Erina stared at his back for a few more seconds.
She could feel a strange aura from the man standing before her. Calm. Steady. As if the situation in this corridor posed no danger at all. She simply replied shortly, “As long as… you don’t kill them.” The corner of Fang Zhe’s lips lifted slightly. “That’s enough… to test my abilities.” The three men in black suits exchanged glances. Then one of them snorted coldly. “Take action? Who does this kid think he is?” The largest man stepped forward first. He was nearly two meters tall, the muscles beneath his suit clearly visible. He raised his massive hand, aiming to grab Fang Zhe by the collar. His movement was fast. But… Fang Zhe moved first. There was no exaggerated motion. Just a small step to the side. The large hand passed through empty air. In that same split second, Fang Zhe had already twisted his waist. BAM! His palm struck the man’s elbow from the side. “AAARGH!” The man’s elbow joint bent in an unnatural direction. His body spun halfway around from the force. Before he could fall— Fang Zhe had already stepped forward. A short punch landed squarely in his abdomen. BOOM! The air burst out of the man’s lungs like a punctured balloon. His massive body lifted slightly off the ground before dropping to his knees, gasping. “Ughhh!” All of it happened within two seconds. The other two men’s expressions instantly changed. “Damn it!” Seeing their companion collapse, the second man attacked from the side with a straight punch aimed at Fang Zhe’s face. But Fang Zhe didn’t even turn his head. He simply raised one hand. PAK! He caught the attacker’s wrist mid-air with perfect precision. Then— CRACK! He twisted it slightly. The man screamed immediately as his body was forced to rotate due to the joint lock. “A-akhhh!” Fang Zhe pulled him closer— —and drove his knee upward. DUG! His knee slammed into the man’s chin. The man’s head snapped back, his eyes instantly going blank. His body dropped to the floor like a sack of sand. Only one remained. The third man stepped back half a step, his face turning pale. “Don’t come closer! O-or I’ll use this knife!” He pulled out a folding knife from his pocket, the blade glinting under the corridor lights. But Fang Zhe showed no concern. He continued walking forward slowly. “If you surrender now,” he said calmly, “you can still walk away.” Seeing Fang Zhe continue to advance, the man roared in anger and lunged forward, the knife thrusting straight toward his chest. The movement was fast. But in Fang Zhe’s eyes… it was strangely slow. He tilted his body slightly, letting the blade pass by the side of his suit. At the same time, his hand moved like lightning. PAK! He grabbed the man’s wrist. Then— Fang Zhe’s body turned halfway, his shoulder pulling the opponent forward in a clean throwing motion. BRAK! The man’s body slammed hard onto the marble floor, the knife flying out of his hand. But Fang Zhe wasn’t done. He pinned the man’s arm to the ground with his knee, then pressed down on his shoulder joint. CREAK! The man screamed instantly. “AAARGH! STOP!” Fang Zhe stopped. He slowly stood up, glancing at the three men now lying on the corridor floor. One clutching his broken elbow. One unconscious. And the last trembling in pain, holding his shoulder. The atmosphere fell into silence. Only their heavy breathing could be heard. At the same time, Fang Zhe casually adjusted his suit collar, as if he had just finished a trivial task. Then he turned to Erina. “Sorry, Boss. I hope this doesn’t count as causing trouble.” Erina still stood in place, her eyes fixed on the three men who were no longer able to stand. Then her gaze shifted back to Fang Zhe. Her expression had changed. It was no longer just the look of someone evaluating a bodyguard. There was something else in her eyes. Clear admiration… and a deeper curiosity. She walked toward him slowly. The sound of her heels echoed softly on the marble floor. “Fang Zhe.” “Yes, Boss.” Erina stopped right in front of him. The distance between them was now very close. She studied his face for a few seconds. “You’re truly impressive…” Her voice was low, almost like a whisper of admiration. But before Fang Zhe could respond— CLICK. The VIP room door behind them suddenly opened. Hurried footsteps followed. Young Master Brata appeared at the doorway. At first, his face still carried a look of irritation. Clearly, he had come out to see whether his men had “escorted” Erina back. But the moment his eyes saw the corridor— His expression froze. His three trusted guards lay on the floor. One clutching a twisted elbow. One unconscious. Another trembling with a dislocated shoulder. As the reality sank in, Young Master Brata’s face gradually turned pale. “This… what happened…?” His eyes moved from one body to another, then stopped on Fang Zhe. The young man stood calmly. His suit remained neat. Even his hair wasn’t disturbed in the slightest. As if the chaos had nothing to do with him. Fang Zhe looked at him calmly. There was no anger on his face—only an unsettling composure. That alone made Young Master Brata swallow hard. He knew exactly who those three men were. They weren’t ordinary guards. They were former street fighters specially recruited by the Brata family. Usually, one of them was enough to make ten men back down. But now… They couldn’t even stand. Young Master Brata’s gaze began to waver. “Y-you… did you do this?” Fang Zhe didn’t answer immediately. He simply took one step forward. The movement was slow… But enough to make Young Master Brata unconsciously step back half a step. Only then did Fang Zhe stop. He adjusted the cuff of his suit with an elegant motion, then looked straight at the young master. His tone was polite. “Young Master Brata.” Fang Zhe slightly lowered his head. His demeanor was even refined. “I believe today’s meeting is already over.” The corridor fell silent again. Young Master Brata didn’t respond. A thin layer of sweat formed on his temple. Then Fang Zhe continued in the same calm tone. “So…” He raised an eyebrow slightly. “May we leave now?”Latest Chapter

