21 Confrontation (1/2)
Chapter 20: Confrontation
After about a month, Van had broken through to the peak of the 10th Stage of Dantian Formation. He had taken advantage of the complimentary cultivation resources and had been constantly absorbing Qi. He would've broken through a week ago if he had wanted to, but decided to accumulate the Qi and solidify his foundation.
Van hadn't left the Presidential Suite in the past month, worried about the trio outside. He could already imagine their flaming eyes as they tried to rip him apart. Van shuddered at the thought and ordered a meal from room service.
A maid quickly delivered the meal to Van. He had ordered a meal of steamed rice with a side of roast pork seasoned with soy sauce. After enjoying the meal, Van laid down on the bed to read. He pulled out the first volume of ”Dragon Breaks the Void” and contemplated it while sipping some Green Jade Tea. Besides the breakthrough to the 10th Stage and the more recent one to the peak of the 10th stage, Van had also reached Medium Success in his Void Fist a week into the journey.
Sadly, Van had been trying to grasp the basics of High Success for the past 3 weeks without any success.
”What if my approach on this is wrong? Maybe I need to use it in combat more so I could better apply it to my combat style.”
Van started to find ways to find monsters to fight. Fighting against wooden puppets just didn't feel quite the same.
”Wait, I can just fight the trio outside! They only have cultivation bases at the 3rd Stage of Dantian Formation. If I get into any trouble, I could just raise my cultivation base by a small realm!”
An evil grin surfaced on Van's face. He was a respectable expert at the 10th Stage of Dantian Formation. If anyone of the Senior generation knew what he was thinking, they would have started condemning him for ages to come.
After washing up, he decided to walk out and confront the inevitable. Sanji squeaked his regards and started to enjoy the comfort of the Suite while Van was gone.
Van calmly marched outside to the nearby refreshments and grabbed a glass of juice from a 10-year-old Green Spirit Pear. The subordinates of the trio were watching him with every step and sent a transmission through their jade slips to their respective masters.
A muscled youth stood up in his suite and started working out, in preparation for battle.
A young fairy maiden got dressed into a stylish combat dress that was rather tight-fitting.
Finally, an arrogant, but rather dashing, young master burst out of his suite dashing towards the refreshments in search of Van.
”I finally found you! The bastard that dared to steal my suite.”
Ye Shui of the Ye Clan was ready to give this newcomer a lesson to never forget. He sneered as he watched the youth calmly enjoy his glass of fruit juice. Despite his arrogance and rather rude nature, he wasn't dull enough to ruin his already negative reputation by attacking this youth out of nowhere.
Ye Shui had gotten his subordinates to access the databases for any sign of this youth's background. He found out that this youth was just some promising so-called genius from Mulberry City. Ye Shui smiled viciously as he thought of all the ways he would teach this youth a lesson.
Van looked at the young master's changing expression. Was this youth dropped on his head when he was little? He seemed to be in his own world at the moment and Van started to become worried. Van waved a hand across Ye Shui's eyes just in case. Seeing no reaction, he was about to call a Light Attributed Martial Artist over when Yu Chao ran in throwing Ye Shui to the side.
Ye Shui's head bounced on the wall with a big crunch and his body crumpled on the floor. Van now knew the reason for his slow wit and wryly smiled watching the rather unnatural scene before him. Some nearby girls squealed with delight as they saw the freshly oiled muscles on Yu Chao's body.
”Yu Chao! You should stop abusing Ye Shui, you've already hit him in the head too many times when we were little.”
Ye Shui was quietly crying in the corner. He had endured the torment from Yu Chao for too long. His family had to spend much money on Spiritual Medicines to restore his mental health back. Of course, Yu Chao continued his abuse and Ye Shui's mental condition hadn't restored back to normal yet.
