Chapter 211: 【177】Grasping Power, Trampling the Abyss, Vitality Evolution (Seeking monthly tickets, recommendations, and support)_1

“Boss, they’re all dead… all of them are dead…”

“Those Transcendents couldn’t even withstand a single encounter, they all died…”

“Xiong Qi is now kneeling before me, begging for mercy…”

“Boss, am I dreaming?”

…

Old Wei’s words echoed in Cai Weiqian’s ears.

By the time he arrived at the Ma Gang Headquarters, Xiong Qi, who once held a high position, was like a drowning man clutching at straws, crawling over on his knees, sobbing and begging with snot and tears.

His mouth had only one sentence, begging Boss Cai to spare his life.

When Cai Weiqian saw the limbs scattered all over the ground, he almost vomited out everything he had eaten at noon.

Old Wei came to his side and whispered, “Boss, the people have left. Two Transcendents came from the Ma Gang…”

“They’re all dead?” Cai Weiqian asked in surprise.

“One died inside. Another was taken away…” Old Wei whispered, “Boss, I’m truly relieved that it was our own person, otherwise… no matter how many men we sent, they would all die.”

“Did you get a clear look at what type of Transcendents they were?” Cai Weiqian pushed Xiong Qi away and asked in a low voice.

“No…” Old Wei said awkwardly, “I didn’t even see the person… The Ma Gang’s people had just appeared and were about to start a fight, but in the blink of an eye, one of them was dead, the other tried to run, but was blasted away, and then… he was gone…”

“…”

Cai Weiqian inhaled sharply.

Damn, such an awesome boss actually helped my Black Mountain Association clear out enemies.

Damn, it must be my ancestors’ blessing!

…

With the Ma Gang taken out, nearly all the gangs in Da Peng City were waiting for the Jiang family’s reaction.

But unexpectedly, the Jiang family remained completely silent.

Just as everyone was confused and uncertain, suddenly a rumor spread… the power behind the Black Mountain Association was actually the Jiang Family.

Not just the outsiders were shocked, Cai Weiqian too was astonished.

“Boss, is the Jiang family really behind us?” Old Wei asked curiously.

He didn’t even know when his boss had made contact with the Jiang family.

If there really was this connection, was there any need to be bullied by the Ma Gang previously?

“Don’t talk, I want to be alone.”

When Cai Weiqian was alone, he made a call to “Old Jia.”

However, the response he received was ambiguous.

“You shouldn’t concern yourself with matters you don’t need to worry about, you just need to know that the Jiang family won’t trouble you. If the sky falls, you won’t be the one to hold it up. Besides, the sky won’t fall, Yanwang has spoken.”

The call ended.

Cai Weiqian was silent for a long time.

Then he downed the strong liquor in his glass in one gulp.

“Damn it, who should I be afraid of in Da Peng City from now on!”

…

The Night Patrol Department mobilized, patrolling the streets, and promptly subdued many gangs that were ready to make a move, leaving them no choice but to watch helplessly as the Ma Gang was devoured by Boss Cai’s Black Mountain Association.

The silence of the Jiang family, coupled with the timely appearance of the Night Patrol Department, inevitably led people to suspect.

…

Amid the surging undercurrents.

Pei Jinye’s figure appeared nonchalantly on East Street.

The passing pedestrians and the noisy cries of vendors rolled from the south to the north like the tide.

The festive atmosphere of the surroundings enveloped Pei Jinye.

After Devouring two Transcendents, one from the Element Series and one from the Body Technique System, his Vitality Value among other attributes had significantly decreased, dropping back down to 19 points.

But Pei Jinye wasn’t worried.

With the resource supply from the Jiang family, recovery was a piece of cake.

What surprised him was that today’s Devour had indeed given him quite a pleasant surprise.

…

The attribute panel was updated:

Adding Extraordinary Ability 1: Element·Water Rocket;

Adding Extraordinary Ability: Water Arrow (can utilize Water Elements within a radius of three meters to form water arrows, the quantity depends on spiritual power)

Adding Extraordinary Ability 2: Body·Fury;

Adding Extraordinary Ability: Fury of the Berserker (when used, Vitality effects and explosive power are doubled)

Element Water Rocket is suitable for rainy days or battles near the sea.

