Chapter 250: The Value of a Grandmaster

“Number one on the Heaven Roll?”

Tang Yifei murmured to herself as what happened in the Green Vines club kept on playing out in her head. Chen Fan had flicked a finger and killed the sharpshooters. In the end, not even his clothes were soiled in the slightest. Tang Yifei felt that Chen Fan was nothing but he surprised her.

Chen Fan, he was the heir of the Chen family in Jin City, Master Chen of Jiang Bei, Transcendent Grandmaster.

However, Tang Yifei had never thought that she would have underestimated Chen Fan’s power yet again. He had set her back on her heels with his incredible power. Even the Tang family had to be careful when he was around. However powerful Hua Yunfeng was, he only took the fourth spot on the Heaven roll. How powerful exactly was the boy at the top spot?

“He is the most powerful man in China.”

Seventh Lord Huang exclaimed.

Like anything else, the t.i.tle of the champion was always much harder to obtain than the second best or the third. Since Chen Fan had claimed the top spot on the Heaven Roll and was considered the most powerful Grandmaster in China, his status must not be lower than that of the richest man in China.

“No wonder… He killed Sheng Ronghua and slaughtered the entire Sheng family, yet nothing had happened to him.”

Chen Xiao said to himself.

“Hehe, What is Sheng Ronghua to a Grandmaster.” Tang Yuanqin snorted. “He could handle a few more Sheng families at the same time. The bottom line is that the Chinese Government is not going to offend a powerful Grandmaster over the death of a small family. Look what happened to Gao Tianmin. He wanted to indict Chen Fan for his crime, but was fired by his boss.”

Tang Yuanqin didn’t know that Chen Fan was the Head sergeant of the Cang Dragon, otherwise, he would be even more impressed by Chen Fan.

Rich businessmen such as Sheng Ronghua were everywhere in China, however, there could only be one number one Grandmaster on the Heaven Roll. Every Grandmaster had to earn their spot using hard work, sweat, talent, and luck. A Grandmaster meant much more than wealthy men with over a billion yuan in a.s.sets. Ye Nantian, for example, had trained the Dragon Fang unit and pushed it to the top three list of the International special Law Enforcement units.

In addition, Chen Fan’s Cang Dragon Physical Conditioning Exercise and Physique Refining Pill were able to help the Chinese military produce countless super soldiers. The Physique Refining Pill was still under development, and once it was able to be ma.s.s-produced, it’s significance was no less than inventing a new kind of long-range missile.

The other Grandmasters also had their own contributions to the nation.

Hua Yunfeng had been helping China defend countless foreign influences attempts. Zhong Hai was the biggest city in China and was considered China’s window to the world. However, there were often dark currents stirred up by the international criminal world. Hua Yunfeng was able to quell these disturbances and defend the peaceful life of the citizens.

Therefore, Chen Fan never worried about any consequences for slaughtering the entire Sheng family. A nation only considered self-benefits and interests, and keeping an amicable relations.h.i.+p with Chen Fan was much more beneficial than being on a Grandmaster’s bad side.

Tang Yifei, Seventh Lord Huang and Chen Xiao kept their silence.

They were so shocked by the revelation that they would forever look at the world with a fresh new perspective. In the old world, the power of a nation needed to be taken seriously. Although they operated in the grey area of society, they needed to obey the laws set by the country.

However, in the new world, they just discovered that Grandmasters were above the law. They could kill an entire family clan without worrying about the consequences. And this was the true color of the world. At the end of the day, everyone only cared about self-interest, that extends to the nations in the world as well.

“From today onward, no one in the Tang family is allowed to offend Master Chen. Otherwise, I will chop him up and feed him to the fish in the Jin City River!” Tang Yuanqin announced.

“Yes, Lord Tang”

Everyone bowed respectfully.

They would have obliged their family lord’s order even without being told the true power of a Grandmaster, although their reply wouldn’t be nearly as sincere and fearful as it was now. They had finally understood that Chen Fan wouldn’t even care to waste his time on them. They were too insignificant in his eyes. Neither would the government indict him, risking a bad relations.h.i.+p with the most important a.s.set of the nation. Even Tang Yuanqin had to apologize to Chen Fan for a small run-in.

A pang of despair gripped Tang Yifei

If Chen Fan was truly so powerful, she doubted that she would ever free herself from the Yi Wood Spirit Qi.

“Dad, so the government just lets these Grandmasters do whatever they want?”

Tang Yifei asked hotly.

“Of course not. Although Grandmasters are powerful, they have to give the authority some degree of respect. After all, not even a thousand Grandmasters are able to hold themselves against an army. Plus, there are still those other guys in China who could counter them.”

“Who?” Tang Yifei paused.

Fear flashed across Tang Yuanqin’s face, and he kept the answer to himself.

Since the National Day holiday was coming, Chen Fan wanted to wrap up some tasks at hand, so he could make use of the holiday to visit Hong Kong. He went to the Jin City University and inspected the progress of the lab. Xiao Xue had been working round the clock trying to set the lab up, and she had lost a few kilograms of weight. Chen Fan gave her a bottle of Yun Wu Spirit Water for her to recuperate. If the a.s.sistant knew that she was getting a hundred thousand yuan a bottle supplement, she would be so moved by her boss that she would start to tear up. On the black market, the price of one bottle of the Spirit Water was even a few times higher than that.
