Chapter 151: Chapter 151 Invitation
The Sky-Piercing Colossal Finger descended, Huang Tianba turned into an ice sculpture, and the video feed abruptly stopped.
Xiao Yun stared at the screen in silence for a while before he slowly spoke, "This kid’s strength, I’m afraid, might even surpass mine."
The two people beside him were both shocked.
War King Wei Cheng spoke up, "Boss, you reached the fourth layer of the Transformation Realm half a year ago, while this Chen Fan is just in his twenties. Even if he is monstrously talented, he couldn’t be more powerful than you, could he?"
Hu Feng, who was standing next to him, chimed in, "Huang Tianba was at most at the second layer of the Transformation Realm in terms of strength. Even if Chen Fan defeated him, it only proves that the kid is a bit stronger than the second layer."
Xiao Yun smiled, "You two are only at the peak of the Grandmaster Realm, so you can’t see the nuances. I can assert that Chen Fan killed Huang Tianba without even using his full strength."
"This kid, in his twenties, has reached such a terrifying realm; with this kind of talent, I’m afraid he’s on par with Wei Wuwei from back in the day."
"This kid is indeed impressive, but Wei Wuwei is a legend in the War Zone. Isn’t it a bit too much to compare the two?" Wei Cheng said.
Xiao Yun’s face was filled with emotion, "I know Wei Wuwei’s achievements are something one can only look up to, but give Chen Fan some time, and he might well become the next Wei Wuwei."
Wei Cheng and Hu Feng exchanged glances, with deep astonishment in their eyes.
Xiao Yun glanced at them, "Such talent, if he could join our Jiangbei War Zone, would surely bring endless benefits to the entire war zone."
"You two arrange it. In a couple of days, host a banquet and invite Chen Fan to attend."
"Yes!" Wei Cheng and Hu Feng answered in unison.
Xiao Yun then asked, "By the way, how have you two been doing recently? Confident about breaking through?"
Both men showed a hint of helplessness.
Hu Feng said, "Boss, you know how difficult the path of Martial Arts is. Neither of us have talent like yours, and there’s a heaven-and-earth divide between the Grandmaster realm and the Transformation Realm. Reaching our current level is already a favor from God, and going any further is down to luck."
Xiao Yun nodded, "Don’t force it, just let nature take its course."
"How about Su Hao these days? If I’ve calculated correctly, he should be about to leave Jiangbei and report to Dragon Soul, right?"
Wei Cheng said with a smile, "This kid has been acting strangely lately, practicing hard every day, and he even made a Great Achievement in Internal Strength not long ago."
Xiao Yun’s eyes lit up, "Although he’s quite inferior compared to Chen Fan, he is still a rare martial arts prodigy. Invite him to the banquet as well. If Chen Fan could give him some guidance, that would be perfect."
"Understood," Wei Cheng nodded.
...
Two days later.
A scent of elixirs wafted from the Hillside Villa before quickly dissipating.
In the living room, Chen Fan watched with a smile as ten Breakthrough Pills were placed into a jade bottle, showing a satisfied smile.
"The quality of the Breakthrough Pills is a bit higher than the Gathering Yuan Pills, and they are divine pills useful for breakthroughs. Having ten of them is already quite remarkable."
He put away the jade bottle, stood up, stretched lazily, and then went to take a shower in the bathroom.
Meanwhile, on the road leading to the Hillside Villa, a military green off-road vehicle approached.
The driver was a burly man with a square face and a fierce appearance, one of Wei Cheng’s subordinates, named Xue Gang, a master of the Great Achievement in Internal Strength.
Sitting in the passenger seat was a slim and delicate woman dressed in military attire, with a heroic look in her eyes.
This person was the instructor Yang Lan.
Yang Lan curiously looked out the window, "This Yunwu Villas is indeed as magical as the legends say, with eternal spring. Just entering here, I feel much more comfortable all over."
Xue Gang nodded in agreement.
Yang Lan suddenly asked with a bit of gossip, "Who is this Chen Fan, and why is he given so much importance? Ordinarily, a banquet in the War Zone would have people fighting to attend just for an invitation, yet this time, we have to personally extend the invitation."
Xue Gang shook his head, "I’m not sure. All I know is that this Chen Fan seems to be a master."
"A master? Isn’t Chen Fan just in his twenties? No matter how powerful he is, could he be more powerful than you?" Yang Lan said skeptically.
"I think this Chen Fan must be someone with connections. The War God Xiao showed him face, that’s why we were asked to come invite him. Look at that Hillside Villa, it’s way too luxurious. It’s said to be worth a billion. Ordinary folks couldn’t afford a place like that."
Xue Gang quite agreed, "Most likely that’s the case."
The two parked the car in front of the villa and walked up to the door to ring the bell.
After pressing it several times, nobody came to open the door.
"Could it be there’s nobody home?" Yang Lan frowned.
Xue Gang said, "That shouldn’t be, the property management staff said Chen Fan was home."
Yang Lan complained, "Then this guy is way too arrogant, isn’t he? We’ve been waiting here so long and he still won’t open the door. Who does he think he is? I really don’t understand why the higher-ups would invite someone like him to the banquet."
Xue Gang’s brow furrowed slightly, "We have no choice, it’s an order from above."
It was a good while later when Chen Fan finally appeared wearing a bathrobe, drying his hair with a towel as he opened the door.
Upon seeing Chen Fan’s appearance, Yang Lan’s eyes widened, "Don’t tell me you just got up? It’s already afternoon!"
Chen Fan looked bewildered, sizing up the two people in front of him, "Who are you guys?"
Yang Lan was getting annoyed. She felt this guy was definitely one of those spoiled second-generation rich kids who partied all night, "Can’t you tell by our uniforms? Seriously, I’m fed up. War God Xiao must have lost his mind to have us come invite you."
Xue Gang, also unimpressed by Yang Lan’s poor impression of Chen Fan, said bluntly, "We’re from the War Zone, here to invite you to a banquet. If you want to go, hurry up and change. No dilly-dallying."
Chen Fan was speechless.
He could tell these two were indeed from the War Zone, but even so, did they have to be so aggressive in their approach?
Doesn’t everyone have a temper?
With a gloomy expression, he glanced at the two, "Not interested."
He then shut the door and went back inside.
Yang Lan and Xue Gang were stunned.
They had never seen anyone dare to refuse an invitation from the War Zone before.
Yang Lan was so angry her chest heaved, "This guy is really too arrogant. Who gave him the nerve to treat us this way?"
Xue Gang snorted coldly, "It seems you were right, this guy really is a relation bureaucrat."
"What do we do now?" asked Yang Lan.
"No matter who he’s connected to in the background, he doesn’t have the right to treat War Zone personnel like that. Call him out, I’m going to teach him a lesson on behalf of his elders!" Xue Gang spoke up.
Yang Lan’s eyes lit up, "Good!"
She then began frantically pressing the doorbell.
Chen Fan, exasperated, opened the villa’s door, "Is this going to end or not? I already said I’m not interested in your banquet."
Xue Gang curled his lip, "You think you can just reject an invitation from the War Zone? Do you really think War Zone folks are that easy to bully?"
As he spoke, he reached out to grab Chen Fan, intending to drag him out of the villa.
Chen Fan’s expression turned icy.
These two had been nothing but brazen since they arrived, and now they even wanted to get physical.
He felt there was no need to show any courtesy now.
The instant Xue Gang’s hand was about to grab Chen Fan, Chen Fan swiftly stepped to the side, then kicked Xue Gang’s stomach.
Bang!
Xue Gang’s body flew backwards, crashing to the ground a dozen meters away.