Sly Little Trick +1.

As for Body·Fury, this Extraordinary Ability is deeply beloved.

Pei Jinye felt it out slightly.

The Vitality just needed a slight shock and it caused the air around his body to burst into a roar.

Passersby on the road were all baffled, looking around uncertainly…while Pei Jinye quickly moved through the crowd to avoid being noticed and saluted.

Since he was already following the Vitality path, consuming this Transcendent grant was like providing him with a little bonus BUFF.

“If I had the same amount of Vitality as Old Chang, plus this Transcendent Ability… then I could strut around Da Peng City with ease.”

“Even Chu Tianye couldn’t take down Old Chang, so I could also make my mark in the whole Central State!”

With that thought in mind.

The smile slowly spread across Pei Jinye’s lips.

“Brother Pei.”

Sun San was leading a patrol and hurried forward to greet Pei Jinye when he saw him.

The people behind him also bowed and nodded towards Pei Jinye.

Pei Jinye looked at Sun San with a somewhat resigned gaze.

In his conception of time, just as he had promoted Sun San, everything was reset to zero once again.

After a brief chat with Sun San, Pei Jinye patted his shoulder and walked away.

Sun San led a group of people, watching him leave.

Before long.

He led his men to an “Old Jin Pawnshop,” looked up at the sign, recalled Pei Jinye’s instructions, and gestured with a wave of his hand, saying, “Seal it!”

…

“Why are you here? Aren’t you training today?” Mother Pei handed the report in her hand to Father Pei, who was bookkeeping beside her.

“I finished early today.” Pei Jinye smiled, looking at the bills on the table, “Don’t you have a helper for these things?”

Mother Pei stood up and said, “It’s just some odd jobs we can manage on our own, no need to waste money on hiring someone.”

Hearing this, Pei Jinye laughed and said, “Didn’t I transfer money to you? Don’t worry about money. If you want to invest, go ahead and invest. If you run short, just tell me.”

Mother Pei sighed and cautioned, “It’s easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult the other way around. Now our family is finally seeing some improvement, and no one is good at investing. We better not act recklessly… Do you forget when your dad followed someone into the stock market when you were in elementary school? He lost an entire house’s worth of money.”

Father Pei immediately laughed dryly, “Ahem, Jinye means well, let’s not dwell on my past mistakes.”

Pei Jinye chuckled and did not say anything more.

When alone with Father Pei, Pei Jinye looked at the map of Da Peng City hanging beside him and seemingly said offhandedly, “The section around Jin Family Ridge seems pretty nice, investing in some real estate wouldn’t be bad.”

Father Pei looked puzzled, “The property prices over there seem okay. Do you have any insider info?”

Pei Jinye said casually, “I heard they might build a commercial center there, but it’s not set in stone yet. Otherwise, property prices around there would soar.”

Father Pei’s interest was piqued.

“Shall we buy two units?”

“Let’s buy two buildings, we can rent them out if we don’t live there…”

“Great idea!”

…

Pei Jinye deliberately leaked some information, allowing Father Pei to dig deeper on his own.

It was not that Pei Jinye did not want to speak directly.

However, by doing so, the elder couple would inevitably feel that he was making mistakes, earning money against his conscience, which would also make them feel uncomfortable.

It was better to let them discover the business opportunities on their own, quietly and unknowingly following the path specified by Pei Jinye. They could make money and gain a sense of achievement.

Pei Jinye watched the elders busy themselves and, suddenly, he felt somewhat sentimental.

“Everything is happening so fast.”

Two months ago, the elders were still selling breakfast on the street, while he sat on a red, simple plastic stool eating a mixed-grain pancake, watching the customers come and go.

Looking at the present, it seemed like a lifetime had passed.

“Will you come back for dinner tonight?”

“I won’t be coming back for dinner these days.”

As Pei Jinye spoke, his cellphone vibrated.

It was a message from the Jiang family.

He glanced down at the message.

It was a letter from the butler, stating that the bandits from Broken Cloud Mountain had already been captured.

Pei Jinye quickly swiped out his attribute panel.

After consuming two Blood Spirit Fruits, his Attribute Points had returned to 20. Continuing the devouring should not pose a big issue.

