It was obvious that Su Yu was finding trouble for Ren Jie when he stopped him in his tracks just now. Many people came to watch the commotion immediately.

These instances were very popular within the Jade Imperial Academy. After all, those watching from the sidelines would not be worried if the issue blew out of hand. Moreover, most of the students in the Jade Imperial Academy were good-for-nothings.

However, everyone was stunned then. That was because everything happened too fast. No one could have imagined that Ren Jie would not hide. He avoided talking to Su Yu and simply ordered the spiritual beast carriage to knock them over. There was not even a chance for them to counter-attack.

In the worst-case scenario, that crash could even have caused some deaths. If a spiritual beast really escaped bondage and went crazy, even ordinary cultivators in the Divine Power Realm could not tame it. Thus, people would usually avoid those who were using spiritual beast carriages.

They were unguarded when they stood near that carriage only because it belonged to Ren Jie. No one expected him to be so… ferocious today.

What was even more shocking was that Ren Jie simply threw some gold checks and left after he knocked people into the air.

Left… He left…

That was simply too… too unbelievable. That rascal actually…

That demeanor and attitude were way more arrogant than if he had come out and beaten someone or if he had ordered his servants to engage in a fight. When did Ren Jie actually… actually become that cool?

Those watching from the sidelines were stunned. One of Su Yu’s sidekicks who was not severely injured did not think through his actions properly. He happily chose to pick the gold checks up instead of helping Su Yu up as others did.

“Young Master, this is…”

“F*ck! You f*cking son of a b*tch. Did you just pick up the money? Is the Su family short of that little money? How dare you pick it up. Splat…” Su Yu was hurting profusely from the impact. At that moment, his sidekick actually did such a thing. Su Yu was burning with anger. In that split second, he vented all his anger on that guy. The pain caused tears to well up in his eyes. As he stood up with the support of his sidekicks, he kicked that guy into the air and berated him furiously.

In the end, his moment of anger implicated the injury on his chest causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood. That frightened his sidekicks and they carried him away to heal his wounds immediately.

Concurrently, Ren Jie was lying on his carriage. His mood turned for the better. It looked like having an outburst was indeed an effective way to de-stress, just like his outburst in front of the elders when he first arrived at that universe.

Now that he had become Ren Jie and was a member of the pampered children circle, he was definitely not going to allow himself to be bullied, and neither would he allow himself to become a failure.

If he did want to be bullied or become a failure, that meant that he had to be even more pampered than the other pampered kids. He had the capacity to do so. The previous Ren Jie did not know how to take advantage of that, but he was definitely not going to be like him.

“That’s sick, Uncle Beast.” As Ren Jie recalled what had happened earlier, he felt relieved and satisfied, and he was also thankful for how supportive Uncle Beast was.

He followed his orders without any hesitation and had done an excellent job handling the matter appropriately.

Ren Jie had no recollections of previous interactions with Uncle Beast. He used to his father Ren Tianxing’s chauffeur. The spiritual beast carriage was hard to control. Because of this unique characteristic, Uncle Beast had a special status within the family clan.

Ren Tianxing had made it clear in the past that Uncle Beast was merely responsible for controlling spiritual beast carriages and was only accountable to the family head. Therefore, he did not need to bother about anyone else in the Ren family other than the family head.

Moreover, Uncle Beast never spoke. He wore a gigantic hat and was always resting by the spiritual beast carriage when he had nothing to do. The previous Ren Jie had tried communicating with Uncle Beast, but there was no success. He never responded even if he tried to invite him to a meal, gave him anything or tried speaking to him.

Sick? The spiritual beast carriage was gradually approaching Ren Jie’s accommodation. As he maneuvered the carriage, Uncle Beast thought to himself, What is ‘sick’?

He still did not speak. However, as he recalled the scene earlier, a surprised yet slightly happy smile crept up his face under the large straw hat. That should be the way the Ren family head behaves, he thought.

Uncle Beast did not respond to him. Ren Jie did not pester Uncle Beast with his words. When he alighted from the carriage, he urged Uncle Beast to have a rest in a polite manner. Meanwhile, he stepped into his accommodation that took four months to complete construction.

He had chosen a plot of land and built his own accommodation within the academy. That was unconventional and notorious even within the Jade Imperial Academy, where the students were known for being pampered. Ren Jie remembered that the original Ren Jie was reprimanded by the elders for eight hours because of that incident.

Of course, he remembered clearly that the person who encouraged him to build a house in such a remote area was his companion, “Master” Gao Ren. He had a silver tongue and had talked him into doing so.

“Big Brother, you’re finally back. You’ve broken the record this time around. Those elders are way too tenacious. It’s been two days and one night. Did they really cut your expenses again this time? That sucks. If it’s cut again, what am I supposed to do for my research? Will we have to starve if this continues?” That fatty had approached him just when he was thinking of him.