Wuuuush!The echo of the night wind slowly swept away the remaining dense purple aura left behind by the Second Prince’s envoy. Fang Zhe still stood tall upon the concrete rooftop, gazing at the silent night sky of Khong City. The dark red silk scroll embroidered with gold was now in his grasp; he squeezed it lightly before casually tossing it into his storage ring with utter indifference."A threat, huh? Interesting," Fang Zhe murmured, a faint, cynical smile etching itself onto his handsome face."The Second Prince... we shall see just how long the necks of those hidden cultivators of yours are if they dare disturb my peace."Diiiing!Suddenly, a crisp chiming sound broke the silence within Fang Zhe’s mind. The mechanical voice, far too familiar and long-awaited, finally echoed, bringing an invisible ripple of energy that soothed the soul.[System Notification: Hidden Mission 'Absolute Destruction of the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion' Has Been Declared a Success!][Mission Evaluation: P

Fang Zhe’s body flashed like an illusory shadow, melting into the night wind and vanishing from the sight of the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion's higher-ups, who were still prostrated and trembling in fear.Within a mere fraction of a second, Fang Zhe was already outside the building, standing tall on the roof of a high-rise structure that directly faced the window of the VIP room from earlier. His pair of golden eyes flashed sharply, instantly locking onto a silhouette clad in pitch-black attire that was darting swiftly across the rooftops of Khong City."Decent movement. But before me, you are nothing more than a turtle," Fang Zhe murmured with a faint smirk."Thousand Lightning Steps!"Sreeeet!Fang Zhe stomped his foot. A surge of pure Qi, coated with a thin remnant of the ice element, exploded beneath his footing, propelling his body forward with a speed that triggered a small sonic boom.The man in black realized that his presence had been exposed. Sensing a wave of wind pressure app

Fang Zhe glanced at the Grand Master with a cold smirk."...he is nothing more than a piece of trash counting down his final breaths."Hearing Fang Zhe’s bone-chilling words and seeing the glint of ice swirling once again at the youth's fingertips, the Grand Master’s mental state shattered completely. The sheer terror of an instant death without the chance of reincarnation made him forget every last shred of pride he possessed.In his mind right now, surrendering the Heaven's Fortune Pavilion was his only ticket to keep breathing. To hell with the underworld throne! To hell with Han Ling, who was already a corpse! Let alone seeking revenge, the Grand Master swore that for the rest of his life, he would never want to touch or cross paths with this monster in the guise of a youth named Fang Zhe ever again."Q-Quickly...! What are you waiting for, you fools?!" the Grand Master roared at the dozen directors and core managers who were still frozen in shock. His voice pitched into a hysteri

Wuuuuuush!A bone-chilling, ice-cold aura suddenly erupted from Fang Zhe’s body, instantly sweeping away any remaining warmth inside the VIP room.Hearing such a casual yet horrifying admission, the Grand Master felt as though his heart had been bludgeoned by a giant mace. His brain throbbed painfully, forced to process information that completely defied his sense of logic."K-Killed him...?! You killed Han Ling?!" the Grand Master roared, his voice pitching into a frustrated, high-spirited shriek filled with absolute denial. "Liar! You must be bluffing! That is impossible!"The Grand Master shook his head wildly, his breathing turning shallower and more erratic behind his luxurious mask. He truly could not bring himself to believe a single word that came out of the young man’s mouth."Han Ling was no ordinary cultivator! He was an unmatched genius who had already stepped into the peak of the Spirit Gathering Realm! At his young age, he was a monster feared throughout the territories

The hidden barrel at the tip of General Guan’s spear spat a bullet that roared furiously, ripping through the air with a velocity impossible for an ordinary mortal to evade.At the exact same time, the Grand Master, having completely lost his sanity, refused to be left behind. With a frenzied roar, his finger pulled the trigger of his pure gold revolver in rapid succession.BANG! BANG!Three golden bullets shot straight out, tearing through the remnants of the green velvet table, driving directly toward Fang Zhe’s forehead and heart.The distance between them was far too close, and the speed of those bullets was blindingly fast. Anyone in that position should have been obliterated into shreds of flesh within a matter of milliseconds.Yet, amid the storm of gunpowder and the deafening blasts of gunfire... Fang Zhe remained seated in absolute composure.He did not so much as blink behind his silver mask. His body leaned back casually in the grand master-chair, one hand still lazily prop

Fang Zhe halted the movement of his hand, which had been resting on the chips. Behind his minimalist silver mask, his eyes flashed with an amusement that was as playful as it was cold. He did not break General Guan’s tight grip on his forearm, choosing instead to simply leave it be."Wagering your lives now that your money has run out?" Fang Zhe chuckled softly, a sound that was utterly relaxed yet dripping with contempt. "Fascinating. This will certainly save me a lot of time cleaning up this place. Very well, I accept your trash wager."Upon hearing Fang Zhe's agreement, General Guan slowly withdrew his hand. The general exhaled a heavy breath, exhaling a military Qi aura that was incredibly solid and oppressive. At the far end of the table, the Grand Master remained silent, but the cylinder of his golden revolver cycled once more with a rhythmic clicking sound, signaling that he too consented to this madness as a final move to turn the tides."Dealer... deal the final cards," the G
