Chapter 1234: Chapter 769 Absolute Power

As soon as Zhan Bingxue received the message, two stunningly beautiful maidservants soon escorted a man and a woman toward the small bar area.

Chu Mo’s gaze shifted towards the two individuals, only to find that one was a middle-aged man with a full beard, and the other was a youthful girl in her twenties.

According to the information Chu Mo had investigated beforehand, the middle-aged man should be Yu Le, who deals in system tool Heart Jade, and the girl following him should be his only daughter, Yu Wenjing.

Even now, Chu Mo still couldn’t unravel the true identity of the man before him; whether he had acquired the system artifact by chance, or if he was a hidden system heir himself.

If it were the former, the man would naturally be of no significant concern, but if it were the latter…

The emergence of another system heir would mean that in this world, he was not the only person with a system; the other party would be an existence that could stand on equal footing with him.

While Chu Mo sized up the father-daughter duo, they were also curiously observing him. Subsequently, the middle-aged man took two steps forward and suddenly flashed a toothy grin, his pearly whites giving him an incredibly sinister look.

“Mr. Chu, I presume. I’ve long admired your reputation.”

As soon as the man’s words fell, he suddenly took another step forward.

With just one step, the whole floor emitted a dull sound as if there was an earthquake. The entire building of the Tianxiangyuan Grand Hotel trembled slightly, and while a few of the maidservants behind Chu Mo showed a look of horror, the middle-aged man walked to the bar with complete composure.

When the man reached the bar and casually picked up a bottle of premium brandy, Chu Mo’s eyes stayed fixed on the footprint the man had just left behind.

The step the man took had left a three-finger-deep footprint on the normally solid ground of Dali City.

Just how much strength was needed to leave such a footprint on the hard ground, enough to make the whole building slightly shake?

The power contained in that footstep, if it were to strike an ordinary person, would likely send them flying. At the very least, a martial artist below the level of a Great Grandmaster simply couldn’t possess such terrifying strength.

This means that the unkempt middle-aged man before him, even if he wasn’t a system heir, was at least a Grandmaster-level expert, not to be underestimated.

Chu Mo’s gaze casually swept over the girl beside him and quickly retracted. He turned to the bar, gracefully took a seat beside the middle-aged man, and then smiled and said:

“Brother Yu, I have an item here, and I’d like for Brother Yu to take a look.”

With those light words, Chu Mo gestured subtly, and the next moment, a delicate wooden box was presented carefully by a maidservant. As Chu Mo nodded slightly, the maidservant gently opened the wooden box, and immediately, a strange fragrance wafted in the air.

Chu Mo kept his gaze fixed on the middle-aged man before him, trying to discern some information from his expression.

However, to his puzzlement, upon seeing an Immortal Fruit before him, the middle-aged man merely sniffed it without showing any other reaction. Instead, it was the girl Yu Wenjing behind him who suddenly let out a small gasp of surprise.

Chu Mo, seeing the reactions of the father and daughter before him, was momentarily confused about their true identities.

The middle-aged man before him was clearly extraordinary, powerful, and according to Chu Mo’s speculation, he could very well be a system heir. However, the man’s reaction upon seeing the system artifact, the Immortal Fruit, was excessively bland.

This forced Chu Mo to doubt whether the man was actually a system heir, or if his system was different from his own, or even if every system heir’s system was unique?

As Chu Mo silently contemplated, the middle-aged man across from him suddenly slapped his hand on the bar. As the man nonchalantly lifted his palm away, a clear handprint had formed on the bar.

But this time, Chu Mo clearly saw that there was no fluctuation of spiritual power emanating from the man.

In other words, the man relied solely on physical strength to leave a one-finger-deep handprint on the sturdy bar.

Such power would be completely unachievable even by a real Great Grandmaster.

It is known that Great Grandmasters are formidable not because of their physical bodies, but because they possess an unending supply of Innate True Qi within them. Typically, a Great Grandmaster would envelop their entire body with Innate True Qi before striking, and even a low-level Great Grandmaster could shatter rock with a gentle slap under its enhancement.

Yet what was strange was that the middle-aged man before him did not use any Innate True Qi or higher-grade Spiritual Power; he had caused such terrifying destruction purely with the strength of his own body.

That was what truly puzzled Chu Mo.

How strong must one’s body be to cause such terrifying destruction?

At least, an ordinary Great Grandmaster, even if they had sufficient bodily strength, would probably only possess such fearsome power without using Innate True Qi if they were among the upper echelons of the Great Grandmasters.

Chu Mo’s eyes flickered.

Was the man before him an upper-echelon Great Grandmaster with immense strength or a system heir…!
