Chapter 108 – Attack

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“To be able to find a precious gem in a crappy place like this, this is excellent work.” Looking at Chen Heng’s departing figure, Liu Jue had a look of appreciation on his face.

Liu Yi stood by his side, a look of annoyance on her face.

“I really wasn’t thinking like that.”

She looked at Liu Jue in frustration as she said, “Big brother, only you think about investments and roping in people.”

“Then what were you thinking?” Liu Jue turned to look at his little sister as he frowned.

“I just felt…” Liu Yi hesitated.

“Don’t tell me you gave it to him because you thought he was pitiful,” Liu Jue said expressionlessly.

Liu Yi did not reply, but she looked a bit hesitant.

It was evident that that was what she was thinking.

“Looks like I overestimated you.”

Liu Jue sighed, “Pitiful, pitiful, you think he’s pitiful? No, the pitiful one is you.”

A cold smile appeared on his face, “He’s in a place like this because he was born here and never saw a brighter future. But you are born from the Liu family and can reach greater heights, and because you’re weak and powerless, you were willing to come to a small place like this to run away from reality. What is the point in that?”

Liu Yi remained silent and did not say anything.

“Put away your boring sympathy and weakness.”

Liu Jue’s expression became colder as he said, “At the end of the day, regardless of why you did it, you did well.

“Now, continue to get along with him. You can use the family’s resources to get some things for him to rope him in more. Of course, most importantly, find a way to bring him under your command.

“Your actions in the past have already disappointed grandfather. If you can rope this person in, perhaps you can redeem yourself. After all, even if you do not make progress, if you can bring in a genius, that will still be merit.

“Do you understand?”

“…Yes.” Liu Yi nodded after remaining silent for a while.

“That’s good.” Hearing Liu Yi’s reply, Liu Jue’s expression softened as he said, “Don’t feel guilty about this; after all, this is a give-and-take relationship.

“If he works for you, you will be able to give him benefits; it will be good for both you and for him. You’d better act quickly before others find out about him, or else he might be taken by others.”

He stopped speaking and let his little sister think about it herself.

After a few moments, he and Liu Yi simultaneously raised their heads and looked to the side.

In the next moment, they said simultaneously, “Demonic qi!”

Sensing that unique feeling, their expressions greatly changed as they quickly left.

Elsewhere, Fang Jingxuan was walking on the street.

There was good weather today, as well as a weekend. She had come out with a few friends to stroll about.

After all, every person had social needs, and this was quite a normal day.

“It’s noon already, we should head back,” Kong Yi said looking at Fang Jingxuan.

“Alright.” Fang Jingxuan smiled and nodded.

They turned and prepared to leave.

At that moment, Fang Jingxuan sensed that something was off.

A wave of pressure spread over them.

In the distance, a big man wearing black clothes was slowly heading over.

He was incredibly tall and seemed to be at least two meters tall.

He was wearing a black military coat, and even though it was a warm day, he was still wearing so much.

What was quite disconcerting was that his pupils were violet-colored, looking quite devilish.

He walked over from the distance, staring fixedly at Fang Jingxuan with a terrifying gaze.

“Fang Lue’s… daughter…” he said with his eyes wide open as he slowly approached.

Fang Jingxuan instinctively retreated.

For some reason, she felt that this person gave off a terrifying pressure that made it difficult for her to summon any strength.

“Do you… know me?” she opened her mouth and asked.

However, the big man ignored her question and continued to walk forwards before punching out.

His massive fist contained a strange strength. He was incredibly fast, and facing this fist, Fang Jingxuan’s mind blanked out as she was directly sent flying backwards.

Blood spurted everywhere, covering the ground.

Fang Jingxuan collapsed onto the ground, and her abdomen caved in, with blood flowing out.

She opened her eyes, a look of disbelief within them.

She was not some weak girl; with Body Forging 80% strength, she was stronger than some teachers at school.

However, facing this man, she could not even block a single punch and was sent flying.

What kind of strength was this?

Body Forging Completion?

Her eyes widened.

She had seen martial artists with Body Forging Completion, but those people were not as strong as this person, and their auras could not compare to his either.

“He’s already attacked.”

Liu Jue and Liu Xin arrived, and seeing this, they let out sighs of relief, “Fortunately, no one has died, nor is it a true demon.”

The two of them could be considered professionals when it came to demons; they could tell at a glance if there was a demon.

There was not a demon possessing this middle-aged man’s body; he was only tainted by demonic qi, causing his personality to change.

Under the influence of demonic qi, one’s negative emotions would be amplified. Ordinary people could not bear it at all and would often do various things as a result.

Looking at the girl on the ground, Liu Yi was about to act, but she was stopped by Liu Jue.

“Wait.”

He looked into the distance and saw a young man hurrying over, “Let that boy act first. It will let us see what his strength is like.”

“So something happened in the end?” Chen Heng thought to himself.

He had thought that nothing would happen, but he was proven wrong.

It was just that the incident was a bit different to his previous life.

If Chen Heng remembered correctly, it was a group of people who were just ordinary robbers.

However, the person in this incident was a martial artist.

“He’s a bit stronger than expected, but I should still be able to deal with him.”

On the way, Chen Heng was estimating his target’s strength.

Different from the simulation world, his current strength was only at Body Forging Completion.

Even though it was quite good in the Lin City, it was not that strong, so he still had to be careful.

If this person’s strength surpassed anything he could take, he would immediately leave without any hesitation.

However, fortunately, it seemed that even though this person was powerful, it was not beyond his capabilities.

He did not need to defeat him either; he just needed to stall for time.

After all, this was in the city, and as long as Chen Heng could buy some time, the government’s people would soon arrive.

Thinking to there, Chen Heng resolved himself and quickly approached.

As he thought to himself, his aura greatly changed, making him seem like an unsheathed blade that gave off a cold glow.

Ahead, the man seemed to sense something and slowly turned.