“If you have things to do, go and take care of them.”

“Then I will take my leave first.”

Pei Jinye waved his hand and then left East Street.

Twenty minutes later.

Deep in the hills behind the Jiang ancestral home.

Jiang Qingcang was dressed in a tight, wide-sleeved black garment with red patterns, and his white inner robe with floral cutouts and turban were particularly striking against the black vest.

With a stern face, he had just come out of the Cultivation Room when the middle-aged butler immediately bowed and approached.

“Master, they are all in the basement.”

“Take me there.”

“Yes, master.”

…

In the basement.

Apart from the lucky one with the Body·Body Shield ability, there were two other Transcendents of the Combat Type. As for the others who were ordinary people, he did not even give them a second look, so they did not even have the qualifications to enter the basement and were silenced by the Black Armor Death Warriors of the Jiang family on the way.

…

The basement door was closed.

Everyone left, standing guard outside.

The trench coat Pei Jinye was wearing was caught by the middle-aged butler, who also stood outside the door.

…

Inside the sound-sealed basement, the lights were bright.

Three burly men, with their hands tied behind their backs and kneeling on the ground, were shivering. The eyes of all three were covered with black cloth, their mouths gagged, unable to make any sound.

Pei Jinye was flipping through the information of the three men in his hand.

The only sound in the quiet room was the flipping of pages.

…

Li Zhisan: Body·Body Shield;

Miao Liming: Instrument·Arrow;

Xianyu Fuyuan: Form·Flexibility;

…

Pei Jinye’s brows furrowed.

Flexibility, what kind of trash was that?

“Pfft!”

A dull thud.

The guy named Xianyu Fuyuan collapsed to the ground.

The two burly men kneeling beside him suddenly trembled violently, making muffled noises with their gagged mouths.

“Stop yelling, no one is coming to save you.”

Pei Jinye placed his hand on Li Zhisan’s head: “Thinking about it, does this count as ridding the people of a menace?”

With a light chuckle.

He tossed the three sheets of paper in his hand aside.

As they scattered in the air.

The two struggling figures suddenly stiffened in place.

Five minutes later.

Pei Jinye let out a deep breath.

Two new Extraordinary Abilities were now strikingly updated on his attribute panel!

Unwittingly, the progress of Devouring First Form had surpassed two-thirds.

He was very much looking forward to what benefits the Second Form of Devouring would bring!

Three corpses were burned to ashes in the roaring flames.

Upon leaving the basement, Pei Jinye gestured grandly… Time for a meat feast! To replenish Vitality!

But those prepared to deal with the aftermath arrived at the basement only to be shocked to find… Where were the bodies?

Seeing the pile of black ash on the ground, everyone felt a chill down their spines.

…

“Master, the Vice President wants to report to you about the work of the past two days…” the middle-aged butler reported.

Pei Jinye chewed slowly on the Spirit Meat in his mouth, and as his mental method operated, his Vitality Value was soaring rapidly.

“Give him ten minutes.”

“Yes, master.”

Not long after.

A middle-aged man walked briskly over.

The man was Jiang Qingcang’s eldest son. He was more reserved than Uncle Jiang Suhu, but walked with a limp.

In the memories of Jiang Qingcang, this now reserved-looking Vice President of the Jiang Empire had once gone to jail as a youth to take the fall for his father.

“Father.”

“Speak,” Pei Jinye replied curtly, with an air of natural authority.

In fact.

Had he been only the person from before his rebirth dealing with such a situation, he would have easily given himself away.

However, after devouring so many Transcendents, it was as if he had experienced a dozen lifetimes. With immense spiritual power under control, he was able to avoid turning into a madman.

“Regarding the promotion of the second phase project in Nanling…” the middle-aged man spoke cautiously. As Jiang Qingcang’s eldest son, he had been held to the highest standards from birth, which had fostered his inherently cautious nature.

What relieved him was that today, he finally had the rare opportunity to see his father, and he was not reprimanded. This made him feel that his efforts were finally paying off.

Ten minutes later, he left the hills smiling, unable to conceal the joy on his face.

Perhaps… his father was truly considering him as a successor!

…

A voice drifted leisurely through the hills.

“A De, another serving of Blood-red Carp.”
