usually had such a sharp tongue, actually generated Favorability points.

"Hahaha! Don't worry about that. The Cleaners will handle the compensation; we have a professional organization for that."

Sun Ziqiang waved his hand laughingly.

"Alright then, we'll be going."

Xu Mu nodded, then took out his phone and walked over to Ji Xun. "Hey beauty, let's exchange contact info."

[Favorability +5]

Ji Xun was stunned for a moment before reacting. "Okay... I'll call you after my grandfather returns my call."

"Thanks a lot. Old Chen, let's go."

Xu Mu said to Chen Xuan.

"Mm."

Chen Xuan packed the wood-chopping knife into the woven bag and followed behind Xu Mu.

Sun Ziqiang watched their retreating figures, his eyes filled with admiration. "Those two are going to be famous throughout the world."

Xu Mu and Chen Xuan took a car back to Jiang City together.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Chen Xuan leaned back and couldn't help but smile. "Brother Mu, you really are my lucky star. I managed to call off another engagement."

"To be honest, you're my lucky star too."

Xu Mu glanced at Chen Xuan with a smile.

...

Meanwhile.

In a high-rise building in Yang City, Ye Chen stood facing the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the streets below.

Beside him, Zhong Qianqian was typing away at a computer.

Suddenly, she hit the enter key and smiled. "Dragon King, I found her. That Cui Xia is currently in Yang City."

"Send the address down. Have her captured immediately."

Ye Chen looked at Zhong Qianqian and ordered.

"Yes."

Zhong Qianqian nodded.

Just then, the office door was pushed open, and a smiling middle-aged man with graying hair walked in.

"Dragon King, you called for me specifically. What's the matter?"

It was none other than Huang Qu, one of the Dragon King's right-hand men.

"I want to move against the Dai family."

Ye Chen said with an indifferent expression. "Bringing this hidden family to heel will be beneficial for us right now."

"Hidden families don't live in ruins but in the outside world. If you go too far, the Cleaners won't let you off the hook," Huang Qu said with a smile, taking out a pack of cigarettes.

"I'm just going to scare them a little. I'm not that reckless."

Ye Chen shook his head slightly.

"Alright, when are we going?"

Huang Qu asked.

"Now!"

Ye Chen said plainly.

...

The Dai Family.

Dai Feiying sat on the sofa in the hilltop villa, his eyes resembling those of a venomous snake.

It was now confirmed: Xu Mu had definitely joined a sect.

"Dad, until we know Xu Mu's background, we shouldn't act for the time being," Dai Xuan said to Dai Feiying.

Dai Feiying clenched his fists. "He's simply courting death! If I find an opportunity, I must make him disappear."

Hearing this, Dai Dongyang looked excited. "Grandpa, I'll send people to keep an eye on him constantly!"

Beside them, Dai Wenlin shook his head slightly. "Brother, this Xu Mu still has use."

"What do you know? Xu Mu has already bullied his way onto Dad's head, and you choose to be a turtle hiding in its shell?"

Dai Dongyang stared at Dai Wenlin and spoke coldly.

"Wenlin, blind tolerance will only make people push their luck. Where is the dignity of our Dai family?"

Dai Xuan also looked at Dai Wenlin. "Cowards only eat leftovers!"

Hearing this, Dai Dongyang revealed a slight smile.

"Bad news!"

At that moment, a guard scrambled into the living room, rolling and crawling, his face filled with terror.

"Useless trash! What scared you like this?"

Dai Feiying cursed angrily.

"Naturally, it's because of my arrival."

Ye Chen's voice drifted in from the distance.

The members of the Dai family all looked toward the door. Ye Chen was walking toward them, leading seven or eight people.

Seeing this, Dai Dongyang's face showed no fear; instead, he looked ecstatic.

Previously, he had been somewhat afraid of Ye Chen.

After all, Ye Chen had reached the Divine Ability realm at such a young age, putting him on par with his father.

But now, with a Grandmaster grandfather at home, a Divine Ability user like Ye Chen was nothing!

"Ye Chen! You dare come to our Dai family? We've already investigated your identity. Even if your dad saw me, he'd have to kneel!"

Dai Dongyang blocked Ye Chen's path.

"You're in my way."

Ye Chen looked at him with a flat expression.

"Watch how you talk to me! Do you really think our Dai family is a soft persimmon?"

Dai Dongyang shouted sternly.

*Boom!*

Ye Chen took a step forward, and the floorboards beneath him instantly exploded.

Dai Dongyang's body flew back uncontrollably, smashing heavily into the television in the distance.

*Bang!*

The TV screen shattered, falling to the floor along with Dai Dongyang.

"Ant! You aren't qualified to stand while speaking to me."

Ye Chen continued walking toward the living room.

"Brat! You're asking for death!"

Seeing this, Dai Xuan's body flashed with red light as he instantly attacked Ye Chen.

Ye Chen sneered. He raised his hand, forming a claw. "Dragon Suction!"

*Whoosh!*

A storm suddenly appeared around them. Dai Xuan was preparing to attack Ye Chen, but his body suddenly stopped listening to him, drawn in by a powerful suction force.

Even though he struggled to resist, he flew uncontrollably toward Ye Chen.

*Snap!*

Ye Chen grabbed Dai Xuan by the neck with one hand. "The phrase 'asking for death' should be applied to you."

He slammed him violently onto the ground.

*Boom!*

The ground cracked. Dai Xuan's body bounced twice before lying still.

Dai Wenlin was dumbfounded by the scene. He had assumed Ye Chen's strength was similar to his father's, but he hadn't expected the gap to be this massive.

Dai Feiying narrowed his eyes into slits filled with killing intent.

Ye Chen continued walking inside and sat on the sofa.

The people following him stood behind the sofa, watching everything with indifferent expressions.

"Ye Chen..."

Dai Feiying's face was twisted.

"Shut up! You aren't qualified to sit while speaking to me. Stand up, or... kneel!"

Ye Chen crossed his legs, looking at Dai Feiying with a flat expression.
